본 연구에서는 나노구조의 새로운 망간산화물 입자(즉, 블랙-버네사이트)를 합성하여 물질특성 및 1,4-naphthoquinone (1,4-NPQ)을 대상으로 반응매개체 존재 하에서의 산화-변환반응 효율을 조사하였고, 그 결과를 기존의 McKenzie 방법으로 얻은 망간산화물(즉, 브라운-버네사이트)의 결과와 비교 분석하였다. XRD 분석 결과 합성한 망간산화물 입자의 결정상은 버네사이트(${\delta}-MnO_2$)임을 확인하였으며, SEM 측정결과 입자표면은 섬유상의 구조에 의한 나노크기의 미세기공을 가진 볼모양(ball-like)의 형태를 보였다. 배치실험 결과, 나노구조의 망간산화물에 의한 1,4-NPQ 제거는 유사-1차 반응을 따랐으며 기존 망간산화물과 비교해 BET 비표면적 값이 작음(41.05 vs 19.80 $m^2/g$)에도 불구하고 약 2.3배의 높은 속도 상수값을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 블랙-버네사이트에서의 상대적으로 높은 결정성과 나노구조의 표면 특성에 기인한 것으로 해석되며, 블랙-버네사이트 입자가 퀴논화합물에 대하여 상대적으로 높은 반응성을 보임을 알 수 있다. 반응산물에 대한 HPLC 크로마토그램 분석 결과로부터 블랙 버네사이트 입자에 의한 1,4-NPQ의 제거는 반응 매개체인 catechol 존재 하에서의 상호-결합반응을 통한 중합체 생성을 통해 제거됨을 확인하였다.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of intermittent bleeding method in the distal phalanx replantation. Materials and Methods: From January 2007 through June 2009, authors have replanted 117 cases of distal phalangeal amputation in adults at Soo Hospital and Chonbuk National University Hospital. Cases of zone II were 60 cases and zone III 57 according to Allen classification. Male to female ratio was 8.7:1.3. The most common cause was machinery injury in the factory, 98 cases(83.8%), next one was belt injury of the machine, 11 cases(9.4%) and others, 8(6.8%). At least one digital artery and digital nerve were anastomosed under the operating microscope, but vein was impossible to anastomosis as unable to find out in the zone II and III. After anastomosis of one or more digital arteries and nerves, heparine(6,000-10,000 units) was kept to intravenous injection for 24 hours and at the same time fish mouth incision in 2-3 millimeter diameter was made in the distal radial and ulnar margin of the replanted distal phanlanx. From the first 30 minutes to an hour after replantation, incision site was swabbed with heparinized cotton ball for 5 minutes in every 30 to 40 minutes to make sure perfusion for 24 hours, every an hour at the second day, every two hours at the postoperative third to fifth day. Results: 92 cases(78.6%) was completely survived at average postoperative third week follow-up and satisfied with preservation of the finger nail, digit length, good range of motion of the distal interphalangeal joint and acceptable sensibility at average 1.2 years follow-up. Conclusions: Intermittant bleeding method in replantation of crushed distal phalanx impossible to anastomosis of vein at zone II and III of Allen classification was regarded as one of the notable salvage procedure.

시아노아크릴레이트 훈증법은 비다공성 표면에 유류된 잠재지문을 현출할 때 효과적이다. 본 연구는, 진공챔버에서 시아노아크릴레이트를 훈증할 때 온도, 습도, 훈증 방법 등이 잠재지문 현출에 미치는 영향을 확인한 후 최적 반응 조건을 찾는데 있다. 진공챔버의 온도가 높을수록 시아노아크릴레이트 증발량은 증가했지만, 지문 융선에서 시아노아크릴레이트의 중합반응은 $30^{\circ}C$에서 가장 잘 일어났다. 상대습도가 40%, 50% 조건에서는 좋은 상태의 지문이 현출되었지만, 30%보다 낮거나 60%보다 높은 조건에서는 지문 융선에서 시아노아크릴레이트 중합반응 속도가 느려졌다. 진공챔버에서 시아노아크릴레이트를 자연적으로 증발시키는 방법보다는 $OMEGA-PRINT^{TM}$ dispersal pads와 수산화나트륨을 포함한 솜을 이용해 시아노아크릴레이트 훈증하는 방법이 효과적이란 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 진공챔버에서 시아노아크릴레이트 처리시간은 상대습도에 비해 큰 영향을 주지 않았다.

