The characteristic parameters of high density plasma source (Helical Resonator) have been measured with Langmuir probe to get the plasma density electron temperature, ion current density, etc. Optical emission spectra of Si and SiCl have been analyzed in $Cl_2$$/poly-Si system to elucidate etching mechanism. In this system, the main reaction to remove silicon atoms on the surface is proceeding mostly through chemical reaction, not pure physical reaction. The emission intensity of SiCl (chemical etching product) increases much faster than Si (pure physical etching product) with increasing the concentration of impurities (P). This is due to the electron transfer from substrate to the surface via Si-Cl bond. As a result, Si-Cl bond becomes more ionic and mobile, therefore the Cl-containing etchant forms $SiCl_x$ with surface more easily. Consequently, for the removal of Si atom from poly silicon surface, the chemical etching is more favorable than physical etching with increasing P concentrations.

Growth rate and osmolyte accumulation of L. monocytogenes were measured at the varying concentrations of NaCl. L. monocytogenes accumulated glycine betaine and glutamate intracellularly when grown under osmotic stress by NaCl, and the amounts of them increased as the concentration of NaCl was increased. They were 685 and 345 nmol/mg protein, respectively, when grown in the BHI supplemented with 4% NaCl. In order to inhibit L. monocytogenes effectively, both NaCl and Morus alba L. leaf extract were supplemented in TSB, and antibacterial effect of those supplements on L. monocytogenes was tested. Growth of L. monocytogenes grown in TSB supplemented with 2% NaCl and 100 ppm M. alba leaf extract decreased by 10 times in CFU/ml unit comparing to the growth of control. When grown in TSB, supplemented with 2% NaCl plus 500 ppm M. alba leaf extract and 2% NaCl plus 1,000 ppm M. alba leaf extract, growth of L. monocytogenes decreased by $10^5\;and\;10^8$ times in CFU/ml unit, respectively.

The charge transfer compounds of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) with the general formula of (TTF)mMCln, (M=Au, Pt, Ir, Os) were prepared by the direct reaction using excess HAuCl4·3H2O, H2PtCl6·xH2O, H2IrCl6·xH2O and H2OsCl6 respectively. The powdered electrical conductivities (σrt) at room temperature are given as follows; (TTF)3AuCl2, 4.53×10-3; (TTF)3.5AuCl2, 6.37×10-3; (TTF)3PtCl4, 5.51×10-4; (TTF)2IrCl4, 2.40×10-5; (TTF)OsCl4·1/2C2H5OH, 4.46×10-7 Scm-1. Magnetic susceptibility, electronic (UV-Vis.), vibrational (IR) and EPR spectroscopic evidences indicate that there is incomplete charge transfer from the TTF donor to gold, platinum, and iridium respectively, and that there is essentially complete charge transfer to osmium, thereby resulting a relatively low electrical conductivity in osmium compound. The EPR and magnetic susceptibility data reflect that the metals are in diamagnetic Au(Ⅰ), Pt(Ⅱ), Ir(Ⅲ), and Os(Ⅱ) oxidation states, and the odd electrons are extensively delocalized over the TTF lattices in each compound.

