This study has been conducted to investigate the effect of Urea and K₂SO₄ treatment at stone hardening stage and 20 days before harvest on soil chemical properties, mineral nutrient concentration and quality of 'Mibaekdo' fruit peach. K concentration after Urea and K₂SO₄ treatment in soil was increased significantly by Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g/tree(standard amount) treatment at stone hardening stage, K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray, Urea 81g+K₂SO₄ 94g/tree(half amount), Urea 162g+K₂SO₄ 188g/tree and Urea 324g+K₂SO₄ 376g/tree(double amount) soil treatment before harvest 20 days compared to control. T-N, K and Ca concentration in leaf was increased significantly by all treatment. but Na concentration in leaf was increased by Urea 0.5% and K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray treatment before harvest 20 days. T-N concentration in fruit skin was increased significantly by standard amount soil treatment, which decreased by K₂SO₄ 1.0% tree-spray and half amount soil treatment. T-N, K and Ca concentration in fruit flesh(1~10mm depth flesh from peel) were increased markedly by all treatment excepted Urea 0.5% tree-spray. The leaf weight at harvest was increased markedly by Urea 0.5% tree-spray, standard amount and double amount treatment before harvest 20 days. Fruit weight was increased significantly by standard amount compared to all treatment. Red fruit skin(Hunter a value) progress was effective by K₂SO₄ tree-spray, half amount and double amount treatment before harvest 20 days. Fruit SSC was increased significantly by Urea 0.5% and K₂SO₄ tree-spray before harvest 20 days, standard amount treatment at stone hardening stage compared to control.

Al₂O₃ positively charged nanofiltration composite membrane was successfully prepared with aluminate coupling agent (ACA) as modifier, sodium bisulfite (NaHSO₃) and potassium persulfate (K₂S₂O₈) as initiator and methacryloyloxyethyl trimethylammonium chloride (DMC) as crosslinking monomer. The surface of the membrane before grafting and after polymerization were characterized by SEM and FT-IR. Three factor and three-level orthogonal experiments were designed to explore the optimal conditions for membrane preparation, and the optimal group was successfully prepared. The filtration experiments of different salt solutions were carried out, and the retention molecular weight was determined by polyethylene glycol (PEG). The results showed that the polymerization temperature had the greatest effect on the rejection rate, followed by the reaction time, and the concentration of DMC had the least effect on the rejection rate. The rejection rates of CaCl₂, MgSO₄, NaCl and Na₂SO₄ in the optimal group were 83.8%, 81.3%, 28.1% and 23.6% (average value), respectively. The molecule weight cut-off of 90% (MWCO) of the optimal group was about 460, which belongs to nanofiltration membrane.

To find out the effect of burn out print finishing for better quality of fabric, examined processing which could make less damages on the fiber because the biggest problem is remained fibers damage after burn out print finishing. Fiber damage examined to the condition of finishing material NaHSO$_4$and H$_2$SO$_4$, 3~10min., 100~13$0^{\circ}C$, glycerin. The fiber damages evaluated the break strength and the surface condition by SEM. Among satin, pile fabric which remained fiber is silk, warp knitted fabric which remained fiber is polyester, the fibers damage level were warp knitted fabric$0^{\circ}C$, glycerin and for 6 minutes by NaHSO$_4$. When carbonized by 20%. 50% and 70% to express textile design, carbonizing rate was not effect on the fiber damage very much. There was almost no damages with glycerine, and almost no damages during 3~6minutes fixation time, 10$0^{\circ}C$ steaming heat fixation by NaHSO$_4$and H$_2$SO$_4$. Without glycerine, there were damage by hydrolysis on polyesters surface and the fiver was broken by fixation time.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the decolorization and reduced sludge of real textile wastewater by coagulation process. The aim of the study was to verify the relation between decolorization and coagulants of real textile wastewater treatment processes. Coagulation processes were performed using $FeCl_3$, $FeSO_4$, and $Al_2(SO_4)_3$. Real textile wastewater has a mean concentration for BOD, COD, pH, color to be 800 mg/L, 600 mg/L, 9.7, and 102, respectively. From the experimental results, it was shown that the $FeCl_3$ exhibited higher decolorization at the operating conditions 335~2000 mg/L of coagulants and 500 mg/L NaOH dosage. The efficiency of color removal depended on the wastewater pH and concentration of coagulants.

In this paper, two statistical methods were applied to optimize medium components to improve the production of the milk-clotting enzyme by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens D4. First, wheat bran juice, skim milk powder, and $Na_2HPO_4$ were shown to have significant effects on D4 enzyme production using the Plackett-Burman experimental design. Subsequently, an optimal medium was obtained using the Box-Behnken method, which consisted of 3.31 g/l of skim milk powder, 5.0 g/l of sucrose, 0.1 g/l of $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.1 g/l of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.1 g/l of $MnSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, 0.1 g/l of $ZnSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 1.52 g/l of $Na_2HPO_4$, and 172.45 g/l of wheat bran juice. With this optimal medium, the milk-clotting enzyme production was remarkably enhanced. The milk-clotting enzyme activity reached 3,326.7 SU/ml after incubation of 48 h, which was 1.76-fold higher than that of the basic medium, showing that the Plackett-Burman design and Box-Behnken response surface method are effective to optimize medium components, and B. amyloliquefaciens D4 possessed a high rennet-producing capacity in the optimal medium.

