  • PURPOSE. To evaluate the effects of surface treatments on shear bond strength (SBS) between microwave and conventionally sintered zirconia core/veneers. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 96 disc shaped Noritake Alliance zirconia specimens were fabricated using YenaDent CAM unit and were divided in 2 groups with respect to microwave or conventional methods (n=48/group). Surface roughness (Ra) evaluation was made with a profilometer on randomly selected microwave (n=10) and conventionally sintered (n=10) cores. Specimens were then assessed into 4 subgroups according to surface treatments applied (n=12/group). Groups for microwave (M) and conventionally (C) sintered core specimens were as follows; $M_C$,$C_C$: untreated (control group), $M_1,C_1:Al_2O_3$ sandblasting, $M_2,C_2$:liner, $M_3,C_3:Al_2O_3$ sandblasting followed by liner. Veneer ceramic was fired on zirconia cores and specimens were thermocycled (6000 cycles between $5^{\circ}-55^{\circ}C$). All specimens were subjected to SBS test using a universal testing machine at 0.5 mm/min, failure were evaluated under an optical microscope. Data were statistically analyzed using Shapiro Wilk, Levene, Post-hoc Tukey HSD and Student's t tests, Two-Way-Variance- Analysis and One-Way-Variance-Analysis (${\alpha}$=.05). RESULTS. Conventionally sintered specimens ($1.06{\pm}0.32{\mu}m$) showed rougher surfaces compared to microwave sintered ones ($0.76{\pm}0.32{\mu}m$)(P=.046), however, no correlation was found between SBS and surface roughness (r=-0.109, P=.658). The statistical comparison of the shear bond strengths of $C_3$ and $C_1$ group (P=.015); $C_C$ and $M_C$ group (P=.004) and $C_3$ and $M_3$ group presented statistically higher (P=.005) values. While adhesive failure was not seen in any of the groups, cohesive and combined patterns were seen in all groups. CONCLUSION. Based on the results of this in-vitro study, $Al_2O_{3-}$ sandblasting followed by liner application on conventionally sintered zirconia cores may be preferred to enhance bond strength.

  • Purpose: Recent research showed that total mixed ration (TMR) feeding for pigs improved the productivity and reduced feed cost and manure odor. An automatic TMR feeding system was developed for this study because the conventional feeder cannot deliver the TMR containing roughage. Methods: Conventional feeding systems and physical properties of TMR were surveyed, and performance tests of the conventional feeder were conducted to develop a TMR feeder. Based on the TMR feeder was developed and installed, driving, measuring weight, radio frequency identification (RFID) reading, and discharging test for feeding were conducted to ensure the performance. Results: Moisture content, density, and angle of repose of the TMR 1 (mixture of 30% cut IRG silage and 70% concentrates) were 31.6%, 387 $kg/m^3$, and $51^{\circ}$, respectively. Moisture content, density, and angle of repose of the TMR 2 (mixture of 45% concentrates, 30% cut IRG silage and by-products, 10% bean curd refuse, 10% others, and 5% fermenter) were 22.2%, 544 $kg/m^3$, and $50^{\circ}$, respectively. The coefficient of variation (C.V.) of conventional concentrate feeding were 1.9~4.1%, and C.V. of TMR containing 1~3% cut IRG roughage feeding by conventional feeder were 9~42%. The conventional disc type feeder was not suitable for TMR feeding because the supply unit was clogged. The C.V. of TMR 1 was 0.6~7.9% when 0.5~10 kg of the TMR supplied, and it was suitable for feeding grow-finish pigs and sows. On the contrary, the C.V. with TMR 2 was 28% when 0.5 kg of the TMR supplied, and it was not suitable for feeding sows. Conclusions: The TMR feeder developed in this study was suitable for feeding grow-finish pigs because the feeder performed stably with over 5.0 kg feed. However, the feeder showed a lack of accuracy for feeding sows because the amount of each feed was more than 0.5 kg per a feeding. Therefore, the improvement of outlet structure for accurate feeding is needed for sow feeding.