다슬기의 분말(PSB)과 그 회화분(ASB)으로부터 체내 흡수력이 높은 젖산칼슘의 제조조건과 색상, 용해도 및 관능적 품질을 조사하였다. PSB로부터 제조한 젖산칼슘(PSB-CL)의 PSB 및 젖산 100 mL에 대한 수율은 젖산농도가 10%일 때는 300% 및 15 g, 20%일 때는 260% 및 20 g이었으며, ASB로 제조한 젖산칼슘(ASB-CL)의 ASB 및 젖산 100 mL에 대한 수율은 10% 젖산에서는 400% 및 60 g, 20% 젖산에서는 329% 및 66 g으로 원료량을 기준으로 하였을 때는 다같이 젖산농도의 증가에 따라 감소하였으나 젖산의 부피를 기준으로 하였을 때는 젖산농도의 증가에 따라 증가하였다. Dehydated PSB-CL 및 ASB-CL 제조의 적정온도와 시간은 10$0^{\circ}C$에서는 각각 4 및 5시간, 12$0^{\circ}C$에서는 3 및 4시간, 15$0^{\circ}C$에서는 1 및 2시간으로 ASB-LA의 경우가 짧았다. IR 및 H-NMR spectrum의 분석결과 PBS-LA와 ASB-LA의 구조는 Ca($CH_3$CHOH$CO_2$)$_2$임이 확인되었다. 무수 PSB-CL 및 ASB-CL의 칼슘함량은 각각 15.4%(w/w)와 17.3%(w/w)로 이론 값의 각각 84.2%와 94.5%를 나타내었으며, 미량의 Fe, Na, Mn Zn을 함유하였다. PBS-CL와 ASB-CL의 색상은 각각 연한 황색과 연녹색을 지닌 백색을 띠었다. pH 3~8로 조정한 증류수에서 PSB-CL과 ASB-CL의 평균 용해도는 각각 5.43 g/100 mL 및 6.11 g/100 mL로 standard CL의 4.74 g/mL에 비하여 높았다. 국간장을 제외한 대부분의 액체식품(3% 소금물, 소주, 진간장, 국간장, 포도주스 및 오렌지주스)에서의 용해도는 PSB-CL(3.14~5.03 g/100 mL)과 ASB-CL(4.69~6.05 g/100 mL)이 standard CL(2.94~5.84 g/100 mL)에 비하여 높았다. 관능검사 결과, ASB-CL은 신맛이 낮아 사용범위가 높은 것으로 평가되었으며 PSB-CL는 쓴맛은 높으나 떫은맛이 낮고 구수한 맛이 강하여 식품에의 응용이 기대된다.

A cDNA clone (GenBank accession no. CF924621) homologous to aluminum induced protein gene was isolated and characterized from Codonopsis lanceolata (ClAIP). The ClAIP is 906 nucleotides long and has an open reading frame of 711 bp with a deduced amino acid sequence of 236 residues. The ClAIP shows high homology to A. marina (84%), G. hirsutum(83%), V. radiata (83%), A. thaliana (80%), B. nap us (78%) and T. aestivum (68%). The deduced amino acid sequence of ClAIP also has homology to the N-terminal end of plant Asn synthetase. This region does not contain the active sites of the enzyme and the significance of this conservation is currently not clear. To investigate the expression of ClAIP against several heavy metal stresses, we treated the sliced tap root of C. lanceolata with various heavy metals. The expression of ClAIP was increased by 25 uM $Al_2$(SO$_3$)$_4$ in proportion to incubation time and also increased by 50 uM CdCl$_2$.

The object of this study was to investigate the characteristics of pectinesterase(PE), polygalacturonase(PG) and Peroxidase(POD) in Kimchi materials. The results were as follows : 1. The specific activities of PEs in Korean cabbage, Korean raddish, garlic and ginger were 200 unit/mg protein, 23.1 unit/mg protein, 0.8 unit/mg protein and 32 unit/mg protein, respectively. The optimum pHs of PEs in all materials were between 7 to 8. The concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ which showed the highest activities of PEs were $0.2{\sim}0.3M$ NaCl, 50 mM $CaCl_2$ in Korean cabbage and raddish, 0.05 M NaCl, 20 mM $CaCl_2$ in garlic and 0.2 M NaCl, 20 mM $CaCl_2$ in ginger. 2. The specific activities and the optimum pHs of PGs were 1.5 unit/mg protein and pH 4.5 in Korean cabbage, 1.6 unit/mg protein and $pH\;4.5{\sim}5.5M$ in Korean raddish, 0.06 unit/mg protein and $pH\;3.0{\sim}3.5M$ in garlic, and 0.06 unit/mg protein and $CaCl_2$ in ginger. The concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ which showed the highest activities of PGs were $0.1{\sim}0.2M$ NaCl and $0.15{\sim}0.2mM$ mM $CaCl_2$ in all materials. 3. The specific activities and the optimum pHs of PODs in Korean cabbage, Korean raddish, garlic and ginger were 71.3 unit/mg protein ; pH 6.0. 769 unit/mg protein ; pH 5.5, 1.09 unit/mg protein ; pH 4.5 and 12.7 unit/mg protein ; $pH\;5.0{\sim}5.5M$, respectively. POD activities were not decreased in Korean cabbage, but decreased in Korean raddish by the increase of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ concentrations. In garlic and ginger, POD activities were a little slightly affected by the increase of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ concentrations.

