A systematic study was conducted to identify and isolate a serologically pertinent antigen with high specific activity and low cross reactivity from Cysticercus parenchymal antigen. Differential centrifugation of the homogenate yield three particulate and one soluble fractions ; the $480{\times}G$ pellets($CyL_2$), the $7650{\times}G$ pellet($CyL_3$), the $100000{\times}G$ pellet($CyL_4$), and $100000{\times}G$ supernatant($CyL_6$). We compared antigenicity of these antigens to that or cystic fluid antigens($CyF_1$), saline extract of cystic wall($CyL_1$), and n-butanol treated $GyL_4$ antigen ($CyL_6$) based on SDS-PAGE and immunoblot techniques. The data obtained were as follows : 1) The ratio of O.D. value of ELISA against cysticercosis positive pool sera to that of negative pool sera was highest when using $CyF_1$ as antigen. However the ratio was relatively low in case of $CyL_{3.4}$ and $CyL_5$. 2) We have noted in previous paper that most strong antigenic activities are present in 63Kd band with low cross reactivities. An effective serologic reagent must contain components that are recognized by most infected sera. 63Kd band met this criteria and could be considered as a reliable band for the diagnosis of cysticercosis. As far as 63Kd band concern, $CyL_5$ showed most strong activities without disturbance of cross reaction by EITB in spite of low applicability to microplate ELISA. 3) $CyL_5$ could detect the serum antibody of cysticercosis even in very low titers, around cut-off values of microplate ELISA, by immunoblot. It also could detect the cross reactivities of Echinococcus species, which showed high absorbance value in micro plate ELISA and some sparganosis cases. Further purification of this antigen will be able to represents a antigen that can be used in the diagnosis of cysticercosis.

Thermodynamic modeling of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite system has been adopted as a rational approach to establish routes to better synthesis conditions for pure phase $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite. Quantitative analysis of the different reaction equilibria involved in the precipitation of $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ from aqueous solutions has been used to determine the optimum synthesis conditions. The spinel ferrites, such as magnetite and substitutes for magnetite, with the general formula $MFe_2O_4$, where M= $Fe^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, and $Ni^{2+}$ are prepared by coprecipitation of $Fe^{3+}$ and $M^{2+}$ ions with a stoichiometry of $M^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$= 0.5. The average particle size of the as synthesized $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$, measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), is 14.2 nm, with a standard deviation of 3.5 nm the size when calculated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) is 16 nm. When $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite is annealed at elevated temperature, larger grains are formed by the necking and mass transport between the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite nanoparticles. Thus, the grain sizes of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ gradually increase as heat treatment temperature increases. Based on the results of Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) analysis, it is found that the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the as synthesized ferrite nanoparticles finally decompose to $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ crystal with heat treatment. The results of XRD and TEM confirmed the nanoscale dimensions and spinel structure of the samples.

20 L 구형 폭발시험장치와 시차주사열량계(DSC)를 사용하여 반응성 유기물 분진의 폭발 및 열분해 특성을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 그 결과 97 % Benzoyl peroxide(BPO), Phthalic anhydride(PA), 1-Hydroxybenzotri azol(HBT)의 폭발하한은 매우 낮은 농도인 10~15 g/$m^3$의 범위로 측정되어 착화위험성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. HBT, PA 및 97 % BPO의 폭발지수는 각각 251, 146, 80 [bar m/s]로서, HBT는 폭발등급 2에 해당한다. 또한 밀폐계 분진폭발의 화염전파 특성을 추정하기 위하여 용기면에의 화염도달시간과 폭발압력을 고려하여 화염전파속도를 예측하였다. 97 % BPO 및 HBT의 열분해 개시온도와 발열량은 각각 $107^{\circ}C$(1025 J/g), $214^{\circ}C$(1666 J/g)로 나타났는데, 이와같이 낮은 열분해 온도와 큰 발열량이 폭발특성에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다.

