Conversion of Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment into blue-green pigment by 8 bacterial species was examed. Bioconversion pattern can be categorized into three types according to absorption spectra characteristics. The same pattern of the value of ${\Delta}E$ estimated by color differencemeter was also observed. Conversion rate by S. epidermidis was faster than other bacterial species. It took 16 hour for S. epidermidis to convert pigment at $37^{\circ}C$. Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment and conversion pigment were completely separated by Amberlite XAD column chromatography with $H_2O-MeOH$ solvent system. Storage stability of the conversion pigment was better than Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment.

The characteristcs of monascus fermentation using a hyperpigment-producing mutant, Monascus sp. J101, were analyzed, and the extractive fermentations employing permeabilizing agents and resin were carried out to increase the productivity of red pigment. And the kinetic analysis was also carried out in case of the monascus fermentation using Amberlite XAD-7. The extracellular content of the red pigment produced by Monascus sp. J101 was about 17% of the total, and the production of pigment was regulated by its own product. The cell growth reached a stationary phase at 48 hours ofter inoculation, whereas the pigment production continued up to 100 hours, which showed the pattern of a mixed growth-associated type. During the fermentation, various permeabilizing agents were added to the culture medium and their effects on pigment production were examined. By adding 0.05% Triton X-100 at 48 hours of cultivation, about an 18% increase in pigment production was accomplished as compared to the control, 12% ethyle acetate and 15% for 0.05% deoxycholate, respectively. When a nonionic adsorbent, Amberlite XAD-7 was added to the culture medium at a concentration of 12.0% at 48 hours of cultivation, the pigment production was enhanced by about 48.9% as compared to the control.

A new column-switching high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of lonazolac in plasma. This method was based on the on-line trace enrichment of lonazolac using a precolumn packed with Amberlite XAD-2. The analysis was complete in 20 min. between injections and the limit of detection was $0.1{\mu}g/ml$ using $100{\mu}l$ of plasma. The method was linear in range of $0.1-10{\mu}g/ml$ with a correlation coefficient of 0.9991. Absolute recovery of lonazolac from the spiked plasma samples ranged from 95.6% to 97.1%. The method was shown to be reproducible over the concentration range studied.

The adsorption behavior of 8-hydroxyquinoline (8HQ) on Amberlite XAD-4 and-7 resins was investigated by measuring its distribution coefficients under various experimental conditions, such as shaking time, pH and concentration of methanol in the medium. The application of 8HQ-impregnated-XAD resins for the absorption and separation of metal ions was studied. The maximum adsorption of 8HQ on XAD resins was observed in the 30% methanol solution having pH range from 6.0 to 9.0. The impregnation capacities of XAD resins for 8HQ were 3.81${\times}$10-2mmol, 8HQ/g, XAD-4 resins and 2.60${\times}$10-2mmol, 8HQ/g, XAD-7 resin, respectively. The 8HQ-impregnated-XAD resins were stable in pH range from 6.0 to 10.0 and the amount of 8HQ leached from XAD-4 resin by eluting with hydrochloric acid(above 5M) was negligible. The optimum pH range for the adsorption of metal ions on 8HQ-impregnated XAD resin was also 6.0 to 10.0, and the adsorption mole ratio of metal ion to 8HQ were 1 : 2 for Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II), and 1 : 3 for Fe(III) at the above pH range. It was found that the absorbed metal ions on 8HQ-impregnated-XAD resins were recovered quantitatively with 5M HCl and 8HQ-impregnated-XAD-4 resin could be reusable over 5 times without decrease in its impregnation capacity.

Reverse phase liquid chromatographic elution behaviors of salicylic acid and its derivatives were studied with classical and modern high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) using Amberlite XAD-4 and XAD-7 resin packed columns. Capacity factors(k') were determined in the comparatively high concentration(from 0. 010F to 0. 150F) of ferric nitrate-50% methanol solution to elucidate the elution behaviors with classical method. On the other hand, k's were measured in the various concentrations of methanol and ferric nitrate(from $2.5{\times}10^{-4}F\;to\;1.0{\times}10^{-3}F$) solution of pH 2. 25 and 293K with HPLC to explain the elution mechanism of them, and to find their optimum separation condition. As a result, it was found that log k's of salicylic acid and its derivatives were decreased with increasing the concentration of ferric ion, and the decreasing slopes of the compounds on the increasing ferric ion concentrations were related with each stability constant of ferric salicylates. Some isomers of derivatives of salicylic acid could be separated in the optimum condition.