The extremely halophilic archaebacterium Haloarcular sp. EH-1 was isolated from solar salts. Amylae production from Halonrcular sp. EH-1 have been studied. The results obtained were as follows. The optimal medium composition for the production of amylase from Haloarcular sp. EH-1 were soluble starch 1.5%, yeast extract 1.0%, MgSO$_4$ 7h$_2$O 2.0%, KCI 0.1%, NaCl 25% (pH 7.5). The incubation temperature, aeration rate and agitation speed were 4$0^{\circ}C$, 100 $m\ell$ medium / 500 $m\ell$ shaking flask, and 110 rpm. The cell growth and enzymatic activity was highest at 9 days of incubation. So amylase production appeared to be a growth-related phenomenon.

The effect of ethanol on the contraction of intestinal smooth muscle in Na-free solution was studied using cat ileal longitudinal muscle strips. Ethanol $(0.5{\pm}4%)$ inhibited both the spontaneous mechanical activity and base-line tension in normal physiological salt solution. However, in Na-free solution it induced a reversible contraction. The excitatory effect by ethanol in Na-free solution was increased with increasing the concentrations of ethanol and the time incubated in Na-free solution. The excitatory response by ethanol was reduced by increasing the concentrations of Na in incubated medium . Ethanol-induced contractile response was not affected by $Ca^{2+}$ removal in bathing medium. In Na-free solution, the contraction by ethanol was inhibited by Las. but was not affected by verapamil. The contraction induced by Na removal in solution was inhibited by the pretreatment of ethanol. These results suggest that ethanol may induce the contraction by increasing the release of superficially membrane-bound $Ca^{2+}$ and/or intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ in Na-free physiological salt solution.

New quaternary compounds $ANb_2PS_{10}$ (A = Na, Ag) and $AuNb_4P_2S_{20}$ were synthesized and characterized. The structures of three compounds consist of one-dimensional infinite chains built by [$Nb_2S_{12}$] and [$PS_4$] units. Cation atoms are occupied within the van der Waals gap of sulfur atoms between infinite chains to make -S…$M^+$…S- contacts. There is only one Au atom site and so crystallographically a unit cell contains four equivalent Au atoms in $AuNb_4P_2S_{20}$. This is only the half of the numbers of Na or Ag atoms in $NaNb_2PS_{10}$ or $AgNb_2PS_{10}$. The ratio between $Nb_2PS_{10}$ matrix vs the cation is, therefore, 1 : 1 for Ag and Na, but it is 2 : 1 for Au. Mixed valency in Au or Nb was expected to balance the charge in the latter compound. The electronic structures calculated based on the extended Huckel tight-binding method show that $ANb_2PS_{10}$ (A = Ag, Na) are semiconducting, while $AuNb_4P_2S_{20}$ is metallic, which is not consistent with the experimental results of these three compounds that all exhibit semiconducting property. The result of calculation suggests that $AuNb_4P_2S_{20}$ might be a magnetic insulator. Magnetic measurement experiment exactly proved that the compound is a Slater antiferromagnetic material with the Neels' temperature of 45 K. It is recognized, therefore, that electronic structure analysis is very useful to understand the properties of compounds.

[ $TiO_2$ ] nanotubes for photocatalytic application have been synthesized by hydrothermal method. $TiO_2$ nanotubes are formed by washing process after reaction in alkalic solution. Nanotubes with different morphology have been fabricated by changing NaOH concentration, temperature and time. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were treated inside NaOH aqueous solution in a Teflon vessel at $110^{\circ}C$ for 20 h, after which they were washed with HCl aqueous solution and deionized water. Nanotube with the most perfect morphology was formed from 0.1 N HCl washing treatment. $TiO_2$ nanotube was also obtained when the precursor was washed with other washing solutions such as $NH_4OH$, NaCl, $K_2SO_4$, and $Na_2SO_3$. Therefore, it was suggested that $Na^+$ ion combined inside the precursor compound slowly comes out from the structure, leaving nanosheet morphology of $TiO_2$ compounds, which in turn become the nanotube in the presence of hydroxyl ion. To stabilize the sheet morphology, the different type of washing treatment solution might be considered such as amine class compounds.

Loxoprofen-Na (sodium 2-〔4-(2-oxocyclopentylmethyl)pheny)propionate dihydrate) is a potent analgesic drug. We developed loxoprofen-Na plasters to extend duration time of analgesic activity and to reduce side effect on gastrointestinal tract. Analgesic effect of Loxoprofen-Na plasters was investigated. Loxoprofen-Na plaster had good analgesic effect in rat paw pressure test, Tail-flick latency test and acetic acid-induced writhing test. Also, it had anti-inflammatory effect on carrageenan-induced rat hind paw edema. In pharmacokinetic study of Loxoprofen-Na, plasters dosage form showed that plasma drug concentration was prolonged up to 14 hours. So, we can conclude that loxoprofen-Na plasters, when applied on skin, will be a new type of drug for controlling the various local pain or inflammation.
