Oyster is a nutritionally good food ingredient. Also, oyster is used to make source for taste and flavor. This study tried to investigate optimal condition of hydrolysis of oyster and oyster cooking drip for better amino acid content to make good taste and flavor. And then this study characterized hydrolysate of oyster and oyster cooking drip. Enzymes are Acalase, Flavourzyme, Neutrase, and Protamax. The optimal condition for the highest enzyme activity is given by the company. Under the best condition of each enzymes, they react with the homogenized oyster and oyster cooking drip for 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2, 4, 6 hr. The degree of oysters’ hydrolysis is 13.2±0.1%. But, in the case of using enzyme, the rate of hydrolysis sharply increased as time went on during 2 hr. After 8 hr, the rate is 36.9~40.5%. Protamax showed 27.4±0.4% of hydrolysis rate in 2 hr. And the degree of oyster cooking drop hydrolysis is 42.7±0.1%. The highest of hydrolysate concentration is 72.1±0.1% using protamax. In the case of oyster, it has a similar tendency of all enzymes. Otherwise, the hydrolysate of oyster cooking drip had a difference among the enzymes. Composition of free amino acid of hydrolysate using protamax was investigated how much time showed highest rate of hydrolysis to find best amino acid composition. Hydrolysis using Protamax during 6 hr is selected for best condition.

To investigate production and hydrolysis of levan, the levansucrase enzymes from Zymomonas mobilis ATCC 10988 and Rahnella aquatilis ATCC 33071 were used. The optimum temperature of R. aquatilis levansucrase for levan formation was $37^{\circ}C$, whereas that of Z. mobilis was $4^{\circ}C$, under the experimental conditions. Both levansucrases also catalyzed the reverse levan hydrolysis reaction. Levan hydrolysis reactions from both levansucrases were temperature dependent; high temperature ($20^{\circ}C$) was more favorable than low temperature ($4^{\circ}C$) by 4 times. Fructose was the only product from hydrolysis reaction by both levansucrases, showing that both levansucrases mediated the hydrolysis reaction of exo-enzyme acting. In both enzymes, initial levan hydrolysis activity was almost accounted to 1% of initial levan formation activity. The results allow the estimation of the fructose release rate in enzyme processing conditions.

This study was carried out to examine degradation characteristics of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris in methane fermentation. We measured COD and VS reduction, gas and methane productivity, VFA (volatile fatty acid), respectively. Then we calculated material balance and hydrolysis rates in soluble and solid material. The substrate concentration was controlled from 14 gCOD$_{cr}$/l to 64 gCOD$_{cr}$/l in batch cultures, and HRT (hydraulic retention time) controlled from 2 days to 30 days in continuous experi- ments. The results were as follows. In batch culture, accumulated gas productivity increased with the increase of the substrate concentration. The SS and VSS was removed all about 30% increase of substrate concentration and the most of the degradable material removed during the first 10 days. The curve of gas and methane production rate straightly increased until substrate concentration is 26 gCOD$_{cr}$/l. In continuous culture experiments, the removal rates at HRT 10days were 20% for total COD and TOC, respectively. At longer HRT, there was no increase in the removal efficiency. At HRT 15 days, the removal rates were 30% for SS and VSS, respectively. Soluble organic materials were rapidly degraded, and so there was no accumulated. Soluble COD concentration was not increase regardless of HRT-increasing. That meaned the hydrolysis was one of the rate-limiting stage of methane fermentation. The first-order rate constants of hydrolysis were 0.23-0.28 day$^{-1}$ for VSS, and 0.07-0.08 day$^{-1}$ for COD.

The rate of hydrolysis of insecticidal $O,O-diethyl-{\alpha}-cyanobenzylideneamino-oxyphosphorothioate\;(Volaton^{\circledR})$ has been studied in 25% (v/v) aqueous dioxane. On the basis of solvent effect (pH 6.0; m=0.21, n=1.55, pH 12.0; m=0.42, n=3.14 & $|m|{\ll}|l|$), general base catalysis, hydrolysis product analysis, calculation of molecular orbital (MO) and rate equation, it may be concluded that the hydrolysis of Volaton proceeds through the $A_{AC}2$ mechanism via trigonal bipyramidal $(sp^3d^2)$ intermediate below pH 7.0, while above pH 9.0 the hydrolysis proceeds through the $B_{AC}2$ mechanism. Hydrolysis reactivity of Volaton depends on positive charge strength $(p{\gg}{\alpha}C_2)$ rather than steric hindrance. In the range between pH 7.0 and pH 9.0, these two reactions occur competitively.

