Graft transmission and cytopathological studies of a severe pear disease, pear black necrotic leafspot（PBNLS), were carried out to determine the causal agent of the disease. No evidence was found that a fungal or bacterial pathogen could be the causal agent of the disease. Attempts to transmit the agent by sap-inoculation to other plants including herbaceous hosts failed. How-ever, the pathogen was readily graft-transmitted from symptomatic diseased pears to healthy pears. Graft transmission of the pathogen was also demonstrated by using an indicator plant, PS-95, developed in the laboratory through various grafting methods. Ultrastructural study of the disease revealed the consistent presence of flexuous rod-shaped virus-like particles (VLP) in the symptomatic leaves of both Niitaka cultivar and indicator pear, PS-95. The particles, approximately 12 nm in diameter with undetermined length, occurred in the cytoplasm of mesophyll parenchyma cells. Cells with VLPs also contained fibril-containing vesicles, which are common in cells infected with plant viruses with ssRNA genome. The vesicles were formed at the tonoplast. Based on the symptomatology, the presence of fibril-containing vesicles, and graft-transmissibility, it is believed that the VLPs that occurred on symptomatic leaves of black necrotic leafspot of pear are viral in nature, possibly those of a capillovirus.

This report described a simple, inexpensive, faster, and effective graft inoculation method for the artificial transmission of Mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV). Success of grafting and disease transmission was 100％ in this method. Screening of mungbean germplasm using this method will prevent the chance of escape infection, probably as a consequence of non-preference mechanism and loss of vector infectivity. The grafting method described here is applicable to both screenhouse and field trials.

탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 뛰어난 전기적, 물리적인 특성으로 인해 차세대 소재로서 관심을 끌어 왔다. 그러나 탄소나노튜브들 사이에는 본질적으로 강한 소수성 상호작용이 내재하여 불규칙한 결합체를 생성하기 때문에 다양한 분야로의 응용이 어려웠다. 본 연구에서는 양친성 가지형 공중합체, poly(vinyl chloride)-graft-poly(oxyethylene methacrylate), PVC-g-POEM를 합성하였고 극성 용매에서 단일벽 탄소나노튜브를 분산시킬 수 있는 용이한 방법을 제시하였다. PVC-g-POEM는 원자전달 라디칼중합(ATRP)으로 중합되었고 gel permeation chromatography(GPC)와 $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy를 통해 성공적인 합성되었음을 확인하였다. 단일벽 탄소나노튜브는 분산제인 PVC-g-POEM와의 친화력으로 인해 극성 용매 dimethylsiloxane(DMSO)에서 균일하게 분산되었으며 transmission electron microscopy(TEM) 분석으로 단일벽 탄소나노튜브와 PVC-g-POEM의 상호작용으로 생성된 나노복합체의 분산 형태를 관찰하였다. 또한 용매증발 과정을 거쳐 우수한 균질성을 보이는 free-standing 나노복합체 막을 제조하였다.

Nature of graft transmissibility of pear abnormal leaf spot disease was examined by various grafting methods in the greenhouse and field. When the diseased and symptomless twigs were collected in winter and grafted in the next spring to the seed-originated healthy root stock, the abnormal leaf spot was developed only in the case of the diseased twigs. Double grafting on a seed-originated healthy root stock, where the diseased and the symptomless twigs were used as 1st and 2nd scions, respectively, developed abnormal leaf spot lesions without exception on the 2nd scions. Tongue-graft with the diseased and the symptomless trees also incited abnormal leaf spots on the both trees. Abnormal leaf spots of were also developed on HN-39, an indicator pear tree, used as a 2nd scion in a double graft test, where the diseased twig and a seed-originated healthy tree were used as the 1st scion and the root stock, respectively. When the diseased twig was top-grafted to the healthy root stock, lesion development of abnormal spot was limited to the grafted twig itself in the 1st year, but expanded to the main branches in the 2nd year, and spread over the whole tree in the 3rd year. This result indicates that the causal agent of abnormal leaf spot disease is transmitted by graft.

