This study was conducted to investigate effects of cryopreservation by vitrification on the seed germination rate and growth and physiological properties of seedlings of Maackia amurensis. Cryopreservation significantly decreased the germination rate of seeds of M. amurensis, but the reduction of germination rate was mitigated by the treatment of cryoprotectant (plant vitrification solution, PVS2) before plugging into liquid nitrogen and fast thawing rate after cryopreservation. Long-term PVS2 exposure decreased seed germination rate, whereas cryopreservation time didn't have influence on seed germination rate. In addition, growth and physiological properties of seedlings were not affected by PVS2 exposing time and cryopreservation time. Therefore cryopreservation could be widely used as a technique of long-term ex situ conservation without any damage and deterioration of cells or tissues of the forest seeds. However, in order to increase the effect of cryopreservation, we have to develope the lower toxic cryoprotectant and suitable techniques to the structural or chemical properties of a variety of seeds.

This study investigated the effects of cryopreserving Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. 'White ND' shoot tips for eliminating viroids. As a result, smaller shoot tips (2-3 LP, 1mm) showed a better survival and regrowth than larger shoot tips (4-5 LP, 1.5mm). The most effective vitrification solution for survival and regrowth was PVS3, which induced a high survival rate after 60 minutes of incubation. For a high efficiency, the best pre-treatment condition for vitrification was incubation in 88 mM sucrose for 24 h, 0.3M sucrose for 16 h, 0.5 M sucrose for 6 h, and 0.7 M sucrose for 3 h, in a descending order. The ploidy levels were the same in the mother plants and following cryopreservation, which confirmed the absence of any gene mutation.

BACKGROUND: Seed of perilla (Perilla frutescens var. japonica Hara) is short-lived in conventional storage conditions. For long-term conservation of plant species, cryopreservation is the method currently available. This study was performed to find out reliable methods for a long-term storage of seeds of perilla as a genetic resource. METHODS AND RESULTS: Using seeds of 9 perilla cultivars, the effects of desiccation, aging, and cryopreservation on seed germinability and ascorbate peroxidase activity in the seeds were investigated. Initial germinability of the seeds was various, and dry seeds of all cultivars survived cryopreservation without loss of viability. The highest germination was achieved at 4-5% moisture content, and stimulatory effect of cryogenic temperature on the seed germination was observed in some cultivars. Accelerated aging of perilla seeds led to reduction in germination and ascorbate peroxidase activity, and the susceptibility of seeds to aging was different among the tested cultivars. No significant difference in germination was observed for the aged seeds of control and liquid nitrogen exposed. CONCLUSION: The results of this study suggest that cryopreservation at 4-5% moisture content would be a suitable method for long-term conservation of perilla seeds without detrimental effects on germination.

In woody plant germplasms, using prefrozen dormant buds for materials is one way to achieve successful cryopreservation. The protocol of cryopreservation for White birch (Betula platyphylla var. japonica) winter vegetative buds is the following. First, the branches of White birch were collected in January 20, when the vegetative buds were still in a state of quiescence. The winter buds with about 5㎜ of xylem tissue were removed from the branches. They were dehydrated to moisture contents about 44% by air dry treatment. The buds were prefrozen, with the temperature being decreased by 5∼-20$\^{C}$ and then transfered to the LN(liquid nitrogen) maintained below -l96$\^{C}$. After cryopreservation, the vegetative buds were rapidly thawed in a water bath at 40$\pm$5$\^{C}$. In this case, the cell survival rate of samples was about 86%. After sterilization, buds were then cultured on MS medium. These results demonstrate the feasibility for cryopreservation of winter vegetation buds of Betula platyphylla var. japonica.

