Lipid from Scenedesmus sp. was extracted, fractionated and purified by silicic acid column chromatography. Total lipid content of extract was $21.38{\pm}1.03$ wt%, and triacylglycerol, an index lipid for biodiesel production was detected. Ten species of $C_{16}{\sim}C_{22}$ with saturated and unsaturated fatty acid were identified showing the very adequate fatty acid profiles for biodiesel production with a good flow property at low temperature. The fractions of glycolipid, neutral and phospholipid were 52.64, 28.10 and 19.26% of total lipid, respectively. The triacylglycerol of 12.63% and chlorophyll a of 49.47% was fractioned using stepwise elution of n-hexane-diethyl ether (95:5, v/v) solvent. The high content of chlorophyll was considered as a potential source of value-added co-product.

Sand filter is a key unit process for particle removal in water purification treatments. Its long-standing use is due to on-site customized retrofit. Proper selection of filter media is one of the retrofit approaches to improve filter performance. This study described a series of controlled laboratory column tests and examined the effects of media property on filtration and backwash. When sand media of 0.51 mm in effective size was replaced by sand of 0.60 mm, the filter run increased up to 5 times in the given bed depth. The change of media property required an increase of backwash rate by 0.05 m/min to satisfy the requirement of bed expansion, more than 20%. When the anthracite was changed with lower effective size and uniformity coefficient, correlation with sand in the filter bed could be satisfied within the permissible error between media and bulk characteristics. Besides, this selection resulted in a well-stratified configuration of media layers after bed expansion. The column study showed that the correlation of property between the dual media had a significant effect on the filter productivity and backwash interval.

Reverse gyrase is a hyperthermophile specific protein which introduces positive supercoils into DNA molecules. Reverse gyrase consists of an N-terminal helicase-like domain and a C-terminal topoisomerase domain. The helicase-like domain shares the three-dimensional structure with two tandem RecA-folds (H1 and H2), in which the subdomain H2 is interrupted by the latch domain (H3). To understand the physical property of the hyperthermophile-specific protein, two subdomains af_H1 and af_H23 have been cloned into E. coli expression vector, pET28a. The $^{15}N$-labeled af_H1 and af_H23 proteins were expressed and purified for heteronuclear NMR study. The af_H1 protein exhibits the well-dispersion of amide signals in its $^1H/^{15}N$-HSQC spectra and thus further NMR study continues to be progressed.

Myrosinase from Korean cabbage(Bogdoli) was purified and its enzymatic properties were investigated. Myrosinase from the Korean cabbage was purified by DEAE Bio-Gel Sepharose, Concanavalin-A, and Mono-Q column chromatography and exhibited a 55KD molecular weight with a single band on the gel of SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was purified about 21-fold compared to its crude enzyme and a specific activity of purified enzyme was 15, 120units/mg. Optimum pH of the myrosinase was 7.0 in both phosphate and Tris-HCl buffer solutions, the enzyme was stable at pH 6.5~7.0. Optimum temperature of enzyme was 37~38$^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was significantly inhibited by Cu2+ and Hg2+, but enhanced by ascorbic acid, resulting in a maximum activity at 1mM ascorbic acid. Among the ascorbic acid analogues, dehydro-ascorbic acid did not affect, whereas others showed a little effect on the enzyme activity, but less than ascorbic acid itself. Reducing agents such as 2-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol had no effect on the enzyme activity, but the enzyme activity was enhanced when 2-mercaptoethanol was mixed with ascorbic acid.

An $\alpha$-D-galactosidase ($\alpha$-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3. 2. 1. 22) from earthworm was purified by affinity chromatography using N-$\varepsilon$-aminocaproyl-$\alpha$-D-galactopyranosylamine coupled to sepharose and its properties were examined. The specific activity of the purified enzyme, tested with p-nitrophenyl-$\alpha$-D-galactopyranoside as substrate, was 314 units/mg protein, representing an 122-fold purification of the original crude extract. The final preparation obtained from by Sephadex G-25 chromatography showed a single band on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight was determined to be 48,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified galactosidase was showed maximum activity at pH 4.5 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, and was stable in the pH and temperature ranges from 4.0 to 5.5 and 30 to 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Zn2+, Hg2+ and Co2+. When the purified $\alpha$-galactosidase treated to guar gum for 6 hour, gel-promoting property was increased. It was clear that enzymatic elimination of galactose from guar gum by purified $\alpha$-galactosidase would lead to a significant increase in gelation ability.

