The need of reusing sewage sludge is highly increasing as the amount of domestic sewage sludge is growing and sewage management strategies were reinforced. Accordingly, in this research, we studied the composting possibility of sludge in sewage treatment plant J, using dryer facility with indirect system by conducting component analysis of dried sludge and experiment on cultivating crops. It was observed from the component analysis, that the dried sludge is appropriate for both decomposed manure standard of Ministry of Environment and fertilizer standard of Rural Development Administration. Besides, in the experiment on cultivating lettuce, the experimental group(soil + dried sludge) was superior to the control group(soil + bed soil) in apparent condition of leaves tensity and damage by disease and pest. In case of cultivating tomato, the experimental group showed stronger durability of fruits dangling on stems compared to the control group after 9 weeks. Consequently, the excess sludge dried by indirect heating system in the sewage treatment plant J is appropriate for the standard of both Ministry of Environment and Rural Development Administration and show good result in experiment on cultivating crops therefore it can be reused for composting.

Objectives: This study evaluated the microtensile bond strength (${\mu}TBS$) of polymer-ceramic and indirect composite resin with 3 classes of resin cements. Materials and Methods: Two computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM)-fabricated polymer-ceramics (Enamic [ENA; Vita] and Lava Ultimate [LAV; 3M ESPE]) and a laboratory indirect composite resin (Gradia [GRA; GC Corp.]) were equally divided into 6 groups (n = 18) with 3 classes of resin cements: Variolink N (VAR; Vivadent), RelyX U200 (RXU; 3M ESPE), and Panavia F2 (PAN; Kuraray). The ${\mu}TBS$ values were compared between groups by 2-way analysis of variance and the post hoc Tamhane test (${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: Restorative materials and resin cements significantly influenced ${\mu}TBS$ (p < 0.05). In the GRA group, the highest ${\mu}TBS$ was found with RXU ($27.40{\pm}5.39N$) and the lowest with VAR ($13.54{\pm}6.04N$) (p < 0.05). Similar trends were observed in the ENA group. In the LAV group, the highest ${\mu}TBS$ was observed with VAR ($27.45{\pm}5.84N$) and the lowest with PAN ($10.67{\pm}4.37N$) (p < 0.05). PAN had comparable results to those of ENA and GRA, whereas the ${\mu}TBS$ values were significantly lower with LAV (p = 0.001). The highest bond strength of RXU was found with GRA ($27.40{\pm}5.39N$, p = 0.001). PAN showed the lowest ${\mu}TBS$ with LAV ($10.67{\pm}4.37N$; p < 0.001). Conclusions: When applied according to the manufacturers' recommendations, the ${\mu}TBS$ of polymer-ceramic CAD/CAM materials and indirect composites is influenced by the luting cements.

This study was performed to compare the shear strength of the bondings between stainless steel crown/direct type composite resin and stainless steel crown/indirect type composite resin. Four groups of bonding conditions were prepared. Two groups of bonding conditions were made by the indirect type composite resin system and the other two groups were made by the direct type composite resin system. The shear strength tests were carried out using universal testing machine, Model 4465 of Instron Co.. It was indicated that the bond strength values of the indirect type composite resins were higher than those of the direct type composite resins. TE-SE group was superior to the TE-ONE in indirect type resin system. These results were thought to be the high degree of the polymerization accompanied with temperature and pressure of the resin of indirect type resin. It was also found that indirect composite resin contains less amount of porosity in resin.

The purpose of this study was to compare the bracket placement and the shear bond strength of indirect-bonded brackets with those of direct-bonded ones. Forty eight extracted human teeth were collected and attached with brackets and tested on shear bond strength, using Instron. Fourteen patients from Wonkwang University Dental Hospital were selected for direct bonding of brackets and their teeth were measured on bracket angulation and bracket height. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The shear bond strengths of incisors were higher in direct-bonding,group, rather than in-direct-bonding group. But, the shear bond strength of premolars showed no significant differences between groups. 2. The bracket angulations of indirect-bonding group were preciser than those of direct-bonding group, especially in upper first premolars, lower lateral incisors, canines, premolars. 3. In bracket height, there were no significant differences between groups.