  • For the investigation of microbiological and immunological specificity of Bacteroides gingivalis, Bacteroides gingivalis were isolated, enumerated and characterized from 13 Korean rapidly progressive periodontitis and 7 healthy control by anaerobic culture technique. The total proportion of black-pigmented Bacteroides from Korean R.P.P. patients and healthy control were 8.78% and 0.92%, respectively, among total isolated black-pigmented Bacteroides. In antibiotic susceptibility test, Bacteroides gingivalis isolated from R.P.P. patients were sensitive to Ampicillin and Tetracycline, and resistant to Gentamicin and Erythromycin in disc diffusion method. In antibiotic broth dilution method, the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) to Bacteroides gingivalis was 2 unit/ml of Penicillin and $0.25{\sim}1{\mu}g/ml$ of Tetracycline, respectively. The concentration of serum IgG in rapidly progressive periodontitis patients were sigificantly higher than that of healthy control, and concentration of diluted gingival crevicular IgG has not any significant differences between two groups. Serum and gingival crevicular IgG antibody to Bacteroides gingivalis were significantly higher titer in rapidly progressive periodontitis patients to compare with healthy control. The lipopolysaccharide profiles of 2 Korean B. gingivalis in silver stained sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were similar to type strains of B. gingivalis and typical LPS band were appeared around the 24-Kd molecular weight. Immunodiffusion test and immunoelectrophoresis of the L.P.S. extracted from 2 Korean B. gingivalis and 2 kinds of type strains of B. gingivalis showed that B. gingivalis Korean-1 was reacted identically to B. gingivalis ATCC 33277. In trypsin and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase activity test of 2 Korean B. gingivalis, both of them revealed positive trypsin and negative ${\alpha}$-glucosidase activity, respectively. These investigation suggested that B. gingivalis is important pathogenic plaque bacteria for the pathogenesis of periodontitis and further study is needed to purify and characterize of the species-specific antigens of this organisms to develop monoclonal antibody and potential diagnostic reagents.

  • Background: Honey bees play a crucial role in pollination and ecological balance. Apis mellifera L. colonies, especially those located in specific geographic regions, such as the palm garden in Eastern Thailand, are susceptible to potential threats from microbial contaminants. Understanding and detecting microbial organisms in these beehives is essential for the preservation of bee health, honey production, and the broader ecosystem. However, the problem of microbial infection and antibiotic-resistant bacteria is more severe and continuously increasing, resulting in a health, economic, and social crisis. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of microorganisms in A. mellifera beehives in palm gardens in Rayong province, Eastern Thailand. Results: Ten swabs in transport media were swabbed and obtained from different parts of each beehive (1 swab per beehive), for a total of 10 hives. Traditional microbial culture-based methods, biochemical tests, and antimicrobial susceptibility (disc-diffusion) tests were used to detect microbial organisms and antibiotic resistance in bacteria. The swab tests from nine beehives resulted in the detection of Gram-positive bacteria (63.64%), Gram-negative bacteria (27.27%), and fungi/yeast (9.09%). These microorganisms are classified as a group of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus spp. and made up 40.91% of the bacteria discovered. Other bacteria found were Coryneform bacteria (13.64%), Pantoea spp. (13.64%), Bacillus spp. (9.09%), yeast (9.09%), glucose non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli (9.09%), and Pseudomonas spp. (4.55%). However, due to the traditional culture-based and 0biochemical tests usually used to identify the microbial organisms in clinical specimens and the limitation of identifying some environmental microbial species, the results of the antimicrobial susceptibility test cannot reveal if the organism is resistant or susceptible to the drug. Nevertheless, drug-sensitive inhibition zones were formed with each antibiotic agent. Conclusions: Overall, the study supports prevention, healthcare, and public health systems. The contamination of microorganisms in the beehives may affect the quality of honey and other bee products or even the health of the beekeeper. To avoid this kind of contamination, it is therefore necessary to wear personal protective equipment while harvesting honey and other bee products.

