This study employs the variety of mixtures of XAD resin and active carbons as concentration base for solid phase extraction (SPE) which has been widely used to preconcentrate and purify phenol and chlorophenols in determination of environmental water samples. In this study, we employed variety of mixtures of copolymer based XAD-4 resin with active carbons. This cartridges shows advantages of both materials, such as better affinity to phenol by active carbon and better mechanical stabilities from XAD resin. The better enrichment factor, pretreatment time, recoveries and limit of detection (LOD) were achieved by the attempts to pack precolumns with both meterials for preconcentration.

During the course of studies on the production of glutathione from yeast, process development and optimization was carried out. The optimal pH for the extraction of glutathione was found to be 2.5 to 4.0 and the maximum yield for glutathione was obtained when the extraction temperature was 25 to $45^{\circ}C$. The cuprous salt of glutathione was recovered maximally at the range of 2 to 4g of cuprous oxide per 10 Kg of compressed yeast. Further purification was needed for the removal of impurities from glutathione. Cation exchange resin, anion exchange resin and Sephadex G-25 were employed for this purpose. 13 to 15 g of glutathione was obtained from 10 Kg of compressed yeast and the purity was above 99.3%.

Highly aromatic (HA) oils are common processing aids used in tire tread compounds. However, they often bleed and evaporate from the vulcanizates during tire use. Thus, the mechanical and dynamical properties of the tire decrease. To overcome this problem, we investigated nonfunctionalized liquid butadiene rubber (LBR-305, Kuraray) and center-functionalized liquid butadiene rubber (C-LqBR), polymerized by anionic polymerization. In addition to the liquid butadiene rubbers, p-tert-octylphenol (P-Resin) and C5 hydrocarbon (H-Resin) tackifier resins, which can induce entanglement of rubber compounds, were researched as a processing aid to solve the bleeding problem. Liquid butadiene rubbers have significantly reduced extraction loss by crosslinking with the main rubber chain. They have also increased the abrasion resistance and showed similar or better mechanical and dynamical properties against HA oils. However, resin compounds did not show differences in extraction loss compared to HA oil compounds; instead, they showed increased wet traction.

An accurate and rapid analytical technique of uranium isotopes in highly contaminated soil samples was developed and validated by application to the IAEA-Reference samples. For overcoming the demerits of the TBP extraction method, sample materials were decomposited with $HNO_3$ and HF, and uranium isotopes were purified by an anion exchange resin and a TRU Spec resin. With the extraction chromatography method, the hindrance elements were completely removed from the uranium fraction. The chemical yields with the extraction chromatography method were more 10% higher than those with the TBP extraction method. The concentrations of uranium isotopes in soil samples using the extraction chromatography method were consistent with the reference values reported by the IAEA.

This clinical report describes hemisection and endodontic treatment of first molar tooth and mandible fracture repair in a dog. A 10 years old spayed female shih-tzu was diagnosed as left mandibular fracture by oral examination and dental radiography. First, partial odontectomy of mesial root of mandibular first molar placed in fracture line was performed, and then endodontic treatment of distal root and bone graft in extraction site was performed. Thereafter the fracture region was fixed with interdental wiring and acryl resin splint. Mandibular fracture site was healed without any complications, observed for 19 weeks follow-up period. Upon this result, this case is proving that fractured mandible can be treated successfully with hemisection followed by bone graft, interdental wiring and acryl resin splint to preserve the remaining tooth for mastication rather than tooth extraction.

For the analysis of ⁹⁰Sr, which is a pure beta emitter, radiochemical separation from the main interfering elements such as Ca, Ba and Ra is required due to their similarity in chemical behavior to strontium. This study describes a radioanalytical procedure using extraction chromatography for separating Sr from interfering elements. The maximum capacity of the resin for Sr was approximately 6 mg per 1.5 mL of bed volume (BV). The recovery of Sr on the resin 1.5 mL (BV) was quantitative for the calcium level of 200 mg at the flow rate of 1 mL min^-1. However the chemical yield declined by increasing the flow rate by up to 5 mL min^-1 even at the calcium level of 200 mg. When using the same BV of Sr resin, the performance of the resin was enhanced as the cross-sectional area of the Sr resin column is small.

