  • This investigation was undertaken to establish the ultrastructural organization of the retina in domestic fowl (Gallus domesticus B.) comparing with the ultrastructure that has been indicated in other Aves by several workers. The electron microscope observations were made on selected segments of retinal tissue prefixed for 2 hrs in 1.25% glutaraldehyde buffered with 0.2 M cacodylate at pH 7.2 and then postfixed in cold 1% osmium tetroxide in 0.4 M cacodylate buffer for 2 hrs. After postfixation, tissues were dehydrated in alcohol series, embedded in Epon 812 mixture from propylene oxide and stained with saturated uranyl acetate and $Pb(NO_3)_2$ solution. Specimens were examined with a Hitachi HS-7S electron microscope. The pigment epithelia cells contain numerous mitochondria with prominent dense granules and several changeful spaped Golgi bodies. The internal fine structure of the receptor outer segments revealed the characteristic stacks or arrays of bimembranous disks. The ellipsoid outer portion of the cone inner segments is composed of a tightly packed mass of extraordinarily large mitochondria. The outer limiting membrane is seen to contain many junctional complexes, the fibrillar material of which is electron-dense.

  • The optimum synthetic conditions of poly(p-phenylphenol) by horseradish peroxidase in dioxane:water (80:20 v/v) mixtures were studied. The stability against thermal degradation and structural properties of the synthesized phenolic resins were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), respectively. The synthetic yield of poly(p-phenylphenol) increased upon the increase of the amount of enzyme up to 0.25 mg HRP/mL, then leveled off for further increase of the enzyme usage. When sodium acetate (100 mM, pH 4~6) and sodium phosphate (100 mM, pH 7~9) were used as the buffering salts for the aqueous component (20% v/v), the synthetic yield of the resin increased at higher pH of the aqueous buffer. But when the pHs of the aqueous buffer were 6 and 9, the synthetic yield strongly depended on the types of the buffering salts; if sodium phosphate was used instead of sodium acetate at pH 6, the yield decreased by about 15% and if sodium bicarbonate was used instead of sodium phosphate, the yield decreased by almost 20%. When the pH range of the aqueous buffer was from 4 to 7, the addition of a radical mediator, 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS), up to 2 mM improved the synthetic yield of the resin by about 10%. TGA experiments revealed that the thermal stability of the resin synthesized in dioxane:water (100 mM sodium phosphate, pH 9) (80:20 v/v) was high having the char yield of 47% upon the heating at $800^{\circ}C$. DCS results showed that the structures of the polymers synthesized in acidic aqueous buffers were different from those of the polymers synthesized in the basic aqueous buffers. However, all the synthesized resins were found to have the property of the thermosetting resins.

  • The enantiomers of the bronchodilator terbutaline were separated by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatograhy after derivatization with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-\beta-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate(GITC) reagent. The derivatization proceeded quantitatively within 1 h at room temperature. The corresponding diastereomeric thiourea derivatives were well resolved on an ODS column with acetonitrile-acetate buffer as a mobile phase. Elution orders of the diastereomers were confirmed by derivatization of R-(-)-terbutaline and S-(+)-terbutaline which were collected by semi-preparative chiral HPLC using Sumichiral OA-4700 column. The native fluorescence of terbutaline was quenched by derivatization with GITC. The detection limit was 25ng when monitored at UV 278 nm.

  • A lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia was immobilized onto single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in two different ways in each of two solvent systems (buffer and ionic liquid). The most efficient immobilization was achieved in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, BMIM-$BF_4$). In this procedure, carbon nanotubes were first functionalized noncovalently with 1-pyrenebutyric acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester and then subject to the coupling reaction with the lipase in ionic liquid. The resulting immobilized enzyme displayed the highest activity in the transesterification of 1-phenylethyl alcohol in the presence of vinyl acetate in toluene.

  • The purpose of this study was to investgate dyeing, moradnting properties and colorfastness activities of silk, polyamide, acetate treated black soybean extracts. The color of extract by buffer solution (pH=1) red, but the higher pH of extracted black soybean solution the paler of color strength. Black soybean extracts was approved anthocyanin of 3type(Delphinidin3-glucoside, Cyanidin 3-glucoside, Petunidin 3-glucoside) by chemiclal analysis. This anthocynin, in acid condition, is oxinium structure (red color, soluable) but, in alkali condition quinoid structure(dark brown, in soluable). The optimum dyeing condition of black soybean anthocynin was 10min at $30^{\circ}C$, pH -1. Colorfastness to washing and light showed generally low but crocking fastness was excellent.

  • Urease was immobilized with calcium alginate by entrapment method in the form of spherical beads and stored in Tris/acetate buffer (pH 7.3) at $4^{\circ}C$. Urease immobilized at different concentration of alginate beads (3%, 4% and 5%) showed higher apparent $K_{m}$ values than the soluble urease. Furthermore, $K_{m}$ has been shown to be corelated with effective diffusion coefficient (De) at different concentration of alginate gel. The present study showed that diffusion and reaction contribute to control the overall rate.

  • A stereospecific HPLC method has been developed for the resolution of the enantiomers of salbutamol in human urine. After solid-phase extraction and derivatization with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate, the diastereomeric derivatives were resolved (Rs=1.83) on $5{\mu}m$ octadecylsilan column using 35% acetonitrile in 0.05M ammonium acetate buffer (pH=6) as a mobile phase with electrochemical detection. The diastereomeric derivatives were formed within 30 min. The detection limit of each enantiomer was 20 ng/ml (S/N=3).

  • Microorganisms capable of producing ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AsA2P) from ascorbic acid (AsA) and pyrophosphate (PPi) were screened from the culture collection of this laboratory. Among them, Cellulomonas sp. AP-7 showed the highest productivity of AsA2P. The optimal conditions for the production of AsA2P from AsA and PPi with cell-free extract as an enzyme source were investigated. The reaction mixture for the maximal production of AsA2P consisted of 21 g protein of cell-free extract per liter as the enzyme source, 250 mM AsA, 200 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 150 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.5). By using this reaction mixture, 31.9 mM of AsA2P, which corresponded to a 12.76% yield based on AsA, was produced after incubation of 48 hr at 33$\circ$C.

  • Washed mycelia of Aspergillus nidulans FGSC159 were incubated in CMC minimal liquid medium and the culture filtrate which contained induced extracellular cellulase was fractionated by a three-step procedure including chromatography on Bio-Gel P-150, chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and chromatography on Sephadex G-100. Three CMCase components ; F-I-Ia, F-I-Ib and F-II-Ia were prepared. No enzyme activity toward avicel could be detected in these components. Similarly, there was no ${\beta}-glucosidase$ activity. pH-optima of the three components were all 5.0 in acetate buffer. Temperature-optima for the activities of F-I-Ia, F-Ib and F-II-Ia were $45^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$, respectively. F-II-Ia was shown to be more thermostable than the other two components. F-II-Ia was proved to have quite a different substrate specificity and action property and action property from those of F-I-Ia and F-I-Ib by product analysis on liquid chromatography.
