  • In this study, multiparametric flow cytometry (FCM) was installed to enumerate the diagnosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 10145 and Escherichia coli K12 (IFO 3301). The nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) were double stained by a LIVE/DEAD bacLight viability kit, involving green SYTO 9 and red propidium iodide (PI), based on the permeability of two chemicals according to the integrity of plasma membrane. As the results showed, the gate for dead bacteria was defined as the range of $0.2{\times}10^0$ to $6.0{\times}10^1$ photo multiplier tube (PMT) 2 fluorescence (X-axis) and $2.0{\times}10^0$ to $2.0{\times}10^2$ PMT 4 fluorescence (Y-axis), and the gate for live bacteria was defined as the range of $6.0{\times}10^0$ to $6.0{\times}10^2$ PMT 2 fluorescence (X-axis) and $2.0{\times}10^0$ to $4.0{\times}10^2$ PMT 4 fluorescence (Y-axis). In the comparison of the number of the tested bacteria detected by FCM (viability assessment) and plate culture (cultivability assessment), the number of bacteria detected by FCM well represented the number of bacteria that was detected by the colony forming unit (CFU) counting method when bacteria were exposed to isopropyl alcohol and silver/copper cations. Consequently, it is concluded that the application of FCM to monitor the functional effect of disinfectants on the physiological status of target bacteria can offer more rapid and reliable data than the plate culture colony counting method.

  • CsI:Gd crystal was grown by the Bridgeman method and its scintillation properties were investigated. The wavelength peak of the luminescence spectrum for the crystal excited by X-ray was 419 nm. The range of the spectrum was from 300 nm to 800 nm. The spectrum well matched to the quantum efficiency of a typical bi-alkali photo-multiplier tube(PMT). An energy resolution of 48.2 % was obtained for 662 keV ${\gamma}$-rays of $^{137}Cs$. The three decay times were obtained as a fast(557.4 ns, 42.2 %), intermediate (1.78 ${\mu}s$, 29.7 %) and slow (5.43 ${\mu}s$, 28.1 %) components, respectively.

  • In this paper, we propose a wide-range radiation measurement system using GM Tube and NaI(TI) detector. The proposed system is designed as a small module optimized to control and count the detector signal of NaI(Tl) Detector and GM Tube. The radiation dose is measured in a wide-range 0.1uSv/h to 10mSv/h in conjunction with two detectors, and two detectors operate simultaneously at 10uSv/h to 100uSv/h, where the measurement interval overlaps. The radiation dose was selected using a wide-range radiation measurement algorithm that controls the on/off function of the detector in the appropriate interval for the overlapped radiation measurable interval. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, it has been confirmed that the measurement uncertainty of each section is measured as ${\pm}7.5%$ and it operates normally under ${\pm}15%$ of the international standard.

  • Combustion instability analysis of partially premixed model gas turbine combustor was conducted with 1D lumped method. Flame Transfer Function(FTF) was obtained with variation of fuel composition by Photo Multiplier Tube(PMT) and Hot Wire Anemometry(HWA). Decreasing instability frequency was observed when combustor length increased and multi-mode instability was confirmed. Instability frequency mode was changed while $H_2$ composition rate was increased and had agreement with experimental value. This work confirms that prediction of longitudinal combustion instability mode of partially premixed combustor is possible using 1D lumped method.

  • In this study, we describe the feasibility of developing a fiber-optic temperature sensor using a thermochromic material such as 2,4,5-triphenylimidazole or also called Lophine. A sensor-tip is fabricated by mixing of a Lophine powder, which has a non-toxic and hydrophobic characteristics, and an epoxy resin. The temperature change in the sensor-tip gives rise to a change in the optical absorbance of the Lophine, and the transmittance of a light through the Lophine is also changed. We have measured the intensities of modulated lights due to the change of optical absorbance of the Lophine by using of a photo-multiplier tube(PMT). The relationships between the temperatures and the output voltages of PMT are determined to measure the temperature of water. The measurable temperature range of the fiber-optic sensor is from 5 to $30^{\circ}C$.

  • A confocal microscope was developed utilizing a scanning sample stage based on a home-built double-compound flexure guide. A scanning sample stage with nano-scale resolution consisted of a double leaf spring based flexure, a displacement amplifying lever, a Piezo-electric Transducer(PZT) actuator and capacitance sensors. The performance of the two-axis stage was analyzed using a commercial finite element method program prior to the implementation. A single line laser was employed as the light source along with the Photo Multiplier Tube(PMT) that served as the detector. The performance of the developed confocal microscope was evaluated with a mouse ear skin imaging test. The designed scanning stage enabled us to build the confocal microscope without the two optical scanning mirror modules that are essential in the conventional laser scanning confocal microscope. The elimination of the scanning mirror modules makes the optical design of the confocal microscope simpler and more compact than the conventional system.

  • In the ultrasonic dispersion, in order to avoid direct contact of the radiation surface of ultrasonic transducers with a liquid sample, the liquid sample is separated by a glass container and it receives ultrasonic energy through an acoustic medium. The transmission efficiency of the ultrasonic energy in the multi-layered ultrasonic system is an important factor. In this study, we suggested a method that can improve the ultrasonic energy transfer efficiency by using a propylene glycol solution as a liquid matching layer in the multi-layered acoustic system. In this method, a propylene glycol solution was filled between the Langevin-type ultrasonic transducer and the luminol solution and the sonoluminescence phenomena in the luminol solution, which is caused by nonlinear effect of high power ultrasound radiated from the transducer, was examined by using a Photo Multiplier Tube (PMT). The transmission efficiency depending on the concentration of propylene glycol solution was observed, and we can see that as the concentration of the propylene glycol solution increased, the matching effect increased while the acoustic attenuation increased. It was confirmed that there is an optimal concentration compromised these two conflicting conditions, and the optimum concentration of the propylene glycol solution was determined experimentally.

  • An experimental study investigates the flame response characteristics of non-premixed flame and premixed flame. Air was used as the oxidant. Hydrogen($H_2$)/methane($CH_4$) was used as the fuel, and the mixing ratio of the fuel was 50/50%. Flame response characteristics for various velocity perturbations were experimented. The flame images was acquired using the OH fluorescence measurement and the images were digitized using MatLab code. The results of the premixed flame show that flame perturbation increases as the oscillation amplitude increases. As the amplitude increases, the gain value of the flame transfer function is observed to be a linear behavior. The flame length of a nonpremixed flame decreases as the oscillation amplitude increases. Also, it was confirmed that the gain value according to the amplitude behaves nonlinearly.
