To utilize collagen as an implantable biomateriall the mcct widely used bovine skin origin Type I collagen was investigated Pepsin treated, Type I atelocollagen was extracted and crosslinked by the ultraviolet(W) ray with wavelength of 254nm or by various concentrations of glutaraldehyde to produce collagen membranes. The crosslink rates of the specimens were observed by a polarized light microscope, a scanning electron microscope, and a Fourier transform infrared (FT-lR) spectrometer. The followings are concluded 1. The collagen membranes produced by both 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution and 254nm UV ray irra- diation demonstrated similar morphologies on polarized light microscopic and scanning electron microscopic views. 2. The chemical structures of the crosslinked membranes by glutaraldehyde over 2.5% in concentrations revealed similar intensities to that of the UV ray irradiated one in FT-lR investigation. 3. To obtain optimal croulink in bovine stalin origin Type I atelocollagen, 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution or UV ray irradiation with 254nm wavelength is acceptable.

Ethanolic tetracarbonylhydridoferrate solution combined with glutaraldehyde is a very effective reducing agent for the selective transformation of two moles of secondary amines into pentane-1,5-diamine derivatives. A variety of aliphatic secondary amines react with ferrate-glutaraldehyde at room temperature under carbon monoxide to give the corresponding N-substituted pentane-1,5-diamines in reasonable yields.

Biological oxidation of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose using permeated and immobilized cells of Gluconobacter suboxydans was carried out to investigate the optimum reaction condition. The stabilization effect of cross-linking agents such as glutaraldehyde, tannic acid, and polyethylene imine to prevent the leakage of enzymes from beads containing permeated and immobilized cells of G. suboxydans was examined by the production of L-sorbose from the mixture of D-sorbitol and gluconic acid. The protein concentration effused from immobilized beads treated with only glutaraldehyde was $5.2\mug/m\ell$ after 20 h. The beads of G. suboxydans immobilized with alginate and cross-linked with 0.3% glutaraldehyde was the most useful for the oxidation of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose.

A diaphorase enzyme electrode for the catalytic reduction of NAD+ , the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, has been prepared. The enzyme layer grew spontaneously over an aminoethanethiol self assembled monolayer on a go ld plate electrode. The growth was accomplished by simply dipping the electrode covered by the aminoethanethiol monolayer into a solution containing both glutaraldehyde and diaphorase. We suggested that the glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking reagent was attached to the amino groups of the aminoethanethiol monolayer and the diaphorase enzyme molecules were bound to free aldehyde groups of the glutaraldehyde. Further attachments of the enzyme molecules over the bound enzyme molecules continued with the bridging of the glutaraldehyde. In frequency measurements with a quartz crystal microbalance, the frequency decrease was much more than it was for that of the enzyme monolayer formation, and an enzyme layer thicker than a monolayer was formed. The modified electrode was employed to reduce NAD+ , using diffusional methyl viologen as an electron transfer mediator. The NAD+ was electrocatalytically reduced, and the catalytic current was almost equivalent to that with the multilayered electrode of ten enzyme layers.

Background: In cardiac surgery, especially in the reconstruction of vascular structures and intracardiac defects, glutaraldehyde has usually been used as the reagent for fixing porcine or bovine pericardial tissues. But the well-known problem of calcification or cytotoxicity of glutaraldehyde motivates the search for a replacement. The aim of this study is to investigate the physical, mechanical, and biochemical characteristics of bovine pericardial tissues fixed with genipin, which is known to be a less toxic and more natural fixing reagent. Materials and Methods: Bovine pericardial tissues were fixed with different concentrations and conditions of glutaraldehyde and genipin. To determine the physical, mechanical, and biochemical differences among different concentrations and conditions, we divided the tissue into 18 groups by concentration, the addition of organic solvents, and the timing of adding the organic solvents, and compared the characteristics of each group. Results: Tensile strength, physical activity, and thermal stability tests revealed that the tissues fixed with glutaraldehyde were better with regard to mechanical strength and biochemical durability. However, the difference was not significant statistically. Conclusion: Genipin can be used as an alternative crosslinking agent for pericardial tissue, considering given its physical, mechanical, biochemical characteristics and low cytotoxicity comparable to glutaraldehyde. However, further studies are needed on the immune reaction and the long term changes in genipin-fixed tissues in the human body.

