Hydrogels composed of glycidyl methacrylate dextran (GMD) and poly(acrylic acid, PM) were prepared by UV irradiation method for colon-specific drug delivery. GMD was synthesized by coupling of glycidyl methacrylate to dextran in the presence of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine. GMD was photo-polymerized by ammonium peroxydisulfate as initiating system in phosphate­buffered solution (0.1 M, pH 7.4). And then, acrylic acid monomer was added and subsequently heat-polymerized by 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator. The hydrogels exhibited high swelling ratio (about 20) at $37^{\circ}C$, and showed a pH-dependent swelling behavior. In addition, the swelling ratio of the hydrogel was remarkably enhanced to about 45 times in the presence of dextranase at pH 7.4. The swelling-deswelling behavior proceeded reversibly for the GMD/PM hydrogels between pH 2 and pH 7.4. Release of 5-aminosalicylic acid from the GMD/PAA hydrogels was evaluated in simulated gastrointestinal pH fluids in the absence or presence of dextranase. We concluded that the hydrogels prepared could be used as a dual-sensitive drug carrier for sequential release in gastrointestinal tract.

Thermal cross-linking method of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) using poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) was carried out on PVA/PAA hydrogels. The level of gelation was measured in the PVA/PAA hydrogels with various PAA contents. The swelling behavior at various pHs showed that the swelling kinetics and water contents of the PVA/PAA hydrogels reached equilibrium after 30 h, and the time to reach the equilibrium state decreased with increasing PAA content in the hydrogel. The water content increased with increasing pH of the buffer solution. The permeation and release of the drug were tested using indomethacin as a model drug. The permeated and released amounts of the drug increased with decreasing the PAA content because of the low free volume in the hydrogel due to the higher cross-linking density. The kinetic profile of drug release at various pHs showed that all samples reached the equilibrium state within the 5 h.

생분해성인 Curdlan을 이용하여 pH 의존성 약물 전달계 개발을 위한 실험을 수행한 결과, pH 1,4에서 약물 방출 보다 pH 7.4에서 약물 방출이 10배 이상 증가하였다. 이러한 결과로 curdlan acetate microsphere는 pH 의존성 약물 전달계로 유용하다고 판단된다.

Functionally graded polyurethane elastomers PUEs/grad. Poly(dimethylammoninum ethylacrylate bromide)(PDMAEA) were prepared by the method of electrophoresis. Results of elemental analysis showed that concentration of PDMAEA had gradient across the thickness(2mm) of the base PUEs. The modified PUEs(PUEs/grad. PDMAEA) containing high concentration of PDMAEA displayed low degree of swelling in benzene which was poor solvent for PDMAEA, and high degree of swelling in water which was good solvent. For the each layer of modified PUEs, glass transition temperature, dynamic storage modulus were stooled by DSC, Rheovibron DDV-IIC dynamic viscoelastomer. The chemomechanical properties of modified PUEs was explored by the electric-stimulus.

We constructed Seal type waterproofing with adhesive and swelling properties in the field of construction work as yet. But we have many problems of seal type waterproofing with adhesive and swelling properties for construction. Because it has high viscosity, so wokers are too adhered for the work. So, we developed and applied about the high temperature and spray equipments of piston type better than before. We able to be expect that cost reduction and increase construction ability by high temperature and spray equipments of piston type.

The residual stress changes on thermo-mechanical loading in the interface region of the Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC)/Thermally Grown Oxide (TGO)/Bond Coat (BC) were calculated on the TBC-coated superalloys using a Finite Element Method (FEM). It was found that the residual stress of the interface boundary was dependent upon mainly the oxide formation and the swelling rate of the oxide by creep relaxation. During an oxide swelling, the relaxation of residual stress which is due to creep deformation increased the TBC's life. In the case of the fine grain size of TGO scale, the TBC stresses piled up by oxide swelling could be relaxed by diffusional creep effect of TGO.