Introduction: Auto-tooth bone graft material consists of 55% inorganic hydroxyapatite (HA) and 45% organic substances. Inorganic HA possesses properties of bone in terms of the combining and dissociating of calcium and phosphate. The organic substances include bone morphogenetic protein and proteins which have osteoinduction capacity, as well as the type I collagen identical to that found in alveolar bone. Auto-tooth bone graft material is useful as it supports excellent bone regeneration capacity and minimizes the possibility of foreign body reaction,genetic diseases and disease transmission. Materials and Methods: Implant placement combined with osteoinductive regeneration,preservation of extraction socket, maxillary sinus augmentation, and ridge augmentation using block type,powder type, and block+powder type autobone graft materialwere performed for 250 patients with alveolar bone defect and who visited the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, College of Dentistry, Dankook University from September 2009 to August 2011. Results: Clinical assessment: Among the 250 patients of auto-tooth bone graft, clinical assessment was performed for 133 cases of implant placement. The average initial stabilization of placed implants was 74 implant stability quotient (ISQ). Radiological assessment: The average loss of crestal bone in the mandible as measured 6 months on the average after the application of prosthesis load was 0.29 mm, ranging from 0 mm to 3.0 mm. Histological assessment: In the histological assessment, formation of new bone, densified lamellated bone, trabecular bones, osteoblast, and planting fixtures were investigated. Conclusion: Based on these results, we concluded that auto-tooth bone graft material should be researched further as a good bone graft material with osteoconduction and osteoinduction capacities to replace autogenous bone, which has many limitations.

The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of $Biocoral^R$ graft and bioglass 45S5 graft in combination with ePTFE membrane in periodontal osseous defects for new bone formation. Nine healthy dogs were used. Under general anesthesia, 3-wall defects were created on the mesial and distal surfaces of the maxillary right canines, the mesials of the maxillary right second premolars, the distals of the mandibular right canines and the mesials of the mandibular right third premolars. To induce periodontitis, a silicone rubber, $Provil^R$ light body, was injected under pressure into the defects. Ninety days later, $Provil^R$was removed and followed by thorough root planing. The followings were then applied in the mesial and distal defects of the maxillary right canines, the mesials of the maxillary right second premolars, the distals of the mandibular right canines and the mesials of the mandibular right third premolars by random selections : 1) ePTFE membrane only application, 2) $Biocoral^R$ graft, 3) $Biocoral^R$ graft and ePTFE membrane application, 4)Bioglass 45S5 graft, 5) Bioglass 45S5 graft and ePTFE membrane application. The membranes were removed 1 month later. The dogs were sacrified at 1, 2 and 3 months following the graft, and block sections were made, demineralized, embedded, stained and examined by light microscope and transmission electron microscope. On the sections from teeth treated with ePTFE membrane only, the defect demonstrated extensive connnective tissue and alveolar bone regeneration. The $Biocoral^R$ graft group demonstrated extensive bone regeneration compared with ePTFE membrane only group. In the $Biocoral^R$ graft plus ePTFE membrane group, regeneration of new alveolus and crest occurred within the defect. As the experimental period lengthened, bone regeneration was increased and bone bridge was formed among the graft particles. The but bioglass 45S5 graft group demonstrated extensive bone regeneration but the amount of new bone was less than that of the $Biocoral^R$ graft group. For the bioglass 45S5 graft plus ePTFE membrane group, the amount of new bone was also increased. As the experimental period lengthened, bone regeneration was increased. Multinucleated giant cells, fibroblasts and macrophages were observed. As the bone formation was increased, the number of such cells was decreased. In conclusion, the $Biocoral^R$ was found better than the bioglass 45S5 for new bone formation, and the use of ePTFE membrane alone or with $Biocoral^R$/bioglass 45S5 can be supported as potential methods of promoting bone formation.

