Radical copolymerization behavior of 4'-vinylbenzo-15-crown-5, a vinyl monomer having a pendant 15-membared crown ether unit (VCE) with di(ethylene glycol) ethyl ether acrylate (DEGEEA) was carried out in toluene solution using 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator. The copolymers were characterized by means of FT-IR, $^1{H-NMR}$, and $^{13}{C-NMR}$ . The reactivity ratio of VCE and DEGEEA, determined by Fineman-Ross and Kelen-Tudos method, gave values 0.55 for VCE, and 0.11 for DEGEEA respectively.

A large quantity of ethylene glycol(EG) is remained in the effluent after pretreating polyester weight-loss wastewater physicochemically in the fist stage and must be treated biologically in the second stage. Therefore, an excellent EG-utilizing bacteria strain was isolated from the natural system and the optimal culture conditions of the strain were investigated. The optimal culture conditions of temperature, pH, and nitrogen source were found to be 35$^{\circ}C$, 7.5 and ammonium chloride, respectively, when CODCr removal efficiency was more than 90%. The growth of stains and EG removal efficiency was slightly improved by adding elements such as niacin and biotin. With increasing inoculation size in a batch culture, the removal efficiency of EG was conspicuously increased. Growth rate was inhibited when the initial concentration of EG was more then 30g/L. The strain was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on morphological and biological characteristics and named as Pseudomonas sp. EG1.

Ethylene glycol (EG) intoxication in dogs can pose a diagnostic challenge. We investigated the effect of a lethal dose of EG to the Shepherd on blood, urine test, and histopathologic observation. Shepherds were treated orally with EG at $10\;m{\ell}/kg$ body weight. Clinically, EG caused the vomition, depression of central brain. Anion gap was increased, which was decreased pH of blood, The blood osmorality was increased at 3 hours, and BUN and creatinine was increased at 24 hour significantly. The pH of urine decreased. The crystal of calcium oxalate appeared at 6 hours. The amount of crystals increased at 12 and 24 hours. Microscopically, the degeneration of proximal tubules were shown at 1 hour and finally progressed as acute tubular nephrosis at 24 hours. These results suggest that the blood and urine test accompanied with histopathological examination be helpful to investigate the EG intoxication.

Many enzymes require the participation of readily dissociable coenzymes as NAD for thir catalytic activities. The continuous utilization of the enzymes requires the retention and regeneration of the coenzymes. For this purpose, several kinds of macromolecular NAD derivatives have been prepared by covalently attaching NAD to watersoluble polymers. We have prepared poly (ethylene glycol)-bound NAD (PEG-NAD) by coupling N$\^$6/-(2-carboxyethyl)-NAD to one terminal of ${\gamma}$ $\omega$-diaminoly (ethylene glycol) (Mr 3000) with water-soluble carbodiimide. PED-NAD thus obtained has one NAD moiety located at a terminal of the linear, flexible and hydrophilic chain of poly (ethylene glycol). PED-NAD has good coenzyme activity for various dehydrogenases and is applicable in a continuous enzyme reactor. To use these macromolecular NAD derivatives in an enzyme reactor, it si necessary to understand the behavior of the system in which the reactions of dehydrogenases are coupled by the recycling of the NAD derivative. We investigated the kinetic properties of a continuous enzyme reactor containing lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and PEG-NAD. The steady-state behavior of the enzyme reactor is explained by a simple kinetic model.

Multiple cranial and peripheral neuropathies as a delayed sequellae of ethylene glycol poisoning is a less well known clinical entity and its information about long-term electrophysiological and clinical outcomes is limited. We report a 45-year-old male who presented with acute renal failure and subsequently developed multiple cranial neuropathy, respiratory failure, and flaccid tetraparesis. Through sequential electrophysiological studies, we would like suggest that the main pathophysiology of ethylene glycol-related neuropathy is a demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy with secondary axonal degeneration.

Treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution plays an important role to impart certain desirable properties - feel and luster on the surface of polyester fiber. In this process alkali wastewater contains disodium terephthalate, ethylene glycol (EG) and residual sodium hydroxide. In this paper we report a new method containing the pretreatments of derivatization with benzoyl chloride and solvent extraction using pentane. The calibration curve of EG determined by GC/MS-SIM shows a good linearity in the range of 0.1 to $25{\mu}g/mL$ having the standard deviation of ${\leq}8.7%$. The recovery and the detection limit of this method are 91.9-93.7% and $0.05{\mu}g/mL$ respectively.

This study was carried out to select the best cryoprotectant and to establish optimal concentration of the cryoprotectant in ultrarapid freezing of mouse 4-cell embryos and morulae, respectively. We investigated survival of ultrarapid frozen embryos according to various cryoprotectants such as glycerol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Suvival of the embryos frozen at different concentrations (3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 M) of indivisual cryoprotectant was also tested. Preimplantation developmental rate (96.3%, 83/86) of 4-cell mouse embryos treated with 4.0 M ethylene glycol after ultrarapid freezing and thawing was higher than those of other cryoprotectants (glycerol, propylene glycol and DMSO). In the ultrarapid freezing of mouse morulae, the highest developmental rate (98.8%, 89 /90) of the embryos to blastocysts was shown in the group of 5.0 M glycerol. Thus, these results demonstrate that 4.0 M ethylene glycol and 5.0 M glycerol are optimal for ultrarapid freezing of 4-cell mouse embryos and morulae, respectively.

The purposes of this study were to provide the data for composition of ethylene glycol ethers and 2-ethoxyethyl acetate(EEA) exposure assessment of workers in various industrial operations. In this study, 80 thinners were analyzed to identify their composition and the air concentration of 2-ethoxyethyl acetate(EEA) and urinary 2-ethoxyacetic acid(EAA) were measured. In this study the subjects were the total of 183 drawn from 98 workers who were occupationally exposed to EEA and 85 workers who were not. The results were as follows: 1. There were found average 4.2 components in each thinner. 2. There were 90 components(26.9%) in ethylene glycol ethers of total of 334 detected organic solvents 3. Ethoxyethyl acetate, ethoxyethanol, buthoxyethanol, methoxy-ethanol were found in 30(37.5%), 27(33.8%), 19(23.8%), 2thinners(2.5%), respectively and their contents were average 18.5%. 4. Benzene was found 8 thinners(10.0%) of the total 80 surveyed. 5. In the electronic painting workers EEA exposure concentration was the highest, as showed 2.88ppm(0.01~15.1ppm), cases of exceeded threshold limit value(TLV=5ppm) were 7(10.6%) workers among the total of 98 exposed workers. 6. The geometric mean of urinary EEA in exposed workers was 1.61 mg/gcreatinine, and was higher than that of workers who were not exposed. In the electronic painting workers and offset printers, the geometric mean of urinary EAA was the highest showing 2.8 mg/gcreatinine. 7. The correlation coefficient between urinary concentration of EAA and air concentration of EEA was 0.90(P<0.05). The present results suggest that composition of ethylene glycol ethers in thinners must be evaluated when industrial hygiene surveys and biological monitoring are performed.

스티렌, 폴리(에틸렌 글리콜) 메타크릴레이트 (PEG-MMA) 혹은 폴리(에틸렌 글리콜) 디메타크릴레이트 (PEG-diMMA)를 중성 매질에서 무유화제 (emulsifier-free) 유화 중합하여 표면에 에틸렌 글리콜기를 갖는 폴리스티렌 입자를 합성하였고, 이로부터 동결 건조되어진 분말을 제조하였다. 고분자 분말은 FT-TR 분광기로 구조를 확인하였고, 광산란 입도 분석기와 주사 전자 현미경 (SEM)을 이용하여 입자 크기와 분산도를 조사하였다. 스티렌에 대하여 공단량체 PEG-MMA는 2∼5 mol%, PEG-diMMA는 1 mol% 농도 부근에서 균일한 입자 크기를 얻을 수 있었다. 합성된 입자의 표면 전하를 유전 매질 내에서 ELS-8000 광산란법을 이용하여 제타 포텐셜을 측정하였다. 스티렌에 대하여 PEG-MMA 5 mol%에서 183 mV의 아주 높은 제타 포텐셜이 측정되었다.
