  • 환자 몸에 투여되는 주사용제재으로서 약품 내 무균성이 요구되어진다. 현재 대부분의 방사성약품합성 실에서는 사용하기가 비교적 간편하고 민감도가 우수한 Bacterial Endotoxin Test로 방사성약품 내 발열성물질이 존재하는지의 유무를 실험한다. 그렇지만 테스트결과를 해석할 때 가끔씩 위 양성의 결과를 나타내서 결과를 해석 시 혼란을 줄 때도 있다. 이 위 양성의 원인을 알아보기 위해 pH영역이 다른 buffer와 Ethanol sample을 사용해서 실험을 해보았다. 그 결과 pH영역이 너무 산성이나 염기성인 1.0~5.0 그리고 11.2~12.6에서 위 양성의 결과를 나타냈고 Ethanol sample에 있어서는 20~50%에서는 위 양성의 결과를 100%에서는 완전한 양성의 결과를 나타내었다. Pyrogen은 면역력이 약한 환자들에게 있어서 두통이나 발열, 백혈구감소증 등의 증상을 일으키고 심지어 합병증으로 인해 환자들에게 치명적인 반응을 일으키기도 한다. 그러므로 우리는 위양성의 결과에 영향 미치는 이런 요인들을 최대한 배제함으로써 객관적이고 신뢰할만한 Pyrogen test결과를 도출하는게 필요하다.

  • Submicron-sized polymeric particles (SSPP) were used to remove nucleic acids and endotoxins from cell lysates. The positively charged SSPP selectively adsorb nucleic acids and endotoxins and form complexes with them. The complexes can be easily removed by sedimentation or centrifugation. The removal of nucleic acids and endotoxins using SSPP also can be accomplished in the presence of cell and cell debris. Therefore, nucleic acids and endotoxins can be removed in an initial step of the down-stream processes. In bakers yeast and E. coli lysate systems, the level of DNA could be reduced more than three orders of magnitudes and endotoxins more than seven orders of magnitudes concurrently willi the cell debris removal process using SSPP.

  • This paper was to investigate the biovailability of antipyrine, ampicillin and protein binding in pathological rats and rabbits pretreated with typhoid vaccine. The results are as follows: The absorption of antipyrine and ampicillin respectively were reduced in rats pretreated with typhoid vaccine as compared with those of normal rats. Especially absorption of ampicillin was more decreased than those of antipyrine. The blood level of antipyrine in severe state was decreased but in mild state. Blood level of ampicillin was decreased in mild state as well as in severe state. Relative bioavailability of antipyrine and ampicillin were mostly decreased in rabbits pretreated with typhoid vaccine except that of antipyrine in mild state. Renal clearance of antipyrine was not affected, but that of ampicillin was apt to increase. Protein binding of antipyrine and ampicillin were decreased by high concentration of typhoid vaccine.

  • CFC-222 is a novel fluoroqinolone antibacterial agent synthesized and under development by the Cheil Jedang Corporation, Korea. CFC-222 exerts the antibacterial activity by inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase leading to bactericidal action. In in vitro and in vivo preclinical testing, CFC-222 has been shown to possess a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. In particular CFC-222 is very potent against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus spp., Streptocuccus spp. (in particular penicillin G-resistant and -susceptible S. pneumoniae) and Enterococcus spp. when compared to other quinolones (ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin or lomefloxacin). CFC-222 also showed potent activity against the methicillin resistant clinical isolates of S. aureus (MRSA). Against Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, Pseudomonas and Sarcina) the activity of CFC-222 was slightly weaker than that of ciprofloxacin, but was more potent than that of ofloxacin or lomefloxacin. In urinary systemic infections caused by both Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, CFC-222 demonstrated a potent therapeutic efficacy in particular against Cram-positive bacteria S. aureus, S. pyrogen 203 and S. pneumonia TypeIII.

  • Biological safety, physico-chemical and microbiological experiments were carried out in order to study the possibility of radiation sterilization on medical products, such as polyethylene and polystyrene bottles, gauze sponges and surgical silk suture. Results are as follows: 1. Biological test on plastic samples as to acute systemic toxicity, eye irritation, skin irritation, pyrogen, haemolysis showed satisfactory results. But physico-chemically, the oxidizable matter, nonvolatile residues, residue on ignition seemed to be increased slightly in irradiated samples, though the experimental results were within the range of U.S.P. 19, N.F. and K.P. III. 2. After irradiation, both plastic and gauze sponges showed considerable decrease in pH. 3. Most medical products were sterilized by 1.5 Mard. For the sterilization of the suigical silk suture, 4.5 Mrad is required dul to its radiation resistant micro-organisms. 4. Biologically, total dose of 2.5 Mrad was safe enough to sterilize the medical products, and physico-chemically the results are acceptable according to U.S.P. 19 and K.P. III. However, better results may be expected when the quality of material and additives are improved.

