Objectives: Calcium hydroxide, a root canal temporary sealer, has long been used and it has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory activity. To investigate the properties of a newly developed calcium hydroxide paste comprising silicon-substituted hydroxyapatite (Si-HA), we examined the anti-inflammatory activity of the new calcium hydroxide paste in RAW 264.7 macrophages stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which causes infection of the root canal. Methods: The test materials, including Calcipex II as control group and the newly developed TRC paste, were extracted from cell culture media and then diluted for experiment. In LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells, the cytotoxicity and nitric oxide (NO) production of test materials were measured by MTT assay and Griess reagents, respectively. Also, the expression of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was assessed by western blotting. Results: The IC50 values of Calcipex II and TRC paste were $17.6mg/m{\ell}$ and $13.5mg/m{\ell}$, respectively. The level of NO, increased by LPS, was dose-dependently inhibited more by TRC paste than Calcipex II treatment. In addition, iNOS expression was decreased by 71% and 92% at concentrations of $2mg/m{\ell}$ and $20mg/m{\ell}$ of TRC paste, respectively. Conclusions: We demonstrated that the Si-HA calcium hydroxide paste has a slightly improved anti-inflammatory property and further studies are needed before clinical recommendations are proposed.

This experiment was conducted to examine the effects on the composition and rumen degradation in sacco of rice straw treated with animal urine (1 l of 2.9 g N/kg DM straw) and urea plus calcium hydroxide (2% urea plus 0.5% $Ca(OH)_2$/kg DM straw) as a cheap and relatively safe alternative for ammonia (3% ammonia solution/kg DM straw). Mold occurred in urine treated straw, but other treatments were apparently mold-free. All treatments significantly (p<0.05) increased CP content in the straw compared with untreated one. Ammonia-treated straw contained CP at about twice that in urine or urea-calcium hydroxide treated straw. NDF and hemicellulose contents decreased significantly (p<0.05) in all treatments, while ADF and cellulose showed no differences compared with untreated straw. The degradable fraction of DM, CP, NDF, hemicellulose and cellulose was significantly (p<0.05) increased for ammonia and urea-calcium hydroxide treatments than for urine treated or untreated straw except for CP of urine treated straw. Chemical treatment of rice straw increased the readily degradable fraction of CP, while it decreased the slowly degradable fraction for urine or urea-calcium hydroxide treated rice straw. The degradation rate of hemicellulose was significantly (p<0.05) increased for ammonia and urea-calcium hydroxide treatments compared to urine treated or untreated straw. However, no effect on cellulose degradation rate was found by any of the treatments. There was no improvement in the degradation kinetics caused by the urine treatment despite the improvement of the chemical composition. Although the improvement in rumen degradability was less in the urea-calcium hydroxide treatment than in the ammonia treatment, its use may be more desirable because it is less expensive to obtain, less hazardous nature, and readily available. For further improvement it is necessary to investigate the supplementation of slowly degradable nitrogen to ureacalcium hydroxide treated rice straw diet.

In this work, CR (Chloroprene Rubber) was emulsified by phase-inversion emulsification with nonionic surfactants (NP-1025, LE-1017, and OP-1019) and an anionic surfactant (SDBS; sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate), and its stabilization was investigated through a study of its adsorption characteristics, zeta potential, and flow behavior. As the amount of the mixed surfactant increased, the droplet size decreased, resulting in the increase of viscosity. In particular, a CR emulsion with a lower absorbance in the UV spectrum exhibited the highest zeta potential. The results of this experiment showed that the CR emulsion prepared using (LE-1017) and SDBS was the most stable. In this study, calcium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide were added to enhance the mechanical properties of the CR emulsion, and the relationship between tensile strength, tear strength and surface free energy were investigated. The tensile and tear strengths of the CR emulsion incresed as the amount of calcium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide increased. The highest tensile and tear strengths and surface free energy were observed for additions of 1.0% calcium hydroxide and 0.80% aluminum hydroxide, respectively. It was concluded that the interfacial bonding strength was improved by the even dispersion of calcium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide in the CR emulsion.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the apical leakage in extracted teeth filled with gutta-percha subsequent to dressing with one of three different calcium hydroxide preparations. Thirty six extracted teeth with single canal were used in this study. After working length determination, canals were prepared with K flexo files to a #40 at the working length. Step-back flaring was produced by using #45, #50 K flexo files and #2, #3, #4 Gates Glidden burs. The teeth were randomly divided into 3 groups of 10 each : the remaining six teeth were used for negative and positive leakage control: Group 1, dressed with pure calcium hydroxide powder (Sigma, USA) mixed with distilled water; Group 2, dressed with Metapaste (Metadent, Korea) ; Group 3, dressed with Vitapex (Neo Dental, Japan). Teeth were sealed with Caviton (GC, Japan) and incubated in 100% humidity, at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 1 wk. All kinds of calcium hydroxide were removed from the canal with a MAF and 5% NaOCl. The canals were filled with AH-26$^{\circledR}$ sealer and gutta-percha using lateral condensation technique, incubated in 100% humidity, at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 2 days for the sealer to be set. The teeth were coated twice with nail varnish except for an area of approximately 2mm surrounding the apical foramen. All specimens were placed in 2% methylene blue solution for 2 days. The root were sectioned longitudinally, the amount of apical leakage was measured to the most coronal part of the root canal to which the dye had penetrated. The independent measurements were made for each root using a stereomicroscope ($\times$40 magnification) and the average was recorded for statistical analysis. The results were as follows ; 1. The mean of apical leakage in group of pure calcium hydroxide ranged 0.102$\pm$0.156mm, in Metapaste$^{\circledR}$ ranged 0.062$\pm$0.069mm, and in Vitapex$^{\circledR}$ ranged 0.067$\pm$0.072mm. 2. Group of pure calcium hydroxide exhibited more leakage than those of 2 manufactured calcium hydroxide preparations, but it was not statistically significant. 3. Group of water-based Metapaste$^{\circledR}$ showed lesser leakage than that of oil-based Vitapex$^{\circledR}$, but it was not statistically significant.

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was developed in early 1990s and has been successfully used for root perforation repair, root end filling, and one-visit apexification. MTA is composed mainly of tricalcium silicate and dicalcium silicate. When MTA is hydrated, calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) and calcium hydroxide is formed. Formed calcium hydroxide interacts with the phosphate ion in body fluid and form amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) which finally transforms into calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA). These mineral precipitate were reported to form the MTA-dentin interfacial layer which enhances the sealing ability of MTA. Clinically, the use of zinc oxide euginol (ZOE) based materials may retard the setting of MTA. Also, the use of acids or contact with excessive blood should be avoided before complete set of MTA, because these conditions could adversely affect the hydration reaction of MTA. Further studies on the chemical nature of MTA hydration reaction are needed.

The present study examines the distribution of calcium hydroxide, unhydrated cement grain and porosity at the steel-concrete interface. The formation of calcium hydroxide has been confirmed by microscopic analysis using BSE images containing the ITZ between the steel and concrete. It was found that calcium hydroxide does not form a layer on the steel surface, different from the hypothesis that has been available in investigating the corrosion of steel in concrete, ranging from 5 to $10\%$ within the steel surface. Moreover, the high level of porosity at the ITZ was observed, accounting for $30\%$, which may reduce the buffering capacity of cement hydration products against a local fall in the pH. These findings may imply that the mole of ($Cl^-$) :($OH^-$) in pore solution as chloride threshold level lead to wrong judgement or to a wide range of values.