The structural properties of cellulose are significantly changed with the progress of hydrolysis reaction. The effects of changes on such properties of cellulosic substrate as crystallinity, amicessibility of enzyme to the active site of cellulose surface, and particle size on the kinetics of enzymatic hydrolysis have been studied. Among those physical studies, the apparent surface active site of cellulose particle was found to have the most significant effect on the hydrolysis kinetics. Based on the experimental results, the adsorption affinity of enzyme and hydrolysis rate were mainly influenced by the surface roughness of cellulose particle. The extent of accesssible active site may be expressed as the change of particle diameter. The Langmuir isotherm was proposed in terms of enzyme activity to explain the actual action of enzyme protein.

The efficiency of microwave-assisted acid hydrolysis of seaweeds for the production of ethanol was investigated and its effect on hydrolysis into reducing sugar and fermentation into ethanol evaluated as compared with those by conventional heating. A brown seaweed, Laminaria japonica (10-100g/L) was hydrolysed under dilute acidic condition (0.5N $H_2SO_4$, $100^{\circ}C$) with two sorts of heating: microwave irradiation for ${\leq}10min$ and conventional heating for 10-60min. Microwave-assisted hydrolysis was shown to be more efficient. A similar range of reducing sugar and ethanol yields as with the conventional autoclave heating procedure(${\geq}30min$) was observed, but it was obvious that production of ethanol from microwave-assisted hydrolysis had a 3 times faster reaction rate leading to very short production times, lower energy consumption/loss than from the conventional heating mode, and higher biomass loading without significant reducing ethanol yield, thus microwave-assisted acid hydrolysis is a potential alternative method for more effective hydrolysis of Laminaria japonica.

This study was carried out to investigate change of ginsenoside contents in red and fresh ginseng according to root part and age by hydrolysis. Neutral total ginsenoside contents by hydrolysis in 6-year main root and lateral root were significantly increased than those by non-hydrolysis, as 41.6 and 32.8%, respectively. However, there was no significant difference in red ginseng. In fresh ginseng, ginsenoside contents of the protopanaxatriol group such as Re, Rf, $Rg_1$, $Rg_2$, and $Rh_1$ were not significantly different, but $Rb_1$, $Rb_2$, $Rb_3$, Rc, and Rd showed significant difference. The increase rate of neutral total ginsenoside content by hydrolysis was higher in epidermis-cortex than stele. Also, the neutral total ginsenoside content was fine root > rhizome > lateral root > main root, respectively. While there was no tendency towards the increase of ginsenoside by hydrolysis with the increase of root age in fine root and rhizome, there was significant decrease in main root and lateral root.

The tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris)-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrotrifluoroacetanilide was kinetically studied. On the contrary to the previously reported results (R. M. Pollack and T. C.Dumsha, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1973, 95, 4463), the dependence of the rate on [Tris] consists of an initial curve portion and a subsequent linear increase. This indicates that erroneous conclusions were made in the reported work due to the insufficient amount of data. The initial portions of the rate[Tris] profiles are attributed to the catalyzed breakdown of the tetrahedral intermediate, and the linear portions to the general base-catalyzed water attack at the substrate.

Furfurylidene acetophenone derivatives were synthesis, it was measured that hydrolysis made use of UV at a wide pH $1.0{\sim}13.0$ range in 30% $dioxane-H_2O$ solution, $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. On the basis of general base catalysis, substitutent effect, confirmation of hydrolysis products, it was measured the reaction rate of furfurylidene acetophenone derivatives for the pH change. It maybe concluded that a part was unrelated to pH and another part was in proportion to concentration of hydroxide ion : Above pH 10.0, It was in proportion to concentration of hydroxide ion, a part having no concern with pH was added to the neutral $H_2O$ molecule. From the result of measurement the reaction rate, hydrolysis of furfurylidene acetophenone derivatives confirmed to the irreversible first order. Through measurement the substituent effect, It found that reaction rate was accelerated by electron attracting group. Also, From the result of final product, There were furfural and acetophenone. On the basis of these findings, Hydrolysis for the furfurylidene acetophenone derivative was proposed a fitting mechanisms.

The aim of the current study is to identify the dimerization and decomposition kinetics of the F-$D_M$ type. The regeneration of F-VS from $F_iF_j-D_M$ or the reversibility of the dimerizations were investigated. The order of real rate constants of the dimerization('$K_D{^{ij}}$) would seem to be similar to that of rate constants of a dimerization($K_D{^{ij}}$) for VS dyes at a given pH because of the constancy of the equilibrium constants($K_a{^j}$-value). The reverse reactions of the $D_M$ types are appeared to occur in two steps, the deprotonation of ${\alpha}$-carbon of the $D_M$ types and disproportionation. The ratio of the decomposition of the $D_M$ type to F-Hy and F-VS appears to be related with the ratio of $K_i/K_j$. Similarities were also found among various other reactions, including homo- and mixed dimerization. VS dyes undergoing fast hydrolysis have difficulty in forming a dimer. The higher the reactivity with cellulose or hydroxide ion, the smaller the dimerization. The easiness of the dimerization was thus found to be inversely proportional to the rate of hydrolysis.
