This paper examines the effects of dietary fats on the fatty acid composition and market enzyme activites during liver damage in 2-acetylaminofluorene treated rats. Weaning Sprague-Dawley male rats were fed the diet of beef tallow(BT source of sturated fatty acid) corn oil(CO source of n-6 fatty acid) and perilla oil(PO source of n-3 fatty acid) at the level of 15% fat. Ten days after feeding 2-acetylaminofluorene(2-AAF) was injected intraperitoneally twice every week at the level of 50mg/kg body weight for 7 weeks. Liver microsomal and cytosolic fractions were collected to determine the microsomal fatty acid composition lipid peroxide(malondialdehyde MDA) contents glucose 6-phosphatase(G6 Pase) activity cytochrome(Cyt) P-450 contents and cytosolic glutathione S-transferase(G6 Pase) activity cytochrome(Cyt) P-450 contents and cytosolic glutathione S-transferase(GST) activity. The fatty acid composition in microsomal fraction was reflected by different dietary fats. By 2-AAF treatment linoleic acids were increased regardless of the diet MDA contents were higher in CO group than it was in BT group. However 2-AAF treatment decreased MDA contents in all dietary groups. G6Pase activity of BT group was higher than those of the other gropus. CO group had the highest Cyt P-450 contents and 2-AAF treatment lowered Cyt P-450 contents only in CO gropu GST activites were higher in CO than in BT group whereas the enzyme activites were increased by 20AAF treatment in all dietary groups. These results suggest that dietary fats and 2-AAF treatment in all dietary groups,. These results suggest that dietary fats and 2-AAF treatment affect microsomal fatty acid composition The enzyme activities concerned with liver damage were influenced differently by dietary fats and 2-AFF treatment Although PO diet contains much more polyunsaturated fatty acids than CO diet PO diet doesn't cause more oxidant stress compared with CO diet in these data.

A comparison betwen the productivity of Pinus rigida which is native in the Eastern United States, and P. rigitaeda which is F1 hybrid between P. rigida and P. taeda, has been established. For each tree the diameter at breast height (D) and the height of tree (H) were measured in three years. The standard sample trees were down and then weighed each organ. From obtained data the allometric relation between $D_2H$ and dry weight of the trunk (Ws), the branches (Wb) and the leaves (Wl) of P. rigida were approxmated by $$Ws=0.0592 (D^2H)^{0.837}$$ $$Wb=0.0065 (D^2H)^{0.989}$$ $$Wl=0.0447(D^2H)^{0.690}$$ and those of P. rigitaeda were approximated by $$Ws=0.0522 (D^2H)^{0.843}$$ $$Wb=0.0037 (D^2H)^{1.117}$$ $$Wl=0.0207 (D^2H)^{0.856}$$ From the above, the standing crops of above ground of P. rigida were estimated to be as much as 16.93-34.35 ton dry matter per ha, and those of P. rigitaeda were 20.45-45.55 ton per ha. Annual net production was appraised at 8.07-9.35 ton/ha.yr in P. rigida and at 11.59-13.41 ton/ha.yr in P. rigitaeda (1.0:1.4). It is assumed that high productivity of P. rigitaeda stand compared with P. rigida resulted from an increase of the leaf amount with age. Photosynthetic ability under the saturated light of the current and theold leaves of P. rigida were respectively 2.62 and 0.66mg CO2/g. d. wt..hr and those of P. rigitaeda were 1.17 and 0.96mg CO2/g.d. wt.hr. Respiration of the current and the old leaves at $25^{\circ}C$ were 1.00 and 0.90 mg CO2/g. d. wt..hr. in P. rigida and 0.90 and 0.45mg CO2/g.d.wt.hr in P. rigitaeda. It is assumed that photosynthetic longevity of P. rigitaeda leaves was vigorously maintained longer than that of P. rigida.

