Nutritional anemia is an important nutritional problem affecting large population groups in most developing countries. Nutritional anemia is caused by the absence of any dietary essential involed in hemoglobin formation or by poor absorption of these dietary components. The most likely causes are lack of dietary iron, and folate, vitamin $B_{12}$ and high qualify protein. Anemia is considered to be a late mainfeastation of nutritional deficiencies, and even mild anemia is not the earilest sign of such a deficiency. Therefore, the object of therapy is to correct underlying deficiency rather than merely its manifestation. Iron deficiency anemia is generally much the most common form of anemia. And it is very prevalent particularly in pregnant women and young children, especially under five year of life. According to the rapid growth rate of infants, dietary iron should he provided for infants over three months of age in adequate amounts for the synthesis of hemoglobin required by the increasing blood volume and for the demands of newly formed cells. The principal causes of iron deficiency anemia are an inadequate dietary iron content, interference with absorption of iron from the intestine, excessive losses of iron from the body, disturbance of iron metabolism by infection, and social and cultural environments. The present study is planned to obtain informations concerning nutritional anemia through anthropometric and biochemical determinations for the assessment of nutriture in pre-school children. Determination was taken in 226 pre-school children in ruraI arae in 1968, 122 pre-school children in 1970, and 1526 hospitalized pre-school children in 1970. The results of this study are as follows; (1) According to Iowa Malnutrition Borderline (85 percentile) for weight, the proportions of underweighed pre-school boys and girls in rural area were 47.2% and 46.2% in1968, and were 36.1% and 51.8% in 1970. According to Iowa Malnutrition Borderline for height, the proportions of underheight boys and girls in rural area were 30.5% and 33.7%, and were 26.2% and 21.8% in 1970. Malnutrition scores of underweight for height values of boys and girls in rural area were 19.3 and 17.3 in 1968, and the scores of boys and girls were 15.6 and 15.5 in 1970. (2) The mean hemoglobin values of boys and girls in rural area were $11.2{\pm}1.8g/100ml\;and\;11.4{\pm}1.6g/100ml$ in 1968. In 1970, the mean values of boys and girls in rural area were $11.3{\pm}1.3g/100ml\;and\;11.7{\pm}2.4g/100ml$. The mean hemoglobin values of hospitalized boys and girls were $11.9{\pm}2.2g/100ml\;and\;11.7{\pm}2.4g/100ml$ in 1970. It is found that 92 of 215 children (42.7%) in rural area had concentrations of hemoglobin less than 11.0g/100ml in 1968. In 1970, 55 of 121 children (45.4%) in rural area and 559 of 1526 hospitalized children (36.6%) had concentrations of hemoglobin less than 11.0g/100ml. (3) The mean hematocrit levels of hospitalized boys and girls were $35{\pm}26.8%\;and\;35.4{\pm}6.4%$ in 1970. And 443 of 1334 hospitalized children (33.2%) had hematocrit values below 33%. (4) The average mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration levels of hospitalized boys and girls were $32.4{\pm}2.2\;and\;32.3{\pm}2.2$ in 1970. And 1016 of 1352 hospitalized children (75.1%) had the mean corpuscular hemoglobin values below 34. (5) The mean iron values of young children in rural area and hospitalized children were $62.0{\pm}6.3{\mu}g/100ml\;and\;60.7{\pm}22.8{\mu}g/100ml$. The proportions of anemia cases below $50{\mu}g/100ml$ in rural area was 37.9%, and 34.3% in hospitalized children. (6) The mean total iron binding capacity of young children in rural area was $376{\pm}57.88{\mu}g/100ml,\;and\;342.2{\pm}6.15{\mu}g/100ml$ in hospitalized children. (7) The average transferrin saturation percentage of young children in rural area was $16.9{\pm}4.7%,\;and\;18.0{\pm}8.4%$ in hospitalized children. The proportions of anemia cases below 15% of young chi1dren in rural area and hospitalized children were 48.3% and 41.2%. Therefore, authors wish to recommend that the following further studies should be undertaken: (1) Standardization of simplied laboratory examination of nutritional anemia. (2) The prevalence of nutritional anemia and the requirements of iron, folate, and vitamin $B_{12}$ of pre-school children. (3) The content and absorption of iron in Korean food. (4) The pathogenesis of nutritional anemia and prevention of parasitic disease. (5) Maternal health and nutrition education.

