The new copolymers which contain flexible spacers in main chain were prepared and their properties were studied. the copolymers were synthesized in the melt polymerization melted from diacetoxynaphthalene isomers, ${\alpha},{\omega}bis(4-carboxyphenoxy)$ alkanes and p-acetoxy benzoic acid in the molar ratio of 1:1:2 and characterized for the effects of structure of naphthalenediol isomer moieties and the spacers on thermal crystalline and liquid crystalline properties of the resulting polymers. Diacetoxy naphthalene isomers were used 1. 5-,1. 6-,2. 6-and 2. 7-disubstituted ones and the spacers was either tetramethylene or decamethylene. The polymer was characterized by elemental and spectropic analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) on a polaring microscope, wide-angle X-ray diffractometry and thermogravimetry (TGA). There glass transition temperatures (Tg) and melting temperature (Tm) on the structure of the naphthalenediol isomer moieties and the length of the spacers. The presence of spacers was found to the helpful in crystallization of 1. 6-naphthalenediol copolyesters. The presence of amide group in the backbone chain of polymer was found to increase transition temperature, crystallization, thermal stability of polymers but to decreas solubility.

A dye-decolorizing bacterium was isolated from a soil sample and identified as Bacillus thuringiensis using 16S rRNA sequencing. The bacterium was able to decolorize three different textile dyes, namely, Reactive blue 13, Reactive red 58, and Reactive yellow 42, and a real dyehouse effluent up to 80-95% within 6 h. Some non-textile industrially important dyes were also decolorized to different extents. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer analysis of the ethyl acetate extract of Congo red dye and its metabolites showed that the bacterium could degrade it by the asymmetric cleavage of the azo bonds to yield sodium (4-amino-3-diazenylnaphthalene-1-sulfonate) and phenylbenzene. Sodium (4-amino-3-diazenylnaphthalene-1-sulfonate) was further oxidized by the ortho-cleavage pathway to yield 2-(1-amino-2-diazenyl-2-formylvinyl) benzoic acid. There was induction of the activities of laccase and azoreductase during the decolorization of Congo red, which suggests their probable role in the biodegradation. B. thuringiensis was found to be versatile and could be used for industrial effluent biodegradation.

Most of the electromagnetic agents used in physical therapy rely for their effects on tissue heating and photoreaction of the body. Infrared and untraviolet light on the other hand, owns its place in medicine because it produces direct photochemial reaction when it interacts with the body. This study was carried out to investigate and review for photoreaction of the akin. The results were an follows. 1. The effects of the infrared are heat production, increasing metabolism, increasing circulation, vasodilatation and pigmentation. 2. Directed photoreactions are divided into acute reaction and chronic reaction, and the acute reaction makes pigmentation from $290\~320nm$ of ultraviolet ray. 3. Ultraviolet ray formated pigmentations, which are melanoblasts excited from ultraviolet ray and received chemical stimulation, that make melanin granule. 4. If exposured with long duration, at ultraviolet ray, it makes skin thickening and epithelioma. 5. Indirected photoreaction is made by existenced hypersensitivity of photoreaction or lack of photodefence structure. 6. The phototoxic reactions are synthesized by chemical reaction of excitement from ultraviolet ray also this time analysis, synthesis and polymerization from energy of a circumferenced substance. 7. Sunscreen substances are P-amino benzoic acid and oxidate titan.

A new azocalix[4]arene, 5,14,17,23-tetra[(2-benzoic acid)(azo)phenyl] calix[4]arene (2), has been prepared by hydrolysis of its ester derivative and characterized by 1H NMR, IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Based on UV spectral changes, we found that 2 exhibits Pb2+ ion selectivity. In basic media, Pb2+ forms a 1:1 complex with the ligand. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 2.0 × 10?6 ? 2.4 × 10?5 mol L?1 of Pb2+. The molar absorptivity (ε ) of 2-Pb2+ complex is 1.89 × 104 L mol?1 cm?1 at 440 nm, and the detection limit is 1.6 × 10?6 mol L?1.

