본 연구는 체외에서 돼지정자의 난자 내 침입에 있어서 난구세포의 기능적인 역할을 검토하기 위하여 실시하였다. 체외수정 시 정자침입율은 난구세포 부착 (61%) 난자가 제거 (25%) 된 난자에 비해 높았으나 (P＜0.001), 다정자침입에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 한편 체외수정시 hyaluronidase 를 0, 0.01, 0.1 및 1.0mg/$m\ell$ 농도로 첨가된 배양액내에서 난구세포가 부착된 난자내의 정자침입률은 각각 61, 56, 66 및 39%로 이들 세포를 제거한 난자에서의 침입률 34, 35, 30 및 27%에 비해 높았다. 그러나 다정자침입률은 hyaluronidase의 농도에 관계없이 난구세포를 제거한 난자에서 낮았으며, hyaluronidase의 농도가 높아지면서 다정자침입률이 낮아지는 경향을 나타냈다. 또한 hyaluronidase를 첨가한 배양액내에서 수정후 16 및 24시간에서의 정자침입률은 난구세포를 제거한 경우 (25 및 31%) 보다 난구세포가 부착된 난자 (48 및 62%)에서 높았으며 (P＜0.05), 다정자침입률은 난구세포 제거 시 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다 (P＜0.05). 한편, 난자로부터 채취한 난구세포를 여러 농도로 첨가한 후 난구세포 제거난자를 이용하여 체외수정한 결과 hyal uronidase 첨가보다는 무첨가시 정자의 침입률과 다정자 침입률이 낮게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 난구세포는 정자의 침입에 효과적으로 작용하였으며, hyaluronidase의 첨가와 난구세포수의 조절이 정자의 침입과 다정자침입에 영향을 미치는 것으로 추측되었다.

The purpose of these study was to compare the sealing ability of a injection-molded thermoplasticized gutta-percha and silver amalgam as retroseal material in vitro. Sixty two upper and lower extracted human teeth with single root were randomly selected and instrumented in a conventional method with H-file. After instrumentation the root canal was obturated with gutta-percha by lateral condensation technique with AH26 and an apicoectomy was performed by beveling the root tip 45 angle. In the experimental group 1 and 2, a class I preparation was made and filled with silver amalgam or gutta-percha and in the experimental group 3 an apicoectomy only was performed. All specimens were immersed in black Indian ink, decalcified and cleared. The depth of dye penetration into the canals were evaluated by califer. The results were as follows ; 1. The experimental group 1 displayed the smallest mean dye penetration as 0.45mm. 2. The experimental group 3 displayed the greatest mean dye penetration as 0.65mm. 3. There was the difference in dye penetration between each group, but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).

This study was undertaken in an effort to product embryos through in vitro maturation(IVM), in vitro fertilization(IVF) and in vitro culture(IVC) after cryopreservation of immature and mature porcine oocytes. The experiments were conducted to investigate IVM rate of oocytes frozen with 3 different cryoprotectants and to examine IVF and IVC of frozen-thawed oocytes. The CEI(cumulus cells expansion index) after IVM of frozen-thawed immature oocytes was higher in oocytes frozen with PG＋PEG(propylene glycol plus polyethylene glycol) than those frozen with single cryoprotectant and this index was almost 90% of unfrozen oocyte's index(2.39 vs. 2.66). The IVF rate of all frozen oocytes was very low(68% of unfrozen oocytes) and the IVF rate of frozen immature oocytes was slightly higher than that of frozen mature oocytes(39.0% vs. 34.4%), but polyspermic penetration was higher in frozen immature oocytes(21.9% vs. 19.1%). The cleavage rate after IVF of frozen-thawed oocytes was 9.3% for frozen mature oocytes and 11.3% for frozen immature oocytes and this rate was significantly lower(P<0.05) than that of control(60.7%). The development to 8-cell stage was greatly lower in frozen mature oocytes than in frozen immature oocytes. The results indicate that the use of PG plus PEG as cryoprotectant may be very effective for vitrification of porcine oocytes and the frozen-thawed immature porcine oocytes can be used fro in vitro embryo production based on IVM, IVF and IVC system.

Near Infrared spectroscopy (NIR) used on human skin measurement was explored in the past decade. Many publications in different journals and magazines discussed the feasibility of the NIR technique for cosmetic product property studies. Based upon the results of pioneers, we have pursued some work of the NIR instrument coupled with a probe module for skin measurement in vivo and vitro. In part I of this paper, the specific Near Infrared spectroscopy instrument stability, human subject conditions and other parameters, which could affect the measurements reproducibility are discussed. Second derivative NIR spectra and Principle Components Analysis (PCA) are utilised for data interpretation. In part II of this paper, the relationship of human skin moisture and ageing, the gender information and finally, the discovery of penetration depth of NIR incident light on skin are reported. A theoretical penetration depth calculation equation is proposed. In part III, the study results of a couple of commercial skin care products effect will be described. The skin lotions were applied on human skin (in vivo) in order to exam the NIR feasibility to monitor the changes of moisture level. The results are consistently positive. From our primary study, it can conclude that the NIR is potentially a very powerful instrument for skin condition diagnostics, either for cosmetic and/or for medication purposes.

