In this study, gut bacterial communities in xylophagous insects were analyzed using the pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes for their potential biotechnological applications in lignocelluloses degradation. The result showed that operational taxonomic units (OTUs), species richness and diversity index were higher in the hindgut than in the midgut of all insect samples analyzed. The dominant phyla or classes were Firmicutes (54.0%), Bacteroidetes (14.5%), ${\gamma}-Proteobacteria$ (12.3%) in all xylophagous insects except for Rhinotermitidae. The principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) showed that the bacterial community structure mostly clustered according to phylogeny of hosts rather than their habitats. In our study, the two carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)-degrading isolates which showed the highest enzyme activity were most closely related to Bacillus toyonensis $BCT-7112^T$ and Lactococcus lactis subsp. hordniae $NCDO\;2181^T$, respectively. Cellulolytic enzyme activity analysis showed that ${\beta}-1,4-glucosidase$, ${\beta}-1,4-endoglucanase$ and ${\beta}-1,4-xylanase$ were higher in the hindgut of Cerambycidae. The results demonstrate that xylophagous insect guts harbor diverse gut bacteria, including valuable cellulolytic bacteria, which could be used for various biotechnological applications.

비침습적 뇌자극기술과 법적 규제 - TMS와 tDCS기술을 이용한 기기를 중심으로 -

최민영,Choi, Min-Young 대한의료법학회 2020 의료법학 Vol.21 No.2

TMS and tDCS are non-invasive devices that treat the diseases of patients or individual users, and manage or improve their health by applying stimulation to a brain through magnetism and electricity. The effect and safety of these devices have proved to be valid in several diseases, but research in this area is still much going on. Despite increasing cases of their application, legislations directly regulating TMS and tDCS are hard to find. Legal regulation regarding TMS and tDCS in the United States, Germany and Japan reveals that while TMS has been approved as a medical device with a moderate risk, tDCS has not yet earned approval as a medical device. However, the recent FDA guidance, European MDR changes, recalls in the US, and relevant legal provisions of Germany and Japan, as well as recommendations from expert groups all show signs of tDCS growing closer to getting approved as a medical device. Of course, safety and efficacy of tDCS can still be regulated as a general product instead of as a medical device. Considering multiple potential impacts on a human brain, however, the need for independent regulation is urgent. South Korea also lacks legal provisions explicitly regulating TMS and tDCS, but they fall into the category of the grade 3 medical devices according to the notifications of the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. And safety and efficacy of TMS are to be evaluated in compliance with the US FDA guidance. But no specific guidelines exist for tDCS yet. Given that tDCS devices are used in some hospitals in reality, and also at home by individual buyers, such a regulatory gap must quickly be addressed. In a longer term, legal system needs to be in place capable of independently regulating non-invasive brain stimulating devices.

This research has its goal on finding out the relationship between young adult christians`` religiosity and their obsessive-compulsive symptoms by comparing the average differences of obsessive beliefs, OCD symptoms, and their scrupulosity. A total of 282 young adults participated in the study. The 282 participants were devided into non- Christians and Christians. We further divided the Christians into 3 subgroups according to their self-reported levels of religious faith and activities. ANOVA was used to determine whether there were statistically significant differences among the 4 groups in their obsessive beliefs, OCD symptoms, and scrupulosity. The result revealed the following: Compared to other groups, the ‘low religious’ group showed meaningful differences in ‘importance of thinking’ with the low religious group exhibiting higher average scores. With regards to OCD symptoms, ‘highly religious’ group showed meaningful differences in ‘obsessing’ compared to other groups, with highly religious groups exhibiting higher average scores. Third, there were meaningful differences between the Christians and non-Christians in their averages of scrupulosity: specifically in ``fear of sin,`` ``fear of God,`` and the total score of PIOS . The results of this study show that young adult Christians did not differ from non-Christians except in ‘importance of thinking’, ‘obsessing’ and ‘scrupulosity.’ Based on these results, it can be inferred that religion is not directly related obsessive beliefs or OCD symptoms even when these symptoms are related to religious content.

