  • Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen inducing listeriosis in human. We compared two different culture methods for detection of L. monocytogenes and validated two commercial kits, $VIDAS^{(R)}$ and $REVEAL^{(R)}$ for Listeria. L. monocytogenes was inoculated into various food samples to generate partial positive samples. The inoculated samples were enriched in half-Fraser broth for 48 hr at $30^{\circ}C$. The enriched samples were streaked onto Oxford agar at 24 and 48 hr postincubation followed by biochemical confirmation and concurrently analyzed by using the two commercial kits for comparison. When the enrichment period was extended from 24 to 48 hr, the numbers of positive samples were dramatically increased from 6 to 52 out of 80 samples tested using the culture method. With the commercial kits, the numbers of positive samples were also significantly increased from 10 to 18 and 1 to 18, respectively, when the enrichment period was extended from 48 to 72 hr. There was no statistical difference between the 24 hr culture method and $VIDAS^{(R)}$ or $Reveal^{(R)}$ with 48 hr enrichment. In conclusion, the 24 hr for the culture method was insufficient to detect L. monocytogenes in various foods. The commercial kits could be adequate means for presumptive screening of L. monocytogenes in food.

  • This experiment was conducted to investigate the distribution and burden characteristics of heavy metals in the rainwater sampled at Suwon area, in the middle part of Korea, from April 2002 to October 2003. The relationship between concentration of heavy metal and other chemical properties in the rainwater was also evaluated. Chemical properties in the rainwater were various differences with raining periods and years. It appeared that a weighted average pH of rainwater was ranged from 4.7 to 5.5. Heavy metal concentrations in the rainwater were ranked as Zn>Pb>Cu>Ni>Cr>As>Cd. As compared with heavy metal concentrations of rainwater in 2002, Cd, Cu and As were higher than other element in 2003. There were positive correlation between major ionic components, such as Ca, Mg, and K, and heavy metal concentrations of rainwater, and As, CU, Cu, Zn and Ni were relatively higher relationship than Pb and Cr in respective to correlation coefficient. For heavy metal distribution of rainwater, the order of average enrichment factors was Cd>Pb>AS>Cu>Zn>Ni>Cr, and these were relatively higher than the natural component such as Fe, Mg and Ca. The monthly enrichment factors were relatively high in the spring (from April to May) at Suwon. The monthly amount of heavy metal precipitation was high in the rainy season from June to August because of great influence of rainfall.

The influences of spousal support and work-family spillover on work-life balance in dual-earner couples with children: Testing actor and partner effects (맞벌이부부의 배우자 지지, 직장 지지 및 일-가족 전이가 일-생활 균형에 미치는 자기효과와 상대방효과)

  • The purpose of this study was to find out the actor effect and the partner effect in relation to spousal support, job support, work-family spillover, and work-life balance in dual-earner couples. The subjects of this study were 176 dual-earner couple, whose youngest children are under the age of 16 and who work over 15 hours each week. The research tool was a questionnaires. Factor analysis, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, correlation analysis, and APIM were performed for the data analysis. The main results of this study as follows. First, for both wives and husbands, perceived spousal support had a positive actor effect on work-life balance. However, perceived husband's spouse support for wife's support had positive partner effect on the wife's work-life balance, the wife's perceived spousal support for her husband' did not have a partner actor effect on the husband's work-life balance. Second, for both wives and husbands, job support had a positive actor effect on work-life balance. In addition, the wife's job support had a positive partner effect on the husband's work-life balance, however, the husband's job support did not have a partner actor effect on the wife's work-life balance. Third, for both wives and husbands, work-family conflict had a negative actor effect on work-life balance. In addition, the wife's work-family conflict had a negative partner effect on the husband's work-life balance, however, the husband's work-family conflict did not have a partner actor effect on the wife's work-life balance. Fourth, for both wives and husbands, work-family enrichment had a positive actor effect on work-life balance. In addition, the husband's work-family enrichment had a positive partner effect on the wife's work-life balance, however, the wife's work-family enrichment did not have a partner actor effect on the husband's work-life balance.