As part of monitoring technology aimed at verifying the stability of CO₂ geologic storage and mitigating concerns about leakage, a method for measuring the pH and alkalinity of high-pressure fluid samples was established to obtain practical technology. pH measurement for high-pressure samples utilized a high-pressure pH electrode, and alkalinity was measured using the Gran titration method for samples collected with a piston cylinder sampler (PCS). Experimental samples, referencing CO₂-rich water and CO₂ geologic storage studies, were prepared in the laboratory. The PCS controls the piston, preventing CO₂ degassing and maintaining fluid pressure, allowing mixing with KOH to fix dissolved CO₂. Results showed a 6.1% average error in high-pressure pH measurement. PCS use for sample collection maintained pressure, preventing CO₂ degassing. However, PCS-collected sample alkalinity measurements had larger errors than non-PCS measurements, limiting PCS practicality in monitoring field settings. Nevertheless, PCS could find utility in preprocessing for carbon isotope analysis and other applications. This research not only contributes to the field of CCS monitoring but also suggests potential applications in studies related to natural analogs of CCS, CO₂-rock interaction experiments, core flooding experiments, and beyond.

Synthetic studies have been carried out for the addition or substitution of phosphorus nucleophiles to the cation $[(exo-6-R-{\eta}^ {5_-}2-MeO-C_6H_5)Mn(CO)_2NO]PF_6,$ 2. $PPh_3$ reacts with 2 to yield the CO displaced product and $MePPh_2$ attacks the dienyl ring of 2 to yield the phosphonium adduct or the metal to give the CO displaced depending upon the reaction temperatures. Nucleophilic addition of HPPh2 to the dienyl ring of 2 gives a neutral substituted product. $P(OMe)_3$ reacts with 2 to yield a mixture of ring adduct and CO displaced product at room temperature. $At - 20^{\circ}C,\;P(OMe)_3$ attacks the dienyl ring of 2 to give a posphonium adduct, which underwent Arbuzov reaction. This reaction affords a new route to the phosphonate complexes.

The reaction and coordination chemistry of chiral ferrocenylaminophosphines such as 2-(diphenylphosphino)-1-(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl) ferrocene (PPFA), and 1',2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-l-(N,N-dimethylaminoe thyl) ferrocene (BPPFA), with various iron carbonyls have been investigated. PPFA reacted with iron carbonyls, Fe$(CO)_5$, $Fe_2(CO)_9$, or $Fe_3(CO)_{12}$ to give an iron complex of the type (${\eta}^1$-PPFA-P)Fe$(CO)_4$ (1) as a single product regardless the choice of the iron carbonyls. The bisphosphine ligand BPPFA afforded two products (${\eta}^1$-BPPFA-P)Fe$(CO)_4$ (2) and (${\mu}$,${\eta}^1$-BPPFA-P,P)$Fe_2(CO)_8$ (3) in which BPPFA acts as a monodentate and a bridging ligand, respectively. In all cases coordination to the -Fe$(CO)_4$ moiety is made through the phosphine rather than the amino group and, in the case of 2, the coordination is made through the phosphine substituted at the $C_5H_4$ ring to reduce the steric congestion.

In this study, the effect of ammonium chloride on the electrodeposition of CoP magnetic alloy film was investigated. The correlation between the electrodeposition condition and the magnetic properties was tried to elucidate by the electro- analytical tests such as cyclic voltammetry. It was observed that the magnetic properties of the films were varied extensively with the ammonium chloride contents in the solution. The reason why the magnetic properties of the films were varied with the addition of ammonium chloride was thought that the addition of ammonium chloride controlled the electrocrystallization of CoP kinetically by charge transfer and increased the grain size and the orientation factor. This may cause the variation of the magnetic properties of CoP films.

The objective of this work is to prove a possibility of void f illing through a carbonation f or the purpose of improving the quality of recycled aggregate. Carbonation can permanently immobilize CO2, which is a greenhouse gas, and thus provides additional benefit on environment. In this work, recycled fine aggregate was reacted using gaseous CO2 and supercritical CO2(scCO2) in a closed chamber, and the changes in physical properties of the recycled f ine aggregate bef ore and af ter carbonation were analyzed using the apparent density, skeletal density, pH, and FE-SEM measurements. Thereafter, a mortar specimen was prepared and a compressive strength was measured. According to the experimental results, it was found that the increase in the apparent density and the true density was higher by the reaction with scCO2, which was conducted at high temperature and high pressure compared to the reaction with gaseous CO2. In addition, the pH of the eluted water was found to have a larger initial decrease than that observed with samples from reaction by gaseous CO2. The shape and amount of calcium carbonate crystals were also found to be larger than that from gaseous CO2. The increase in compressive strength was the largest when using recycled fine aggregate reacted with scCO2. It was clear that quality improvement of recycled fine aggregate was higher with scCO2 than with gaseous CO2.

