본 연구는 폐수 중 함유된 고농도의 LAS를 제거하기 위해 $FeSO_4$를 이용한 응집, 펜톤산화, 펜톤 공정 전.후에 응집공정을 조합시킨 Coagu-oxidation 및 Renton's Coagulation을 이용하여, 처리 시 최적 조건을 도출하고, 효율적인 화학적 처리방법을 검토하기 위해 수행되었다. 연구로부터 얻어진 결론은 다음과 같다. 응집공정은 pH 8, 응집제의 주입량 200mg/L인 조건에서, 펜톤산화는 pH 3, $H_2$$O_2$에 대한 ${Fe^2}^{+}$의 비가 1:1인 조건에서 최적효율을 보였다. Fenton's Coagulation 처리 시 LAS의 개환율은 높아졌고, 주입된 LAS농도의 73~96%가 제거되어 4가지 처리 방법 중 가 장 좋은 처리효율을 보였다. 따라서, LAS의 생물학적 처리 시 거품 및 부산물 생성 등에 의해 저해작용을 감안한다면, LAS가 다량으로 함유한 산업 폐수에서 화학적 처리방법의 도 입이 적절할 것으로 생각되며, 이들 중 Fenton's Coagulation을 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The present study was conducted to evaluate dietary requirements for essential fatty acids (EFAs) such as linoleic acid (LA, l8:2n-6), -lenolenic acid (LNA, 18:3n-3), or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3) and arachidonic acid (ARA, 20:4n-6) in juvenile eel Anguilla japonica cultured in a recirculating system for 16 weeks. The experimental diets contained 50% crude protein, 10% crude lipid and 3800 kcal/kg energy.Brown fish meal and blood meal were used as the main protein sources, while coconut oil, com oil and linseed oil were used as the lipid source to yield target fatty acids ratios. At the end of the trial, the effects of essential fatty acids supplementation on weight gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR), feeding efficiency (FE), proximate composition andwhole body fatty acids contents were examined. WG, SGR, and FEof eels fed diet D2, D3, was significantly higher (P<0.05) than those of fish fed the other diets. Whole body HUFA concentration of eels fed D 1 was significantly lower (P<0.05) than those fed the other diets. HUFA/SFA (saturated fatty acids) ratio of whole body in eels fed diets D2, D3 and D6 were significantly higher than that of eels fed diet D1 (P<0.05).DHA/EPA ratio of whole body in eels fed diet D7was significantly higher than those fed the other diets; and eels fed diet D5 showed the lowest DHA/EPA ratio among all the dietary treatments (P<0.05).Based on the experimental results, we concluded that LNA (n-3) and LA (n-6) were necessary for optimum growth of juvenile eel, and the dietary requirement of LNA and LA were 0.35∼0.5% and 0.5∼0.65%, respectively.

Two carbonaceous adsorbents CAT and CARBOPAL were tested for reducing the concentration of the three herbicides in water: 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), TCP (2,4,6-trichlorophenol) and metolachlor. Textural and chemical characterization of the adsorbents include nitrogen isotherms, FTIR, titration and thermogravimetric analyses. Adsorption was studied in discontinuous adsorption experiments at different pH values. The experimental adsorption isotherms data were fitted to four theoretical models. Adsorbent characterization reveals that CAT has higher micropore area, lower pore diameter and lower acidity than CARBOPAL. The adsorption is a second-order process and the isotherms best fitted to Sips model. The efficiency of the process depends mainly on the charge of the adsorbate for TCP and 2,4-D, but it depends on the charge of the surface for metolachlor. Adsorption capacity is higher on CAT for 2,4-D and TCP (small molecules), and it is higher on CARBOPAL for metolachlor (large molecules). Theoretical calculations clearly support this assumption.

The structures and energies of the anhydrate and hydrate (hydrate rate: h of 1) states of L-alanine (LA) and glycine (G) were calculated by quantum chemical calculations (QCCs) using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) for four types of conformers (${\beta}$-extended: ${\Phi}/{\Psi}=t-/t+$, $PP_{II}$: g-/t+, $PP_{II}$-like: g-/g+, and ${\alpha}$-helix: g-/g-). In LA and G, which have an imino proton (NH), three conformation types of ${\beta}$-extended, $PP_{II}$-like, and ${\alpha}$-helix were obtained, and water molecules were inserted mainly between the intra-molecular hydrogen bond of $CO{\cdots}HN$ in $PP_{II}$-like and ${\alpha}$-helix, and attached to the CO group in ${\beta}$-extended. In LA and G, $PP_{II}$-like conformers were most stable in the anhydrate and hydrate states, and the result for LA was different from some experimental and theoretical results from other studies reporting that the main stable conformation of alanine oligopeptide was $PP_{II}$. The formation pattern and stability of the conformation of the oligopeptide was strongly dominated by the presence/absence of intra-molecular hydrogen bonding of $CO{\cdots}HN$, or the presence/absence of an $NH_2$ group in the starting amino acid.

Aspergillus kawachii extracellular pectinases were screened in liquid cultures with different carbon sources. The fungus grown on citrus pectin or lemon pomace produced at least one of these inducible pectinases: acidic polygalacturonase, pectin lyase, pectin methylesterase, $\alpha$-L-arabinofuranosidase, $\alpha$-1,5-endoarabinase, $\beta$-D-galactosidase/exogalactanase, and $\beta$-1,4-endogalactanase. The lemon-pomace filtrates also contained significant $\alpha$-L-rhamnosidase and $\beta$-D-fucosidase activities. Most of the screened pectinases were active at pH 2.0-2.5, indicating that the A. kawachii enzymes were acidophilic. Under the culture conditions employed we could not detect enzymatic degradation of soybean rhamnogalacturonan. The A. kawachii pectinase-production-related regulatory phenomena of induction-repression resemble those described for other Aspergillus sp.

