When cystic fluid of Taenia solium metacestodes (CF) was filtrated through Sephacryl S-300 Superfine, major proteins were in fractions III add IV Major protein in fraction III was Band C protein of 150 kDa and that in fraction IV was Band N protein (Choi et of., 1990). When CF was electrophoresed in 0.9% agarose gel and reacted with anti-CF rabbit serum (RACF), two main bands, a long outer and a short inner band, were precipitated, together with 8 minor bands. RACF reacted with fraction III forming the long outer band whereas RACF formed the short infer band with fraction IV in immunoelectrophoresis (IEP) The long outer precipitin band of CF fraction III was similar to antigen B in hydatid fluid (HF) of Oriol et at. (1971), while the short inner band of CF fraction IV was similar to HF antigen 5 of Caption et at. (1967) . When HF was reacted with RACF, the short inner band was immunoprecipitated without forming the long outer band. Common antigenicity between CF and HF seemed to exist in fraction IV rather than in fraction III of CF. Patient sera of neurocysticercosis reacted more frequently with fraction III than with fraction IV.

A kinetics study on the dissolution reaction of zinc-ferrite has been made with aqueous sulfuric acid in various temperature and concentration. Fraction reacted(R) and apparent rate constant(K) increased with increasing temperature and concentration of sulfuric acid solution. The rate of dissolution is shown by $1-(1-K)^{1/3}=Kt$ for the initial stage of the reaction in aqueous sulfuric acid, where K is apparent rate constant, R is fraction reacted and t is reaction time, respectively. Activation energy associated with reaction was determined to be 16.3 kcal/mole. The dissolution of zinc-ferrite in sulfuric acid solution is dissolved by sto-ichiometric composition, but Fe and Zn did not dissolved, respectively.

Strontium barium niobate powders were prepared by NaCl-KCl molten salt, and reaction process and morphology change of strontium barium niobate were investigated as a function of reaction temperature, time, and amount of molten salt. With increasing the reaction temperature and time, the reacted fraction was increased and the morphology of powder was changed from lumpy shape into meedle-like shape. With increasing the amount of molten salt, reacted fraction was increased rapidly, but the morphology of powder was changed from needle-like shape into spherical shape. Strontium barium niobate powder, over 90 % in fraction reacted, was obtained from the reaction conditions at $1000^{\circ}C$ for small flux ratio (=1) and at $650^{\circ}C$ for large flux ratio (=4).

In order to obtain more specific antigenic preparation for the diagnosis of human paragonlmiasis, crude saline extract of whole worm (=PwWWE), secretory.excretory components (PwSEC) and secretion-excretion-free somatic extract (PwSM) of 12 week-old ParagoninBus westermani were filtrated through Sephadex G-200 gel column. The adult Paragonimus worms were obtained from expevimentally infected doge. A total of 11 antigenic solutions was Iyophilised or diluted to adjust protein content of 1mg/ml. To evaluate the antigenicity of crude antigens and fractions, micro-ELISA was done with the sera from P westermani in(ected cases, C. sinensis infected cases and non-infected control cases to detect Paragonimus specific IgG antibody. The results were as follows: 1. When the PwWWE was filtrated through Sephadex G-200 gel, it was separated into three fractions; PwWWE Fr. 1, PwWWE Fr. 2 and PwWWE Fr. 3. The percentage of protein content was 28.0%, 21.6% and 50.4% respectively. The PwSM was also. separated into three fractions; PwSM Fr. 1, PwSM Fr. 2, PwSM Fr. 3. and their percentage of protein content was 41.3%, 38.6% and 20.1%. However, the PwSEC showed different fractionation pattern; i.e. fraction 1 (=PwSEC Fr.1) and 3 (PwSEC Fr. 3) without fraction 2. The percentage of protein content was 14.0% in PwSEC Fr. 1 and 86.0% in PwSEC Fr. 3. 2. When the antigenicity of each Paragonimus crude antigen and fractionated antigen was evaluated for specific IgG aritibody by micro-ELISA in 10 human paragonimiasis sera, PwSEC Fr, 1 was the most potent antigen showing the mean absorbance 1.98. The PwWWE Fr. 1, PwSEC, PwWWE were next to that: their mean absorbance were 1.72, 1.38 and 0.83 respectively. The antigenicity of fractions 2 and 3 was much weaker in binding specific IgG antibody. 3. When the antigens were reacted in micro-ELISA with 10 human clonorchiasis sera, most antigens showed weak reactivity. Each fraction 1 of crude antigens reacted higher than other fractions or crude antigens; the mean absorbance was 0.17 in fraction 1, but in others the absorbances were about 0.06. 4. With non-infected control sera, the result of micro-RLISA revealed almost same pattern with those of the clonorchiasis sera. From the above results, it became apparent that PwWWE Fr. 1, especially PwSEC Fr. 1 was the most potent antigen reacted with Paragonisfaus specific IgG antibody.

