Colorants were prepared by extraction of natural indigo which was harvested just in the blooming season(in the late of July). 100 g of fresh leaves soaking in 1 ιwater was kept at 3$0^{\circ}C$, 30 hours. A solution of 3g/l calcium hydroxide was added into it to precipitate dye substance and it was freezing-dried into powder form. The fermentation and dyeing conditions were investigated. The results obtained are summarized as follows; K/S value of dyed silk fabrics of fermentation conditions was higher at 95$^{\circ}C$ for 20 min. than at 4$0^{\circ}C$ for 20 hours. Furthermore, K/S value of dyed silk fabric was raised by the addition of 5g/l of glucose and 5g/l of NaOH. K/S value of dyed silk fabric was raised by the addition of 5g/l of glucose and 5g/l of NaOH. K/S value increased as extending of dyeing time when dyed till 2 hours at 3$0^{\circ}C$. K/S value decreased in order of 3$0^{\circ}C$, 4$0^{\circ}C$ and 5$0^{\circ}C$, at the various dyeing temperatures and dyeing concentrations, and colour fastness ranged from 4 to 5 grade in terms of washing, perspiration and light fastness.

The possibility of utilizing Porphyra yezoensis, Undaria pinnatifida and Laminaria religionsa into algae-tea having biological functionality was investigated by analysis of functional component, experimentation for low viscosity and various pretreatments. In water soluble fraction of powdered algae extracted for 3 minutes with 30 times of hot wate, major functinal components were composed of 1.53% porphyran and 170.04mg% taurine in P. yezoensis, 1.09% fucoidan and 1.18% sodium sodium alginate in U. pinnatifida, and 1.28% fucoidan, 1.99% soidum laginate and 371.25mg% iodine in L.religiosa, on dry basis. For lowering viscosity and masking off-flavor in each water soluble fraction, it was desirable that P. yezoensis was washed for 12 hours in sea water and 30 mimutes in fresh water, dried at 3 to 5$^{\circ}C$, powdered to size of 30 mesh nd then roasted for 3 minutes at 12$0^{\circ}C$, and that both U. pinnatifida and L. religiosa were washed, semidried to 40~50% moisture content, heated for 40 minutes at 12$0^{\circ}C$ by autoclave, dried, powdered to size of 30 mesh and then roasted for 5 minutes at 11$0^{\circ}C$.

Campylobacter jejuni was studied for its disinfection by heat-and cold-treatment and UV-irradiation. When C. jejuni was treated by heat, no viable cell was found after 10 min treatment at $55^{\circ}C$, whereas small fraction of cell population was survived after 60 min treatment at $45^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$. When they were treated by cold temperature for 30 days, no cell was survived at -$23^{\circ}C$ but about 4 log of the cells were survived at both temperature of $4^{\circ}C$ and -$40^{\circ}C$. When the organisms were UV-irradiated, thier survival rates were proportionally varied to the distance of irradiation. The scanning electron microscopic studies of C. jejuni cells treated by the disinfecting agents revealed that shapes of thecells were deformed from spiral rod into spherical form. The heat-treated cells showed rough and damaged surface on the scanning electron micrographs. In the heat-treated cells, some proteins of high molecular weight appeared to become accumulated in the electrophoretic analysis. The DNAs extracted from the cells treated with the physical agents showed some differences in agarose gel electrophoresis, comparing those of normal cells.

Polyphenoloxidase (PPO) was extracted from Solanum tuberosum Jasim by various chromatographic methods and was subsequently purified and characterized. PPO was purified upto 78-fold from the crude extract. SDS-PAGE profile of the enzyme showed a major subunit of PPO with molecular weight of 40 kDa. The optimum pH and temperature for the maximum activity of PPO was 6.5 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was found to be quite stable between 10 and $40^{\circ}C$, whereas it was almost inactivated at $70^{\circ}C$ when incubated for 30 min. Substrate specificity study indicated that catechol was the most suitable substrate for PPO isolated from purple-fleshed potato with a $K_m$ value of 21.1 mM. The most effective inhibitor was ascorbic acid, followed by L-cysteine, citric acid, EDTA, and boric acid. Studies on the effect of metal ion on PPO activity showed that magnesium and copper were inhibitory, while iron and zinc ions increased the activity of PPO.

