Many studies have been reported on the successful replacement of missing teeth with osseointegrated dental Implants. However, little research has been carried out on the bio-mechanical aspect of the stress on the surrounding bone of the free-standing type of dental implant prostheses. This experimental study was aimed to analyze the stress distribution pattern on the supporting tissues depending upon the position of osseointegrated implants supporting fixed bridges. In the cases of unilateral partially edentulous mandible (the 2nd premolar and the 1st and 2nd molars missing), two osseointegrated implants were placed at the 2nd premolar and 2nd molar sites (Model A) , the 1st and 2nd molar sites (Model B, Anterior cantilevered type), the 2nd premolar and 1st molar sites (Model C, Posterior cantilevered type). Chewing forces of dentate patients and denture wearer were applied vertically on the 2nd premolar, the 1st molar, and the 2nd molar of each model. A 3-Unit fixed partial denture was constructed at each model and cantilevered extension parts were involved in Model B and Model C. Two dimensional finite element analysis was undertaken. The commercial software (Super SAP) for IBM 16 bit personal computer was utilized. The results were as follows : 1. The magnitude of applied load influenced on the total value of stresses, but did not in-fluence on the pattern of stress distribution. 2. The magnitude of stress developed from the supporting tissues were in order of Model C,Model A,Model B. 3. High stresses were concentrated on the cervical and apical portion of the implant/bone interface. 4. A difference of the stress magnitude on the implant/bone interface between mesial and distal implant was most prominant in Model C and in order of Model A and Model B. 5. The stresses developed in Model A were evenly distributed throughout both implants. 6. The stresses concentrated on the cervical portion of cantilevered side were higher in the posterior cantilevered type than in the anterior cantilevered type.

1,3-butadiene(DB) is a well-established rodent carcinogen, and a probable carcinogen to humans. This study was investigated the formation of hemoglobin adduct in ICR female mice inhaled with BD for 3 weeks (5 hr/day, 5 days/week). Body weights of mice were significantly low from onward day 4 or 9 of exposure comparing the control. Hemoglobin adducts formed by DB exposure were (N-2-hydroxy-3-butenyl) valine (HB Val adduct) and (N-2,3,4-trihydroxy-butyl)valine(THB Val adduct). The levels of HB Val adducts were 1.8, 3.7 and 6.2 pmol/mg globin for the 500 ppm BD inhalation group, and 5.7, 7.4 and 16.0 pmol/mg globin for the 1000 ppm BD inhalation group, when observed on the $1^{st},\;2^{nd},\;and\;3^{rd}$ week after inhalation exposure, respectively. The levels of THBVal adducts were 32.0, 42.0 and 55.0 pmol/mg globin for the 500 ppm DB inhalation group, and 67.8, 72.7 and 83.5 pmol/mg globin for the 1000 ppm BD inhalation group, when observed on the $1^{st},\;2^{nd},\;and\;3^{rd}$ week after inhalation exposure, respectively. Ratios of THBVal and HBVal adducts were higher at earlier exposure period and lower concentration. Ratios on the $1^{st},\;2^{nd},\;and\;3^{rd}$ week were 17.8, 11.4 and 8.87 for the 500 ppm BD inhalation group, and 11.9, 9.8 and 5.2 for the 1000 ppm BD inhalation group, respectively. In conclusion, THB Val and HB Val adducts were the important hemoglobin adducts in ICR female mice inhaled with BD, and the latter was more appropriate biomarker than the other for biological monitoring of BD exposure.

As the test results for surface color, dyeing durability, antibiosis of cotton fabrics and silk fabrics dyed with Agastache rugosa extract, the following conclusions were obtained. The surface color of all the dyed fabrics was confirmed mostly as a GY system. As the result of chrominance(${\Delta}E_{ab}$) measurement, in the case of cotton fabrics the dyed fabrics treated with $Al_2(SO_4)_3$ mordant showed the highest value and in the case of silk fabrics the non-mordant dyed fabrics showed the highest value. The dyeing durability of test fabrics dyed with Agastache rugosa extract are as follows. As the test results of colorfastness to laundry for cotton dyed fabrics, the discoloration degree showed 1st-2nd grade and the contamination degree showed 4th-5th grade. As the test result of colorfastness to dry cleaning for silk dyed fabrics, the contamination degree showed from 1st to 3rd-4th grade. As the test results of colorfastness to acid artificial perspiration, the discoloration degree showed from 1st to 3rd-4th grade and the contamination degree showed from 3rd to 4th-5th grade. As the test results of colorfastness to alkaline artificial perspiration, the discoloration degree showed from 1st to 4th grade and the contamination degree showed from 3rd to 4th-5th grade. The colorfastness to sunlight showed from 1st to 2nd grade. The colorfastness to rubbing showed from 3rd to 4th-5th grade in dry process and from 2nd-3rd to 4th-5th grade in wet process. As the test results of antibiosis, the decrease rate of germs to virus Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus showed at least more than 99% after the wash of 10 times. As the test results of antifungal activity to mycete Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Aspergillus niger, the both cotton and silk dyed fabrics didn't gain the significant antifungal effect.

