Studies on some biodegradable polymers and other materials such as hydrogels have shown the promising potential for a variety of surgical applications. Postoperative adhesion caused by the natural consequence of surgical wound healing results in problems of the repeated surgery. Recently, scientists have developed absorbable anti-adhesion barriers that can protect a tissue from adhesion in case they are in use; however, they are dissolved when no longer needed. Although these approaches have been attempted to fulfill the criteria for adhesion prevention, none can perfectly prevent adhesions in all situations. Overall of this work, a new method to fabricate an anti-adhesion membrane using biodegradable polymer and hydrogel has been developed. The ideal barrier for preventing postoperative adhesion would have the following properties; it should be (i) resorbable (ii) non-reactive (iii) easy to apply (iv) capable of being fixed in position. In order to fulfill these properties, we adopted solid freeform fabrication method combined with surface modification which includes the hydrogel coating, therefore, inner or outer structure can be controlled and the property of anti adhesion can be improved.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of tetracycline(TC}, flurbiprofen, and PDGF-BB loaded biodegradable membranes on the cell-attachment, the activity of loaded PDGF-BB, in vivo release kinetics, and guided bone regenerative potentials. To evaluate the cell attachment to membranes, the number of gingival fibroblasts attached to each membrane(10% TC, 10% flurbiprofen, $200ng/cm^2$ PDGF-BB loaded membranes, drug-unloaded membrane) was counted by coulter counter and the morphologic pattern of attached cells was examined under SEM. To determine whether the activity of loaded PDGF-BB is sustained, the cellular growth and survival rate of gingival fibroblasts was used for both standard PDGF-BB and loaded PDGF-BB. For evaluation of in vivo release kinetics, drug-loaded membranes were implanted on the dorsal skin of the rats. On 1, 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 days after implantation, the amount of remaining drugs were measured by HPLC assay for TC and flurbiprofen, and by ${\gamma}-scintillation$ counter for $PDGF-BB^{1125}$. For evaluation of guided regenerative potential, the amount of new bone in the calvarial defect(5mm in diameter) of the rat was measured by histomorphometry 1 and 2 weeks after implantation of membranes. The number of cells attached to the PDGF-BB loaded membrane was largest as compared with the other mernbranes.(p< 0.05) The activity of loaded PDGF-BB was not significantly different from the activity of standard PDGF-BB.(p<0.05) After initial burst release of drug during the first 24 hours, drugs were gradually released for 4 weeks. Especially the release rate of PDGF-BB was nearly constant during 4 weeks. PDGF-BB loaded membranes(200, $400ng/cm^2$) were effective in guided bone regeneration as compared with drug-unloaded membrane. These results implicate that drug-loaded biodegradable membranes might be a useful for guided bone regeneration.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new biodegradable membrane - atelocollagen as a guided tissue regeneration barrier on the dehiscence defects adjacent to the dental implants. 3 beagle dogs were selected for this study and all the mandibular premolars($P_1,P_2,P_3&P_4$) were extracted. Twelve weeks after the extraction, the edentulous ridges were formed to be placed the titanium plasma-sprayed IMZ implants. Four implant osteotomies were performed on each side of the mandible. The osteotomies were placed facially in the edentulous ridges to approximate an actual dehiscence defect as closely as possible, The standardized dehiscence defects were created 3 mm in width and 4 mm in height by osteotomy. A total 24 implants were placed. e-PTFE, ateloco11agen and $Collatape^{(R)}$ were placed to cover the defects and the one defect served as a control, not covered any membrane. By random selection, three dogs were sacrificed at 2 weeks, 4weeks and 8 weeks after fixation with 3% glutaraldehyde. A week before sacrificing, 8-week dog was infused intravenously with oxy-tetracycline 30mg/kg. The left mandibular blocks were used for full decalcified histologic preparation and the right mandibular blocks were selected for undeca1cified preparation, At 2 weeks, the regenerated bone of e-PTFE and atelocollagen groups appeared to be more dense than other groups and the percentage of bone defect fill was highest for e-PTFE and follwed by ateloco1lagen group. However, the $Collatape^{(R)}$ and control groups showed a little new bone formation. $Collatape^{(R)}$ was almost degraded within 2 weeks. At 4 weeks, the regenerated new bone were much greater and denser than at 2 weeks for e-PTFE and ateloco11agen group. Although a part of atelocollagen bagan to be degraded at the margin and surrounded by foreign body giant cells related to foreign body reaction, it was generally intact and the regenerated new bone was shown much more than at 2 weeks. The amount of new bone in $Collatape^{(R)}$ and control groups at 4 weeks were similar to that of 2 weeks group. At 8 weeks, the regenerated bone was matured and observed along the implant fixture. Direct new bone formation and calcium deposits beneath the e-PTFE were observed. No further bone growth was seen in the $Collatape^{(R)}$ and control groups. In reflected fluoromicrcocopic observation, the osteogenic activity was pronounced between e-PTFE membrane and the old bone. High osteogenic activity was also observed in atelocol1agen group. This study suggested that the ateloco11agen as well as e-PTFE could be used for guided tissue regeneration on dehiscence defects adjacent to the dental implants. But the $Collatape^{(R)}$ was completely resorbed within 2 weeks and was not a suitable membrane for guided bone regeneration.

