  • Sialolithiasis is a condition in which the salivary gland excretory duct is obstructed due to the formation of calcareous deposits and is uncommon in children compared to adults. The treatment modalities range from a conservative approach involving hydration to a surgical approach. Though several studies have analyzed the sialolith micromorphology structures, studies on pediatric sialoliths remain scarce. This brief communication aims to describe the sialolith micromorphology to understand the mechanism of mineralization and growth of pediatric sialoliths. A 6-year-old Korean female presented with swelling under her tongue. The intraoral examination revealed a painless yellowish hard mass beneath the tongue near the Wharton's duct which was suspected as a sialolith. After receiving the informed consent, the sialolithotomy was performed under local anesthesia. The obtained stone was analyzed through histopathology and transmission electron microscope examinations to understand the mechanism of mineralization and growth of pediatric sialolith. The micromorphology and growth processes of pediatric sialolith remain undescribed. More comprehensive microscopic studies are needed regarding their distinctive characteristics. By expanding knowledge about sialoliths micromorphology, development of new preventive, diagnostic and patient-tailored treatment methods of pediatric sialolithiasis will be enhanced.

  • Lycopus속 15종의 화판(petal)과 악편(sepal)의 미세형태를 주사전자현미경과 실체현미경으로 관찰하여 그 분류학적 유용성을 검토하였다. Lycopus속 분류군들의 화관과 악에 분포하는 모용과 선모는 단세포 원주모(unicellular cylindrical trichome), 표면에 돌기가 있는 단세포 모용(unicellular trichome with papillae), 다세포 모용(simple multicellular trichome), 두상선모(capitate glandular trichome) 및 방패형 선모(peltate glandular trichome) 등 5 종류로 나타났으며, 모용의 종류, 분포, 밀도가 분류군마다 다르게 나타났다. 화관 안쪽면에 단세포 원주모(unicellular cylindrical trichome)의 분포 정도가 각 분류군마다 다르게 나타나, 그 분포 부위에 따라 4가지 유형으로 나눌 수 있었다. 악(calyx)은 악편이 갈라지는 정도와 악편 정단(apex)의 모양으로 4가지 형태로 구분할 수 있었다. 화판과 악편의 안쪽 빛 바깥면을 구성하는 세포의 형태는 그 위치와 분류군에 따라 다양하게 나타났다. 끝으로 관찰된 Lycopus속의 화판 및 악편 미세형태를 검토한 결과 종간 식별에 유용하였다.

  • Cuticle micromorphology of four families of Korean gymnosperms, Cycadaceae, Ginkgoaceae, Taxaceae, and Cephalotaxaceae, were studied with scanning electron microscopy. The outer and inner features of abaxial and adaxial cuticles were described in details; the absent or present of Florin ring, orifice, trichome, and plug and their shape, the shape and periclinal and anticlinal wall sculpture of epidermal cells, the shape of cuticular flange of epidermal cell, guard cell, and subsidiary cell, the number of stomatal bands and rows, and stomatal apparatus including the shape of polar extension, number of subsidiary cells, the sculpture of guard cell and subsidiary cell. Most of these features have not been sufficiently substantiated by the previous reprots. Furthermore, all the species investigated showed distinctive cuticle morphology with morphological and taxonomical informations.

  • Micromorphology of the vessel wall sculptures such as perforation plate, inter-vessel pits, vessel-ray pits, vessel-parenchyma pits, vestured pits, spiral thickening, and warts was observed in 78 species(45 genera, 25 families) of Korean hardwoods using a scanning electron microscopy. The SEM observation revealed the micromorphology of vessel wall sculptures which have not yet been described, and have confirmed findings already established at the light microscopical level.

  • The present study was performed to evaluate the effect of Tetracycline-HCI on the change of implant surface microstructure according to application time. Implants with thermal dual acid etched surface were utilized. Implant surface was rubbed with $50mg/m{\ell}$ Tetracycline-HCI solution and sterilized saline for O.5min, 1min, 1.5min, 2min, 2.5min and 3min. respectively in the test group. Then, specimens were processed for scanning electron microscopic observation and measured surface roughness by optical interferometer. The results of this study were as follows. 1. The thermal dual acid etched surfaces showed many small peaks and valleys distributed overall surface. 2. The surface conditioning with Tetracycline-HCI and saline didn't influence on its micromorphology. In conclusion, the implant with thermal dual acid etched surface has a protective micromorphology from the detoxification with $50mg/m{\ell}$ Tetracycline-HCI and a scrubbing with cotton pellet. Therefore, the detoxification with $50mg/m{\ell}$ Tetracycline-HCI is an effective method for peri-implantitis in case implants with thermal dual acid etched surface.