In treatment of dentigerous cyst, complete enucleation, histopathologic examination and postoperative care are important to prevent the potential complications (mural ameloblastoma, squamous cell carcinoma). On the other hand, a maxillary impacted supernumerary anterior tooth are removed surgically, owing to the possibility of the cyst formation in future. After the cyst enucleation and extraction of the involved tooth, the wound area sutured and removable resin plate is then applied. In this operation, the postoperative bleeding and infection is likely to occur owing to postoperative accumulation of hematoma & seroma, psychologic stress and other contaminated factor. So, the authors established the immediate rubber & iodoform gauze drainage into the sutured wound of cyst enucleation & tooth extraction for the prevention of postoperative bleeding and infection. The removable resin splint are not used because of the poor cooperation and economic factor. The results were more favorable without the postoperative bleeding & wound infection in a cerebral palsy patient.

Orthodontic treatment with premolar extraction is usually performed to correct bialveolar protrusion. These methods require the use of stiff rectangular working archwire which requires lengthy alignment and leveling before insertion. In this case report, interproximal reproximation was performed instead of extraction. To establish clearance between the archwire and resin domes fixing the archwire, an archwire was inserted into a water-soluble tube before fabricating resin domes. This tube is solved away by the saliva. During fabrication of resin domes, the archwire was deflected intentionally reflecting the displacement of teeth from their ideal position. This can be called as deflection-based bonding (DBB) technique. DBB is different from conventional method of positioning the brackets on its ideal position and then inserting an archwire to align the brackets. Because the orthodontic force of the archwire comes from its deflection from passive configuration, deflecting an archwire as needed can move the teeth more predictably than just bonding brackets on its ideal position. Also, areas with good alignment before orthodontic treatment can be maintained simply by not deflecting the archwire during bonding in these areas. After initial alignment, interproximal reproximation was performed to create 4.8 mm space in the maxillary arch and 4.2 mm space in the mandibular arch. These spaces were closed using orthodontic mini-implant anchorage thus retracting the maxillary incisors 4 mm posteriorly accompanied with 0.7 mm and 0.3 mm distal movement of right and left molars. By using interproximal reproximation and water-soluble tube with DBB, mild bialveolar protrusion was successfully treated without extraction.

The optimum condition for the extraction and purification processes of phytic acid from defatted rice bran was examined. The phytic acid was efficiently extracted when the defatted rice bran was treated with 10 volumes of 0.5% HCl for 1 hr. For the neutralization of acid-treated extract, 0.5% NaOH was the most acceptable. To purify phytic acid, Diaion HP20 resin was used to remove impurities from the extract. The flow-through was then loaded onto ion exchange columns packed with various resins and among them, Amberlite IRA-416 resin showed highest recovery yield. When the phytic acid was absorbed onto Amberlite IRA-416 resin and then eluted with 0.5% NaOH, 89% of applied phytic acid was eluted. Most proteins were removed from the purified phytic acid and total protein content of the phytic acid was 0.14%(w/w).

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro cytotoxicity of thermoplastic denture base resins and to identify the possible adverse effects of these resins on oral keratinocytes in response to hot water/ food intake. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Six dental thermoplastic resin materials were evaluated: three polyamide materials (Smile tone, ST; Valplast, VP; and Luciton FRS, LF), two acrylic materials (Acrytone, AT; and Acryshot, AS), and one polypropylene resin material (Unigum, UG). One heat-polymerized acrylic resin (Vertex RS, RS) was chosen for comparison. After obtaining extracts from specimens of the denture resin materials (${\phi}=10$ mm and d=2 mm) under different extraction conditions ($37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours, $70^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours, and $121^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour), the extracts (50%) or serial dilutions (25%, 12.5%, and 6.25%) in distilled water were co-cultured for 24 hours with immortalized human oral keratinocytes (IHOKs) or mouse fibroblasts (L929s) for the cytotoxicity assay described in ISO 10993. RESULTS. Greater than 70% viability was detected under all test conditions. Significantly lower IHOK and L929 viability was detected in the 50% extract from the VP ($70^{\circ}C$) and AT ($121^{\circ}C$) samples (P<.05), but only L929 showed reduced viability in the 50% and 25% extract from LF ($37^{\circ}C$) (P<.05). CONCLUSION. Extracts obtained from six materials under different extraction conditions ($37^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$, and $121^{\circ}C$) did not exhibit severe cytotoxicity (less than 70% viability), although their potential risk to oral mucosa at high temperatures should not be ignored.
