Objective: To find out the infinity optical thickness of SY-1 silicone elastomers when color difference(△E) is equal to 1.5 . Methods: Silicone elastomer samples with thickness from 0.5 mm to 10 mm of SY-1 silicone elastomer were measured by CIE-1976-L *a *b * relative to CIE source against a white and a black background by using Minolta colorimeter . Color difference was calculated as △E=[(△L *) 2+( △a *) 2+(△b *) 2] 1/2 . The infinity optical thickness of SY-1 silicone elastomer when △E=1.5 was calculated by regression formulation. Result: When △E was equal to 1.5, the infinity optical thickness of SY-1 silicone elastomer was 7.60 mm. Conclusion: In order to get ideal effect the supports should be treated with colorant when the thickness of silicone elastomer covering the surface of supports in maxillofacial prostheses is thinner than 7.60 mm.

Objective To investigate the effects of inhaling isoflurane and enflurane on the spontaneous neural discharge of the neurones in rat hippocampus. Methods Whole cell patchclamp recording te chnique was used to observe the effects of isoflurane and enflurane on the spont aneous discharge rate of the neurons in the hippocampus on the brain slice of ne w-born SD rats. After decapitation, the whole brain of the rat was removed and put into artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) saturated with 1.36 g?L -1 O 2 and 0.098 g?L -1 CO 2 mixed gas at 4 ℃ . Brain was cut into 300~400 ? m thick slices containing the hippocampus. Whole cell patchc lamp recording technique was used to observe the effects of isoflurane with dif ferent concentrations on the spontaneous discharge rate of neurons in the hippoc ampus on the brain slices. Results Isoflurane and enfluran e could significantly inhibit the spontaneous neural discharge of neurons in the hippocampus in a dose-dependant manner. The effects of spontaneous neural disc harge of hippocampus inhibited by isoflurane (0.12 g?L -1 ~0.36 g?L -1 ) and enflurane (0.2 g?L -1 ~0.6 g?L -1 ) could be recove red following washing off with ACSF for 5 min. Conclusion T he spontaneous discharge rate of neurons in the hippocampus can be reversibly in hibited by isoflurane and enflurane. Hippocampus may be an important action site of anesthetics isoflurane and enflurane in the central nervous system.
