The prcx.iuction of extracellular 1,4-${\beta}$-glucanase by Cellulomonas sp. CS1-1 on microcrystalline cellulose, sigmacell was maximal after 5-day cultivation as 280 units/mL, which was three times higher than the level produced on carboxymethyl cellulose. A carboxymethyl cellulase containing the carbohydrate of 8.2% was purified from the culture filtrate by successive procedures of column chromatographies. Purification factor was calculated as 22-folds with the specific carboxymethyl cellulase activity of 31.9 units/mg. The molecular weight and isoelectric point of the purified enzyme were 54,000 and pI 5.4, respectively. The optimal pH and temperature were 6.0 and $45^{\circ}C$, and the enzyme was stable between pH 6.5 and 7.5 and below $50^{\circ}C$. The estimated Km and Vmax were 10 mg/mL and $6.25{\mu}mol/min$ for carboxymethyl cellulose and 30.3 mg/mL and $2.85{\mu}mol/min$ for sigmacell, respectively. The enzyme was partially inhibited by $Ag^+$, $Zn^{+{+}}$, $Fe^{+{+}}$ and EDTA, while completely inhibited by $Cd^{+{+}}$ and $Hg^{+{+}}$ at 1 mM concentration.

We studied the aquation reaction of s-cis-$[Co(eee)Cl_2]^+$ and s-cis-$[Co(eee)Br_2]^+$ complex ions under the various temperatures and pressures. In these complexes eee is $NH_2-CH_2CH_2-S-CH_2CH_2-NH_2$. The rate law of the aquation reactions of these two complexes obeys $Rate = k_{obsd}$[CO(III)], where rate constants of s-cis-$Co(eee)Cl_2]^+$ and s-cis-$[Co(eee)Br_2]^+$ respectively are $0.687{\times}10^{-4}$ $sec^{-1}$ and $4.10{\times}10^{-4}$ $sec^{-1}$ in condition of 0.1M $HClO_4\;and\;40^{\circ}C$. In the same condition, the activation entropies of s-cis-[Co(eee)$Cl_2$]+ and s-cis-(Co(eee)Br_2$]+ complexes respectively are -15.5 eu and -7.54eu, and the activation volumes are $-4.6cm^3mole^{-1}$ and $-4.2cm^3mole^{-1}$. From these data, we could infer the mechanism of the aquation reaction as the interchange dissociation (Id) mechanism.

A supercritical fluid process, called aerosol solvent extraction system(ASES), is especially suitable to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries due to its environmentally-friendly, non-toxic and residual solvent-free properties. In particular, the application of the ASES process to the processing of thermo-labile bioactive compounds has received attention of many scientists and engineers because of its low-temperature operating conditions. Unstable substances such as Vitamin-C and Vitamin-A can be effectively protected from degradation during the preparation process, because the ASES process is free from oxygen and moisture. In this study, Vitamin-C was formulated with 2-hydroxypropyl-${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (HP-${\beta$-CD) for enhancement of Vitamin-C stability and bioavailability using the ASES process. To investigate the influence of the preparation process on the stability of Vitamin-C, Vitamin-C/HP-${\beta}$-CD inclusion complexes were prepared using both conventional solvent evaporation method and ASES process, and stored in a 50 mM phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.0 at $25^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. From the experimental results, the stability of the Vitamin-C/HP-${\beta}$-CD inclusion complex prepared from the ASES process was found to be much higher than that of pure Vitamin-C and the Vitamin-C/HP-${\beta}$-CD inclusion complex prepared by the solvent evaporation method. The stability of Vitamin-C was observed to increase with the decrease of temperature at a constant pressure or with the increase of pressure at a constant temperature.

Adsorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of a brilliant green from aqueous solutions at various initial dye concentration (10~30 mg/L), contact time (1~24 h) and temperature (298~318 K) on zeolite were studied in a batch mode operation. The equilibrium adsorption values were analyzed by Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich model. The results indicate that Langmuir and Freundlich model provides the best correlation of the experimental data. Base on the estimated values of Langmuir dimensionless separation factor ($R_L=0.041{\sim}0.057$) and Freundlich constant (1/n=0.30~0.47), this process could be employed as effective treatment method. calculated values of adsorption energy by Dubinin-Radushkevich model were 1.564~1.857 kJ/mol corresponding to physical adsorption. The adsorption kinetics of brilliant green were best described by the pseudo second-order rate model and followed by intraparticle diffusion model. Thermodynamic parameters such as activation energy, free energy, enthalpy and entropy were calculated to estimate nature of adsorption. negative Gibbs free energy (-10.3~-11.4 kJ/mol), positive enthalpy change (49.48 kJ/mol) and Arrehenius activation energy (27.05 kJ/mol) indicates that the adsorption is spontaneous, endothermic and physical adsorption process, respectively.