An in vitro fertilization assay employing zona-free hamster embryos was used to investigate human spermatozoal fertilitzing ability. Yanaghimarchi et al.(1976) first introduced this cross species fertilzation technique, with its application as a diagnostic tool for male infertility. Human spermatozoa were preincubated for 3 to 4 hrs in B W W medium at concentration of $4{\times}10^6$ sperm/ml prior to the addition to zona-free hamster embryos. After 3 hrs, human sperm was evaluated for fertilizing potential by the presence of swelling or decondencing sperm head in the cytoplasm. The results of penetration rates for sperm were as follow : 1. The average penetration rate of a 7 fertile donor group was $47.8{\pm}27.67%$(Range 14.3-98.0%) 2. The average penetration rate of 12 infertile patients with normal semen analysis was $21.7{\pm}26.9%$(Range 0-38.8%) 3. The average penetration rate of 10 infertile patients with semen abnormalities was $6.1{\pm}8.1%$(Range 0-25%)

The present study was designed to test the validity of the semen analysis(S/A) and the sperm penetration assay(SPA) as a prognostic indicator of male fertility in 123 patients undergoing in vitro fertilization(IVF). We attempted to correlate the traditional semen parameters or the extent of sperm penetration in SPA with the results of human IVF rate or cleavage rate. Poor correlation was found between the results of S/A and human IVF rate(sensitivity, 80.6% ;specificity, 46.7%; positive predictive value, 91.6%;negative predictive value, 25%). Conversely, good correlation was found between the results of SPA and human IVF rate(sensitivity, 100% ; specificity, 80% ;positive predictive value, 97.3% ;negative predictive value, 100%). Our results corroborate the conclusion that SPA can be a valuable tool as a prognostic indicator of male fertilizing ability.

본 연구는 돼지 동결-융해 정자의 전배양시 aseorbie acid (Ase)와 ferrous sulfate (Fe$^{2＋}$)가 정자의 수정능력획득, 첨체반응 및 난자내 침입능력에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 정자의 전배양시 0~1.0 mM의 Fe$^{2＋}$의 첨가는 비전배양에 비해 높은 첨체반응 (P＜0.05) 및 정자침입율을 얻었다. 이와 같은 결과는 0~0.5mM의 Ase 첨가 시 첨체반응율에서는 같은 결과를 나타냈지만 정자침입율은 오히려 정자의 전배양 보다는 비전배양시 높은 비율을 나타냈다. 한편, Fe$^{2＋}$가 함유 되어있는 배양액내에서 2시간동안 정자의 전배양시 0.1 mM Asc의 첨가는 0.5 mM Ase의 첨가에 비해 유의적으로 높은 첨체반응율을 나타냈으나 (P＜0.05), Ase의 농도사이에서 정자침입율에는 차이가 없었다. 또한, Ase가 함유된 배양액내에서 정자의 전배양시 0.1 mM Fe$^{2＋}$를 첨가했을 때 첨체반응율은 Fe$^{2＋}$ 무첨가시 유의적으로 높았으나 (P＜0.05), 오히려 가장 낮은 정자침입율을 나타냈다. 이와 같은 결과는 체외에서 돼지정자의 처리시 Fe$^{2＋}$ 또는 Ase의 첨가와 정자의 전배양에 의해 첨체반응과 정자침입에 효과적인 작용을 하는 것으로 생각된다.

The effects of vehicles and penetration enhancers on the in vitro permeation of melatonin through dorsal hairless mouse skin were investigated. Propylene glycol laurate (PGL), isopropyl myristate (IPM), propylene glycol monolaurate (PGML) and propylene glycol monocaprylate (PGMC) showed high permeation fluxes and PGL, PGML and PGMC decreased lag time significantly. In both of the binary co-solvents of diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DGME)-PGL and DGME-IPM, the highest fluxes were achieved at 20% of DGME, which were $10.5{\pm}1.5$ and $9.1{\pm}2.4{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/cm^2/h$, respectively. Among fatty acids used as a permeation enhancer, capric acid and oleic acid in DGME-PGL (80:20 v/v) showed relatively high enhancing effects. Capric acid also shortened the lag time of melatonin from $2.4{\pm}0.7{\;}to{\;}1.3{\pm}0.2{\;}h$. Oleic acid, however, failed to shorten the lag time. Therefore, for effective solution formulations in terms of permeation flux and lag time, capric acid-containing DGME-PGL (80 : 20 v/v) could be used to enhance the skin permeation of melatonin.

To investigate the feasibility of developing a new tenoxicam plaster, the effects of vehicles and penetration enhancers on the in vitro permeation of tenoxicam from a pressure-sensititre adhesive (PSA) matrices across the dorsal hairless mouse skin were studied. Vehicles employed in this study were propylene glycol (PC)-oleyl alcohol (OAI), PG-oleic acid (OA), and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DCMI)-propylene glycol monolaurate (PCML) cosolvents with/without fatty acids. In this studys amines such as triethanolamine (TEA) and tromethamine (TM) were additionally used as a solubilized. Among PSAs used, $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$87-2510 showed much higher release rate than either $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$ 87-2100 or $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$87-2196. The relatively high flux rate was obtained with the formulation of DCMI-PCML (40:60, v/v) with 3% OA and 5% TM, and the flux increased as a function of the dose;the initial flux up to 12 h was $4.98{\pm}1.38{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/{\textrm{cm}^2}/h$ at the tenoxicam dose of $50{\;} mg/70{\;}{\textrm{cm}^2}$. This flux was much higher than that of a commercial piroxicam patch ($Trast^{\circledR}$) ($1.24{\pm}0.73{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/$\textrm{cm}^2/hr$) with almost only one-third that of the commercial patch. Therefore, these observations indicated that these composition of tenoxicam plaster may be practically applicable.
