  • Angiogenesis is one of the essential processes that occur during wound healing. It is responsible for providing immunity as well as the regenerative cells, nutrition, and oxygen needed for the healing of the alveolar socket following tooth extraction. The inappropriate removal of formed blood clots causes the undesirable phenomenon of alveolar osteitis (AO) or dry socket. In this review, we aimed to investigate whether enhanced angiogenesis contributes to a more effective prevention of AO. The potential pro- or anti-angiogenic activity of different materials used for the treatment of AO were evaluated. An electronic search was performed in the PubMed, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases via OVID from January 2000 to September 2016 using the keywords mentioned in the PubMed and MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) terms regarding the role of angiogenesis in the prevention of AO. Our initial search identified 408 articles using the keywords indicated above, with 38 of them meeting the inclusion criteria set for this review. Due to the undeniable role of angiogenesis in the socket healing process, it is beneficial if strategies for preventing AO are directed toward more proangiogenic materials and modalities.

  • $MnO_2$ is used for the oxide electrode of electrochemical equipments because of its good electric conductivity and low oxygen overpotential. The effect of additives on the properties of $MnO_2$ has been investigated to enhance the electric conductivity and the stability in an acid solution. In this research, the effect of Ni addition on ${\beta}-MnO_2$ was studied by the theoretical quantum chemical method. The calculation was carried out by the discrete variation $X{\alpha}$ method, which is a sort of the first principle method and use Hatre-Fock-Slater approximation. The electron energy level, the density of state, the bond overlap population, the charge density distribution and the net ionic transfer between cations and anions were calculated and discussed. The used cluster model was $(Mn_{10}NiO_{44})^{-44}$.

  • The AlCrN films were grown by RF reactive sputtering method under the selected conditions. The Cr concentration was varied by the number of Cr pieces placed on the Al target. The sample quality has been studied by XRD, Auger spectroscopy, optical absorption and electrical resistant measurements. The XRD and Auger results show that the samples consist of a major phase with the $Al_{1-x}Cr_xN$ formula, which has a hexagonal structure, and a few percents at. of oxygen, which may form $Al_2O_3$. There exist the Cr clusters in the samples with high concentration of Cr. The optical absorption measurement provides the information about the band gap that relates strongly to the quality of samples. The quality of samples is also clearly reflected in electrical measurement, i.e., the temperature dependence of resistance exhibits a semiconductor characteristic only for the samples that have no Cr cluster. In these cases, the values of ionization energies $E_a$ can be derived from R(T) plots by using the function R(T) = Ro exp $(E_a/k_BT)$.

  • The environmental characteristics in shellfish farms were investigated in the western part of Jinhae Bay, 1996. During summer, anoxia and high nutrient concentrations were found in the bottom waters of shellfish farms. The concentrations of particulate organic species in seawaters were enriched, showing an average 57.44 uM for POC, an average 5.45 uM for PON, and an average 0.42uM for PP. The sediments environment in the farms was very polluted. The concentrations of COD and AVS were more than 20 mg/g.dry and 0.5 mg/g.dry, respectively. The total sedimentation rate was high as an average $7.81g/m^2/day$ with organic matter contents of $26\%$. Oxygen consumption rate was similar to polluted area as an average of $439mg/m^2/day$. Nutrient release rates were an average of $8.25mg/m^2/day$ for nitrogen and an average of $1.38mg/m^2/day$ for phosphorous. The cluster analysis through environmental data in summer indicated that DO, nutrient in the bottom water, and AVS in the sediment were important factors to characterize the polluted environmental site.

  • keV ion beam irradiatin for surface modification and thin film growth have been discussed. keV ion beam irradiation in reactive gas environment has been developed for improving wettability of polymer, and for enhancing adhesion to metal film, and adventages of the method have been reviewed. An epitaxial Cu film on Si(100) substrate has been grown by ionized cluster beam and changes of crystallinity and surface roughness have been discussed. Stoichiometric $SnO_2$ films on Si(100) and glass have been grown by a hybrid ion beam Deposition(2 metal ion sources+1 gas ion source), and nonstoichiometric $SnO_2$ films are controlled by various deposition conditions in the HIB. Surface modification for polymer by kev ion irradiation have been developed. Wetting angle of water to PC has been changed from 68 degree to 49 degree with $Ar^+$ irradiation and to 8 degree with $Ar^+$ irradiation and the oxygen environment. Change of surface phenomena in a keV ion beam and characteristics of the grown films are suggested.

