The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the counterion binding constant (${\beta}$) at the CMC of the mixtures of Dodecylpyridinium chloride (DPC) and Tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) have been determined from the concentration dependence of electrical conductance at various temperatures from $4^{\circ}C$ to $36^{\circ}C$. Thermodynamic parameters (${\Delta}C_p$, ${\Delta}G^o_m$, ${\Delta}H^o_m$ and ${\Delta}S^o_m$), associated with the micelle formation of DPC/TTAB mixtures, have been estimated from the temperature dependence of CMC and ${\beta}$values. The measured values of ${\Delta}C_p$ and ${\Delta}G^o_m$ are negative but the values of ${\Delta}S^o_m$ are positive in the whole measured temperature region. The values of ${\Delta}H^o_m$ are positive at low temperature region and negative at high temperature region. The results show that all of the thermodynamic parameters are dependent on temperature and mole fraction of DPC(${\alpha}_DPC$).

Peroxidase was purified to a homogeneous state from Castanea Semen by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, gel filtration on sephadex G-100 and HPLC, and the purification fold was 65.3. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 35,000 by HPLC. In properties of the enzyme which was purified up to sephadex G-100 column chromatography, the optimum pH and temperature were 5.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. By heating the enzyme at $80^{\circ}C$ for 1.73 min., the enzyme activity was decreased to 10%. The enzyme was active toward aromatic amines such as o-phenylenediamine and p-phenylendiamine. Kinetic studies indicated a Km of 2.6mM for o-phenylenediamine at an optimal hydrogen-peroxide concentration and a Km of 10mM for hydrogenperoxide at an optimal o-phenylenediamine concentration. Among the reagents tested, L-ascorbic acid and sodium L-ascorbate inhibited significantly the enzyme, while $Ca^{++}$ and $Ba^{++}$ activated the enzyme at the concentration of 1mM and 5mM.

A novel $TiO_2$-Coconut Shell Powder Composite (TCSPS), prepared by the controlled sol-gel method with subsequent heat treatment, was evaluated as an innovative photocatalytic absorbent for the removal of methylene blue. Optimal preparation conditions of TCSPC were obtained by a response surface methodology and a central composite design model. As compared with the results obtained from one-factor-at-a-time experiments, the values were approximated to the nearest condition of these values and the following experimental parameters were set as the optimum : $600^{\circ}C$ calcination temperature and 20 g of coconut shell powder loading amount.

Let G be a group and $\mathbb{C}$ the field of complex numbers. Suppose ${\sigma}:G{\rightarrow}G$ is an endomorphism satisfying ${{\sigma}}({{\sigma}}(x))=x$ for all x in G. In this paper, we first determine the central solution, f : G or $G{\times}G{\rightarrow}\mathbb{C}$, of the functional equation $f(xy)+f({\sigma}(y)x)=2f(x)+2f(y)$ for all $x,y{\in}G$, which is a variant of the quadratic functional equation. Using the central solution of this functional equation, we determine the general solution of the functional equation f(pr, qs) + f(sp, rq) = 2f(p, q) + 2f(r, s) for all $p,q,r,s{\in}G$, which is a variant of the equation f(pr, qs) + f(ps, qr) = 2f(p, q) + 2f(r, s) studied by Chung, Kannappan, Ng and Sahoo in [3] (see also [16]). Finally, we determine the solutions of this equation on the free groups generated by one element, the cyclic groups of order m, the symmetric groups of order m, and the dihedral groups of order 2m for $m{\geq}2$.

Salting-out technique was adopted to crystallize dye crystals from dye solution. In this research solubility of dye solution and crystallization kinetics of Reactive dye (RB-8, RB-49, RR-218) was investigated. The empirical expressions of salting-out crystallization kinetics for Reactive dye (RB-8, RB-49, RR-218) in continuous MSMPR crystallizer was RB-8 in crystal growth kinetics $G=7.1{\times}10^{-4}{\Delta}C^{0.67}$ and nucleation kinetics $B^0=3.1{\times}10^{15}{\Delta}C[1.2{\times}10^{-8}+{\Delta}C^{0.7}M_T{^2}]$, RB-49 in crystal growth kinetics $G=5.2{\times}10^{-4}{\Delta}C^{0.3441}$ and nucleation kinetics $B^0=7.2{\times}10^{15}{\Delta}C[3.3{\times}10^{-8}+({\Delta}C)^{0.7}M_T{^2}]$, RR-218 in crystal growth kinetics $G=4.4{\times}10^{-4}{\Delta}C^{0.2361}$ and nucleation kinetics $B^0=6.3{\times}10^{15}{\Delta}C[7.9{\times}10^{-8}+({\Delta}C)^{0.7}M_T{^2}]$. Also, comparison of calculated crystal size distribution applying to characteristic curve method with experimental crystal size showed good agreement.

