When oral microorganisms were sampled from occlusal surfaces of caries and non-caries teeth, $3.43\times10^5$ CFU and $3.47\times10^3$ CFU of bacteria were counted on MSB agar plates, respectively. All the 20 colonies isolated from a caries surface were Streptococcus mutans but, only two of 20 colonies were identified as Streptococcus mutans by API test. S. mutans SM1 from caries tooth and S. mutans SM2 from non-caries tooth showed the same results except for $\alpha-galactosidase$ activity on sugar fermentation tests and biochemical tests. For the bacterial replication, both SM1 and SM2 were actively multiplicated at pH 5.5. And the viability of SM1 was high at 20% of sucrose, while that of SM2 was high at 5% of sucrose in the media. SM1 actively replicated at 16mM of $CaCl_2$, 160mM of KCl, and 6.4mM of $MgCl_2$, and the replication of SM2 was increased at 16mM of $CaCl_2$, 40mM of KCl, 6.4mM of $MgCl_2$. At 1mM of sodium bicarbonate and sodium phosphate, both bacteria were actively multiplicated. SM1 and SM2 were actively replicated at 1mM and 10mM of Tris, respectively. For potassium phosphate buffer, SM1 grew well proportionally to the concentration up to 100mM, while the growth of SM2 were inhibited by the increase of concentration. The 4.6 kb of gtf gene was amplified with a pair of primer, gtfB-F961 and gtfC-R5574 by polymerase chain reaction from the chromosomal DNA of SM1 and SM2. When 4.6kb bands were eluted from gel and were treated with restriction enzyme, EcoR I produced the same RFLP like 0.8kb and 3.8kb of DNA fragments for S. mutans GS-5, SM1 and SM2. By Hind III, the PCR products weren't digested for S. mutans GS-5 and SM1, but 3 fragments such as 2.4kb, 1.8kb and 400bp were examined for SM2. These results indicated the difference between gtf genes of SM1 and SM2. BamH I treatment showed 4 fragments for SM1 and SM2, while the 3 fragments for S. mutans GS-5. The PCR products were not digested by Kpn I, Sma I, Xho I and Pst I.

국내의 토양오염 공정시험방법에서는 Zn, Ni 추출시 산분해법에 가까운 방법을 사용하는 반면, Cd, Cu, Pb, $Cr^{6+}$ 추출시 0.1N HCl용액으로 산처리하여 1시간을 진탕한 후 이를 필터로 여과하여 분석용액을 추출하는 용출법을 사용하고 있다(환경부, 2001). 시료내에는 완충 물질이 존재하기 때문에 용출법 사용시 초기 pH 인 1(0.1N HCl)이 유지되지 않아 완충능력이 높은 토양의 경우 현재 국내 공정법상의 용출법이 중금속 오염정도를 추정하는데 적절치 않을 수 있다. (중략)

Pesticides from diffuse pollution sources adsorbed in suspended particles flow into surface water and threats to the public health. In this research, dechlorination constants of Atrazine by zero valent iron were measured with addition of buffer solution for simulating buffer capacity of sediment. When initial concentration of Atrazine was 10, 30, and 50 mg/L, their dechlorination was explained using the pseudo-first order reaction. Dechlorination constants $K_{obs}$ were $3.21{\times}10^{-2}/d$ in average.

The spectrophotometric determination of nictotine content with barbituric acid buffer solution was carry out. Absorption maximum for the proposed solution appeared at 505 nm and the absorbance remained stable for 15 minute at pH 4.2. Lambert-Beer law was proved to be applicable in the range of nicotine concentration of $7.5\mu{g}/ml$~$25\mu{g}/ml$. According to the analysis of nicotine contents in Burley and Flue-cured tobacco leaves by this method, the relative deviation was obtained to be 2.8% in comparision with the Griffith method.

The effects of synthetic and carrot carotene on the browning of polyphenolics extracted from potato for eliminating the effects of other components in potato which inhibit the browning of potato juice and the potato polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity were investigated. Total phenolics content in potato sample was 1.854mg/g D.W. and PPO activity was 100 unit. Delta 'L'value of polyphenolics extracted from potato decreased makedly, but that of potato with carrot decreased little by little. Potato with P-carotene showed a little decrease after 50 min. At the same time, polyphenolics extracted from potato were mixed with carotene extracted from carrot or with syntetic $\beta$-carotene. As the results, the delta 'L'value of the former increased but decreased similarly to the latter after 1 hour. The effects of enzyme and substrate concentration on the browning of PPO extracted from potato were investigated. Optimum enzyme concentration was 10% and optimum substrate concentration was 13.3% $\beta$-carotene concentration did not appear to influence significantly on PPO activity.

Calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$) immobilized with alginate was studied as buffer system to enhance the cultivation efficiency of Bifidobacterium longum (ATCC 15707) which is inhibited at low pH. To test the bufferring effect of the immobilized $CaCO_3$ beads, pH value in each modified trypticase-proteose peptone-yeast (TPY) broth which is adjusted to pH 4.0 with acetic acid, lactic acid and complex solution of acetic and lactic acid, 3:2 (M:M) was tested by concentration of $CaCO_3$ bead and reaction time. The bufferring effect of $CaCO_3$ bead became higher with increasing the amount of $CaCO_3$ bead in the acidic solution. The growth rate of bifidobacteria and bufferring effect were examined in relation to the amount of $CaCO_3$ bead and concentration of glucose in the modified TPY media. The growth rate of bifidobacteria and bufferring effect were increased with increasing the amount of $CaCO_3$ bead and concentration of glucose. Also, the exponential time of bifidobacteria became longer with increasing the amount of $CaCO_3$ bead and concentration of glucose in the modified TPY media. When we observed the growth rate of bifidobacteria by the method of pH-controlled culture and $CaCO_3$ buffer system, the $CaCO_3$ buffer system was more effective than that of pH-controlled culture. Therefore, this $CaCO_3$ buffer system may be useful as a method to enhance of the cultivation efficiency of bifidobacteria.

