A bacterium which degrades efficiently synthetic detergents was isolated from the polluted waters, activated sludge of wastewater treatment plants or polluted soil. This bacterium showed considerably higher growth rate in the agar plate containing $2,000{\mu}g/ml$ of synthetic detergents than any other isolated strains, was identified as a Pseudomonas fluorescens or strains similar to it. The strain was named as a Pseudomonas fluorescens S1. Optimum pH and temperature for the growth of the Pseudomonas fluorescens S1 were pH 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. The strain was resistant to streptomycin and gentamycin, but sensitive to kanamycin. The strain was greatly resistant to zinc chloride, lead nitrate and copper sulfate, but unable to grow in the presence of relatively low concentrations of mercury chloride and silver nitrate. This strain utilized benzene, catechol, cyclohexane and xylene as a sole carbon source. The strain was well grown in the medium containing ABS 10,000${\mu}g$/ml. Degradation of ABS was 55% and 60% at 20${\mu}g$/ml and 100${\mu}g$/ml of ABS, respectively. Benzene ring was degraded 45% in 100${\mu}g$/ml of ABS. During the incubation of the strain in the medium containing ABS 100${\mu}g$/ml and COD 10,000${\mu}g$/ml for 4 days, degradation of ABS and COD were reduced to 40${\mu}g$/ml and 3,200${\mu}g$/ml, respectively. Total amino acid content of the Pseudomonas fluorescens S1 grown with 1,000${\mu}g$/ml of ABS was 115mg/g cell, whereas its content was decreased in the bacterium grown without synthetic detergent by 9.4%.

This study selected representative popular bowls used in daily life and laboratory and investigated the amount of residual surfactant resided in the bowls that were dish-washed. The bowls were washed by a scourer soaking 8 mL-detergent and then rinsed by flowing water for 7 or 15 seconds. One hundred milliliter of distilled water was placed in the washed-bowls to extract residual surfactant on the bowl surface and then analysed. All washed-bowls included residual surfactant after 7 second-rinsing. Residual surfactant concentrations in Ttukbaegi (earthen bowl), flying pan, glass bowl, and plastic bowl were 4.68, 1.22, 0.57, and 0.25 mg/L, respectively. However, the 15 second-rinsing showed that surfactant was detected only in Ttukbaegi and other bowls were clean. The results showed that surfactant would reside on the porous or rough surface of the bowl even after final rinsing. This study imply that all bowls and glasses should be throughly rinsed after detergent-washing to reduce continuos ingestion. Furthermore, residual surfactant in the glassware of laboratory may significantly affect experiment results.

To study the effect of a washing machine with silver nano technology on its detergency, the discoloring of the dyed clothes and the staining of standards adjacent fabrics were examined. As the laundry specimen, cotton fabric dyed with reactive dyes and Polyester fabric dyed with disperse dyes were chosen; and as the adjacent fabrics, undyed cotton. polyester and nylon fabrics were chosen. The colorfastness was evaluated after washing under conditions that those washing temperature, liquor ratio, detergency concentration and the type of water were varied. When the clothes were washed with the tap water contains silver ion, the deposition of silver compounds into the washed clothes was measured. As a results, after the washing in the various conditions, discoloring of the dyed clothes was not intense. The higher the washing temperature and the lower the liquor ratio, the larger the staining appeared on the white fabrics; especially for the white nylon fabrics. The concentration of detergent and the type of water affected hardly the colorfastness. After the repeated washing with the water contains silver, whiteness of the cotton and the nylon fabrics were lower than the result after the washing with the tap water, and a quantity of silver ions was found on the washed clothes.

To analyze the components of dense coat fractions associated with fat globule membrane, The membrane was treated with various concentrations of Triton X-100, a non-ionic detergent, and the composition of lipids associated to the detergent insoluble material was analyzed. The amount of protein, phospholipid, cholesterol and ganglioside in milk fat globule membrane was reduced consistently with increasing concentrations of Triton X-100. Butyrophilin (band 12), xanthine oxidase (band 3) and band 16 as constituents of insoluble coat materials was revealed after electrophorisis on SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl inositol and sphingomyelin were identified as the major phospholipids of the coat materials without selective concentration relative to the original membranes. Percentages of total phospholipid were not changed by any of the treatments. Fatty acids of total lipid were myristate, palmitate, stearate (major saturated acids), oleate and linoleate (major unsaturated acids). Cholesterol contents on a protein basis were slightly reduced with increasing concentrations of Triton X-100. Cholesterol adhered to protein more tightly than other constituents The contents of gangliosides was proportionally refuted with increasing concentration of Triton X-100.

In this study, we report on a simple, efficient method for obtaining penicillin G amidase (PGA) from recombinant Escherichia coli using a formulation mixed with detergent and lysozyme. Research was conducted on the extraction efficiency of PGA from the periplasmic space in cells in terms of the type of detergent, detergent concentration, pH, reaction time, and temperature of permeabilization. The extraction yield of PGA in the formulated surfactant/lysozyme treatment was increased by approximately (55-65 U/ml) in comparison with that in the single surfactant treatment. The released PGA solution was concentrated and exchanged with buffer using an ultrafiltration (U/F) system. The yields of diatomite filtration, membrane filtration (M/F), and U/F were 69.7%, 93.8%, and 77.3%, respectively. A total of 212 KU of PGA was recovered. At the 25-L culture scale, the overall yield of extraction using the mixed surfactant/lysozyme method was 49.2%. The specific activity of extracted PGA was 11 U/mg in protein. The concentrated PGA solution was immobilized on microporous silica beads without further purification of PGA. The total immobilization yield of PGA on the resin was 48.7%, while the enzyme activity was 101 U/g. The immobilized PGA was successfully used to produce 6-APA from penicillin G. Our results indicated that a simple extraction method from periplasmic space in E. coli may be used for the commercial scale production of ${\beta}-lactam$ antibiotics using immobilized PGA.

