As a series of study on the removal of astringency and production of tannin substances, this experiment was conducted to investigate changes of tannin contents and microscopic observation on leaves of persimmon(Diospyros kaki L.). Changes of tannin contents of leaves and fruits in Daegu Bansi(astringent variety) were of similar tendency in content of total and soluble tannin during growth. It seemed therefore that tannin contents of leaves in astringent variety were closely concerned with tannin of fruits. But Fuyu(sweet variety) was different from each other during its growth. Histological form of leaves in microscopic observation had similar tendency between astringent and sweet varieties. It was observed that tannin substances were contained in epidermis cells of levels, that tannin substances were transfered in phloems of nerves system, and that tannin cell existed too in the vicinity of nerves system.

The present study was performed to evaluate the effects of Tetracycline-HCI on the microstructure change of SLA implant surface according to application time. In the Tetracycline-HCI group, 6 implants were rubbed with sponges soaked $50mg/m{\ell}$ Tetracycline-HCI solution for O.5min., lmin., 1. 5min., 2min., 2.5min. and 3min. In the saline group. another 6 implants conditioned with sponges soaked saline using same methods. One implant wasn't conditioned anything. Then, the changes of surface roughness values were evaluated by optical interferometer & specimens were processed for scanning electron microscopic observation. The results of this study were as follows: 1. In both Tetracycline-HCI group & saline group, there are no significant differences between surface roughness values before & after surface detoxification. And in scanning electron microscopic observation. there are slightly changes of implant surface structures but this changes were not significant by comparison with no treatment implant surface. 2. In the changes of surface roughness values & the scanning electron microscopic observation, there were no significant differences between saline & Tetracycline-HCI groups. In conclusion, the detoxification with $50mg/m{\ell}$ Tetracycline-HCI within 3 minutes can be applied for treatment of peri-implantitis in SLA surface implants. without surface microstructure changes.

In this study, microscopic observation was made on the surface of cement paste immersed in an aquatic environment for 100 days at electrochemical treatment to mitigate the leaching of alkali ions. To quantitatively rank the hydration products, unhydrated grains and porosity in the interfacial region, the backscattered electron(BSE) images were obtained by scanninng electron microscopy. As a result, it was found that the porosity on the surface was significantly reduced by the electrochemical treatment, while unhydrated grains were more or less increased presumably limited hydration reaction under electric charge. At electrochemical treatment, Ca²⁺ ions present in C-S-H gel could be precipitated with OH^- to form Ca(OH)₂ then to lower C-S-H gel and simultaneously to enhance Ca(OH)₂. Substantially, the risk of alkali leaching could be lowered by the limited ionized matrix under electrochemical treatment.

Gentiana scabra Bunge var buergeri Max, can be widely used such as cut-flower, ornamental and medicinal plant among the native plants. Microscopic and Scanning electron microscopic observation plant were carried out to estimates the characteristics correlated with germinability and germination process, and the results were as follows. The seeds were germinated just after harvest, and it means that there is no or little dormancy of the seeds. Matured seeds showed higher germinability than those of immatured. As the storage period was longer, immatured seeds showed shorter longevity than those of matured. The average longevity was about 190 days. According to the observation results of morphological changes during the germination, seed coat was expanded with water absorption immediately after seeding, and radicals were observed 2 days after seeding. Root hairs were formed behind the growing tip of the root on 4 days after seeding and cotyledon were unfolded on 6 days after seeding. In the microscopic observation of leaf tissues, it could be easily distinguished between midrib, and leaf blade, and also observed upper epidermis, palisade parenchyma and spongy parenchyma consisted as a sing1e layer. Palisade parenchyma was consisted of a single layer of cell. Stomata were restricted lower surface, arranged as anamocytic type, and surrounded by guard cells. In the microscopic anatomy of stem were consisted of cortical layer, forming a single layer of epidermis and parenchyma, and vascular bundle which was consisted of continuous cylinder of vascular tissues.

