The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two polishing methods and chemical conditioning on the surface of hybrid composites. Ninety cylindrical specimens (diameter：8mm, depth：2mm) were made with three hybrid composites-Filtek Z250, Tetric Ceram. DenFil. Specimens for each composite were randomly divided into three treatment subgroups $^{\circled1}$ Mylar strip (no treatment). $^{\circled2}$ Sof-Lex XT system, $^{\circled3}$ PoGo system. Average surface roughness(Ra) was taken using a surface profilometer at the time of setting and after immersion into 0.02N lactic acid for 1 week and 1 month. Representative specimens were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and Scheffe's tests at 0.05% significance level. The results were as follows：1. Mylar strip resulted in smoother surface than PoGo and Sof-Lex system (p<0.001). Sof-Lex system gave the worst results. 2. Tetric Ceram was smoother than DenFil and Z250 when cured under only mylar strip. However, it was significantly rougher than other materials when polished with PoGo system. 3. All materials showed rough surface after storage in 0.02N lactic acid, except groups polished with a PoGo system. The PoGo system gave a superior polish than Sof-Lex system for the three composites. However. the correlation to clinical practice may be limited, since there are several processes. such as abrasive, fatigue, and corrosive mechanisms. Thus. further studies are needed for polishing technique under in vivo conditions.

The high surface area polymer, AquaMats$^{circledR}$ was used for the leachate purification process originated from the Samsan Dong Landfill in Ulsan Metropolitan City. And then, three species of dominant microbes were isolated and identified from AquaMats$^{circledR}$. Gram staining revealed these microbes to be Gram-negative rod strains: They were identified as Agrobacterium radiobacter, Pseudomonas cepacia, Flavobacterium indologenes. All they showed no growth on media in which the leachate was added alone, but a rapid proliferation rate on media with yeast extract as nutrient requirements.

Eudragit $RS^{\circledR}$ polymer was used as a wall material for the microencapsulation of aspirin by a phase separation method from chloroform-cyclohexane system with 5% polyisobutylene (PIB) in cyclohexane, and microcapsules obtained were evaluated by particle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), drug release and drug stability test. With PIB as a coacervation inducing agent, smooth and tight microcapsules with less aggregation were obtained. Below 1 : 0.3 core-wall ratio, it was possible to coat individual particle. Variation of production conditions showed that increasing the proportion of wall material, particle size and wall thickness of microcapsules and the concentration of paraffin wax in cyclohexane as a sealant sustained drug release rates effectively. SEM confirmed that larger microcapsules after drug release did not rupture into smaller particles but contained a few small pores on the surface. Aspirin release from Eudragit $RS^{\circledR}$ coated microcapsules was independent of the pH of medium, and the mechanism of drug release from non-sealed and sealed microcapsules appeared to fit Higuchi matrix model kinetics. Aspirin in the mixture of aspirin microcapsules and sodium bicarbonate was by far more stable than that in the mixture of pure aspirin and sodium bicarbonate.

Conventional intraoral radiography continues to be the most widely used image modality for the diagnosis of dental caries. But, conventional intraoral radiography has several shortcomings, including the difficulty of exposing and processing intraoral film of consistently acceptable quality. In addition, radiographic retaking that was the result of processing errors, may result in increased discomfort and radiation dose to the patient. Recently, various digital radiographies substitute for conventional intraoral radiography to overcome these disadvantages. The advantages of digital radiography are numerous. One of advantages Is the elimination of processing errors. In addition, the radiation dose for digital system is approximately 20% to 25% of that required for conventional intraoral radiography Another potential advantage of digital imaging is the ability to perform image quality enhancements such as contrast and density modulation, which may increase diagnostic accuracy. The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic ability of artificial proximal defects to conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital image(Digora$^{\circledR}$). Artificial defects were made in proximal surfaces of 60 extracted human molars using #1/2, #1, #2 round bur. Five dentists assessed proximal defects on conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital image(Digora$^{\circledR}$). ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) analysis and Two-way ANOVA test were used for the evaluation of detectability, and following results were acquired. 1. The mean ROC area of conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital Image(Digora$^{\circledR}$) were 0.6766, 0.7538, 0.6791(Grade I), 0.7176, 0.7594, 0.7361(Grade II), and 0.7449, 0.7608, 0.7414(Grade III), respectively. 2. Diagnostic ability of direct digital image was higher than other image modalities. But, there was no statistically significant difference among other imaging modalities for Grade I, II, III lesion(p>0.05). In conclusion, when direct and indirect digital system are comparable with conventional intraoral radiography. these systems may be considered an alternative of conventional intraoral radiography for the diagnosis of proximal surface caries.

The captopril microcapsules were prepared and were investigated by measuring their size distribution using Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and dissolution of captopril. Cetyl alcohol microcapsules prepared by emulsion melted-cooled method with various ratios of drug to cetyl alcohol were spherical and uniform. The release rate of cetyl alcohol microcapsules was decreased proportionally as the content of cetyl alcohol increased but, the particle size of microcapsules was increased. The surface of cetyl alcohol microcapsules was comparatively rough as drug content increased. Pellet type microcapsules were prepared using fluidized-bed coating system by spraying captopril solution on nonpareil-seeds followed by applying $Eudragit^{\circledR}$ RS solution containing propylene glycol as a plasticizer. The release rate of drug from pellet type microcapsules decreased as the content of $Eudragit^{\circledR}$ RS increased.