The effects of reacted precursors on phase evolution, microstructure, $J_{c}$ and junctional characteristic of the inter-granular contacts were investigated in Ag-sheathed T1-1223 tapes prepared using three kinds of reacted precursors, and compared to those in the tape prepared using an unreacted precursor The precursors were prepared by heat-treating a mixture of Sr-Ba-Ca-Cu-O, $Tl_2$$O_3$, PbO and $Bi_2$$O_3$ powders at $805^{\circ}C$ (precursor I ), $840^{\circ}C$ (precursor II ) and $905^{\circ}C$(precursor III) for 20 min. Tl-1223 phase content, grain size and J\ulcorner in the tapes appeared to increase in an order of precursors I, II and III Compared to tapes prepared using an unreacted precursor, the tapes prewar ed using precursors II and III revealed reduced pore and impurity densities and an enhanced texture. Also characteristic of inter -granular contacts and fraction of strong-links were improved. The improved properties are attributed to enhanced densification resulting from using the reacted precursors.s.

The studies were conducted on the allergic skin reaction of bovine eurytremiasis. In order to confirm the appearance of allergic skin reaction in this disease, a protein fraction of Eurytrema SPP(EPF) was extracted, and it's antigenicity was studied by means of intradermal reaction on the rabbits, goats and bovine. Rabbits used in this studies were divided into three groups: the first group was sensitized with EPF, the second group was sensitized with EPF, and the third group was served as control which is consisted with 5 non-sensitized and 2 saline injected rabbits. Three healthy native goats and bovine also used. Among these, 86 cases were eurytremiasis, 31 cases were fascioliasis and 71 cases non-infected. A protein fraction was also made from adult worm of Fasciola SPP(FPF) and tested the cross reaction between these two different fluke infestations. The results obtained were as follow: 1. Intradermal reaction was appeared in the infected cattle(bovine eurytremiasis) as well as in the EPF sensitized rabbits and goats. 2. In the EPF sensitized rabbits, the wheal of the intradermal reaction reacted the maximum size (increased wheal size of 5.0 to 9.0 mm) in 40 to 60 minutes and erythema in 60 minutes after intradermal injection of EPF antigen. In the EPF sensitized goats, the size of wheal reacted the maximum(increased wheal size of 5.5 to 8.0 mm) in 30 to 40 minutes, and then disappeared in 120 to 180 minutes after injection of EPF antgen. On the contrary, in the control groups of rabbits and goats, the wheal (7.0 mm) produced following antigen injection reached only to 7.5 to 8.5 mm. in 10 minutes without developing erythema, and then perished in 40 to 60 minutes after injection of EPF antigen. In the infected cattle, the wheal of the intradermal reaction reached the maximal sizes(increased wheal size of 4.0 to 11.0 mm) in 15 to 20 minutes and perished in 60 to 90 minutes after injection of EPF antigen. 3. It would be standardized that the positive reaction is above 4.0 mm, the negative below 2.0 mm and the suspective is 3.0 mm of the infected cattle. In the results of intradermal reaction, 87.2%(75 of 86 cases) was positive, 4.7%(4 of 86 cases) negative and 8.1% (7 of 86 cases) was suspective. However, in the non-infected control cattle, the wheal produced following injection disappeared in 30 to 40 minutes without increasing the wheal size in the most subjects or with incresing only to 1.0 to 2.0 mm in a few cattle. 4. In the results of intradermal reaction which were reciprocally tested in EPF sensitized rabbits by FPF antigen and in FPF sensitized. rabbits by EPF antigen, there were cross reacted. In the 31 cases if fascioliasis tested by EPF antigen, 11 cases were not specifically reacted with EPF antigen. Judging from the results of cross reaction in experimental rabbits and natural bovine fascioliasis, it would be expected when both EPF and EPF antigens are given intracutaneously on the same bovine patients of eurytremiasis or fascioliasis, the former antigen will produce the larger wheal in eurytremiasis, while the latter antigen will produce also the larger wheal in fascioliasis.

