The effects of temperature on the water uptake rate of soybeans soaked in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution were studied. The higher the soaking temperature, the faster the hydration rate, and among the three soybean varieties (Tanyob, Kwanggyo and Saeal), Tanyob(the smallest variety) showed faster rate than ocher varieties when soaking in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution. Activation energy due to weight increase was calculated using Arrhenius equation. z-Values calculated from weight changes to reach different degrees of hydration during soaking showed the tendency to decrease with the increase of hydration degree when soaking in tap water and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution.

The effects of $NaHCO_3$ on the electrocardiogram of rats were studied in the induced hyperkalemia. The subjects were divided into 4 groups: the group 1 was normal control and the data on this normal control had teen obtained from the following three groups before administration of KCl or $NaHCO_3$, the group 2 (KCl) was administered 40 ml per kg body weight of the 10 per cent KCl solution, the group 3 $(NaHCO_3)$ was administered 40 ml per kg body weight of the 10 per cent $NaHCO_3$ solution, and the group 4 $(KCl+NaHCO_3)$ was received 10 per cent KCl, which was followed by administration of 10 per cent $NaHCO_3$ at one and half hours later. In KCl, the heart rate was decreased rapidly, and then maintained its level, later rapid decreasing heart rate was followed by the cardiac stand still. The mean electrical axis of QRS complex became progressively deviated to the left. The amplitude of T wave was increased transiently but was not changed thereafter. There was prolongation of the P-Q interval and the Q-T interval at the beginning and then they were shortened. In $NaHCO_3$, the heart rate was decreased rapidly at the beginning, later showed a tendency of recovery. The mean electrical axis of QRS was not changed initially, but later became deviated to the left. The amplitude of T wave was not changed. There was prolongation of the P-Q interval and the Q-T interval at the beginning and then they were shortened. In $KCl+NaHCO_3$, there were a tendency of recovery of both the amplitude of the T wave and the electrical axis of the QRS complex after administration of $NaHCO_3$ but the heart rate was not recovered. There was prolonged P-Q interval, but the Q-T interval was relatively unchanged.

In this experiment we transformed the Ca-bentonite into Na-bentonite with two inorganic Na-chemicals under different temperatures. These two Na-chemicals were selected among five different Na-chemicals which carries Na as cation. The swelling capacity of the Na chemical-treated bentonite was increased with increasing Na concentration, while the maximum concentration of Na solution decreased with increasing temperature. $Na_2CO_3$ was most effective in exchanging Ca ions and resulting in the highest swelling index among the Na-chemicals. The swelling index was significantly increased with increasing temperature to $100^{\circ}C$. But the equilibration time reversely affected the swelling index due to a rapid increase in evaporation of water. Within same amount of Na treatment SI slightly decreased not only with increasing contacting time but also with increasing temperature. The adsorption for the transformed Na-bentonite was increased with increasing equilibrium concentrations of Pb and Cd ions for all the activated Na-B and indigenous Ca-B and Na-B while the adsorbability of $Pb^{2+}$ onto each Na-B sample is more than that of $Cd^{2+}$. And the maximum adsorption capacity sequence of Na-B samples for Pb and Cd has been found to be 5 % $Na_2CO_3.$ - 5 % $NaHCO_3$ > 3 % $NaHCO_3$ > 3 % $Na_2CO_3$ > 1 % $NaHCO_3$ > 1 % $Na_2CO_3$ > indigenous Na-B > indigenous Ca-B, showing that there are contradictory results about the relationship of cation adsorption to CEC.

Effective alginate extraction from waste-brown seaweeds was studied. The waste-brown seaweeds almost consist of stems of seaweeds. Alginate could be obtained from the stems as well as leaves of seaweed. Ultrasonic vibration(47kHz) facilitated filtering step in the alginate extraction process. Among various alkalies for alginate extraction, $NaHCO_3$ was most appropriate concerning use of dealginates. The yield of alginate extraction using $NaHCO_3$ 2wt% solution was 19.3% at $60^{\circ}C$. The dealginates from $NaHCO_3$-extraction process have been found most suitable food for red-worms.

This experiment was carried out to obtain the basic data for removal the astringency and off-flavor in soybean milk, by means of soaking of soybean in NaOH and $NaHCO_3$ solutions. The changes of phenolic compounds in soybean during soaking were investigated with HPLC and also the changes of flavor and sensority of soybean milk, prepared from soaked soybean were studied. Phenolic compounds of soybean were identified as chlorogenic, p-hydroxybenzoic, p-coumaric, ferulic and gentisic acid and, chlorogenic acid content was greater than the others. The chlorogenic acid of soybean was mainly neutral type and the other compounds were almost acidic type. Up to 85% of the chlorogenic acid was removed by soaking of soybean in 0.1% of NaOH solution for 8 hrs. Phenolic compounds of soybean was almost removed by soaking in 0.1% of NaOH solution at $90^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. Chemical composition of soybean milks prepared from soaking of soybean in water, 0.1% NaOH and 0.5% $NaHCO_3$ solution were similar. Hexanol content of beany flavor in soybean milk was increased by soaking of soybean in NaOH solution, where as hexanal, propanal, pentanal contents were removed up to 60%. Color of soybean prepared from soaking of soybean in NaOH solution at high temperature were deep yellow but were high whiteness in soybean milk prepared from soaking of soybean in water at low temperature. Sensority of soybean milk prepared from soaking of soybean in 0.1% of NaOH solution at $90^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr was more favorable than the others.

