In this study, we investigate the status of calcium (Ca) homeostasis at parturition in three dairy farms (I, II, and III), Heilongjiang, China. Twenty multiparous Holstein cows from each farm were randomly assigned to this experiment. The dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) was 91 mEq/kg of DM for farm I, 152 mEq/kg of DM for farm II, and 85 mEq/kg of DM for farm III. Incidence of hypocalcemia was above 75% and urine pH was above 7.25 at calving in each farm. Compared to other farms, cows in farm II that fed the greatest positive DCAD had the lowest concentration of serum Ca, the highest concentration of serum PTH, and the greatest urine pH at calving (p < 0.05). However, there was not significant difference in serum 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D and hydroxyproline concentration of the cows among three farms. This is the first study to confirm that hypocalcemia is very prevalent at calving in Chinese dairy farms, and the high positive DCAD is a major risk factor that results in hypocalcemia at calving, which may reduce ability of the cow to maintain Ca homeostasis.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate anti-aging and antioxidant effects of extracts of Nelumbo nucifera leaves (NN-L) using ethanol on skin .Methods : Each part of leaves(NN-L), flowers(NN-F) and stem(NN-S) was extracted with 70% ethanol. We performed radical scavenging assay(DPPH, ABTS+, Superoxide anion radical), elastase inhibition assay, collagenase inhibition assay. NN-L extracts were tested for cell viability(MTT assay), MMP-1 inhibition and MMP-1 protein expression on CCD-986sk cells (human fibroblast line).Results : Recently, many studies have reported that elastin is also involved in inhibiting or repairing wrinkle formation, although collagen is a major factor in the skin wrinkle formation. We measured its free radical scavenging activity, elastase inhibitory activity and expression of MMP-1 (matrix metalloprotease-1) in human fibroblast cells. Among the parts of Nelumbo nucifera, NN-L showed the highest antioxidant activities and in radical scavenging. DPPH, ABTS+ and Superoxide anion radical scavenging activity of NN-L at concentration of 1,000 μg/mL were 91.43%, 99.31% and 73.7% respectively. In vitro elastase and collagenase inhibition effects of NN-L at concentration of 1,000 μg/mL was 42.8% and 55.3% respectively. The ethanol extract of NN-L showed cell viability of 95.4% in 50 μg/mL concentration. In addition, The results from Western blot assay showed that NN-L decreased the expression of MMP-1 protein in a dose-dependent manner (by up to 35.0% at 50 μM).Conclusion : The findings suggest that the NN-L great potential as a cosmeceutical ingredient with antioxidant and anti-wrinkling effects.

Atmospheric particulate matter (A. P. M.) was collected and size-fractionated by an Andersen high-volume air sampler over 15 month period from Jan. 1985 to Feb. 1986 in Seoul. The concentration of chloride, nitrate and sulfate were extracted in an ultrasonic bath and were analyzed by ion chromatography. The annual arithmetical mean of A. P. M. was 128.54 $\mug/m^3$. The concentration of anions were 2.88 $\mug/m^3$ for chloride, 3.86$\mug/m^3$ for nitrate, and 25.44$\mug/m^3$ for sulfate. The content of A. P. M. was lowest in the particle size range 1.1 $\sim 3.3\mum$ and increased as the particle size increased or decreased. And the anions exhibited a seasonal variation in the isize distribution. The contents of anions were higher in winter than summer. Ther ratio of fine particles to the total particles defined by F/T for chloride, nitrate and sulfate. The F\ulcornerT of these anion generally decrease with increasing air temperature. This tendency was prevalent in the chloride and nitrate.

Objective: The objective of the present study was to determine ammonium chloride tolerance of lactating dairy cows, by examining effects of negative dietary cation anion difference (DCAD) induced by ruminal ammonium chloride infusion on performance, serum and urine minerals, serum metabolites and enzymes of lactating dairy cows. Methods: Four primiparous lactating Chinese Holstein cows fitted with ruminal cannulas were infused with increasing amounts (0, 150, 300, or 450 g/d) of ammonium chloride in a crossover design. The DCAD of the base diet was 279 mEq/kg dry matter (DM) using the DCAD formula (Na + K - Cl - S)/kg of DM. Ammonium chloride infusion added the equivalent of 0, 128, 330, and 536 mEq/kg DM of Cl in treatments. According to the different dry matter intakes (DMI), the resulting actual DCAD of the four treatments was 279, 151, -51, and -257 mEq/kg DM, respectively. Results: DMI decreased linearly as DCAD decreased. Yields of milk, 4% fat-corrected milk, energy-corrected milk, milk fat, and milk protein decreased linearly as DCAD decreased. Concentrations of milk protein and milk urea nitrogen increased linearly with decreasing DCAD. Concentration of Cl- in serum increased linearly and concentration of PO43- in serum increased quadratically as DCAD decreased. Urine pH decreased linearly and calculated urine volume increased linearly with decreasing DCAD. Linear increases in daily urinary excretion of $Cl^-$, $Ca^{2+}$, $PO_4{^{3-}}$, urea N, and ammonium were observed as DCAD decreased. Activities of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and ${\gamma}-glutamyl$ transferase in serum and urea N concentration in serum increased linearly as DCAD decreased. Conclusion: In conclusion, negative DCAD induced by ruminal ammonium chloride infusion resulted in a metabolic acidosis, had a negative influence on performance, and increased serum enzymes indicating potential liver and kidney damage in lactating dairy cows. Daily ammonium chloride intake by lactating dairy cows should not exceed 300 g, and 150 g/d per cow may be better.

