  • 진단검사의학은 신속하고 정확한 체외검사 결과를 제공함으로써 임상의사가 환자를 진료하는 데 도움을 주는 전문 분야이다. 정확한 검사 결과를 제공하기 위해서는 검사에 관련된 모든 요소의 표준화가 필요하다. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI)는 1968년에 표준화를 하는 데에 모두가 동의할 수 있는 공식적인 절차를 마련하기 위해 만들어졌고, 현재까지 임상검사실, 연구용 검사실을 포함한 많은 종류의 검사실 전 분야에 대해서 표준과 지침을 출판하여, 전 세계의 많은 검사실들이 표준화를 위해 이를 이용하고 있다. CLSI의 항생제 감수성 검사 소위원회(AST SC)는 6개의 상설 부서와 필요에 따라 만들어지는 많은 특설 부서로 구성되어 있다. AST SC의 구성원들은 소위원회에 제안된 내용을 검토하여 연 2차례 열리는 회의에서 제안 내용을 반영할지 여부를 결정함으로써 문서의 개정이 이루어진다. 이 회의는 등록한 사람은 누구나 참여할 수 있으므로, 우리 학회원들도 회의에 참여하여 표준 혹은 지침 문서의 생산에 능동적인 역할을 하기를 기대한다.

  • As the concept of sustainability becomes more and more popular, a large amount of literature have been recorded recently on intelligent green building and smart city (IGB&SC). It is therefore needed to systematically analyse the existing knowledge structure as well as the future new development of this domain through the identification of the thematic trends, landmark articles, typical keywords together with co-operative researchers. In this paper, Citespace software package is applied to analyse the citation networks and other relevant data of the past eleven years (from 2006 to 2016) collected from Web of Science (WOS). Through this, a series of professional document analysis are conducted, including the production of core authors, the influence made by the most cited authors, keywords extraction and timezone analysis, hot topics of research, highly cited papers and trends with regard to co-citation analysis, etc. As a result, the development track of the IGB&SC domains is revealed and visualized and the following results reached: (i) in the research area of IGB&SC, the most productive researcher is Winters JV and Caragliu A is most influential on the other hand; (ii) different focuses of IGB&SC research have been emerged continually from 2006 to 2016 e.g. smart growth, sustainability, smart city, big data, etc.; (iii) Hollands's work is identified with the most citations and the emerging trends, as revealed from the bursts analysis in document co-citations, can be concluded as smart growth, the assessment of intelligent green building and smart city.

  • We describe a new approach for building organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which is based on physical lamination (i.e. soft contact lamination (ScL)) of thin metal electrodes supported by an elastomeric layer (polydimethylsiloxane) against an electroluminescent organic. We find that the devices fabricated have much better performance than those constructed with conventional vacuum deposition process. In addition, the ScL is intrinsically compatible with the technique of soft lithograph so that it is easy to build patterned OLEDs with feature sizes into the nanometer regime.

  • We report a study of Zn(S)Se/GaAs heterojunction solar cells grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Zn(S)Se/GaAs heterostructures prepared under different conditions were characterized in-situ by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). Structural and electrical properties were investigated with double crystal X-ray diffraction and current-voltage characteristics, respectively. The fabricated $n-ZnS_{0.07}Se_{0.93}/p-GaAs$ solar cell (SC #2) exhibited open circuit voltage($V_{oc}$) of 0.37 V, short circuit current($I_{sc}$) of $1.7{\times}10^{-2}$ mA, fill factor of 0.62 and conversion efficiency of 7.8 % under 38.5 $mW/cm^2$ illumination.

  • Owing to the notion of a normal adjacency for a digital product in [8], the study of product properties of digital topological properties has been substantially done. To explain a normal adjacency of a digital product more efficiently, the recent paper [22] proposed an S-compatible adjacency of a digital product. Using an S-compatible adjacency of a digital product, we also study product properties of digital topological properties, which improves the presentations of a normal adjacency of a digital product in [8]. Besides, the paper [16] studied the product property of two digital covering maps in terms of the $L_S$- and the $L_C$-property of a digital product which plays an important role in studying digital covering and digital homotopy theory. Further, by using HS- and HC-properties of digital products, the paper [18] studied multiplicative properties of a digital fundamental group. The present paper compares among several kinds of adjacency relations for digital products and proposes their own merits and further, deals with the problem: consider a Cartesian product of two simple closed $k_i$-curves with $l_i$ elements in $Z^{n_i}$, $i{\in}\{1,2\}$ denoted by $SC^{n_1,l_1}_{k_1}{\times}SC^{n_2,l_2}_{k_2}$. Since a normal adjacency for this product and the $L_C$-property are different from each other, the present paper address the problem: for the digital product does it have both a normal k-adjacency of $Z^{n_1+n_2}$ and another adjacency satisfying the $L_C$-property? This research plays an important role in studying product properties of digital topological properties.