This study was carried out for the objectives to collect the basic informations on the health behaviors of the elementary school children in an urban area in Korea. Seven hundred students were drawn to fill in the designed questionnaire which carries variety of Questions on health re-lated behaviors in general, eating habits, disease history, mental health, and sex education. Questionnaire were filled in by their parents. Major findings are as follows: ① 55.7% had habits of washing the hands before eating whereas 59.8% trashing their hands after toilet. The others had no idea of washing hands before eating and after toilet. ② 26,5% had habits of brushing the teeth twice a day 54.7% only once in the morning, and 2.6% once only in the evening. Thus, the idea of prevention from decayed teeth seems to be lacking among the school children. ③ Bathing habits were also inquired to get 40.3% of bathing more than once a week, 43.1% once every two weeks, and the rest of 16.6% once every one to three months. ④ 41.7% keep the regular bedding time whereas 58.3% irregular. Physical exercises were con-ducted by 76.6% on the ground while 23.5% did not practice any physical exercises at all. Of those physical exercises, rope skipping occupied 37.5%, and the other 66.9% consisted of 14 different kinds of individual type physical exercises such as gymnastic exercise. The main reasons for not enjoying exercises were different by sex; boys largely complained the inadequacy and lack of gymnastic facilities and girls felt in short of friends who could join the exercises. ⑤ 31.9% of the school children had been taking not much of food while 28.3% had unbalanced diets. Of these unbalanced diets, meat occupied 33.2% to be the priority to have an order of the following items such as vegetables, bread or noodle, and fishes as next to each. For eating habits, 88.5% take simple snack such as bread (38.4%, cookies, fruits, and candies in order. 25.8% of the children were provided such snacks or their parents regularly. Breakfast was sufficiently taken by 45.0% whereas 8.4% had never sufficiently. As to the lunch, 63.6% had sufficiently while 16.8% insufficiently. 70.6% take breakfast with all family members together and 30.4% separately. Correlation of sufficient taking of breakfast and eating together of tile family member's seems to be significant when we compare 72.5% of sufficient takers who enjoy breakfast together with the family members with 55.6% of insufficient takers who enjoy it with the family. This finding allows the investigator to point out the importance of table circumstances for children's eating. ⑥ The most common disease was catching a cold (38.8%), and the second was stomach trouble to be followed by the frequency of car sickness, headache, and skin infection. Doctors are consulted only by 23.9% when they are sick whereas 59.7% resorted to the drug stores. The lower the educational attainment of the parents, the lower the rate of visiting clinics. ⑦ 36.7% of their parents pointed out the problems of personality guidance as the most difficult thing at home 71.3% of their parents worried about and unsatisfied with their children's personality traits. Of these complains of the parents, impatience stood at the top to be tabulated at 24.1%, and 21.1% indicated narrow-mindedness. In line with this primary socialization at home, the most crucial problem seems to be related with the lack or recognition of the parents'own role when we find only 43.1% of the parents understood the importance of their own role for the home education of children; the latter group attributed tile responsibility of personality formation to the children themselves. ⑧ As to the sex educational aspects, 30.9% of children have ever asked about the physiology of reproduction or sexual matters to their parents, of those parents only 17.0% could give the constructive responses to the inquiries of the children. In companies on with these data, 25.6% recognized their own role in sex education for their own children while the large segments of the parents (51.1%) attributed the responsibility of sex education to tile low level of 38.3% who recognized the importance of sex education in the school curriculum and 25.1% of the parents insisted to wait until they get to know naturally about sex. 38.1% of the parents said they had some knowledge on sex from books while 16.9% through mass media. The next groups had common senses of sex from their own parents, school friends and other sources.

