The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$, $Na_2HPO_4{\cdot}12H_2O$, $CaHPO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, $Ca(H_2PO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ and $H_3PO_4$ for the stabilization of soils contaminated with multi-metals containing Pb, Cd and As. The application rate of stabilizers to soils was determined based on $PO_4/Pb_{total}$ molar ratio of 0.5, 1, 2, 4. The results of Korea Standard Test and TCLP (EPA Method 1311) showed the reduction of metal leachabilities below the regulatory limits for Pb and Cd when $H_3PO_4$ and $Ca(H_2PO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ were applied. However, stabilization efficiency for Cd was low and in case of As leaching concentration increased rather. It is considered that $PO_4$ reacted effectively $Pb^{2+}$ due to leaching Pb under low pH condition created by adding $H_3PO_4$. Accordingly Pb was stabilized by dissolution and precipitation of hydroxypyromorphite. From the change of metals fraction using sequential extraction procedure when $H_3PO_4$ applied as a stabilizer, we confirmed that residual fraction increased more than 60% and this result was accorded with XRD analysis that detected only hydroxypyromorphite peak in $H_3PO_4$.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ on pH stabilization in deep flow culture system using tap water, and to determine the optimum range of NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ in culture solution. The pH of tap water is 7.5. The higher the concentration of NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ was, the more the pH of nutrient solution was decreased. In NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 4/3-5/3 me/$\ell$, the pH of nutrient solution was 6-7.5 during the experiment. The highest brix(%) was obtained in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 5/3-6/3 me/$\ell$. Leaf length, leaf width and stem-base diameter were highest in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 2/3 me/$\ell$. The L and b＊ values were highest and the a＊ value was lowest in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 8/3 me/$\ell$. Toxicity symptom of ammonium appeared in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 8/3 me/$\ell$. It suggests that there was the relationship between leaf color and growth condition. It was concluded that NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 2/3 me/$\ell$ was good before harvest stage and NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 5/3-6/3 me/$\ell$ at harvest stage.

These experiments were conducted to investigate the condition of the production and the heat resistance of the acid protease by Rhizopus japonicus S-62. The results obtained were as follows: 1) The optimum concentrations of sucrose, yeast, ammonium chloride and sodium phosphate monobasic added to the wheat bran medium in the acid protease production were 0.5％, 2.0％, 0.4％, and 0.4％, respectively. 2) KH$_2$PO$_4$ and NaH$_2$PO$_4$ were the most effective as the heat resistant agents. 3) When the enzyme solutions added with KH$_2$PO$_4$ and NaH$_2$PO$_4$ to the concentration of 2％ were heated for 10 min, at 50$^{\circ}C$, their residual activities were 100％, respectively. 4) The heat resistant effects of KH$_2$PO$_4$ and NaH$_2$PO$_4$ were not observed almost above 55$^{\circ}C$.

Porous alumina ceramics with addition of 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt% Al(H₂PO₄)₃ were sintered at 1300, 1350, and 1400℃. The effects of the Al(H₂PO₄)₃ addition on crystal phases, water absorption, open porosity, pore size distribution, microstructures, and flexural strength were studied extensively. The experimental results revealed that only characteristic peaks of corundum were indexed in the XRD patterns of the as-prepared porous ceramics. The water absorption and open porosity of the porous Al₂O₃ ceramics increased remarkably with an increase in Al(H₂PO₄)₃ addition. The flexural strength first increased to a maximum value when 5 wt% Al(H₂PO₄)₃ was added and then decreased as additional Al(H₂PO₄)₃ was further added. SEM images showed that the average Al₂O₃ grain size in the porous ceramics changed in an opposite way as the flexural strength. The porous Al₂O₃ ceramics with 10 wt% Al(H₂PO₄)₃ addition exhibited comparable flexural strength to the ceramics without Al(H₂PO₄)₃ addition, although the latter had much higher porosity.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ on pH of the nutrient solution using municipal tap water during hydroponic culture of crisp lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. capitata) seedlings. The composition of starter solution was different from that of supplementary solution. The pH in the nutrient solution was suddenly declined and recovered as the supplementary solution was supplied. The pH of nutrient solution was increased with high temperature and, on the contrary, the EC of nutrient solution was decreased. It shows that plant absorbed nutrients more than water in given solution when the temperature and light was high. After supplying supplementary solution in 1st and End experiment, pH was slowly increased to 7 in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 0.25me/$\ell$, but maintained 6.4-6.5 in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 3me/$\ell$ and 6me/$\ell$. In 3rd experiment, pH was slowly increased from 6.7 to 7.4 in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 0.25me/$\ell$, but decreased from 6-6.5 to 5-5.5 in NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ 3me/$\ell$ and 6me/$\ell$. So it is suggested that the concentration between 0.25 me/$\ell$ and 3 me/$\ell$ by concentration base or the amount of NH$_4$H$_2$PO$_4$ between 1me/6 $\ell$ and 7me/6 $\ell$ by total quantity in solution is appropriate for stabilizing pH in the nutrient solution. Also this experiment suggests that hand operated measurements must be cautious due to the change of pH and EC within a 24-hour cycle.

