Abstract:
The propose of this study was to evaluate the difference of cellular activity dependent on intermittent compressive force by determining the alkaline phosphatase activity. Alkaline phosphatase activity was measured on control and experimental groups every 24, 48, 72hours. Experimental groups consisted of continous and intermittent compressive group which were compressed by 300g/cm2 of diaphram pump. The intermittent compressive group was connected by timer which was worked on 10 minutes an off 10 minutes. The results were as follows; 1. The alkaline phosphatase activity between control and experimental groups showed not significant difference at compressed 24 hours. 2. The alkaline phosphatase activity of experimental groups were more increased than control group at compressed 48 hours. 3. The alkaline phosphatase activity of intermittent compressive group showed significant increased to control group. Whereby continuous compressive group showed not significant difference to control at 72 hours. 4. The alkaline phosphatase activity of intermittent compressive group were stringly increased than continuous compressive groups. 5. Between experimental groups and control group no other morphologic changes were detected by microscopic findings.
