Bleached chemithermomechanical pulp (BCTMP) was produced from CTMP of Betula maximowicziana Regel by two staged ozone-hydrogen peroxide bleaching in order to improve the optical properties of high yield pulp. This pulp was used for the evaluation of optical properties improvement, chemical characteristics of lignin in fiber and the relationship between lignin and optical properties in fiber cell wall. Hydrogen peroxide treatment improved the brightness, but the post color number (PC No.). There was little improvement on optical properties by ozone treatment, but this could be improved more by using two staged ozone-hydrogen peroxide bleaching. The hydrogen peroxide treatment did not make any change on chemical characteristics of lignin in cell wall, but by ozone treatment, it was found that the non-aromatic conjugated structure was existed in the surface of cell wall, but this could be removed by hydrogen peroxide treatment in two staged ozone-hydrogen peroxide treatment. Therefore, the optical properties was significantly improved, due to the removal of non-aromatic conjugated structure.

We demonstrate an optically compensated bend (OCB) cell with pixel-isolating polymer wall. The polymer wall is formed by anisotropic phase separation of LCs and UV-curable polymer. The fabricated cell is initially in ${\pi}-twisted$ state so that it shows uniform and fast bend transition without any transition nucleus. The proposed cell has lower driving voltage than conventional OCB cell. Also, the polymer wall provides mechanical stability, hence preventing distortion of display image from external pressure.

This paper was investigated the changes of the cell wall components, enzyme activities during ripening of jujuba fruits for elucidating the softening metabolism of jujuba fruits. Firmness were decreased during ripening. Moisture content did not show any notable cahanges until ripening stage but they decreased a little In overripe jujuba fruits. Polygalacturonase activities were not detected at nature green stage and $\beta$-galactosidase activities were until turning stage. But polygalacturonase activities in ripening and overripening were 51.31 and 100.72 units/100g-fr, wt. respectively. $\beta$-galactosidase activities were 16.05 and 182.55units/100g-fr. wt. in the same stages. The content of water-soluble protein was increased in overripening. Stage the contents of cell wall and alcohol-insoluble material were. decraesed during maturation, but water-soluble material was increased. The pectin and alkali-soluble hemicellulose were increased until ripening stage, but decreased in overripe jujube fruits. The total pectin and insoluble pectin during ripening, but decreased in overripe jujuba fruits.

Bacteria have been regarded as a one of major etiologic factors in root canal infections. In endodontic treatment the effective removal of pathogenic microorganisms in the root canal is the key to successful outcome. Bacterial cell wall components may play an important role in the development of pulpal and periapical disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of sonic extracts of Streptococcus spp. on cultured L929 cells and to characterize cell wall protein profiles of Streptococcus spp. Streptococcus spp. were isolated from infected root canals and identified with Vitek Systems(Biomeriux, USA). Five streptococci, namely S. sanguis, S. mitis, S uberis, S. mutans (ATCC 10449) and S. faecalis (ATCC 19433) weere enriched in brain heart infusion broth. Cell pellets were sonicated and cell wall extracts were dialyzed and membrane filtered. Prepared cell wall proteins were applied to cultured L929 cell. The cell reaction were evaluated by monitoring DNA synthesis, cell numbers and the change of cell morphology. The total cell wall protein profiles of microorganisms were characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide-gel eledruphoresis(SDS-PAGE). DNA synthesis of L929 cells were reduced by the increasing concentration of sonic extracts. DNA synthesis was significantly suppressed in more than $50{\mu}g$/ml of sonic extract conentration in five streptococci. S. nutans (ATCC 10449) showed stronger suppression on DNA synthesis than remaining four streptococci, which had the similar effect on DNA synthesis. Analysis of DNA synthesis measured by [$^3H$]-thymidine uptake was more sensitvie method than cell counting. Sonic extracts affected the microscopic findings of L929 cells. The protein profiles indicated that all five strains shared two major proteins with molecular masses of 70.8 and 57.5 kD respectively. S. uberis and S. mutans shared common minor proteins of which molecular weights were 147.9 and 112.2 kD respectively. However some minor proteins were unique for S. mitis, S. uberis and S. faecalis.