The present study was undertaken to investigate an effect of ginseng butanol fraction(total saponin) on the hepatic ethanol metabolism, we used experimental animals for the subject of study. When, in case of ADH and MEOS, ginseng butanol fraction was added, enzyme activity was increased in a small dose, and on the contrary, in a large dose, showed inhibitory effect. in catalase, the activity showed no significant effect by adding ginseng butanol fraction. In the light of kinetic aspect, when, in reaction mixture, ethanol and ginseng butanol fraction were concurrently added and reacted, Km value of ADH and MEOS was decreased. After pretreated with ginseng butanol fraction and inducement of acute toxic state by ethanol, the activities of ADH and MEOS were increased to an extent of about 25% compared to controls. But catalase activity was not significantly affected. In case that ginseng butanol fraction was given to mice fed with 5% ethanol instead of water for 60 days, the activities of ADH and MEOS were increased about 20% to 50% compared to ethanol-treated group. On the contrary, catalase activity was not affected. But blood concentrations of ethanol were decreased due to ginseng butanol fraction treatment. All these observations suggested that reduction of ethanol blood concentration should be dependent upon increased activities of ADH and MEOS. Thereby it suggests the recovery from alcohol intoxication can be prompted by treatment with ginseng.

In this study, the oxyfluorination of PAN-based carbon fibers was undertaken at room temperature using fluorine-oxygen mixtures, and the influence of oxyfluorination on properties was investigated. The surface characteristics of the modified fiber were determined by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and dynamic contact angle analyzer. The oxyfluorination of carbon fibers was one of the more effective methods to increase surface wettability by the formation of semicovalent C-F bond and C-O bond depending on reaction conditions. When oxygen mole fraction is increased from 0.5 to 0.9, it is probable that attached fluorine atoms at the surface of the fibers reacted with other components. As increased oxyfluorination time and decreased its pressures, semi-covalent peak is increased at 0.5 of oxygen mole fraction. The total surface free energy of oxyfluorinated carbon fibers decreased with increasing oxygen mole fraction over 0.5. These results indicate that the surface of carbon fibers became much more hydrophilic after the short oxyfluorination. The surface free energy of oxyfluorinated carbon fibers progressively decreased after 10 min treatment. The polar components of surface free energies were however, significantly higher for all oxyfluorinated samples than that for the untreated carbon fiber.

Purity tantalum powder has been produced by sodium reduction of potassium tantalum fluoride($K_2TaF_7$)in a stainless steel bomb. The influence of experimental variable, such as excess of reductant and temperature of reduction on the yield and quality of the Ta powder has been studied. The excesses of reductant were varied from -20%, -10%, 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%. When -20% excess of sodium was used, the un-reacted sodium remained in the reacted product. The yield of 81% of Ta powder has been achieved by reducing 50g of$K_TaF_7$with 5% sodium in excess of stoichiometric amount in presence of 16.8g of sodium chloride in the charge at a reduction temperature of$905{\circ}C$. The proportion of fine fraction(~325mesh) decreased appreciably with the increase of sodium excess, and the yield of tantalum powder improved from 65% to 94%. The average particle size of Ta Powder is improved from 3 microns to 4 microns in the 5% excess sodium.
