  • 방사선치료용 고 에너지 전자선의 조직내 선량분포는 매우 다양하게 나타나고 있으며 조직내에서 일정 깊이까지만 선량이 집중적으로 부여되고 그 이후에는 선량이 급감하는 특징으로 인하여 피부 및 피부에서 깊지않은 종양과 구강, 질강 등 강내조사에 존재하는 종양치료에 널리 이용되고 있다. 하지만 의료용 선형가속기에는 강내조사용 조사통(cone)이 제공되지 않고 있다. 본 실험은 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 cm ø 크기의 강내조사용 소조사면 조사통을 수직형과 30$^{\circ}$ 경사형으로 6가지를 직접 제작하여 에너지별, 조사통 크기별로 조직내 선량분포 특성을 실험하여 임상적 선량계획에 필요한 자료를 제공하는데 목적을 두고 실험하였다. 심부선량은 조사통 크기, 에너지 크기, 조사통 각도에 따라 다르게 나타나고 있으며 유효선량 깊이는 전자선 에너지 및 조사통이 커질수록 약간 증가하였고, X선 오염정도는 1.2% 이하로 나타났으며, 출력흡수선량율은 약 15-86 %로 나타났다. 고 에너지 전자선은 강내치료에 매우 유용하게 이용될 수 있으며, 조직내 선량분포 특성이 매우 다양한 양상을 나타내고 있음을 확인하였고 이러한 결과를 자료화하여 임상적 치료와 새로운 선량분포 모형 연구에 필요한 자료를 제공할 수 있으리라 생각한다.

  • 근관형성을 위해 표준화된 근관형성기구에 비해 taper가 큰 기구들이 사용되고 있으며 이를 이용하여 형성된 근관은 taper가 큰 근관의 모양을 갖는다. 근관충전방법에 있어 근관의 크기에 적합한 1차적 gutta-percha cone을 선택할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 .04 및 .06 taper의 전동화일로 형성된 근관에 열연화충전법을 위해 가장 적합한 1차 cone을 선택하기 위한 지침 마련의 목적으로, 근단공의 크기와 근관의 taper에 따른 gutta-percha cone의 근단부 근관 내 적 합도를 평가하였다. ProFile$^{(R)}$ .04 taper와 .06 taper를 이용하여 Crown down 방법으로 60개의 모형근관을 형성하였다. 표준화 gutta-percha cone, Dia-Pro ISO-.04$^{TM}$ 및 .06 gutta-percha cone, MF, F, FM 및 M 크기의 비표준화 gutta-percha cone의 근관 내 적합도는 치근단 5mm의 근관면적에 대한 gutta-percha cone의 점유 면적비(%)로 하였다. .04 taper, 25번 크기의 근관에서는 F, MF 크기의 비표준화 cone이 표준화 cone과 Dia-Pro 180-.04$^{TM}$ 보다 우수한 근관적합도를 나타내었고(p<0.05), 30번 크기의 근관에서는 F, Dia-Pro ISO-.04$^{TM}$, FM 크기의 gutta-percha cone 모두 표준화 cone보다 우수한 근관적합도를 나타내었으나(p<0.05), 35번 크기의 근관에서는 모든 gutta-percha cone 사이에 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다(p>0.05) .06 taper, 25번 크기의 근관에서는 사용된 비표준화 cone 모두가 표준화 cone, Dia-Pro ISO-.06$^{TM}$ 보다 나은 근관적합도를 나타내었고(P<0.05), 30번 크기의 근관에서는 표준화 cone을 제외한 나머지 gutta-percha cone에서 유의한 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. 35번 크기의 근관에는 M 크기의 비표준화 cone이 가장 우수한 근관적합도를 보이고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, FM과 Dia-Pro ISO-.06$^{TM}$ 사이에서는 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다(p>0.05).

  • The essential oil from the cones of Pinus koraiensis was prepared after removing the seeds, and its chemical composition analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Hydrodistillation of the P. koraiensis cones yielded 1.07% (v/w) of essential oil, which was almost three times the amount of essential oil extracted from the needles of the same plant. Moreover, the antimicrobial activities of the oil against the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi were evaluated using the agar disc diffusion method and broth microdilution method. Eighty-seven components, comprising about 96.8% of the total oil, were identified. The most abundant oil components were limonene (27.90%), ${\alpha}$-pinene (23.89%), ${\beta}$-pinene (12.02%), 3-carene(4.95%), ${\beta}$-myrcene (4.53%), isolongifolene (3.35%), (-)-bornyl acetate (2.02%), caryophyllene (1.71%), and camphene (1.54%). The essential oil was confirmed to have significant antimicrobial activities, especially against pathogenic fungal strains such as Candida glabrata YFCC 062 and Cryptococcus neoformans B 42419. Therefore, the present results indicate that the essential oil from the cones of Pinus koraiensis can be used in various ways as a nontoxic and environmentally friendly disinfectant.