A biuret method by Johnson and Craney (1971) was slightly modified and applied to the multiple analysis of nitrogen in brown rice. The results were compared with those by the dye-binding method to see if the former be applicable to the determination of higher nitrogen content in rice. The nitrogen content of rice samples ranged from $1.2{\sim}2.0%$. The correlation between biuret absorbance and nitrogen content was highly significant; its correlation coefficient being 0.841. The biuret method, however, showed rather lower correlation coefficient in case of high nitrogen samples.

이온 영동법은 전기력의 도움으로 이온화된 물질의 신체조직내 침투를 증가시키는 술식으로서 전신적 부작용은 줄어드는 반면, 국소부위의 약물농도를 증가시킬 수 있다는 장점 때문에 효과적인 국소요법으로 인정받고 있다. 치의학 분야에서는 과민상아질의 치료를 위해 불소 이온영동법이 빈번히 이용되어져 왔으며, 국소마취제나 항바이러스 제재의 도포시에도이용되었다.또,이온 영동법에 의한 스테로이드 투여로 피부나 구강점막의 염증성 질환의 효과적 치료를 보고한 많은 문헌이 있으나, 이온영동법에 의한 스테로이드의 구강점막에의 침투량이나 분포에 관해서는 거의 소개된 바가 없는 실정이다. 본 연구는 방사선 동위원소가 부착된 dexamethasone을 이온영동법을 이용하여 가토의 협점막에 침투시킨후 자기방사선 술식에 의해 그 침투량과 분포를 대조군과 비교 평가하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 이온영동법은 단순 국소도포에 비해 dexamethasone과 0.1M 인산소다 완충용액의 혼합액(dexamethasone in 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer solution)의 가토 협점막 침투량을 증가시켰으며, 양극을 사용하였을 때 더 효과적이었다. 2. Dexamethasone과 0.1M 인산소다 완충용액의 혼합액 투여 4시가, 24시간후 까지도 양극 잉온영동법이 효과적이었으며 은입자의 감소는 투여 4시간부터 24시간 후 사이에 주로 일어났다. 3. 인산소다 완충용액의 첨가는 양극 및 음극에 의한 이온영동법 모두에 효과적이었으며, 양극에 가장 효과적이었고 단순도포군에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 4. 이온영동법에 의한 스테로이드 투여는 피부뿐만 아니라구강점막 염증성 병소의 효과적 치료술식으로 여거질 수 있다. 시와 maximal clenching시 사이의 치아 접촉시간에서도 유의한 상관관계를 보였다.

Virion captured reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (VC/RT-PCR) could detect plant virus quickly and accurately. In the VC/RT-PCR, no antibody is needed unlike immuno-captured RT-PCR (IC/RT-PCR) which had been improved method of RT-PCR for plant viruses, and virus nucleic acids can be obtained easily within 30minutes by property of polypropylene PCR tube which is hold and immobilized viral particles on its surface. For the virion capture of Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), the extraction buffer was tested. The optimum macerating buffer for TSWV was 0.01M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, containing 0.5% sodium sulfite. The viral crude sap was incubated for 30 min at $4^{\circ}C$. The virions in the PCR tubes were washed two times with 0.01M PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20. The washed virions were treated at $95^{\circ}C$ immediately for 1 min containing RNase free water and chilled quickly in the ice. Disclosed virions' RNAs by heat treatment were used for RT-PCR. Dilution end point of $10^{-5}$ from plant's crude sap infected with TSWV showed relatively higher detection sensitivity for VC/RT-PCR. During multiple detection using two or more primers, interference was arisen by interactions between primer-primer and plant species. The result of multiplex RT-PCR was influenced by combinations of primers and the kind of plant, and the optimum extraction buffer for the multiplex detection by VC/RT-PCR should be developed.

This study investigated the sensory characteristics of mixtures of high-intensity sweeteners for beverage and estimated the shelf life during storage. Sensory characteristics of mixtures of sweeteners (Aspartame/ Acesulfame-K, Aspartame/Sucralose and Acesulfame-K/Stevioside) were evaluated in aqueous (ranging from 90:10 to 50:50) and citrate buffer (ranging from 90:10 to 50:50) solutions. Significant synergistic effects were found in Aspartame/Acesulfame-K and Aspartame/Sucralose mixtures. No significant differences were found in other taste attributes (astringency, bitterness, metallic taste etc.). Aspartame/Acesulfame-K 5:5 solution showed the most acceptable sensory attributes. $Q_10$ values of Aspartame and Acesulfame-K mixture in citrate buffer (ranging from 90:10 to 50:50) solution were calculated from the temperature data (between $40^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$) determined by HPLC. $Q_10$ values were in the range of 2.01-2.25. Their shelf lives were calculated to be lengthened with increasing Acesulfame-K mixture ratio. Their shelf lives in Aspartame/Acesulfame-K 5:5 citrate buffer solution estimated at $20^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ were 178 days and 88 days, respectively.
