Monodispersed microparticles with a poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) core and a poly(ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate) (PE2CA) shell were prepared by Shirasu porous glass (SPG) membrane emulsification to reduce the initial burst release of doxorubicin (DOX). Solution mixtures with different weight ratios of PLGA polymer and E2CA monomer were permeated under pressure through an SPG membrane with $1.9\;{\mu}m$ pore size into a continuous water phase with sodium lauryl sulfate as a surfactant. Core-shell structured microparticles were formed by the mechanism of anionic interfacial polymerization of E2CA and precipitation of both polymers. The average diameter of the resulting microparticles with various PLGA:E2CA ratios ranged from 1.42 to $2.73\;{\mu}m$. The morphology and core-shell structure of the microparticles were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The DOX release profiles revealed that the microparticles with an equivalent PLGA:E2CA weight ratio of 1:1 exhibited the optimal condition to reduce the initial burst of DOX. The initial release rate of DOX was dependent on the PLGA:E2CA ratio, and was minimized at a 1:1 ratio.

The authors aimed to analyze the quality improvement efficiency of wound dressing with 2-octyl cyanoacrylate(2-OCA) in stereotactic image guided linear or sigmoid incisions in a cohort of consecutive craniotomy patients, and to compare clinical results with those of iodine-dressing and silk sutured patients underwent conventional craniotomy surgery with large pedicle flap incisions without stereotactic guidance. In methods, 26 patients were involved as the study group at one hospital. We retrospectively compared their results with those of 38 consecutive control patients at the same unit. The suggested new medical material, 2-octyl cyanoacrylate(2-OCA), resultantly decreased or prevented the contaminated fluid influx from scalp outside. The mean infection rate for the control group (7.89%) was relatively higher than that of the study group (3.85%). In addition, the use of stereotactic image guided craniotomy was significant to reduce operation time, to simplify operative procedures and to decrease potential risk factors.

VMD 금/아연 기법은 금의 탁월한 전·연성을 이용함으로써 비다공성 표면에서 잠재지문을 현출할 수 있는 매우 민감한 기법으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 이 기법은 empty print 현상으로 인해 지문을 관찰할 수 없는 경우가 발생하며, 그 발생 원인에 대해서는 추측만 있을 뿐 명확하게 알려진 바 없다. 본 연구에서는 empty print의 발생 요인으로 추측되는 지문의 신선도와 기법의 민감도에 대해 실험하고, 이를 바탕으로 empty print에서 지문을 재현출하기 위해 CA 훈증법 후처리를 제안한다.

잠재지문이 유류된 배경과 지문과의 대조비를 높이기 위한 증강작업 시에 잠재지문의 훼손을 최소화하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 실험은 반다공성 표면에 유류된 잠재지문을 시아노아크릴레이트 훈증 처리 후 p-dimethylaminobenzealdehyde (DMAB) 증강시약을 사용하여 그 효과를 확인하고, 증강효과에 미치는 환경적 요인을 분석한 것이다. 실험에 사용된 모든 지문은 시아노아크릴레이트 진공 훈증 후 실온에서 24 시간 건조해 사용하였다. 시아노아크릴레이트 훈증물의 DMAB 형광염색을 위해 표면적, 온도, 기압을 달리한 조건에서 12 시간 단위로 48 시간 동안 승화시켰다. 표면적 영향에 대한 실험에서 물질의 입자크기와 용기의 크기는 DMAB의 승화속도와 형광세기에 영향을 주었다. 또한 무용매접촉법을 적용한 DMAB 형광염색은 36 시간 승화 후 최대 형광세기를 보였고, 일정 표면적 이상에서는 형광세기에 미치는 영향이 저조하였다. 온도에 관한 실험에서 DMAB는 $20^{\circ}C$의 실온에서 가장 잘 승화하였고, 최대형광 세기를 얻을 수 있는 승화시간이 48 시간에서 36 시간으로 단축되었다. 또한 $30^{\circ}C$이상의 상온에서는 오히려 적정 형광세기를 나타내는 승화시간이 길어지고, 형광세기에 미치는 영향도 미약했다. 또한 압력에 관한 실험에서는 압력의 변화가 매우 크지 않는 이상 형광세기가 비진공상태에서의 형광세기보다 약했다.

Gloves are very important evidence at a crime scene; specifically, rubber gloves can be found easily at homes. Therefore, crime scene investigators attempt to develop fingerprints inside the rubber gloves that are discovered, for identifying unknown suspects. This study compared the effectiveness of three different methods that are used for developing latent prints on gloves with aging time. These were the powder, cyanoacrylate fuming, and multi-metal deposition I methods. The powder method achieved good results for 1-3 days of aged prints, and the cyanoacrylate fuming method worked well on 2-week-old prints. In comparison, multi-metal deposition I method developed good quality fingerprints for 6 weeks of aging time.