As it has been known recently that anisakis type larvae harbouring in marine fishes are a causal agent of zoonosis to human and probably to land living mammal animals, attention was focused on the study on the larvae in an aspect of epidemiology or epizootiology. The present work was conducted from 1966 to 1975 for i) survey on the harbouring status of anisakis type larvae in marine fishes of this country, ii) observation on the response to the experimental infestation of the larvae to the pigs, in the reason that they could well fetid raw fish viscera occasionally containing the larvae as a high protein source of swine food, and iii) observation on the larval resistance and response to vermicidal agents for the purpose of prevention of the larval infection to the mammal animals. The data obtained in the studies were summarized as follows: 1. In the survey on the status of larvae harbouring in main species of marine fishes of this country, 15 species, a total of 1,940 fishes, were observed and the result was summarized in table 2. Average number of larvae, in upper rank of 5 out of all 15 species of fishes, were as highest as 156 larvae ranging 74 to 450 in Pseudosciaena manchurica (chamjogi), 54.5 ranging 15 to 240 in Trichiurus haumela (kalchi), 35.6 ranging 8 to 112 in Trachurus japonica (junggengi), 30.6 ranging 4 to 65 in Parapristipama trilineatum (benjari) and 20.5 ranging 3 to 48 in Nibea argentata (boguchi) respectively. In morphological observation, size of the larvae in the fishes were varied, ranging from 2 to 32mm long, and a tendency to larger size and number of larvae in the fishes, which were wider sea migration, higher age and lager bodily size, was observed The favorite places harbouring the larvae in fishes were mainly around the intraperitoneal viscera such as mesentery, omentum, liver, pyloric suspensory, fat tissue and cloaca, and rarely in body muscles of fish. Fishes heartily infested with the larvae showed stunted growth decreased egg formation and severe damage of liver. 2. In the experimental infestation of the larvae to normal pigs, as illustrated in table 3, a group with large dose of larvae (a total of 1,800 larvae, 300 larvae Per dose, twice in a dart for 3 days) showed acute clinical syndrome terminatine death with a week course, whereas two groups with less dose of larvae (a total of 180~360 larvae, 10 larvae per dose, at 5 days interval for 70~180 days) showed subclinical syndrome with remarkably stunted growth as. much as approximately one half of body size in contest to the control pigs. In the pathological findings, a group with large dose of larvae showed macroscopically larvae penetrating to the gastric wall with severe gastroenteritis, and histopathologically various acute lesions caused by active larvae penetration into the wall of stomach and interstine, whereas two groups with less dose of larvae showed chronic lesions such as hypertrophy and verminous granulomatous swelling of gastric wall, suggesting strongly the possibility of natural infestation of larvae to swine. 3. In the resistance of the larvae to the chemical solutions, the larvae tolerated for 2 days in 15 percent solution of sodium chloride and acetic acid, and for 7 days in 70 percent solution of ethyl alcohol. In the resistance to the temperature, the larvae died within 1 second at $62^{\circ}C$ and tolerated for 24 hours at $-3^{\circ}C$, 12 hours $-5^{\circ}C$ respectively. 4. For the experiment on the vermicidal effect to larvae, general vermicidal drugs such as Neguvon, Combantrin, antimony Potassium, piperazine adipate and piperazine dihydrochloride, oxidizer such as potassium permanganate and potassium chlorate, and dyes such as gentian violet and crystal violet were used, and among them, as illustrated in table 6, potassium permanganate was proved as the best. In the successive test for the practical use of potassium permanganate, vermicidal effect in seawater solution of potassium permanganate and common-water solution of potassium permanganate were compared, and then retested by dipping the fish viscera including the larvae into the two different solutions of potassium permanganate. The result through these tests indicated that 0.01 percent common water and sea-water solution of potassium permanganate could be apparently recommended as a preventive vermicidal solution, having 90 to 100 percent vermicidal effect by dipping for 12 to 24 hours even though sea-water solution of potassium permanganate had a tendency to slightly less effect than the common-water solution of potassium permanganate (Table 8).

