In a 20 L fermentor experiments the level of dissolved oxygen (D.O.) strongly affected growth and PHBV production of Azotobacter vinelandii UWD. A higher D.O. (5%) increased specific cell growth rate two folds but PHBV production was 17 folds higher (62.3 wt%) at a lower D.O.(1%) level. D.O. level was not a good criterion to evaluate the effect of aeration on fermentation characteristics of A. vinelandii UWD. This strain maintained an equal D.O. (5%) by decreasing its oxygen consumption rate when oxygen transfer rate (OTR) was decreased by changing agitation speed at a fixed aeration rate. OTR rather than D.O. was a criterion to explain the effect of aeration on the cell growth and PHBV production. At 5% D.O. with a lower 0TR cell growth rate decreased but PHBV production (57.3 wt%) approached to that (62.3 wt%) of the lower (1%) D.O.

We studied the H/D exchange kinetics of pure and acid dopped water-ice film by using the techniques of reactive ions scattering (RIS) and low energy sputtering (LES) with low kinetic energy cesium ion beam (<35 eV). From RIS, neutral water isotopomers were detected in the form of cesium-molecule ion clusters, $CsX^+$ (X= $H_2O$, HDO, $D_2O$). Ionic species, like $H_3O^+$, $DH_2O^+$, $D_2HO^+$, $D_3O^+$, adsorbed on the surface were ejected via LES process. Those techniques allowed us to trace the isotopomeric populations of water-ice film. To show the catalytic effect of excess proton in the H/D exchange reaction, our study was conducted with two types of water-ice films. In film 1, about 0.5 BL of $H_2O$ was adsorbed on HCl (0.1 ML) dopped $D_2O$ (8 BL) film. In film 2, similar amount of $H_2O$ used in film 1 was adsorbed on pure $D_2O$ film. Kinetic data were obtained from each film type for 90-110 K (film 1) and 110-130 K (film 2) and fitted with numerically integrated lines. Through the Arrhenius plot of kinetic coefficient deduced from fitting of the H/D exchange reaction, the activation energy of film 1 and 2 were estimated to be $10{\pm}3kJmol^{-1}$ and $17{\pm}4kJmol^{-1}$. This activation barrier difference could be understood from detailed pictures of H/D exchange. In film 2, both the formation of ion pair, $H_3O^+$ and OH. and proton transfer were needed for the H/D exchange. However, in film 1, only proton transfer was necessary but ion pair formation was not, so this might reduce the activation energy.

The fruits of Pourthiaea villosa were extracted with methanol and its extract was fractionated with n-hexane, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Repeated column chromatography of silica gel, sephadex LH-20 and HPLC led to the isolation of nine phenolic compounds from ethyl acetate soluble fraction. The chemical structures were elucidated as kaemferol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (astragalin) (1), isorhamnetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (2), kaempferol-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside (3), caffeic acid (4), quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-a-L-rhamnopyranoside (5), quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (6), quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-${\beta}$-D-galactopyranoside (7), quercetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside (quercitrin) (8), and kaempferol-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside (afzelin) (9) by spectroscopic techniques. These compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time.

The leaves of Paulownia coreana Uyeki were extracted with acetone-$H_2O$ (7:3, v/v), concentrated under reduced pressure and fractionated successively with n-hexane, methylene chloride and ethyl acetate, leaving residual water soluble fraction. A portion of the resulting aqueous soluble powder was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column using aqueous methanol and ethanol-hexane as washing solvents. Three apigenin derivatives were isolated and identified as apigenin-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucpyranoside, apigenin-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucuronopyranoside and apigenin-7-O-[${\beta}$-D-glucuronopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-O-${\beta}$-D-glucuronopyranoside] by spectroscopic methods including NMR and FAB-MS.

We find a graded Artinian level O-sequence of the form $H\;:\;h_0\;h_1\;\cdots\;h_{d-1}\;h_d\cdots$ $^{(d+1-1_)-st}h_d$ < $h_{d+s}$ not having the Weak-Lefschetz property. We also introduce several algorithms for construction of some examples of non-unimodal level O-sequences using a computer program called CoCoA.

