Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for measuring airborne microorganisms in real time using a microorganism lysis system and ATP bioluminescence, the method including sampling the airborne microorganisms in a particle classification device to which an ATP-reactive luminescent agent is applied and, at the same time, lysing the microorganisms in a microorganism lysis system under continuous operation to extract adenosine triphosphate (ATP) of the microorganisms sampled in the particle classification device, thus inducing a luminescent reaction between the ATP-reactive luminescent agent and the ATP of the particle classification device in real time; and measuring the concentration of microorganisms using a light receiving device. According to the detection method using ATP organism illumination, the floating microorganisms in the gas phase can be readily detected and the detection can be automatically conducted in real time without manual labor.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel heteroaryl compounds having a pyrimidine-containing core that is linked to a 4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl group via an amine linker. Such compounds are useful for the treatment of cancers.

Abstract: A washing machine in accordance with the present invention includes a mounting member disposed between a stator and a bearing housing. Thus, when a motor is rotated according to an operation of the washing machine, the transmission of vibration, which is generated by a repulsive force of the stator, to the bearing housing can be reduced efficiently. Accordingly, a tub coupled to the bearing housing can be prevented from vibrating due to the vibration of the stator, and noise due to the vibration of the tub can be reduced.
