Potassium cardioplegia for myocardial preservation is being used extensively in open heart surgery. This study was designed to investigate the change in serum and urine potassium before, during, after the administration of cold blood potassium cardioplegic solution containing 28-30 mEq/L [28.6\ulcorner.56 mEq/L] of potassium chloride in 6 dogs. Total potassium dose used in the study was 14.9\ulcorner.89 mEq/L [1.2 mEq/Kg]. Mean potassium level in serum was within normal limits. Urinary excretion of potassium decreased during bypass but increased after bypass and eventually exceeded the amount of potassium infused as cold blood potassium cardioplegic solution. While cold blood potassium cardioplegia is a safe and efficient method of myocardial protection, postoperative potassium level must be observed carefully in order to detect obligatory potassium excretion following open heart surgery.

The effects of potassium chloride and potassium sulphate on the volatilization of ammonia from acidic clayloam and tidal sandy clay loam soils applied with urea under flooded conditions were studied in a laboratory experiment. Results obtained were as follows; 1. The application of potassium to the acidic soil promoted the volatilization of ammonia through increasing soil pH. 2. The application of potassium to urea treated on the tidal soil which lead pH over 8.0 under flooded reduced conditions decreased the wet soil pH and reduced the volatilization of ammonia from the soil. These effects of potassium were more pronounced in the potassium sulphate treatment than in the potassium chloride. 3. More ammonia was volatilized from the acidic soil applied with potassium sulphate, however, the effects of potassium fertilizers applied to the high pH tidal soil seemed to be masked by high salt content of the soil. 4. Urea brought up soil pH significantly. Potassium sulphate was more effective than potassium chloride in raising pH of the acidic soil, though the reverse could be true in the tidal soil with high pH. The reduction of sulphate might be a major cause for the pH change.

An experiment was performed to investigate the combined effect of preservatives and the synergistic effect of sodium chloride to them on the inhibition of bacterial growth. Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium were cultured with or without shaking in liquid media (pH 6) of tryptone-glucose-yeast extract or tryptic soy broth which contained 0.1% potassium sorbate and/or 0.03% sodium benzoate, equivalent to half of the maximum permissible levels, respectively. The growth of E. coli was more inhibited with one or both of the two preservatives by shaking culture than by non-shaking culture. For S. typhimurium the single treatment of the preservatives did not show inhibitory effect whereas the combined treatment of them showed bacteriostatic effect in shaking culture and a prolongation of lag phase in non-shaking culture. Addition of 2% sodium chloride to either potassium sorbate or potassium sorbate plus sodium benzoate remarkably increased the growth inhibition of E. coli for non-shaking cultivation but no effect observed for shaking cultivation. S. typhimurium was more sensitive to the addition of sodium chloride than E. coli in both shaking and non-shaking culture to show lower viable cell counts than initial numbers.

Separation of cesium chloride (CsCl) and strontium chloride ($SrCl_2$) from the lithium chloride-potassium chloride (LiCl-KCl) salt was studied using a melt crystallization process similar to the reverse vertical Bridgeman growth technique. A ternary $SrCl_2-LiCl-KCl$ salt was explored at similar growth rates (1.8-5 mm/h) and compared with CsCl ternary results to identify similarities. Quaternary experiments were also conducted and compared with the ternary cases to identify trends and possible limitations to the separations process. In the ternary case, as much as 68% of the total salt could be recycled per batch process. In the quaternary experiments, separation of Cs and Sr was nearly identical at the slower rates; however, as the growth rate increased, $SrCl_2$ separated more easily than CsCl. The quaternary results show less separation and rate dependence than in both ternary cases. As an estimated result, only 51% of the total salt could be recycled per batch. Furthermore, two models have been explored to further understand the growth process and separation. A comparison of the experimental and modeling results reveals that the nonmixed model fits reasonably well with the ternary and quaternary data sets. A dimensional analysis was performed and a correlation was identified to semipredict the segregation coefficient.

