Dissolution profiles of ketoconazole in solid dispersion system (SDS) were investigated in the second fluid (pH 6.8) for the dissolution test (KPV). PVP K-30 and methyl cellulose were used as carriers in SDS, and chloroform as a solvent. Computer optimization technique was applied to obtain an optimum formula of SDS, and the following results were obtained; 1) Dissolution rate of ketoconazole in SDS was larger than that of pure ketoconazole in the second fluid of pH 6.8. 2) PVP K-30 and methyl cellulosr were good carriers for SDS of ketoconazole. Moerover PVP K-30 was better than methyl cellulose. 3) The optimum formula of ketoconazole SDS obtained from computer optimization technique was chloroform 175 ml, PVP K-30 5g and methyl cellulose 0.2g per 1g of ketoconazole. 4) The experimental value of $A_{60}$ (Amount released from ketoconazole tablet during 60 minutes) obtained from SDS by optimum formula agreed well with the value calculated by polynomial regression equation.

Poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) has been employed as a microchip material for DNA separation in microfluidic condition. Different sieving molecules such as cellulose derivatives having glucose building block (methyl cellulose (MC), hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC)) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) having linear (ring-opened ethylene oxide) unit were used and their performance was compared in terms of separation efficiency and resolution. In general, PEO showed better separation performance than cellulose derivatives probably due to the nature of linear shape polymer conformation. It was possible to perform at least 15 consecutive running with 1.2% PEO at the electric field strength around 200 V/cm. Fast analysis of the standard $\Phi$X 174 RF DNA/Hae III (less than 130s) was obtained with the number of the theoretical plate around 250,000/m. Our PMDS microchip was applied to the measurement of CAG repeat number, which is related to male infertile disease.

The state of compatability of poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) and methyl cellulose(MC), prepared by an aqueous solution casting, were investigated over the entire compositions by dynamical mechanical analyzer(DMA) and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). The glass transition temperatures of the blends, estimated by DMA, indicate that the blends of PVA and MC showed a definite degree of partial miscibility by showing two glass transition temperatures below 80 wt % MC contents in the blends and one glass transition temperature above 80 wt % of MC contents. The DSC results show a depression of melting point and crystallization temperature of PVA in the blends containing more than 80 wt % MC. This indicates that a considerable compatibility in the blend above 80 wt % MC contents may be attribute to the presence of interaction of hydroxyl groups of component polymers through hydrogen bonding. The DMA study of the effect of plasticizer on the polymers showed that water was a good plasticizer for PVA and PEG400 for MC. The addition of water and PEG400 in the blends showed a synergic plasticizing effect on these blends, which resulted in the large extent of the improvement of the compatibility. The elongation of PVA, MC and blonds was found to increase with addition of PEG400 in the blends, but the tensile strength to decrease with addition of plasticizer.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the strengthening treatment of methyl cellulose (MC) on properties and aging characteristics of the dewaxed papers during humid heating aging. Beeswax-treated Hanji was dewaxed by the supercritical fluid extraction method, and subsequently the strengthening treatment was performed with MCs having three different viscosities. MC was first applied by dipping a dewaxed paper into a MC solution whose concentration was controlled from 0.5% to 1.5%. After the strengthened papers were artificially aged at $80^{\circ}C$ and 65% RH, the changes in optical and mechanical properties of the samples were evaluated. The results show that viscosity and especially pick-up of MC influenced the strengthening efficiency and aging characteristics of dewaxed paper. Strength was increased with the MC coating weight; in addition, strengthening with MC improved preservability of the dewaxed paper. The optimum conditions for the strengthening with MC was found to be the coating ratio of 4% with 1500 cP MC.

To research the characteristics of cellulose produced from one strains of Rhizopus(R-B 14) when it acts on the carboxyl methyl cellulose, this experiment was carried out in crude purified cellulose. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The optimum pH of cellulose was from 4. 5 to 5 .5 and the range of its stability to the pH was considerably extensive and it was from 4 to 7. 2. The optimum temperature of cellulose was $50^{\circ}C$ and the activity of it was instantly inactivated at $70^{\circ}C$. 3. The inhibition of the metal ions to the activity of cellulose was as follows; $Hg^{++}$ > $Ag^+$ +/ > $Fe^{+++}$ > $Pb^{++}$. But the activity of cellulose was not affected at all by $Na^+$, $K^+$ and $Mg^{++}$.

