The effects of boronic acid on the fluoride-selective chemosignaling behavior of a merocyanine dye were investigated. In the presence of phenylboronic acid (PBA), N-methylquinolinium-based merocyanine dye displayed fluoride-selective chromogenic signaling behavior over other commonly coexisting anions in the micromolar concentration range. Signaling is produced by a fluoride-induced displacement of the dye from its complex with PBA, resulting in a significant chromogenic signal for the fluoride ion. This signaling was successfully analyzed using a ratiometric analysis of the UV-vis absorption in response to changes in fluoride ion concentration. A PBA substituted with an electron withdrawing group was found to exhibit a more pronounced signal. Polymer-bound PBA also exhibited useful fluoride-selective signaling behavior.

To obtain basic information on the detection of cellulolytic activity in Auricularia auricula-judae, the influences of dye reagent, pH, and temperature were assessed. Chromogenic dye (congo red, phenol red, remazol brilliant blue, and trypan blue) was individually incorporated into a medium containing either carboxymethyl-cellulose, Avicel, or D-cellobiose as a polysaccharide carbon substrate. The other assessments utilized pHs ranging from 4.5 to 8.0 and temperatures from $15\sim35^{\circ}C$. Overall, when A. auricula-judae species were transferred onto media contained Congo red and adjusted pH 7.0 and then incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 days, the clear zone indicative of cellulolytic activity was more pronounced.

Hirudin is a potent inhibitor of thrombin, which was originally obtained from the medicinal leech (Hirudo medicinalis) Now it is being produced through the recombinant technology on a large scale. Recombinant hirudin has been assayed for the anticoagulant activity by the measurement of clotting time and the inhibition of thrombin actvity using a chromogenic substrate. The assay range of partial thromboplastin time and thrombin time is within $0.2{\sim}1.0 {\mu}g/mι.$ Thrombin time is more sensitive to the measurement of clot. Ex vivo study showed the level of hirudin in rat plasma was highest in 10 min and then it was eliminated slowly. The half-life of r-hirudin was 80~110 min depending on the assay methods. Intraveneous injection of russel viper venom was used for thrombus induction combined with vents cava ligation. Inhibition of venous thrombosis was observed with i.v. hirudin. It was dependent on the concentration of hirudin.

A newly isolated Rhodopseudomonas palustris P4 could decolorize various synthetic dyes containing different chromogenic groups such as azo linkage (Crocein Orange G, New Coccine, Chromotrope FB, Congo Red, Remazol Black B), anthraquinone Reactive blue 2, or indigo Indigo Carmine. Among them, the degradation rate of Black B was studied in detial. Degradation of Black B followed the Arrhenius equation in 25 - $40^{\circ}C$ with an activation energy of 7.79 kcal/mol. Optimum pH was 8. Glucose in the range of 5 - 50g/l did not affect the Black B decolorization. When Black B increased from 25 mg/l to 2000 mg/l, decolorization activity increased almost linearly but the extent of decolorization was constant at about 86% irrespective of dye concentration. Analyses by HPLC revealed that the Black B molecules were partially degraded and some chromogenic intermediates were produced. These results indicate that Rps. palustris P4 has an outstanding capability to degrade various dyes.

The design and development of fluorescent chemosensors have recently been intensively explored for sensitive and specific detection of environmentally and biologically relevant metal ions in aqueous solution and living cells. Herein, we report the photophysical results of rhodamine B based fluorogenic and chromogenic receptor for selective copper detection in the complete organic or mixed aqueous-organic media at neutral pH under ambient condition. The ligand exhibited the remarkable increment in the fluorescence emission and UV-visible absorption signal intensities at 587 and 547 nm, respectively, on induction of copper ion while the ligand solution remain completely silent on addition of varieties of other metal ions.

A simple chromogenic system based on 1-fluoride was developed to determine water content in organic solvent. This system utilized deprotonation and protonation of the anion receptor 1. The water content evaluated from this system gave close value to the real water content in the range of 0 to 0.35% in acetonitrile and 0.2 to 0.5% in DMSO. Therefore, protonation and deprotonation phenomenon from the anion receptor by basic anion could be promising method for water sensing system.

A chromogenic mimic of phenlyalanyl-dipeptide, L-phenylalanyl-L-2-sulfanilylglycine (PSG), was synthesized and examined for its usability in leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) assay. The enzyme activity was easily determined by measuring the amount of diazotized adduct of sulfanilic acid released upon hydrolysis of PSG ($\varepsilon^{420}$=18,000/M/cm). Under the experimental conditions employed, PSG showed a Km of 0.063 mM and a Kcat of 1683/min, assessable less than 0.1 $\mu$ g of LAP per milliliter. And the presence of aminopeptidase M (APM) was suggested to be negligible in LAP assay. This novel assay can circumvent the occasional yellow background in biological systems, i.e., serums, etc..

The ability of Ganoderma to produce extracellular enzymes, including ${\beta}$-glucosidase, cellulase, avicelase, pectinase, xylanase, protease, amylase, and ligninase was tested in chromogenic media. ${\beta}$-glucosidase showed the highest activity, among the eight tested enzymes. In particular, Ganoderma neo-japonicum showed significantly stronger activity for ${\beta}$-glucosidase than that of the other enzymes. Two Ganoderma lucidum isolates showed moderate activity for avicelase; however, Ganoderma neojaponicum showed the strongest activity. Moderate ligninase activity was only observed in Ganoderma neo-japonicum. In contrast, pectinase, amylase, protease, and cellulase were not present in Ganoderma. The results show that the degree of activity of the tested enzymes varied depending on the Ganoderma species tested.

A total of 106 Penicillium species were tested to examine their ability of degrading cellobiose, pectin and xylan. The activity of ${\beta}$-glucosidase was generally strong in all the Penicillium species tested. P. citrinum, P. charlesii, P. manginii and P. aurantiacum showed the higher ability of producing ${\beta}$-glucosidase than other tested species. Pectinase activity was detected in 24 Penicillium species. P. paracanescens, P. sizovae, P. sartoryi, P. chrysogenum, and P. claviforme showed strong pectinase activity. In xylanase assay, 84 Penicillium species showed activity. Strong xylanase activity was detected from P. megasporum, P. sartoryi, P. chrysogenum, P. glandicola, P. discolor, and P. coprophilum. Overall, most of the Penicillium species tested showed strong ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity. The degree of pectinase and xylanase activity varied depending on Penicillium species.