Background: Zinc (Zn) is an essential cofactor for physiological homeostasis in the body. Zn oxide (ZnO), an inorganic compound that supplies Zn, exists in various sizes, and its bioavailability may vary depending on the size in vivo. However, comparative studies on the nutritional effects of micro-sized ZnO (M-ZnO) and nano-sized ZnO (N-ZnO) supplementation on Zn deficiency (ZnD) animal models have not been reported. Objectives: This study investigated the nutritional bioavailability of N-ZnO and M-ZnO particles in dietary-induced ZnD mice. Methods: Animals were divided into six experimental groups: normal group, ZnD control group, and four ZnO treatment groups (Nano-Low, Nano-High, Micro-Low, and MicroHigh). After ZnD induction, N-ZnO or M-ZnO was administered orally every day for 4 weeks. Results: ZnD-associated clinical signs almost disappeared 7 days after N-ZnO or M-ZnO administration. Serum Zn concentrations were higher in the Nano-High group than in the ZnD and M-ZnO groups on day 7 of ZnO treatment. In the liver and testis, Nano-Low and Nano-High groups showed significantly higher Zn concentrations than the other groups after 14-day treatment. ZnO supplementation increased Mt-1 mRNA expression in the liver and testis and Mt-2 mRNA expression in the liver. Based on hematoxylin-and-eosin staining results, N-ZnO supplementation alleviated histological damage induced by ZnD in the testis and liver. Conclusions: This study suggested that N-ZnO can be utilized faster than M-ZnO for nutritional restoration at the early stage of ZnD condition and presented Mt-1 as an indicator of Zn status in the serum, liver, and testis.

The phytochemical studies of the leaves of Caragana chamlagu were carried out as a sieries of the investigation of medicinal resources. The roots of Caragana chamlagu have been used as neuralgia, arthritis and migraine in the folk medicines of Korea. The methanolic extract of the leaves of Caragana chamlagu was suspended with water and then separated with chloroform. Compound I was isolated from precipitates of these water fraction by recrystalization. The aqueous fraction of MeOH extract was performed to column chromatography on Amberlite XAD-4 and Sephadex LH-20, and three compounds, compound II, compound III, and compound IV were isolated. The structures of the four compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic data of $^1H-NMR$, ^{13}C-NMR$, IR, and FAB-MS. Compound I-IV were tilianine ($acacetin-7-O-{\beta}-D-glycopyranoside$), rutin($quercetin-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosy(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glu-copyranoside$), $kaempferol-3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$, and apigetrin, ($apigenin-7-O-{\beta}-D-glycopyranoside$), respectively.

The effects of ionic strength on the polynucleation reaction of tungstate ions and the protonized reaction of polytungstate ions have been investigated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4 M KCl.The hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are formed in the tungstate solutions whose ionic strengths are 1 M to 4 M KCl. The equilibrium constants for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are calculated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4M KCl. The enthalpy changes for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are as follows; $7H^++{6WO_4}^{2-}={HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}+3H_2O\;\;{\Delta}H^{\circ}=-62.4{\pm}0.6$$H^++{HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}={H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}\;\;{\Delta}H+_1^{\circ}=-4.12{\pm}0.10$$H^++{H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}={ H_3W_6O_{21}}^{3-}\;\;{\Delta}H_2^{\circ}=-4.36{\pm}0.30$ The free energy and entropy changes for the above reactions have been also calculated. A linear relation is formed between $log k_{6,7}$ and ionic strength, and $log k_1\;or\;log k_2\;vs{\cdot}{\mu}.$ $log k_{6,7}\;=\;D{\mu}+I,\;\;where\;D\;=\;1.66{\pm}0.02$$log k_1\;=\;D_1{\mu}+I_1,\;\;where\;D_1\;=\;-8.065{\pm}0.001$$log k_2\;=\;D_2{\mu}+I_2,\;\;where\;D_2\;=\;-0.376{\pm}0.006$
