Flax seed(Linseed, Linum usitatissimum L.) and its oil, a richest source of alpha-linolenic acid(ALA)(${\omega}-3$), contain saturated fatty acids, neurotoxic cyanogen glycosides and immuno-suppressive cyclic-nonapeptides. Present paper describes the development of two chemical processes, Process-A and -B, to remove saturated fatty acids and to destroy cyclic nonapeptides and cyanogen glycosides from flax seed oil. Process-A consists of three major steps, i.e., extraction of fatty acid mixture by alkaline saponification, removal of saturated fatty acid by urea-complexation, and triglyceride reconstruction of unsaturated fatty acid via fatty acyl-chloride activation using oxalyl chloride. Process-B consists of preparation of fatty acid ethyl ester by transesterification, elimination of saturated fatty acid ester by urea-complexation, and reconstruction of triglyceride by interesterification with glycerol-triacetate (triacetin). The destruction of lipophilic cyclic nonapeptide during saponification or transesterification processes could be demonstrated indirectly by the disappearance of antibacterial activity of bacitracin, an analogous cyclic-decapeptide. The cyanogen glycosides were found only in the dregs after hexane extraction, but not in the flax seed oil. The reconstructed triglyceride of flax seed oil, obtained by these two different pathways after elimination of saturated fatty acid and toxic components, showed agreeable properties as edible oil in terms of taste, acid value, iodine and peroxide value, glycerine content, and antioxidant activity.

A simple and sensitive hydrogel-based detecting gel has been presented for the qualitative determination of cyanogen chloride(CK) using Konig reaction. To optimize Konig reaction conditions, the effects of pyridine and barbituric acid concentration were investigated. Under the optimized conditions, CK gas concentration was directly related with absorbance change at 567 nm. Based on aqueous solution test results, we finally prepared CK detecting hydrogel by absorbing pyridine and barbituric acid solution. Color change of the prepared CK detecting hydrogel was clearly observed when the detecting gel was exposed to 10 ppm CK gas.

Samples of active carbon of $1150\;m^2/g$ surface area were impregnated with ammoniacal salts of copper, chromium and silver, with and without triethylenediamine. The samples of impregnated carbon were aged at $50^{\circ}C$, with and without 90% RH (relative humidity), for a little more than one year and chemically evaluated periodically. Initially copper (II) and chromium (VI) reduced very fast in the samples in humid atmosphere to the extent of 30% and 60% respectively in four months. These values were found to be unaffected by the presence of triethylenediamine (TEDA) indicating that the chemical did not retard the reduction process of chromium (VI) and copper (II). However, in the absence of humidity the reduction of the impregnants was significantly less (10-12%, w/w) in four months. It was quite evident; therefore, that the moisture was mainly responsible for the reduction of chromium (VI) and copper (II) species in impregnated carbons. The prolonged ageing of the samples with and without triethylenediamme after four months with and without humid atmosphere showed that the extent of reduction of chromium (VI) was very low, i.e. 5-10% and of copper (II) was 2-25%. Silver is not reduced due to carbon, as it remained unchanged in concentration on storage. The impregnated carbon samples (100 g) without triethylenediamine, which were aged at room temperature for 5 years in absence of humidity and unaged when evaluated against cyanogen chloride (CNCl) at a concentration of 4 mg/L and airflow rate of 30 lpm showed a high degree of protection (80- 110 minutes).

A flew spectroscopic method was developed to determine microquantities of nicotine with cyanogen chloride and pyrazolon. Absorption maximum of tile derivative solution appeared at 520nm. The color formed in the proposed method was stable for at least 30 min. at pH 7.5, and followed the Lambert-Beer's law between tile limits of 1 and 5 micrograms of nicotine. The relative errors in burley and flue-cured tobacco leaves were $\pm5%$ in comparison with the Griffith method.

충전형 저온 플라즈마 반응기 내에서의 가스 상 시안화합물의 분해특성을 반응기로 투입되는 방전 전력, 시안화합물의 유입농도, 운반기체인 공기의 습도 및 반응기 내의 충전물질 등을 변수로 연구하였다. 저온플라즈마 방전의 경우 시안화합물들의 분해는 트리클로로에틸렌에 비하여 상대적으로 매우 낮은 효율을 보였다. 그러나 플라즈마 방전 영역에 알루미나 또는 백금/알루미나 구슬을 충전한 경우 분해효율이 크게 높아졌으며 이는 플라즈마 반응과 더불어 백금/알루미나의 촉매작용에 의한 촉매 반응이 동시에 작용함에 기인한 것으로 판단된다.

Lectins and its A- and B-chains from Korean mistletoe (Viscum album var. coloratum) were isolated by affinity chromatography on the Sepharose 4B modified by lactose-BSA conjugate synthesized by reductive amination of ligand (lactose) to .epsilon.-amino groups of lysine residues of spacer (BSA) after reduction by $NaCNBH_3$. The lactose-BSA conjugate was coupled to Sepharose 4B activated by cyanogen bromide. The molecular weight determined by SDS-PAGE were a 31 kD of A-chain and a 35kD of B-chain. Amino acid analysis and N-terminal sequencing were performed. The effects of pH, temperature and guanidine chloride on the conformation of the lectin were investigated by measuring its intrinsic fluorescence and compared with its hemagglutinating activities. Blue shift was detected on the acidic pH and there was a close relationship between activities and conformation of the lectin. Under denaturing conditions, the tryptophan emission profile of lectin showed typical denaturaiional red shift which also correspond to the conformations and activity of lectin.

화학적 무기 중 혈액작용제는 전자전달계 내 효소의 철 이온과 반응하고 세포호흡을 정지시켜 사망을 초래한다. 혈액작용제는 활성탄의 미세공보다 분자크기가 작아 화학적 흡착이 유일한 제독방법이다. 본 연구는 SG 생활안전에서 개발한 SG-1 가스 여과기를 이용하여 혈액작용제 시아노겐 클로라이드(CK) 가스의 유입에 따른 유동해석을 수행하였다. 구리, 은, 아연 및 몰리브데늄 이온이 첨착된 ASZM TEDA 활성탄을 적용하여 가스 여과기 제작 시험 규정에 따라 화학적 흡착 모사를 수행하였으며 흡착 Kinetic을 적용하기 위해 선 수행된 흡착 베드에서 CK 가스 흡착 실험 결과를 분석하였다. 화학적 흡착을 통해 발생되는 가스 여과기 내부 압력강하 및 가스 흡착 질량 등 주요 변수의 동적거동을 예측하였다. CFD에서 다공성 물질을 적용할 때 사용하는 Ergun 방정식 대신 Granular와 Packed bed를 사용하여 활성탄 적용 가능 결과를 확인하였으며 시간에 따른 흡착 및 유속에 따른 흡착의 유동 해석에 대한 동적 모사를 수행하였다.
