Purpose: To evaluate the effect of different-sized drill tips and laser irradiation times on the initial stability of orthodontic miniscrews placed in Er,Cr:YSGG-laser pre-drilled holes in an animal model. Materials and Methods: Laser pre-drilled holes were made in dog mandibular bone with an Er,Cr:YSGG laser using irradiation times of 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 seconds, and tip diameters of 0.4 and 0.6 mm. The maximum diameter and depth of the pre-drilled holes was measured with micro computed tomography. The maximum insertion torque was measured during placement the miniscrew. Result: Laser pre-drilled holes were conical shaped. The maximum diameter of pre-drilled holes increased with longer laser irradiation times (P>0.05) and larger tip diameters (P<0.05). The depth of pre-drilled holes increased with longer laser irradiation times and larger tip diameters (P<0.05). When the 0.4 mm tip, but not the 0.6 mm tip, was used, the insertion torque decreased significantly with longer laser irradiation times (P<0.05). Conclusion: Tip diameter impacted insertion torque more than irradiation time. It takes at least 9 seconds using a 0.6 mm tip to create a 0.8 mm diameter and 1.0 mm depth hole in thick cortical bone.

반감기가 서로 크게 다른 두 종류의 방사성 직접핵분열생성물의 방사능비(activity ratio)를 핵연료의 냉각기간 및 연소이력의 함수로 표현하였으며 연소이력에는 사용후핵연료의 평균연소도, 연소기간, 연소주기간의 간격 그리고 주 핵분열물질등이 포함되었다. 고리 1호기에서 연소된 6개의 사용후 가압경수로(PWR) 핵연료 집합체로 부터 36개의 시료를 제작하여 이들 시료에 대한 감마선 스펙트럼을 고순도(HP) Ge 검출기를 사용하여 수집한 후, 각 스펙트럼을 분석하여 얻은 방사능비 $^{l44}$Ce $^{l37}$ Cs를 이용하여 냉각기간을 계산하였다. 그 결과 $^{l44}$Ce 감마선 검출계수율이 $10^{-3}$ cps(count per second) 정도로 아주 낮았음에도 불구하고 검출된 방사능비 $^{l44}$Ce $^{l37}$ Cs를 사용하여 구한 냉각기간은 원자로 운전기록에 의한 냉각기간 (operator declared cooling time)과 상대적인 차이가 $\pm$5% 이내로 잘 일치한 것으로 부터 핵 분열 생성물 $^{l44}$Ce 및 $^{l37}$ Cs은 냉각기간 결정을 위한 좋은 모니터가 됨을 확인하였다. 여러가지의 연소 이력을 갖는 핵연료를 대상으로 한 본 실험의 경우, 단순하게 모델화한 연소이력을 대입하여 얻은 냉각기간은 실제 연소이력을 대입하여 얻은 냉각기간과 시간차이가 $\pm$0.5년 이내에서 잘 맞았으며 이로부터 연소이력에 대한 정확한 정보 없이도 신뢰할 수 있는 정도의 냉각기간을 추정하는 것이 가능할 것으로 생각되었다. 아울러 냉각기간 결정을 위한 본 기술을 활용한 사용후 핵연료의 증명 및/또는 분류에 대한 타당성 연구를 한 결과 감마선 분광분석 방법으로 검출한 방사능비 $^{l44}$Ce $^{l37}$ Cs에 의해서 결정된 냉각기간은, 조사후시험시설 (post irradiation examination facility)등과 같이 사용후핵연료 집합체를 해체 또는 절단하여 만든 시료를 취급하는 시설등에서,사용후핵연료에 대한 안전관리 및 계량관리를 위하여 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.것으로 사료되었다.

