Antigenicities of ovomucoid (OM) and ovalbumin (OA) in chicken egg white (EW) before and after NaOH, heat, and pretense treatments were examined by competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ciELISA), using rabbit anti-OM and-OA antibodies, Enzymatic hydrolysis of EW did not effectively reduce antigenicity of OM, whereas that of OA was decreased to 1/5,000-1/100,000 by treatment of plant-derived or microbial pretenses. Heat treatment below $100^{\circ}C$ for 30min did not decrease antigenicity of OM, whereas that of OA in heated EW increased maximally to 100 times, Antigenicity of OM in EW effectively decreased by NaOH treatment, disappearing at over 1% NaOH, whereas that of OA increased. Additional heat treatment of NaOH-treated EW at $70^{\circ}C$ for 15min slightly reduced antigenicities of OM and OA.

This study is to compare characteristics of saccharification reactions applying to enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated fallen leaves for bio-ethanol production. It experimented pretreatment of acid, alkaline in the chemical. This experiment includes preteatment of acid and alkaline in chemical, soaking, shaking and autoclaving method, which were applied to biomass. In result, the glucose production from alkaline-NaOH method was 263 mg glucose/ g biomass comparing with them of acid-HCl method. Thus, alkaline-NaOH method is superior than the acid-HCl method for chemical preteatment of fallen leaves. Also, when various chemical treatments were compared, they were all. Based on the results of this study, we found that leaves, one of biomass, are possible in pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis process, and they are likely to affect bio-ethanol production in the future.

Kinetics and mechanism for alkaline hydrolysis of C. I. Disperse Blue 79(B-79) which is 4-N, N-diacetoxyethyl-2-acylamino-5-ethoxy -2′-bromo-4′,6′-dinitroazobenzene were investigated. The color strength of B-79 in acetone/water solutions of various NaOH concentrations decreased continuously. The hydrolysis rate of B-79 increased with increasing alkali concentration and appeared following first order reaction. The observed rate constants for various concentrations of B-79 showed similar values, and B-79 was hydrolyzed by first order reaction for dye concentration. Therefore, it was confirmed that the overall reaction follow second order kinetics and proceed via S/sub n/2 reaction. From the study on kinetics and spectrometric analysis, it was proposed that the rate determining step of the hydrolysis reaction of B-79 is the nucleophilic substitution reaction - that is the reaction of the rapid attack of $OH^{-}$ on the carbon atom, which is in acceptor ring, adjacent to azo group to break the C-N bond. And it was also found that the final hydrolysis products of B-79 include both the acceptor ring in the form of sodium salt and the donor ring possessing 4-N,N-dihydroxyethyl group converted from 4-N,N-diacetoxyethyl group.

The hydrolysis rate of B-79 increased with increasing alkali concentration and appeared following first order reaction. The observed rate constants for various concentrations of B-79 showed similar values, and B-79 was hydrolyzed by first order reaction for dye concentration. Therefore, it was confirmed that the overall reaction follow second order kinetics and proceed via $S_N2$ reaction. From the study on kinetics and spectrometric analysis, it was proposed that the rate determining step of the hydrolysis reaction of B-79 is the nucleophilic substitution reaction - that is the reaction of the rapid attack of OH- on the carbon atom, which is in acceptor ring, adjacent to auto group to break the C-N bond.

Inorganic salts have negative or positive effects on the rates of many chemical reactions and also the rates of acidic and alkaline hydrolysis of carboxylic esters. The direction of salt effects on the hydrolysis of ester depends on the charge of esters. It is expected that the rate of the alkaline hydrolysis of Poly(ethylene terephthalte)(PET), polymeric solid carboxytic polyester with carboxyl end group at the polymer end, is also influenced by inorganic salts. In the present work, to clarify the effect of divalent cations on the alkaline hydrolysis of PET, many salts with divalent cations like $MgCl_{2},CaCl_{2},SrCl_{2},BaCl_{2},$ were added to the aqueous alkaline solutions. Then PET was hydrolyzed with aqueous NaOH solution having many salts under various conditions. Some conclusions obtained from the experimental results were summarized as follows. Many salts with various divalent cations increased or decreased the reaction rate of alkaline hydrolysis of PET depending on their electrophilicity, hydration property, ability of ion pair formation, solubility, and the degree of interactions between divalent cations and anions, etc. The hydrolysis was interrupted in the order of $Ca^{+2} and was generally accelerated in the order of $Ba^{+2}. It was inferred from the increase in ΔS$^*$and the decrease in the ΔG$^*$that the divalent cations $Sr^{+2}$ and $Ba^{+2}$attracted by PET increased the collision frequency between carbonyl carbon and $OH^{-}$ion and then accelerated the reaction rate. $Mg^{+2}$and $Ca^{+2}$decreased the reaction rate because of their strong interaction with $OH^{-}$.

