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.

Barley yellow mosaic virus (BaYMV-HN) occurring Haenam area was isolated by mechanical inoculation onto barley cultivars, purification and production of antibody. BaYV-HN were purified from infected plants a filamentous virus with 13 nm in diameter and 250∼300 nm and 500∼650 nm in length. Specific antibody made by injecting the purified virus to the muscle of a rabbit. In gel-diffusion tests antibody to BaYMV-HN did not make spur with tow Japanese BaYMV isolates BaYMV-II-1 or BaYMV-III. BaYMV-HN showed the symptom of yellowing and necrosis in host plants. Mechanical inoculation tests with Japanese barley cultivars showed that BaYMV-HN infected New Golden, Akagi Nijo and Tosan Kawa 73, but did not infect Amagi Nijo, Haruna Nijo, Ishukushirazu (ym3), Misato Golden (Ym1), Kashimamugi, Joshushiro Hadaka and Mokusekko 3 (ym1). In Korean barley cultivars, some of the naked barleys which are Hinssalbori, Kinssalbori, Saessalbori and Saechalssalbori were not infected by BaYMV-HN. However, it infected all the covered barley cultivars and the beer barley cultivars. BaYMV-HN had two RNAs, RNA 1 (7.6 Kb) and RNA 2 (3.5 Kb), and one coat protein (33 KDa).

Barley mild mosaic virus (BaMMV-Kor) was isolated from the southern part of Korea, and by mechanical inoculation onto barley cultivars, purification and production of antibody. BaMMV-Kor purified form infected plants were filamentous particle, with 13 nm in diameter and 250∼300 nm and 500∼650 nm in length. Antibody of BaMMV-Kor was made by injecting the purified virus to the muscle of a rabbit. In gel-diffusion test, antibody to BaMMV-Kor created spur with BaMMV-Kal and BaMMV-M, but did not make spur with BaMMV-Kor infected New Golden, Ishukushirazu, Joshushiro Hadaka and Misato Golden, but did not infect Kashimamugi, Chikurin Ibaraki 1 and Mokusekko 3. In Korean barley cultivars, BaMMV-Kor infected most of the covered barley cultivars, but did not infect Saeolbori. It also infected naked barley cultivars except Chalbori and Hinssalbori. And all the beer barley cultivars were infected by BaMMV-Kor. BaMMV-Kor had two RNAs, RNA 1 (7.5 Kb) and RNA 2 (3.5 Kb), and coat protein (33 KDa).

A virus was purified from Korean cactus (Chamaeaereus silverstrii f. Variegata Hort) showing necrotic spots and its biophysicochemical properties were examined. The typical necrotic spots were observed on healthy looking cactus inoculated with the purified virus and the various symptoms from necrotic spots to systemic were observed on 17 species of test plats used, which suggests that the purified virus has the normal infectivity and wide host range. Ultraviolet absorption scanning analysis revealed that the viral preparation had the typical curve with shoulder at 290 nm and its ratio of absorbances at 260 nm to 280 nm and extinction coefficient was 1.156 and 2.86, respectively. The virus represented one distinct and homogeneous band and molecular weight of viral coat protein was determined to 17, 000 Dalton by SDS-PAGE. The virus revealed rod-shaped virion (325$\times$20 nm) by electron microscopy. Based on these results, it has been thought that the virus purified in this study is the pathogenic agents causing necrotic spot symptom on Korean cacuts and one of the member of tobamovirus family.

1. The purified soybean hemagglutinin isolated from Korean soybean through the calcium phosphate column chromatography was found to contain mannose (4.9%) and glucosamine (1.1%) added to the protein portion. 2. The fractions I,II,III, the impurities accompanied by hemagglutinin during the final purification were proved to be new plant glycoproteins that were seemingly paper electrophoretically homogeneous and had the same mobility. 3. The carbohydrate and nitrogen contents of I,II,III were 4.5%, 1.13%, 1.1% in mannose, 0.5%, 1.2%, 1.22% in glucosamine and 12.8%, 15.5%, 13.9% in nitrogen respectively.

One hundred and eighty-six leaves of soybean cv. Seokryangputkong that showed mild mosaic symptoms were collected randomly and ELISA tests were conducted with those leaf samples to screen the presence of Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV). Ninety-three out of 186 samples reacted positively to CPMV, but those samples did negatively to Soybean mosaic virus (SMV). At least, 55 leaf samples revealed higher values than that of positive control. The results strongly confirmed that CPMV occurred severely in soybean cv. Seokryangputkong. However, a question is raised on the primary reservoir and vector for transmission of this virus. Since the farmer changes seeds every year, seed transmission is excluded. The virus was also purified, the analysis of coat protein conformed the virus of cowpea mosaic virus and UV absorption pattern confirmed that the causal virus of mosaic disease in soybean putkong was cowpea mosaic virus.

To improve T-N and T-P removal efficiencies, removal efficiencies of pollutants in full-scale livestock wastewater treatment plant by natural purification method with water plant filtration and activated sludge beds were investigated under different re-injection rates and injection methods of livestock wastewater. The removal rates of COD, SS, T-N, and T-P in effluent in full-scale livestock wastewater treatment plant were in the order of 30% < 70% ${\leq}$ 100 % at different re-injection rates. The removal rates of pollutants in effluent in full-scale livestock wastewater treatment plant were higher as re-injection rate of livestock wastewater increased. Removal rates of COD, SS, T-N, and T-P by continuous injection were slightly higher than those by intermittent injection method in full-scale livestock wastewater treatment plant. Removal rates of COD, SS, T-N, and T-P by continuous injection method in full-scale livestock wastewater treatment plant with water plant filtration and activated sludge beds were 99.5, 99.8, 99.0 and 99.8%, respectively.

The use of a room-temperature gamma spectrometer is an issue in environmental radiation monitoring. To monitor radionuclides released around a nuclear power plant, suitable instruments giving fast and reliable information are required. High-pressure xenon (HPXe) chambers have range of resolution and efficiency equivalent to those of other medium resolution detectors such as those using NaI(Tl), CdZnTe, and $LaBr_3:Ce$. An HPXe chamber could be a cost-effective alternative, assuming temperature stability and reliability. The CEA LIST actively studied and developed HPXe-based technology applied for environmental monitoring. Xenon purification and conditioning was performed. The design of a 4-L HPXe detector was performed to minimize the detector capacitance and the required power supply. Simulations were done with the MCNPX2.7 particle transport code to estimate the intrinsic efficiency of the HPXe detector. A behavioral study dealing with ballistic deficits and electronic noise will be utilized to provide perspective for further analysis.

Chitinase, a potential pathogensis- related portein, was induced in the leaves of 30 day - old bean( phaseolus vulgaris ) plant with the treatment of 10 $\mu $ /mℓ ethylen for 30hrs. Chitinase was purified from the mature tissue of bean leaves( phaseolus vulgaris ) by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by affinity chromatography on a regenerated chitin and sephadex G-75 chromatography. The purified chitinase gave a single band SDS- PAGE to be 32,000 Dalton. In order to elucidate the three- dimensional structure of chitinase and to shed light on the functional mechanism of this class of enzymes, the enzyme was tried to crystallize( Sitting Drop Method). Crystals grew at room temperature to their final size within two weeks(0.2mm $\times $0.2mm $\times $ 0.1 mm ), This enzyme are still continuing to crystallize for the study of X- ray.
