Bacillus sp. DYL130 producing biosurfactant was isolated from soil samples in the Duck-yu mountain and identified as Bacillus sp. by analysis of 16S rDNA sequence. Purification of the biosurfactant was performed by using affinity chromatography and TLC. The biosurfactant of culture medium from Bacillus sp. DYL130 was eluted with 100% methanol using affinity chromatography. To remove methanol, a rotary evaporator was used and enrichment sample was dissolved in alkaline water(pH 10). The purified biosurfactant was identified by TLC. It was confirmed that the Rf value of the biosurfactant was 0.78. Antifungal activity against Botrytis cineria was showed the strongly activity as active antagonist. Maximum emulsification activity and stability were obtained from soybean oil. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of purified biosurfactant was 35mg/l and the purified biosurfactant inhibited biofilm forming by Bacillus sp..

An investigation was carried out to evaluate the effects of pebble size on the small-scale sewage treatment apparatus by natural purification method that consisted of aerobic and anaerobic plot. pH and EC in both plots varied minimally regardless of pebble size. DO in aerobic plot increased as the pebble size decreased. That in the anaerobic plot was slightly less in comparison with that of the aerobic plot but varied minimally, $2.4{\sim}5.1\;mg/L$ regardless of pebble size. Under all experimental conditions, removals of BOD, COD and turbidity in anaerobic plot were more than 98, 91 and 98, 98% respectively. Removals of T-N and T-P increased as pebble size decreased. Under all experimental conditions, removals of T-N and T-P in anaerobic plot were about $45{\sim}59$ and $480{\sim}96%$, respectively. Judging from the above results, it should be considered that the optimum pebble size and pebble permeability in both plot was $2{\sim}4$ and $0.1{\sim}4\;mm$, respectively.

To develop small-scale sewage treatment apparatus for detached house of agricultural village, a small-scale sewage treatment apparatus by natural purification method that consisted of aerobic and anaerobic bed was constructed. To reduce the area of a sewage treatment apparatus, four different fitter media were used and each filter medium was coarse sand, broken stone, steel slag, and mixed fitter media (coarse sand : broken stone : steel slag = 1:1:1). The efficiency of sewage treatment according to the depth of aerobic and anaerobic bed and the volume ratio of aerobic to anaerobic bed were investigated in small-scale sewage treatment apparatus. The removal rate of pollutants according to the depth of aerobic and anaerobic bed in small-scale sewage treatment apparatus was high in the order of 50 cm < 70 cm < 90 cm. The removal rate of pollutants according to the ratio of aerobic to anaerobic bed in small-scale sewage treatment apparatus was high in the order of 1:1 < 1:2 $\fallingdotseq$ 1:3. Under the optimum conditions, removal rate of BOD, COD, SS, T-N and T-P were $98{\sim}99,\;95{\sim}97,\;99,\;65{\sim}66\;and\;96{\sim}99%$ respectively, in small-scale sewage treatment apparatus.

The vitellin of the red flour beetled Tribolium castaneum Herbst was purified and characterized. The vitellin of T. castaneum was purified by the FPLC techniques, anion exchange chromatography and gel permeation chromatography. In native-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, vitellin of T. castaneum was detected as a single band. This native vitellin has molecular weight of 440 kDa. The vitellin of T. castaneum is composed of three polypeptides, designated Vnl (178 kDa), Vn2 (168 kDa) and Vn3 (52 kDa) in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Three subunits of vitellin were presented in the female adult hemolymph and egg extracts, but not observed in the male. These three polypeptides gradually decreased during embryogenesis. Polyclonal antiserum raised against purified vitellin reacted with the three polypeptides, Vnl, Vn2 and Vn3. Antisera raised against Vn1 and Vn2 cross-reacted with the two large subunits, Vnl and Vn2, respectively. Another subunits Vn3, however, was not cross-reacted with these two antisera. Also, antiserum raised against Vn3 did not cross-react with the Vn1 and Vn2.

In the purification of elaiophylin from a culture of Streptomyces hygroscopicus MCY -846, mono- and di-methyl-elaiophylin were obtained through a O-methylation of the hemiketal hydroxy group of elaiophylin. All the three elaiophylins showed cytotoxicity against several human tumor cell lines and murine cell lines. Elaiophylin and monomethyl-elaiophylin also showed antimicrobial activities against gram-positive bacteria and potent inhibitory effects on the activation of B cells by lipopolysaccharide as well as on the proliferation of mouse splenic lymphocytes stimulated by mitogens but dimethyl-elaiophylin did not. This result indicates that elaiophylin and monomethyl-elaiophylin would be strong immunosuppressants. Furthermore this result revealed an interesting structure-activity relationship suggesting that the lack of symmetry and/or the free OH group at C-11 of elaiophylin might be important in conferring biological activities.

In this study, we analyzed 80%MeOH extract of fruits of sorbaria sorbifolia var. stellipila MAX. to measure the total antioxidant capacity by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, individual flavonoid content by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). n-Hexane ($1.02{\pm}0.036$), $CH_2Cl_2$ ($0.95{\pm}0.025$), EtOAc ($1.94{\pm}0.065$), n-BuOH ($1.98{\pm}0.054$), D.W. ($1.2{\pm}0.032$) fractions were examined antioxidative activity by ORAC assay. It was revealed that EtOAc($1.94{\pm}0.065$), n-BuOH($1.98{\pm}0.054$) fractions had significant antioxidative activity. The isolation and separation were facilitated using open column chromatography, while separation, purification and identification were accomplished by using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).

This paper investigates the size dependent effect on the vibration analysis of a porous nanocomposite viscoelastic plate reinforced by functionally graded-single walled carbon nanotubes (FG-SWCNTs) by considering nonlocal strain gradient theory. Therefore, using energy method and Hamilton's principle, the equations of motion are derived. In this article, the effects of nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio, strain gradient parameter, volume fraction of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), damping coefficient, porosity coefficient, and temperature change on the natural frequency are perused. The innovation of this paper is to compare the effectiveness of each mentioned parameters individually on the free vibrations of this plate and to represent the appropriate value for each parameter to achieve an ideal nanocomposite plate that minimizes vibration. The results are verified with those referenced in the paper. The results illustrate that the effect of damping coefficient on the increase of natural frequency is significantly higher than the other parameters effect, and the effects of the strain gradient parameter and nonlocal parameter on the natural frequency increase are less than damping coefficient effect, respectively. Furthermore, the results indicate that the natural frequency decreases with a rise in the nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio and temperature change. Also, the natural frequency increases with a rise in the strain gradient parameter and CNTs volume fraction. This study can be used for optimizing the industrial and medical designs, such as automotive industry, aerospace engineering and water purification system, by considering ideal properties for the nanocomposite plate.

Two lignanes, Comp.-I, mp 108-1$0^{\circ}C$ and Comp.-II, mp 50-52$^{\circ}C$ were isolated from Korean ginseng extract by repeated column chromatographic purification. Comp-1 was identified as gomisin-N and Comp. -II as gomisin-A by spectrometric analysis, both of which have already been described as the anti-hepatotoxic lignin components of Schizandra chinensis Bail.
