In this study, changes of soil properties including soil texture, specific surface area, organic matter content, pH, cation exchange capacity and exchangeable cations content were investigated in response to strong acid or base accident. The properties changed significantly when the soil reacted with 10 M HCl or 1 M NaOH (i.e., when one gram of soil received 50 and 5 mmol of HCl or NaOH), respectively. When the soil reacted with 10 M HCl or 1 M NaOH solution, soil texture changed from sandy loam to loamy sand and specific surface areas decreased from $5.84m^2/g$ to 4.85 and $1.92m^2/g$, respectively. The soil organic matter content was reduced from 3.23% to 0.96 and 0.44%, and the soil pH changed from 5.05 to 2.35 and 10.65, respectively. The cation exchange capacity decreased from 10.27 cmol/kg to 4.52 and 5.60 cmol/kg, respectively. Especially, high concentrations of $Al^{3+}$ or $Na^+$ were observed in acidic or basic spills, respectively, which is likely to cause toxicity to terrestrial organisms. The results suggest that restoration of soil properties, as well as soil remediation, needs to be carried out to maintain the soil function in chemical spill sites.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes of chlorophyll contents and chlorophyll fluorescence in barley(Hordeum vulgare L.) 7 day old seedling treated with 0.2M, 0.4M, 0.6M, 0.8M, and 1.0M NaCI concentration containing Hepes buffer(pH 7.5). Barley was affected by NaCI treatment. The chlorophyll a, b and carotenoid of barley decreased with an increase in NaCI concentration. However, chlorophyll a, b and carotenoid of barley were not greatly influenced by o.8M and 1.0M NaCl. Fv, Fv/Fm and qP were gradually decreased by higher concentration of NaCI. qP, qNP, qR and qE were gradually decreased by 6hr. During barley chloroplast was development NaCI affected chlorophyll synthesis than photosynthetic activity. Whereas barley seedling leaves were more influenced photosynthetic activity than chlorophyll contents by NaCI.

실리콘웨이퍼 제조공정에서 폐기되는 HF에는 순수한 실라카만 함유되어 있지만 브라운관 업체에서 폐기되는 HF 폐액에는 유리의 조성에 따라서 다양한 성분들이 소량씩 함유되어 있다. 몰비로 Si:F=1:6이 되도록 조정한 후에 20% NaOH를 사용하여 pH를 6으로 조정하여 규불화소다를 얻고, 이어서 pH를 9로 조정하여 NaF를 었었다. 규불화소다에 NaCl, 칠레초석을 다양하게 첨가하여 금속 융제로 사용한 결과에 의하면 규불화소다의 양이 증가할수록 융제의 특성은 우수하였고, 가장 이상적인 첨가량은 50%~60%이었다. 따라서 각 공정에서 폐기되는 HF는 $Na_2SiF_{6}$와 NaF를 제조함으로서 재활용이 가능하였다.

The object of this study was to investigate the characteristics of pectinesterase(PE), polygalacturonase(PG) and Peroxidase(POD) in Kimchi materials. The results were as follows : 1. The specific activities of PEs in Korean cabbage, Korean raddish, garlic and ginger were 200 unit/mg protein, 23.1 unit/mg protein, 0.8 unit/mg protein and 32 unit/mg protein, respectively. The optimum pHs of PEs in all materials were between 7 to 8. The concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ which showed the highest activities of PEs were $0.2{\sim}0.3M$ NaCl, 50 mM $CaCl_2$ in Korean cabbage and raddish, 0.05 M NaCl, 20 mM $CaCl_2$ in garlic and 0.2 M NaCl, 20 mM $CaCl_2$ in ginger. 2. The specific activities and the optimum pHs of PGs were 1.5 unit/mg protein and pH 4.5 in Korean cabbage, 1.6 unit/mg protein and $pH\;4.5{\sim}5.5M$ in Korean raddish, 0.06 unit/mg protein and $pH\;3.0{\sim}3.5M$ in garlic, and 0.06 unit/mg protein and $CaCl_2$ in ginger. The concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ which showed the highest activities of PGs were $0.1{\sim}0.2M$ NaCl and $0.15{\sim}0.2mM$ mM $CaCl_2$ in all materials. 3. The specific activities and the optimum pHs of PODs in Korean cabbage, Korean raddish, garlic and ginger were 71.3 unit/mg protein ; pH 6.0. 769 unit/mg protein ; pH 5.5, 1.09 unit/mg protein ; pH 4.5 and 12.7 unit/mg protein ; $pH\;5.0{\sim}5.5M$, respectively. POD activities were not decreased in Korean cabbage, but decreased in Korean raddish by the increase of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ concentrations. In garlic and ginger, POD activities were a little slightly affected by the increase of NaCl, $CaCl_2$ concentrations.

