  • 호흡동조방사선치료에서 비동일 평면치료는 테이블의 회전이 있기 때문에 테이블의 회전에 따른 적외선 카메라와 마커 사이의 거리 변화로 인하여 마커 움직임의 인식을 Real-time Position Management 시스템의 two dot 마커와 six dot 마커의 움직임 반영의 정확성을 평가하고자 한다. 움직임을 평가는 two dot 마커에서 테이블 각도를 시계방향, 반시계방향으로 각 $10^{\circ}$씩 변화하여 측정하였으며, six dot 마커에서도 테이블 각도를 시계방향으로 각 $10^{\circ}$ 변화하여 기준 $0^{\circ}$에서의 기준과 비교하였을 때 기준 진폭 1.173에서 1.165, 테이블 각도 $20^{\circ}$에서는 1.132, 테이블 각도 $30^{\circ}$에서는 1.083의 진폭값으로 나타났다. 반시계방향으로 $350^{\circ}$에서는 기준 진폭 1.168에서 1.157, 테이블 각도 $340^{\circ}$에서는 1.124, 테이블 각도 $330^{\circ}$에서는 1.079 진폭값으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 팬톰을 이용하여 테이블 변화에 따른 진폭의 값을 정량적으로 평가한 점에 학술적 의미를 두고자 한다.

  • The role of radiographic imaging in determining the size, numbers and the position of implants is very important. To perform the implant procedure, the dentist needs to evaluate the bone pathology and bone density, and to know the precise height, width, and contour of the alveolar process, as well as its relationship to the maxillary sinus and mandibular canal. The author analyzed 3 implant cases for treatment planning with the cone beam CT. All axial, panoramic, serial and buccolingual-sectioned images of 3 cases with stent including vertical marker were taken by using Mercuray (Hitachi, Japan). When the curved line drawn intentionally did not include dot image of a vertical marker on the axial image of CBCT, the image of the vertical marker was deformed on its buccolingually sectioned image. There was wide discrepancy in inclination between the alveolar bone and tooth on buccolingually sectioned image.

  • Colloidal semiconductor CdSe-ZnS core-shell nanocrystal quantum dot (Qdot) are luminescent inorganic fluorophores that show potential to overcome some of the functional limitations encountered with organic dyes in fluorescence labeling applications. Salmonella Enteritidis has emerged as a major cause of human salmonellosis worldwide since the 1980s. A rapid, specific, and sensitive method for the detection of Salmonella Enteritidis was developed using Qdot as a fluorescence marker coupled with immunomagnetic separation. Magnetic beads coated with anti-Salmonella Enteritidis antibodies were employed to selectively capture the target bacteria, and biotin-conjugated anti-Salmonella antibodies were added to form sandwich immune complexes. After magnetic separation, the immune complexes were labeled with Qdot via biotin-streptavidin conjugation, and fluorescence measurement was carried out using a fluorescence measurement system. The detection limit of the Qdot method was a Salmonella Enteritidis concentration of $10^3$ colony-forming units (CFU)/mL, whereas the conventional fluorescein isothiocyanate-based method required over $10^5CFU/mL$. The total detection time was within 2 h. In addition to the potential for general nanotechnology development, these results suggest a new rapid detection method of various pathogenic bacteria from a complex food matrix.

  • A female hemihypertrophy patient with hypomelanosis of Ito is presented as a rare case combining classical features of both the syndrome. Chromosomal profile has been based on longitudinal study of repeated lymphocyte cultures during 1984-1992. The propositus has exhibited chromosomal mosaicism both hypoploid ($42{\pm}1$) and hyperploid ($48{\pm}2$ chromosome) counts, but the major stem line presented 46XX chromosomes. Ring chromosome with simple and complex translocations with marker dots appear to be the major cytogenetic assemblage of this child to posses unequal left and right halves of the body. Each and every organ from toe to the head has grown up unequally and lately the patient had been exhibiting different dark and light shapes of melanin on the skin. We believe that the patient had inherited, through her male parent, "a few" mutated loci on some chromosomes so as to generate different cell lines within the developing child. All sibs and the mother showed normal karyotype with no apparent aberration.

  • 본 논문은 여성 자궁경부암의 원인이 되는 인두유종 바이러스(papillomavirus)를 진단하기 위한 HPY-DNA 칩의 영상으로부터 탐촉자(probe)의 위치를 찾아내고 각 탐촉자에서의 교잡반응(hybridization) 여부를 결정하기 위한영상리 방법의 구현에 관한 것이다. HPV-DNA 칩은 22종의 HPV를 알아내기 위한 탐촉자들과 환자 샘플과 항상 반응하는 마커들로 구성되어 있다. 침 영상에서 탐촉자 들의 위치는 마커와 상대적으로 고정되어 있어서 도터(dotter)와 스캐너(scanner)의 정밀도에 따른 오차만을 갖는다. 한편 각 탐촉자는 진단신뢰도를 높이기 위하여 4번 씩 인쇄된다. 본 논문은 마커들간의 상대거리와 탐촉자의 중복 인쇄라는 사전정보를 템플릿 정합방법과 결합하여 안정적으로 마커를 찾고, 교잡반응 여부를 정확히 분류하는 방법을 제시한다. 정규화된 상관도를 정합도(matching measure)로 채택하여, 마커들의 상대적 위치에 대하여 평균을 취하면 안정적으로 마커를 찾을 수 있다는 것을 실험을 통하여 보인다. 또한 이미 계산된 정합도를 특징(feature) 값으로 사용하여 4개의 중복 탐촉자에 대한 평균 특징 값을 분류(classification)하면 탐촉자의 교잡반응 여부를 정확히 알아낼 수 있다는 실험 결과를 보인다.

  • Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) exhibit strong Raman signals as well as fluorescence emissions in the near infrared regions where most biomolecules are transparent. Such signals do not blink or photobleach under prolonged excitation. which is advantageous to optical nano-bio marker applications. In this paper, single walled carbon nanotubes are conjugated with specific types of single-stranded DNA in order to detect oligonucleotides of corresponding complimentary sequences. Dot blotting experiments and comparative Raman spectroscopy observations demonstrated excellent sensitivity and specificity of carbon nanotube-DNA probes. The results show the possibility of using SWNT as generic nano-bio markers for the precise detection of specific kinds of genes.

  • Background: Uroplakins have been widely investigated as potential markers in patients with bladder cancer because these proteins are specific to the urothelium. However, the role of uroplakin proteins in bladder cancer remains unknown. In this study, preoperative serum levels of uroplakin III were measured in patients with urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder and examined for possible association with clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes. Materials and Methods: This study included 52 bladder cancer patients at various stages and 28 healthy controls. Uroplakin III levels were detected in preoperative sera using an automated dot blot system and a micro-dot blot array. Results: There was a significant increase in serum uroplakin III levels in patients with bladder cancer as compared to healthy controls (p<0.05). In addition, serum uroplakin III levels were associated with muscle-invasive status, high grade and lymphovascular invasion (p<0.02). Log-rank tests indicated high serum uroplakin III to be significantly associated with cancer-specific mortality. Conclusions: Determination of serum uroplakin III level could be valuable for identifying patients with biologically aggressive bladder cancer.

  • 종자를 자연건조시킨 상태에서 ${\beta}-glucuronidase$ (GUS) 유전자와 hygromycin phosphotransferase (HPT) 유전자를 가진 plasmid DNA 용액을 imbibition시켰다. GUS 유전자의 경우 품종, vector의 종류, imbibition의 온도에 따라 표지유전자의 발현율에 차이가 있었으며 약 30-50%의 transient expression을 나타내었다. Hygromycin B (HmB)배지에서 선별된 개체의 genomic DNA를 뽑아 외부유전자의 존재를 dot 분석을 통하여 확인하였다. Inverse polymerase chain reaction 결과 만들어지는 생성물을 cloning하고 sequencing한 결과 CaMV35S promoter sequence를 찾았다. Hygromycin이 첨가된 배지에서 선별된 개체들에서 GUS 유전자의 primer를 이용하여 PCR를 수행한 결과 20개체 중 18개체에서 GUS 유전자가 안정되게 존재하여 HmB 배지에서 GUS 유전자의 존재비율은 90%였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 두 개의 유전자를 소유한 pYJH vector system이 고등식물의 형질전환에 유용하게 이용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구는 느타리버섯 갈반병 병원균인 pseudomonas tolaasii의 진단을 위한 분자 marker를 개발하기 위해 수행되었다. 세균의 반복염기서열과 펙틴 분해효소 유전자로부터 제작된 여러개의 primer들을 이용해 식용버섯으로부터 분리된 Pseudomonas종들로부터 DNA 다형성을 유도한 바펙틴 분해 효소로부터 제작된 PEU1 primer는 다른 Pseudomonas종들로부터 P. tolaasii를 구분시키는 다형성 밴드를 생성하였다. P. tolaasii 6균주에 공통적으로 나타나는 1.0kb와 0.4kb의 두 가지 밴드를 pGEM-T에 클로닝하고 이들을 각기 pPTOP1과 pPTOP2로 명명하고 probe로 이용하였다. 0.4kb 크기의 pPTOP2의 삽입 DNA는 P. tolaasii 6균주와 hybridization이 이루어진 반면 다른 Pseudomonas종과는 반응하지 않았다. 0.4kb크기의 pPTOP2의 삽입 DNA를 probe로 이용해 dot blot hybridization한 결과 P. tolaasii는 $1.5{\times}10^3\;cfu$까지 검출이 가능함을 확인하였다.

  • A PCR method has been developed for the pathovar-specific detection of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tagetis, which is the causal agent of bacterial leaf spots and apical chlorosis of several species within the Compositae family. One primer set, PSTF and PSTR, was designed using a genomic locus derived from an amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) fragment produced a 554-bp amplicon from 4 isolates of P. syringae pv. tagetis. In DNA dot-blot analysis with the PCR product as probe, a positive signal was identified in only 4 isolates of P. syringae pv. tagetis. These results suggest that this PCR-based assay will be a useful method for the detection and identification of P. syringae pv. tagetis.