The traditional application of night soil to vegetable gardens and rice paddies results in a most wide spread condition of parasitism, with a variety of helminths found in Korea. In addition to the above fact, the peculiar habit of the consumption of raw vegetables, fish, crustaceans and mammals provides a means of infestations of helminths. During the last sixty years numerous reports were found on the prevalence of helminths amongst the Korean population in different parts of the country, and it was generally recognized that ascariasis, hookworm disease, filariasis, clonorchiasis and paragonimiasis constitute the important helminthic disease in Korea. In practical measures of parasite control activities the main measures are summarized as mass-treatment, night-soil disposal and transmission control. Among the three, the mass-treatment has been commonly applied, however, no reduction of transmission has been obtained by treatment of a population. Therefore, the ultimate eradication of parasites will depend upon the application of comprehensive environmental sanitation measures. The basic environmental measures will be concerned with (a) the safe disposal of human excreta, (b) the provision of adequate and safe water supplies in such a way as to promote a higher standard of personal hygiene in the population, and (c) the prevention of food contamination by faecal material. Additional environmental measures will deal with the improvement of housing and housing hygiene and with general community development. Community development means social and cultural as well as economic development. The control measures on the parasitic endemic diseases, such as clonorchiasis and paragonimiasis are the good examples for community health development in Korea. The control of Clonorchis and Paragonimus infections are theoretically very simple, as the infection can only invade the human body by way of encysted metacercaria which are taken into the body when eating passive intermediate hosts(fishes, crabs and crayfishes). Although prophylactic measures in the case of the infections deal with above merely consist the fishes in cooking or submerging in hot water before eating them, it is exceedingly difficult to carry out such simple measures in face of century old traditions, to which the relatively primitive population clings with great tenacity. There is no one universally applicable method of control. The choice of methods must be dictated by the nature of the environment. the habit and custom of the people. the pattern of transmission and the resources of the country. There must exist a well organized public health infrastructure. Since a control programme is of necessity on a longterm basis and continuity in its implementation is essential. An investigation should be made on the prevalence of the diseases and its relationships to irrigation engineering, freshwater ecology, agricultural methods, hydro-electric schemes, and the development of communities in affected areas. In conclusion, however. the control of clonorchiasis and paragonimiasis in Korea is not an impossible task. A combination of efforts with major