In Chinese medicine, it is said that Aconiti tuber has cardiotonic, diuretic and analgesic effects. Kim et al reported that alkaloid free part of Aconiti tuber, $CHCI_3$ insoluble fraction, showed inotropic effect on isolated frog heart and inotropic effect is potenciated by n-butanol fractionation. To investigate the effect of Aconiti tuber butanol fraction on the mechanical and electrical properties of heart, change of active tension, excitability and refractory period of isolated rabbit atrium in the presence of butanol fraction were measured and the comparison with that of ouabain and quinidine was done. The observed results are as follows. 1. $5{\times}10^{-4}g/ml$ concentration of Aconiti tuber butanol fraction showed approximately same effect with therapeutic concentration of ouabain on the increment of contractile force, and the effect of $2{\times}10^{-3}g/ml$ was greater than that of $1{\times}10^{-5}g/ml$ of ouabain. 2. Acceleration of rate of contractile force increment in the presence of Aconiti tuber butanol fraction was greater than in ouabain, and the time to maximum tension was shorter in Aconiti tuber butanol fraction than in ouabain. 3. The excitability of isolated atrium was slightly increased at low concentration of Aconiti tuber butanol fraction, while decreased at higher concentration. 4. Aconiti tuber butanol fraction slightly prolonged refractory period of isolated right atrium at the concentration of $2{\times}10^{-3}g/ml$.

Combustion characteristics of a 1-butanol gel fuel were studied in atmospheric pressure condition. The butanol gel fuel was manufactured by adding hydroxypropyl-methyl cellulose (HPMC) as a gellant and the effect of the gellant concentration was observed. The combustion process of a single butanol gel droplet was divided into 3 stages including droplet heating, microexplosion, and gellant combustion. The flame was distorted compared to butanol + water mixture because of micro-explosion during the combustion. Increase of gellant concentration delayed the droplet ignition, but the combustion rate was improved due to the mass ejection during the micro-explosion.

The removal characteristics of ethyl acetate and 2-butanol were investigated in a bench-scale down-flow biofilter packed with Jeju scoria medium. Various inlet concentrations and gas flow rates were tested. The adaptation times of microorganisms to the change of the influent concentration of ethyl acetate and 2-butanol gas were found to be about 3 days. At the inlet concentration of 300 ppmv and empty bed contact time (EBCT) of 15 see, the removal efficiencies of the biofilter for ethyl acetate and 2-butanol were above $99.9\%$. The maximum removal capacity of the biofilter for ethyl acetate was $316-318\;g/m^3/h$ and that for 2-butanol was $245-251\;g/m^3/h$. Overall, the removal capacity of the biofilter for ethyl acetate was $50-70\;g/m^3/h$ larger than that for 2-butanol. During the operation of 65 days, the pressure drop through the biofilter column was maintained below $13\;mmH_{2}O/m$. Although the pH in the drain water decreased from 7.2 to 5.0, the pH drop did not affect the removal of the gases. From the above results, the biofilter using Jeju scoria as a packing material seemed to very effectively treat waste gases such as ethyl acetate and 2-butanol.

This study presents both experimental and numerical investigation of ignition characteristics of n-heptane and n-butanol mixture. The $O_2$ concentration was fixed to 9-10% to make high exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) rate condition. Experiments were performed using a rapid compression machine. In addition, a numerical study of the ignition delay time was performed using CHEMKIN codes to validate experimental results and predict chemical species after combustion process. The results showed that the ignition delay time increased with increasing n-butanol ratio and the reactivity decreased by low $O_2$ concentration.

In our previous study, we investigated Chenopodium album Linne (CAL) ethanol extract and its fractions on anti-gastritic actions using the HCl/ethanol and indomethacin induced gastric lesion model and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Based on the results, butanol fraction was most effective among fractions obtained from CAL. This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms of butanol fraction, and betaine as a constituent of the butanol fraction, on gastritis and anti-gastric cancer cell growth. First, we examined antioxidant properties using hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radical, and we found that butanol fraction and betaine may be good antioxidants. Second, cytotoxicity was assessed by measuring cell viability and 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylinodole dihydrochloride (DAPI) staining of human gastric cancer cells (AGS cells). We also examined the relationship between the cytotoxicity and intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ signaling mechanism. The butanol fraction demonstrated cell viability 71.49% at the concentration of 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ and increased intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration in a dose dependent manner. Finally, we observed the mucus content as a defensive factor and gastric secretion as an aggressive factor, and found that the mucus content noticeably increased when treated with butanol fraction and betaine and gastric secretion decreased when treated with betaine in vivo study. From these results, we suggest that CAL butanol fraction and betaine may have protective effects on gastritis.

