The layer charge densities and interlayer C. E. C(cation exchange capacity) of ten mica-type aluminosilicates from Yong-il Pohang-prefacture were determined by n-alkylammonium method which is based on the mo-nolayer-doubelelayer structural transition of ni-alkylammonium ion in interlayer space of the layered silcates. The upper and lower limits of layer charge and interlyer C, E, C estimated were about 0.25~0.36 eq/(Si, $Al)_4$ O10 and 69~99meq/100g, respectively.

Ion channels are important targets of anthelmintic agents. In this study, we identified 3 types of ion channels in Ascaris suum tissue incorporated into planar lipid bilayers using an electrophysiological technique. The most frequent channel was a large-conductance cation channel (209 pS), which accounted for 64.5% of channels incorporated (n=60). Its open-state probability (P_o) was ~0.3 in the voltage range of -60~+60 mV. A substate was observed at 55% of the main-state. The permeability ratio of Cl^- to K⁺ (P_Cl/P_K) was ~0.5 and P_Na/P_K was 0.81 in both states. Another type of cation channel was recorded in 7.5% of channels incorporated (n=7) and discriminated from the large-conductance cation channel by its smaller conductance (55.3 pS). Its Po was low at all voltages tested (~0.1). The third type was an anion channel recorded in 27.9% of channels incorporated (n=26). Its conductance was 39.0 pS and P_Cl/P_K was 8.6±0.8. P_o was ~1.0 at all tested potentials. In summary, we identified 2 types of cation and 1 type of anion channels in Ascaris suum. Gating of these channels did not much vary with voltage and their ionic selectivity is rather low. Their molecular nature, functions, and potentials as anthelmintic drug targets remain to be studied further.

We prepared porous cation exchange membrane using polystyrene such as, EPS (expanded polystyrene), SAN (styrene acrylonitrile copolymer) and HIPS (high impact polystyrene). These three kind of polystyrene were sulfonated by acetyl sulfate to make sulfonated porous cation exchange membrane such as, SEPS (sulfonated expanded polystyrene), SSAN (sulfonated styrene acrylonitrile copolymer)and SHIPS (sulfonated high impact polystyrene). SEM was employed to validate porous structure of membrane, and IR spectroscopy was used to validate sulfonation rate of ion exchange membrane. As a results, ion exchange capacity was increased with an amount of sulfuric acid in reactants and cation exchange membrane showed the selectivity to a cation and showed the exclusivity to an anion.

With the intention of preparing cation exchangers from the domestic coals, and using these for softening hard water and some other purposes, seven kinds of raw coal were tested and the results are as follows. 1) The following conditions of preparation were given the good results. Reaction time 5 hours Reaction temperature $95^{\circ}$ Concentration of sulfuric acid 98% Amount of sulfuric acid 10 times to the sample (as weight) 2) The raw coals which is rich in fixed carbon and have the fuel ratio 0.8 to 1.0 were suitable, and Kampo lignite has shown the best results. 3) The cation exchangers from coals were able to exchange the cation, both hydrogen and sodium type dynamically and statically, like the synthetic ion exchange resin. The exchange capacities were as follows. Total capacity 1.60 meq/g. Breakthrough capacity 1.30 meq/g. Usable breakthrough capacity 1.20 meq/g National Central Research laboratory

Silver particles were synthesized by chemical reduction with ionic liquids. Structure of silver particles were significantly affected by the cation parts of the ionic liquids. With increasing the length of the cation part, the smaller silver particles were formed regardless of the anion type. This is mainly attributed to the different stability of the ionic liquid structure formed by physical bond between cation parts. Among seven ionic liquids, [Omim][$PF_6$] was the most effective for synthesizing silver particles.

To reveal the relationship between pond type and chemical water characteristics and wetland flora, we investigated 8 small irrigation ponds in CCZ, which represent 4 types of irrigation ponds. Cation and anion concentrations in water were low at spring type ponds and cation or anion concentrations were high at others. Especially, Kyeongeuisun pond, which is water exchanging type, had high cation and anion concentrations. This indicates that water source of this ponds is surface water. CCA showed that chemical water characteristics and wetland flora were reflected in pond types. However, water exchanging type ponds were not clustered in a group, which comes from the difference in water source and we suggest that water source should be an additional criteria to devide pond type of water exchanging.

Experiments from several groups Including ours have demonstrated that $Ca^{2+}$ can enhance the inactivation of N-type calcium channels. However, it is not clear if this effect can be ascribed to a 'classic' $Ca^{2+}$-dependent inactivation (CDI) mechanism. One method that has been used to demonstrate CDI of L-type calcium channels is to alter the intracellular and extracellular concentration of $Ca^{2+}$. In this paper we replaced the external divalent cation to monovalent ion ($MA^+$) to test CDI. In the previous paper, we could separate fast (${\tau}{\sim}150ms$) and slow (${\tau}{\sim}2,500ms$) components of inactivation in both $Ba^{2+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$ using 5-sec voltage step. Lowering the external divalent cation concentration to zero abolished fast inactivation with relatively little effect on slow inactivation. Slow inactivation ${\tau}$ correspond very well with provided the $MA^+$ data is shifted 10 mV hyperpolarized and slow inactivation ${\tau}$ decreases with depolarization voltage in both $MA^+\;and\;Ba^{2+}$, which consistent with a classical voltage dependent inactivation (VDI) mechanism. These results combined with those of our previous paper lead us to hypothesize that external divalent cations are required to produce fast N-channel inactivation and this divalent cation-dependent inactivation is a different mechanism from classic CDI or VDI.

Catalytic combustion of benzene over various metal cation-exchanged zeolites has been investigated. Y(4.8)-type zeolite showed the highest activity among the used zeolites and Cu/Y(4.8) catalyst also showed the highest activity among metal cation/ Y(4.8) zeolites. The catalytic activity increased according to the amount of adsorbed oxygen acquired from O₂ TPD results. The catalytic activity also increased with an increase of Cu cation concentration on Cu/Y(4.8) catalysts. The conversion of benzene on the combustion reaction depended on not benzene concentration but the oxygen concentration. In addition, the introduction of water into reactants decreased the catalytic activity.

This study explored a direct SET-photochemical strategy to construct a new family of thioene conjugated-naphthalamide fluorophore based lariat-crown ethers which show strong binding properties towards heavy metal ions. Irradiations of designed nitrogen branched (trimethylsilyl)methylthio-terminated polyethylenoxy-tethered naphthalimides in acidic methanol solutions have led to highly efficient photocyclization reactions to generate naphthalamide based lariat type thiadiazacrown ethers directly in chemo- and regio-selective manners which undergo very facile secondary dehydration reactions during separation processes to produce their corresponding amidoenethio ether cyclic products tethered with electron donating diethyleneoxy- and diethyenethio-side arm chains. Fluorescence and metal cation binding properties of the lariat type enamidothio products were examined. The photocyclized amidoenethio products, thioene conjugated naphthalamide fluorophore containing lariat-thiadiazacrowns exhibited strong fluorescence emissions in region of 330-450 nm along with intramolecular exciplex emissions in region of 450-560 nm with their maxima at 508 nm. Divalent cation $Hg^{2+}$ and $Pb^{2+}$ showed strong binding to sulfur atom(s) in side arm chain and atoms in enethiadiazacrown ether rings which led to significant enhancement of fluorescence from its chromophore singlet excited state and concomitant quenching of exciplex emission. The dual fluorescence emission responses towards divalent cations might provide a new guide for design and development of fluorescence sensors for detecting those metals.
