In this study, the hydrolysis of green macro-algae Enteromorpha intestinalis using solid acid catalyst was conducted to obtain total reducing sugar. The hydrolysis was optimized with four reaction parameters of liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratio, catalyst amount, reaction temperature, and reaction time. As a optimized result, the highest TRS of 7.74 g/L was obtained under condition of 7.5 L/S ratio, $140^{\circ}C$, 15% catalyst amount and 2 hr. By the way, at this condition, only 0.13 g/L 5-HMF was detected. The solid acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of marine resources had the potential in the field of bioenergy.

The reaction of steam reforming of methane with commercial catalysts was conducted for thermochemical heat storage. The reaction conditions were investigated for temperature range of 700 to $900\;^{\circ}C$ and steam to carbon mole ratios between 3.0 and 5.0. The reactor was made of stainless steel and it's dimension was 12 cm inside diameter and 6cm long. The effects of space velocity and reactants mole ratio and temperature on the methane conversion and CO selectivity were examined. Optimum reaction condition was determined. There was not a significant difference of methane conversion and CO selectivity compared to conventional reactor.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of auditory cues in the form of a metronome on gait initiation (GI) in Parkinson's disease (PD). 2 patients (mean age: 54 yrs) with idiopathic PD participated in the study. All patients (Hoehn and Yahr disability score of 2.0) were tested in the "on" state approximately 1.5 hours following the administration and fully responding to their PD medications. Subjects first initiated walking at self-initiated speeds to determine their cadences. Then, subjects were asked to initiate gait along the walkway while keeping pace with a metronome. The metronome rate (in beats/min) was set at a cadence 85% (slow condition), 100% (normal condition) and 115% (fast condition) of gait for each subject. Subjects were able to increase the speed of GI with faster cadence, but the speed of GI for the slow condition was similar to that of the normal condition. Swing toe-off was 578.3 ms for the fast condition, 709.4 ms for the normal condition and 736.2 ms for the slow condition. Respective times for swing heel-strike were 894.3 ms, 1110.2 ms and 1119.1 ms, and stance toe-off were 1105.4 ms, 1338.5 ms, and 1343.1 ms. Except for stance unloading ground reaction forces were greatest for the fast condition and smallest for the slow condition. It appears that PD patients were able to modulate GRFs and temporal events in response to auditory cues to achieve the peak acceleration force of the swing and stance limb. The findings from this study provided preliminary data, which could be used to investigate how PD patients modulate GRFs and temporal events during GI in response to tasks.

Objective : The purpose of this report is to introduce hypersensitivity reaction of bee venom pharmacopuncture, and remind caution when use bee venom pharmacopuncture. Methods : After skin test, we were treated with bee venom pharmacopuncture to severe lower back pain and facial palsy patients depending on the state of the individual. After the treatment, bee venom hypersensitivity reaction was appeared, and we retreated hypersensitivity reaction depending on progress. Result & Conclusion : Hypersensitivity reaction of bee venom appears as various symptoms depending on the patient's condition, procedure amount and procedure point. We might reinforce skin test, and remind caution when use bee venom pharmacopuncture.

This study aims to propose a fundamental report for pozzolan reaction of discarded Bentonite by heat-treatment as concrete mineral admixture. As discarded bentonite is clay mineral to contain a great quantity a lot of $SiO_2$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$, it is anticipated to reveal pozzolan reaction ability by heat-treatment. To find out pozzolan reaction ability of discarded Bentonite slurry by heat-treatment, the experiment is excuted Phenolphtalein test, setting test, pH test and the analysis by X-ray diffractor. As a result of this study, discarded Bentonite slurry can be utilized as concrete mineral admixture by heat-treatment and especially, pozzolan reaction ability of discarded Bentonite slurry is superior to the situation of 50$0^{\circ}C$~$700^{\circ}C$, 60min.

The photochemical carcinogenic reaction mechanism and molecular carcinogenic intensity through the reaction of dibromo carbene and diazomethane with dehydroacetic acid and coumarin have been studied under the two kinds of photolysis. The reaction intensities show the degree of carcinogenic activity. Under the condition of UV/vis light source, the yield of high toxic carcinogenetic carbene intermediate is produced less than those of the laser flash photolysis.

$Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_{3}$ (PZT) ceramics were prepared with uniform particle size of $1~3\;\mu\textrm{m}$ by hydrothermal synthesis at various conditions, such as hydrothermal reaction temperature, concentration of mineralizer and reaction time. PZT ceramics were formed above $180^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs reaction using 10 M KOH solution as a mineralizer, but reaction condition was slightly different by starting materials. Morphology and characterization of PZT powders were investigated by XRD and SEM. By increasing the reaction temperature, KOH concentration and reaction time, the composition of the PZT phase tended to be homogeneous phase.

In fly ash-lime system the effects of reaction condition amounts of gypsum and cement and CaO/SiO2 ratio on the hydrates by hydrothermal reaction were investigated. The tobermorite phases were not observed in hy-drothermal reaction of fly ash lime because of the hydrate rate was very slow. The compressive strength and the hydration rate increased with increasing the amount of gypusm and cement and the optimum amounts of gypsumo and cement were 5wt and 20wt% respectively. The specimen which CaO/SiO2 ratio is 0.85 was shown the maximum compressive strength and the tobermorite phase within reaction time 2 hours.

The burning velocities of conventional and oxygen-enriched methane flame in various equivalence ratio were determined by experiments. The validity of existing reaction mechanisms was examined in oxygen-enriched flame on the basis of the experiment results. Modified reaction mechanism is suggested, which was able to predict burning velocity of oxygen enriched flame as well as methane-air flame. Complementary study on reaction mechanisms shows the following results : Present experiment data were found to be more reliable in comparison with existing ones in a oxygen-enrichment condition. It was found that some modification in existing reaction mechanisms is necessary, since discrepancy between measurements and predictions is increasing with oxygen enrichment ratio. The sensitivity analysis was performed to discriminate the dominantly affecting reactions on the burning velocity in various oxygen enrichment and equivalence ratio. A modified GRI 3.0 reaction mechanism based on our experiment results was suggested, in which reaction rate coefficients of (R38) H+O$_2$<=>O+OH in GRI 3.0 reaction mechanisms were corrected based on sensitivity analysis results. This mechanism showed a good agreement in predicting the burning velocity and number density of NO in oxygen-enriched flame and would provide proper reaction information of oxygen-enriched flame at this stage.

In this study, a chlorination technique for recycling Li₂ZrO₃, a reaction product of ZrO₂-assisted rinsing process, was investigated to minimize the generation of secondary radioactive pyroprocessing waste. It was found that the reaction temperature was a key parameter that determined the reaction rate and maximum conversion ratio. In the temperature range of 400-600℃, an increase in the reaction temperature resulted in a profound increase in the reaction rate. Hence, according to the experimental results, a reaction temperature of at least 450℃ was proposed to ensure a Li₂ZrO₃ conversion ratio that exceeded 80% within 8 h of the reaction time. The activation energy was found to be 102 ± 2 kJ·mol^-1·K^-1 between 450 and 500℃. The formation of LiCl and ZrO₂ as reaction products was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. The experimental results obtained at various total flow rates revealed that the overall reaction rate depends on the Cl₂ mass transfer rate in the experimental condition. The results of this study prove that the chlorination technique provides a solution to minimize the amount of radioactive waste generated during the ZrO₂-assisted rinsing process.
