3,7-bis(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-5-phenyl-5H-benzo[b]phosphinedole 5-sulfide (DBPPS-TPA) and 3,7-bis(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-5-phenyl-5H-benzo[b]phosphinedole 5-selenide (DBPPSe-TPA) are newly synthesized D-A-D type molecules based on dibenzophospholes and their physic-chemical properties are studied in comparison with a P=O type compouond, 3,7-bis(4-(diphenylamino)-5-phenyl-5H-benzo[b]phosphinedole 5-oxide (DBPPO-TPA). Fluorescence emission and electrochemical redox properties of these compounds are investigated regarding results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, X-ray crystallographic structures and UV-vis absorption spectra. These results exhibit systematic variation in optical properties of these compounds having P=O, P=S, and P=Se units. LUMO energy level is systematically modulated with different chalcogenide atoms.

A study has been made to estimate biomass and NPP based on equation form of $Wt=aD^bH^c$ for Quercus variabilis and Quercus mongolica natural stands(Mean age; 67, 62yrs old) in Chungju. Equation form of $Wt=aD^bH^c$ was more adequate than $Wt=a(D^2H)^b$ and $Wt=aD^b$ for the estimation of the biomass and NPP. Individual biomass was compared using a paired t-test by tree component which showed no significant differences. Total aboveground biomass of Quercus mongolica was 130.6 t/ha and that of Quercus variabilis was 137.4 t/ha. Biomass of Q. mongolica was composed of foliage 5.1 t/ha(3.9%), dead branch 3.5 t/ha(2.7%), live branch 29.7 t/ha(23.0%), bolebark 16.2 t/ha(12.5%), and bolewood 74.9 t/ha(58.0%), and that of Q. variabilis was composed of foliage 3.8 t/ha(2.9%), dead branch 2.9 t/ha(2.2%), live branch 24.3 t/ha(18.4%), bolebark 20.4 t/ha(15.5%), and bolewood 80.4 t/ha(61.0%). Net primary production was 10.0 t/ha/yr in the Q. mongolica stand and 8.6 t/ha/yr in the Q. variabilis stand, respectively. Net primary production of Quercus forest in Chungju was very close to the mean NPP of the broadleaved forest of temperate zone.

This study was undertaken to examine the electrochemical corrosion properties of an $Co_{80}Nb_{10}B_{10}$ and $Co_{82}Nb_8B_{10}$ amorphous alloys prepared by melt-spinning method under various conditions. The potentiodynamic polarization responses at various levels of pH (pH 2, pH 7, pH 12) showed that the corrosion current rate of $Co_{80}Nb_{10}B_{10}$ alloy is lower than that of $Co_{82}Nb_8B_{10}$ alloy in all levels of pH, implying the general corrosion resistance of the alloy with higher Nb content is better than that with higher Co content. The pitting potential of $Co_{80}Nb_{10}B_{10}$ alloy was also better than that of $Co_{82}Nb_8B_{10}$, evidenced by the higher pitting potential. Nb is thought to be effective in increasing the protectiveness of the passive film and hence to improve the corrosion resistance of Co-Nb-B alloys.

A new bacteriocin producing lactic acid bacteria having antagonistic activity against Lactobacillus plantarum, was isolated from Kimchi. It was identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides, and designated as Leuconostoc mesenteroides B7. The bacteriocin from Leuconostoc mesenteroides B7 named as bacteriocin B7 was stable in the pH range $2.5{\sim}9.5$. Bacteriocin B7 was active over a wide temperature range from $4^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$. It was inactivated by proteinase K, trypsin, ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$, and protease treatments indicating its proteinous nature. Tricine-SDS-PAGE of the purified bacteriocin B7 showed the presence of a single band, having a molecular mass of about 3,500 dalton. Mixed culture of the producer and the indicator, Lb. plantarum KFRI 464 or Lb. delbruekii KFRI 347, increased production of bacteriocin B7. This result suggested the presence of bacteriocin inducing factor in the indicator strain. The inducing factor was localized in cell debris and intracellular faction of the indicator cell, Lb. plantarum KFRI 464. Treatment of the inducing factor with proteinase K destroyed inducing activity. This result strongly suggested that the inducing factor is a protein.

