Synthesis of zeolite 4A was carried out to optimize the nanoparticle synthesis process using statistical experimental design method. The zeolite 4A was synthesized by controlling the concentration of the silicon precursor, sodium metasilicate (SMS), and characterized by XRD, SEM and nitrogen adsorption. In particular, the property of zeolite 4A can be determined by XRD analysis. Using the general factor analysis in the design of experiments, we analyzed main effects and interactions according to the reactor, reaction temperature and reaction time. The optimum reaction condition for the synthesis of zeolite 4A crystallinity was using an autoclave for 3 hours at $110^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the optimal synthesis conditions of zeolite 4A with various crystallinity using Ludox as a silicon precursor were presented of what using both the surface and contour plot.

Maillard reaction products (MRPs) added into a culture and the resultant bacterial growth were investigated using response surface methodology. The coefficients of determination $(R^{2})$ of response surface regression equations for bacteria were 0.9544 and 0.9578 in Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus natto, respectively. The MRPs produced at higher reaction temperature and for longer reaction time showed greater antimicrobial effect for Bacillus subtilis. Especially, the MRPs produced at temperature above $150^{\circ}C$ for 8 to 12 hrs showed the strongest antimicrobial effect. The MRPs produced at lower reaction temperature and for shorter reaction time showed greater microbial growth effect for Bacillus natto, but those produced at the reaction temperature higher than $160^{\circ}C$ showed the greatest antimicrobial effect. In the ridge analysis, the growth of Bacillus subtilis was the most significantly inhibited in the presence of MRPs prepared at $159.10^{\circ}C$ and pH 12.21 for 9.67 hrs, and the growth of Bacillus natto was the most significantly inhibited in the presence of MRPs prepared at $169.94^{\circ}C$ and pH 9.66 for 9.22 hrs.

Validation and Standardization of neurobehavioral instrument in Korean occupational setting has not been studied ever. This study tried to validate the newly developed computerized psychomotor tests, Neurobehavioral Tests for Occupational Screening (NTOS). Male patients with Parkinson's disease(n=12) and male workers who never exposed to occupational neurotoxic materials and didn't have neurologic disease(n=21), performed some tests from NTOS; simple reaction time, choice reaction time(2 choice), and finger tapping(both hands). In simple analysis, difference between patient group and worker group was significantly great. Adjusted for age and education years, simple reaction time and finger tapping(both hand) were statistically significantly different between two groups(p<.05). Choice reaction time was also different(p<.1) but error frequency of choice reaction time test was not. Generally, this results showed NTOS could detect impairment of psychomotor function. But insensitive results of choice reaction time was partly due to small sample size and confounding variables and so required future study and refinement at improvement of NTOS.

A method for depolymerization of PET by catalyzed glycolysis with an excess ethylene glycol(EG) to recover bis-hydroxyethyl terephthalate(BHET) was investigated. The product was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). Effects of operation variables such as reaction temperature, reaction time, EG/PET weight ratio were examined and kinetics of the glycolysis was studied. High temperature increases the rate of depolymerization and the yield of BHET. But, repolymerization rate was also high at too high temperature and the yield at $250^{\circ}C$ was shown to be lower than that at $230^{\circ}C$. First order reaction model was proposed to describe the glycolysis reaction. Activation energies for the reaction were obtained to be 37.8 kJ/mol above $210^{\circ}C$ and 149.6 kJ/mol below $210^{\circ}C$, which shows the glycolysis reaction is a multiple reaction. A maximum yield of BHET of 71% was achieved at a reaction temperature of $230^{\circ}C$ for 6 hr with an EG/PET weight ratio 4.

Studies on the changes in rheological properties, molecular weight distribution and dextran yield after being reacted in lO%(w/w) sucrose concentration were performed with crude dextransucrase produced from Leuconostoc mesenteroides isolated from Sikhae. The reaction rate of dextran formation was monitored by sugar analysis with HPLC and by the changes in apparent viscosity. According to the periodate oxidation test, the dextran produced in this experiment was estimated to have 89% $\alpha$-(1->6) main linkages and 11% $\alpha$-(1->) side linkages. The rheological properties of the dextran solution formed changed with reaction time, and it was related to the changes in molecular weight distribution of dextran as determined by GPC analysis. As the reaction proceeded, the rheological behavior changed from Newtonian to non-Newtonian, showing Binghampseudoplastic and thixothropic flow behavior. The apparent viscosity of dextran formed solution increased with increasing reaction time, reached a maximum value of 2680 cP ($\gamma$=$33.75s^{-1}$, $25^{\circ}C$) by enzyme reaction for 8 hours, and then decreased. The temperature dependency of dextran formed solutions was well expressed by the Arrhenius equation and the activation energy reached a maximum value of 1.69 kcal/mole by enzyme reaction for 8 hours.

Malic acid-catalyzed transformation has been developed to produce ginsenoside Rg3 which is increasingly in demand as a functional ingredient. The optimization of the conversion of red ginseng saponin (RGS) to ginsenoside Rg3 by acid catalyzed transformation was carried out using Box-Behnken design (BBD) based on Response Surface Analysis (RSM). The main independent variables were malic acid concentration, temperature, and reaction time. Conversion of ginsenoside Rg3 was performed according to BBD model and optimization conditions were analyzed. The concentration of the converted ginsenoside Rg3 ranged from 1.548 mg/L to 4.558 mg/L, and the highest production was obtained under the condition of reacting 1% malic acid, 50 ℃ and 9h. Consequently, The independent variables affecting the production of ginsenoside Rg3 were identified in the following order: malic acid concentration, reaction time and temperature. In addition, it was confirmed that the interaction between malic acid concentration and reaction time had a greater influence than the temperature.

Response surface methodology was used to optimize production conditions of monoacylglycerol (MAG) and diacylglycerols (DAG) from corn oil by enzymic glycerolysis. Contents of $1,3-DAG\;(Y_1),\;1,2-DAG\;(Y_2),\;total\;DAG\;(Y_3),\;MAG\;(Y_4)$, and total $DAG+MAG\;(Y_5)$ were obtained. Conditions were optimized using central composite design with incubation temperature $(35-75^{\circ}C,\;X_1)$, incubation time (1-11 hr, $X_2$), and amount of hexane added (0-2 mL, $X_3$) as three variables. Content of 1,3-DAG was maximized by 20.43 area% at incubation temperature of $44.92^{\circ}C$, incubation time of 10.24 hr, and hexane content of 1.16 mL, whereas that of 1,2-DAG (26.78 area%) was maximized at $56.32^{\circ}C$, 6.95 hr, and 1.04 mL, respectively. Predicted maximum total DAG content was 45.09 area% at $53.82^{\circ}C$, 8.03 hr, and 1.08 mL, while production conditions of MAG (9.57 arae%) were $64.14^{\circ}C$, 7.00 hr, and 0.13 mL. At variables of $54.07^{\circ}C$, 7.98 hr, and 1.02 mL, maximum content of total DAG+MAG predicted by RSM was 53.54 area%.