The neuropeptide substance P(SP) has been implicated in the mediation of inflammation and immune-mediated disease such as arthritis. Recently, it was reported that SP was markedly increased around the blood vessels in inflamed gingiva as well as in close association with the inflammatory cell infiltrate. These results support that SP may contribute to the pathophysiology of neuronal inflammation in human periodontal tissues. SP may regulate inflammatory/immune responses by stimulating the proliferation of human T cells, differentiation and antibody-secreting potential of B cells, macrophage respiratory burst, connective tissue proliferation, and the secretion of cytokines from monocytes and T cells. Here, I studied potential role of SP as a costimulatory chemical signal in inflammatory/immune responses, by determining the released proinflammatory cytokines such as $MIP-1{\alpha}$, $IL-1{\beta}$, and IL-6 from culture supernatants of homogeneous immune cell lines. Serum free cell supernatants were concentrated with TCA precipitation, fractionated with SDS-PAGE, and subjected into western blot analysis. Among 15 cell lines tested, macrophage/monocyte cell line RAW264.7 and WRl9m.1 showed the highest level of induction of $MIP-1{\alpha}$ when stimulated with LPS. Discrete IL-6 bands with multiple forms of molecular mass were detected from supernatants of B cell lines A20(32kDa), Daudi(32, 35kDa), and SKW6.4(29kDa), which were expressed constitutively. $IL-1{\beta}$ could not be detected by the method of western blot analysis from supernatants of all cell lines tested except RAW264.7, WRl9m.1, and erythroid cell line K562 which showed the least amount of $IL-{\beta}$ secretion. SP $10^{-9}M$ with suboptimal dose of LPS treatment showed synergistic induction of $MIP-1{\alpha}$ release from RAW264.7 or WR19m.1, and also IL-6 release from A20, but this synergism is not the case in costimulation of RAW264.7 or WRl9m.1 with SP $10^{-9}M$ and TPA. Although treatment of T cell line CTLL-R8 with SP $10^{-7}M$ or PHA+TPA induced modest level of $MIP-1{\alpha}$ secretion, synergism was not observed when they are applied together. These findings all together suggest the possibility of a regulatory role of SP in inflammatory/immune reaction through differential modulation of bioactivities of other chemical cosignals.

본 연구에서는 생분해성 고분자인 PLA(polylactic acid)의 기계적 열적 물성 향상을 위해 목재에서 얻은 펄프분말을 블랜딩하여 펄프분말의 함량에 따른 PLA/펄프 복합필름의 기계적, 열적 물성을 확인하였으며, 또한 이 복합필름에 가교제로 TDI(toluene diisocyanate)를 첨가하여 복합필름의 물성 향상을 확인하였다. 그 결과 순수한 PLA 필름의 경우 인장강도가 $565.25kg_f/cm^2$인 것을 확인하였으며, 펄프분말의 함량이 0.25 wt% 일 때의 인장강도가 $624.20kg_f/cm^2$로 약 9.1 % 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 반면 연신율의 경우 전 복합필름이 순수 PLA 필름에 비해 약 50% 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 가교제로 TDI를 첨가한 PLA/펄프분말의 경우도 TDI의 함량에 관계없이 0.25 wt%의 펄프분말만을 첨가한 복합필름에 비해 연신율이 낮았으며, 인장강도의 경우 500% TDI를 첨가한 경우 $640.43kg_f/cm^2$로 증가하였다. 또한, PLA/펄프 복합필름에서 TDI를 가교시킨 PLA/펄프 복합필름은 가교시키지 않은 PLA/펄프 복합필름에 비해 $300^{\circ}C$ 이하에서의 열적 안정성은 우레탄기의 형성에 의해 TDI의 함량이 높은 경우 약간 증가하였다.