The biosynthesis of galactolipid, galactose and the fatty acid composition in E. cdi and B. subtills treated with potassium dichromate(PD, 500 ppm, 500 ppm), potassium chromate(PC, 500 ppm, 500 ppm), cobalt chloride(CC, 100 ppm, 10 ppm) and methylmercuric chloride(MC, 100 ppm, 10 ppm) during the culture were analyzed to compare with the control. The growth rate of cells, the contents of monogalactosyldiglyceride(MGDG), digalactosyldiglyceride(DGDG) and total lipid in the metal compound treatments were lower as compared with the control. And too, the contents of galactose utilized for the biosynthesis of galactolipids in these strains in the various metal compounds treatments were inhibited. The fatty acids used for the MGDG and DGDG formation in E. coli and B. subtills treated with each metal compounds during the culture were showed to the variant compositional change.

The effect of wallastonite, potassium chloride and potassium sulphate on the ammonification and nitrification of urea was studied in a non-planted green house experiment, filling with 500g soil in plastic pot and incubating for 17 days. Potassium sulphate gave superior effect on the neutralizing soil acidity of wallastonite than potassium chloride and raised soil pH which promoted ammonification and subsequent nitrification of urea. Less than 20% $NO_3-N$ against the sum of $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ was accumulated in soils incubated bellow pH 6.0. It seemed that pH 5.2 to 6.0 was the critical range for the nitrification of ammonium, or raising the concentration of ammonia in soils to the toxic level to the nitrification. It appeared that the nitrification could be occuring in low moisture, air dried, conditions of soil.

The reaction of potassium trialkoxyborohydrides of varying steric requirements with lithium chloride in tetrahydrofuran(THF) was examined in detail to establish the generality of this synthesis of the corresponding lithium trialkoxyborohydrides. The metal ion exchange reaction between potassium triisopropoxyborohydride and lithium chloride in THF proceeded instantly at room temperature and the corresponding lithium salt was very stable toward disproportionation. However, for R = s-Bu, t-Bu and 2-methylcyclohexyl, with increasing steric requirement, the lithium derivatives were unstable and thus dissociated into $(RO)BH_3^-\;and\; (RO)_4B^-$. The stereoselectivity of lithium triisopropoxyborohydride(LIPBH) in the reduction of representative cyclic ketones was examined and compared with that of the potassium derivative.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dental therapeutic agent on conduction velocity and threshold current of intradental A- and C-fibers in the cat. Inferior alveolar nerve of cat anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital was exposed and dissected until response of functional single pulp nerve until could be evoked by monopolar electrical stimulation of the crown of the lower left canine teeth. 10ms rectangular pulse was used to determine the threshold current and 1ms rectangular pulse was used to determine conduction velocity. After application of calcium chloride (1, 2, 6M), calcium hydroxide mixed with saline, potassium chloride (0.2, 0.8, 1.6M), eugenol, zinc oxide eugenol to the cavity on the labial surface, conduction velocity and threshold current of single pulp nerve unit were compared with the control. In 10 cats, 24 $A{\delta}$- and 11 C- pulp nerve units were recorded. The mean conduction velocities of $A{\delta}$- and C-fibers were 7.5m/sec (SD=5.8) and 1.2m/sec (SD=0.4), respectively. The mean threshold current was $12.3{\mu}A$ (SD=5.3) for $A{\delta}$-fibers and $24.9{\mu}A$ (SD=8.1) for C-fibers. 1, 2, 6M calcium chloride caused decrease of conduction velocity and remarkable increase of threshold current in $A{\delta}$- and C-fibers. The effect of calcium hydroxide mixed with saline was similar but smaller than calcium chloride solution. 0.2M potassium chloride had insignificant effect. In 0.8M potassium chloride, the threshold current was increased although conduction velocity was not affected. In 1.6M potassium chloride, the threshold current was increased and the conduction velocity was slowed down. Spontaneous activity was recorded frequently for first 5 min but gradually reduced both in $A{\delta}$- and C-fibers. Eugenol had irreversible effect on pulp nerve in that initially there were not certain changes in the conduction velocity and threshold current of $A{\delta}$- and C-fibers, but the responses to electrical stimulation were abruptly disappeared after sustained application and were not recovered. Contrary to eugenol, zinc oxide eugenol did not caused significant increase of the threhold current and caused time dependent decrease of the conduction velocity, and did not show any irreversible change.