종자은행은 종자를 보존하는 가장 경제적이고 효율적인 보전방법이지만, 수종에 따라 저장특성의 차이가 커서 수종별 저장방법의 확립이 필요하다. 초저온저장 방법은 세포 분열, 대사 작용을 정지 상태로 유지하므로 현재까지 장기간 보존을 위한 비용이 효율적이며 안정적인 방법이다. 공시재료는 멸종위기 야생식물 등 22종을 대상으로 하였다. 액체질소에 7일간 종자를 침지한 후 $37^{\circ}C$ 항온수조에서 10분간 해동하였다. 휴면이 있는 수종은 파종 전 종자를 저온습윤 하였고, 저온습윤 처리 후에도 휴면타파 되지 않는 수종은 농황산, 지베렐린을 개별 또는 혼용으로 처리하였다. 발아 및 유묘 평가는 $25^{\circ}C/20^{\circ}C$(광12h/암12h)조건에서 진행하였으며, 매일 28일차까지 발아조사를 수행한 후 평가하였다. 진달래속의 꼬리진달래와 철쭉이 초저온 민감성을 보였으며, 오리나무속의 물오리나무, 사방오리는 부분 민감성을 보였다. 민산초나무는 지하부건물중이 유의하게 감소한 결과를 보였으며, 이외의 수종은 초저온 민감성을 보이지 않았으므로 장기보존을 위한 초저온 동결보존이 가능한 것으로 보였다.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of glass infiltration treatments on the shear bond strength (SBS) between zirconia core and ultra low-fusing porcelain veneer. Materials and methods: The zirconia specimens were classified into 4 groups (n = 12): Untreated zirconia (group Z), zirconia coated ZirLiner (group ZL), glass-infiltrated zirconia (group ZG), glass-infiltrated and sandblasted zirconia (group ZGS). A cylinder of ultra low-fusing veneer porcelain was build up on each disk ($6mm{\times}3mm$). SBS was measured using a universal testing machine. Scanning electron microscope and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to evaluate the surface of zirconia and failure pattern after SBS. Results: SBS value of group ZGS was significantly lower than that of other groups (P < .05). No significant differences were detected among group ZL, group Z and group ZG. Conclusion: Glass infiltration is not effective to the bond strength between zirconia and ultra low-fusing porcelain veneer. Sandblasting also dramatically decreased the bonding strength.

The possibility for long-term preservation of Larix leptolepis embryogenic tissue was tested in this study. Higher relative increase of the tissue fresh weight was observed when embryogenic tissue was pretreated for 24 hrs in a medium containing 0.4 M sorbitol or 20% polyethyleneglycol with cooling rate of -0.33$^{\circ}C$/min. The fast cooling rate of -0.5$^{\circ}C$ and -1.$0^{\circ}C$/min appeared to be less effective in regrowth of tissues from cryopreservation. No DNA variants have been observed by PCR analysis among the embryogenic tissues recovered after 1-, 7-, and 28-day-cryopreservation. The post-thaw embryogenic tissue gave rise to mature somatic embryos which developed into plants.

Predehydration effects for cryopreservation in -196$^{\circ}C$ liquid nitrogen were studied in Korean native Aquilegia buergeriana var. oxysepala Kitamura and A. flabellata var. pumila Kudo seeds. Aquilegia species seeds were adjusted to moisture contents between 3.2 and 9.7% by air dry treatments. Seeds were placed in paper envelopes after submerged in liquid nitrogen and rewarming in 38 $^{\circ}C$ water. Seeds moisture contents by duration of drying were identified as controlling factors in the survival of Aquilegia species seeds for cryopreservation. Aquilegia species seeds having approximate 5% moisture content were able to withstand cooling to -l96$^{\circ}C$. Undehydrated seeds of Aquilegia buergeriana var. oxysepala Kitamura after being cryopreservated in liquid nitrogen have a 10.9% of moisture content and show 52.5% in germination. But, Aquilegia buergeriana var. oxysepala Kitamura seeds dehydrated by drying for 60 min. to have 6.0% of moisture content before cryopreservation show 84.7% in germination test. Properly dehydrated seeds after being stored in liquid nitrogen showed over 60% in germination rate and also shows an uniform sprouting time,11~13 days in average. Any morphologically deformity in germinating beds has not been observed. Results from this study suggest that Aquilegia species seeds can cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen if the seed moisture content is controled by a proper amount of dehydration.

By using liquid and gaseous nitrogen as simulants, effects of pintle opening distance and simulant supplying condition on spray from pintle injector were investigated qualitatively. The experiment was performed by fixing the liquid supply pressure and varying the opening of the pintle and the supply pressure of gaseous nitrogen. Shadowgraph method with CCD camera was used for image visualization, and the differences of liquid-gas spray were compared by image post processing. In case of liquid nitrogen single injection, as the opening distance was increased, the injection speed was decreased. Therefore, the end of liquid sheet were converged to the center of spray. In the case of liquid nitrogen/Gaseous nitrogen spray, although shadowgraph images look similar to each other, It is shown that it can be analysed by image post processing.
