저압 침지식 멤브레인을 이용한 해수 담수화 전처리에 있어서 유기 파울링은 막간 압력 증가로 인한 화학 세정 횟수의 증가 및 에너지 소비 증가 등 멤브레인 운전시 문제점들을 야기한다. 조류대응 해수전처리에서 조류가 배출하는 extracellular polymeric substances의 대표물질인 sodium alginate를 이용하여 침지식 여과에서 파울링 현상을 관찰하였다. 공기 폭기가 적용되지 않은 경우 순수한 aglinate 파울링은 농도가 증가하면서 증가하였다. 그러나 공기 폭기를 적용해 준 경우 alginate 파울링 감소는 매우 효과적이었다. 공기 폭기가 없는 경우 칼슘 농도의 증가에 따라 alginate 파울링은 감소하였다. 동일 조건에서 공기 폭기 시 높은 alginate 파울링 감소효과를 나타내었으나 NaCl 농도를 증가시킨 경우 칼슘 농도의 증가에 따라 파울링 제어를 위한 공기 폭기 효과는 감소하였다. 해수와 유사한 높은 NaCl과 칼슘 농도에서 고농도 sodium alginate의 경우 공기 폭기량 증가를 통해 초기 파울링을 감소시킬 수 있었으나 시간의 경과에 따라 상대적으로 낮은 폭기량에서의 파울링 감소 효과와 큰 차이는 없었다.

The surface states of gate dielectrics affect device performance severely in Pentacene OTFTs. We have fabricated organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) using pentacene as an active layer with chemically modified $SiO_2$ gate dielectrics. The effects of the surface treatment of $SiO_2$ on the electric characteristics of OTFTS were investigated. The surface of $SiO_2$ gate dielectric was treated by normal wet cleaning process, $O_2-plasma$ treatment, hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS), and octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) treatment. After the surface treatments, the contact angles and surface free energies were measured in order to analyze the surface state changes. In the electrical measurements, typical I-V characteristics of TFTs were observed. The field effect mobility, $\mu$, was calculated to be $0.29\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ for OTS treated sample while those for the HMDS, $O_2$ plasma treated, and wet-cleaned samples were 0.16, 0.1, and $0.04\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, respectively.

Objectives: In order to evaluate the association between occupational exposure to chloroethylene (TCE) and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), we conducted a meta-analysis of retrospective cohort studies and casecontrol studies and attempted to summarize the evidence of the association from molecular-epidemiological studies and experiments with human cells. Methods: In the meta-analysis, we restricted the analysis to those studies with data for chlorinated solvents, degreasers, or TCE. Studies involving dry cleaners or launderers were excluded from the analysis because use of TCE as a dry cleaning fluid has been rare since the 1960s. The data were combined using a random-effects model to estimate the summary risks (OR and RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Molecular evidence of the effect of TCE on human immune system were also reviewed and summarized. Results: Occupational exposure to TCE was strongly associated with NHL among cohort studies (number of studies=13, summary RR=1.33, 95% CI=1.04-1.70) whereas the association was not statistically significant among case-control studies (number of studies=15, summary OR=1.10, 0.98-1.23). When exposure level was considered, it became statistically significant for the highest exposure level (number of studies=5, summary OR=1.70, 1.25-2.32). Molecular evidences showed that TCE exposure in human or cultured human cells may cause a significant decrease immune cell subsets and changes in hormone levels related to immune response. Conclusions: Our results from meta-analysis and additional molecular evidence suggest that occupational exposure to TCE may cause NHL. However, unmeasured potential confounding and unclear dose-response relationships warrant further study on the role of TCE exposure in NHL carcinogenesis.

PURPOSE. This study evaluated the effectiveness of various methods for removing provisional cement from implant abutments, and what effect these methods have on the retention of prosthesis during the definitive cementation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Forty implant fixture analogues and abutments were embedded in resin blocks. Forty cast crowns were fabricated and divided into 4 groups each containing 10 implants. Group A was cemented directly with the definitive cement (Cem-Implant). The remainder were cemented with provisional cement (Temp-Bond NE), and classified according to the method for cleaning the abutments. Group B used a plastic curette and wet gauze, Group C used a rubber cup and pumice, and Group D used an airborne particle abrasion technique. The abutments were observed using a stereomicroscope after removing the provisional cement. The tensile bond strength was measured after the definitive cementation. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way analysis of variance test (${\alpha}$=.05). RESULTS. Group B clearly showed provisional cement remaining, whereas the other groups showed almost no cement. Groups A and B showed a relatively smooth surface. More roughness was observed in Group C, and apparent roughness was noted in Group D. The tensile bond strength tests revealed Group D to have significantly the highest tensile bond strength followed in order by Groups C, A and B. CONCLUSION. A plastic curette and wet gauze alone cannot effectively remove the residual provisional cement on the abutment. The definitive retention increased when the abutments were treated with rubber cup/pumice or airborne particle abraded to remove the provisional cement.