Antheraea pernyi silk powder was prepared by treatment with HCl and NaOH. The degree of hydrolysis of Antheraea pernyi silk fiber was examined. The morphology and structural characteristics of Antheraea pernyi silk powder were investigated by using SEM, FTIR and X-ray diffractometer. As the concentration of HCl and NaOH and tratment temperature increased, in general, the degree of hydrolysis of Antheraea pernyi silk fiber increased. On the other hand, the degree of hydrolysis of Antheraea pernyi treated with 3 N NaOH at 120$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr was 70 wt%, which was lower than that of 90$^{\circ}C$(83 wt%). The morphology of acid/alkali resistance fraction of Antheraea pernyi silk fibroin was transformed from fiber form to powered one with an increase of hydrolysis. The conformation of Antheraea pernyi silk powder characterized by FT-IR spectrometer and X-ray diffractometer ${\beta}$-sheet and ${\alpha}$-helix structure.

A major problem in the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic substrates is the very strong bonding of cellulase to lignin and even cellulose in the hydrolysis residues. This phenomenon inhibits recycle of the cellulase which is a major expense of the enzymatic hydrolysis process. In this paper, autohydrolyzed wood was delignified by two-stage with a 0.3% Na OH extraction and oxygen-alkali bleaching and was subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis with cellulase. Also, an improved almost quantitative recycle process of cellulase enzyme was discussed. In enzyme recovery by affinity method. the first recycling showed relatively high hydrolysis rate of 97.4%. Even at the third recycle. hydrolysis rate was 86.7 percents. In the case of cellulase recovery by ultrafiltration method, first 2 recycling treatments resulted very high hydrolysis rate(97.0-97.7%). Even the third recycling showed about 94.2%. Authoydrolysis of oak wood followed by 2-stage delignification with alkali and oxygen-alkali produced a substrate for enzymatic hydrolysis that allowed almost quantitative recycle of cellulase.

Interaction of a representative antibiotic, doxycycline(Doxy), with commercial poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) and cationic-dyeable poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) fiber was studied in development of infection resistant biomedical materials. Regular PET was also employed for a comparison purpose. Their interactions were investigated at different treatment temperatures, times, and pHs. Fibers were also hydrolyzed by 1% NaOH for 1 or 2 hours at $85^{\circ}C\;and\;100{\circ}C$ to study effect of hydrolysis on antibiotic sorption. Infection-resistant characteristics of the substrates were evaluated by zone of inhibition (ZOI) test. Results revealed that a significant chemical change occurred in PAN and cationic-dyeable PET due to hydrolysis. Additional functional groups obtained by hydrolysis not only enhanced sorption of the antibiotics but also provided greater ZOI values, indicating substantial improvement in sustained infection resistance properties.

This work was conducted to evaluate the effect of dilute sodium hydroxide (NaOH) on barley straw at boiling temperature and fractionation of its biomass components into lignin, hemicellulose, and reducing sugars. To this end, various concentrations of NaOH (0.5% to 2%) were applied for pretreatment of barley straw at $105^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy studies revealed that 2% NaOH-pretreated barley straw exposed cellulose fibers on which surface granules were abolished due to comprehensive removal of lignin and hemicellulose. The X-ray diffractometer (XRD) result showed that the crystalline index was increased with increased concentration of NaOH and found a maximum 71.5% for 2% NaOH-pretreated sample. The maximum removal of lignin and hemicellulose was 84.8% and 79.5% from 2% NaOH-pretreated liquor, respectively. Reducing sugar yield was 86.5% from 2% NaOH-pretreated sample using an enzyme dose containing 20 FPU of cellulase, 40 IU of ${\beta}$-glucosidase, and 4 FXU of xylanase/g substrate. The results of this study suggest that it is possible to produce the bioethanol precursor from barley straw using 2% NaOH at boiling temperature.