쏠비톨 생산을 위해서 Zymomonas mobilis의 Cell wall 투과성을 높인 후 alginate에 고정화 하였다. 투과성을 높이는데 toluene이 가장 효과적인 것으로 나타났으나, 3회의 회분공정을 행한 바 glucose-fructose oxidoreductase의 유출, 손실로 인하며 쏠비톨 생산이 급격히 저하되었다. 효소의 활성도를 장시간 유지하기 위하여 투과성을 높인 cell을 상온에서 1시간 동안 0.25%(v/v)의 glutaraldehyde로 처리한 후 alginate에 고정화 하여 연속공정을 행하였을 때 210시간 동안 높은 전환효율(82%)을 보였으며, 희석비율 $0.18\;h^{-1}$에서 $7.2{\sim}7.5\;g/l-h$의 쏠비톨 productivity를 얻었다. 이는 glutaraldehyde로 처리하지 않고 alginate에 cell을 고정화하였을 때에 비해서 효소의 안정성이 아주 높은 것으로 나타났다.

This study aimed to demonstrate the bioadhesive characteristics of gelatin biofilm to rat skin. The biofilm was manufactured from gelatin extracted from the acetic acid treated-skin of the yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares. The bioadhesive strength of tuna gelatin biofilm was compared to that of porcine gelatin biofilm. The tuna gelatin biofilm exhibited a higher bioadhesive strength than the porcine gelatin biofilm. Gelatin biofilm was subjected to glutaraldehyde treatment at different concentrations, temperatures and pH in order to improve its bioadhesive strength. Glutaraldehyde treatment improved the bioadhesive strength of gelatin biofilm up to three-fold. The bioadhesive strength of glutaraldehyde treated-biofilm was significantly decreased by application of sodium borohydride.

Aspergillus niger유래의 $\beta$-glucosidase를 (1)glutarald-ehyde를 가교제로 한 chitin과 chitosan담체에 covalent linkage (2)Amberite IRA93과 DEAE-cellulose담체에 succinylation시킨 후 흡착, 그리고 (3)alginarte, polyacry-lamide를 각종 가교제를 이용 entrapment등의 방법으로 고정화 하였다. Glutaraldehyde를 가교제로써 chitosan을 활성화시킨후 $\beta$-glucosidase를 고정화 시켰을때 효소활성 회수율이 31.5%로 가장 높았고, 또한 column형 반응기에서의 15일 경과 후 효소활성 유지도도 69%로서 가장 우수하였다. 또한 succinylation시킨 효소를 Amberite IRA93 담체에 흡착시켰을 때 효소활성 회수율은 24.7%였고 효소 활성유지도는 62%였다. 반면에 entra-pment 방법에 의한 $\beta$-glucosidase의 고정화는 효소의 계속적인 용출로 $\beta$-glucosidase의 고정화에는 적합하지 않았다. Chitosan담체에서의 고정화 최적조건을 조사한 결과 가교제인 glutaraldehyde의 최적농도는 0.4%였고, glutaraldehyde의 최적 반응 pH는 4.8이었다. 또한 column형 반응기를 이용하여 cellobiose로부터 glucose로의 전환율을 조사하여 고정화 효소의 효용성을 검토하였다.

Ibuprofen-loaded gelatin microcapsule, a solid form of microcapsules simultaneously containing ethanol and ibuprofen in water-soluble gelatin shell was previously reported to improve the dissolution of drug. In this study, to retard the initial high dissolution of ibuprofen from gelatin microcapsule, the ibuprofen-loaded cross-linked gelatin microcapsule was prepared by treating an ibuprofen-loaded gelatin microcapsule with glutaraldehyde and its dissolution was evaluated compared to ibuprofen powder and gelatin microcapsule. The ibuprofen-loaded crosslinked microcapsule treated with glutaraldehyde for 10 and 60 sec gave significantly higher dissolution rates than did ibuprofen powder. Furthermore, the dissolution rate of ibuprofen from the cross-linked microcapsule treated for 10 sec was similar to that from gelatin microcapsule. However, the dissolution rate of ibuprofen from the cross-linked microcapsule treated for 60 sec decreased significantly compared to gelatin microcapsule, suggesting that the treatment of gelatin microcapsule with glutaraldehyde for 60 sec could cross-link the gelatin microcapsule. Furthermore, the cross-linking of gelatin microcapsule markedly retarded the release rate of ibuprofen in pH 1.2 simulated gastric fluid compared to gelatin microcapsule. However, the cross-linking of gelatin microcapsule with glutaraldehyde hardly changed the size of gelatin microcapsules, ethanol and ibuprofen contents encapsulated in gelatin microcapsule. Thus, the ibuprofen-loaded cross-linked gelatin microcapsule could retard the initial high dissolution of poorly water-soluble ibuprofen.