The adsorption characteristics of four pesticides (phosphamidon, fenitrothion, triadimefon, and diniconazole) on natural clinoptilolite (CLI_N) and three synthetic zeolites were investigated. The synthetic zeolites included faujasite (FAU_F) synthesized from coal fly ash; the mixture of FAU and Na-P1 (FAU + Na-P1)_SF synthesized using Jeju scoria and coal fly ash at the ratio of 1.5 by weight; and waste fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (FCC_W). The distribution coefficient, K_D and the Freundlich constant, K_F decreased in the following sequence: FCC_W > FAU_F > (FAU + Na-P1)_SF > CLI_N among the zeolites and diniconazole>fenitrothion> triadimefon> phosphamidon among the pesticides. The pesticide adsorptivity increased with increasing temperature for FAU_F, (FAU+Na-P1)_SF and FCC_W, however, it decreased for CLI_N, regardless of the type of pesticide. The adsorptivity of pesticides was independent of pH for phosphamidon, fenitrothion and triadimefon, whereas it decreased with increasing pH for diniconazole, regardless of zeolite type.

It was hypothesized that NaF induces calcium sensitization in $Ca^{2+}$-controlled solution in permeabilized rat mesenteric arteries. Rat mesenteric arteries were permeabilized with $\beta$-escin and subjected to tension measurement. NaF potentiated the concentration-response curves to $Ca^{2+}$ (decreased $EC_{50}$ and increased $E_{max}$). Cumulative addition of NaF (4.0, 8.0 and 16 mM) also increased vascular tension in $Ca^{2+}$-controlled solution at pCa 7.0 or pCa 6.5, but not at pCa 8.0. NaF-induced vasocontraction and $GTP{\gamma}S$-induced vasocontraction were not additive. NaF-induced vasocontraction at pCa 7.0 was inhibited by pretreatment with Rho kinase inhibitors H1152 or Y27632 but not with a MLCK inhibitor ML-7 or a PKC inhibitor Ro31-8220. NaF induces calcium sensitization in a $Ca^{2+}$ dependent manner in $\beta$-escin-permeabilized rat mesenteric arteries. These results suggest that NaF is an activator of the Rho kinase signaling pathway during vascular contraction.

The removal of colours from aqueous solution and/or dispersions has been studied by dispersed-air flotation, in a semi-batch column. Two colours were used for the experiments: Basic Yellow 28 (basic) and Direct Orange 31 (basic). All two were effectively removed by flotation within 8 min. Sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium oleate and amines were found to be effective as collectors in the removal of colour, which was found to be related to the pH of the solution and the amount of collector added to it, with high collector dosages causing the process to become pH-independent.

The mammalian cortical collecting duct (CCD) plays a major role in regulating renal NaCl reabsorption, which is important in $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ homeostasis. The M-1 cell line, derived from the mouse cortical collecting duct, has been used as a mammalian model of the study on the electrolytes transport in CCD. M-1 cells were grown on collagen-coated permeable support and short circuit current $(I_{sc})$ was measured. M-1 cells developed amiloride-sensitive current $5{\sim}7$ days after seeding. Apical and basolateral addition of ATP induced increase in $I_{sc}$ in M-1 cells, which was partly retained in $Na^+-free$ or $Cl^--free$ solution, indicating that ATP increased $Na^+$ absorption and $Cl^-$ secretion in M-1 cells. $Cl^-$ secretion was mediated by the activation of apical cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) chloride channels and $Ca^{2+}-activated$ chloride channels, but $Na^+$ absorption was not mediated by activation of epithelal sodium channel (ENaC). ATP increased cAMP content in M-1 cells. The RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that M-1 cells express $P2Y_2,\;P2X_3\;and\;P2Y_4$ receptors. These results showed that ATP regulates $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ transports via multiple P2 purinoceptors on the apical and basolateral membranes in M-1 cells.

This study was undertaken to find out the effect of heating time and temperature, pH and NaCl concentration on heat sensitivity of egg albumen during heat treatment. Sharp increase of the turbidity and rapid decrease of the foaming power were observed when egg albumen was heated at above $60^{\circ}C$. Egg albumen became opaque when it was heated at $60^{\circ}C$ for above 13 minutes or at $65^{\circ}C$ for above 5 minutes. The turbidity was markedly increased at below pH 7 and the foaming power was largely decreased at around pH 4.0 by the heat treatment ($60^{\circ}C$, 5 min). The foam stability was slightly decreased at alkaline pH range by the heat treatment (60t, 5 min). The addition of NaCl up to 0.3M decreased the turbidity. There was no effect of NaCl addition on the foaming power, but the foam stability was decreased by the addition of NaCl at above 0.2M before and after the heat treatment ($60^{\circ}C$, 5 min).