본 연구에서 얻을 수 있었던 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 황산이온 농도를 포함해 원수의 음이온 농도가 낮은 경우 질산이온을 효율적으로 제거하기 위해 사용가능한 수지는 일반적으로 사용되는 Type 1수지보다도 공극형태가 gel 형태인 Type 2수지를 사용하는 것이 적절할 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 음이온 농도가 높은 지하수나 빠른 유속으로 처리할 경우 공극형태가 macroporous인 것이 유리할 것으로 판단된다. 또한 원수의 항산이온 농도가 낮은 경우에는 같은 macroporous 형태의 수지라도 IRA-900 같은 일반 형태의 수지가 질산이온 선택성 수지보다도 효율이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 2. Type 2 수지를 사용하여 얻은 자료로 동력학적 접근 방정식에 적용하여 얻은 결과를 다중희귀분석한 결과 다음과 같은 식을 도출할 수 있었다. $logq_0$=-0.14logV-0.148logH-1.04(r=0.99) logM=0.135logV+0.151logH+1.814(r=0.99) 3. 황산이온 농도가 다소 높은 지하수를 처리할 때는 일반형태인 IRA-900보다도 질산이온 선택성 수지인 IMAC HP-555 수지가 효율이 좋은 것으로 나타나 원수의 황산이온 농도가 50mg/l 이상일 경우에는 질산이온 선택성 수지를 사용하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 소수성 다공질 세라믹관이 결합된 수중 유전체장벽방전 플라즈마 반응기를 이용하여 모사 염색폐수의 색도저감을 조사하였다. 플라즈마에 의해 생성되는 활성성분들은 수명이 매우 짧으므로 생성되는 즉시 물과 접촉시켜야 효과적인 폐수처리가 가능하며, 또한 반응속도를 증가시키기 위해서는 기/액 접촉면적이 커야 하는데, 본 연구의 반응기는 두 가지 목적을 동시에 이룰 수 있다. 아조 염료로는 amaranth, 그리고 플라즈마 생성을 위한 기체로는 공기가 사용되었으며, 방전전력, 기체 유량, 용존 음이온, 염료 초기농도 등 색도 제거에 미치는 다양한 변수의 영향이 평가되었다. 기체유량이 $1.5Lmin^{-1}$일 때, 플라즈마 기체가 염색폐수와 가장 효과적으로 접촉하였으며, 색도 제거가 가장 빠르게 일어났다. 염료 초기농도 $40.2{\mu}molL^{-1}$ (폐수부피 : 0.8 L), 방전전력 3.37 W의 조건에서 색도를 99% 이상 제거하는데 약 25 min이 소요되었다. 그밖에 염료의 초기농도가 낮을수록, 방전전력이 높을수록 색도 제거 속도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 염소이온이 존재할 경우 색도 제거 속도가 빨라졌으나, 질산이온은 색도 제거 속도에 영향을 주지 않았다.

Ion exchange resin was used to remove silica ion at ultralow concentration. The effects of temperature, type of ion exchange resin and single/mixed-resin systems on removal efficiency were estimated. As temperature increased, the slope of concentration profile became stiff, and the equilibrium concentration was higher. In the single resin system, the removal of silica was continued up to 400 min, but the silica concentration was recovered to initial concentration after 400 min due to the effect of dissolved $CO_2$. In the mixed-resin system it took about 600 min to reach equilibrium. Because of faster cation exchange reaction than anion exchange reaction, the effect of $CO_2$ could be removed. Based on the experimental results carried out in the mixed-resin system, the selectivity coefficients of silica ion for each ion exchange resin were calculated at some specific temperatures. The temperature dependency of the selectivity coefficient was expressed by the equation of Kraus-Raridon type.

The activities per volume of $^{188}Re$ and $^{99m}Tc$ from their generators are dependent on the specific activity of their mother nuclides $^{188}W$ and $^{99}Mo$ respectively. After a particular lapse of time, the eluted RI activity is exponentially reduced and thus cannot satisfy the needs of clinical application. The purpose of this study is to develop a $^{188}Re$ and $^{99m}Tc$ concentration device with a compact size that can extend the period of use as well as conveniently concentrate the RI. We designed the concentration module by including two-different check valves that do not required any manual on-off operations. In these concentration process, cation exchange resin embedded with Ag and anion exchange resins were used. After completing the concentrating step, the recovering yield was identified to be more than 93% for $^{188}Re$ generators and 88% for $^{99m}Tc$ generators. Moreover, all these procedures were done within 5 min.

The aminolysis reactions of thiophenyl phenylacetates with benzylamines are investigated in acetonitrile at 55.0℃. Relatively large selectivity parameters, βx≒ 1.5, βz = -1.5~-1.8 and βxz = 0.92 together with the valid reactivity-selectivity principle are consistent with stepwise acyl transfer mechanism with rate limiting expulsion of the leaving group, thiophenolate anion, from the tetrahedral intermediate, T ± . The first order kinetics with respect to the benzylamine concentration and the realtively large secondary kinetic isotope effect (kH / kD = 1.2-1.7) involving deuterated benzylamine nucleophiles suggest a four center type transition state in which concurrent leaving group departure and proton transfer are involved.