  • Benthic sediment samples ranging from poorly aggregated sand to complex, stratified mats were collected from six hypersaline ponds from March and July 1995 in the British Virgin Islands. Assemblages were analyzed with respect to species composition and abundance within visibly distinct layers in each mat sample. In individual ponds there was no apparent association between changing depth and the development of the benthic mats. Some species were present in all samples (e.g. Oscillatoria sp.) while others were restricted to single sites (e.g. Johannesbaptistia pellucida). Primary species included Microcoleus chthonoplastes, Phormidium spp., Coccochloris stagnina, and purple sulfur bacteria. Quantitative analysis of community structure included cluster and principal component analysis. Samples from individual ponds were often clustered; however, this was subject to seasonal variation. Mats collected in March were generally thicker and contained more layers than those in July. Variation among sites was not explained by the measured variation in environmental factors such as average pond salinity, depth, and oxygen concentration (mg/L). This study provides a detailed analysis of mat communities in hypersaline ponds and compares them with similar mat communities from other areas.

  • The community structure of meiobenthos was studied in the sediment of Kongfjorden, Spitsbergen of Svalbard Island in the Arctic Sea. Samples of meiobenthos were collected in August, 2003. Meiobenthic organisms were collected by SCUBA and van veen grab or acryl sub-corers 34mm in internal diameter, and were taken from upper sediment to a depth of 3cm at each station. A total of 26 meiofaunal groups were found in the sediment of Spitsbergen in Svalbard Island. Nematodes were the most dominant faunal group. Sarcomastigophorans, benthic harpacticoids, and nauplius larvae of crustaceans, were also important components of the meiobenthic community of Kongsfjorden. All of these low faunal groups were comprised of more than 90% of total meiobenthos at every station. The total density of meiobenthos at each station was highest at station MeG 6 $(3,583{\pm}1,137inds./10cm^2)$, and lowest at station $MeG9(28{\pm}1inds./10cm^2)$. Meiobenthos in general showed the highest density in the upper 1cm layer. This may be associated with food and oxygen supply to subsurface. Harpacticoids showed extreme preference at the surface and little presence in layers deeper than 2cm. These animals may be less resistant to oxygen deficiency, and nauplius also showed the same trend. However, in St. MeG 8 and 9, meiobenthos were dense at depths of more than 0-1cm, at especially at depths of 2-3m because of relatively easy penetration of oxygen. Based on the results of cluster analysis, three meiobenthos assemblages were distinguished: one was in the outer and two were in the inner fjord. Station SCU 5 was grouped with the meiobenthos assemblage located in the outer fjord. The outer ford community was characterised by : 1) a relatively low mean number of meiobenthos taxa, 2) a relatively high density of harpacticods and nauplius. One of the inner ford communities (a group of four nation: MeG 2, 3, 8, 9) was in the proximity of the glaciers. Specifically, it was characterised by : 1) a low mean number of meiobenthos taxa, 2) a low density. The other inner ford community was characterised by both a high density and great mean number of meiofaunal taxa.

  • 1997년부터 2008년까지 12년 동안 가로림연안 수질환경의 특성과 장기변동 경향을 조사하였다. 3개 조사정점에서 수층(표층, 저층)별 및 계절별로 년 4회 수온, 염분, 부유물질, 화학적산소요구량, 용존산소, 영양염류, 클로로필 a에 대해 조사한 결과, 표층수와 저층수 간에 수온을 제외한 진조사항목에서 표 저층간의 차이가 없었다. 공간적 분포특성은 모든 조사항목에서 정점간 유의적인 차이가 없어 가로림만 중간부터 외측으로 원활한 해수교환이 이루어지고 있었다. 계절별로는 수소이온농도와 암모니아질소을 제외한 조사 항목에서는 유의성이 입증되었고, 정점별로 대체로 비슷한 변화폭을 나타내었다. 12년 동안 수질의 장기 변동은 네 그룹으로 구분되어 항목에 따라 부분적으로 차이가 있으나 전반적 장기 변동을 조사한 결과 근래에 들어 염분은 높아진 반면, 용존무기질소, 질산질소 및 화학적산소요구량 등이 감소하고 있어 담수의 유입이 거의 없는 대체로 양호한 수질상태를 유지하고 있으며 수산학적으로 매우 중요한 연안으로 앞으로 지속적인 보전이 요구된다.