Low power laser therapy is internationally certified and is known to be effective in stimulating DNA in living organisms, increasing protein synthesis and activating cell division, smoothing blood circulation, promoting cell activation, cell regeneration and function. It also has anti-inflammatory, anti-edemic, anti-fibrous dysplastic and neuralogic hyperfunctional effects. This study was intended to verify the effect of LED irradiation therapy on wound healing in cell and animal tests by applying LED irradiator using a laser and laser diode, which was independently designed and developed to emit beams of similar wavelength to that of a laser. This equipment was fabricated using a micro-controller and a high brightness LED, and designed to enable us to control light irradiation time, intensity and reservation. In case of cell proliferation experiment, each experiment was performed to irradiation group and non-irradiation group for tissue cells. MTT assay method was chosen to verify the cell increase of two groups and the effect of irradiation on cell proliferation was examined by measuring 590 nm transmittance of micro-plate reader. In the wound healing experiment, 1$cm^2$ wounds on the skin wound of SD-Rat(Sprague-Dawley Rat) were made. Light irradiation group and none light irradiation group divided, each group was irradiated one hour a day for 9 days. As a result, the cell increase of tissue cells was verified in irradiation group as compared to non-irradiation group. And, compared with none light irradiation group, the lower incidence of inflammation and faster recovery was shown in light irradiation group.

The author studied on the effects of x-irradiation to the development of digital malformation in gestation rats. The time-matings occured between 6 p.m. and 8 a.m. and females with copulation. plugs at 8 a.m. were isolated and properly marked for evidence of copulation. The lower abdomen of mothers were exposed to x-irradiation on the 11½th day of gestation, the critical period developing digital malformation, respectively 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 and 350 rads. At 18½th day of post-conception total 50 pregnant females were dissected and the incidence of digital malformations were obtained. Rat embryos on the 12, 13, 14, 15, 16th day of gestation irradiated by 250 rads were examined for morphogenesis of digital malformation. Digital radiating lines were examined in water and histologically by H-E stain. Supra vital stain samples by Nile-blue sulfate in 37℃ normal saline were prepared for the observation of cell necrosis regions and morphogenesis of digits. The results obtained were as follows; 1. By x-irradiation on 11th day of gestation, digital malformations of Ectrodactylia, Syndactylia Polydactylia and Hematodactylia were developed. Ectrodactylia showed the effective relationship to the amount of irradiation, however Syndactylia ans Polydactylia did not. 2. By x-irradiation, cell necrosis of digital germ was appeared markedly, but in 48 hours after irradiation was depressed to the periphery of digital germ and in 72hours after irradiation was disappeared. Digital radiating line showed marked stage of malformation in 48hours after irradiation and continued to show the same amount of physiological cell necrosis as the compared control group in 72hours. after irradiaion. But in the Syndactylia, physiological cell necrosis was not able to be recognized. 3. Ectrodactylia induced by x-irradiation was considered as the direct resoult of cell necrosis of digital origin, however, Polydactylia and Syndactylia were considered as the resoult of some effect in repair process of x-irradiation damages.

The dying properties of fabrics with Chaenomelis Fructus extract were studied through an investigation of the characteristic of Chaenomelis Fructus colorants, the effect of dyeing conditions (dye temperature, dyeing concentration, and times on dye uptakes), effect of mordant, effect of UV irradiation, and color change in addition, antimicrobial ability and deodorant ability were estimated. In the UV-Visible spectrum, the wavelength of maximum absorption of Chaenomelis Fructus extract was 280 nm and showed that tannin is the major pigment component. From the increase of absorbance by UV irradiation, it was assumed that catechol tannin color was developed through UV irradiation. An increased dyeing concentration resulted in a larger dye uptake. Dye uptake increased as the dyeing time and temperature increased. Chaenomelis Fructus extract showed relatively good affinity to silk than cotton. Mordant, Fe and Cu were effective to increase the dye uptake of cotton fabric in addition, the dye uptake of silk fabric mordanted with Fe and K improved. UV irradiation let the color of dyed fabrics develop regardless of the UV irradiation stage however, UV irradiation on the dyed fabric was more effective than on the extract for the color development. Dyed silk fabric showed very good antimicrobial abilities of 99.9% in addition, deodorant ability improved in the fabric dyed with Chaenomelis Fructus extract.

