Since the concept of osseointegration was introduced by Branemark of Sweden, dental implants have been used for various dental prosthetic treatments. The survival rate of dental implant is likely to be closely related to the total biomechanical role of each component of implant system. The use of interchangeable component is very attractive for dental practitioners because such an approach would save treatment cost, flexibility of prosthetic treatment options as well as conveniences. Therefore, the use of interchangeable implant system has been increasing without scientific assessment of safety and efficacy of various interchangeable implant system. The purpose of this study, therefore, were to compare the geometric characteristic of four interchangeable dental implant screws and the loosening torque of these screws. Four types of dental implant screws tested in this study were Nobelpharma, 3i, Impla-med, Restore. Four screws each of the test specimens were subjected for scanning electron microscopic examinations under the same condition and a 35x magnified standard SEM picture was objected from each test specimen using JSM-5200 scanning microscope. From each of the SEM pictures, eight parameters. i.e., diameter of screw head. screw length, thread pitch, major diameter. neck diameter, neck length, crest width and root width were determined using a caliper. The measurement for each parameters were then corrected for their magnification factor. The loosening torque were also determined by using a torque gauge. All of the measurements were statistically analyzed by ANOVA test and multiple range test. Statistical significance was set in advance at the probability level of less than 0.05. All analyses were done with SPSS software for the personal computer. The conclusion obtained from this studies were summarized as the following; 1. No statistically significances were noted in the thread pitch. and crest width in the four screws, and in the case of major diameter, the Impla-med screw was significantly smaller than the other three screws (p<0.05). Therefore, four implant bolts could be physically inserted in a abutment nuts. 2. The diameter of screw head was decreased in the order of Restore, 3i, Nobelpharma, Impla-med screws and the length of screws were decreased in the order of 3i, Restore, Nobelpharma and Impla-med. The diameter of neck was decreased in the order of Impla-med, Restore. Nobelpharma, 3i screws. The differences of each of these parameters were statistically significant (p<0.05). The width of root of screws were decreased in the order of Nobelpharma, Impla-med, Restore and 3i. The differences among Nobelpharma and Impla-med. Restore and 3i were statistically significant (p<0.05). 3. When the screws were loosening 1, 3, 4 and 5 times, the loosening torque for Impla-med and 3i screws were significantly higher than that of Nobelpharma or Restore screws (p<0.05). However, when statistically smaller than that of 3i, Restore or Nobelpharma screws(p<0.05).

The aim of the study was to see if there is any differences in urinary 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG) and 2-naphthol levels in children ($8{\sim}14$ years old) and their mothers ($30{\sim}46$ years old) living three cities in South Korea (Seoul, Incheon and Pohang) and three in China (Changchun, Datong and Kunming), where the levels of air pollution varies. The factors related with urinary biomarkers levels were also evaluated. The study subjects consisted of 118 Korean (60 children and 58 their mothers) and 120 Chinese (60 children and 60 their mothers). Urinary 1-OHPG was measured by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy after immuno-affinity purification using monoclonal antibody 8E11 and urinary 2-naphthol concentrations were determined by HPLC with fluorescence detector. Information on recent consumption of diet containing high PAHs, environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), type of cooking and heating fuels, and other life-style characteristics were collected by self-administered questionnaire. The arithmetic mean of urinary 1-OHPG levels (n = 120, $mean{\pm}SD$, $6.77{\pm}7.96{\mu}mol/mol$ creatinine) in Chinese were 10 fold higher than those in Korean (n = 118, $0.62{\pm}0.61{\mu}mol/mol$ creatinine) (P < 0.01). Urinary 2-naphthol levels in Chinese (n = 119, $59.50{\pm}82.29{\mu}g/g$ creatinine) were significantly higher than those in Korean (n = 117, $25.09{\pm}46.56{\mu}g/g$ creatinine) (P < 0.01). Urinary 1-OHPG and 2-naphthol levels were significantly higher in children living the polluted cities in China (Datong and Chanchun, respectively). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that living in factory area (vs. residential area) and use of coal stove as heating fuel were significant predictors for urinary 1-OHPG (overall model $R^2$= 0.46, n = 204). And ETS was predictor for urinary 2-naphthol levels in Korean ($R^2$ = 0.36, n = 46). These results indicated that urinary 1-OHPG and 2-naphthol levels were related with different ambient particulate air pollution, type of heating fuels and ETS.