In case of implant-tooth connected prosthesis, a natural tooth tends to intrude. There are several mechanisms that explain an intrusion phenomenon. So it is reco mmended not to connect an implant with a natural tooth. A 68-year-old female had upper left $2^{nd}$ premolar and $2^{nd}$ molar extracted and underwent implant surgery on the missing area. We made an implant prosthesis and treated upper left $1^{st}$ molar with a gold crown. 2.5 year later, the patient complained about loose proximal contact and food impaction between upper left $1^{st}$ molar and $2^{nd}$ molar. Mesial side of upper left $2^{nd}$ molar implant prosthesis was soldered so that proximal contact became tight again. But after 7 months, about 2 mm intrusion of upper left $1^{st}$ molar occurred, and the patient felt periodontally originated pain on intruded upper left $1^{st}$ molar. After the gold crown on upper left $1^{st}$ molar was removed, extrusion occurred and pain was relived.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cell adhesion and anoikis evasion among human osteosarcoma cells (MG-63), and to further study the molecular mechanisms. Materials and Methods: Human osteosarcoma cells (MG-63) were assessed for apoptosis, and caspase-3, E-cadherin and ${\beta}$-catenin expression in EDTA and control non-EDTA groups. Results: MG-63 cells were predominantly aggregated when in suspension, and the suspended cells were more dispersed in the EDTA group. Following culture in suspension for 24 h, 48 h, or 72 h, the rates of apoptosis were $34.88%{\pm}3.64%$, $59.3%{\pm}7.22%$ and $78.5%{\pm}5.21%$ in the experimental group and $7.34%{\pm}2.13%$, $14.7%{\pm}3.69%$, and $21.4%{\pm}3.60%$ in the control group, respectively. Caspase-3 expression progressively increased and E-cadherin and ${\beta}$-catenin were decreased in the experimental group, whereas there was no change in the control group. Conclusions: MG-63 cells could avoid anoikis through cell adhesion, and E-cadherin might play a role in this process.

Paleomagnetic and geological studies of volcanic and sedimentary rocks of Jeju Island have been carried out to determine the position of virtual geomagnetic pole(VGP), and to estimate the geological sequence and their age. As a result of paleomagnetic studies, the reversal polarities are measured in the Sanbangsan trachyte and Hwasun formation, and the normal are the rest. In case of normal polarity, the mean values of declination and inclination are $2.3^{\circ}$ and $48.4^{\circ}$, respectively, and the average value of VGP is $85.4^{\circ}N$ and $79.9^{\circ}W$. The locations of VGP's are coincident with those obtained from world-wide Plio-Pleistocene rocks. The Hwasun formation and Seongsan formation which have been known to be sedimented in the similar time in the 2nd-stage of volcanic eruption, possess reversal and normal polarities, respectively. This fact brings about the result that two formations should be separated in a sense of geological sequence. Consequently, the geological sequence of the 2nd-stage of volcanic eruption is Pyoseonri basalt-Seoguipo hawaiite-Hwasun formation-Seongsan formation-Jungmun hawaiite-Sanbangsan trachyte. Referring to the paleomagnetic studies and the previous and present geological studies, Seoguipo formation corresponds to the Gauss normal epoch, the 2nd-stage of volcanic eruption to Matuyama reversed epoch, and the 3rd-, 4th-, and 5th-stages to Brunhes normal epoch. Therefore, the Seoguipo formation is mostly sedimented during late Pliocene and/or presumably extended to the early Pleistocene. The rocks of the 2nd- to 5th-stage are formed later than this.

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate effect by split-application of slow-release fertilizer on the tea plant. The yield of the 2nd harvested tea leaves was not different to the slow-release fertilizer of two time split manuring had been doing Sep. or Mar. compared with the traditional manuring had been doing four time split manuring, but that of the slow-release fertilizer to one time split manuring in Sep. had decreased $12.5{\pm}1.5%$. In case of the 2nd harvested leave, the contents of chemical components related to quality such as total nitrogen, total amino acid were somewhat higher in the slow-release fertilizer (two time split manuring) than in the traditional manuring, but those of tannin, and caffeine were low, and those of chlorophyll, vitamin C, free sugar and theanine were not different to out of treatments. In scoring test, appearance and quality of green tea were more excellence in the two time split manuring compared with one time split manuring of slow-release fertilizer and with the traditional manuring (four time split manuring). Therefore, I thought that use of slow-release fertilizer be increased yield and quality of tea leaves, and improved efficiency nature of nitrogen, phosphate and potassium out of soil fertilizer components.

Currently, there are many kinds of tracked armored vehicles in service and they have encountered various environment and situations. So there are many obstacles to operate them improperly such as an engine stall. The causes of engine stall are an insufficient fueling, a mixture of air-fuel or vapor lock, and load increment which results from a rapid steering or increasing a viscosity of lubricant by low temperature. In this paper, engine stall by load increment due to a rapid steering or increasing of lubricant viscosity on tracked armored vehicles is analyzed, the ways to prevent it are applied, and their degrees of improvement are evaluated.

Particulate materials (PM) less than 10 ${\mu}m$ in diameter are of special interest in air pollution because they are respirable and responsible for the increasing mortality rate of lung cancer and cardiovascular diseases. These particles are often referred to as $PM_{10}$ and they are divided into a coarse fraction and a fine fraction which is also often referred to as $PM_{25}$. In this study, we monitored the TSP, $PM_{10},\;PM_{2.5}$ concentration of ambient air collected in northern part of Seoul in early spring and measured the concentration of heavy metals; Cr, Mn, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb. All the heavy metals were found in the collected particles and the concentrations were variable in the $PM_{10},\;and\;PM_{2.5}$ respectively. The detected concentration ranges were Cr: $ND\~2,889ng/m^3,\;Mn:2.4\~257.9ng/m^3,\;Zn:ND\~353.7ng/m^3,\; As:ND\~22.3ng/m^3,\;Cd:0.1\~2.9ng/m^3,\;and\;Pb:ND\~392.2ng/m^3$ in fine particles. Heavy metal toxicity of the particles were also tested in $H_9C_2$ cell line derived from rat cardiomyocytes. As for the results of health risk assessment calculated by unit risk of IRIS, heavy metals in ambient air of Seoul metropolitan area were found to be responsible for the increase of total excess cancer risk. Among them, chromium (hexavalent) was found to be the most risky in fine particles of ambient air collected in the northern part of Seoul in early spring.