Mucoadhesive microspheres were prepared by interpolymer complexation of chitosan with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and solvent evaporation method to increase gastric residence time. The chitosan-PAA complex formation was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and swelling study. The DSC thermogram of chitosan-PAA microspheres showed two exothermic peaks for the decomposition of chitosan and PAA. The swelling ratio of the chitosan-PAA microspheres was dependent on the pH of the medium. The swelling ratio was higher at pH 2.0 than at neutral pH. The results indicated that the microspheres were formed by electrostatic interaction between the carboxyl groups of PAA and the amine groups of chitosan. The effect of various process parameters on the formation and morphology of microspheres was investigated. The best microspheres were obtained when 1.5% of the high molecular weight chitosan and 0.3% of PAA were used as an internal phase. The optimum internal phase volume was 7%. The com oil was used as the external phase of emulsion, and span 80 was used as the surfactant. The prepared microspheres had spherical shape.

In the present case study, we reported a female patient with sialodochitis fibrinosa in which a conservative ultrasound (US)-guided irrigation method was used to relieve her symptoms. A 30-year-old female patient visited Kyung Hee University Dental Hospital with chief complaints of persistent swelling and discomfort in the left facial area. Her primary symptom was facial swelling that was accompanied by neuropathological symptoms, such as itching, tingling, and warmth that usually continued for 3 to 4 days. During clinical examination of orofacial area, mild swelling and fever were noted in the left face including parotid region, and mild induration could be felt at the corresponding site; sialadenitis of the left parotid gland was tentatively diagnosed. Herein, we performed intraductal irrigation of the left parotid gland in three times per month and prescribed some medication. Thus, her signs and symptoms have been improved, and she did not experience a recurrence for 12-month follow-up to date. This study can support the usefulness of the US-guided irrigation method to treat the sialodochitis fibrinosa without remarkable side effects.

양말단에 아미노기가 결합된 일련의 bisamino-PEG($Jeffamine^{(R)}ED$)를 함유한 키토산 비드들을 알칼리 용액을 사용한 capillary extrusion method에 의해 제조하였다. 제조된 각각의 비드들에 대한 swelling kinetics를 조사한 결과, 키토산비드 내부에 PEG 사슬이 길어질수록 팽윤이 늦게 진행되었다. 또한 키토산 비드에 함유된 bisamino-PEG들의 방출현상을 정량적으로 알아 보기 위해 양말단의 1차 아민기에 fluorescamine을 결합시킨 후, UV spectra로 방출과정을 추적하였다. 실험결과 키토산 비드 내부에 있는 PEG 사슬이 길수록 방출시간은 $Jeffamine^{(R)}ED$-600 < $Jeffamine^{(R)}ED$-900 < $Jeffamine^{(R)}ED$-2001 순으로 지연되는 경향을 나타내었다. 이는 PEG 사슬이 길어질수록 키토산과의 수소결합에 의한 상호작용이 강화되고 그 결과 방출기간이 지연된 것으로 사료된다.

생분해성인 curdlan을 아세틸화하여 소수성 약물인 IND의 치료효과를 증진시킬 수 있는 약물전달시스템 개발을 위한 실험을 수행한 결과, IND가 포함된 CAMs를 제조할 수 있었고, IND의 loading efficiency는 $58.44\%$였다. 약물 방출 거동에 영향을 미치는 요인 중 제조한 CAMs의 swelling 특성은 처음 1시간 동안 pH 1.4에서는 아무런 변화가 없었고 PH 7.4에서는 $30\%$의 swelling을 보였고 pH 1.4에서보다 pH 7.4에서의 swelling이 약 3배 높았다. 또한 CAMs로부터 IND의 방출은 pH 1.4에서보다 pH 7.4에서 약 15배 이상 증가하였다. 이러한 결과로 CAMs는 IND의 약물전달시스템으로 유용할 것이며 특히 pH에 의존하는 약물방출 경향을 보였다.
