백색부후균에 의한 리그닌의 분해양상을 검토하기 위해 리그닌 분해능이 우수하고 laccase활성이 높은 LKY-7 및 C. versicolor-13 균주와 manganese peroxidase 활성은 비교적 높으나 laccase활성이 전혀 나타나지 않는 LSK-27 균주로 lignosulfonate를 처리하였다. LKY-7 과 C. versicolor-13 균주에서는 lignosulfonate의 중합화 현상이 관찰되었으며 중합화는 laccase 활성 과 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. LSK-27 균주에서는 lignosulfonate의 고분자 영역이 분해되면서 탈중합화가 일어났으며 리그닌 분해 효소로는 manganese peroxidase만 검출되었다. 보조기질로 glucose를 첨가한 결과, LKY-7 균주에서는 laccase 활정이 각소하면서 중합화 현상이 어느 정도 감소하였으나 C. versicolor-13 균주는 laccase 활성의 증가와 함께 중합화도 촉진되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 LSK-27 균주에서도 glucose 첨가에 의해 manganese peroxidase 활성이 증가되면서 lignosulfonate의 중합화가 관찰되었다. lignosulfonate 중합화에는 laccase 뿐만 아니라 manganese peroxidase도 관여하며 보조기질로서 탄소원의 종류도 영향을 미칠것으로 검토되었다.

In the presence of laccase, low molecular weight (M.W.) fractions from lignosulfonate (M.W. 97 kD) were produced. By Sephadex column chromatography, four lower M.W. fractions of 9 kD, 1.8 kD, 1 kD and 0.85 kD were identified. The addition of acetovanillone (AV) or acetosyringone (AS) enhanced to the degradation of lignosulfonate with fungal laccase. During this process, there were found new generation of lower M.W. fractions, e.g. approximately 20 kD, 1.8 kD, 1 kD and 0.85 kD for AV, and 20 kD, 3 kD, 1 kD and 0.85 kD for AS, respectively. The quantities of lower M.W. products (especially the fractions of M.W. 1 kD and 0.85 kD) were larger than those in the controls. Also, its degradation became more active in the presence of AS than AV. The presence of AS or AV seems to prevent the re-polymerization of degraded lignosulfonate by the laccase.

To find the role of polyphenol oxidase in lignin biodegradation, chracteristics of extracellular polyphenol oxidase activity from Lentinus edodes JA01 was investigated. Polyphenol oxidase had its optimum activity at pH 4.5 and $45^{\circ}C$ respectively. Also, the enzyme was very unstable in various pHs and comparatively heat stable up to $60^{\circ}C$. In $lignosulfonate-NH_4$ salts medium, the growth rate of L.edodes JA 01 was relatively slow and polyphenol oxidase activity appeared 2 and 14 days after inoculation. No significant relationships were found between polyphenol oxidase activity and the amounts of lignosulfonate present in the culture medium.

This work highlights extraction and removal of Lignosulfonate using sunflower oil-Tri-n-octylamine (TOA) system in bulk liquid membrane transport. Maximum extraction and recovery percentages of 92.4% and 75.2% were achieved. Optimum manifold operating conditions were: 4 vol.% TOA, $2{\pm}0.1$ feed phase pH, 300 rpm stirring speed, at $40^{\circ}C$ with 0.2 (M) $Na_2SO_4$ solution. 1:2 (organic/aqueous) and 1:1 (aqueous/aqueous) phase ratios produced best results. Extraction (36.85 kJ/mol) was found to be intermediate controlled and stripping (54.79 kJ/mol) was chemical reaction controlled. Kinetic estimation of data with higher rate constants for stripping vis-${\grave{a}}$-vis extraction showed latter to be rate determining.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects on fermentation characteristics of rumen microorganism by different types and levels of lignosulfonate treated soybean meal (LSBM) in in vitro test and rumen simulation continuous culture (RSCC) system in dairy cows. The experiment I was control and 12 treatments (each with 3 replications) in vitro test to demonstrate composition of different types of treatments with lignosulfonate (Desulfonate, Na, Ca and solution) and levels (2, 4 and 8%) of soybean meal in the dairy cow diet. LSBM source treatments in the dairy cow diet showed pH value, $NH_3$-N concentration and total VFA concentration lower than control at all levels and incubation times (p<0.05). Dry matter digestibility of LSBM source treatments showed lower than control (p<0.05). Gas production and rumen microbial synthesis was decreased by rumen microbial fermentation for incubation times. Undegradable protein (UDP) concentration of all LSBM treatments was decreased for incubation times, and significantly higher than control (p<0.05). In the experiment II compared diets of the control, LSBM Na 2%, LSBM Sol 2%, which are high performance to undegradable protein (UDP) concentration experiment I in vitro test, and heated treatment lignosulfonate (LSBM Heat) 2% in the dairy cow diet from four station RSCC system ($4{\times}4$ Latin square). A rumen microbial fermentation characteristic was stability during 12~15 days of experimental period in all treatments. The pH value of LSBM treatments was higher than control treatment (p<0.05). The $NH_3$-N concentration, VFA concentration and rumen microbial synthesis of LSBM treatments were lower than control (p<0.05). The undegradable protein (UDP) showed LSBM Na 2% (45.28%), LSBM Sol 2% (43.52%) and LSBM Heat 2% (43.49%) higher than control (41.55%), respectively (p<0.05). Those experiments were designed to improve by-pass protein of diet and milk protein in the dairy cows. We will conduct those experiments the in vivo test by LSBM treatments in dairy cows diet.