생명보호 법정책의 현재

최민영(Min-Young Choi) 이화여자대학교 생명의료법연구소 2024 Asia Pacific Journal of Health Law & Ethics Vol.17 No.2

본 글은 2000년 전후로 지난 25여 년간 한국의 법과 정책이 생명을 어떻게 보호했는지를 정리하고 조명하는 의미가 있다. 각 생명 영역, 즉 배아, 태아, 영아, 자살, 안락사, 장기이식에서볼 수 있는 25여 년간 한국의 법제, 판례, 학문적 연구 성과들을 개괄적으로 논의함으로써 생명보호에 있어 괄목할 만한 변화와 성장을 보인 법정책의 시의성을 복원하고자 한다. 이를 위해서우선, 생명보호를 둘러싼 논쟁의 구도를 확인하고, 2000년 이후로 한국 사회에서 가장 중요한 생명 관련 입법이었던 생명윤리법의 발달사와 제정배경을 간략하게 개관한 이후, 각각의 생명보호영역에서의 입법논의, 중요판례, 학문적 연구 성과들을 정리한다. 결론적으로, 우리 법정책은 각생명 관련 영역에서 그동안 완전한 금지도, 완전한 허용도 아닌 견해를 밝혀왔다. 즉, 기본적으로각 생명이 보호되어야 한다는 원칙을 견지하고 있지만, 때에 따라서는 이에 대해 유연한 태도를보이기도 한다. 생명보호의 문제는 개인의 가치관의 차이와 다양한 이해관계에 따라 첨예한 갈등이 수반되는 만큼, 구성원 간의 합의 도출을 위한 절차의 마련이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 덧붙여서생명보호와 관련된 법정책적 논의에는 우리 문화에 고유한 논쟁의 요소가 보이는 만큼, 다양한현실의 층위를 고려한 정책적 결단도 요구된다. This article intends to organize and shed light on how Korean laws and policies have protected life over the past 25 years since around 2000. By broadly discussing 25 years of Korean legislation, precedents, and academic research results in each area of life, that is, embryos, fetuses, infants, suicide, euthanasia, and organ transplantation, we seek to restore the timeliness of the legal policy. To this end, we first confirm the structure of the debate surrounding life protection, briefly overview the development history and enactment background of the Bioethics Act, which has been the most important life-related legislation in Korean society since 2000. Then we introduce and summarize legislation discussions, important precedents, and academic research results in each area of life protection. In conclusion, our legal policy has taken a position of neither complete prohibition nor complete permission in each life-related area. In other words, it basically adheres to the principle that each life must be protected, but in some cases it shows a flexible attitude toward this. As the issue of life protection involves sharp conflicts due to differences in individual values and various interests, it is most important to establish procedures for reaching agreement among society members. In addition, as legal policy discussions related to life protection show elements of controversy unique to our culture, policy decisions that take into account various layers of reality are also required.

간통죄 규정을 통해 본 문화적 정체성 보호와 형법

Criminal interest in the modern criminal law is based on the liberalistic criminal interest. However, it is recently doubtful, whether the conception of criminal interest is useful for argumentation of criminal policy. The intention of this paper is to show the limitation of criminal interest and to build relationship between cultural identity and criminal prohibition through adultery. The culture at this paper means a culture as specific and multiple conception, neither universal civilization nor culture as an art. Discussion about cultural identity and criminal law begins from such a culture. Criminal interest of adultery are sexual morality, marriage system based on monogamy and sexual sincerity duty between married couples. It is discussed around three criminal interests, whether adultery should be maintained or abolished. This discussion concludes that adultery in criminal law cannot be explained clearly through the liberalistic criminal interest. Instead, the adultery can be understood as the cultural provision, through that the marriage system based on gender equality is protected. Here, this argumentation returns to the relationship between criminal law and morality, for the adultery is connected with the major culture. This core morality acquires legal legitimacy from objective constitutional order. The adultery obtains the criminal legitimacy from objective order of basic rights that guarantee marriage system and gender equality as well.
