In an attempt to isolate myxobacteria from soil samples, we isolated swarm and fruiting body forming bacteria that have bacteriolytic activity on Coli-spot agar plate. For the classification of myxobacteria, 16S rDNA RFLP patterns were analyzed. Amplified 16S rDNAs of myxobacteria type strains (Family I, II, III and IV), negative control strains and soil-isolates were restricted with HaeIII, EcoRI and EcoRV, respectively. We found that the soil-isolates belongs to myxobacteria Family I, II, III.

The ion exchange resins were synthesized from 1-aza-18-crown-6 macrocyclic ligand attached to styrene (2th petroleum in 4th class hazardous material) divinylbenzene (DVB) copolymer with crosslinks of 1%, 6%, and 15% by substitution reaction. These synthetic resins were confirmed by chlorine content, elementary analysis, surface area, and IR-spectrum. The object of this study was to seperate the metal ion absorbed in reinforcement water fire extinguishing agent. As the results of the effects of pH, equilibrium arrival time, and crosslink of synthetic resin on metal ion adsorption for resin adsorbent, the metal ions were showed high adsorption at pH 3 or over and adsorption equilibrium of metal ions was about 2 hours. In addition, adsorption selectivity for the resin in water was the order of Al (III) > Ni (II) > Sm (III) ions, adsorbability of the metal ions was in the crosslinks order of 1%, 6%, and 15%.

The effects of salting degree of cabbage on the chemical, microbiological, textural changes and taste of Korean whole cabbage Kimchi fermented at $21^{\circ}C$ was studied. Low salted Kimchi (1.8% NaCl, soaking for 2 hr. in 20% brine) was showed higher total acdity than high salted Kimchi II(3.1% NaCl, Soaking For 8 hr in 20% brine) and III(2.9% NaCl, no soaking in 20% brine). The changes in growth of lactic acid bacteria was relevant to the salt content of whole cabbage Kimchi. Kimchi I was showed higher growth rate of Lactic acid bacteria and slower death rate constant of Lactic acid bacteria than that of Kimchi II and III. In palatability test, salty taste of Kimchi II, III was more salty than that of Kimchi I ($p{\leqq}0.01$) and total evaluation of Kimchi I, II was more palatable than Kimchi III ($p{\leqq}0.05$) at 3rd's day (optimum taste). Cutting force by Rheometer was well correlated with the salt content of Kimchi.

The effect of europium-driven corrosion behavior of Alloy 709 in FLiNaK molten salt was investigated by static immersion tests at 700 ℃. It was found that the corrosion of Alloy 709 increased after the addition of EuF₃, even though the standard reduction potential of Eu(III)/Eu(II) was negative than those of Fe(II)/Fe, Ni(II)/Ni and Cr (II)/Cr. The presence of Eu(III) led to deeper corrosion attack layers and more pits on the steel surface in comparison with corrosion in blank FLiNaK. However, the addition of Eu(III) seemed to have a role in reducing surface cracking that was explored in corrosion by blank FLiNaK, which depended on Eu(III) concentration.

Early treatment is recommended for class III malocclusion in the primary dentition, though it is difficult to diagnose correctly. It was recommended dental maturation can possibly be used to make a differential diagnosis of skeletal class III malocclusion. This study aimed to compare dental maturation of first molars in children with skeletal or non-skeletal class III malocclusion in the primary dentition and to determine if dental maturation could be used to make a differential diagnosis of class III malocclusion. Among the children visiting the department of pediatric dentistry in Pusan National University Dental Hospital for anterior crossbite in the primary dentition, 18 were categorized into the non-skeletal class III malocclusion and 34 into the skeletal class III malocclusion. Panoramic radiographs were used to make comparative analysis of dental age and the eruption rate of the first molars. The following results were obtained. No difference was found between chronologic and dental age by the skeletal features or gender, with the latter being older than the former (p < 0.05). The discrepancies in eruption rate of first molars were significantly different between skeletal (18.91%) and non-skeletal groups (16.53%) (p < 0.05). This result implies that maturation of the first molars might be used to make a differential diagnosis of class III malocclusion.

Background: During the orthognathic surgery, it is important to know the exact anatomical location of the mandibular foramen to achieve successful anesthesia of inferior alveolar nerve and to prevent damage to the nerves and vessels supplying the mandible. Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to determine the location of the mandibular foramen in 100 patients: 30 patients with normal occlusion (13 men, 17 women), 40 patients with skeletal class II malocclusion (15 men, 25 women), 30 patients with skeletal class III malocclusion (17 men, 13 women). Results: The distance from the anterior border of the mandibular ramus to mandibular foramen did not differ significantly among the three groups, but in the group with skeletal class III malocclusion, this distance was an average of $1.43{\pm}1.95mm$ longer in the men than in the women (p < 0.05). In the skeletal class III malocclusion group, the mandibular foramen was higher than in the other two groups and was an average of $1.85{\pm}3.23mm$ higher in the men than in the women for all three groups combined (p < 0.05). The diameter of the ramus did not differ significantly among the three groups but was an average of $1.03{\pm}2.58mm$ wider in the men than in the women for all three groups combined (p < 0.05). In the skeletal class III malocclusion group, the ramus was longer than in the other groups and was an average of $7.9{\pm}3.66mm$ longer in the men than women. Conclusions: The location of the mandibular foramen was higher in the skeletal class III malocclusion group than in the other two groups, possibly because the ramus itself was longer in this group. This information should improve the success rate for inferior alveolar nerve anesthesia and decrease the complications that attend orthognathic surgery.

Microbial metal reduction influences the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and metals as well as plays an important role in the bioremediation of metals, radionuclides, and organic contaminants. The use of bacteria to facilitate the production of magnetite nanoparticles and the formation of carbonate minerals may provide new biotechnological processes for material synthesis and carbon sequestration. Metal-reducing bacteria were isolated from a variety of extreme environments, such as deep terrestrial subsurface, deep marine sediments, water near Hydrothemal vents, and alkaline ponds. Metal-reducing bacteria isolated from diverse extreme environments were able to reduce Fe(III), Mn(IV), Cr(VI), Co(III), and U(VI) using short chain fatty acids and/or hydrogen as the electron donors. These bacteria exhibited diverse mineral precipitation capabilities including the formation of magnetite ($Fe_3$$O_4$), siderite ($FeCO_3$), calcite ($CaCO_3$), rhodochrosite ($MnCO_3$), vivianite [$Fe_3$($PO_4$)$_2$ .$8H_2$O], and uraninite ($UO_2$). Geochemical and environmental factors such as atmospheres, chemical milieu, and species of bacteria affected the extent of Fe(III)-reduction as well as the mineralogy and morphology of the crystalline iron mineral phases. Thermophilic bacteria use amorphous Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide plus metals (Co, Cr, Ni) as an electron acceptor and organic carbon as an electron donor to synthesize metal-substituted magnetite. Metal reducing bacteria were capable of $CO_2$conversion Into sparingly soluble carbonate minerals, such as siderite and calcite using amorphous Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide or metal-rich fly ash. These results indicate that microbial Fe(III)-reduction may not only play important roles in iron and carbon biogeochemistry in natural environments, but also be potentially useful f3r the synthesis of submicron-sized ferromagnetic materials.