Cellulose was electrospun over water collector and the cellulose solution was prepared using N-methyl-morpholine N-oxide/water(nNMMO/$H_2O$). The morphology of electrospun cellulose was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM images showed that the fiber formation depended on processing parameters such as solution concentration, applied electric field strength, solution feeding rate and temperature of water in coagulation bath. High concentration, low temperature of water bath, and low feeding rate were more favorable to obtain fiber morphology. All the variables affected on the fluidity of the cellulose solution and diffusion of NMMO. Low fluidity and fast diffuision of NMMO was critical for obtaining fiber morphology.

We have developed a sodium fluoride containing gelatin and methyl cellulose gel. Cariostatic abilities of those gel were investigated and compared with APF gel and fluoride varnish($Cavityshield^{TM}$). We prepared the bovine tooth samples and divided into two surface, control side and experimental side in same specimen for exclusion of difference between specimens. The experiment was consisted of 4 groups : (I) APF gel : (II) $Cavityshield^{TM}$ : (III) Gelatin F gel : (IV) Methyl cellulose F gel Decalcification were produced by placing each specimen into artificial acidic solution(pH 4.0) for 72 hours. Surface microhardness were measured and depth of demineralization lesion were measured by polarizing light microscope. The results were as follows: 1. The difference of VHN between control and experimental side is smallest in group I (p<0.05). 2. The largest difference was shown in group II (p<0.05). 3. There were no significant difference between group III and IV in microhardness test (p>0.05). 4. The difference of lesion depth is smallest in group I (p<0.05). 5. There were no significant difference between group II, III and IV in lesion depth (p>0.05). The result of the present study indicate that the fluoride containing gelatin and methyl cellulose gel is more effective than APF gel and is similar to fluoride varnish application for prevention of demineralization.

For the purpose of improving the fluidity of enteric-coated powders, various mineral silicates were added during spray drying process. Aqueous slurries of cimetidine, mineral silicates containing CMEC (carboxy methyl ethyl cellulose) were spray dried using a centrifugal wheel atomizer. The finely agglomerated powders obtained by this process were flowing as opposed to the original powders. The effect of four mineral silicates (colloidal silica, talc, bentonite, and kaolin) on the micromeritic properties and dissolution profiles of spray dried agglomerates were examined.

Gluten 대체재료로써 gum질과 지방질 및 활성 gluten을 첨가하여 쌀빵의 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 실험에 사용한 모든 종류의 gum질 첨가에 의해서 쌀빵의 제조는 가능하였으며, 특히 3% hydroxypropyl-methyl-cellulose를 첨가하여 제조하는 경우 제빵의 성형성이 좋았다. 쌀빵 제조시 첨가하는 지방질로는 상온에서 액체상인 식용유를 사용하는 편이 고체상의 지방인 마아가린이나 라아드보다 쌀빵의 비용적을 증가시키며, 부드러운 조직감을 부여하고 있었다. 쌀빵 제조시의 가열방 법은 습식가열보다는 건식가열이 바람직한 결과를 얻었다. 3% hydroxypropyl-methyl-cellulose를 첨가하여 품종별 쌀로서 빵을 제조한 경우, 한강찰벼를 제외한 모든 품종에서 쌀빵 제조가 가능하였으며, 특히 수원조, AC 27, IR 44 등의 쌀로서 제조한 쌀빵의 성형성은 아주 좋았다. Gluten과 강력분을 첨가하여 제조하는 경우에도 한강찰벼를 제외한 모든 품종에서 쌀빵 제조가 가능하였으며, 수원 230이나 pusa-33-30등의 쌀로서 제조한 것이 다른 품종의 쌀보다 제빵성이 좋았다.

In this study, the microbial safety and mechanical properties of xeno-bone graft material irradiated were investigated during the storage. Xeno-bone graft of the deminerlized bone matrix in carboxy-methyl-cellulose was gamma-irradiated and was cultured in PCA and PDA agar to check microbial contamination. Total aerobic bacteria and fungi were not detected in the irradiated and non-irradiated sample stored in accelerator at $30^{\circ}C$ for 10 months. Viscosity of CMC treated gamma irradiation was also not changed by holding period.