emphasis on health education and mass chemotherapy coupled with governmental aid in enforcing legislative public health measures could reduce the diseases. Health education in particular attempts following four things: (a) It supplies a person with enough general knowledge about a disease to make the preventive measures. (b) It makes a person feel sufficiently about the importance of his own health to make him alter his behavior and adopt these preventive measure. (c) It makes him concerned for the health others. (d) It tries to make him feel so strongly about the first three that be supports and even initiates preventive action by the community. Educational efforts should be directed primarily toward school children because it is during the early years that most persons become infected, and also because children are less entrenched in their food habits so that, the educational process should be involved at various levels in successive changes of knowledge, attitude, beha viour, habit and custom of their lives. The most parasitic endemic diseases are related to community diseases. In caring for a sick community. the first stage is to gather epidemiological data, the next is to make inferences from it-to make the community diagnosis. The third is to prescribe community treatment or community health action part of a community health action programme. The community health action is the sum of the steps decided upon to remedy the critical features revealed by the community diagnosis. Action takes various forms; health education is the most important.

본 연구는 국내 산란계 동물복지 인증농가의 사육형태(무창, 개방, 방사)와 품종별(Hy-Line, Lohmann) 생산성과 질병발생에 대한 기초자료를 수집하기 위해 수행하였다. 초산일령은 무창 151일, 개방과 방사형 계사에서 각각 141일령이었으며, 각 계사의 산란피크는 91.8%, 92.9% 및 86.3%이었다. 사육형태에 따른 18~37주령 산란율은 무창, 개방, 방사에서 각각 70.9%, 77.4% 및 65.6%였으며, 32~36주령 산란율은 91.9%, 90.1% 및 76.2%였다. 평균 오 파란율은 무창, 개방, 방사형 계사에서 각각 2.84%, 1.15% 및 0.23%로 나타났다. 개방계사의 폐사율이 다른 사육형태에 비해 낮았다. Hy-Line의 초산일령은 155일, Lohmanndms 157일이었으며, 산란피크는 각각 92.9%(252일)와 97.2%(237일)이었다. 품종에 따른 평균 산란율은 Hy-Line 83.7%, Lohmann 76.9%였다. Hy-Line의 폐사율은 Lohmann종에 비해 낮게 나타났다. 난중, Haugh unit 및 난황색은 방사형 계사에서 유의적인 차이를 보였다(P<0.05). ND의 항체역가는 개방계사에서 낮았으며, IB와 APV의 항체역가는 3농가 모두 높게 나타났다. SG, SE, SP, FAdV 및 ILT는 사육형태에 따른 세 농가에서 검출되지 않았다. 국내 산란계 동물복지 인증농가는 증가하는 반면 산란계 동물복지 인증농가의 사육형태에 따른 자료들은 매우 부족하다. 따라서 본 연구는 산란계 동물복지 인증농가의 사육형태별 생산성 및 질병발생에 대해 분석한 자료이며, 향후 국내 동물복지 인증을 받은 산란계 농장의 생산성 향상 및 질병예방을 위한 기초자료로서 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

지리정보시스템(Geographic Information System: 이하 GIS)은 고병원성조류인플루엔자(Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza: 이하 HPAI)의 예찰, 역학조사, 감염농장 관리, 예방적 살처분 실시, 청정화 진행 등 질병관리를 위한 전 과정에서 공간 위치정보의 관리와 표현 그리고 의사결정을 위한 도구로 활용될 수 있다. 우리나라에서도 2010-2011년 구제역 발생으로 큰 피해를 본 이후, GIS와 연계된 국가동물방역통합시스템(Korea Animal Health Integrated System: 이하 KAHIS)를 구축하여 가축전염병 관리를 시행하고 있다. 그러나 농장 및 축산관련 시설과 차량에 대한 관리 및 모니터링 수준의 KAHIS 방역통합시스템은 HPAI 예찰 및 방역에 역부족이다. 따라서 KAHIS시스템과 더불어 효율적 가축질병(HPAI) 관리를 위하여 본 연구를 실시하였다. 본 연구에서는 2014년 기준 HPAI 감염농장의 특성을 바탕으로 차후 HPAI 감염 가능 농장을 예측하였다. HPAI 감염농장 특징 분석을 위하여 권역별 HPAI-양성농장의 개수와 밀도 및 가금사육 두수를 조사하였다. 조사결과 HPAI-양성농장의 82.4%가 전라지역과 충청지역에 분포하고 있었다. 