This work has demonstrated that a novel amphiphilic poly(epichlorohydrine)-graft-polystyrene (PECH-g-PS) copolymer at 34:66 wt% was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene using PECH as a macroinitiator. The structure of the graft copolymer was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance ($^1H$ NMR) and FTIR spectroscopy, demonstrating that the "grafting from" method using ATRP was successful. The self-assembled graft copolymer was used as a template film for the in-situ growth of silver nanoparticles from $AgCF_3SO_3$ precursor under UV irradiation. The in situ formation of silver nanoparticles with 6-8 nm in average size in the solid state template film was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible spectroscopy and wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) also displayed the selective incorporation and the in situ formation of silver nanoparticles within the hydrophilic PECH domains, probably due to stronger interaction of the silvers with the ether oxygens of PECH backbone than that with hydrophobic PS side chains.

성공적인 전방십자인대 재건술을 얻기 위해 수술 전 계획, 수술수기, 수술 후 재활 등 여러 가지 요소가 관여한다. 그리고 좋은 결과를 얻기 위해서 수술 중 이식건의 선택, 고정, 처리 방법, 성숙, 본체골에 병합, 장력 등을 고려해야 한다. 이식건을 선택할 때 이식건의 강도, 이식건의 고정방법, 고정부위 치유, 공유 부위 이환, 이식건의 표면적 크기 등을 고려해야 한다. 이식건에는 자가건과 동종건의 두 가지가 있다. 자가 슬개건, 슬괵건, 대퇴사두건 등 사용할 수 있는 자가건은 여러 가지가 있으며 각각의 장·단점을 가지고 있다. 최근 국내에서 동종건의 사용빈도가 높아지고 있는데 공여부의 이환이 없고, 수술 시간이 짧고, 수술 후 통증이 적고, 재료가 다양한 장점이 있다. 하지만 동종건이 자가건보다 장기간 추적 결과가 더 좋다는 보고는 없다. 동종건은 골과의 합병이 오래 걸리고, 불완전하며, 인대 재형성이 늦고, 생역학적으로 자가건보다 강도가 낮으며, 면역반응의 위험성이 높고, 질병 전파의 가능성 등 원초적인 제한점을 가지고 있다. 그래서 장기간 결과에서 실패율이 높고 이식건의 성숙도가 자가건보다 좋지 않다. 그러므로 동종건은 자가건의 대용이 될 수 있지만 자가건을 사용할 수 없을 때, 여러 가지 인대 재건술이 필요한 경우를 제외하고 자가건을 사용하도록 하는 것이 좋다. 만약 적절한 크기와 굵기의 자가건을 얻을 수 있다면 자가건을 사용한 적절한 고정방법을 선택하고 수술 후 재활을 하면 동종건을 사용한 결과보다 우수한 결과를 얻을 것으로 생각된다.

A graft copolymer of poly(vinyl chloride)-g-poly(oxyethylene methacrylate) (PVC-g-POEM) was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and used as a structure-directing agent to prepare $Al@Fe_2O_3$ core-shell nanocomposites through a sol-gel process. The amphiphilic property of PVC-g-POEM allows for good dispersion of Al particles and leads to specific interaction with iron ethoxide, a precursor of $Fe_2O_3$. Secondary bonding interaction in the sol-gel composites was characterized by Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The well-organized morphology of $Al@Fe_2O_3$ core-shell nanocomposites was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to analyze the elemental composition and crystallization structure of the composites.

Cellulose-graft-poly (L-lactide) (cellulose-g-PLLA) was successfully prepared via ring-opening polymerization (ROP) by using 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) as an organic catalyst in an ionic liquid 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AmimCl). The structure and morphology of the polymer was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). From wide-angle X-ray powder diffraction (WAXD) and degradation test (by acid, alkaline, PBS and enzyme solution), changes in the crystalline structure as a result of degradation was also investigated. The results indicated that materials which have low degree of crystallinity showing higher degradability, however, in acid liquor, enzyme solution, alkaline liquor and PBS system, the degradation rate of the polymer decreased by the above sequence. Moreover, with the further increase of graft degree of this material, its degradation degree decreased.