토끼 흉부 대동맥을 이용하여 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완에 대한 세포외 $Ca^{2+}$과 여러가지 $Ca^{2+}$ 길항제의 효과를 분석하여 EDRF의 작용기전을 밝혀 보고자 하였다. 대동맥 횡단 절편의 등장성 수축은 $10^{-7}\;M$ 노에피네프린으로 유발시켰으며, $10^{-6}\;M$ 사세틸콜린으로 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완을 일으켰다. 내피세포는 작은 솜뭉치로 부드럽게 문질러서 제거하였으며, hemolysate를 사용하여 EDRF에 대한 헤모글로빈의 효과를 관찰하였다. 결과를 종합하면 다음과 같다. 1) 아세틸콜린에 의한 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완은 두 시기, 즉 초기급속이완기와 후기완만이완기로 나타났다. 2) 세포외 $Ca^{2+}$을 낮추면, 아세틸콜린에 의한 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완이 감소하였으며, 특히 후기완만이완기가 감소하였다. 3) Verapamil, nifedipine, $Mn^{2+}$ 및 $Cd^{2+}$은 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완에 영향이 없었던 반면 $La^{3+}$와 $Co^{2+}$는 억제시켰다. 4) 헤모글로빈을 투여하면 내피세포가 없는 절편에서는 기초긴장도의 변화가 없었으나 내피세포가 있는 절편에서는 기초긴장도가 증가하였고 아세틸콜린에 의한 내피세포 의존성 혈관이완도 완전히 억제되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 세포외 $Ca^{2+}$은 주로 후기완만이완기에 작용하며 이때 사용되는 $Ca^{2+}$ 유입 통로는 $Ca^{2+}$ 길항제로 억제되지 않는 것으로 결론지을 수 있다.

The objective of this work is to study transdermal delivery of levodopa using iontophoresis and evaluate various factors which affect the transdermal transport. Levodopa is unstable in aqueous solution, and, in order to establish a stable condition for levodopa for the duration of experiment, we investigated the stability of levodopa in aqueous solutions of different pHs with/without the addition of dextrose or the application of current. Using stable aqueous solution, we have studied the effect of pH, polarity and penetration enhancer (ethanol) on transdermal flux and compared the results. We also investigated the iontophoretic flux from hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) hydrogel. In vitro flux study was performed at $33^{\circ}C$, using side-by-side diffusion cell. Full thickness hairless mouse skin and rat skin were used for this work. Current densities applied were 0.4 or $0.6mA/cm^2$ and current was off after 6 hour application. Stability study showed that levodopa solution with a pH 2.5 or 4.5 maintained the initial concentration of levodopa for 24 hours with the addition of 5% dextrose. However, at pH 9.5, levodopa was unstable and 30 to 40% of levodopa degraded within 24 hours, even with the addition of 5% dextrose. Hydrogel swollen with dextrose added levodopa solution maintained about 97% of the initial concentration of levodopa for 13 days, when stored in $4^{\circ}C$. The application of current did not affect the stability of levodopa in hydrogel. Flux study from levodopa solution with pH 2.5 showed that cathodal delivery of levodopa was higher than passive or anodal delivery. When the pH of the donor solution was 4.5, anodal delivery of levodopa was higher than passive or cathodal delivery. These results seem to indicate that electroosmosis plays more dominant role than electrorepulsion in the flux of levodopa at pH 2.5, and the reverse situation applies for pH 4.5. The passive flux was unexpectedly high for the ionized levodopa. Similar to the results from aqueous solution, cumulative amount of levodopa transported trom HPC hydrogel by cathodal delivery was significantly higher than passive or anodal delivery. The treatment of 70% ethanol cotton ball by scrubbing increased passive, anodal and cathodal flux, with the largest increase for anodal flux. These results indicate that iontophoretic delivery of zwitterion such as levodopa is much complicated than that can be expected from small ionic molecules with single charge. The results also indicate that the balance between electroosmosis and electrorepulsion plays a very important role in the transport through skin.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of tooth-brushing oral care on oral health and ventilator-associated pneumonia of patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods: A total of 74 participants were recruited from a medical, surgical, or neurosurgical ICU at S Hospital in Seoul, Korea, from September of 2010 to January of 2011. An experimental group (n= 36) received oral care with tooth-brushing while a control group (n=38) received oral care with cotton ball and gauze. In both group, the oral care was done three times a day at least one minute for 7 days. Oral health was examined by the Modified Oral Assessment Guide before the intervention and each night. Results: There is no difference between the groups in aspect of passage of time (p = .603), interaction between time and intervention (p =.300), the performance intervention (p = .766), and the incidence of VAP (p = .486). Conclusion: The effect of oral care with tooth-brushing on oral health and VAP was not different from that of usual oral care in ICU. However, further study is necessary due to high attrition in this study.