두 개의 간헐반응조, 막분리조, 탈기조로 구성된 생물학적 MBR고도처리 공정에 동일한 유입수량과 수질의 하수가 유입되는 경우 운전 온도 및 SRT (Sludge Retention Time)변화에 따른 질소제거 특성을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 파악하였다. SRT가 25일이고 운전온도가 $25^{\circ}C$인 경우 간헐반응조를 간헐폭기 시키는 경우에 운전온도 $13^{\circ}C$의 59%에서 31%로 질소제거효율이 급격히 떨어지는데, 이는 운전온도 $13^{\circ}C$에 비해서 간헐반응조의 RBO (Readily Biodegradable Organic) 농도가 낮아져서 발생한 현상으로 파악되었다. 운전온도 $25^{\circ}C$에서 SRT를 12.6일로 운전하는 경우 간헐반응조 RBO농도는 증가하고 질소제거 효율은 회복되었다. 간헐반응조를 갖는 MBR시스템에서 SRT와 운전온도가 간헐반응조 RBO농도에 미치는 영향은 좀더 깊게 연구되어야 한다.

The objective of this paper is to compare the applicability of assimilable organic carbon (AOC) or biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) for quantifying biodegradable organic material (BOM) and bio-stability in distribution systems for a variety of finished waters. The study the data is derived from was part of an AWWARF and Tampa Bay Water tailored collaboration project to determine the effect of blending different waters on distribution system water quality. Seven different finished waters were produced from surface, ground, or brackish water on site and fed 18 independent pilot distribution systems (PDSs), either as single finished water or as a blend of several finished waters. AOC and BDOC have often been used as indicators of bacterial regrowth potential in distribution systems. In this study, AOC was the more useful assay of the two for the BOM concentrations observed in the PDSs. BDOC did not distinguish BOM while AOC did at the low BOM levels from many of the advanced treatments (e.g. RO, $O^3/BAC$). AOC in contrast allowed much more meaningful calculations of the consumption or production of AOC as the blends passed through the PDSs even for very low BOM blends. In addition, meaningful trends corresponding to changes in heterophic plate count (HPC) were observed for AOC but not for BDOC. Moreover, AOC stability was associated with waters produced from advanced membrane treatment.

The recent trend of research and development on guided tissue regeneration focuses on the biodegradable membranes, which eliminate the need for subsequent surgical removal. They have demonstrated significant and equivalent clinical improvements to the ePTFE membranes. This study evaluate guided tissue regeneration wound healing in surgically induced intrabony periodontal defects following surgical treatment with a synthetic biodegradable membranes, made from a copolymer of glycolide and lactide, in 8 beagle dogs. After full thickeness flap reflection, exposed buccal bone of maxillary and mandibular canine and premolar was removed surgically mesiodistally and occlusoapically at $6mm{\times}6mm$ in size for preparation of periodontal defects. In experimental sites a customized barrier was formed and fitted to cover the defect. Flap was replaced slightly coronal to CEJ and sutured. Plaque control program was initiated and maintained until completion of the study. In 4, 8, 16 and 24 weeks after surgery, the animals were sacrificed and then undecalcified specimens were prepared for histologic evaluation. Histologic examination indicated significant periodontal regeneration characterized by new connective tissue attachment, cementum formation and bone formation. These membranes showed good biocompatibility throughout experiodontal period. The barriers had been completely resorbed with no apparent adverse effect on periodontal wound healing at 24 weeks. These results implicated that present synthetic biodegradable membrane facilitated guided tissue regeneration in periodontal defect.

Purpose: Various kinds of biodegradable membranes are currently used in dental clinics. And the frequency and the necessity of their usage are increasing due to their numerous advantages. Therefore it is important to understand the difference of various membranes and histological reaction against implanted membranes. Materials and Methods: Biodegradable membranes of $Biogide^{(R)}$, $Resolute^{(R)}$, and $Tutodent^{(R)}$ were cut into small pieces by $1.0{\times}0.5cm$. The membranes were implanted 1.5cm apart from each other under the epithelium on the skull of 18 Sprague Dawley rats. The animals were sacrificed at 3, 7, and 14 days after surgical procedure. The specimens were examined by histological analysis. Results: 1. Early period after implantation of the membranes showed connective tissues surrounding membranes and there were a few inflammatory cells present. 2. In $Biogide^{(R)}$ and $Tutodent^{(R)}$ specimens, inflammatory cells and surrounding tissues were shown to infiltrate from outside with slight density difference inside. In $Resolute^{(R)}$ specimens, membranes were fragmented. Inflammatory cells and connective tissues were also observed inside. 3. In $Resolute^{(R)}$ specimen, giant cells were present which implicates that foreign body reaction has occurred. 4. $Biogide^{(R)}$ had lower integrity than other membranes and is not enough to be used alone in defect area. However, $Resolute^{(R)}$ had superior firmness than others. $Tutodent^{(R)}$ had middle level of integrity. Conclusion: This experimental model enabled to observe early inflammatory reactions and morphological changes of materials and can be used to develop and evaluate the efficacy of biodegradable membranes. Duplication of standardized human oral environment will be required in future experiments.
