In a series of investigation of dialysis conditions at which the dialysis coefficient can be expressed as a constant, accumulation limits of the diffusing particles in the outer solution where the accumulation effect to the dialysis may be negligible were studied for various volume size of the outer solution. Dependence of the dialysis coefficient on the dialyzing temperature was also studied.

DNA samples extracted from Japanese cypress leaf tissues contain isopropyl alcohol-precipitable, high molecular weight compounds, which interfere ELISA for cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD). Removal of the compounds is achieved by DEAE ion-exchange column chromatography and improves the ELISA responses of the DNA. When extracting DNA repeatedly from the same leaf tissues, the DNA samples show CPD responses which increase with the order in sequential extraction, and hence for a reliable detennination of DNA lesion a thorough extraction of DNA is required. Clearing these two problems it was demonstrated that CPD level was slightly higher in the leaves of trees growing under full sunlight than in those growing under UBV -cut sunlight.

Wool yarns were treated in dimethylformamide solutions containing various concentrations of three dibasic acid anhydrides : succinic, itaconic, and phthalic anhydrides in various conditions. The structural aspects of these dibasic acid anhydrides are different : the succinic, itaconic, and phthalic acid anhydrides have saturated aliphatic etylene, unsaturated aliphatic vinyl and aromatic phenyl groups, respectively. The reaction mechanism of the acylation of wool keratin and some resction conditions were invastigated. And the results are as follows. 1. The N-acylation and formation of free carboxyl group were dominant rather than the O-acylation cross-linked on the side chain of polypeptide. The acylation of wool keratin is easier than that of silk fibroin. 2. The higher molecular weight, steric hinderance and resonance caused lower acylating reactivity. By the determination of acyl contents for acylated keratin, it was rerealed that the degree of acylation was succinic acid anhydride > itaconic acid anhhydride > phthalic acid anhydride.

The verification of genuine sesame oil can be examined by determination of the ratio of fatty acid. Fatty acids were extracted from the saponifiable substance of sesame oils. Fatty acids were methylated with the 14% boron trifluoride methanol solution and injected into a gas chromatograph with Unisole 3000 column and finally determined the molecular weight by mass spectrometry. The fatty acids in laboratory prepared sesame oils were composed mainly of oleic acid 36.7-42.8% and linoleic acid 39.0-46.6%, including palmitic acid 7.9-9.l%, stearic acid 4.1-5.6%, linoleic acid 0.1-3.0%, arachidic acid 0.5-1.0% and eicosenoic acid 0.1-0.5%. The above results allow the estimation of genuine sesame oil, mixed with rape seed oil, soybean oil, perilla oil, etc. In 53 samples, 14 samples were estimated as genuine and it was found that erucic acid was contained in 31 samples, linoeic acid was highly contained in 14, high quantity of linolenic acid was in 7 and palmitic and oleic acid were highly involved in 3.

In this study, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was used to estimate the degree of rice polishing. As-threshed rice seeds were dehusked and polished for different times, and the resulting grains were analyzed using LIBS. Various atomic, ionic, and molecular emissions were identified in the LIBS spectra. Their correlation with the amount of polished-off matter was investigated. Na I and Rb I emission line intensities showed linear sensitivity in the widest range of polished-off-matter amount. Thus, univariate models based on those lines were developed to predict the weight percent of polished-off matter and showed 3-5 % accuracy performances. Partial least squares-regression (PLS-R) was also applied to develop a multivariate model using Si I, Mg I, Ca I, Na I, K I, and Rb I emission lines. It outperformed the univariate models in prediction accuracy (2 %). Our results suggest that LIBS can be a reliable tool for authenticating the degree of rice polishing, which is closed related to nutrition, shelf life, appearance, and commercial value of rice products.

The molecular weight of the purified nucleoside oxidase estimated by gel filtration column chromatography was 480,000 and the enzyme protein was composed of four nonidentical subunits (81,000, 69,000, 32,000 and 16,000). On the basis of the visible absorption spectra and the enzymatic determination of the purified enzyme, the enzyme was supposed as a hemoprotein and also a flavoprotein containing 3 moles of FAD per I mole of enzyme. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was pH 5.1. Addition of metal salts such as 1 mM SnCl$_{2}$ and PbCl$_{2}$ into an enzyme reaction solution inhibited the enzyme activity by 94 and 90%, respectively. The enzyme activity was also lost significantly by hemoenzyme inhibitors such as NaCN and NaN$_{3}$ and flavoenzyme inhibitor, acriflavine and quinacrine. The maximal nucleoside oxidase activity was observed at pH 7.0 and 55$\circ$C. The nucleoside oxidase was relatively stable in the range of pH 5.5-9.0 and below 55$\circ$C.

Alliin was isolated from deep-frozen garlic bulbs and purified into crystalline form. Purity of isolated alliin was assured by melting point determination and thin-layer chromatography. Sulfoxide bond and functional groups of amino acid were confirmed with IR spectrum, and vinyl bond with NMR spectrum. Molecular weight, allyl and other bonds were confirmed with MS spectrum.

나뭇잎으로부터 발생되는 저분자량 유기산을 이온크로마토그래피를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이 방법은 자연상태의 나뭇잎 (needle litter)을 유기용매의 추출 없이 그대로 이용할 수 있어서 사용하기에 편리하다. 본 논문에서는 이온 크로마토그래피의 사용방법과 침엽수잎(Pacific Silver Fir)의 부후정도에 따른 유기산의 종류와 농도의 변이를 간략하게 소개한다. 초기의 침엽수잎 여과액으로부터는 $C_2$에서 $C_4$까지의 아세트산(acetic acid), 프로피온산(propionic acid), 옥살산(oxalic acid) 그리고 포름산(formic acid) 등이 주종을 이루지만 부후정도가 커짐에 따라 방향핵을 가진 방향핵 유기산(aromatic organic acid)이 발생한다.

The dried fruit-body of Daedaleopsis tricolor was extracted by the petroleum ether. The extracts were purified by liquid-liquid extraction, column chromatography, and recrystallization. The purified compound was a colorless orthorhombic crystal form. Its melting point, molecular weight and molar extinction coefficient $(\varepsilon)$ were estimated $168-170^{\circ}C$, 424 and 3,935 at 208 nm, respectively. Its structure was elucidated to be 20(29)-lupen-3-one by UV-Vis, FT-IR, NMR and X-ray crystallographic analysis. It showed antifungal activities against Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Microsporum gypseum, and antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas pyocyanea, Bacillus subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus. In addition, this compound showed an antioxidative activity on lipid-peroxidation by 6.4%.

This paper reports the improvements of the dialysis apparatus and operations since there are some problems to be improved in the dialysis method which is applied to determine the ionic and molecular weight of dissolved particles. The hook gauge was utilized in order to control the surface level of the dialysing solution and the solvent to be equal with the precision of 0.02 mm to minimize the osmotic and filtration effects. An accurate agitation velocity for both solutions was maintained and so was the same temperature for both solutions with ${\pm}0.01^{\circ}C$ precision. The dialysis membrane was fixed uniformly and flatly on one end of the dialysis cylinder by using a newly developed ring. The volume change of the dialysing solution during the dialysis was reduced to the range of -1.62 ~ +0.92%. Optimum duration of dialysis was searched from the relation between the osmotic and filtration effect and the pore size of the membrane.
