The well-established Universal Powder Press UPP, designed by the Swiss press manufacturer Osterwalder AG in Lyss, went through a major improvement process. The result is a high efficient production machine with state-of-the-art technology. It will be shown the technical design, some process engineering as well as the influence of PRP - =Part-Related-Programming, first published in 1994 - on the set-up time. This development has enabled Osterwalder to round off their range of presses, the mechanical-hydraulic KPP as well as the hydraulic CA-NC II and UPP, to an attractive offer ranging from 120 kN up to 10'000 kN.

The anti-coagulant activity of ilexoside D isolated from the roots of ilex pubescens Hook. et Am. was investigated in in vivo models of blood coagulation in rats. On oral administration, ilexoside D prolonged the bleeding time and the whole blood recalcified clotting time, but not the plasma recalcified clotting time. In vitor, ilexoside D did not affect the recalciffed clotting times of whole blood, platelet-rich plasma(PRP), and platelet-poor plasma(PPP), while in the presence of tissue factor the compound prologed the reduced proth-rombin times of whole blood, PRP and PPP in the dose-dependent manner. These results indicate that ilexoside D has the anit-tissue factor activity as well as the antithromobotic activity.

Effects of titanium dioxide nanoparticles on blood coagulation and platelet aggregation were investigated using diluted whole blood and platelet rich plasma (PRP) solution prepared from human and rat blood, respectively. Blood coagulation was monitored by using a whole blood impedance aggregometer and titanium dioxide nanoparticle (10, 20, and 40 ppm) did not show any effect on the coagulation both in human and in rat blood. When platelet aggregation was measured by turbidometric method after addition of titanium dioxide nanoparticles to PRP solution with final concentrations of 1, 5 and 10 ppm. no aggregation was observed.

In vitro inhibitory effect of aspalatone ((3-(2-methyl-4-pyronyl)]-2-acetyloxybenzoate) on collagen-, ADP-, and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation in human platelet rich plasma (PRP) was compared with the effects of reference drugs (acetylsalicylic acid, cilostazol and ticlopidine). Aspalatone inhibited time and dose dependently human platelet aggregation induced by collagen; relative potency was in the order of cilostazol>acetylsalicylic acid>aspalatone>ticlopidine. Aspalatone, like acetylsalicylic acid, potently inhibited only the secondary phase of ADP-and epinephrine-induced aggregation. Thromboxane $B^2$ production evoked by collagen in human PRP was inhibited significantly and concentration-dependently by aspalatone and acetylsalicylic acid. These results were in agreement with the earlier studies in which the antiplatelet action of aspalatone was indicated to be due to the inhibition of platelet cyclooxygenase activity (Han et al., Arzneim. Forsch./Drug Res. 44(II), 1122, 1994; Suh and Han, Yakhak Hoeji 39, 565, 1995). In addition, the inhibitory activity of aspalatone on the platelet aggregation appears to be inversely related to the rate of nonspecific deacetylation of the drug in plasma.

An efficacy test of PRP (polyribosylribitol phosphate)-TT (Tetanus toxoid) conjugate vaccines was carried out using BALB/c mice as an animal model by inoculating Haemophilus in­fluenzae type b (Hib) with a virulence enhancement factor (VEF). Three administrations of the conjugate vaccines at 2-week intervals elicited a significantly high level of PRP antibodies (P>0.0001). The protective activity of the PRP immunization was challenged with either Hib with iron dextran (Hib/) or with a combination of mucin and hemoglobin (Hibmh) as a VEF. The me­dium lethal dose $(LD_{50})$ for Hibmh and Hibiwas measured as 10 CFU (Colony Forming Unit) and $2.5{\times}10^{8}$ CFU respectively. Each immunized animal was challenged with five or ten times the $LD_{50}$ level of bacteria with a VEF. A significant difference in mortality between the immunized and control mice (P> 0.01) was observed with the Hibmh challenge inoculation but not with the Hibi challenge inoculation. These results show that a combination of mucin and hemoglobin was able to enhance the virulence of Hib in BALB/c mice to cause a lethal infection, thus suggesting that BALB/c mice introduced to this method can be an effective model animal for testing the protective efficacy of H. influenzae conjugate vaccines.