This study was carried out to determine the proximate composition, amino acids and fatty acids contents and changes of physicochemical characteristics of each oil extracted from Spanish and Virginia type peanuts grown in Korea roasted at 110, 120, 130 and 14$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 minutes. 1. The moisture contents of raw Spanish and Virginia type peanuts were 6.5~6.8% respectively. The crude ash and reduced sugar contents of raw Spanish and Virginia type peanuts were 2.3% and 16.5% and the crude protein content was 27.0% in Spanish type peanuts and was aproximately 1% higher than in Virginia type peanut. The protein content was 25.7%~26.7% in Virginia type peanut roasted at 110, 120, 130 and 14$0^{\circ}C$. The crude fat content of Virginia type peanut was 46.0% which was aproximately 1% higher than that of Spanish type. But four kinds of oils content were 51.3%~51.8% in Spanish type peanut roasted at 110, 120, 130 and 14$0^{\circ}C$, which was about 2% higher than those of Virginia type. 2. Amino acids existed in peanut were glutamie acid, arginine, aspartic acid, leucine, glycine, phenylalanine, proline-lysine, tyrosine, valine and isoleucine, etc mainly. But methionine and threonine contents were very low. The content of glutamic acid was the highest in 71.6-81.7mg among amino acids. Glutamic acid content of Virginia type peanut was about 12% higher than that of Spanish type peanut. Total amino acid content was 441.8mg/g in Virginia type peanut and that was 16% higher than that of Spanish type peanut. The lysine content of Spanish and Virginia type peanuts roasted at 14$0^{\circ}C$ were 24% and 13%, these were lower than those of peanuts roasted at 11$0^{\circ}C$. 3. Main fatty acids of raw Spanish and Virginia type peanut oils were oleic(40.99-46.58%), linoleic(33.21-38.82%) and palmitic acid(9.72-11.58). Linoleic acid content of raw Virginia type peanuts was 5.6% higher than that of raw Spanish type peanut. And the oleic acid content of Spanish and Virginia type peanuts roasted at 11$0^{\circ}C$, 12$0^{\circ}C$, 13$0^{\circ}C$ and 14$0^{\circ}C$ was 50-53% and 41-43% respectively. Linoleic acid content of Spanish and Virginia type peanuts roasted at same temperatures as the former was about 28-31% and 37-38% respectively. That linoleic acid content of roasted peanuts was lower than that of raw peanuts. Linoleic acid content of raw and roasted Virginia type peanut, were higher than that of Spanish type peanuts. 4. Acid value and peroxide value of oils extracted from roasted Spanish and Virginia type peanuts were much higher than those of oils extracted from raw peanuts. The maximum AVs of oils extracted from Spanish and Virginia type roasted peanuts were samples roasted at 12$0^{\circ}C$and those AVs were 0.50 and 0.63 respectively. And the maximum POVs of oils extracted from Spanish and Virginia type roasted peanuts were samples roasted at 12$0^{\circ}C$ also and those POVs were 26.8 and 32.8 meq/kg. oil respectively. Acid value and peroxide value of oils extracted from roasted peanuts were increased with increasing the roasting temperatures from 11$0^{\circ}C$ to 12$0^{\circ}C$, then decreased, while TBA values were increased continuously with increasing the roasting temperatures.

1. Crude cellulase extracted from wheat bran media of Chaetomium globosum with pH 7.0 McIlvaine buffer was fractionated by precipitation with ammonium sulfate and by treatment with the cellulose powder, DEAE-Sephadex A-25 and Amberite XE-65 (IRC-50) column chromatography. 2. Consquently two cellulases C-1 and C-2 were obtained by cellulose column chromatography. Cellulose C-1 was a powerful CMC-saccharifying and CMC-liquefying activity but cellulose C-2 was stronger CMC-liquefying activity compared to CMC-saccharifying activity and cellulase C-2 had smaller protein than that of cellulose C-1. And cellulose C-2 was fractionated by DEAE-Sephadex A-25 column chromatography into cellulase C-1-1 and cellulose C-1-2. 3. It can be obtained, therefore, that cellulose produced Chaelomium globosum consisted, at least, of three cellulases C-2, C-1-1 and C-1-2. 4. Cellulose C-1-1 was homogenous in the ultraviolet and the ultracentrifuge pattern. And cellulose C-1-1 had enzyme for CMC-saccharifying activity. 5. The optimum pH for the enzyme activity of cellulose C-1-1 was 4.0 in any methods of meas urement reducing sugar and viscosity. The optimum temperature was $40^{\circ}C$ in any methods. 6. The pH stability of cellulase C-1-1 was within pH 5.0 to pH 6.0 at $40^{\circ}C$ and fairly stable in acidic solution. 7. The heat stability was below $50^{\circ}C$ at pH 4.0 and complete heat inactivation of this cellulase occurred at $70^{\circ}C$.

