The chemical behavior and properties on the redox state of environmental pollutant has been investigated by electrochemical methods. We carried out to measure the variations in the redox reaction of differential pulse polarogram and cyclic voltammogram. The results observed the influences on redox potential and current of various factors with temperature and pH. These were established factors as the effect of the redox reaction. It can be clearly recognized that the electrode reaction are from qusi-reversible to irreversible processes. Also, it was mixing with reaction current controlled. The bits-phenol A in the waste water was made to compound with cobalt ion and it take away from the separation into compound. The $Co(BPA)_2$ compound was not found to be dissociation in waste water. However, this compound is avery unstable(K=1.02) and for a while, it was to be a dissociation. Therefore, we believed that it was likely to a toxic substance.

We investigated that the effect of $CaCO_3$ based compound on machinability of two types of PM steels. One is a copper steel which is selected as a general PM steel, and the other is a diffusion alloyed steel selected as a high strength PM steel. It is found that $CaCO_3$ based compound addition improves machinability in drilling of both of the PM steels. Although the compound addition degrades the mechanical properties of PM steels, it is considered that decrease of the properties can be compensated by increasing density.

Ghana산 cacao bean으로부터 acetone으로 추출하고 Sephadex LH-20, MCI-gel CHP-20, Bondapak $C_{18}$ 및 Fuji gel ODS $G_3$, chromatography 등을 이용하여 7종의 polyphenol 화합물(compound 1 - compound 7)을 분리 정제하였고, 이들 화합물의 화학구조를 $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$, IR 및 MS를 사용하여 검색하였고 아울러 angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) 저해효과를 조사 검토하였다. 분리정제한 7종의 polyphenol 화합물의 구조를 분석한 결과, compound 1: [(+)-catechin], compound 2: [(-)-epicatechin], compound 3: [procyanidin B-1, (-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)$-(+)-catechin], compound 4 : [procyanidin B-2, (-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)$-(-)-epicatechin], compound 5: [procyanidin B-7, (-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}6)$-(+)-catechin], compound 6 : (procyanidin B-2,3,3'-O-digallate) 및 compound 7: [cinnamtannin A-2, (-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)$-(-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)$-(-)-epicatechin-$(4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8)$-(-)-epicatechin]임을 동정하였다. ACE의 저해효과는 procyanidin B-2,3,3'-O-digallate (compound 6)가 $100\;{\um}M$에서 94.6%로 매우 우수하였으며, (+)-catechin (compound 1), (-)-epicate -chin (compound 2), procyanidin B류 (compound 3, 4, 5) 및 cinnamtannin A-2 (compound 7)도 각각 67.9%, 61.9%, 88.6%, 82.5%, 72.2% 및 82.3%의 비교적 우수한 저해효과가 있었다. 아울러 결합방식에서는 $4{\beta}{\rightarrow}6$보다 $4{\beta}{\rightarrow}8$의 결합방식이, 그리고 procyanidin 류에서는 gallate를 갖는 물질이 이를 함유하지 많은 물질보다 더욱 높은 ACE의 저해효과를 나타내었으며, 또한 hydroxyl 기가 많을수록 효소 저해효과도 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 chocolate의 주원료인 cacao bean의 polyphenol 성분 또한 녹차 등에서 볼 수 있는 생리활성효과에 손색없는 것으로 판단되고, 이러한 기능성에 기초하여 chocolate, 음료 등의 식품이나 의약품의 기능성 소재로서의 산업적 응용 가능성이 높은 것으로 사료된다.

The Cu(In,Ga)Se2(CIGS) thin film solar cells have been achieved until almost 20% efficiency by NREL. These solar cells include chemically deposited CdS as buffer layer between CIGS absorber layer and ZnO window layer. Although CIGS solar cells with CdS buffer layer show excellent performance, many groups made hard efforts to overcome its disadvantages in terms of high absorption of short wavelength, Cd hazardous element. Among Cd-free candidate materials, the CIGS thin film solar cells with Zn compound buffer layer seem to be promising with 15.2%(module by showa shell K.K.), 18.6%(small area by NREL). However, few groups were successful to report high-efficiency CIGS solar cells with Zn compound buffer layer, compared to be known how to fabricate these solar cells. Each group's chemical bah deposition (CBD) condition is seriously different. It may mean that it is not fully understood to grow high quality Zn compound thin film on the CIGS using CBD. In this study, we focused to clarify growth mechanism of chemically deposited Zn compound thin film on the CIGS, especially. Additionally, we tried to characterize junction properties with unfavorable issues, that is, slow growth rate, imperfect film coverage and minimize these issues. Early works reported that film deposition rate increased with reagent concentration and film covered whole rough CIGS surface. But they did not mention well how film growth of zinc compound evolves homogeneously or heterogeneously and what kinds of defects exist within film that can cause low solar performance. We observed sufficient correlation between growth quality and concentration of NH3 as complex agent. When NH3 concentration increased, thickness of zinc compound increased with dominant heterogeneous growth for high quality film. But the large amounts of NH3 in the solution made many particles of zinc hydroxide due to hydroxide ions. The zinc hydroxides bonded weakly to the CIGS surface have been removed at rinsing after CBD.

Telomerase activation is detected in most cancerous cells; hence, telomerase is a highly selective target for cancer therapy, which plays an important role in the apoptotic process. We have previously reported that the ginseng saponin metabolite, Compound K (20-O-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxadiol, IH901), inhibits cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the $G_1$ phase. The present study investigated the regulation of telomerase activity in Compound K treated U937 cells. Compound K treatment caused a reduction in telomerase activity and down-regulated the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene, resulting in the decreased expressions of its protein, and of the c-Myc and Spl proteins (transcription factors of hTERT). These results indicate that the anticancer activity of Compound K could be mediated by inhibition of the telomerase activity.

In the course of our screening for neuroprotective agents, a new compound (1) was isolated together with a known compound, caruilignan C (2), from the fruiting body of Daldinia concentrica. Their structures were determined on the basis of various spectral studies. Both compounds exhibited neuroprotective effect against iron-induced neurodegeneration in a primary culture of mouse cortical neurons.

Ginsenosides are the principal components responsible for the pharmacological and biological activities of ginseng. Ginsenoside Rd was transformed into compound K using cell-free extracts of food microorganisms, with Lactobacillus pentosus DC101 isolated from kimchi (traditional Korean fermented food) used for this conversion. The optimum time for the conversion was about 72 h at a constant pH of 7.0 and an optimum temperature of about $30^{\circ}C$. The transformation products were identified by thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography, and their structures were assigned using nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. Generally, ginsenoside Rd was converted into ginsenoside F2 by 36 h post-reaction. Consequently, over 97% of ginsenoside Rd was decomposed and converted into compound K by 72 h post-reaction. The bioconversion pathway to produce compound K is as follows: ginsenoside Rd$\rightarrow$ginsenoside F2$\rightarrow$compound K.
