The in vitro activities of 2,2'-dipyridyl, an iron-chelator, against clinical isolates of Trichomonas vaginalis, Candida albicans, and Gardnerella vaginalis was evaluated and compared with those of four other vaginal suppositories, ornidazole, clotrimazole, povidone-iodine, and $Cenacert^{\circledR}$ (Methylbezethonium Chloride mixed with 9-aminoacrydine undecylenate and hydrochloric acid N-myristyl-3-hydroxy butyl amine). The 2,2'-dipyridyl killed T. vaginalis and G. vaginalis at concentrations of $410\;{\mu}g/ml$ and $205\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively, however, ths agent was less active against C. albicans (80% of which was inhiited at $410\;{\mu}g/ml$). The inhibition of these three pathogens by 2,2'-dipyridyl was similar to clotrimazole. In addition, the effect of 2,2'-dipyridyl on the ultrastructure of T. vaginalis, C. albicans, an G. vaginalis was examined. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that 2,2'-dipyridyl induced modifications of the cellular contents and cell envolope concumitant with the degradation of the three pathogens. These results suggest that 2,2'-dipyridyl has an inhibitory effect on C. albicans and G. vaginalis, as well as T. vaginalis.

A PVC membrane electrodes based on Fe(II)-dipyridyl-mefenamic acid ternary complex as ion exchanger were prepared using o-nitrophenyl octyl ether as a plasticizer. The 2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,4'-dipyridyl and 4,4'-dipyridyl-2,2'-dipyridyl were used as dipyridyl derivative ligand. The electrode dxhibits a fast stable and linear response for $10^{-5}-10^{-3}mol/L$ mefenamate with an anionic slope of -55.98, -49.47, -59.35mV/decade in pH 8.9 borate buffer solution respectively. Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acid salts.

This study was conducted to select the media for the formalin killed vaccine (FKC) production of Vibrio harveyi and its application for olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. For this, we have investigated the immune effects of Vibrio harveyi FKC vaccines grown in 3 different media i.e. Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB), TSB containing 2-2'-dipyridyl (TSB-D), Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHIB) on the production of agglutinating antibody and protection against Vibrio harveyi in olive flounder. Additionally, a dual vaccine was prepared by combining Streptococcus parauberis vaccine to V. harveyi vaccine and its efficacy was also analyzed with the determination of optimal administration dosage. Consequently, olive flounder immunized with FKC grown in TSB-D showed the same protection with the vaccine grown in BHIB and the optimal dose of the vaccine was 10mg/kg of body weight. Indeed the dual vaccine showed higher agglutination titer and protection than control fish. The optimal dose for dual vaccine was 10mg/kg body weight for each of two vaccines.

The immunogenicity of Edwardsiella tarda was surveyed under two different culture conditions. In SDS-PAGE patterns of the outer membrane proteins (OMPs) extracts of E. tarda, grown under Trypic soy broth (TSB) and TSB supplemented iron chelate 2,2‘-dipyridyl iron-restricted condition, were examined. The results showed that the iron-regulated outer membrane protein (IROMPs) with molecular masses of 68 and 73 kDa were expressed by bacteria grown in iron-chelate TSB.The pathogenicity was examined by intraperitoneal injection with live E. tarda grown under TSB, iron-chelate TSB and iron-supplemented TSB. The result of pathogenicity test showed significantly high mortality in the group of live E. tarda grown under iron-chelate TSB.The effect of formalin killed cell (FKC) of TSB cultured bacteria and 2,2'-dipyridyl FKC (DP-FKC) of cultured bacteria on the iron-chelate TSB on the development of protective immunity in olive flounder was studied. The level of immune response was evaluated with immunized fish at 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks after immunization. The numbers of specific antibody secreting cells (SASCs) showed significantly increased level at 2 week after immunization in each group. The agglutination titre of immunized fish was significantly high level at 3 weeks after immunization.The level of protection in olive flounder at 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks after vaccination was examined by intraperitoneal challenge test with live E. tarda.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of compositional ratio of additives, such as potassium ferrocyanide, aminoacetic acid (=glycine) and 2,2'-dipyridyl, on the physical properties of copper layer deposited by environment-friendly electroless plating reaction. The highest plating rate of copper layer, $9.5mg{\cdot}cm^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1}$, was obtained at 20 mg/L of potassium ferrocyanide and 0.01 mol/L of aminoacetic acid, which coincided with the change in the hardness of the copper layer. In the additives used in this study, potassium ferrocyanide was considered to improve the plating rate, aminoacetic acid increased the hardness value of deposited films and 2,2'-dipyridyl enhanced the brightness of copper deposited films.

The Mo(V) $di-{\mu}-oxo$ type $[Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L]Cl_2$ complexes(L: 4,4'-Diphenyl-2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,4'-Dimethyl-2,2'-dipyridyl, 4,7-Diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) have been prepared by the reaction of $[Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_6]^{2+}$ with a series of chelate ligands. These complexes are completed by two terminal oxygens arranged trans to one another and each ligand forms a chelate types. In $Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L$ two $H_2O$ coordinated at trans site of terminal oxgens. The prepared complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, electronic spectra, $^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, and thermal analysis(TG-DTA). In the potential range -0.00V to -1.00V at scan rate of $50mVs^{-1}$, a cathodic peak at -0.83V ${\sim}$ -0.88V (vs SCE) and an anodic peak at -0.54V ${\sim}$ -0.88V (vs SCE) have been observed in aquous solution. The ratio of the cathodic to anodic current(Ipc/Ipa) is almost 2, we infer that redox is irreversible as dimer forms broken.

Microbiological conversion of sterols to 17-ketosteroids has been recongnized as a source for commerical preparation of steroidal drugs. For the purpose of strain development, we isolated microorganisms through enrichment culture method and identified an isolate strain. The strain was closely related to Brevibacterium ergthrogenes. The optimal conditions for 1, 4-androstadiene-3, 17-dione (ADD) formation were as follows; pH 7.4, lactose 0.2%, beef extract 0.2%, bentonite 0.5% in the chlolesterol fermentation medium. Maximum production was obtained with the addition of $\alpha$, $\alpha$'-dipyridyl (1 mM, final conc.) at 17-20 hours after incubation.

Inhibition of over-oxidation of prednisolone in the fermentation has been studied by using vegetative cells as enzyme source. firstly, A. simplex (ATCC 6946) was demonst.ated to degrade p.ednisolone in the vegetative culture of the microorganism. Over 72％ of hydrocortisone was transformed into prednisoloneby 3 hours of the fermentation. However, the prednisolone produced was considerably oxidized forming over-oxidation product in 8hours of fermentation period with the intact cells. Secondly, in order to depress the over-oxidation and the breakdown of the steroid skeleton of prednisolone, chelating agents such as $\alpha$$\alpha$'-dipyridyl, o-phenanthroline and 8-hydroxyruinoline were added to the fermentation broth. Conseauently, the breakdown of prednisolone by the iutact cells was able to be remarkably retatded and an intermediate regarded as an oxidized product derived from prednisolone was accumulated, by the addition of $\alpha$$\alpha$'-dipytidyl in the fermentation.