This study was designed to investigate the appearence and the characteristics of the apoptotic cells and the process of the joint cavity formation in mouse knee joint. Fetal mouse knee joints from 15 to 19 days of gestation were used. Paraffin-embedded serial sections, stained with H & E for light microscopic observation, Epon 812 embedded thin sections for electron microscopic observation and Lowicryl HM 20 embedded thin sections for immune-electron microscopic observation were prepared. Monoclonal antibodies to $\beta-tubulin$ and polyclonal antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were used for immune-electron microscopic study. The results obtained were as follows. 1. At 15 days of gestation, blood vessels, which have invaded in the mesenchymal cells, were present in the synovium, to form the joint cavity in the future. 2. At 16 days of gestation, the joint cleft was first appeared and several RBCs were present in the joint cleft. The invasion of blood vessels into the joint cleft was continuing, and apoptotic cells were present in the inner cell layer, adjacent to the joint cleft. Necrotic cells were also present in the outer cell layer; they were present 18 days of gestation, but apoptotic cells did not appear after 17 days of gestation. 3. In the apoptotic cells, transglutaminase were localized around vacuoles and the marginal site of the cytoplasm. 4. In the apoptotic cells, tubulin was around the endoplasmic reticulum and the marginal site of the cytoplasm. In the late stage of apoptotic cells, tubulin was localized diffusely in the cytoplasm. Tubulin was also strongly labeled around in the cytoplasm of the neighboring cell at which the apoptotic body was phagocytosed. Tubulin labeled particles were apparently increased in the seperated apoptotic bodies. On the basis of the above findings, it is proposed that during the development of the mouse knee joint, blood vessel invasion first occurs and then apoptosis and cell necrosis follow it. In the apoptotic cell, present in the synovium of the developing knee joint of the mouse. it is suggested that the redistribution of tubulin is associated with apoptotic process. And transglutaminase overexpressed in the apoptotic cell.

With a focused laser beam, we make a microscopic change on a thin film, and organize the overall system that can observe the change with a microscope. This system utilizes the energy of a laser beam which is focused by a simple lense system. That is a laser beam which has its waist at working distance of a lense. The microscopic change induced by the energy of laser beam focused through a lense can be observed in real time. The experiment with this system shows that the 10mW He-Ne 632.8nm laser can change the black vinyl instantaneously.

To compare the quality of ultrastructural preservation of Scanning Electron Microscopic specimens dried with different methods; pure air-drying, air-drying with using Tetramethylsilane(TMS), four kind of air-drying using Hexamethyldisilazane(HMDS) and critical point drying(CPD), we conducted scanning electron microscopic observation on liver, skeletal muscle and intestinal tissues from laboratory rat treated with each method. In pure air drying group, severe distortion of tissue surface was observed, and in HMDS treated group, only liver tissue showed slight distortion. But in TMS treated group, each tissue showed a good presentation comparable to CPD group. The results suggest that the method of air-drying using TMS may be the former is less expensive and simple be and also time-saving.

Scanning electron microscopic observations were carried out on the worn surface and the wear debris of ceramic materials to investigate the wear mechanism of those in dry rolling contact. It was found from the scanning electron microscopic observations that the wear in ceramic materials is related to brittle fracture and has two types of wear mechanisms, small scale wear and larvae scare wear. Plate-like wear debris were created from the initial surface cracks and defects. The small scale wear was related to real contact area and large scale wear was related to HertzJan contact area. A wear model was proposed on the basis of scanning electron microscopic observations.

This study was accomplished to investigate the ultrastructure of mucous glands in dorsal skin of frog (Rana catesbeiana) by means of scanning and transmission electron microscopes. The dorsal skin of Rana catesbeiana is composed of epidermis and dermis. The cutaneous mucous glands consist of inner glandular epithelial cells and outer myoepithelial cells. Glandular epithelial cells are divided into four types by the microscopic ultrastructure; ER-rich cell, round secretory granule-containing cell, foam-like granule mass-containing cell, mitochondria-rich cell. Myoepithelial cell has a long elliptical nucleus and filled with fibrous materials in the cytoplasm. As a result of scanning microscopic observation, the surface of dorsal skin is covered with cutaneous protrusions. The opening sites of the mucous glands are irregularly distributed in dorsal skin.

The MUBEX (MUtsu Bay sea surface temperature validation EXperiment) campaign has been held from 1995 to 1997 in summer. During the MUBEX campaign, a thermal infrared camera (TIC) installed on a research vessel, which was also equipped with other various observation devices, was intensively used to observe microscopic structure of sea skin surface temperature (SSST) behavior. We have now a total number of 500,000 images observed by the TIC under various weather conditions, i.e., very calm or wavy sea condition, and clear, patchy or cloudy sky condition. In this paper, we show typical SSST patterns observed by the TIC, and describe the result of statistical analysis of SSST.