PURPOSE. To compare the shear bond strength of various veneering materials to grade II commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti). MATERIALS AND METHODS. Thirty specimens of CP-Ti disc with 9 mm diameter and 10 mm height were divided into three experimental groups. Each group was bonded to heat-polymerized acrylic resin (Lucitone 199), porcelain (Triceram), and indirect composite (Sinfony) with 7 mm diameter and 2 mm height. For the control group (n=10), Lucitone 199 were applied on type IV gold alloy castings. All samples were thermocycled for 5000 cycles in $5-55^{\circ}C$ water. The maximum shear bond strength (MPa) was measured with a Universal Testing Machine. After the shear bond strength test, the failure mode was assessed with an optic microscope and a scanning electron microscope. Statistical analysis was carried out with a Kruskal-Wallis Test and Mann-Whitney Test. RESULTS. The mean shear bond strength and standard deviations for experimental groups were as follows: Ti-Lucitone 199 ($12.11{\pm}4.44$ MPa); Ti-Triceram ($11.09{\pm}1.66$ MPa); Ti-Sinfony ($4.32{\pm}0.64$ MPa). All of these experimental groups showed lower shear bond strength than the control group ($16.14{\pm}1.89$ MPa). However, there was no statistically significant difference between the Ti-Lucitone 199 group and the control group, and the Ti-Lucitone 199 group and the Ti-Triceram group. Most of the failure patterns in all experimental groups were adhesive failures. CONCLUSION. The shear bond strength of veneering materials such as heat-polymerized acrylic resin, porcelain, and indirect composite to CP-Ti was compatible to that of heatpolymerized acrylic resin to cast gold alloy.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate flexural strength, composite surface and fractured surface of three different indirect composite resins. Methods: Fifteen bar-shaped specimens ($25mm{\times}2mm{\times}2mm$) were fabricated for each FL group (Flow type and Light curing) and PLP group (Putty type and Light, Pressure curing) and PL group (Putty type and Light curing) according to manufacturer's instructions and ISO 10477. Fabricated specimens were stored in the distilled water for 24 hours at the temperature of $37^{\circ}C$. Three-point bending strength test was performed to measure flexural strength using universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1mm/min (ISO 10477). Surface and fractured surface of specimens were observed by digital microscope. Results were analyzed with Kruskal-wallis tests (${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: Mean (SD) of three different indirect composite resins were 83.38 (6.67) MPa for FL group, 139.90(16.53) MPa for PLP group and 171.72(16.74) MPa for PL group. Flexural strength were statistically significant (p<0.05). Differences were not observed at fractured surface among three groups. However, many pores over $100{\mu}m$ were observed at PL group in observing surface of specimen. Conclusion: Flexural strength of composite resins was affected by second polymerization method and content of inorganic filler.

We investigated the toxicity of zinc and aluminum hot-dip galvanized sheet steel to abalone Haliotis discus hannai via changes in the gill and hepatopancreas using histological and transmission electron microscopy analysis. Experimental groups were composed of one control and four exposure conditions (direct or indirect exposure to zinc and aluminum hot-dip galvanized sheet steel). In the control group, aluminum exposure groups (direct and indirect), and indirect zinc exposure group, abalone mortality was not observed until the end of the experiment, and no histopathological changes were observed in the gill and hepatopancreas. However, the direct zinc exposure group exhibited 100% mortality. Ultrastructural analysis of the cytoplasm of ciliated and microvilli-bearing epithelial cells from gill filaments revealed electron-dense vesicles near the cell membrane and disruption of the nuclear membrane. We also observed swollen mitochondria and a loss of mitochondrial cristae. The hepatopancreas showed similar changes, and we detected highly electron-dense particles within the vesicles. These results suggest that abalone exposed directly to zinc hot-dip galvanized sheet steel experience acute toxicity, causing damage to cell organelles in the gill and hepatopancreas and, finally, inducing mortality.