This study evaluated the concentrations of urinary metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in industrial waste incineration workers. The effect of genetic polymorphisms of xenobiotic metabolism enzymes on urinary concentration of PAH metabolites was assessed. And, aromatic DNA adduct levels were also determined in total white blood cells. Fifty employees were recruited from a company handling industrial wastes located in Ansan, Korea: non-exposed group (n=21), exposed group (n=29). Sixteen ambient PAHs were determined by GC/MSD (NIOSH method) from personal breathing zone samples of nine subjects near incinerators. Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG), a major pyrene metabolite, was assayed by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy after immunoaffinity purification using monoclonal antibody 8E11 (SFS/IAC). Multiplex PCR was used for genotyping for GSTMI/TI and PCR-RFLP for genotyping of CYP1A1 (MspI and Ile/Val). PAH-DNA adducts in peripheral blood WBC were measured by the nuclease P1-enhanced postlabeling assay. Smoking habit, demographic and occupational information were collected by self-administered questionnaire. The range of total ambient PAH levels were 0.00-7.00 mg/㎥ (mean 3.31). Urinary 1-OHPG levels were significantly higher in workers handling industrial wastes than in those with presumed lower exposure to PAHs (p=0.006, by Kruskal-Wallis test). There was a statistically significant dose-response increase in 1-OHPG levels with the number of cigarettes consumed per day (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.686, p<0.001). Urinary 1-OHPG levels in occupationally exposed smoking workers were highest compared with non-occupationally exposed smokers (p=0.053, by Kruskal-Wallis test). Smoking and GSTMI genotype were significant predictors for log-transformed 1-OHPG by multiple regression analysis (overall model R²=0.565, p<0.001), whereas smoking was the only significant predictor for log-transformed aromatic DNA adducts (overall model R²=0.249, p=0.201). Aromatic DNA adducts was also a significantly correlation between log transferred urinary 1-OHPG levels (pearson's correlation coefficient=0.307, p=0.04). However, the partial correlation coefficient adjusting for Age, Sex, and cigarette consumption was not significant (r=0.154, p=0.169). The significant association exists only in individuals with the GSTMI null genotype (pearsons correlation coefficient=0.516, p=0.010; partial correlation coefficient adjusting for age, sex, and cigarette consumption, r=0.363, p=0.038). Our results suggest that the significant increase in urinary 1-OHPG in the exposed workers is due to higher prevalence of smokers among them, and that the association between urinary PAH metabolites and aromatic DNA adducts in workers of industrial waste handling may be modulated by GSTMI genotype. There results remain to be confirmed in future larger studies.

To study the differentiating cytomorphological features of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) using fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), cytomorphological features of 16 patients with HL (n=8) or ALCL (n=8) were analyzed. In the initial cytological diagnosis prior to biopsy, HLs were properly diagnosed in 4 out of 8 cases (4 HL, 2 atypical, 2 benign), whereas all ALCL were diagnosed as malignancies. However, correct diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) was made in only two ALCL patients (2 NHL, 1 HL, 1 sarcoma, 4 malignancy without specific type). Overall, the percentage of large abnormal cells ranged from 30% to 90% in ALCL except for one case, whereas it was less than 5% in all 8 HL. A spectrum of atypical cells was more characteristic of ALCL. In contrast, HL showed an sharp difference between reactive lymphoid cells and neoplastic ones (bimorphic pattern). Moreover, the emergence of kidney-shaped abnormal cells or wreath-like multinucleated cells was helpful in diagnosing ALCL. The combination of thesefeatures would be useful in differentiating HL and ALCL. Nevertheless, these two types of lymphomas cannot be definitely distinguished based on cytomorphological features alone. Therefore, the aim of FNAC would be to suggest a specific diagnosis and indicate the need for a biopsy.