Gingival overgrowth can cause dental occlusion and seriously interfere with mastication, speech, and dental hygiene. It is observed in 25 to 81% of renal transplant patients treated with cyclosporine A (CsA). CsA-induced gingival overgrowth (CIGO) is caused by quantitative alteration of the extracellular matrix components, particularly collagen. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of CIGO remain poorly understood, despite intense clinical and laboratory investigations. The aim of the present work is to identify differentially expressed genes closely associated with CIGO. Human gingival fibroblasts were isolated by primary explant culture of gingival tissues from five healthy subjects (HGFs) and two patients with the CIGO (CIGO-HGFs). The proliferative activity of CsA-treated HGFs and CIGO-HGFs was examined using the MTT assay. The identification of differentially expressed genes in CsA-treated CIGO-HGF was performed by differential display reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) followed by DNA sequencing. CsA significantly increased the proliferation of two HGFs and two CIGO-HGFs, whereas three HGFs were not affected. Seven genes, including the beta subunit of prolyl 4-hydroxylase (P4HB) and testican 1, were upregulated by CsA in a highly proliferative CIGO-HGF. The increased P4HB and testican-1 mRNA levels were confirmed in CsA-treated CIGO-HGFs by semiquantitative RT-PCR. Furthermore, CsA increased type I collagen mRNA levels and suppressed MMP-2 mRNA levels, which are regulated by P4HB and testican-1, respectively. These results suggest that CsA may induce gingival overgrowth through the upregulation of P4HB and testican-1, resulting in the accumulation of extracellular matrix components.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to observe the reaction kinetics and the degree of polymerization of composite resins when cured by different light sources and to evaluate the effectiveness of the blue Light Emitting Diode Light Curing Units (LED LCUs) compared with conventional halogen LCUs. Materials and Methods: First, thermal analysis was performed by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The LED LCU (Elipar Freelight, $320{\;}mW/\textrm{cm}^2$) and the conventional halogen LCU (XL3000, $400{\;}mV/\textrm{cm}^2$) were used in this study for curing three composite resins (SureFil, Z-250 and AEliteFLO). Second. the degree of conversion was obtained in the composite resins cured according to the above curing mode with a FTIR. Third, the measurements of depth of cure were carried out in accordance with ISO 4049 standards. Statistical analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA test at 95% levels of confidence and Duncan's procedure for multiple comparisons. Results: The heat of cure was not statistically different among the LCUs (p > 0.05). The composites cured by the LED (Exp) LCUs were statistically more slowly polymerized than by the halogen LCU and the LED (Std) LCU (p < 0.05). The composite resin groups cured by the LED (Exp) LCUs had significantly greater degree of conversion value than by the halogen LCU and the LED (Std) LCU (p =0.0002). The composite resin groups cured by the LED (Std) LCUs showed significantly greater depth of cure value than by the halogen LCU and the LED (Exp) LCU (p < 0.05).

과실, 채소류가 수확 후 발생하는 에칠렌 등의 가스를 흡착하는 소재를 개발하여 과재류의 신선도 유지용 포장소재로 개발코자 천연제올라이트와 이를 가공한 소재들간의 특성을 검토하였다. 천연 제올라이트의 성분조성은 $SiO_2$가 66.34%, $Al_2O_3$가 13.89%였고 Si/Al의 몰비가 4.78로서 silica가 비교적 높은 게올라이트였으며, DTA와 TG 곡선에서 $80^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 미미한 탈수를 나타냈고 $1,000^{\circ}C$에서 16%의 감량이 나타났다. X-선 회절분석 결과 mordenite가 주요구성광물이었으며, 비표면적은 천연 제올라이트가 $75.2m^2/g$였으나 가열온도가 높아짐에 따라서 비표면적은 $2.12m^2/g$까지 감소함으로 열처리에 의한 방법은 바람직하지 않았으나, 화학 처리한 것들의 비표면적은 1N HCl로 처리한 것은 $90.78m^2/g$으로 나타나 산처리 한 것이 비표면적이 가장 높게 나타났는데, 이는 천연 제올라이트 보다 약 4배 증가되었다. 따라서, 포장소재로는 산처리한 것이 가장 우수하였다.