Aconiti tuber butanol fraction shows positive inotropic effect on the isolated atrium of rabbit heart. To investigate the mechanism, the effect on microsomal ATPase activity of rabbit heart is observed. The microsomal fraction which contains the $Na^+$- and $K^+$-activated ATPase in the presence of $Mg^{++}$ is isolated from the left ventricle of rabbit heart. The microsomal ATPase activity is maximally stimulated at $Na^+$ and $K^+$ concentration of 100 mM and 10 mM respectively. Microsomal $Na^+-K^+$-activated ATPase is inhibited by ouabain and Aconiti tuber butanol fraction. Ouabain and Aconiti tuber butanol fraction depress $Na^+$-stimulation on microsomal ATPase activity, and the inhibitory effects are not completely reversed at $Na^+$ concentration of 300 mM. Also, $K^+$-stimulation on microsomal ATPase activity is inhibited by ouabin and Aconiti tuber butanol fraction and the inhibitions are not compeletely reversed at $K^+$ concentration of 30 mM. It is, therefore, suggested that the inhibitory effect of Aconiti tuber butanol fraction on the microsomal ATPase activity may contribute to leading to the positive inotropic effect.

투과증발법은 투과 측의 진공 유지에 필요한 전력만을 소비하기 때문에 에너지 저감 기술이며, 공비증류와 같이 제 3의 보조 화학 물질을 사용하지 않기 때문에 환경 친화 기술로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 수열 합성을 통해 Silicalite-1을 합성하고 이를 PDMS 고분자에 적절한 양을 첨가하여 PDMS-zeolite 복합막을 제조하였다. 제조한 분리막을 이용하여 n-부탄올 수용액으로부터 n-부탄올을 분리하였다. 공급 수용액의 농도 변화 및 첨가한 제올라이트의 양 변화에 따른 투과증발 특성을 관찰하였다. 부탄올 농도가 매우 낮은 0.001 몰분율이 포함된 1,000 $cm^3$ 수용액을 용기로 공급하였다. 투과측의 압력을 약 0.2~0.3 torr로 유지하였다. n-부탄올의 투과플럭스는 공급된 n-부탄올의 농도가 0.015 몰분율인 실험조건에서 복합막 내의 Silicalite-1의 첨가량이 0 wt%에서 10 wt%로 증가함에 따라 14.5에서 186.3 g/$m^2$/hr로 크게 증가하였다. 이는 제올라이트 입자가 지닌 미세공 구조와 강력한 소수성으로 인하여 분리막의 분자 선택성이 4.8에서 11.8로 상당히 개선되었음을 의미한다. 이러한 결과로 투과된 투과물 내의 n-부탄올의 농도가 0.07 몰분율에서 0.15 몰분율로 상당히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이렇게 합성된 복합막을 n-부탄올 농도가 0.015 몰분율 이하의 상당히 낮은 발효액으로부터 분리 회수하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Results from experiments and mathematical modeling were compared for pervaporative butanol fermentation. The developed model includes expressions to predict characteristics of butanol fermentation, such as, microbial growth, solvent (butanol, acetone, and ethanol) formation and organic acid (acetate and butyrate) production. Butanol diffusivity was 1.15${\times}$10(sup)-7 ㎡/hr at 1.5 L/min-tubing of air flow rate using a pervaporative module. The model correlated well with experimental results (cell growth, glucose consumption and concentrations of solvents and organic acids) for batch fermentation with and without pervaporation. Larger surface area and thinner module tubing resulted in an increased glucose consumption and a decreased residual butanol concentration. Optimum membrane area and thickness were 0.34 ㎡ and 120 $\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively.