This study was undertaken to investigate ultrastructural changes according to the radiosensitivity in the spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cell of the seminiferous tubules in Korean native pheasants. During spermatogenetic period, testes were collected from male adult Korean native pheasant and they were used as experimental and control birds. The experimental group was divided into a single-dose whole body irradiation group (400, 600, 800 and 1,000 rads) and a split-dose whole body irradiation groups(400/2, 600/2, 800/2 and 1,000/2 rads). The experimental birds were sacrificed at 24 and 72 hrs after irradiation and the control pheasants were sacrificed at the same time. Ultrastructural changes of Sertoli cells and spermatogonia were investigated by ultrathin section with electron microscope. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The apoptosis was observed after 72 hrs group of the single-dose irradiation of 400 rads. 2. The cytoplasmic organelles of spermatogonia were severely damaged more than that of sertoli cell in 72 hours group of split-dose irradiation of 800 rads. 3. The cytoplasmic organelles of Sertoli cell were severely damaged except the nuclear membrane of Sertoli cells in 72 hrs group of split-dose irradiation of 1,000 rads.

This study was carried out to investigate the variations of catechu dyed fabrics under UV irradiation. Catechu dyed cotton and silk fabrics mordanted with Fe and Cu were irradiated with UV under dry and wet conditions, and then were evaluated on color changes and mechanical properties. Owing to UV irradiation, the K/S values of catechu dyed cotton fabrics increased until a certain amount of time but those of catechu-dyed silk fabrics increased continuously. Cu mordanting cotton fabrics showed the smallest changes due to the UV treatment, and silk fabrics mordanted with Fe showed the largest changes. Wetted fabrics were accelerated maillard browning by UV. Un-mordanted cotton fabrics treated with UV under dry conditions changed its YR color to Y, but changed its Y color to YR under wet conditions. However, mordanted cotton fabrics treated with UV didn't change their color. Dyed silk fabrics except those Fe mordanted and in wet conditions continued to keep their color after UV irradiation. Silk fabric mordanted with Fe under wet conditions changed its Y color to YR by UV irradiation. UV irradiation didn't affect the mechanical properties of catechu-dyed cotton and silk fabrics in any significant way.

Fast neutron irradiation was used to improve the switching speed of a 600-V nonpunch-through insulated gate bipolar transistor. Fast neutron irradiation was carried out at 30-MeV energy in doses of $1{\times}10^8n/cm^2$, $1{\times}10^9n/cm^2$, $1{\times}10^{10}n/cm^2$, and $1{\times}10^{11}n/cm^2$. Electrical characteristics such as current-voltage, forward on-state voltage drop, and switching speed of the device were analyzed and compared with those prior to irradiation. The on-state voltage drop of the initial devices prior to irradiation was 2.08 V, which increased to 2.10 V, 2.20 V, 2.3 V, and 2.4 V, respectively, depending on the irradiation dose. This effect arises because of the lattice defects generated by the fast neutrons. In particular, the turnoff delay time was reduced to 92 nanoseconds, 45% of that prior to irradiation, which means there is a substantial improvement in the switching speed of the device.

An experiment was carried out to investigate the optimum doses of gamma-irradiation for sprouting inhibition of onion bulbs with irradiation time and storage conditions. The results. obtained are as follows: 1) The irradiation doses of 5, 7 and 10 krad, respectively, at 11, 32 and 66 days after harvest were sufficient to inhibit subsequent sprout of onion bulbs obtained from Nampyeong district. When they were irradiated at 96 day after harvest, however, there was little sprout-inhibition by 15 krad. In case of onion bulbs obtained from Changnyeong district, sprout was inhibited by doses of 8 and 12 krad respectively, at 51 and 89 days after harvest. 2) Low-temperature storage after irradiation was not effective in sprout-inhibition of onion bulbs. Onion bulbs stored at low temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ rather showed higher sprouting rate as compared with that of room temperature. 3) Rot increased in irradiated lot and at room temperature, and spores of Aspergillus sp. were little germinated at a level of 100 krad. 4) The respiratory rate of irradiated onion bulbs was higher immediately after irradiation but lower one week after irradiation than control. Respiratory quotient of tissues seems to be little affected by gamma-irradiation.
