연구목적: 본 연구는 높은 심미성을 나타내지만 낮은 파절 강도로 인하여 구치부에서의 사용이 제한되고 있는 전부도재 고정성 국소의치의 파절강도를 증가시키기 위한 방법으로, 취성 재료인 도재에 인장강도가 높은 금속선을 삽입하고 물리적, 기계적 성질을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: lithium disilicate(ingot No.200 : IPS Empress 2, Ivoclar Vivadent, Lichtenstein)와 0.41 mm 직경의 Ni-Cr 금속선(Alfa Aesar, Johnson Matthey Company, USA)을 사용하여, 금속선의 수와 배열을 달리한 4개의 실험군 시편을 제작하였다. 모든 시편은 폭 4 mm, 두께 2 mm, 길이 15 mm의 직육면체로 제작하였다. 실험군 1, 2, 3은 각각 한 가닥, 두 가닥, 세 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 장축을 따라 배열하였으며, 실험군 4는 세 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 장축에, 다섯 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 횡축에 배열하였다. 대조군에는 금속선을 삽입하지 않았으며, 대조군 및 각각의 실험군의 시편은 각 군당 12개로 하였다. 결과: 만능 시험기(Z020, Zwick, Germany)를 이용하여 파절시점까지 하중을 가한 후, 굴곡계수, 굴곡강도, 파절시점까지의 변형률, 파괴인성을 측정하였다. 파절된 시편의 도재와 금속선의 계면을 횡절단 및 연마하여 주사전자현미경(JSM-6360, JEOL, Japan)으로 100배상에서 관찰하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 도재에 금속선을 삽입한 결과, 금속선을 삽입하지 않은 대조군에 비해 통계적 유의성 있는 굴곡계수 및 굴곡강도의 변화는 관찰할 수 없었으나, 변형률의 유의성 있는 증가(P<.001)를 관찰할 수 있었다. 2. 금속선을 삽입한 시편의 파절 양상은 하중점 부위에서 도재만 파절되는 양상을 나타내었다. 3. 금속선을 삽입한 도재의 파절된 시편을 횡절단 및 종절단하여 100 배상에서 주사전자현미경으로 촬영한 결과, 하중 시 도재의 파절 원인이 될 수 있는 도재 내부의 기포는 관찰되지 않았으며, 도재와 금속선 사이의 gap도 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 금속선 삽입의 결과, 취성 재료인 도재의 통계적으로 유의성 있는 변형률의 증가를 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 구치부에서 금속선 강화 도재의 사용을 위해서는 굴곡계수 및 굴곡강도의 향상이 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 추가적 연구가 필요하다.

A variety of influenza A viruses from animal hosts are continuously prevalent throughout the world which cause human epidemics resulting millions of human infections and enormous industrial and economic damages. Thus, early diagnosis of such pathogen is of paramount importance for biomedical examination and public healthcare screening. To approach this issue, here we propose a fully integrated Rotary genetic analysis system, called Rotary Genetic Analyzer, for on-site detection of influenza A viruses with high speed. The Rotary Genetic Analyzer is made up of four parts including a disposable microchip, a servo motor for precise and high rate spinning of the chip, thermal blocks for temperature control, and a miniaturized optical fluorescence detector as shown Fig. 1. A thermal block made from duralumin is integrated with a film heater at the bottom and a resistance temperature detector (RTD) in the middle. For the efficient performance of RT-PCR, three thermal blocks are placed on the Rotary stage and the temperature of each block is corresponded to the thermal cycling, namely $95^{\circ}C$ (denature), $58^{\circ}C$ (annealing), and $72^{\circ}C$ (extension). Rotary RT-PCR was performed to amplify the target gene which was monitored by an optical fluorescent detector above the extension block. A disposable microdevice (10 cm diameter) consists of a solid-phase extraction based sample pretreatment unit, bead chamber, and 4 ${\mu}L$ of the PCR chamber as shown Fig. 2. The microchip is fabricated using a patterned polycarbonate (PC) sheet with 1 mm thickness and a PC film with 130 ${\mu}m$ thickness, which layers are thermally bonded at $138^{\circ}C$ using acetone vapour. Silicatreated microglass beads with 150~212 ${\mu}L$ diameter are introduced into the sample pretreatment chambers and held in place by weir structure for construction of solid-phase extraction system. Fig. 3 shows strobed images of sequential loading of three samples. Three samples were loaded into the reservoir simultaneously (Fig. 3A), then the influenza A H3N2 viral RNA sample was loaded at 5000 RPM for 10 sec (Fig. 3B). Washing buffer was followed at 5000 RPM for 5 min (Fig. 3C), and angular frequency was decreased to 100 RPM for siphon priming of PCR cocktail to the channel as shown in Figure 3D. Finally the PCR cocktail was loaded to the bead chamber at 2000 RPM for 10 sec, and then RPM was increased up to 5000 RPM for 1 min to obtain the as much as PCR cocktail containing the RNA template (Fig. 3E). In this system, the wastes from RNA samples and washing buffer were transported to the waste chamber, which is fully filled to the chamber with precise optimization. Then, the PCR cocktail was able to transport to the PCR chamber. Fig. 3F shows the final image of the sample pretreatment. PCR cocktail containing RNA template is successfully isolated from waste. To detect the influenza A H3N2 virus, the purified RNA with PCR cocktail in the PCR chamber was amplified by using performed the RNA capture on the proposed microdevice. The fluorescence images were described in Figure 4A at the 0, 40 cycles. The fluorescence signal (40 cycle) was drastically increased confirming the influenza A H3N2 virus. The real-time profiles were successfully obtained using the optical fluorescence detector as shown in Figure 4B. The Rotary PCR and off-chip PCR were compared with same amount of influenza A H3N2 virus. The Ct value of Rotary PCR was smaller than the off-chip PCR without contamination. The whole process of the sample pretreatment and RT-PCR could be accomplished in 30 min on the fully integrated Rotary Genetic Analyzer system. We have demonstrated a fully integrated and portable Rotary Genetic Analyzer for detection of the gene expression of influenza A virus, which has 'Sample-in-answer-out' capability including sample pretreatment, rotary amplification, and optical detection. Target gene amplification was real-time monitored using the integrated Rotary Genetic Analyzer system.
