This study was carried out to increase the rate of plant regeneration from embryogenic callus of A. keiskei on MS medium supplemented with ethylene inhibitors. When leaflet, petiolule, and petiole of A. keiskei were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2, 4-D, callus was well induced from leaflet segments at 2.0 ppm 2, 4-D. Shoot elongation of plantlets and shooting from embryogenic callus of A. keiskei were best on 2, 4-D-free medium supplemented with 2 ppm $AgNO_3$ or 10 ppm $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, but it was suppressed on the medium containing 1 ppm 2, 4-D with $AgNO_3$ or $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$. Root elongation of plantlets from embryogenic callus was best on 2, 4-D-free medium supplemented with 1 ppm $AgNO_3$ or 5 ppm $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, but rooting from embryogenic callus was none on the medium containing 1 ppm 2, 4-D with $AgNO_3$ or $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$. Fresh weight of plantlets from embryogenic callus was heaviest on 2, 4-D-free medium supplemented with 2 ppm of $AgNO_3$ or $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, while it was heaviest on the medium containing 1 ppm 2, 4-D with 1 ppm $AgNO_3$ or 2 ppm $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$.

The stability constants of 1,15-diaza-3,4:12,13-dibenzo-5,8,11-trioxacycloheptadecane (NenOdien H$_4$, L) with transition metal ions such as $Co^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;and\;Zn^{2+}$ have been determined by potentiometry in 95% methanol solution at 25$^{\circ}$C. The complex formation of the NenOdien $_4$ with the transition metal ions depends on the basicity of the donor atoms. The order of complex stability was Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II). The geometries of the complexes in solid state were discussed by visible-near infrared and infrared spectrophotometry, elemental analysis and electro-conductivity. The results suggest that the geometries of the solid complexes are octahedral for $[CoL_2(OH_2)Cl]Cl{\cdot}2H_2O$, $[NiL_2(OH_2)Cl]Cl{\cdot}2H_2O$, and $[ZnLCl_2]{\cdot}\frac{1}{2}H_2O$ and square pyramidal for [CuLCl]Cl, respectively.

A novel ligand N,N'-(2,6-pyridinedicarbonyl)bis[N-(carboxymethyl)] (L1) was designed and synthesized. Four co-luminescence groups of Sm-La-pyridyl carboxylic acids systems were researched, which are $K_4Sm_{(1-x)}-La_x(L_1)Cl_3{\cdot}y_1H_2O$, $K_4Sm_{(1-x)}La_x(L_2)Cl_3{\cdot}y_2H_2O$, $K_6Sm_{2(1-x)}La_{2x}(L_3)Cl_6{\cdot}y_3H_2O$, $K_4Sm_{(1-x)}La_x(L_4)Cl_3{\cdot}y_4H_2O$. The results indicated the addition of La(III) could sensitize the luminescence of Sm(III) obviously in a certain range, enhancing emission intensity of Sm-pyridyl carboxylic acids relative to the undoped ones. The optimal mole percentages of La(III) in the mixed ions for $L_1$, $L_2$, $L_3$, $L_4$ were confirmed to be 0.6, 0.5, 0.3, 0.6, respectively. The mechanism of the fluorescence enhancement effect was discussed in detail. Furthermore, the binding interaction of $K_4Sm_{0.4}La_{0.6}(L_4)Cl_3{\cdot}5H_2O$ with bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been investigated due to its potential biological activity. The binding site number n was equal to 1.0 and binding constant $K_a$ was about $2.5{\times}10^5\;L{\cdot}mol^{-1}$.

This work focused on characterization of the starch degradation activity from extremophile strain Deinococcus geothermalis. Glucoamylase gene from D. geothermalis was cloned and overexpressed by pET-21a vector using E. coli BL21 (DE3). In order to characterize starch degrading activity of recombinant glucoamylase, enzyme was purified using HisPur Ni-NTA column. The recombinant glucoamylase from D. geothermalis exhibited the optimum temperature as $45^{\circ}C$ for starch degradation activity. And highly acido-stable starch degrading activity was shown at pH 2. For further optimization of starch degrading activity with metal ion, various metal ions ($AgCl_2$, $HgCl_2$, $MnSO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$, $CoCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, $MgSO_4$, $ZnSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, $K_2SO_4$, $FeCl_2{\cdot}4H_2O$, NaCl, or $CuSO_4$) were added for enzyme reaction. As results, it was found that $FeCl_2{\cdot}4H_2O$ or $MnSO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$ addition resulted in 17% and 9% improved starch degrading activity, respectively. The recombinant glucoamylase from D. geothermalis might be used for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process at high acidic conditions.