  • In this paper, a numerical analysis is carried out to study the drag of conical cavitators, supercavity generation devices for the high-speed underwater vehicle. The realizable k-∊ turbulence model and the Schnerr-Sauer cavitation model are applied to calculate steady-state supercavitating flows around cones of various cone angles. The calculated drags of the cones are decomposed of the pressure and the friction parts and their dependency on the geometry and the flow conditions have been analyzed. It is confirmed that the pressure drag coefficients of the cones can be estimated by a simple function of both the cone angle and the cavitation number while the friction drag coefficients approximately by well-known empirical formulas, e.g., Schults-Grunow's for the drag of the flat plate. Finally a practical method for estimating the total drags of supercavitating cones is suggested, which can be useful consequently for the design of conical cavitaors.

  • Objectives: Literature has shown that micro-organisms contaminate gutta percha (GP) during storage and manipulation. Till date herbal extracts are not explored as an alternative medicament for pre-operative chairside disinfection of GP cones. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and efficacy of lemon grass oil (LG), basil oil (BO), and obicure tea extract (OT) in disinfecting GP cones before obturation. Materials and Methods: Agar diffusion method was used to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of LG, BO, OT, and sodium hypochlorite (control) against common contaminants, namely, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. One hundred and twenty GP cones were contaminated and cut into 2. First half was placed in the broth and incubated; whereas the second was treated with herbal extracts for 1 minute and then incubated for 24 hours in the broth. Any inhibition in bacterial growth was noted with presence/absence of turbidity. Two-way analysis of variance and ${\chi}^2$ test were used to assess the effectiveness of herbal extracts to decontaminate GP. Results: LG showed the highest inhibition zones ($29.9{\pm}6.9mm$) for all tested organisms, followed by OT extract ($16.3{\pm}1.8mm$), sodium hypochlorite ($16.0{\pm}1.6mm$), and BO ($14.5{\pm}5.3mm$). Statistically significant difference was observed between LG and other herbal extracts (p < 0.05). Conclusions: All extracts proved to be potential rapid chairside disinfectants of GP cones with LG showing the highest antimicrobial activity.

  • Current data on reproductive characters of endemic and native species are essential to provide a strategy for the conservation of these species. Red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. & Zucc.) is one of the dominant, native tree species in Korea, but its reproductive ecology is not well-known. In 1997, the pattern of variation in cone and seed yields contributing to the conservation of declining populations of red pines was examined. Plant height and dbh were measured, and several new cones were collected from each tagged tree after counting the number of cones on each tree. For a subset of cones sampled, the number of fertile scales, the number of seeds at three development stages (early/late aborted, and filled seed), seed wing size, wing color, and individual filled seed mass were measured. The three sites which differed significantly in mean plant size also differed in mean cone and seed production per plant. However further analyses showed that most variation in characters examined occurred among plants within sites, but not among sites. An average of 90% of the potential seeds on the cones aborted at an early developmental stage, demonstrating that early abortion is a major factor affecting the number of filled seeds per cone. Individual seed mass was the only character which exhibited significant variations among sites as well as among trees within sites. Individual seed mass was overall negatively correlated with both the percentage of late abortion and the number of old cones per plant, suggesting that both the past and current years' reproductive activities have caused variations in seed mass. The potential dispersal distance of red pine seeds is quite large. However, wing loading was correlated with seed mass and number in a complex pattern across the sites. Distribution of seeds with varied colored wings differed among sites and among trees within sites. These results suggest that red pines at different sites might possess different strategies to cope with selection pressures acting during the final phase of reproduction, from seed dispersal to establishment. Then the ‘fitted’ red pine trees at each site should be identified and managed to conserve or restore populations.

  • Surface modification like cone formation on Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) occurs in YBCO target surface irradiated by laser beam. Cone formation results in a reduction of deposition rate, so that it is significant obstacles to an efficient deposition process. With the change of various conditions such as the number of laser shot, target density, direction of incoming laser beam, we have systematically analyzed the modification of target surface. Because cones formed by beam-target interactions grow in direction of incoming laser beam, we have used the method of rotating the target position by 180$^{\circ}$ with the same number and position of laser shot. Experimental results of losing the directionality and changing the shape of cones formed on laser irradiated YBCO target surface is obtained by the SEM image. Also, we have observed that the size of cones formed on target by pulsed laser became larger with increasing the number of laser shots.

  • Hop cones (Humuli Strobili) are the female inflorescences of hop plants (Humulus lupulus L.) belonging to the family Cannabaceae. They have been used as herbal remedies to treat mood and sleep disturbances, and mainly to add as a bittering ingredient in brewing process. Considerable interests on pharmacological and biological activities of hop cones have been focused on their major constituents, namely, phloroglucinols (humulone, lupulone), terpenes (myrcene, humulene), and prenylated flavonoids (xanthohumol, isoxanthohumol, 6-prenylnaringenin, and 8-prenylnaringenin). The present review describes and discusses biological activity profiles of these major compounds in the hop cones.