Atratoxin $B_1$ which was found to inhibit the growth of Candida albicans caused structural and morphological alteration of the cells. Increased accumulation of vesicles and membranous bodies in the cytoplasm, and alterations of the cell membrane and cell wall were most obvious. Sequential lytic events of the cells eventually resulted in complete disintegration of the cytoplasmic structures. These results suggested that atratoxin $B_1$ functioned by either blocking the biosynthetic step during cell wall synthesis, altering cell wall metabolism or dissolution of the cell organelles. These changes caused a progressive destruction of the cell wall leading to cell lysis.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cell wall protein-A (CWP-A) were extracted from the cell wall of Vibrio vulnificus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. LPSs and CWP-As were injected into rat and the changes of the following blood components were examined. The change of the number of white blood cell (WBC), red blood cell (RCB), platelet (PLT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and blood glucose in rat blood and interferon (IFN) activity change by LPS and CWP-A were measured. WBC, RETI, PTT, and BUN were increased and RBC and blood glucose were increased slightly, but PLT was decreased.

This paper was carried out to investigate changes in chromatograms of polysacctatides and soluble pectins on Sephadex G-50 and non-cellulosic neutral sugars of polysaccharides isolated from cell wall of persimmon fruits treated with polygalacturonase and $\beta$-galactosidase in vitro. The chromatogram pattern of soluble pectins extracted from cell wall treated with $\beta$-galactosidase on Sephacryl S-500 column were similar to those of untreatment, but contents of soluble pectins treated with $\beta$-galactosidase were different from those of untreatment. The patterns of chromatograms In soluble pectins extracted from cell wall treated with polygalacturonase were more complex and lower molecular polymer than those of other cell wall-degrading enzyme treatments. Non-cellulosic neutral sugar of polysaccharides in fraction I of soluble material treated with polygalacturonase was rhamnose, those in fraction II were similar to those in fraction III and contents of arabinose, xylose and glucose were higher than contents of other non-cellulosic neutral sugars. Non-cellulosic neutral sugars of polysaccharides in fraction I in soluble material by $\beta$-galactosidase treatment were rhamnose, arabinose, galactose and mannose. Content of glucose of polysaccharides in fraction II was higher than that in fraction I . Non-cellulosic neutral sugars treated with mixed enzyme were rhamnose, fucose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, galactose and glucose. Compositions of non-cellulosic neutral sugars of polysaccharides in fraction I were similar to those in fraction II and III.

When a multinucleate cell of Bryopsis plumosa was collapsed by a physical wounding, the extruded protoplasm aggregated into numerous protoplasmic masses in sea water. A polysaccharide envelope which initially covered the protoplasmic mass was peeled off when a cell membrane developed on the surface of protoplast in 12 h after the wounding. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the protoplasmic mass began to form a continuous cell membrane at 6 h after the wounding. The newly generated cell membrane repeated collapse and rebuilding process several times until cell wall developed on the surface. Golgi bodies with numerous vesicles accumulated at the peripheral region of the rebuilding cell at 24 h after the wounding when the cell wall began to develop. Several layers of cell wall with distinctive electron density developed within 48-72 h after the wounding. Proteome profile changed dramatically at each stage of cell rebuilding process. Most proteins, which were up-regulated during the early stage of cell rebuilding disappeared or reduced significantly by 24-48 h. About 70-80% of protein spots detected at 48 h after the wounding were newly appeared ones. The expression pattern of 29 representative proteins was analyzed and the internal amino acid sequences were obtained using mass spectrometry. Our results showed that a massive shift of gene expression occurs during the cell-rebuilding process of B. plumosa.

대두(Glycine max)의 ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase를 분리동정하고 benzyladenine(BA)이 이 효소의 세포내 함량과 활동도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 또 세포벽의 callose함량과 protoplast의 세포벽재생에 미치는 BA의 영향을 조사하여, cytokinin이 식물의 세포벽재생을 촉진하는 기능이 있음을 확인하고 세포벽재생에 있어서 cytokinin의 작용기구를 검토하였다. 대두 ${\beta}-1,3-glucanase$는 21 kD의 polypeptide로 동정되었는데 이 polypeptide의 세포내함량과 효소활성은 BA처리에 의하여 저하되었다. 그리고 callus세포벽의 callose함량과 protoplast의 세포벽재생율이 BA처리에 의하여 증가되었다. 이 결과들은 cytokinin이 세포의 ${\beta}-1,3-glucanase$수준을 저하시켜 callose분해를 억제함으로써 세포벽 재생을 촉진할 수 있음을 보여주었다.