  • 된장은 콩을 주원료로 한 우리나라의 대표적 발효, 숙성식품으로 식생활에서 주요 단백질 섭취원이자, 조미료로서 중요한 역할을 차지해왔다. 쌀된장은 쌀을 첨가한 전통된장으로 전통장류와 메주에서 분리한 효소활성 및 항균효과 우수균주 B. subtilis(HJ18-4), A. oryzae(MD05)를 starter로 이용하여, 흩임메주(Rice 1), disc형 메주(Rice 2), 일반육면체메주(Rice 3)로 제형을 달리한 쌀된장의 품질특성을 평가하였다. 발효기간에 따라 아미노태 질소, 암모니아태 질소, 환원당 함량, protease 활성, ${\alpha}$-amylase활성, 총 균수, 유산균수 변화를 측정하였다. 아미노태 질소 함량의 변화는 Rice 3이 21일까지 34.10~199.70 mg%로 급격히 증가하였으며, 암모니아태 질소함량은 다른 처리구에 비해 Rice 1이 639.29 mg%로 가장 높았다. 환원당 함량은 0.024~0.498%로 실험군별 큰 차이는 없었으며, 발효가 진행됨에 따라 증가하였다. Protease 활성은 Rice 2 및 3이 다른 처리구에 비해 95.55~95.92 unit/g으로 높았으며, 발효가 진행됨에 따라 증가하였다. ${\alpha}$-Amylase 활성은 Rice 2, 3이 발효 14일째 36.65~341.27 unti/g으로 급격한 증가를 보였다. 쌀된장의 숙성기간에 다른 총 균수 측정 결과 발효기간 동안 일정하였으며 Rice 1이 42일째 $4.2{\times}10^8$ CFU/g으로 가장 높은 총 균수를 나타내었다. 유산균수는 발효기간 동안 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 B. subtillis와 A. oryzae를 접종하고, 메주 형태가 Rice 3(2,000 g, $20cm{\times}15cm{\times}5cm$)으로 제조 시 아미노태 질소, 암모니아태 질소 및 효소활성 측정 결과, 품질특성이 가장 좋았음을 알 수 있었다. 쌀된장의 숙성기간 동안 품질특성이 가장 좋은 Rice 3의 유기산과 유리아미노산 함량을 분석하였다. 유기산을 분석한 결과, citric, lactic, succinic, fumaric, malic acid가 동정되었다. 이들 유기산 중 citric acid과 lactic acid의 함량이 각각 1,190.1 및 517.28 mg/kg 순으로 가장 높았다. 유리아미노산 분석 결과, glutamic acid와 aspartic acid가 1,959.88 및 1,085.00 mg/100 g으로 함량이 가장 높았으며, leucine, lysine, valine 등의 순으로 함유되어 있었다. 본 연구결과로 효소활성이 우수한 균주로 활용된 쌀된장의 제조에 있어서 제형별 특징에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다.

  • 본(本) 실험(實驗)은 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)가 잘 형성(形成)된 소나무(Pinus densiflora S. et Z.)의 굽어진 수간(樹幹)과 곧은 지재(枝材) 및 지면(地面)에 노출된 측근(測根)에서 압축이상재율(壓縮異常材率)과 편심율(偏心率)변이에 따른 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)와 대응재(對應材) 및 측면재(側面材)의 조직학적(組織學的) 특성(特性)과 방사조직(放射組織)의 수량적(數量的) 특성(特性)을 조사(調査) 검토(檢討)하고자 실시(實施)하였다. 본(本) 시험(試驗)에서 수간(樹幹)은 지상(地上)에서 수고방향(樹高方向)으로 상승함에 따라, 지재(枝材)는 수간(樹幹)에서 가지방향으로 멀어짐에 따라, 압축이상재율(壓縮異常材率)과 편심율(偏心率)이 줄어드는 경향을 나타내었으므로 20cm간격으로 각각 4개씩의 원판(圓板)을 채취(採取)하여 시편(試片)으로 사용(使用)하였다. 또한 근재(根材)는 압축이상재(壓縮異狀材)가 가장 양호(良好)하게 형성(形成)된 부위(部位)에서 한 개의 원판(圓板)을 채취(採取)하여 사용(使用)하였다. 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)의 조직학적(組織學的) 특성(特性)은 횡단면상(橫斷面上) 가도관(假導管)의 둥근형태(形態), 춘재(春材)로 부터 추재(秋材)로의 매우 점진적(漸進的)인 가도관이행(假導管移行), 가도관선단부의 뒤얽힘 및 나선강(螺旋腔)과 세포간극의 존재 등 측면재(側面材) 및 대응재(對應材)와 다른 특성(特性)을 나타냈으며, 압축이상재율(壓縮異常材率)과 편심율(偏心率)이 작아짐에 따라 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)와 대응재(對應材) 및 측면재간조직학적(側面材間組織學的) 특성(特性)의 차이(差異)가 다소 줄어드는 경향을 보였지만 그 특성(特性)은 유지(維持)됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)의 단위면적 당 수직 수지구수는 대응재(對應材)다 적었으나 단위연륜당 수직수지구의 수는 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)가 대응재(對應材)보다 많았으며 단위면적당 방추형방사조직(紡錘形放射組織)(평균수지구(水平樹脂溝)의 수(數와) 단열방사조직(單列放射組織)의 수(數)는 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)와 대응재(對應材) 및 측면재간(側面材間)에 차이(差異)가 없였다. 그렇지만 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)의 방추형방사조직(紡錘形放射組織)과 단열방사조직(單列放射組織)의 폭(幅)은 대응재(對應材) 및 측면재(側面材)보다 넓으나 이들의 세포고(細胞高)는 낮은 경향(傾向)을 나타내어 이들 방사조직(放射組織)의 폭(幅)과 세포고(細胞高)는 압축이상재(壓縮異常材)의 고유한 특성(特性)이라 생각되었다.