The pine bark from mechanical pulp industry was cooked with bisulfite liquor, and the chemical and physical properties of the spent liquor after cooking for 90 minutes, which allowed partial defibration were determined. Lignosulfonate or lignin-related materials in the spent liquor have a molecular weight of approximately 3,000, which is lower than that of commercial lignosulfonate (C-LS) prepared from wood. The sulfonic equivalent weight calculated by colloid titration was 307 for C-LS, 238~239 for spent liquor. The contents of lignosulfonic acid and phenolic hydroxyl groups on $C_9$ unit of lignin in the spent liquor were 0.98~0.99, and 1.51~1.66, respectively. These values were remarkably higher than those of C-LS. Especially the content of phenolic hydroxyl group was almost twice that of C-LS. The viscosity of spent liquor after freeze drying was very low compared to C-LS. The dispersing ability of spent liquor was almost equivalent to or more than that of C-LS.

The dispersion of calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$) in polypropylene (PP) and the effect of $CaCO_3$ size on the crystallinity of PP were studied. Polymer composite usually suffers from the brittleness when reinforced with inorganic fillers. The problem is generally related to the size and dispersion of fillers. First, the dispersion was studied for the nanosize $CaCO_3$ with 15~40 nm average diameter. To enhance the dispersibility in PP, the surface of the $CaCO_3$ was treated with sodium lignosulfonate (SLS). $CaCO_3$/PP composites were prepared via melt compounding. The $CaCO_3$ coated with more than 3 wt% SLS was uniformly distributed within the PP matrix, while the uncoated $CaCO_3$ formed aggregated structures in the PP. Even with 30 wt%, the SLS-$CaCO_3$ was well dispersed in the PP matrix. Also, the transition enthalpy of $CaCO_3$/PP increased and the full-width of half maximum of the crystallization peak decreased regardless of SLS coating and size of $CaCO_3$. However, the crystallinity of PP was more influenced by nano $CaCO_3$. These results imply that the nano $CaCO_3$ coated with SLS may reduce the brittleness of polymer composites.

The effect of calcium lignosulfonate (CLS) on the early hydration characteristics for clinker minerals was investigated. In the presence of CLS and unsufficient gypsum The hydration of $C_3$A lowered CLS adsorption to form ettrin-gite and the residual CLS in the liquid phase accelerated the solubility of C4AF hydration. As the result unreacted $Fe^{3+}$ in the liquid phase would be precipitated gelatinously on $C_3$ hydrates and the hydration of $C_3$ could be retarded. But by addition of optimum gypsum into the cement with CLS the presence of $Fe^{3+}$ in the liquid phase were lowered and $C_3$ hydration would be normallized.

Productivity of bacterial cellulose by Acetobacter xylinum GS11 was investigated in the several culture conditions. In various carbon sources, others with the exception of glucose were not found to be effective for cellulose production, and 2% was better in yield than other concentration of glucose. Yeast extract and soytone among several organic nitrogens were effective, but inorganic nitrogen sources tested were not efficient for cellulose production by A. xylinum GS11. The effects of various inorganic salts, amino acids and vitamins were also investigated: $MgSO_4$, phenylalanine and $\alpha$-tocopherol gave the cellulose yield of 1.5, 1.4 and 1.4 fold, respectively, compared with basal medium. In our experiment, cellulose production by A. xylinum GS11 added with 10% coconut milk and 0.5% lignosulfonate in basal medium, was the most efficient among the several material sources employed here, and these were 2.2 and 2.1 fold, respectively.

Two types of lignin materials with a different surface ionic character were used and polypyrrole layer was introduced on the lignin surface to obtain polypyrrole@lignin and polypyrrole@lignosulfonate composites using a simple chemical oxidation polymerization, reported in a previous article. Polypyrrole was effectively prepared regardless of the lignin type and the resulting composites were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and impedance analysis. SEM and CV results showed that the obtained composites retained stable electrochemical properties after introduction of polypyrrole on the lignin surface. Impedance analyses showed that the surface properties of composites were dependent on lignin characteristics. In addition, the composites were embedded in agarose, an gelifying agent, to obtain conductive gels. It was found that the conductive gels possessed an electrical conductivity and also retained stable electrochemical properties, which indicated that the conductive gels might be useful for some applications.