위 두 지역에 위치한 HPAI-양성농장(충청지역: $4.2{\pm}5.6$, 전라지역: $2.2{\pm}1.1$)은 HPAI-음성농장(충청지역: $1.8{\pm}1.5$, 전라지역: $1.7{\pm}0.7$)에 비하여 통계적으로 높은 밀도값을 보여주었다. 또한 HPAI-양성농장의 92.4%에서 가금두수 최소 6,537에서 최대 24,250를 사육하고 있었다. 위의 HPAI 감염농장 특징은 GIS Multiple Ring Butter(MRB) 기능을 이용하여 차후 HPAI 감염 가능 농장을 예측하는데 사용되었다. 분석결과 철새도래지 반경 30km(386개)와 35km(407개) 내 위치한 HPAI-양성농장의 수는 HPAI 확산 후 전국 감염농장(429개)과 유사한 값을 보여주었다. 또한 철새도래지 반경 30km 내 위치한 일반가금농장 중 하천 반경 1-1.5km와 지방도로 반경 1km에 중첩되는 지역에 위치한 일반가금농장의 개수(324-409개) 및 지리적 위치는 2014년 HPAI-양성농장의 개수(386개)와 90.0% 그리고 지리적 위치와 54.8%의 유사성을 보였다. 본 연구는 철새도래지의 위치정보와 가금농장의 위치 및 사육가금두수의 정보를 토대로 GIS분석을 통하여 앞으로 발생할 HPAI 발생농장에 대한 추이를 판단할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

목 적 : 바이러스는 소아 하기도 감염증의 가장 흔한 원인으로 소아에서 흔히 이환되어 모세기관지염, 폐렴, 크룹, 기관 기관지염 등의 하기도 감염을 일으키는 원인 바이러스들의 유행 및 임상 양상을 조사하기 위해 본 연구를 시작하였다. 방 법 : 1998년 9월부터 2002년 8월까지 한림대학교 한강성심병원 소아과에 급성 호흡기 감염증으로 입원했던 환아 중 총 913례에서 비인두 흡인물을 채취하여 바이러스 배양 및 단일 클론 항체를 이용한 면역 형광 검사법으로 251례(27%)에서 호흡기바이러스가 분리되었다. 그 중 모세기관지염, 폐렴, 크룹, 기관 기관지염 등의 급성 하기도 감염증으로 진단 받은 208례의 의무기록을 후향적으로 고찰하였다. 결 과 : 1) RSV가 122례(58%)로 가장 많았고, PIV 30례(14%), INFB 21례(11%), INFA 20례(10%), ADV 15례(7%) 순이었다. 2) 발생시기는 RSV의 경우 1998년 12월과 1999년 11월에 많이 발생하였다. PIV는 연중 비슷하였고, INFA는 1999년 3월과 2000년 1월에 많이 검출되었다. INFB는 2002년 4월에 많이 발생하였고, ADV는 2000년을 제외하고는 연중 비슷하게 검출되었다. 3) 남녀 성별비는 1.8 : 1로 남아가 더 많았고, 중앙연령은 10개월이었다. 4) 임상적 진단에는 세기관지염 88례(43%), 폐렴 87례(42%), 크룹19례(9%), 기관 기관지염 14례(6%)의 순이었고, RSV의 경우 세기관지염이 70례(58%)였다. 5) 임상증상 및 징후에는 각 바이러스 모두 기침(93%), 비루(83%), 가래(74%), 발열(56%)이 많았고, ADV의 경우 발열(89%), 호흡곤란(56%)이 다른 바이러스에 비해서 높았다. 6) 청진 소견으로 천명음이 들렸던 경우는 RSV가 69%, INFA가 45%로 많았고, 건성수포음은 PIV가 52%, INFB가 38%로 많았으며 수포음은 ADV에서 89%로 높았다. 7) 말초 혈액 백혈구 수는 전체 59%에서 정상이었고, 39%에서 증가하였다. 적혈구 침강 속도는 73%에서 증가하였고, C 반응 단백은 21%에서 양성이었다. 8) 방사선 소견은 고찰이 가능하였던 206례 중 각 바이러스 모두 정상 소견이 가장 많았고, 과팽창은 RSV에서 많았다. 폐문 부위 기관지 침윤과 폐경화는 ADV에서 많았고, 하인두 확장은 PIV에서 현저하게 많았으며, 그 외 무기폐 소견도 있었다. 결 론 : 소아에서 급성 하기도 감염증의 중요한 원인을 차지하는 호흡기 바이러스는 각각 발생시기 및 유행양상이 다르고 임상 양상에서도 차이를 보였으나, 이에 더욱 많은 보고와 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 본다.

최근 치과계에는 교차감염의 문제가 점차 대두되고 있으며, 그 감염경로에는 혈액이나 구강 분비물을 통한 직접접촉과 진료실 장비 등에 의한 간접접촉이 있다. 또한 병원 등 한정된 공간 내에 많은 인원이 수용된 환경에서는 공기 중을 떠다니는 오염물질에 의한 공기 감염에 보다 많은 관심이 모아지고 있으며, 치과 진료실에서는 고속회전 핸드피스에서 발생하는 분무에 의한 감염이 가장 우려되고 있는 상황이다.따라서 본 실험에서는 치과 진료실 내 핸드피스 분무에 의한 공기 중 세균 감염 위험성을 파악하고 실제 진료 시, 감염 방지에 도움을 주는데 그 목적을 두었으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 핸드피스를 사용해 진료한 군 97.4 cfu, 핸드피스를 사용하지 않고 진료한 군 5.6 cfu로 핸드피스를 사용해서 진료한 군에서 박테리아 군집의 수가 높게 나타났으며 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(P<0.01). 2. 핸드피스 사용 시 러버댐을 같이 사용한 진료는 22.4 cfu로 러버댐을 사용하지 않고 진료하는 경우보다 박테리아 군집의 수가 낮게 나타났으며,통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(P<0.01).3. 핸드피스 물 공급원으로 관주용액을 사용한 경우와 증류수를 사용한 경우를 비교 시 관주용액을 사용한 경우 cfu는 22.4 cfu, 증류수의 경우 17.0 cfu로 측정되었으나, 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. (P>0.05). 4. 핸드피스를 사용해 진료하는 경우, 0.5m와 1.5m 거리에서 측정 시 97.4cfu와 22.0 cfu로 0.5m 거리에서 박테리아 군집의 수가 높게 나타났으며 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(P<0.01). 또한 원거리에서도 핸드피스 분무에 의해 박테리아가 검출되었다. 5. 박테리아균을 분류한 결과 그램양성 구균의 수가 73.9%로 가장 많은 비중을 보였고, 그램음성 구균, 그램음성 간균, 그램양성 간균의 순이었다.
