The author studied the actual conditions on the production of dental prosthesis made in laboratories, and also studied interrelationships between dentists and laboratory technicians in both personal and technical aspects. Two hundred-eighty four technicians, work in dental laboratories presently, were surveyed via mail and direct contact during the period from June 1 to June 30 and August 27 to August 28 in 1994 respectively. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Among the respondents, 90.5% we re working in commercial dental laboratories and their laboratories were mainly located in the Seoul area(40.9%, P<0.05). The numbers of employees in these laboratories were less than 10 persons(70.0%, P<0.01), and 75.9% of these laboratories have been in operation less than 15 years. 2. Most laboratory procedures were accomplished according to established disciplines. However, procedures such as die trimming in fixed restorations and the qualifications of the people designing removable partial dentures were not. Other problem areas were boxing of the working cast, the person determining the posterior palatal seal area, selection and arrangement of artificial teeth, occlusion rim correction and laboratory remounting of the processed denture in complete denture restorations. 3. Only half of the requesting dentists could send work authorizations to the laboratories with their work and even so, its contents were quite lacking. Consequently, there must be some standards in writing work authorization. 4. Technicians most desired clean and accurate impressions in fixed and removable dentures, and enough tooth reduction in porcelain fused to metal restorations. 5. For the establishment of better relationships between dentist and dental technician, the respondents desired the establishment of equal footing first(33.5%), and frequent conversations and muture understanding second(25.9%).

This research was preformed for the purpose of preparing the items of standard model of the national dental technician test base on the duty analysis of the dental technician. The results of the duty analysis for the dental technician follows. 1. The dental technician is a profession to make the oral function smooth through the dental supplement and equipment in a scientific method and the skilled technique. 2. The duty of the dental technician are determined as A. preparation for manufacture B. manufacture C. management of the place of the dental technology D. self-development. A. The field of "the preparation for manufacture" are determined as 1. to confirm work authorization 2. To confirm the working model, B. The field of "In manufacture" are determined as 1. to manufacture the temporary crown 2. to manufacture the inlay and crown & bridge prosthesis 3. to manufacture the porcelain fused metal crown prosthesis 4. to manufacture the all ceramic crown prosthesis 5. to manufacture the temporary denture prosthesis 6. to manufacture the partial denture prosthesis 7. to manufacture the complete denture prosthesis 8. to manufacture the attachment prosthesis 9. to manufacture implant prosthesis 10. to manufacture the removable orthodontic device, 11. to manufacture the fixed orthodontic device, 12. to manufacture the orthodontic study cast C. The field of "in management of the dental lab." are determined as 1. management 2. to control the dental lab. D. The field of "In the self-development" are determined as 1. to improve the professionalism 2. self-control. 3. The developing items selected under the duty evaluation of the dental technician are l7s in the manufacture preparation, 1,011s in the manufacture, 7s in the management for the dental technology, 5s in self-development, and in all together 1,040s

With an objective of evolving quantitatively and qualitatively superior bivoltine breeds/hybrids of silkworm Bombyx mori L. for tropical conditions, breeding work was initiated in Central Sericultural Research and Training Institute, Mysore during 1992 by utilizing two Japanese hybrids namely BNl8$\times$BCS25 and Shunrei$\times$Shogetsu along with Indian evolved breed, KA. The breed CSR12 which is characterized with sex-limited larval marking and white oval cocoons was evolved from the Japanese hybrid BNl8 ${\times}$ BCS25 by crossing with KA, while the breed CSR6 which is characterized with normal marking (marked larvae) and white dumbbell cocoons was extracted from the Japanese commercial hybrid Shunrei${\times}$Shogetsu through continuous inbreeding coupled with selection. After fixation, these breeds along with other newly evolved breeds were subjected to hybrid study under optimum environmental conditions in the laboratory for expression of full potential of the genotypes. These hybrids were evaluated by Multiple Trait Evaluation Index (Mano et al., 1993). The hybrid CSR12${\times}$CSR6 was selected based multiple trait evaluation index value. The hybrid CSR12$\times$CSR6 recorded survival of 96.0%, shell weight of 50.0 cg, shell ratio of 24.3%, raw silk percentage of 19.6, filament length of 1,216 m, boil off loss of 22.4% and renditta of 5.1. On the other hand, the control hybrid (KA ${\times}$ NB4D2) has recorded survival of 90.6%, shell weight of 42.1 cg, shell ratio of 20.4%, raw silk percentage of 15.9, filament length of 999 m, boil off loss of 24.8% and renditta of 6.3. The hybrid CSR12$\times$CSR6 was authorized during 1997 by Central Silk Board, Government of India for commercial exploitation during favourable months based on national level race authorization test.