Three bark extracts of Albizia julibrissin were prepared using water (AW), 70% (v/v) ethanol (AE), and hot water (AHW). Organic solvent fractions were analyzed for total flavonoids and polyphenols, antioxidant activities, and inhibitory activities against xanthine oxidase. Total flavonoid and polyphenol contents of the AHW extract were 8.57 mg/g and 108.67 mg/g, respectively. The SOD-like activities of all extracts, assayed at 1.0 mg/mL, were 10.46-16.73%. The nitrite-scavenging ability of the AHW extract, assayed at pH 1.2, was 60.82%, and the $IC_{50}$ value was $770.18\;{\mu}g$/mL. The electron-donating ability of the AHW extract, at 0.3 mg/mL, was 92.30%; the $IC_{50}$ values of the AW and AHW extracts were $31.31\;{\mu}g$/mL and $36.22\;{\mu}g$/mL, respectively; thus higher than that of ascorbic acid ($39.06\;{\mu}g$/mL). Xanthine oxidase inhibition by the AHW extract, at 1.0 mg/mL, was 94.05%. These results indicate that the AHW of A. julibrissin has potential as a natural antioxidant, for addition to foods and nutraceuticals.

The critical micelle concentration(CMC) and the counterion binding $constant(\beta)$ at the CMC of the mixtures of Sodium dodecylsulfate(SDS) with Sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate(DBS) in aqueous solutions have been determined from the concentration dependence of electrical conductance at several temperatures from $15^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C.$ Thermodynamic parameters(${\Delta}C_p,\;{\Delta}G_m^{\circ},\;{\Delta}H_m^{\circ}$ 및 ${\Delta}S_m^{\circ}$ and ${\Delta}C_p$), associated with the micelle formation of SDS/DBS mixtures, have been estimated from the temperature dependence of CMC and $\beta$ values. The measured values of ${\Delta}G_m^{\circ}\;and\;{\Delta}C_p$ are negative but the values of ${\Delta}S_m/^{\circ}$ are positive in the whole measured temperature region. The significance of these thermodynamic parameters and their relation to the theory of the micelle formation of SDS/DBS mixtures have been also considered.

Anthocyanin pigments in soybean seed coat were D3G (Delphinidin-3-glucoside), C3G (Cyanidin-3- glucoside) and Pt3G (Petunidin-3-glucoside), which have been known potential roles in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. Anthocyanin contents in seed coat of blck soybean were significantly different according to soybean variety, C3G content showed the highest value in all materials and its variation was also wide. Antioxidant activity of each pigment was analyzed by DPPH and TEAC methods in which D3G and C3G showed high activity. And this study was carried out to investigate the effects of anthocyanin to human cancer cells. Cytotoxity were analyzed by MTT assay after anthocyanin pigments treated on leukemia (Jurkat T) and adenocarsinoma (MCF-7) cells. It showed decrement of cell numbers as anthocyanin concentration is increasing. ${EC}_50$ range of anthocyanin concentrations were $100{\sim}250\;ug/mL$ and $100{\sim}250\;ug/mL$ in Jurkat T and MCF-7 cell, respectively. D3G showed higher cytotoxicity than other pigments in Jurkat T cell whereas activity of C3G was high in MCF-7 cell. It is believed that supplementation of human diets with soybean anthocyanin markedly reduces human cancer mortality rates.

The effects of alumine borosilicate glass composition on the densification and the microwave properties of (M $g_{0.93}$C $a_{0.07}$)Ti $O_3$ ceramics were studied. As the amount of glass increase, the density of ceramics increases and grain growth enhances. When 20 ~30 wt% of glass added, it was densified to over 95% of (M $g_{0.93}$C $a_{0.07}$)Ti $O_3$ theoretical density. (M $g_{0.93}$C $a_{0.07}$)Ti $O_3$ ceramic sintered at 95$0^{\circ}C$ exhibits dielectric constants of 15~16, quality factor of 8000 and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of -45 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ by adding 20 wt% alumine borosilicate glass.
