  • This study was conducted to compare the hemostatic efficacy of three ferric subsulfate- and chitosan-based styptics as a powder and a gel containing ferric subsulfate and chitosan (FSC-PO and FSC-G, respectively) and a soaked pad containing ferric subsulfate and lidocaine (FSL-SP) using a rat tail bleeding model. The cytotoxicity of the styptics against L-929 mouse fibroblasts was also evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 assay. Four groups of 10 rats each were assigned to the three different styptics and a non-treated control groups. Rat tail tips were transected, after which styptics were applied with pressure. The wounds were observed for hemostasis for 3 min, then irrigated with saline to check for recurrent hemorrhage. L-929 mouse fibroblasts were exposed to extracts of the styptics (100 mg/mL) and their dilutions (1:10, 1:100, and 1:1,000). FSC-PO and FSC-G more effectively controlled initial hemorrhage than FSL-SP (p = 0.033). Additionally, FSC-PO and FSC-G more effectively maintained hemostasis than the control group (p = 0.02 and p < 0.01, respectively). However, all styptics showed enhanced cytotoxicity against L-929 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, although FSC-PO and FSC-G would be recommended to control hemorrhage, the benefits of styptics must be balanced against the clinical significance of their cytotoxicity.

  • The study on the cytotoxicities of heavy metals, metal-metal and metal-chelator combinations was carried out to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of those on mouse L929 fibroblasts. The colorimetric assays (NR and MTT) were conveniently carried out in 96-well microtiter plates. The rank order was Cd > Zn Ni > Cr(III) for the heavy metals tested. Examination of the effect of metal-metal interaction on cytotoxicity showed a moderate reduction of cadmium toxicity by zinc. The colorimetric assays were also effectively used to investigate the effect of the chelators, ethylenediamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) and chitosan. Reduction of heavy metal toxixity by chelator was efficient.

  • This study was carried out particutarly focusing on the antitumor effects of extracts obtained from mushroom, Daedalea dickinsii against Hela cell, Hep $G_{2}$, cell, L 929 cell and Sarcoma-180. Antitumor effect of hot water extracts obtained from Daedalea dickinsii against Hela cell showed at the highest level of 70% when adiministrated at the concentration of 1.5 mg/100 ml, however Hep $G_{2}$, cell inhibited 40% at the same concentration of hot water extracts. Antitumor effects of methanol extract of Daedalea dickinsii against Hela cell indicated at the highest level of 60% when 4 mg/ml was administerated. Antitumor effect of hot water extract of Daedalea dickinsii inhibited 51.03% against L929 cell. The solid tumor sarcoma-180 growth inhibition of methanol extract of Deadalea dickinsii inhibited 45.67% when administrated at the concentration of 60mg/kg, and the life prolongation was higher 30.88% than that control group.

  • XTT assay와 SRB assay를 이용하여 Hep3B와 L929 세포에서 생활하수처리장과 농공단지폐수처리장 방류수의 세포독성을 알아본 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) XTT, SRB 실험법에 적용하여 대표적인 발암성 물질인 Benzo(a)Pyrene의 세포독성을 평가 할 수 있었다. Benzo(a)Pyrene 30uM농도는 Hep 3B와 L929 세포에서 약 50%의 세포독성을 나타내었다. 2) 단백질합성과 세포호흡의 활성도로 세포독성을 평가할 수 있는 실험법인 XTT와 SRB 실험법에 적용하여 방류수를 추출 농축한 실제 시료에 대한 세포독성을 평가할 수 있었다. 3) 생활하수처리장의 방류수에 비해 다종 고농도의 화학물질로 오염되어있는 농공단지폐수처리장 방류수에서의 독성발현이 더 높았다. 4) 생활하수처리장 방류수와 농공단지폐수처리장 방류수 중 오염도가 가장 심각한 4지점의 화학물질 분석 결과와 in vitro bio-assay에 의한 세포독성 결과가 일치하였다.

  • In this work, imaging and study of elastic property of the living cell was performed. The motivation of this work was to seek the possibility of exploiting Young's modulus as a disease indicator using Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) and also to gain fundamental understanding of cell mechanics for applications in medical nanorobots of the future. L-929 fibroblast adherent cell was used as the sample. Imaging condition in cell culturing media environment was done in very low speed ($20{\mu}m/ s$) compared to that in the ambient environment. For measuring the Young's modulus of the living cell, AFM indentation method was used. From the force-distance curve obtained from the indentation experiment the Young's modulus could be derived using the Hertz model. The Young's modulus of living L-929 fibroblast cell was $1.29{\pm}0.2$ kPa.

  • To investigate the effect on the antimicrobial activity against S.aureus ATCC 6538, E.coli KCTC 1039 and cell toxic level against transformed mouse fibroblast L929 in formula added with various concentrations of UVB blockers commonly used in cosmetic products, these experiments were carried out by preservative efficacy testing methods and in vitro cytotoxicity methods. The results obtained were as follow ; 1) Octyl Dimethyl PABA had a broad antibacterial spectrum against the Gram (+) and the Gram(-) bacteria at 5.84 % concentration, but not Octyl Methoxycinnamate. 2) Antibacterial activity was decreased in a combined UVB blocker system of squalane base. Especially, Octyl Dimethyl PABA was inactivated by Octyl Methoxycinnamate at 5.84% concentration to a large extents , but not 4-Methylbenzylidene Camphor. 3) Within in vitro cytotoxicity by use of mouse fibroblast L929 on UV-B blockers, NR assay was more excellent than MTT assay on quantitative