The stream has various environments and they are serving as main habitats of aquatic organisms. The distribution of phytoplankton is affected by water environment, especially pH, nitrogen and phosphorus. To reveal the relationship between phytoplankton distribution and water environment, we measured pH, $NO_3{^-}$ and $PO{_4}^{3-}$ concentration, and abundance of phytoplankton at 10 sites in the upper stream of Dorim-cheon. pH value ranged 5.05 to 7.56. $NO_3{^-}$ and $PO{_4}^{3-}$ concentrations ranged 0.4 ~ 4.9ppm and 0.02 ~ 0.99ppm, respectively. A point source of $NO_3{^-}$ was Seoul National University but concentration was not high and dropped to normal range at 400m downstream. $NO_3{^-}/PO{_4}^{3-}$ ratio ranged 28 to 152 except site 4 (0.4) where was affected by $PO{_4}^{3-}$ point source. Water pH, $NO_3{^-}$ and $PO{_4}^{3-}$ concentrations increased with downstream and were related to the input of irrigation water from Han-river between site 5 and 6. Bacillariophyceae alge dominated this stream. Phytoplankton density increased abruptly at downstream of site 5. In general, phytoplankton density did not increase until the $NO_3{^-}$ concentration of 3.5ppm and $PO{_4}^{3-}$ concentration of 0.07ppm. Phytoplankton density was low at sites where $NO_3{^-}/PO{_4}^{3-}$ ratio was larger than 50.

The effect of the precipitator (NaOH, $NH_4OH$) and the amount of the precipitator (150, 200, 250, 300 ml) on the formation of $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$, which is the precursor used for cathode material $LiFePO_4$ in Li-ion rechargeable batteries was investigated by the co-precipitation method. A pure precursor of olivine $LiFePO_4$ was successfully prepared with coprecipitation from an aqueous solution containing trivalent iron ions. The acid solution was prepared by mixing 150 ml $FeSO_4$(1M) and 100 ml $H_3PO_4$(1M). The concentration of the NaOH and $NH_4OH$ solution was 1 M. The reaction temperature (25$^{\circ}C$) and reaction time (30 min) were fixed. Nitrogen gas (500 ml/min) was flowed during the reaction to prevent oxidation of $Fe^{2+}$. Single phase $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ was formed when 150, 200, 250 and 300 ml NaOH solutions were added and 150, 200 ml $NH_4OH$ solutions were added. However, $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ and $NH_4FePO_4$ were formed when 250 and 300 ml $NH_4OH$ was added. The morphology of the $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ changed according to the pH. Plate-like lenticular shaped $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ formed in the acidic solution below pH 5 and plate-like rhombus shaped $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ formed around pH 9. For the $NH_4OH$, the pH value after 30 min reaction was higher with the same amount of additions of NaOH and $NH_4OH$. It is believed that the formation mechanism of $Fe_3(PO_4)_2$ is quite different between NaOH and $NH_4OH$. Further investigation on this mechanism is needed. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the pH value was measured by pH-Meter.

Influences of crystallization time and $H_2O/Al_2O_3$ ratio of the reaction mixtures on the synthesis of AlPO$_4$-5 molecular sieve have been studied by X-ray powder diffraction, nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and solid state $^{27}$Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) techniques. The degree of crystallinity of AlPO$_4$-5 follows a sigmoid pattem as crystallization time increases. The induction period is shorter than 1 h when the crystallization process is carried out at 150$^{\circ}$C. The conversion of reactants to product, AlPO$_4$-5, can be clearly observed, and all of the determined physical properties change abruptly after about 2 h. It is found that increase in $H_2O/Al_2O_3$ ratio of the reaction mixtures not only changes the crystal morphology from aggregates to hexagonal single crystals, but also results in the formation of longer AlPO$_4$-5 crystals.

This study aimed to evaluate surface morphology and resin tag penetration of resin infiltration into primary anterior teeth after enamel deproteinization with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) prior to phosphoric acid ($H_3PO_4$) etching. Ninety primary anterior teeth with non-cavitated caries lesion were devided five groups according to enamel pretreatment as follows, group I-15% hydrochloric acid (HCl) 2min. ; group II-5.25% NaOCl 1min., 35% $H_3PO_4$ 1min. ; group III-5.25% NaOCl 2min., 35% $H_3PO_4$ 1min. ; group IV-5.25% NaOCl 1min., 35% $H_3PO_4$ 2min. ; group V-5.25% NaOCl 2min., 35% $H_3PO_4$ 2min. Fifteen teeth were examined etched surface structure using field emission-scanning electron microscope. Seventy five teeth were infiltrated with resin, maximum penetration depth and percentage penetration were analysed using dual fluorescence confocal microscopy. As the application time of NaOCl increased, ratio of enamel type I, II were increased. Percentage penetration (PP) was higher in group V than group II, III (p < 0.05). PP of group IV, V did not show any differences. Non-cavitated caries of primary anterior teeth can be treated with resin infiltration. Enamel deproteinization with NaOCl prior to 35% $H_3PO_4$ etching could be an alternative of 15% HCl etching in resin infiltration.
