The polygalacturonase (PG) production in rotten apples by Botryosphaeria dothidea was purified by using gel filtration and ion exchange column chromatography, and the biochemical characters of PG were investigated. The purified PG appeared as a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) with approximate molecular weight of 49 kilodalton (kDa). The molecular weight was equal to the native molecular weight estimated by gel filtration. The Km and Vmax values of PG were 0.51 mg/ml and 90.9 $\mu$M/min/ml, respectively. Optimum pH was 4.0~5.0, and the PG activity was stable from pH 5.0~10.0. Optimum temperature of the enzyme activity was 4$0^{\circ}C$. The PG activity was relatively stable at 2$0^{\circ}C$, but it was reduced 45% at 4$0^{\circ}C$ and completely inactivated at 8$0^{\circ}C$. The PG activity was considerably inhibited by Cu2+, Zn2+, SDS and EDTA, whereas it was not effected by Ca2+, K+, Mg2+ or Na+ ions.

The whole body extract of Lunella coronata coreensis agglutinated nonspecifically human and other animal erythrocytes. A new lectin was purified by the following procedures: 0.15 M NaCl extraction, salt fractionation, gel filtration, anionic and cationic ion exchange column chromatographies. Through these purification procedures, specific activity of LCC-I was increased from 276 to 9714.3 units/mg, And on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, LCC-I exhibited one major band. A molecular weight of LCC-I was assumed to be 20,000 by sodium dodesyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified lectin was relatively stable at various pH and heat. Among the tested sugars, lactose and lactulose inhibited lectin activity at a concentration of 6.25 mM, respectively.

Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) was purified in Micrococcus luteus (M. luteus) using streptomycin sulfate and amomonium sulfate fractionation, three times by a Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and a DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography. The enzyme was purified 72 folds with a 11% recovery and showed a single band in a nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. The M. W. of PNP turned out to be 1.35 * 10$^{5}$ delton in G-150 gel filtration chromatography. The stability of the enzyme was increased by treatment with both substrates, MgCI$_{2}$ or CaCI$_{2}$, but not significantly kcal/mol. M. luteus PNP catalyzed the phosphorolysis of inosine, deoxyinosine, guanosine and deoxyguanosine with the Km value of 1.5 * 10$^{-3}$ M, 3.0 * 10$^{-3}$ M, 5.0 * 10$^{-4}$ M, respectively. The enzyme was reacted with adenosine, 1-methylnosine and 1-methylguanosine as substrates, which were shown to be poor substrates for mammalian enzyme.

Alkaline protease producing bacteria were isolated from soil and identified as Bacillus sp. CW-1121. It was found that the production of alkaline protease reached to maximum in 5 day of fermentation at 4$0^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography. The homogeneity of the purified enzyme was verified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme was purified 5.72 fold and yield of the enzyme purification was 16.71%. When the purified enzyme was applied to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the molecular weight was estimated to be 55, 000.

Doped and undoped barium hexaferrite powders ($BaFe_{12}O_{19}$, $Ba_{0.7}Ti_{0.3}Fe_{12}O_{19}$ and $Ba_{0.7}La_{0.3}Fe_{12}O_{19}$) were produced by the sol-gel method. The effects of substituting elements were studied in terms of the magnetic properties of barium hexaferrite powders. The magnetic properties were remarkably changed by the substitution of $La^{3+}$ and $Ti^{4+}$ ions for the $Ba^{2+}$ ion and were accompanied by oxygen deficiency in the $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$. Coercivities ($H_C$) from 4200 to 5100 Oe, remanences ($M_R$) from 22 to 49 emu/g and saturation magnetizations ($M_S$) from 41 to 73 emu/g were obtained for different samples. The obtained results were discussed in detail.

Electrochemical studies on charge transfer reactions across the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) have greatly attracted researcher's attentions due to their wide applicability in research fields such as ion sensing and biosensing, modeling of biomembranes, pharmacokinetics, phase-transfer catalysis, fuel generation and solar energy conversion. In particular, there have been extensive efforts made on developing sensing platforms for ionic species and biomolecules via gelifying one of the liquid phases to improve mechanical stability in addition to creating microscale interfaces to reduce ohmic loss. In this review, we will mainly discuss on the basic principles, applications and future aspects of various sensing platforms utilizing ion transfer reactions across the ITIES. The ITIES is classified into four types : (i) a conventional liquid/liquid interface, (ii) a micropipette supported liquid/liquid interface, (iii) a single microhole or an array of microholes supported liquid/ liquid interface on a thin polymer film, and (iv) a microhole array liquid/liquid interface on a silicon membrane. Research efforts on developing ion selective sensors for water pollutants as well as biomolecule sensors will be highlighted based on the use of direct and assisted ion transfer reactions across these different ITIES configurations.

Various methods such as lel-mtration on Sephadex G-SO, 75, 100 Sephacry, and Ultro gel, and lon-exchanle chromatoaraphy on Amberilte and carboxymethyl (CM)-cellulose, and Fast Protein liquid Chromatolraphy (FPLC) were applied for the purification of enterotoxin B from Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 14458 and compared one another. lon-exchanle chromatography on Amberllte resin was good enough to remove non-entrotoxln materials in culture, convlnient to use and fast although tbe purity was less tban 70%. However, CM-cellulose showed to be better purity and yield tban those of Amberilte resin. The yields of these two resins for ion-exchange cbromatograpby were about 70% and 75%, respectively. When the gel-filtration methods on Sepbadex G-50, 75, 100, Sepbacryl, and Ultro lei were applied, the purities were about 90%. FPLC was found to be tbe most efficient metbod in terms of purity (96%) and speed. For the purification of sample with large volume, particularly, tbe combined metbod, gel-mtration after Amberlite can be also used efficiently. Tbe purified toxin was found to be identical to type B enterotoxin used for reference standard by Oucbterlony immunodiffusion test.

EPA and DHA extracted from methyl esterified squid oil were purified by silver exchanged resin, silver nitrate-impregnated silica gel, silver exchanged zeolite, and silica gel column chromatography, among which column chromatography using mixture of silver exchanged resin and silica gel (10% by weight) showed the best result. By this simple purification method, EPA and DHA were concentrated from 12.5 to 27.9% (yield, 86,0%) and from 21.7 to 49.5% (yield, 87.3%), respectively. Silver exchanged resin had additional advantages of outstanding reusability and simple recovery of silver.
