  • Publication number: 20240377356
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a microbial concentration detection element in an unknown solution. In more detail, the microbial concentration detection element includes: a preprocessing unit configured to produce a microbe substitution solution by transferring microbes in an unknown solution containing detection target microbes into a reference solution through acoustophoresis, and to calculate electrical property information of the microbe substitution solution; and a microbe concentration measurement unit configured to separate the microbe substitution solution into a microbe concentration solution and a filtered solution through dielectrophoresis on the basis of the electrical property information measured by the preprocessing unit, and then measure a microbial concentration of the microbe concentration solution.

  • Patent number: 7968818
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for welding strap connections between inner grid straps of a spacer grid using a laser tool, and a spacer grid manufactured by the same, in which the strap connections between the inner grid straps of the spacer grid are seam-welded continuously or intermittently using the laser tool, so that the structural strength of the spacer grid is increased, a spattering phenomenon, in which a welded material is spattered during welding, is reduced, and thermal deformation is reduced. Further, fine welding is possible, and thus the welded bead of each strap connection between the inner grid straps can have a small size, and the number of welding defects can be reduced. In addition, the flow resistance of a coolant is reduced, and thereby the pressure drop of the coolant can be reduced As a result, the load on a flow pump for the coolant can be reduced, and economic efficiency and safety can be improved.