Purple sweet potato pigment extract was concentrated using both membrane separation method and vacuum concentration method. The pigment extract (anthocyanin content 1.6 g/L) was concentrated $({\times}25)$ after 5 hr of continuous operation of a nanofiltration to get anthocyanin content of 10.6 g/L. Total solid content also increased continuously while the flux decreased continuously during the concentration process. Degradation index (DI) changes of concentrated pigment solution were insignificant during the whole concentration process which is indicating that the nanofiltration method does not affect color degradation of anthocyanin pigment. For the comparison test, the same pigment extract was concentrated using a rotary vacuum evaporator at temperatures of 40 and $60^{\circ}C$. At both temperatures, pigment content increased in a similar manner during concentration $({\times}5)$. However, DI value at $60^{\circ}C$ increased while that at $40^{\circ}C$ did not change appreciably. Total color difference value changed only slightly by nanofiltration and $40^{\circ}C$ while changed significantly by $60^{\circ}C$. These indicate that a membrane filtration method is more effective in concentrating purple sweet potato pigment extract than a vacuum concentration method by high temperature.

The Stability of PSP extracted from the intoxicated sea mussel, Mytilus edulis was evaluated by the thange of heating conditions and pH of the PSP solution. Also the composition of the PSP extracted from the cultured sea mussel collected at Chungmu, Korea on March 12, 1986 was analyzed. The extracted PSP was stable over the range of pH 2.0 to 4.0, but it was unstable above pH 4.5. For example. the toxicity of extracted PSP of pH 3.0 was only decreased less than $20\%$ by the treatment at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15min or at 100 for 2 hours, but it was decreased more than $80\%$ by the same treatment when the pH of the PSP solution was adjusted to 6.0. The toxin was purified from the ethanolic extract of the digestive glands of the sampled sea mussel by Bio-gel P-2 and Bio-Rex 70 column chromatography. The toxic fractions obtained were analyzed by cellulose acetate membrane electrophoresis, TLC and HPLC. The compositional analytical results of the PSP, most of the toxins were certified as $GTX_{1-4}$, while the toxicity of STX was only about 1/40 of that of $GTX_s$.

In this work we deposited Pentacene thin film by OMBD at the various substrate temperatures, deposition rate and the various annealing temperatures for the fabrication of organic TFT and investigated the electrical and film surface characteristics such as sheet resistance, contact resistance and conductance Film thickness were measured by $\alpha$-step and the sheet resistance, contact resistance and conductance were extracted from the relation between the distance of the contacts and the resistance. During the film deposition the substrate temperature was held at 3$0^{\circ}C$, 4$0^{\circ}C$, 5$0^{\circ}C$, 6$0^{\circ}C$, 8$0^{\circ}C$ and 10$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. After the film deposition, Au contact was deposited by thermal evaporation. For the effect of annealing, the thin film was annealed in the nitrogen environment at 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 14$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 seconds, respectively. Film surface characteristics at the vatious substrate temperatures were measured by AFM. The crystallization of thin film was improved as the substrate temperatures were increased and the maximum gram size was 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The conductivity of thin film was found to be 7.40 $\times$10$^{-7}$ ~ 7.78$\times$10$^{-6}$ S/cm and the minimum contact resistance was 2.5324 ㏁.

To develop new anti-aging foods or cosmetics by using antioxidants, SOD activator and elastase inhibitor, both potent anti-aging substances, were screened from various extracts of medicinal Plants and its optimal extraction conditions were investigated. Antioxidant activity has showed the highest in methanol extracts of Prunus persica (seed; 98.0$\%$). Methanol extracts of Morus alba (leave; 41.0$\%$) showed the highest elastase inhibitory activity while Lycium chinense (fruit; 197$\%$) showed the highest activation effect in SOD activity. The Prunus persica extract that exhibited the highest activity was extracted by treatment of Prunus persica powder with methanol at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 18 h and the SOD activity was maximum with extract from Lycium chinense extracted with deionized water at 30$^{\circ}C$ for 12 h. Elastase inhibitory activity of Morus alba was maximally extracted when it was treated with 70$\%$ methanol at 50$^{\circ}C$ for 12 h.