  • The first purpose of this study was to evaluate the scavenging capacity (SC) of DPPH and ABTS free radicals for ethanol extract (STR-E) and its active fractions from Sophora tonkinensis root (STR). Four different fractions from STR-E were prepared by using different types of solvents such as chloroform (STR-E-C), ethyl acetate (STR-E-EA), n-butanol (STR-E-B), and water (STR-E-W). STR-E-C showed the highest value of total phenolic content, while STR-E showed the highest value of total flavonoid and terpenoid content. In STR-E and its four fractions, STR-E-EA showed the strongest SC with the lowest SC50 values of the DPPH radicals and ABTS radicals. The second purpose of this study was to evaluate anti-inflammatory activity in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages treated with STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA, respectively. No cytotoxic effect to RAW 264.7 cells was observed at 20 ~ 25 ㎍/ml of STR-E, 10 ㎍/ml of STR-E-C, and 5 ㎍/ml of the STR-E-EA, presenting cell viability values close to that of the untreated control (100%). STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA significantly suppressed the LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) in a dose-dependent manner. Results of reverse-transcription (RT)-qPCR analysis showed that the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, IL-6, and IL-10 were observed in the LPS-stimulated macrophages at 4 h, 2 h, 12 h, 12 h, and 12 h, respectively. The peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 were significantly reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 20 ㎍/ml and 25 ㎍/ml of STR-E, respectively. In the case of IL-10, its peak mRNA level slightly increased without statistical significance. Compared with the LPS-stimulated macrophages, the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 10 ㎍/ml and 20 ㎍/ml of STR-E-C, respectively. In contrast, the peak mRNA level of IL-10 significantly increased at 8 h. Compared with the LPS-stimulated macrophages, the peak mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, iNOS, and IL-6 reduced in the LPS-stimulated macrophages co-treated with 5 ㎍/ml and 10 ㎍/ml of STR-E-EA, respectively. In contrast, the peak mRNA level of IL-10 increased at 4 h. Taken together, our data indicated that STR-E, STR-E-C, and STR-E-EA activate macrophages to secrete both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines.

  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) and glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) have been employed to improve the intestinal development of weaned animals. The goal of this study was to determine whether either exogenous S. cerevisiae or GLP-2 elicits major effects on fecal microbiotas and cytokine responses in weaned piglets. Ninety-six piglets weaned at 26 days were assigned to one of four groups: 1) Basal diet (Control), 2) empty vector-harboring S. cerevisiae (EV-SC), 3) GLP-2-expressing S. cerevisiae (GLP2-SC), and 4) recombinant human GLP-2 (rh-GLP2). At the start of the post-weaning period (day 0), and at day 28, fecal samples were collected to assess the bacterial communities via sequencing the V1-V2 region of the 16S-rRNA gene, and piglets' blood was also sampled to measure cytokine responses (i.e., IL-$1{\beta}$, TNF-${\alpha}$, and IFN-${\gamma}$). This study revealed that, on the one hand, although S. cerevisiae supplementation did not significantly alter the growth of weaned piglets, it induced increases in the relative abundances of two core genera (Ruminococcaceae_norank and Erysipelotrichaceae_norank) and decreases in the relative abundances of two other core genera (Lachnospiraceae_norank and Clostridiale_norank) and cytokine levels (IL-$1{\beta}$ and TNF-${\alpha}$) (p < 0.05, Control vs EV-SC; p < 0.05, rh-GLP2 vs GLP2-SC). On the other hand, GLP-2 supplementation had no significant influence on fecal bacterial communities and cytokine levels, but it produced better body weight and average daily gain (p < 0.05, Control vs EV-SC; p < 0.05, rh-GLP2 vs GLP2-SC). Therefore, altered fecal microbiotas and cytokine response effects in weaned piglets were due to S. cerevisiae rather than GLP-2.

  • 강원도 평창군 도암면에 소재하는 농촌진흥청 고령지 농업시험장에 포장을 설치하여 옥수수와 감자 작부 체계 하에 토양의 토양피복인자 (SC), 내수성 토양 입단함량, 내풍식성 입단함량과 풍식성 인자 (I)를 조사하였다. 토양 침식인자 값 (K)은 실험 처리구의 상부가 하부보다 높았다. SC 값은 식물 잔재물의 양에 따라 다른 값을 보였으며, 0.01~0.84 이었다. 수확 후 식물 잔재물의 지면 피복도 (%)에 따른 SC 부요소 값은 옥수수 재배구에서 0.4~0.8 이며, 감자 재배구에서는 0.4~0.5이었다. 이는 감자 수확 시 잔재물이 옥수수 수확 시 잔재물에 비해 비교적 많이 남기 때문이었다. 시험 포지 토양의 입단함량 범위는 49.7~79.8%이었다 옥수수 재배구 중 화학비료 및 유기질 비료를 시용하고 등고선 경운 방법에 의한 처리구가 입단함량이 가장 높았다. 옥수수 수확 후의 피복도 (%)와 입단 함량 (%)의 관계는 회귀관계식이 성립되며, $r^2$는 0.96 이었다. 옥수수 재배구의 평균 입단함량이 감자 재배 포장의 평균 입단함량보다 다소 낮았다. 시험 포지 토양의 내풍식성 입단함량의 범위는 26.38~56.45% 이었다. 옥수수 재배구의 토양 입단 함량 (%)은 수확 후 잔재물과 유의성이 있었다. 옥수수 재배구 중 화학비료 및 유기질 비료를 시용하고 등고선 경운법에 의한 처리구의 경우 내풍식성 입단 함량은 26.42%로 풍식성 인자를 계산하면 $183Mgha^{-1}$이고, 토양의 휴조도 인자 (K')는 0.52이었다. 이에 따르면, 년 중 기상상태가 풍식이 일어날 수 있는 건조 상태일 경우 최대 풍식 가능량은 1일 $0.5Mgha^{-1}$에 해당하는 양이었다.