This study suggests a new one-step fluorescent cyanoacylate-fuming method for developing fingerprints by using a CAB mixed with dimethylaminobenzalde (DMAB) and cyanoacylate (CA) in a specific ratio. CAB is prepared by mixing 2.5 % (w/w) DMAB with CA and fumigated at 180 ℃. Under these conditions, developing fingerprints showed the best results. The fuming method using CAB develops latent fingerprints into fluorescence and has a higher sensitivity than CA, and it showed comparable or better contrast to existing fluorescence enhancement methods. It was also applicable on a variety of non-porous surfaces that can be encountered at ordinary times. This method is more useful than conventional fluorescent dyeing methods in that it minimizes damage to fingerprints or samples, makes it easy to manufacture, saves time, and can use existing current equipment as it is.

Background: N-Butyl Cyanoacrylate (NBCA) is a liquid embolic material that can be useful for transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) of acute bleeding especially in patients with coagulopathy, because it does not depend on coagulation for its therapeutic effect. The aims of this study were to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of TAE with NBCA in acute bleeding patients. Methods: Between August 2003 and September 2004, TAE using NBCA for acute bleeding was performed in 23 patients (16 men, 7 women; mean age, 56.5years). The causes of bleeding were gastric ulcer (n=5), postoperative bleeding (n=4), post-biopsy bleeding (n=3), postpartum bleeding (n=3), duodenal ulcer (n=2), angiodysplasia (n=2), gastric lymphoma (n=1), iatrogenic injury (n=1), CMV gastritis (n=1), stab injury of the liver (n=1). TAE was performed using 1:3 mixtures of NBCA and iodized oil. The angiographic and clinical success rate, recurrent bleeding rate, procedure-related complication and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Results: The angiographic and clinical success rate was 100% and 91.3% (21/23), respectively. There was no serious ischemic complication. Recurrent bleeding occurred in 2 patients (8.7%) and they were managed with successful second TAE (n=1) and endoscopic treatment (n=1). Nine patients (39.1%) had coagulopathy at the time of TAE and clinical success rate in this group of patients was 88.9% (8/9). Conclusions: TAE with NBCA is highly effective and safe treatment modality for acute bleeding patients, especially when the patient has a coagulopathy.

This study experimentally investigated dicyclohexylammonium 2-cyanoacrylate (CA) as a potential comonomer for polyacrylonitrile (PAN) based carbon fiber precursors. The P(AN-CA) copolymers with different CA contents (0.19-0.78 mol% in the feed) were polymerized using solution polymerization with 2,2-azobis(isobutyronitrile) as an initiator. The chemical structure and composition of P(AN-CA) copolymers were determined by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and elemental analysis, and the copolymer composition was similar to the feeding ratio of the monomers. The effects of CA comonomer on the thermal properties of its copolymers were characterized differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in nitrogen and air atmospheres. The DSC curves of P(AN-CA) under nitrogen atmosphere indicated that the initiation temperature for cyclization of nitrile groups was reduced to around $235^{\circ}C$. The heat release and the activation energy for cyclization reactions were decreased in comparison with those of PAN homopolymers. On the other hand, under air atmosphere, the P(AN-CA) with 0.78 mol% CA content showed that the initiation temperature of cyclization was significantly lowered to $160.1^{\circ}C$. The activation energy value showed 116 kJ/mol, that was smaller than that of the copolymers with 0.82 mol% of itaconic acids. The thermal stability of P(AN-CA), evidenced by thermogravimetric analyses in air atmosphere, was found higher than PAN homopolymer and similar to P(AN-IA) copolymers. Therefore, this study successfully demonstrated the great potential of P(AN-CA) copolymers as carbon fiber precursors, taking advantages of the temperature-lowering effects of CA comonomers and higher thermal stability of the CA copolymers for the stabilizing processes.

Purpose: The standard treatments of hand fractures today are fixations by K -wires, metal plates, wires and lag screws. But it is very difficult to reconstruct fractures by placing implants into small bony fragments especially in the comminuted fractures and intra-articular fractures. This paper describes a simple method of reconstruction with Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ for comminuted and intra-articular fractures in hands. Methods: 2 cases with comminuted and intra-articular fractures by crushing injury were reconstructed with Histoacryl$^{(R)}$. We performed applying Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ with swab on the bone cortex carefully to avoid Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ infiltrating into the medulla. We could rearrange and fixate bony fragments using only Histoacryl$^{(R)}$, in addition, metal plates, K-wires, wires, and lag screws could be used for secondary fixation if needed. Results: Post-operative X-ray finding of 2 patients assured that the bony fragments of the hand fractures maintained their original positions. Significant displacement and deviation, infection, nonunion, and malunion during the follow-up period were not observed. Conclusion: This study showed the possibility of using Histoacryl$^{(R)}$ in addition as a simple method of fixation in the comminuted and intra-articular hand fractures.