대전광역시의 도심하천인 갑천, 유등천, 대전천을 대상으로 하천수의 수리화학적 특성과 동위원소 특성을 분석하였다. 하천의 수리화학적 특성은 상류에서는 $Ca(Mg)-HCO_3$ 유형을 보이다가 도심권을 통과하면서 $Ca(Mg)-SO_4(Cl)$유형으로 전환되고 하류에서는 $Na(Ca)-HCO_3(Cl,{\;}SO_4)$ 유형으로 변화를 보였다. 이와 같은 화학적 유형의 변화는 자연적 영향보다는 인위적 오염물질의 유입에 의한 것으로 해석된다. 하천수의 전기전도도와 수리화학적 유형으로 보면 대전천보다는 유등천과 갑천이 비교적 좋은 수질특성을 보인다. 그러나 하수종말처리장에서 방류되는 방류가 합류되는 갑천하류부터는 수질이 급격하게 나빠진다. 하천수의 pH는 상류에서 중성을 보이다가 도심권을 지나면서 최고 pH 9.8정도의 알카리성을 보인다. 이는 아파트의 우수관을 통한세제 유입에 기인하는 것으로 보인다. 하천수의 ${\delta}^{13}l3C-HCO_3$ 관계에서 중탄산 함량의 증가에 따른 ${\delta}^{13}C$ 값의 증가는 하천수내 $CO_2$의 기원이 유기물에서 무기물의 영향이 커짐을 의미한다. ${\delta}^{34}S-SO_4$의 함량관계는 황산염의 농도가 증가함에 따라서 ${\delta}^{34}S$ 값은 낮아진다. 갑천, 유등천, 대전천의 순으로 황산염의 농도가 증가하고 ${\delta}^{34}S$ 값은 낮아지는 경향을 보인다. 이를 바탕으로 볼 때 갑천 중상류의 경우에는 황산염의 기원이 자연적 반응외 비료 등으로부터 유입된 것으로 보이며, 대전천의 경우에는 유기오염에 의한 황산염의 유입이 상당한 것으로 판단된다. 갑천하류는 하수종말처리장의 방류수의 영향이 큰 것으로 해석된다. 대전시 도심하천수의 수리화학적수질 개선을 위해서는 하수종말처리장의 방류수 기준의 강화, 아파트단지에서의 세제의 유입의 차단, 그리고 부분적인 오염물질의 유입을 차단하여야 할 것이다.

The present series of investigations have been undertaken to know the effective removal method of some pesticides, heavy metals and detergent when the doses of oxidants and coagulant were changed in the treatment process of drinking water containing organic material. Three pesticides, IBP, diazinon and CNP, were removed by about 68 to 100% by treatment of oxidant, $Cl_2$. Especially, diazinon was completely removed by treatment of $Cl_2$ and other oxidants such as $Cl_2,\;KMnO_4\;and\;O_3$. However, butachlor removal measured only 20.3 to 26.7% due to treatment of all oxidant used. A detergent, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, was effectively removed by treatment of $O_3$ but remained stable in the presence of other oxidants. The heavy metals of Cd, Pb, Cu and Zn in water were not affected by treatment of all oxidants used. By changing the concentration of humic matter and the dosage of coagulant, the removal of heavy metals was increased according to the increase of coagulant dosage, and decreased when increasing the concentration of humic matter, whereas the pesticides and detergent were not effectively removed.

In this study, a carboxylate-based anionic surfactant SLEC-3 was prepared from coconut oil and the structure was elucidated by using FT-IR, ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR analysis. Measurements of interfacial properties such as critical micelle concentration, static and dynamic surface tensions, emulsification index, and foam stability have shown that SLEC-3 is better in terms of interfacial activity and more effective in lowering interfacial free energy than those of SLES, which has been widely used as a conventional anionic surfactant in the detergent industry. Biodegradability, acute oral toxicity and dermal irritation tests also revealed that SLEC-3 surfactant possesses excellent mildness and low toxicity, indicating the potential applicability in detergents and cleaner products formulation.

To develop an antibacterial tempered glass for applications to various building facilities and household products, the antibacterial activity of domestic materials was investigated, and a tempered glass sample was produced with silver, copper, and zinc, having an antibacterial activity of 99% or more at a specific concentration. The measured antibacterial activity of the samples, in which silver, copper, and zinc were dispersed in ethylene glycol + glycerol, was more than 99%. Measurements of the thickness of the coated metal material by washing using a surface analyzer showed that the thickness decreased by less than 1% in various types of detergents, including water, but only approximately 10% in the alkaline detergents. To check the human safety of the samples, a cytotoxicity test was performed through an MTT assay; the samples showed no cytotoxicity. Finally, a Live/Dead kit or film adhesion method showed that the antibacterial activity of the prototype was more than 99%. Therefore, the high-functional antibacterial effect of tempered glass was developed using domestic materials and may be used in various products in the future.
