재발한 vulva tumor의 근접 치료에 있어서 정상조직의 장애와 tumor volume내의 dose uniformity는 치료성적에 매우 중요한 요인이다. 이를 개선하기 위하여 modified MUPIT applicator를 제작하여 modified MUPIT applicator의 적용에 대한 유용성을 평가하고자 한다. modified MUPIT applicator는 template, cylinder, interstitial needle로 구성되었으며, tumor volume을 정하기 위하여 CT를 시행하였다. CT image를 이용하여 interstitial needle의 삽입 위치를 확인하고 수술실에서 template 를 치료 부위에 고정을 시키고 cylinder를 vaginal cavity에 삽입한 후 interstitial needle을 tumor volume 내에 삽입 하였다. tumor volume내에서 interstitial needle의 정확한 위치를 확인하기 위하여 CT를 시행하였으며 orthogonal film을 이용하여 computer planning을 실시하였다. daily tumor dose는 600 cGy, BID로 3000 cGy를 조사하였으며 치료 시 rectal dose를 평가하기 위하여 TLD를 이용하여 anal verge를 기준으로 5개 지점에서 rectal dose를 측정하였다. rectal dose는 34.1 cGy, 57.1 cGy, 103.8 cGy, 162.7 cGy, 165.7 cGy로 측정되었으며 EBRT(whole pelvis RT), ICR과 overlap되는 지점은 34.1 cGy, 57.1 cGy로 매우 우수하게 평가되었다. 결론적으로 자체 제작한 modified MUPIT applicator 사용하여 interstitial brachytherapy를 시행함으로써 EBRT로 cover하기 어려운 환자의 tumor volume내에서 irregularity를 효율적으로 극복할 수 있었고 우수한 rectal dose 분포를 통하여 rectal complication의 발생 확률을 현저히 감소시킬 수 있었다.

Purpose : This article is to describe a modified device for intraoral radiography which was developed to obtain reproducible radiographic images for assessment of distal osseous defects of the mandibular second molar (2 Mm) after impacted third molar (3 Mm) surgery. Materials and Methods : A commercial available alignment system for posterior region was modified by adding a reference gauge pin (millimetric) and threading a hollow acrylic cylinder at the ring of the radiographic positioner to attach the X-ray collimator. The design included customized resin acrylic stent for the occlusal surface of the 2Mm in maximum intercuspal position, individualizing the biteblock positioner. Periapical radiographs were taken before and after surgical extraction of 3 Mm, employing the radiographic technique of parallelism described by Kugelberg (1986) with this modified film holder and inserting the gauge pin on the deepest bone probing depth point. Results : This technique permitted to obtain standardized periapical radiographs with a moderate to high resolution, repeatability, and accuracy. There was no difference between the measurements on the pre- and post-operative radiographs. This technique allowed better maintenance of the same geometric position compared with conventional one. The insertion of the gauge pin provided the same reference point and localized the deepest osseous defect on the two-dimensional radiographs. Conclusion : This technique allowed better reproducibility in posterior radiographic records (distal surface of 2 Mm) and more accurate measurements of radiographic bone level by the use of a millimetric pin.

폴리프로필렌 다공성 분리막은 산, 알칼리에 대한 내화학성이 좋고, 기계적 성질이 우수하며 높은 열적 안정성을 가지고 있으나, 막의 소수성 때문에 일부 영역에만 사용이 제한되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 소수성 막의 성능을 향상시키기 위해서 방사선 조사에 의한 그라프트 중합법을 사용하여, 친수성 작용기 (-COOH, -OH)를 갖는 acrylic acid (AAc)와 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (MEMA)를 도입하였다. 이때 반응시간, 반응온도, 조사량, 간의 첨가 효과, 팽윤현상에 의한 그라프트율의 변화를 조사하였다. 분리막의 기공크기를 분석하는 방법으로 행한 가스투과 실험에서 단량체의 종류와 관계없이 그라프트가 증가함에 따라 가스 투과속도가 감소함을 보였고, 오일 에멀젼 투과실험에서 미개질 폴리프로필렌 막의 오염현상은 크게 발생하였으나, 그라프트 중합 후, 높은 투과속도를 유지하여 막의 친수화 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 2-EHA (2-ethyl hexyl acrylate), 2-EHMA (2-ethyl hexyl methacrylate), 2-HEA (2-Hydroxy ethyl acrylate), acrylic acid 모노머를 이용하여 hydroxy기를 가진 아크릴 수지 점착제를 합성한 후 MOI (Methacryloyloxyethyl isocyanate) 또는 2-isocyanatoethyl methacrylate의 투입량 조절을 통한 경화특성을 향상시킬 수 있는 adduct 반응을 시킨 이소시아네이트 변성 아크릴 수지 점착제를 제조하였다. 시험 결과 초기 점착력과 박리 접착강도는 MOI와 가교제인 isocyanate의 양이 증가할수록 감소하였다. UV 조사후, MOI와 가교제인 isocyanate의 양이 증가할수록 높은 경화특성 때문에 박리접착 강도는 좀 더 낮아지는 결과를 가져왔다.