Solvent extraction experiments have been performed to separate copper from $CuCl_2$-$NiCl_2$-$CoCl_2$$ solutions using Alamine336 and LIX84. The complex formation tendency between metal ions and chloride ion had a great effect on the distribution coefficients of Cu, Co and Ni ions and separation factor of Cu to Co and Ni. In the experimental ranges of chloride ion concentration from 0.5 to 4.0 M, LIX84 was superior to Alamine336 in separating copper from cobalt. When the volume percentage of LIX84 and Alamine336 was varied from 5 to 40%, LIX84 was more effective than Alamine336 in separating Cu from Co and Ni in solutions in which the chloride ion concentration was 1.0 M.

Phospholipase D (PLD) is known to play an important role in a variety of cells. However, little is known about $CoCl_2-mediated$ PLD signaling. In this study we demonstrated for the first time that $CoCl_2$ stimulates PLD activity and increases expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is known to mediate inflammatory reaction. $CoCl_2-induced$ PLD activity was assessed by measuring the formation of $[^3H]$ phosphatidylbutanol (PtdBut), the product of PLD-mediated transphosphatidylation, in the presence of 1-butanol. To study mechanism of PLD signaling induced by $CoCl_2$, U87 human glioblastoma cells were stimulated by $CoCl_2$ and regulators of PLD activity induced by $CoCl_2$ were investigated using several inhibitors of signaling proteins. Moreover, PLD activation by $CoCl_2$ increased not only expression of COX-2 protein but also COX-2 promoter activity. In summary, these results suggest that $CoCl_2$ increases expression of COX-2 protein via PLD in human U87 glioblastoma cells.

BACKGROUND: Deicers such as calcium chloride ($CaCl_2$) and sodium chloride (NaCl) in Korea have been commonly used to reduce traffic accidents as well as injuries. However there have been adverse effects of deciders such as pollution of water and soil, and reduced productivity of agriculture as well as forest. This study aimed to investigate biological effects of the deicers against wheat, barley, and spinach. METHODS AND RESULTS: The germination of tested crop seeds exposed to chloride-deicers, $CaCl_2$ and NaCl was significantly reduced at over 3% concentration of chloride-deicers compared to the control. In spraying deicers to the seedlings of the crops, there was no symptom such as inhibition of growth rate or leaf elongation. However the germination of tested crop seeds was affected at 2% concentration of deicers when they were exposed continuously to deicers in soils. The growth of the shoot against $CaCl_2$ and NaCl treatments was very similar in wheat and barley whereas the shoot of spinach was the most susceptible. Based on these results, the sensitivity of the crops to the tested deicers was as follows: NaCl > $CaCl_2$ > mixture ($CaCl_2$ + NaCl). The length of shoots and roots of the seedlings grown in 1% treated soil was decreased. The biomass of all the seedlings decreased 1.5 to 4 times at 1%. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that the effects of salt deicers by inputting into soil against growing tested crops are more severe in germination and growth inhibition as well as biomass decrease.

The interaction between UN and CdCl₂ in the LiCl-KCl molten eutectic was studied at 1023 K. The chlorination was monitored by sampling and recording the redox potential of the medium. At 1023 K the chlorination of UN with cadmium chloride in the molten LiCl-KCl eutectic proceeds completely and results in the formation of uranium chlorides. The melts of the LiCl-KCl-UCl₃ or LiCl-KCl-UCl₄ compositions can be obtained by the end of experiment depending on the presence of metallic cadmium in the reaction zone. The higher the concentration of the chlorinating agent, the faster the reaction rate. At [CdCl₂]/[UN] = 1.65 (10% excess) the reaction proceeds to completion in about 7.5 h. At [CdCl₂]/[UN] = 7 the complete chlorination takes 2.5-3 h.