  • These biologic test procedures are designed to test the suitability of P.V.C. made in Korea intended for parenteral preparation, which were based on the U.S. Pharmacopeia XIX "Biologic Test-Plastic Container", Official from July 1, 1975. Healthy adult human blood and rabbits weighing 2\ulcorner.2Kg were used for test materials. Sample P.V.C. were sampled from the medical equipments made in Korea randomly and Control P.V.C. were sampled from the standardized Cobe and Polystan P.V.C. tubes. P.V.C. extract was prepared from a homogeneous P.V.C. samples by incubating 60 square centimeters of the sample per 20 millimeters of sterile pyrogen-free saline at 70\ulcorner for 72 hours or autoclaving at 120\ulcorner for 1 hour. The Implantation Test was designed to evaluate the reaction of living tissue to the plastic by the method of the implantation of the Sample itself into animal tissue. The Systemic Injection Test, the Intracutaneous Test, and the remainders were designed to determine the biological response of animals to plastics by the single-dose injection of specific extracts prepared from a Sample. The results are as follows; 1.Implantation Test - No significant difference for reactions was noted between the Sample treated animal and the Control after 72 hours of implantation. 2.Systemic Toxicity Injection Test - No sign of toxicity and/or death immediately after injection and at 4, 24, 48 hours respectfully after injection. 3.Intracutaneous Test - None of the animals treated with the Sample showed a significantly greater reaction than the observed in the animals treated with Blank. 4.Pyrogen Assay-Only one animal treated with the Sample showed the maximal rise of rectal temperature about 0.2\ulcorner after 3 hours of injection, but remainders showed no change. 5.Hemolytic Index - The positive Control tube of distilled water exhibited complete hemolysis while the negative Control tube and P.V.C. extract were negative demonstrating no hemolysis. 6.Cell Morphology of Erythrocytes and Leukocytes on Stored, Heparinized Human Blood -- There was no significant difference in the morphology of either the Control or Sample extract. 7.Clotting Mechanism of Human Blood in vitro - After allowing to the P.V.C. extract at room temperature for 5 Hours and at 10\ulcorner for 24 hours, there was no appreciable difference in Prothrombin Time under these conditions. 8.Clotting Mechanism of Rabbit in vivo - At the termination of 5 days after intraperitoneal injection of the P.V.C. extract, no significant changes in Clotting Time were observed.

  • Titanium and its alloys offer attractive properties in a variety of applications. These are widely used for the field of biomedical implants because of its good biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance. Titanium anodizing is often used in the metal finishing of products, especially those can be used in the medical devices with dense oxide surface. Based on SAE/AMS (Society of Automotive Engineers/Aerospace Material Specification) 2488D, it has the specification for industrial titanium anodizing that have three different types of titanium anodization as following: Type I is used as a coating for elevated temperature forming; Type II is used as an anti-galling coating without additional lubrication or as a pre-treatment for improving adherence of film lubricants; Type III is used as a treatment to produce a spectrum of surface colours on titanium. In this study, we have focused on Type II anodization for the medical (dental and orthopedic) application, the anodized surface was modified with gray color under alkaline electrolyte. The surface characteristics were analyzed with Focused Ion Beam (FIB), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), surface roughness, Vickers hardness, three point bending test, biocompatibility, and corrosion (potentiodynamic) test. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy was used for specimen, the anodizing procedure was conducted in alkaline solution (NaOH based, pH>13). Applied voltage was range between 20 V to 40 V until the ampere to be zero. As results, the surface characteristics of anodic oxide layer were analyzed with SEM, the dissecting layer was fabricated with FIB method prior to analyze surface. The surface roughness was measured by arithmetic mean deviation of the roughness profile (Ra). The Vickers hardness was obtained with Vickers hardness tester, indentation was repeated for 5 times on each sample, and the three point bending property was verified by yield load values. In order to determine the corrosion resistance for the corrosion rate, the potentiodynamic test was performed for each specimen. The biological safety assessment was analyzed by cytotoxic and pyrogen test. Through FIB feature of anodic surfaces, the thickness of oxide layer was 1.1 um. The surface roughness, Vickers hardness, bending yield, and corrosion resistance of the anodized specimen were shown higher value than those of non-treated specimen. Also we could verify that there was no significant issues from cytotoxicity and pyrogen test.