A CdS single crystal was grown by using sublimation method. Lattice constants, $a_{o}$ and $c_{o}$, obtained by using extrapolation were $4.131{\underline{8}}{\AA}$ and $6.712{\underline{2}}{\AA}$, respectively. The carrier density was${\sim}10^{23}m^{-3}$ and the mobility was $2.93{\times}10^{-2}m^{2}$/V sec from measured Hall data at room temperature. The mobility has a increasing tendency in proportion to $T^{1/2}$ from 33 K to 150 K and a decreasing tendency in proportion to $T^{-2}$ from 180 K to room temperature. The short wavelength band peak measured from photocurrent was due to intrinsic transition, and the energy value of this peak was equal to the energy band gap of CdS photoconductor.

To study the effect of cold water irrigation at the reproductive growth stage of rice plants on several growth characters related to source and sink and nutrient uptake, the present experiment was carried out under the different conditions of water temperature and water depth. Deep irrigation with normal temperature water increased culm length, panicle length and panicle exsertion but with cold water resulted adversely. Most sensi-tive response in 5 cm water-depth appeared at reduction division stage and in 20 cm depth at panicle formation stage. Secondary branches and spikelets were increased in number by deep irrigation with normal temperature water, but decreased and degenerated by deep irrigation with cold water at panicle formation stage resulting in high spikelet sterility and low grain filling. Deep irrigation with normal temperature water increased the contents of total nitrogen, phosphate, potassium and silicate in leaf blades, branches and chaff. However, cold water irrigation reduced the uptake of phosphate, potassium and silicate except nitrogen particularly in deep irrigation. Ratios of phosphate, potassium and silicate to total nitrogen content were decreased by cold water irrigation. Branches seemed to have higher requirements for phosphate, potassium and silicate than leaf blades and chaff. Silicate-to-total nitrogen ratio in leaf blades, branches and chaff had significant correlations with yield showing closer relationship between yield and the ratio of silicate to total nitrogen in branches in particu-lar.

The characteristics of fluorine removal from wastewater have been investigated by precipitation method using calcium as a precipitant for the purpose of the reuse of treated wastewater. In the conditions of 10 mM of the initial concentration of fluorine and pH 4, the precipitation of fluorine was rapidly progressed within a few minutes after the precipitant was added and the precipitation of fluorine was observed to follow a second order reaction. Also, as the addition of precipitant was increased, the reaction rate constant of fluorine precipitation was found to rise. Postulating that the maximum fluorine removal was attained at pH 4, about 70% of fluorine was precipitated compared with the maximum removal when 10 times of equivalent amount of calcium was employed at pH 2 and the fluorine removal was about 96% compared with its maximum value at pH 3 under the same addition of precipitant. The fluorine precipitation reaction was found to be endothermic and the coexistence of $SiF_6{^{2-}}$ with fluorine resulted in its less removal. Finally, the isoelectric point of the precipitate was examined to be ca. pH 5.

Thermal oxidation and plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of tantalum oxide thin films on p-type (100) Si substrates were studied to examine the dielectric nature of T$a_2O_5$ as a Al/T$a_2O_5$/p-Si capacitor. Microstructure and dielectric properties of the capacitors were investigated by XRD, AES, high frequency C-V analyzer, I-V meter and TEM. XRD analysis showed that the structure of T$a_2O_5$ films were amorphous, but the films were crystallized to hexagonal $\delta$-T$a_2O_5$ by 65$0^{\circ}C$ thermal oxidation treatment. It was found that the stoichiometry of the films was more or less close to 2 : 5. Leakage current density and relative dielectric constant of thermal oxidation T$a_2O_5$ film at 60$0^{\circ}C$ was 5.0${ imes}10^{-6}$/A/c$m^2 and 31.5, respectively. In the case of PECVD T$a_2O_5$film deposited at 0.47W/c$m^2 they were 2.5${ imes}10^{-5}$/A/$ extrm{cm}^2$ and 24.0, respectively. The morphology of the films and interfaces were investigated by TEM.

The method for the measurement of texture hardening phenomena, which is the limiting factor of shelf-life of Yaksik in the market, was established. The changes in the hardening rate by the processing conditions and the storage temperature and time were examined. The standard sample made by traditional method could be kept at room temperature$(20{\circ}C)$ for 3 days and the multipuncture force measured at the end of marketable quality was 700g. The hardening rate increased rapidly by storing at $5^{\circ}C$ and the ratio of hardening rate constants between room temperature and $5^{\circ}C$ storage reached to $1.3{\sim}3.3$ depending on the processing condition. The largest ratio was observed by the sample made from pressure cooker. The addition of corn syrup retarded the hardening rate. The pressure cooking resulted in making too soft product, which diminished the panel preference, but it extend the shelf-life when products were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ microwave cooking resulted in making too hard texture which was not acceptable. The overall quality preference of Yaksik was decided by the textural preference and the latter showed significant inverse correlation with the maximum force of multipuncture test. Therefore, it was concluded that multipuncture test was useful for the measurement of the quality of Yaksik.