The adsorption behavior of aromatic acids on Amberlite XAD-4 resin was investigated by measuring the distribution coefficient by batch method. The adsorption of solutes on XAD-4 was affected by the several factors such as, analyte concentration, the pH of solution and concentration of pairing ion. The enhanced adsorption of solutes on XAD-4 in the presence of tetraalkylammonium salt as an ion pairing reagent, referred to as ion interaction, was suggested to follow a double layer model where the pairing ion occupies a primary layer at the adsorbent while the solute anion and other anions in the system comlpete for the secondary layer. Therefore, the ability of an ion pairing reagent to enhance solute adsorption depended significantly on the type and concentration of counter-ion and co-anion accompanying the ion pairing reagent or salt used for ionic strength control. In addition, a good linear relationship between the logarithm of capacity factors measured by batch and elution method as a function of the concentration of ion pairing reagent and methanol can be used to predict the retention in elution method on the basis of capacity factors measured by batch method.

Optimum conditions for immobilization of thermolysin, a metalloendopeptidase catalyzing synthesis of aspartame precursors, were investigated with using Amberlie XAD-7 as carrier and glutaraldehyde as cross-linking agent. Adsorption of thermolysin onto the carrier was rapid at the initial stage and 96% of the enzyme was adsorbed after 24 hours at $5^{\circ}C$. There was a linear relationship between amount of thermolysin adsorbed and thermolysin loaded upto 300g per liter of carrier. The effective range of cross-linking time, concentration of glutaraldehyde and pH for immobilization of the enzyme were $3{\sim}7\;hours,\;6{\sim}12.5%\;and\;pH\;6.0{\sim}7.0$, respectively. Degree of cross-linking and residual enzyme activity were high when cross-linked for 7 hours with 6% glutaraldehyde or for 3 hours with 12.5% glutaraldehyde. The residual enzyme activity was over 30% under these conditions.

Two chelating resins, XAD-16-TAC and XAD-16-TAO were synthesized by Amberlite XAD-16 macroreticular resin with 2-(2-thiazolylazo)-p-cresol (TAC) and 4-(2-thiazolylazo)-orcinol (TAO) as functional groups. The sorption behaviour of Zr(IV), Th(IV) and U(VI) with two chelating resins were examined with respect to the effect of pH and masking agent by batch methods. It was obtained that the optimum pH was in the range of 5-6, and two chelating resins showed good separation efficiency of Zr(IV) or Th(IV) by using $NH_4F$ as a masking agent. Characteristics of desorption were investigated with 0.1-2 M $HNO_3$ as desorption agent. It was found that 2 M $HNO_3$ showed high desorption efficiency to most of metal ions except Zr(IV). XAD-16-TAC resin is applied to separation and preconcentration of trace Zr(IV) from mixed metal ions. Also, Th(IV) ion can be successfully separated from U(VI) and Zr(IV) ion by using XAD-16- TAO resin.

A method has been described for the determination of Cu(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Cd(Ⅱ), Mn(Ⅱ) and Fe(Ⅲ) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) after preconcentration on Amberlite XAD-16 resin, using hexamethyleneammonium-hexamethylenedithiocarbamate (HMA-HMDTC) as a chelating agent, and NH3/NH4Cl buffer solution (pH 9). Influences of various analytical parameters such as pH, concentration of nitric acid, amount of analytes, diverse ions and sample volume were investigated. The relative standard deviation (RSD) and the detection limit (LOD) were found in the range of 0.8-2.9% and 0.006-0.277 ㎍/mL,respectively. Recoveries obtained by the column method were quantitative ( >95%) at optimum conditions.The method was applied to the determination of some metal ions in seawater and wastewater samples. A high preconcentration factor (about 150 for seawater and 75 for wastewater samples) and simplicity are the main advantages of this suggested method.

Some sorption behaviors of U(VI) ion on Arsenazo I-XAD-2 chelating resin were investigated. This chelating resin was synthesized by the diazonium coupling of Amberlite XAD-2 resin with Arsenzo I chelating reagent and characterized by elementary analysis method and IR spectrometry. The optimum conditions for the sorption of U(VI) ion were examined with respect to pH, U(VI) ion concentration and shaking time. Total sorption capacity of this chelating resin on U(VI) ion was 0.39mmol U(VI)/g resin in the pH range of 4.0~4.5. This chelating resin was showed increased sorption capacity on the increased pH value. It was confirmed that sorption mechanism of U(VI) ion on the Arsenazo I-XAD-2 chelating resin was competition reacting between U(VI) ion and $H^+$ ion. Breakthrough volume and overall capacity of U(VI) ion measured by column were was 600 ml and 0.38 mmol U(VI)/g resin, respectively. The desorption of U(VI) ion was showed recovery of 90~96% using 3M $HNO_3$ and 3M $Na_2CO_3$ as a desorption solution. The separation and concentration of U(VI) ion from natural water and sea water was performed successfully by Arsenazo I-XAD-2 chelating resin.
