Propolis obtained from honeybee hives has been used in oriental folk medicine as an anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, or immunomodulatory agent. To prepare granule depending on operational parameters, such as glucose content to total sugar (X$_1$, 0~100%), ethanol concentration (X$_2$, 20~100%) and sprayed ethanol solution content (X$_3$, 6~10%) using propolis, response surface methodology was applied to monitor the changes in yield, fragmentation rate by shaking and organoleptic properties. Yield showed high with decreasing sprayed ethanol solution content and fragmentation rate by shaking decreased with increasing sprayed ethanol solution content. The organoleptic color, flavor, taste, mouth-feel and overall palatability were dependent on the glucose content to total sugar, ethanol concentration and sprayed ethanol solution content. Overall palatability was maximized in glucose content to total sugar 47.94%, ethanol concentration 56.45% and sprayed ethanol solution content 8.04% .

The glass electrode was empirically calibrated in dioxane-and ethanol-water mixed solvents, by means of which the pH-meter reading could be converted to stoichiometric hydrogen ion concentration. By the potentiometric titration method, the thermodynamic dissociation constants of hydrogen cupferrate (HCup) with variations of ionic concentration in aqueous solution were determined, and by the extrapolation of the constants the new thermodynamic $pK_a$ value, 3.980${\pm}$0.006, at zero ional concentration was obtained. The thermodynamic dissociation constants of HCup in dioxane-and ethanol-water solution were also potentiometrically determined with the changes in composition of organic solvents at 0.01 and 0.05 of the ionic strength(${mu}$) and 25 $^{\circ}C$. The empirical formula of the constants with mole fraction(n) of the organic solvent are as follow: Dioxane-water solution. $pK_a$= 12.96n + 4.10 at ${\mu}$ = 0.01, n = 0.0228∼0.171 $pK_a$= 12.05n + 4.23 at ${\mu}$ = 0.05, n= 0.0228∼0.171 Ethanol-water solution, $pK_a$= 4.0ln + 4.26 at ${\mu}$= 0.01, n= 0.0395∼0.262 $pK_a$= 3.83n + 4.34 at ${\mu}$= 0.05, n= 0.0395∼0.262

This study was performed to validate the procedure of transarterial embolization of the renal artery (TAE-RA) and sclerotherapy of renal pelvis using iohexol-ethanol solution in dogs with unilateral experimental hydronephrosis. Experimental hydronephrosis was induced by unilateral ureter ligation for 20 days in five Beagle dogs. Renal artery embolization with iohexol-ethanol solution was performed using selective catheterization technique in the hydronephrotic kidney and sclerotherapy was done by injection of the iohexol-ethanol solution through percutaneously placed pig-tail catheter. EKG, $SpO_2$ body temperature, pulse, and respiratory rate were within normal ranges during procedures. Average pure ethanol dose for renal artery embolization was $1.1\pm0.3ml/kg$. Renal artery embolization was confirmed by the detection of no blood flow signal at the interlobar and arcuate artery using color Doppler ultrasonography. There were no dogs expired after TAE-RA and sclerotherapy and no side effects associated with regurgitation of iohexol-ethanol solution. The value of BUN, creatinine, ALT, AST, Ca, P in five dogs were within normal range during the experiment period. Ultrasonographically, the mean longitudinal and transverse length and the depth of the embolized kidney significantly decreased at 28 days after TAE-RA. We may conclude that TAE-RA and sclerotherapy with iohexol-ethanol solution is an effective methods for the treatment of unilateral hydronephrosis in dogs.

This paper is to study on the change of volume and temperature of the solution which mixed water with ethanol. And its main purpose is to examine closely how the volume changes, and to find the method to maximize the change of the volume. The summaries for results of the study are; First, we were known that water and ethanol are homogeneously mixed. But two solvents does not mix homogeneously by different specific gravity at early stages. Second, we could see that the volume changed large at homogeneous mixed water with ethanol by stirrer, the change of volume is the largest value when water mixed with ethanol in the ratio of one to one. Third, when water mixed with ethanol in the ratio of one to one, the change of temperature is very large by activated hydrogen bond. We conclude that it is the best result when ratio of water and ethanol is one to one and the solution is well mixed.