Pulp revascularization is an alternative treatment in immature traumatized teeth with necrotic pulp. However, this procedure has not been reported in horizontal root fractures. This is a case report of a 9-year-old patient with multiple horizontal root fractures in 2 upper central incisors that were successfully treated with pulp revascularization. The patient presented for treatment 2 years after the initial trauma, and revascularization was attempted after the initial treatment with calcium hydroxide had failed. Prior to pulp revascularization, cone-beam computed tomography and autoradiograms demonstrated multiple horizontal fractures in the middle and apical thirds of the roots of the 2 affected teeth. Revascularization was performed in both teeth; platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was used in one tooth (#11) and the conventional method (blood clot) was used in the other tooth (#21). Clinical and radiographic follow-up over 4 years demonstrated pulp calcification in the PRP-treated tooth. Neither of the 2 teeth were lost, and the root canal calcification of tooth #11 was greater than that of tooth #21. This case suggests that PRP-based pulp revascularization may be an alternative for horizontal root fractures.

Impaired responsiveness of platelets to epinephrine (epi) and other catecholamines (CA) has been reported in approximately 20% of the healthy Korean and Japanese populations. In the present study, platelet aggregation induced by epi was potentiated by RO 31-8220 (RO) or G$\ddot{o}$ 6983 (G$\ddot{o}$). Phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) was very low in epi-stimulated PRP from CA-hypo- responders (CA-HY), whereas it was detected in those from CA-good responders (CA-GR). RO and G$\ddot{o}$ increased p-Akt, one of the major downstream effectors of phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K), in epi-stimulated PRP from both groups. Wortmannin, a PI3K inhibitor, attenuated the RO or G$\ddot{o}$-induced potentiation of p-Akt in epi-stimulated PRP, suggesting positive effects for RO and G$\ddot{o}$ on PI3K. $TXA_2$ formation was increased by the addition of either RO or G$\ddot{o}$ in epi-stimulated platelets. The present data also suggest that impaired Akt phosphorylation may be responsible for epinephrine hypo-responsiveness of platelets.

Several agents are in use to promote new bone formation during bone graft procedures in maxillofacial region. Among them, we have used crude BMP, PRP, and P-15 for experimentally created defects with accompanying graft materials in the rabbit model. The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of above mentioned agents on bone formation using histologic and histomorphometrical methods, thus to provide experimental support for clinical application of these agents. Six rabbits were used as experimental animals. Four surgical defects were created on the distal femoral heads of each animal using trephine drill. The defects were filled with each agents with accompaning graft materials as experimental groups and particulate corti-co-cancellous autogenous graft as control. For histomorphometric analysis, fluorescent dye was injected at 2week and 1week before sacrifice. Then, the animals were sacrificed at 2, 4 and 8weeks after surgery and histologic and histomorphometric examinations were achieved. At two weeks after bone graft, bone formation and active remodeling process were examined in all experimental groups and the control. But the intensity of such activities of the experiments were somewhat weaker than that of the control. In BMP group, the amount of newly formed osteoid was increased constantly and the amount was preserved constantly in PRP group. But in P-15 group, the amount of newly formed osteoid was decreased with time to 8week after surgery. Histologic findings showed superior bony quantity and quality in PRP group than that of P-15 group. MAR(Mineralization Apposition Rate) of all experimental groups were slower than that of control group. In P-15 group, constant foreign body reaction was observed at all periods and the graft material showed inwardly destroyed characteristics rather to mature. The data from this study provide the basis for future studies for evaluating the long-term remodeling process and foreign body reactions observed in P-15 group and clinical study for predictable use of these agents.