The polyester fabrics were treated with the chitosan with various solubility in optimized treatment condition. The treatment method was discussed to be a high functional finishing for the polyester fabric to obtain the high moisture absorption and anti-microorganism property by evaluating the effect of the chitosan purification method on the yield and anti-microorganism property of the chitosan. On the other hand, soluble polyurethane was added to the chitosan treatment solution and/or plasma pretreatment was done. The addition of soluble polyurethane give a high add-on ratio as well as a linen like effect of treated polyester fabric. The results were as follows: 1. In the treatment of polyester fabric by the chitosan solution, a soluble PU resin and low temperature plasma treatment were done to obtain high binding force between the fabrics and the chitosan. The add-on rate and the moisture absorption ratio of the fabrics treated with the chitosan-PU after treated with the plasma slightly increased more than those of the fabrics treated with the chitosan only. 2. Anti-static property of the fabrics treated with the chitosan decreased rapidly with increasing of the chitosan concentration. The washing fastness of the fabrics treated with the chitosan-PU after treated with the plasma was better than those of the fabrics treated with chitosan only. The wrinkle resistance of the treated fabrics decreased constantly with the concentration of the chitosan. The bending rigidity of the treated fabrics increased greatly. On the treatment of polyester fabric under optimum condition, the microorganism reduction rate kept above 90％ after 10times launderings. 3. As the polyester fabrics which has flat yam was used as a weft yams were treated with the chitosan-PU as give a functional finishing effects such as durability, moisture absorption, anti-static and anti- microorganism property. Treated polyester fabric showed a good functional finishing effect and a linen like property.

High-quality single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were synthesized by catalytic decomposition of $C_2H_2$ using Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst at $800^{\circ}C$. The as-synthesized SWCNTs typically occurred in the form of a bundle with a diameter of 10~20 nm together with amorphous carbon and catalytic impurities, which were removed by a two-step purification process consisting of oxidation and an acid treatment. The oxidation step, using an $O_2$-Ar mixture at $380^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr in a vertical-type furnace and a $HNO_3$ treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ for one hour, was utilized to remove the amorphous carbon particles. Subsequently, metallic catalysts were removed in HCl at room temperature for 5 hr under magnetic stirring. The SWCNT suspension was prepared by dispersing the purified SWCNTs in an aqueous sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate solution with horn-type sonication. This was then air-sprayed on glass to fabricate CNT field emitters. The samples had a turn-on field value of 4 V/${\mu}m$ and a current density of 0.67 mA/$cm^2$ at 9 V/${\mu}m$. Increasing the HCl treatment time improved the field emission properties.

한국산 겨자에서 myrosinase를 분리 및 정제하고, 이들의 효소학적 특성을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 겨자 myrosinase를 DEAE-cellulose, Concanavalin A-Sepharose 및 FPLC Soporose 6 칼럼을 이용하여 분리 및 정제하였을 때 적어도 3개의 이성효소가 존재하는 것으로 나타났으며, Myrosinase II-2의 최종 비활성도는 57.lunits/mg, 정제도는 약 248배였다. SDS-PAGE상에서 myrosinase(II-2)의 단일밴드를 확인한 결과, 그 분자량은 약 67KD로 추정 되었다. 최적 pH는 phosphate 및 Tris-HCI 완충액에서 7.0이 가장 활성이 높았고, 그 효소는 pH 7.0에서 안정하였으며, 최적 활성을 나타내는 온도는 $37^{\circ}C$ 부근이었고, $40^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 비교적 불안정하게 나타났다. Ascorbic acid의 영향은 1mM에서 가장 안정하였으며, 그 이상의 농도에서는 변화가 없었다. 망간과 마그네슘 및 나트륨은 효소활성을 촉진시키는 것으로 나타났으며 구리, 수은 및 철 이온은 약간 저해하였다. Ascorbic acid analogue 중 dehydroascorbic acid는 효소 활성을 저해하였으며, 나머지 것들은 거의 영향을 미치지 않았다. 2-Mer-captoethanol과 dithiothreitol과 같은 환원제는 효소활성을 억제하였으나 이들과 ascorbic acid를 함께 첨가 하였을 때는 활성이 다소 증가하였다.

바이오매스 유래 항암물질 paclitaxel 정제를 위하여, 물리적 특성이 다른 메조기공 알루미나 흡착제를 제조하여 흡착제 처리 효과를 조사하였다. 알루미나의 물리적 특성 중 표면적과 기공부피 보다는 기공크기(기공지름)이 흡착제 처리효과에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 특히 적절한 기공크기(기공지름: 10.8 nm)에서 식물유래 타르 및 왁스 성분을 포함한 불순물을 제거하는데 가장 효과적이었다. 일정한 기공크기에서 흡착제의 표면적은 paclitaxel 순도뿐만 아니라 수율에 많은 영향을 미치며 흡착제의 표면적이 증가할수록 paclitaxel과 불순물(바이오매스 유래 타르 및 왁스 성분 포함)의 흡착 정도는 증가하였다. 이러한 불순물 제거 효과는 흡착제 처리 후 흡착제를 메탄올로 세척하여 HPLC로 분석한 결과와 흡착제에 붙은 유기물의 TGA 정량 분석 결과로도 확인할 수 있었다.
