  • Thermal inactivation of Tyichoderma viride cellobiohydrolase was investigated by immunoassay and residual enzyme assay such as carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) and filter paper degradation activity (FPase). Arrhenius plots of cellobiohydrolase were appeared as straight line. The Z-values of cellobiohydrolase calculated by CMCase, FPase and immunoassay were 5.2$^{\circ}C$, 6.4$^{\circ}C$ and 5.8$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters obtained from FPase were better agreement with those of immunoassay than CMCase assay.

  • The purpose of this study was simply to obtain gold through a microwave-nitric acid experiment of invisible gold concentrate with the use of filter paper. For the purpose, this study conducted a microwave-nitric acid leaching experiment and examined nitric acid concentration. As a result of the experiment, this study discovered that Fe, Te and Ag were completely leached in the leaching solution whereas Au was not determined in all of the nitric acid conditions. The leaching solution was filtered with three filter papers and then these filter papers were analyzed with SEM/EDS. As a result of the EDS analysis, Au was detected in all of the surface and cross-section of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd filter papers. As the three filter papers containing solid-residue were analysed in the lead-fire assay, gold particles were found in all of the nitric acid conditions. In the lead-fire assay, maximum gold(452.50g/t) was recovered when nitric acid concentration was 6M and microwave leaching time was 12mins.

  • A rapid and simple method for detecting colors was attempted on the basis of absorption and emission spectra of reflected light at $45^{\circ}$ angle from color-adsorbed filter paper illuminated by ultraviolet light through interference filter. Absorption spectra of prepared samples revealed more characteristic patterns than emission spectra. Detection of colors was readily accomplished by the investigation of wave length range, distribution pattern, the number of absorption bands and the degree of quenching.

  • Artemisinin resistance (ART) has been confirmed in Greater Mekong Sub-region countries. Currently, C580Y mutation on Pfkelch13 gene is known as the molecular marker for the detection of ART. Rapid and accurate detection of ART in field study is essential to guide malaria containment and elimination interventions. A simple method for collection of malaria-infected blood is to spot the blood on filter paper and is fast and easy for transportation and storage in the field study. This study aims to evaluate LAMP-SNP assay for C580Y mutation detection by introducing an extra mismatched nucleotide at the 3' end of the FIP primer. The LAMP-SNP assay was performed in a water bath held at a temperature of 56℃ for 45 min. LAMP-SNP products were interpreted by both gel-electrophoresis and HNB-visualized changes in color. The method was then tested with 120 P. falciparum DNA from dried blood spot samples. In comparing the LAMP-SNP assay results with those from DNA sequencing of the clinical samples, the 2 results fully agreed to detect C580Y. The sensitivity and specificity of the LAMP-SNP assay showed 100%. There were no cross-reactions with other Plasmodium species and other Pfkelch13 mutations. The LAMP-SNP assay performed in this study was rapid, reliable, and useful in detecting artemisinin resistance in the field study.

  • Telomerase synthesizes telomeric DNA repeats onto chromosome ends de novo. Telomerase activation and telomere shortening in human somatic cells have been implicated in cell tumorigenesis and immortalization. In order to find the potential inhibitors against telomerase activitiy which can be used as potential anticancer agents, we screened about 100 kinds of natural products after partition into n-hexane, ethyl acetate and aqueous layers from methanol extracts. The inhibitory effects of these materials against telomerase enzyme activity were tested in 293T cell culture using telomeric repeat amplification protocol(TRAP). The incorporation of $\^$32/P-dGTP into amplified DNA was measured by adsorption to Whatman DE81 paper instead of using TRAP assay for screening the extracts of natural products. Strong effective compounds were not found in this study but DE81 filter spotting method may be a useful model for the screening. Some of the compounds which showed somewhat inhibitory effects had cytotoxic effects also.