상주시 임곡리에 굴착된 심도 100 m 지하수공(PW-2)의 적정양수량을 산정하였다. 시추코아와, 물리검층 자료에 의하면 지하수 산출 심도는 26.1~26.5, 28.0~30.0, 33, 58, 71 m로 해석된다. 단계양수시험에 의하면 40, 55, 70, 90, $132m^3/d$의 양수량으로 70일간 양수시 수위강하량은 각각 6.48, 11.56, 18.07, 28.99, 60.26 m로 예상되었다. $117m^3/d$으로 250분간 실시한 일정량양수시험에서는 양수 경과시간 120~150분에 영향추가 불투수층 경계조건에 도달하여 급격한 수위강하가 일어나 PW-2의 한계채수량은 $90m^3/d$로 산정하였으며 이때의 수위강하량은 28.82~31.27 m이다. 적정양수량은 한계채수량의 범위내의 정류상태여야 하기 때문에 PW-2의 적정양수량은 $70{\sim}90m^3/d$로 제시하였다. 불투수층 경계조건에서 직선의 기울기가 급해지며 지하수의 DO와 ORP가 증가하는 것으로 보아 PW-2를 중심으로 한 기반암지하수의 발달은 제한적인 것으로 추정된다.

Bacillus subtilis BB-1 (KFCC l1344P)으로부터 분리된 혈전용해효소 유전자 (BCF-1)를 대량발현 벡터인 pEB 벡터에 크로닝하여 순수분리 된 혈전용해효소를 rat 경구 투여하여 출혈시간, 혈액의 응고, serum의 혈전용해능 등에 대한 in vivo 실험을 실시하였으며, 혈전용해효소의 단회경구투여에 따른 독성을 검사하였다. 효소의 경구투여에 따른 rat의 출혈시간에서는 대조군에 비하여 모든 경구 투여군에서 출혈시간이 유의적으로 약 1.75배 이상 길게 나타남을 확인하였고(P<0.05), 혈액의 출혈시간 또한 활발히 진행됨을 관찰하였다. 혈액으로부터 분리된 serum의 혈전용해작용 있어서는 경구투여 후 1시간부터 채혈한 혈액 내에서 혈전용해효소의 활성이 검출되기 시작하여 3시간째까지 높은 활성을 보였으며 4시간째부터 서서히 활성이 감소하는 것을 확인하였고 혈액의 응고 역시 대조군에 비하여 경구 투여군에서 상당히 지연되는 것을 알 수 있었다. Western blot에 의한 효소 검출에서는 경구 투여군에서 30,000 Da 크기의 단일밴드를 확인하였으며, 혈전용해효소의 rat에 대한 단회경구투여 독성실험에서 중량의 변화, 장기의 이상여부, 사망률 등에서 어떠한 이상이나 병변이 발견되지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 동물실험을 통한 혈전용해 효소의 경구투여에 의한 작용을 혈액 내에서 확인 할 수 있었으며, 본 효소의 단회 경구투여 시의 독성은 전혀 없음을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근, 곰소만에서 채집한 시료로부터 최초의 온대역산 광합성 섬모류 Mesodinium rubrum MR-MAL01 배양체를 분리ㆍ배양하였다. 이 섬모류를 이용하여 이매패류의 섭식실험을 수행한 결과, 비단가리비와 바지락과 같은 이매패류가 섬모류를 직접 섭식 하였음을 확인하였는데, 개체 당 최대 섭식률은 비단가리비 9,590 cells $min^{-1}$, 바지락 23,200 cells $min^{-1}$으로 나타났다. 또한 비단가리비의 소화관에서 완전한 M. rubrum세포를 확인하지 못했으나, 파괴된 세포로 생각되는 작은 입자들을 관찰하였다. 바지락 치패에 섬모류인 M. rubrum과 미소조류인 Isochrysis galbana (KMCC H-2)를 공급하면서 28일 동안 사육한 결과, 작은 치패 그룹(각장 0.46 mm)에서는 I. galbana를 공급한 실험구가 좋은 성장을 보였던 반면, 큰 치패 그룹(각장 0.84 mm)에서는 M. rubrum을 공급한 실험구가 I. galbana를 공급한 실험구에 비해 성장이 좋았다. 따라서 이 광합성 섬모류는 이매패류의 치패 및 모패와 입이 작은 자어의 먹이생물, rotifer의 영양강화제 및 어류의 천연 착색제로도 활용할 수 있는 잠재력이 있어 해양 생물공학적 활용을 위한 생물재료로서 개발 가능성을 제안한다.