Cellulose nitrate (CN) composite membranes, containing cobalt porphyrin (CoP) complexes self-assembled within nanometer-sized rhenium clusters (ReCoP), have been prepared and their oxygen and nitrogen gas perme­abilities were analyzed. The solubility of ReCoP and the characteristics of the corresponding composite membranes were analyzed using a Cahn microbalance, FT-IR spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray scattering, and differential scanning calorimetry. The nitrogen permeability through the CN composite membranes decreased upon addition of ReCoP and CoP, which implies that the presence of these oxygen carrier complexes affects the structure of the polymer matrix. The oxygen permeability through the composite membranes containing small quantities of ReCoP decreased, but it increased upon increasing the concentration. The oxygen gas transport was affected by the matrix at low ReCoP concentrations, but higher concentrations of ReCoP increased the oxygen permeability as a result of its reversible and specific interactions with oxygen, effectively realizing ReCoP carrier-mediated oxygen transport.

Blood gas values such as pO$_2$ were studied in common marmosets, crab-eating macaques and Japanese macaques, rhesus macaques and celebes macaque reared in Korea. Blood pH and blood gas values were evaluated in both arterial and venous blood. pH, p$CO_2$, and pO$_2$, of arterial blood in common marmosets were measured as 7.4$\pm$0.1, 29.2$\pm$3.6 mmHg and 81.5$\pm$8.9 mmHg, respectively. Corresponding values in one crab-eating macaque were 7.3, 41.3 mmHg and 46.5 mmHg, respectively. In case of venous blood, pH, p$CO_2$, and pO$_2$, in common marmosets were observed as 7.2$\pm$0.2, 64.9$\pm$18.3 mmHg and 23.5$\pm$5.4 mmHg, respectively. On the while, pH, p$CO_2$, and pO$_2$, of venous blood in crab-eating macaques showed 7.2$\pm$0.2, 49.9$\pm$8.0 mmHg and 38.3$\pm$8.8 mmHg, respectively. Venous pH, p$CO_2$, and pO$_2$, in Japanese macaques were 7.1$\pm$0.2, 56.4$\pm$5.3 mmHg and 40.1$\pm$9.3 mmHg, respectively. Those values in one rhesus macaque were 7.2, 61.1 mmHg and 24.9 mmHg, and in celebes macaque were 7.1, 54.3 mmHg and 31.8 mmHg, respectively.

We investigated the antioxidant effects of hederagenin 3-O-b-D-glucopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}3$)-a-L-rhamnopyranosyl($1{\rightarrow}2$)-a-L-arabinopyranoside (HDL) isolated from root bark of Ulmus davidiana on the activity of enzymes related to reactive oxygen species (ROS) in human osteosarcoma U2OS cells. Cobalt chloride ($CoCl_2$), a transition metal, was used as an inducer of oxidative stress, generating hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) via increasing xanthine oxidase (XO) activity. The increased levels of $H_2O_2$, XO, ferritin, and ferritin iron by $CoCl_2$ were diminished effectively by co-treatment with HDL in U2OS cells. Furthermore, decreased levels of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) by $CoCl_2$ were highly increased by co-treatment with HDL in U2OS cells; however, the levels of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) did not change. The increased contents of TBARS related to lipid peroxidation were significantly reduced by HDL in U2OS cells. The concentration of GSH changed in a pattern that went against regulated TBARS by $CoCl_2$ and HDL. We examined the expression of p53, $p21^{CIP1/WAF1}$, and $p27^{KIP1}$ proteins related to oxidative stress and cell cycle regulation. As a result, the expression of $p27^{KIP1}$ modulated by $CoCl_2$ was not changed by HDL. However, the expression of p53 and $p21^{CIP1/WAF}$ increased by $CoCl_2$ was reduced by HDL in U2OS cells. Together with alteration of p53 and $p21^{CIP1/WAF1}$ proteins, the accumulated cells at G1 phase by $CoCl_2$ was decreased by HDL in U2OS cells. Our data suggests that HDL inhibits $CoCl_2$-generated ROS in U2OS cells, providing potentially new antioxidant compounds that are isolated from natural products.