  • The micro-assay methods of vanillin have been shown quite few, though several methods have been introduced for determination. A new sensitive micro-determination of vanillin, applying the yellow color reaction of vanillin and anillin, is shown in this paper. The absorption maximum of the yellow coloring matter, 4-Oxy-3-methoxy-henzal aniline, was 435 mu. The one dimensional ascending paper chromatographic method is applyed for isolation of vanillin from the mixed sample. The microdetection of vanillin is studied only in this paper. Vanillin was detected by the yellow spot on paper trip by the coloring reagent of aniline after several hours paper strip chromatographic at the following condition; paper strip ................ 2.5 X 35cm Whatman Filter Paper No.2 developing Solvent ......... petroleum-benzene-methanol n-butanol-water coloring agent ............. aniline. The Rf-value on petroleum benzene and methanol was 0.63 and that on n-butanol and water was 0.90. The minimum detectable amount of vanillin by this method was 10 micrograms. It is recommendable, if interference substances as aromatic aldehydes present, that the application of this aniline reaction and Foline Denis reaction on the same paper chromatogram is appreciable.

  • The aim of this study was to select various fungal strains indigenous to Korea that have the potential to produce cellulases, including filter paper activity (FPase), $endo-{\beta}$-1,4-glucanase (EG), and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ (BGL). Among the 25 species of Ascomycetes and the 32 species of Basidiomycetes tested in this study, the Bjerkandera adusta KUC10565, Heterobasidion orientale KUC10556, Hyphoderma praetermissum KUC10609, and Trichoderma harzianum KUC1716 all exhibited remarkably high FPase activity. In addition, the T. harzianum KUC1716 showed high levels of EG and BGL activity. This strain has been selected for further study because of their enzymatic potential.

  • Autotoxicity restricts reseeding of new alfalfa(Medicago sativa L.) after alfalfa until autotoxic chemical(s) breaks down or is dispersed into external environments, often requiring up to a year or more. One solution for reducing autotoxicity would be to select germplasms or cultivars with tolerance to the autotoxic chemical(5) and use genetically breeding program. Bioassay of seed germination and early seedling growth was conducted to evaluate autotoxic responses of 3 varieties of alfalfa to the water-soluble extracts(at 4 and 8g/L) from alfalfa ‘Cody’leaf by using agar and filter paper medium in a petri-dish assay. Root length at 5 days after seeding was more sensitive to the extract than was hypocotyl length or seed germination, and was a better parameter of autotoxic effects of alfalfa leaf extracts. Use of an agar medium gave better sensitivity of root length than did use of filter paper. Evaluating tolerance with percent of control was more important indicator than was mean of root length because of significant variation among varieties in root length of control treatment. Bioassay ranked varieties in the following order of tolerance on the basis of relative root length; “Cody” >“ Pioneer 5373” >“ Alfagraze”. Seedling growth from old “Cody” seed was more sensitive to the autotoxic chemical(5) than was that from newly produced seed.

  • A liquid chromatographic method, using matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) is developed for the extraction of residual furazolidone in chicken eggs. Blank or fortified egg samples (0.5 g) were blended with Octadecylsilyl (Bulk $C_{18}$, 40${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 18%. load, endcapped. 2 g) derivatized silica. After homogenization, $C_{18}$/egg and Na$_2$S $O_4$matrix were transferred to a column made of 10 ml glass syringe and filter paper and compressed 4.0∼4.5 ml volume. The column was washed with 8 ml of hexane and dried under $N_2$ gas. Furazolidone was eluted with acetonitrile (8 ml) under gravity. The eluate containing furazolidone was free from interfering compounds when analyzed by HPLC with UV detection (365 nm, photodiode array). Calibration curves were linear (r = 0.99985) and inter- (1.47%) and intra-assay (5.29%) variabilities for the concentration range examined (7.8∼497 ng/g of eggs, 20 ${mu}ell$ injection volume) were indicative of an acceptable methodology for the analysis of furazolidone. Average recovery of furazolidone added to egg was 96.2%. The limit of detection for the proposed method was 1 ng/g for furazolidone. The method using MSPD is proposed as an alternative assay to the classical method which involves the use of large volumes of a harmful solvent and requires a long tedious separation and clean-up processes prior to its determination.