With a view to utilizing effectively fish skin wastes from marine manufactory, a gelatin solution extracted from yellowfin sole skin was fractionated by precipitation with ethanol, and then the functional and physico-chemical properties for the fractionated gelatin were determined. Ethanol was added up to 50% of ethanol content to a gelatin solution extracted from yellowfin sole skin, then the mixture was left to stand at $0^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours. Finally, the precipitates were dried by hot-air ($40^{\circ}C$). The gel strength and melting point of a 10% gel of gelatin prepared from yellowfin sole skin by precipitation with ethanol has 322.4g and $23.3^{\circ}C$, respectively. The physico-chemical properties of the ethanol treated fish skin gelatin were superior to those of fish skin gelatin prepared without ethanol treatment. Besides, the functional properties of the ethanol treated gelatin were lower in solubility and higher in water holding capacity, oil binding capacity, emulsifying activity, emulsifying stability, foam expansion and foam stability than those of pork skin gelatin sold on market as well as gelatin prepared without ethanol treatment. It may be concluded, from these results, that the fish skin gelatin prepared by precipitation with ethanol can be effectively utilized as a human food by improving the functional properties.

It has been known that ethanol stimulates the secretion of gastric acid regardless of its route of administration. Recently, however, some studies have challenged this view and claimed that ethanol inhibits the gastric acid secretion. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of ethanol on the gastric acid secretion in anesthetized rat in respect to the route of administration and the concentration of alcohol. Normal saline (pH adjusted to 6.0) was used as standard perfusion solution and ethanol was mixed as 0.8, 1.7, 5, 10 and 20%. Four ml of perfusion fluid was given into stomach via gastric tube and drained from duodenal tube every 5 min. Acid secretion was measured by back titration to pH 6.0 with N/20 NaOH and expressed as ${\mu}Eq/5$ min. Low concentration of ethanol up to 1.7% in perfusion solution caused little changes in acid secretion, but moderate concentration such as perfusion of 5% or 10% ethanol solution inhibited both the basal and histamine-induced gastric secretion. Moreover, loss of perfused acid was seen by 20% ethanol, which means back diffusion of hydrogen ions into the gastric mucosa. However, intravenous administration of ethanol, maintained at the level of 0.1% alcohol in blood, caused significant stimulation of gastric acid. We, therefore, conclude that in anesthetized rat ethanol has dual effects on acid secretion, i.e., inhibiting and enhancing by oral and intravenous administration, respectively, but further investigation is necessary to clarify these effects.

In the case of immobilizing of glucose oxidase in organic polymer using electrosynthesis, the glucose oxidase obstructs charge transfer and mass transport during the film growth. This may lead to short chained polymer and/or make charge-coupling weak between the glucose oxidase and the backbone of the polymer. That is mainly due to insulating property and net chain of the glucose oxidase. Since being the case, it is useless to increase in amount of glucose oxidase more than reasonable in the synthetic solution. We establish qualitatively that amount of immobilization can be improved by adding a little ethanol in the synthetic solution. As ethanol was added by 0.1 rnol dm" in the synthetic solution, Michaelis-Menten constants of the resulting enzyme electrode decreased from 30.7 mmol $dm^{-3}$ to about 2 mmol $dm^{-3}$. That suggests increase in affinity of the enzyme electrode for glucose and in amount of the immobilized enzyme.zyme.

An investigation on the synthesis of aluminum tartrate, one of the aluminum organic compounds, has been performed using aluminum chloride solution as a raw material. For this aim, the effect of the ratio of ethanol/Al solution and pH on the synthesis of aluminum tartrate has been examined and aluminum tartrate synthesized has also been characterized in terms of the chemical composition, X-ray diffraction pattern, particle size distribution, and SEM analysis. As a result, the synthesis more than 97% could be obtained under the conditions of pH more than 3.0 at the ratio of ethanol/Al solution of 3.0. From the chemical analysis of aluminum tartrate synthesized in this work, the content of $NH_4$, Al and C was found to be 9.10, 4.83 and 25.8%, respectively. In addition, aluminum tartrate synthesized from the aluminum chloride solution was found to be $(NH_4)_3Al(C_4H_4O_6)_3$.