It is improtant that performing prophylaxis procedure on an infected implant surface in order to treat peri-implantitis should not change the surface roughness and composition, so that the surface can be recovered to almost same condition as initial implant surface. This thesis, therefore, studied an effect of various oral hygiene instrument on implant surface. A surface roughness measurement instrument and an infection electron microscope were used to observe a change on surface. The purpose of this study was to obtain a clinical guidelines during implant care and peri-implantitis treatment. The result were as follows 1. Ra values (surface roughness value) at experimental group 1, group 2, and group 5 were increased significantly as compared with comparison group(p<0.05). 2. When compared experimental group 1 with each experimental groups at which prohylaxis procedure was performed, mean values of Ra at experimental group 2, group 3, group 6, and group 7 were decreased significantly(p<0.05). 3. Mean value of Ra was lowest at experimental group 2, and highest at experimental group 2, and highest at experimental group 5. 4. Analysis of SEM showed that was significant surface change at experimental group 2, group 3, group 4, group 5, and group 6 as compared with comparison group(X1000). 5. Analysis fo EDX showed that a quantity of Ti on surface for experimental group 6 was very similar to that for comparison group. In conclusion, air-powder abrasive and citric acid, plastic instrument are safe methods to use for performing prophylaxis procedure on implant care or for cleaning and sterilization process on treatment of peri-implantitis, based on the result that those method did not affect implant surface roughness and Ti composition.

감광성 폴리이미드 위에 Cr을 RF 바이어스 스퍼터링 및 RF클리닝 후 DC 스퍼터링한 Cr/폴리이미드의 계면을 TEM으로 관찰하였다. RF power 밀도를 $0.13W/cm^2$에서 $2.12W/cm^2$로 증가시키면서 RF클리닝을 실시한 결과 폴리이미드의 에칭 양상이 둥근 모양에서 뾰족한 모양으로 변하였고 이방성 에칭으로 인해 거칠기가 크게 증가하였다. RF 바이어스 스퍼터링의 경우 RF power를 올리는 동안 RF 클리닝에 의해 폴리이미드가 에칭되었고, 에칭된 부분에 Cr이 증착된 계면을 단면으로 관찰한 결과 Cr과 폴리이미드가 겹쳐져서 혼합된 것처럼 보였다. 그러나 RF power를 올리는 시간을 단축시켜 Cr을 바이어스 스퍼터링했을 때에는 계면이 분명하게 관찰되어 Cr의 implantation이 일어나지 않았음을 알 수 있었다. RF 클리닝한 Cu/Cr/Polyimide를 필 테스트한 결과 짧은 시간의 RF 클리닝으로도 접착력이 크게 증가하였다. 그러므로 RF power를 올리는 동안 실시되었던 RF 클리닝이 RF 바이어스 스퍼터링한 Cr/Polyimide의 접착력 향상에 영향을 주었을 것으로 예상된다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to compare the plaque removal effects of vacuum oral cleaner developed for the patients with limited mobility with those of manual toothbrushes and high pressure injection oral cleaner (dental water jet). Meterials and methods : Thirty human subjects were measured with Patient Hygiene Performance index (PHP index) and O'Leary index before and after the use of toothbrush, high pressure injection oral cleaner and vacuum oral cleaner. These three different oral hygiene methods were conducted with seven-day intermittence. Then the statistical analysis was carried out to define plaque removal rate of three different oral hygiene methods (${\alpha}=.05$). Results : According to the efficacy analysis of plaque removal before and after the oral cleaning using each of three methods, significant reduction in plaque after the treatment compared to the previous state when using toothbrush, high pressure injection oral cleaner, and vacuum oral cleaner was observed (P < 0.001). PHP index of tooth brushing was higher than that of the high pressure injection oral cleaner, while PHP index of vacuum oral cleaner did not show significant difference from either of the other two methods. There was no significance difference in O'Leary index among the three methods. Conclusion : Effect of plaque removal using the vacuum oral cleaner is comparable to that of manual tooth brush or high pressure injection oral cleaner, so it will be helpful for self-oral hygiene care of the patients with limited mobility.

최근 국내 터널들이 노후화됨에 따라 배수공 막힘현상이 가장 큰 문제점 중 하나로 보수대책 공법이 필요한 실정이다. 현재는 유지 관리용 Robot이나 Water Jet Cleaning공법 등으로 배수공 내 생성된 스케일을 제거하고 있지만 비용이 비싸고 주기적인 관리를 필요로 하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 터널 배수공 내의 스케일을 SEM-EDS와 XRD로 분석하였고, 침전물은 탄산칼슘($CaCO_3$)성분의 스케일로 calcite로 확인되었다. 침전물 생성 억제 및 제거를 위해 퀀텀스틱 신기술을 사용하여 개방형 배수시험, 순환식 폐쇄수조시험을 실시하였다. 무게측정분석, 육안분석, 경도변화분석을 통하여 요소기술로 인한 스케일 생성량이 확연히 줄었음을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 퀀텀스틱이 배수공 내 침전물 생성을 방지하는데 효과가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
