Temperature and medium composition were changed with the aim of increasing growth and erythropoietin (EPO) production in EPO-producing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. We used the CHO cell line, IBE, and its derivative, CO5, which over-expresses the first two enzymes of the urea cycle, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I (CPS I) and ornithine transcar-bamoylase (OTC). When supplements were added to the medium at $33\;^{\circ}C$, the growth of IBE and CO5 cells increased by $27\%\;and;26\%$, respectively and the maximum yield of EPO was increased by $40\%$ in both cell lines. The absolute EPO concentration in the CO5 cells was always $55{\sim}60\%$ higher than in the IBE cells. In addition, when the two cell lines were continuously cultured with supplements at $33\;^{\circ}C$ until their growth rates approached those at $37\;^{\circ}C$, the growth rates of both IBE and CO5 cells increased by $54\%$ and their maximum EPO levels increased by up to $73\%\;and\;56\%$, respectively. Therefore, the growth and EPO expression levels of CO5 cells increased 2.2-fold and 2.6-fold, respectively, compared to those of the IBE cells. These results indicate that adaptation to lower temperature as well as medium supplementation could be important for improving cell growth and EPO production.

Development of an effective method for the preparation of dongchimi juice was investigated by addition of NaCl, sucrose and hydrolytic enzymes before fermentation and addition of dongchimi juice during fermentation. The Chinese radish was ground and suspended in water (1:1, w/v) with addition of spices of garlic, green onion and ginger followed by fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$. Increase in NaCl concentration of brinning solution from 1.0 to 5.0% resulted in a significant decrease in the rates of pH decrease and acidity increase. The sugar addition resulted in a faster changes of them, particulary after 24 hours at $25^{\circ}C$. The fermentation rate was also greatly improved by enzymatic hydrolysis with using viscozyme, a commercial polysaccharides hydrolyzing enzyme, before fermentation. When the fermented juices of two stage (pH 5.4 and pH 4.4) were added up to 15% before (pH 5.4 juice) and during (pH 4.4 juice) fermentation, the initial and second stage of fermentation were significantly improved. Therefore a method of addition of sugar, hydrolytic enzymes and dongchimi juice before or during fermentation was suggested for dongchimi juice preparation.

The effect of bath composition, plating condition and plating rate on the magnetic property of electroless Co-Cu-P deposits were investigated. With increasing $CuCl_2$ concentration in the bath, plating rate increased, while the Br value of deposit decreased sharply. Deposited surface were inferiority by the increase pH above 10.5, bath temperature higher than $80^{\circ}C$. Plating reaction had been ceased by the increase of pH above 11, bath temperature higher than $90^{\circ}C$ and under $40^{\circ}C$. The Br value of deposit was uniform with various concentration of complexing agent(sodium citrate) in the bath. The Br value of deposit was almost equal to that found by the addition of stabilizer (thiourea) and accelerator(NaF). The Br value of deposit was uniform in plating time(20min) and heat treatment temperature(below $200^{\circ}C$), and were confirmed to have adequate bath stability for practical use.

Nano-fibers of the $Li[Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}]O_2$ electrode were synthesized from a metal oxide precursor using the electrospun method. The XRD patterns of all prepared powders showed a hexagonal ${\alpha}$ - $NaFeO_2$ structure (space group: R-3 m, 166). Scanning electron microscopy showed that all the synthesized samples were comprised of nanofibers with a size of 100~800 nm. Among the samples tested, the calcined $Li[Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}]O_2$ nanowires in oxygen heating atmosphere showed a high charge and discharge capacity of 239.22 and 172.81 $mAhg^{-1}$ at the $1^{st}$ cycle, respectively. In addition, the charge transfer resistance was also improved significantly compared to the other samples.