In this study, the removal of Cs and Tc from a simulated fission products (FP) solution which were co-dissolved with U during the oxidative-dissolution of spent fuel in a mixed carbonate solution of $(Na_2CO_3-NaHCO_3)-H_2O_2$ was investigated by using a selective precipitation method. As Cs and Tc might cause an unstable behavior due to the high decay heat emission of Cs as well as the fast migration of Tc when disposed of underground, it is one of the important issues to removal them in views of the increase of disposal safety. The precipitation of Cs and Re (as a surrogate for Tc) was examined by introducing sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) and tetraphenylphosponium chloride (TPPCl), respectively. Precipitation of Cs by NaTPB and that of Re by TPPCl were completed within 5 minutes. Their precipitation rates were not influenced so much by the temperature and stirring speed even if they were increased by up to $50^{\circ}C$ and 1,000 rpm. However, the pH of the solution was found to have a great influence on the precipitation with NaTPB and TPPCl. Since Mo tends to co-precipitate with Re at a lower pH, especially, it was effective that a selective precipitation of Re by TPPCl was carried out at pH of above 9 without co-precipitation of Mo and Re. Over 99% of Cs was precipitated when the ratio of [NaTPB]/[Cs]>1 and more than 99% of Re, likewise, was precipitated when the ratio of [TPPCl]/[Re]>1.

The effects of diluents composition on cold storage for Scapharca broughtonii (Schrenck) sperm were examined in the percentage of sperm activity and survival rate. Various diluents of glucose solutions (10 mM Hepes-pH 7.8), 600 mM NaCl, stein solution, Ringer's solution (230 mM NaCl, 8 mM KCl, 2 mM $CaCl_2$, 3.7 mM $MgCl_2$, 0.2 mM $NaHCO_3$, 10 mM Hepes-pH 7.8), 20%, 25% ASW (NaCl 2.7 g + KCl 0.07 g + $CaCl_2$ 0.12 g + $MgCl_2$ 0.46 g + $NaHCO_3$ 0.05 g + distilled water 100 ml) were used to store th sperm at $4^{\circ}C$. The storage effect was evaluated using sperm activity and survival rate. Ringer's solution was found to be better diluents which maintained high activity and survival rate of sperm for a storage period of 7 days. Optimal pH of diluents to store the sperm at $4^{\circ}C$ is 7.5.

Spent ion-exchanged resin generated from various purification systems in CANDU reactor was contaminated with high activity of $^{14}C$ radionuclide. This paper describes the results of fundamental study to develop the applicable technology for the treatment of this spent resin. Based on the adsorption capacity of inactive $HCO_3$ ion and other anions on IRN-150 mixed resin, the removal characteristics of $HCO_3$ ion adsorbed on to IRN-150 by various stripping solutions were evaluated. Maximum adsorption amount of the $HCO_3$ ion onto IRN-150 raw resin was about 11 mg-C/g-resin which agrees with the theoretical adsorption amount of this resin. Adsorption affinity of various anions such as $CS,\;CO,\;Na\;NH_4$ was analyzed in single and multi-component systems. From the results of removal characteristics of the $HCO_3$ ion adsorbed on IRN-150 by various stripping solutions, $NH_4H_2PO_4$ stripping solution is more effective than $NaNO_3,\;Na_3PO_3$ solutions for the complete removal of $^{14}C$ radionuclide from the IRN-150 spent resin.

There was a decrease in nitrate reductase activity (NRA) measured in vivo in rice roots (Oryza sativa cv. Tongil) grown in anaerobic culture solution. But it was reversed by addition of malonate to the in vivo nitrate reduction assay medium. Malonate increased the in vivo NRA during 2-5 hours incubation and decreased it in longer incubation hours. In vivo NRA was stimulated by addition of NaHCO3 to the assay medium, but not by Na2CO3. The stimulation of NRA by NaHCO3 was not observed in shoot removed rice roots. It is suggested that CO2 from NaHCO3 is carboxylated by phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase, results in increasing the malate contents in the roots, and stimulates the in vivo NRA. NADH needed in nitrate reduction is supported by malate oxidation. In rice roots, it seems probable that malate oxidation in the mitochondria is more important to nitrate reduction than malae oxidation in cytoplasm.

Ruminants eating dry forage secrete large volumes of saliva which results in decreased plasma volume (hypovolemia) and the loss of $NaHCO_3$ from the blood. The present research investigated whether or not hypovolemia and the loss of $NaHCO_3$ from the blood in goats brought about by dry forage feeding actually depresses feed intake and saliva secretion, respectively. The present experiment consisted of three treatments (NI, ASI, MI). In the control treatment (NI), a solution was not infused. In the ASI treatment, i.v. infusion of artificial parotid saliva was initiated 1 h before feeding and continued for the entire 2 h feeding period. In the MI treatment, iso-osmotic mannitol solution was infused. The NI treatment showed that hematocrit and plasma total protein concentration were increased due to decreased circulating plasma volume brought about by feeding. In the ASI treatment, the fluid and $NaHCO_3$ that were lost from the blood because of a feeding-induced acceleration of saliva secretion was replenished with an intravenous infusion of artificial parotid saliva. This replenishment lessened the levels of suppression on both feeding and parotid saliva secretion. When only the lost fluid was replenished with an intravenous infusion of iso-osmotic mannitol solution in the MI treatment, the degree of feeding suppression was lessened but the level of saliva secretion suppression was not affected. These results indicate that the marked suppression of feed intake during the initial stages of dry forage feeding was caused by a feeding-induced hypovolemia while the suppression of saliva secretion was brought about by the loss of $NaHCO_3$ from the blood due to increased saliva secretion during the initial stages of feeding.