Streptomyces chibaensis J-59 did not grow in the culture medium containing only xylose or xylan as a carbon source, because it was defective in xylulokinase production; xylB mutant. S. chibaensis J-59 was able to produce xylanase and $\beta $-xylosidase as well as glucose isomerase. The glucose isomerase in S. chilbaensis J-59 was induced in the medium containing xylan or xylose which could be utilized as an inducer but not sa carbon and energy sources. So we tried to produce glucose isomerase whthout consumption of xylose or xylan as an inducer by using xylB mutant S. chilbaensis J-59. The optimum condition for the production of the glucose isomerase was attained in a culture medium composed of 1% xylan, 0.15% glucose, 1.5% corn steep liquor, 0.1% MaSO$_{4}$ $\CDOT $7H$_{2}$O, and 0.012% CoCL$_{2}$ $\CDOT $ 6H$_{2}$O(pH 7.0). The production of the enzyme reached to a maximum level when the bacteria were cultured for 42 h at 30$\circ $C. The enzyme production in a jar fermentor was increased twice as much as that in a flask culture.

The magnetic inductance of nanocrystalline $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ and an amorphous FeSiB powder sheet has been investigated to identify RFID performance. The powder was mixed with binder and solvent and tape-casted to form films. Results show annealing significantly influenced on the inductance of the material. The surface oxidation of the particles was the main reason for the reduced inductance. The maximum inductance of $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ alloy was about $88{\mu}H$ at 17.4 MHz, about 65% greater compared to the FeSiB alloy. The higher inductance in the nanocrystalline alloy indicates it may be used as a potential replacement of current RFID materials.

This study was performed to elucidate substrate specificity to the locust bean gum galactomannan by Trichoderma harzianum ${\beta}-mannanase$. The medium composition for enzyme production were determined 3% cellulose, 3% corn steep liquor, 1% $KH_2PO_4$, 0.2% $(NH_4){_2}SO_4$, and incubated for 115 hr at $28^{\circ}C$. The ${\beta}-mannanase$ exhibited maximum activity at pH 4.5 and $60^{\circ}C$. Locust bean gum galactomannan was hydrolyzed by the ${\beta}-mannanase$, and then hydrolysates separated by activated carbon column chromatography. The main hydrolysates were composed of D.P 4 and 7 galactosyl mannooligosaccharides by TLC. For the elucidate the structure of D.P 4 and 7 oligosaccharides, methylation analysis was performed. D.P 4 and 7 were identified as M-M-M-M and M-M-M-M-M (G- and M-represent ${\alpha-1,6-D-galactosidic\;and\;{\beta}-1,4-mannosidic$ linkages, respectively). //G-G To investigate the effects of locust bean gum galactosyl mannooligosaccharides on the in vitro growth of B. longum, B. bifidum, B. infantis, and B. breve, Bifidobacterium spp. were cultivated individually on the modified-MRS medium containing carbon source such as D.P 4 and 7 galactosyl mannooligosaccharides, respectively. B. longum grew up 3.4-fold and 4.3-fold more effectively by the replacement of D.P 4 and 7 galactosyl mannooligosaccharides as the carbon source in a comparasion of standard MRS.

The synthesis of novel group 9 metal complexes containing the S,S'-chelate ligands, $Li_2S_2C_2B_{10}H_{10}$ (2a) and $LiS(S=PMe_2)C_2B_{10}H_{10$} (2b), is described. Two new dinuclear complexes of the type $[{(cod)M}_2(S,S'-S_2C_2B_{10}H_{10})]$ (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene; M = Rh (3a), or Ir (3b)) were synthesized by the reaction of chloridebridged dimers $[M({\mu}-Cl)(cod)]_2$ with one molar equivalent of the corresponding dilithium dithiolato ligand $Li_2S_2C_2B_{10}H_{10}$ (2a). X-ray crystal structure analysis of 3a revealed a dinuclear structure in which each (cod)Rh unit is attached to a distinct sulfur atom of a 1,2-dithio-o-carboranyl ligand (2a). Additionally, the electrochemical properties of 3a and 3b were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. In an analogous manner, reaction of the lithium dithiolato ligand $LiS(S=PMe_2)C_2B_{10}H_{10}$ (2b) with $Cp^{\ast}CoI_2(CO)$ produced a mononuclear dithiolato complex, $[Cp^{\ast}CoI{(S,S'-S(S=PMe_2)C_2B_{10}H_{10})}]$ (4), which was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis.
