We have used FT-IR spectra to explain the effects of hydrogen bonding between chitosan and polycaprolactam (PA6). A dynamic mechanical analysis study suggested that the optimum chitosan and PA6 miscibility under the conditions of this experiment were obtained at a blending ratio of 40:60. We studied the thermal degradation of chitosan blended with PA6 (chitosan/PA6) by thermogravimetric analysis and kinetic analysis (by the Ozawa method). Dry chitosan and PA6 exhibited a single stage of thermal degradation and chitosan/PA6 blends having> 20 wt% PA6 exhibited at least two stages of degradation. In chitosan/PA6 blends, chitosan underwent the first stage of thermal degradation; the second stage proceeded at a temperature lower than that of PA6, because the decomposition product of chitosan accelerated the degradation of PA6. The activation energies of the blends were between 130 and 165 kJ/mol, which are also lower than that of PA6.

The studies on activated carbon prepared from walnut shell and groundnut shell were undertaken to ascertain the effect of initial state of precursor and activation process on the development of porosity in the resulting activated carbon. Walnut shell based carbon shows the presence of cellular pores while Groundnut shell based carbon shows fibrillar pore structure. The adsorption parameters, characterization of product and scanning electron microscopic studies carried out showed the presence of mainly Micro, Meso and Macro porosity in carbon prepared from Walnut shell while mainly micro porosity was observed in Groundnut shell based activated carbon. An interrelationship between the adsorption efficiency and porosity in terms of quality control parameters, for before and after activation, was validated through the scanning electron microscopic data.

This study was preformed by measuring the minimum ignition temperature of MBS according to the change of sample vessel size and the minimum ignition temperature of MBS dust cloud The minimum ignition temperature of MBS product decreased as the vessel size was large, and it was obtained in the range from $120.5^{\circ}C$ to $94.5^{\circ}C$ and the apparent activation energy was obtained with 32.94Kcal/mol. The minimum ignition temperature of MBS dust cloud was measured by using Godbert-Greenwald furnace and it was obtained at $407^{\circ}C$ with the sample of 0.4g in the air and the ignition of dust cloud was not occurred below 13% oxygen concentration.

Replacement of the Asp-84 residue of the deoxyguanosine kinase subunit of the tandem deoxyadenosine kinase/deoxyguanosine kinase (dAK/dGK) from Lactobacillus acidophilus R-26 by Ala, Asn, or Glu produced increased $K_m$ values for deoxyguanosine on dGK. However, it did not seem to affect the binding of Mg-ATP. The Asp-84 dGK replacements bad no apparent effect on the binding of deoxyadenosine by dAK. However, the mutant dGKs were no longer inhibited by dGTP, normally a potent distal end-product inhibitor of dGK. Moreover, the allosteric activation of dAK activity by dGTP or dGuo was lost in the modified heterodimeric dAK/dGK enzyme. Therefore, it seems very likely that Asp-84 participates in dGuo binding at the active site of the dGK subunit of dAK/dGK from Lactobacillus acidophilus R-26.

The oxidation of triphenylphosphine by [(tpy)(phen)RuⅣ(O)]2+ and [(bpy)(p-tert-butylpy)RuⅣ(0)]2+ (tpy is 2,2': 6',2"-terpyridine, phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine, and p-tert-butylpy is para-tertbutylpyridine) in CH3CN has been studied. Experiments using 18O-labeled complex show the oxyl group transfer from [RuⅣ=O]2+ to triphenylphosphine occured quantitatively within experimental error. Kinetic data were fit to a second-order for [RuⅣ=O]2+ and [PPh3]. The initial product, [RuⅡ-OPPh3]2+, was formed as an observable intermediate and then underwent slow solvolysis. The reaction proceeded as endothermic in activation enthalpy and a decrease in activation entropy. The oxidative reactivity of four representative ruthenium mono-oxo oxidants against triphenylphosphine was compared. These systems have been utilized as electrochemical oxidative catalysts.

Internet purchase is increasing according to the activation of Electronic Commerce. Currently, the hardware is main purchase items in the Electronic Commerce. The on-line purchase of digital product, that is electronic file type of product, has many merits such as, does not cost in logistics, is ease of searching the product, and is possible of 'Try and Buy' system. But, actually digital products have not been major product and Cause of its piracy problem. Therefore, the tchnology of digital rights management is focused within EC. The piracy problem of digital products comes from the lack of safety in DP license control technology. Current EC has no method to identify the object that has the right to use the digital product. The protecting of object change is impossible and the protection of hacking is not enough and EC has many problems in efficient license control because of the incompletion of EC structure. In this paper, we propose the design and implementation of on-line circulation system, which can activate on-line circulation of MP3 digital data product in EC, by using the new license control technology, that is Dynamic License Control technology.

This study was performed in order to obtain the effect of the compressive strength of the cured product with manufacturing conditions (amounts of fine aggregate and different types of alkali activator). Material which is the basis of the cured product was used for the blast furnace slag, which has a latent hydraulic activity. Consequently, when using sodium hydroxide as the alkali activator, it is possible to obtain a higher compressive strength than using the calcium hydroxide. And also, it can be added a 10% of fine aggregate with blast furnace slag to improve the compressive strength.

The cytochrome P450 (P450) 1 family (1A1, 1A2, 1B1) is involved in the activation of many pro-carcinogens. Previously we characterized a number of synthetic bi- and polycyclic hydrocarbon acetylenes as selective-mechanism-based inhibitors of recombinent P450s 1A1, 1A2, 1B1 (Shimada et al., Chem. Res. Toxicol., 11, 1048-1056, 1998). We reported that the drug oltipraz is a mechanism-based indicator of P450 1A2 (Lagouet et al. Chem. Res. Toxicol., 13, 245-252, 2000).(omitted)

Ceramide. a product of sphingomyelin hydrolysis, has been proposed as a lipid second messenger mediating antiproliferative activation. In this study, we examined the role of the cell cycle-related proteins in the ceramide-mediated growth suppression. Treatment of U-937 cells with C$_2$-ceramide(N-acetylsphingosine) resulted in growth suppression in a time- and concentration dependent manner. Ceramide induced concentration dependent dephosphorylation of retinoblastoma gene product (Rb). Rb remains hypophosphorylated in synchronized cells even after serum stimulation in the presence of ceramide. Ceramide decreased the expression of cyclin D$_1$ and cyclin E levels. These results suggest that antiproliferative effect of ceramide is associated with hypophosphorylation of Rb and decreased expression of cyclin D1 and cyclin E.

The kinetic analysis of energetic materials using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is proposed. Friedman Isoconversional method is applied to DSC experiment data and AKTS software is used for analysis. The frequency factor and activation energy are extracted as a function of product mass fraction. The extracted kinetic scheme does not assume multiple chemical steps to describe the response of energetic materials; instead, multiple set of Arrhenius factors are used in describing a single global step. The proposed kinetic scheme has considerable advantage over the standard method based on One-Dimenaionl Time to Explosion (ODTX). Reaction rate and product mass fraction simulation are conducted to validate extracted kinetic scheme. Also a slow cook-off simulation is implemented for validating the applicability of the extracted kinetics scheme to a practical thermal experiment.