Single-chain variable fragments of antibodies (scFv) specific to 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT) were isolated from a phage library displaying synthetic human scFv fragments with 6 diversified complementary determining regions (CDRs). A DNT derivative that contained an extended amine group was synthesized and conjugated to the NHS-group that was linked to magnetic beads. Phages specific to the immobilized DNT derivatives were isolated from the library after 4 rounds of sequential binding and elution processes. The displayed scFv fragments from the isolated phages showed consensus CDR sequences. One DNT-specific scFv was expressed in E. coli and purified using Ni-affinity chromatography. The purified DNT-specific scFv binds specifically to the immobilized DNT-derivative with $K_D$ value of $6.0{\times}10^{-7}$ M. The scFv and DNT interaction was not disrupted by the addition of 4-nitrotoluene or benzoic acid. These data demonstrate that the screened scFv from the phage displayed library could be used for selective and sensitive detection of explosives such as TNT.

In order to establish the anti-inflammatory cellular mechanism of the paeony root(Paeonia lactiflora, Pall, Paeoniaceae), the constituents including paeoniflorin, albiflorin, (+)-catechin, paeonol, benzoic acid and methyl gallate were evaluated for their effects on arachidonate and NO metabolism. Among the compounds tested, only paeonol weakly inhibited cyclooxygenase-2-mediated $PGE_2$ production from LPS-treated RAW 264.7 cells. (+)-Catechin and methyl gallate weakly inhibited inducible nitric oxide synthase-mediated NO production from the same cell line. In particular, methyl gallate significantly inhibited 5-lipoxygenase from RBL-l cells with an $IC_{50}$ of 8.4 ${\mu}M$. These results suggest that the inhibition of these components on arachidonate and NO metabolism may contribute at least in part to anti-inflammatory mechanism of the paeony root.

Objectives: Preservatives, suspected to be endocrine disrupting chemicals, are widely used in feminine hygiene products for the prevention of deterioration. Information regarding the usage patterns of feminine hygiene products and the concentrations of preservatives in these products is limited. The present study was conducted to investigate the use of feminine cleansers among Korean women and quantify the concentration of preservatives in feminine cleansers. Methods: Approximately 500 women were recruited from the city of Busan in August 2017 and a questionnaire survey was conducted on the use of feminine cleansers. Several major feminine hygiene products (n=69) were identified and selected for analysis of 22 preservatives. Following appropriate preparation, the products were analyzed by HPLC/DAD. Results: Over 70% of the participating women used at least one feminine cleanser. Marital status and parity were associated with the frequency of use. Liquid was most frequently used form of feminine cleanser (66.6%). The greatest proportion of subjects answered that they use it 'one to two times per week' (36.5%). Among the 69 feminine cleansers, benzoic acid, sorbic acid, phenoxyethanol, and methyl paraben were detected at $144-4,428{\mu}g/g$, $195-1,470{\mu}g/g$, $269-4,237{\mu}g/g$, and $625-4,901{\mu}g/g$, respectively. BA was the most frequently detected (46.4%). Conclusions: In the present study, the characteristics of feminine cleanser use among Korean women were investigated. Based on an analysis of preservatives in the feminine hygiene products, one product was determined to exceed the maximum authorized concentration of MeP (0.4%). Our results will help refine exposure and risk assessment for toxic chemicals in feminine cleansers.

In order to find the antioxidative components, fractionation of Cyperus amuricus (Cyperaceae) methanol extract was performed by measuring the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) scavenging effect. Three compounds, 3,4-dimethoxy benzoic acid (1), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (2), and piceatannol (3) were isolated from the active ethylacetate soluble fraction of C. amuricus through repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Among them, compound 3 showed the significant antioxidative effect on DPPH free radical scavenging test. These compounds are reported for the first time from this plant.