Industrialization and modern developments have led to an influx of toxic heavy metals into the aquatic environment, and the accumulation of heavy metals has serious adverse effects on humans. Among the various heavy metal treatment methods, adsorption is very useful and frequently used. Plastic materials, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, have been widely used as filter media due to their mechanical and chemical stability. However, the surface of plastic material is inert and therefore the adsorption capability of heavy metals is very limited. In this study, granular media and fiber media composed of polypropylene and polyethylene are used, and the surface modification was conducted in order to increase adsorption capability toward heavy metals. Oxygen plasma generated hydroxyl groups on the surface of the media to activate the surface, and then acrylic acid was synthesized on the surface. The grafted carboxyl group was confirmed by FT-IR and SEM. Heavy metal adsorption capability of pristine and surface modified adsorbents was also evaluated. Overall, heavy metal adsorption capability was increased by surface modification due to electrostatic interaction between the carboxyl groups and heavy metal ions. Fibrous PP/PE showed lower improvement compared to granular PP media because pore blockage occurred by the surface modification step, thereby inhibiting mass transfer.

Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) was identified to possess good mucoadhesive properties ensuring its application to extend the retention times of the formulations at the oral cavity, intended route of administration using the polymer. In the noncross-linked state, PAA will swell and become eroded owing to the presence of salivary flow from the site of application. The formation of cross-links between the polymer chains will allow swelling but prevents the erosion of the dosage form. In the current study, cross-linking was achieved by esterification of the PAA chains with sucrose. The density of crosslinking was modified by changing sucrose concentration and the duration of cure time. The cross-linking density of the polymer hydrogel was assessed by equilibrium swelling studies. The mucoadhesion testing method allowed a comparative study of the hydrogels prepared. An inverse relationship between equilibrium swelling and peak detachment force showed that increased PAA chain density per unit area enhanced the mucoadhesive interaction.

PURPOSE. This laboratory study aimed to investigate the effect of doping an acrylic denture base resin material with nanoparticles of ZnO, CaO, and $TiO_2$ on biofilm formation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Standardized specimens of a commercially available cold-curing acrylic denture base resin material were doped with 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, or 0.8 wt% commercially available ZnO, CaO, and $TiO_2$ nanopowder. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) was used to identify the availability of the nanoparticles on the surface of the modified specimens. Surface roughness was determined by employing a profilometric approach; biofilm formation was simulated using a monospecies Candida albicans biofilm model and a multispecies biofilm model including C. albicans, Actinomyces naeslundii, and Streptococcus gordonii. Relative viable biomass was determined after 20 hours and 44 hours using a MTT-based approach. RESULTS. No statistically significant disparities were identified among the various materials regarding surface roughness and relative viable biomass. CONCLUSION. The results indicate that doping denture base resin materials with commercially available ZnO, CaO, or $TiO_2$ nanopowders do not inhibit biofilm formation on their surface. Further studies might address the impact of varying particle sizes as well as increasing the fraction of nanoparticles mixed into the acrylic resin matrix.

Preliminary study was perfomed to develop a biocompatible filter material using radiation energy. Electrosppined PLLA nano sheets were surface-modificated with hydrophilic groups(acrylic group) by using radiation. The physico-chemical and morphological characteristics of modified PLLA sheets were measured by ATR, SEM, contact angle, and hydrophilic (acryl group) introduction rate (TBO). As a result, there was no morphological(fiber structure) structure change due to radiation, and it was confirmed that an acrylic group was successfully introduced onto PLLA fiber sheet by radiation.

Polyacrylontrile fiber was modified with argon low temperature plasma by RF glow discharge at 240 mTorr, 40 W to investigate the surface morphological changes and mechanical characteristics such as elongation, tenacity, and modulus. Analysis of the SEM images revealed that the plasma treatment resulted in significant ablation on the surfaces rendering a severe crack formation. The morphological changes were evident with short treatment time of argon plasma although longer treatment time damaged the surface more severely. The mechanical characteristics such as tenacity and elongation were deteriorated due to the plasma treatment. The tenacity of the fiber treated with argon-plasma for 5 min showed a decreased value up to 21.9 % when compared to the untreated fiber. While the corresponding initial modulus(0 - 1 %) increased markedly up to 44.3 %.