Rectal Temperature;Thermoregulation;Sows;Breed;The effects of season (hot vs. warm) in a tropical humid climate, parity (primiparous vs. multiparous) and breed (Creole: CR, Large White: LW) on rectal temperature (RT) were studied for a total of 222 lactations obtained in 85 sows (43 CR and 42 LW; 56 primiparous and 166 multiparous) over a 28-d lactation, between June 2002 and April 2005. Mean daily ambient temperature was higher during the hot season than during the warm season (26.0 vs. $24.1^{\circ}C$) and relative humidity was high and similar in both seasons (89% on average). At farrowing, BW was lower (172 vs. 233 kg) and backfat thickness was higher (37 vs. 21 mm) in CR than in LW sows (p<0.01). During the hot season, the reduction of average daily feed intake (ADFI) was more pronounced in LW than in CR sows (-920 vs. -480 g/d, p<0.05). Rectal temperature was higher at 1200 than at 0700hr, which coincides with the maximum and the minimum values of daily ambient temperature. The daily RT increased ($+0.9^{\circ}C$; p<0.01) between d -3 and d 7 (d 0: farrowing day), remained constant between d 7 and d 25 and decreased (p<0.01) thereafter (i.e. $-0.6^{\circ}C$ between d 25 and d 32). The average daily RT was significantly higher during the hot than during the warm season (38.9 vs. $38.6^{\circ}C$; p<0.01). It was not affected by breed, but the difference in RT between the hot and warm seasons was more pronounced in LW than in CR sows (+0.4 vs. $+0.2^{\circ}C$; p<0.05). Parity influenced the RT response; it was greater in primiparous than in multiparous sows (38.9 vs. $38.7^{\circ}C$; p<0.01). This study suggests that thermoregulatory responses to heat stress can differ between breeds and between parities.

BACKGROUND: Bioavailability enhancement by solubilization of lipophilic drugs in nano-emulsion has been reported and it may be useful in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products. This study was performed to compare in vivo bioavailability of nano-emulsion formulation with that of the general product as control. METHODS AND RESULTS: The pharmacokinetics assessment of Vitamin A, D and E complex of nanoemulsion formulation (LaVita), in comparison to the general product, was performed in the male rat plasma by a single oral dose at 20 mL/kg body weight (n=3/group). For nano-emulsion formulation (LaVita), $C_{max}$ of vitamin A and E in plasma were much higher and the area under the curve (AUC) of vitamin A, D and E were 14-63% higher, and the half-life of vitamin E was 2-fold longer than the general product. According to statistical analysis, each $C_{max}$ of vitamin A, D & E was significantly higher (p<0.01, 0.05 and 0.01, respectively) than that of general product. Half-life of vitamin A was significantly higher (p<0.01) and AUC of vitamin A and D were also significantly higher than the general product. CONCLUSION(s): Considering significant increment of $C_{max}$ and AUC, LaVita made of nano-emulsion could be more effective the absorption rate and extent for bioavailability of vitamin A, D & E than those of general product.

We have measured the optical properties, thickness, and energy band gap of the P $b_{1-x}$/100/L $a_{x}$100/ $Ti_{1-}$0.25x/100/ $O_{3}$ (PLT(x)) thin film prepared by the sol-gel method with varying the La concentration, x, fyom 15 nto 33 mol%. We have obtained the values from the tranmission spectrum and employed the envelope method in anayzing the spectrum. We have also performed the simulation of the transmission spectrum on the PC (personal computer) to verify the accuracy of the values 15 to 33mol%, the refractive index (at .lambda.=632.8nm) increases from 2.39 to 2.44. The extinction coefficient does not depend on the la concentration but mainly on te wavelength, and has the values between 0.2 and 0.5 at the wavelength shorter than 330nm and between 0.001 and 0.008 at the wavelength longer than 700nm. The energy band gap of the PLT (x) thin film has been obtained on the assumption of the direct band-to-band transition. It decreases from 3.28 to 3.17eV as the La concentration increases from 15 to 33 mol%. The thickness of the PLT(x) thin film has been also obtained in high accuracy by the envelope method..

Purpose : This study is to evaluate the synergistic cytotoxicity of Rhizoma Rehmanniae(RR), in adriamycin-treated HeLa human cervical carcinoma cells. Methods : We culture HeLa cell which is human metrocarcinoma cell in D-MEM included 10% fetal bovine serum(Hyclone Laboratories) below $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$. Then we observed apoptosis of log phage cell which is changed cultivation liquid 24 Hours periodically. Results : The combination of RR and adriamycin synergistically augmented the cytotoxicity of HeLa cells. The apoptotic cell death was accompanied by the activation of caspase-3 and -8 as well as cleavage of poly(ADP- ribose) polymerase (PARP) in HeLa cells. The co-treatment of RR with adriamycin didn't have any effect on either the expression of Bcl-2 or that of Bax. Interestingly, a synergistic increase in apoptosis by the combination of two drugs was accompanied by the enhancement of Pas and Fas ligand (FasL) expression in HeLa cells. Taken together, the combination of RR and adriamycin significantly augmented the apoptotic cytotoxicity of Fas-positive cells, such as HeLa cells. The pathway is not involved in mitochondria-dependent pathway. Conclusion : RR induces apoptosis in HeLa cells via p38 MAPK activation.

We investigate semi-symmetry and pseudo-symmetry of some 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds: the D'Atri spaces, the Thurston geometries as well as the ${\eta}$-Einstein manifolds. We prove that all these manifolds are pseudo-symmetric and that many of them are not semi-symmetric.