A polynaphthalenesulfonate (PNS) superplasticizer and its relation to the fluidity of cement paste (w/c = 0.35) has been investigated for three cements at a given dosage of PNS superplasticizer. Chemical properties of three cements were characterized with a XRD, XRF. The additive effects of $Na_2SO_4$ on the fresh concrete with w/c = 0.33 were also estimated by the measurement of compressive strength, slump, air content. The experimental results exhibited that the addition of sodium sulfate 2.6 % to the cement A and C improves slump loss. In case of cement E, the addition of sodium sulfate 1.3 % was effective.

In a recent study by the same authors using a DMTA (Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analyzer), it was found that the 4-aminobenzoic arid (ABA) molecules acted as either a neutralizing agent, or a plasticizer, or a filler, depending on the order of mixing of poly(styrene-co-styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA), ABA, and NaOH. Subsequent to that study, we here pursued the same topic, i.e., the effect of the addition of CsOH (instead of NaOH) and ABA on the morphology of PSSA, but this time, by using a small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) technique. In line with the previous results, the present study with the SAXS technique verified that the order of mixing has a significant effect on the morphology of ionomers. In addition, with the SAXS data and the density values of the ionomers, we attempted to calculate both the number of sulfonate ionic groups per multiplet and the size of the multiplet of the ionomer.

The quaternary alloy (Co/Ni/P/Mn) coatings were prepared using electroless plating on the polypropylene. Compositions of the quaternary alloys (Co/Ni/P/Mn) were controlled by the amount of agents. The composition by EDS, morphology with SEM, film thickness, and surface electrical resistance of the samples were measured. Higher phosphorous content samples give larger electric resistance, thus a relationship is admitted between P content and electric resistance. The corrosivity of the coatings were evaluated by electrochemical methods in the 3.5 wt% NaCl and 5.0 wt% $H_2SO_4$ solutions, respectively. It was concluded that phosphorous addition enhances resistivity in the corrosion.

Calcite(CaCO3) single crystals were grown hydrothermally and transmittance of as grown crystals was measured. Instead of platinium, teflon was lined onto the wall of autoclave to prevent the corrosion of autoclave wall by acidic NH4Cl solution. Spontaneous nucleation and growth of calcite crystal on teflon was reduced considerably by addition of NaCl and /or CH3COOH and applying low temperature gradient. When the temperature gradient exceeded to a few degrees from the critical temperature gradient(6-7℃), spontaneous nucleation and growth was rapidly increased in any hydrothermal solutions. Precise temperature control is thought to be the most important factor for the growth of calcite single crystal by hydrothermal technique. As grown calcite single crytal showed high transmittance compared to natural one by UV-visible analysis.

This study is related to the investigation of the characteristics of phase transfer catalysts on the addition reaction of carbon dioxide and phenyl glycidyl ether(PGE). Quaternary ammonium salts showed a good conversion of PGE at l atm of $CO_2$. Among the quaternary ammonium salts tested, the ones with higher alkyl chain length and with more hydrophilic counter anion showed higher catalytic activity. Polyethylene glycol and crown ether were also effective catalysts when they are used with NaI. High pressure of $CO_2$increased the conversion of PGE by increasing solubility of $CO_2$in NMP. A mechanism of the reaction involving the role of phase transfer catalyst was also proposed.

This study was performed to stabilize the physical properties of Sodium Carbonate Decahydrate that was selected as a highly concentrative thermal energy storage medium. The addition of ARS(additives to prevent supercooling) showed to prevent the supercooling of Na$_{2}$CO$_{3}$.10H$_{2}$O, and the supercooling was decreased below $1.5^{\circ}C$ with ARS of 3 wt% and the addition of PSC(phase separation controller) of 1.5 wt% controlled the phase separation of Na$_{2}$CO$_{3}$ .10H$_{2}$O with the phase change cycles increased from 0 to 1,500, the phase change temperature and the latent heat has changed in the range of 30$\pm$1.$0^{\circ}C$ and 54$\pm$2.0Kcal.kg$^{-1}$ respectively.