Novel chromium(III), manganese(II), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), ruthenium(III), and zirconyl(II) complexes of $N^1,N^2$-bis(3-((3-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methylene-amino)propyl)phthalamide ($H_4L$, 1) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental, physical, and spectral analyses. The spectral data showed that the ligand behaves as either neutral tridentate ligand as in complexes 2-5 with the general formula $[H_4LMX_2(H_2O)]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M=Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), X = Cl or $NO_3$), neutral hexadentate ligand as in complexes 10-12 with the general formula $[H_4LM_2Cl_6]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M=Fe(III), Cr(III) or Ru(III)), or dibasic hexadentate ligand as in complexes 6-9 with the general formula $[H_2LM_2Cl_2(H_2O)_4]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M = Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) or Mn(II), and 13 with general formula $[H_4L(ZrO)_2Cl_2]{\cdot}8H_2O$. Molar conductance in DMF solution indicated the non-ionic nature of the complexes. The ESR spectra of solid copper(II) complexes 2, 5, and 6 showed $g_{\parallel}$ >g> $g_e$, indicating distorted octahedral structure and the presence of the unpaired electron in the $N^1,N^2$ orbital with significant covalent bond character. For the dimeric copper(II) complex $[H_2LCu_2Cl_2(H_2O)_4]{\cdot}3H_2O$ (6), the distance between the two copper centers was calculated using field zero splitting parameter for the parallel component that was estimated from the ESR spectrum. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the compounds showed that, some of metal complexes exhibited a greater inhibitory effect than standard drug as tetracycline (bacteria) and Amphotricene B (fungi).

The detection with lucigenin under physiological conditions is selective for ${\cdot} O_{2}^{-}$, for it can be accepted that lucigenin indicates actual intramembranal $\cdot O_{2}^{-}- formation$. Lucigenin chemiluminescence (CL) was elicited from the plasma membrane (PM) only by addition of reduced pyridine nucleotide. NADPH was preferred to NADH in PM and hepatocytes. This specificity was masked by $NAD(P)^+$ inhibition. The half maximum rate of CL increase was obtained with 1.5 ${\mu}m$ NADH or 55 ${\mu}m$ NADPH in hepatocytes and 6 ${\mu}m$ NADH or 30 ${\mu}m$ NADPH in plasma membranes. Measurement of these NADPH values required the presence of a NADPH-regenerating system. With NADPH the maximal rate obtained was 10 fold higher than with NADH. NADPH and NADH could produce CL when having access from either side of the membrane. They seemed to react with the identical acceptor because NADH-induced CL was also inhibited by $NADP^+$. The characteristics of ${\cdot}O_{2}^{-}-formation$ produced by pyridine nucleotide will be discussed.

In order to increase the mycelial production of Phellinus linteus, which exhibits potent anticancer activity, some ingredients of the medium used to culture P. linteus were investigated. The optimal medium composition for the production of Phellinus linteus was determined to be as follows: fructose, 40 g/l; yeast extract, 20 g/l; $K_2HPO_4$, 0.46 g/l; $K_2HPO_4$, 1.00 g/l; M$MgSO_4\cdot7H_2SO$, 0.50 g/l; $FeCl_2\cdot6_2O$, 0.01 g/l; $MnCl_2\cdot4H_2O$, 0.036 g/l; $ZnCl_2$, 0.03 g/l; and $SuSO_4\cdot7H_2O$, 0.005 g/l. The optimal culture conditions were determined to be as follows: temperature, 28$^{\circ}C$; initial pH, 5.5; aeration, 0.6 vvm; and agitation, 100 rpm, respectively. Under optimal composition and conditions, the maximum mycelial biomass achieved in a 5 l jar fermentor was 29.9 g/l.

The effect of inhibitors and catalysts in the synthesis of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(2-HEMA) was studied. As catalysts, triethylamine(TEA), $FeCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Cu(NO_3)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$, $AlCl_3$, $Na_2Cr_2O_7$were selected. p-Methoxyphenol (PMP) of aq. $NaNO_3$ solution was used as an inhibitor in polymerization. in aq. $NaNO_3$ inhibitor system, triethylamine (TEA), $FeCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$, and $Na_2Cr_2O_7$, showed good catalytic effects. When p-methoxyphenol(PMP) was used as a polymerization inhibitor, the reaction was very sluggish and noneffective because the metal ion such as $Fe^{3+}$ or $Cr^{6+}$ was reduced by PMP. On the contrary, when aq. $NaNO_3$ was used as an inhibitor in polymerization, the reaction was very fast without deactivation of the metal catalysts.
