Rates of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by copper(Ⅱ)-Schiff base complexes were measured at various concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. Decomposition rates of hydrogen peroxide increased with increasing pH for CuⅡBSDT and CuⅡBSTP but then decreased with the same variation of the pH for CuⅡBSTT. A possible mechanism in accord with experimental results was proposed. The mechanism involves the deprotonation of copper(Ⅱ)-Schiff base complexes of hydrogen peroxide, followed by the formation of peroxo complexes at the rate-determining step.

The two deoxyribonucleotides, 5'-d(GAATTCCGGCCA) and 5'-d(CGAGCTGTC), were synthesized on disks of Whatmann chromatography paper (3MM) by the phosphite-triester method. The average yield of the dodecamer and the nonamer that was measured by trityl analysis is 76.1${\%}$ and 86.5${\%}$ respectively. Separation of the synthesized oligodeoxyribonucleotides were purified by HPLC. The two oligodeoxymers'bases were quantified by HPLC with snake venom phosphodiesterase and bacterial alkaline phosphatase. The numbers of bases were equal to the designed ones. The advantage of using a paper disk as a support allows us to synthesize many different oligodeoxyribenucleotides during one synthesis. This method is the most convenient synthetic technique to synthesize oligodeoxyribonucleotides easily and inexpensively in a relatively short time.

The newly devised column set is better than the conventional method with centrifuge, suction filter instruments for saturating of the salt and washing out the excess of salt for C. E. C. determination in soils. 1. The new method has a high significance with one suction filter set. 2. The new method deminishes the time and effort of analysis by one third. It can analyze many samples at a time. 3. It is able to analyze without expensive instruments (e. g. vaccum pump, shaker, suction apparatus and centrifuge).

Partial mitochondrial 16S rDNA and COI gene were amplified using PCR and sequenced for four species of oysters in Korea. Phylogenetic relationships among them were inferred from their aligned sequences by neighbor-joining method. The sequence comparison data of two mitochondrial genes showed that the genetic distinction between two oyster genera (Crassostreo and Ostrea) was obvious. Phylogenetic analysis based on the nucleotide sequences and A+T percentage of two genes indicates that C. gigas and C. nippona strongly formed a sister group and then C. ariakensis was clustered with the clade although that based on amino acid sequences of COI gene by neighbor-joining method represented different phylogenetic tree.

Replication control region of pSBK203, a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase conferring plasmid from Staphylococus aureus was cloned and its nucleotide sequence has been determined. Base sequence homology of this copy control region with those of plasmids belonging to pT181 family was obtained and analyzed. Copy number of four copy mutants derived by addtion or deletion of nucleotides in unique XbaI recognition site in copy control region of pSBK203 was also determined.

This study investigated the perceptions of the relationship among the three acid-base models of chemistry teachers. In addition, we examined how the perception of the relationship between models affected on the interpretation of concepts in each model. To investigate teachers' perceptions and interpretations, a questionnaire and interviews were conducted for 24 chemistry teachers. As results, most of the chemistry teachers recognized the three models as cumulative extension relationships. The perceptions were related to the contents of textbooks. The perception of the relationship of these models influenced on interpretations of the models' acid-base concept. In this study, we suggested that science teachers need to be aware of diverse models' roles.

The purpose of this study was to identify the problems faced by students in sub-microscopic representation of acid-base reactions. Herein, we selected 30 students of 12^th grade science classes, who had studied various acid-base models. In order to investigate the sub-microscopic representation ability of the students, we developed nine items related to various contexts, such as one type of solute and solvent, two types of solutes and solvent, cases with water as solvent or with nonaqueous solvents. For all items, we consistently observed lack of concept of chemical change. In context of aqueous and nonaqueous solutions, the frequency of lack of concept of chemical bonding was high if ammonia was the solute or solvent. Moreover, the frequency of lack of concept related to the degree of electrolytic dissociation was high. Therefore, chemistry teachers should understand that students' ability to sub-microscopic representation of acid-base reactions can be enhanced by analyzing the difficulties faced by the students in solving diverse acid-base problems.

In this work, the adsorption characteristics of the activated carbon treated with 30 wt. %HCl and 30 wt. % NaOH were investigated. The acid and base values were determined by Boehm's method and the surface area and porosity was measured by BET-method with $N_2$-adsorption. Also, the adsorption characteristics of the activated carbons treated with acid and base chemical solutions were investigated with $CO_2$ and $NH_3$-adsorption. From which, relatively different adsorption behaviors of the modified activated carbons were observed in the amounts of $CO_2$ and $NH_3$ adsorptions, even though the physical surface structures of the activated carbons, such as specific surface area, pore size and pore volume, were not significantly changed.

A gene coding for xylanase from alkali-tolerant Bacillus alcalophilus AX2000 was cloned into Escherichia coli $DH5\alpha$ using pUC19. Among 2,000 transformants, one transformant showed clear zone on the detection agar plate containing oat-spells xylan. Its recombinant plasmid, named pXTY99, was found to carry 7.0 kb insert DNA fragment. When the nucleotide sequence of the cloned xylanase gene (xynT) was determined, xynT gene was found to consist of 1,020 base-pair open reading frame coding for a poly-peptide of 340 amino acids with a deduced molecular weight of 40 kDa. The coding sequence was preceded by a putative ribosome binding site, and the transcription initiation signals. The deduced amino acid sequence of xylanase is similar to those of the xylanases from Bacillus sp. Nl37 and B. stearothermophilus 21 with $61\%$ and $59\%$ identical residues, respectively.

The location of the polyhedrin gene of Bmbyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus(BmNPV) was determined by using a cloned polyhedrin gene from the Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus(AcNPV) as a hybridization probe. The 7.4 Kb PstⅠ fragment DNA of Bm-NPV was cloned to plasmid pUC19 vector. A fragment containing this gene was mapped and sequenced in its entire polyhedrin reading frame. Nucleotide sequences comparison of the polyhedrin of the BmNPV to that of previously reported by Ⅰatrou(1985) revealed that the sequence varied in 10 base, Comparison of the amino acid sequence of the two structured gene revealed that coding sequence varied 74 valine to isoleucine, 76 aspargine to serine and 155 methionine to valine.
