The binding of heavy metals by a biosorbent with binary functional groups was mathematically modeled. An FT-IR spectrophotometer analysis was employed to determine the stoichiometry between the protons in the functional groups of alginic acid and lead ions as a model system. The results calculated using an equilibrium constant agreed well with the experimental results obtained under various operating conditions, such as pH and metal ion concentration. It was also shown that the overall adsorption phenomenon of alginic acid was mainly due to its carboxyl groups. The equilibrium constants for each functional group successfully predicted the lead adsorption of ${\alpha}$-cellulose. Furthermore, the biosorption model could predict the adsorption phenomena of two metal ions, lead ions and calcium ions, relatively.

The single-crystal structure of $CaCl_2{\cdot}2C_6H_{12}O_6{\cdot}3H_2O$ was determined with Mr=525.34, a=16.054(7) ${\AA}$, b=7.864(4) ${\AA}$, c=10.909(5) ${\AA}$, ${\beta}=127.894(8)^{\circ}$, V=1086.9(9) ${\AA}^3$, C2, Z=2 and $R$=0.0227 for 1727 observed reflections. The fructose moiety of the complex exists as a ${\beta}$-D-pyranose. The calcium ion is surrounded by eight oxygen atoms, These are arranged in symmetry-related pairs derived from four sugar and two water molecules. Three nonvicinal hydroxyl groups of fructose are involved in calcium binding. All the hydroxyl groups and water molecules are involved in forming an extensive hydrogen-bond network.

Daunomycin, an anthracycline antibiotic, has been found to inhibit virus multiplication and shows considerable activity against tumors. Its activity may be varied by conformational changes of daunomycin. The conformational changes are come from the pucker of D-ring and variation of environments. We have carried out conformational analyses by using empirical potential function. We found that when daunomycin is hydrated or bound to $Mg^{2+}$ ion, the minimum conformer of each state is altered from ${\alpha}$ conformer to ${\beta}$ conformer through the pathway having four local minima. Our calculated results are in good agreements with those of X-ray crystallography and biological experiments, in which metal ion inhibits the binding of daunomycin to DNA.

Cadmium(II) complexation by a well characterized soil fulvic acid (FA) from the Okchun Metamorphic Belt were studied at pH of 6.0 in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ using the ultrafiltration technique. The conditional stability constants thus obtained were log K= 3.90${\pm}$0.15 and 3.99${\pm}$0.12 $L{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ at fulvic acid concentrations of 101 and 226 mg${\cdot}L^{-1}$ respectively. When free cadmium ion concentration was measured directly using an ion selective electrode, log K of 4.12${\pm}$0.03 $L{\cdot}mol^{-1}$ was obtained. These results show that fulvic acid forms predominately 1 : 1 complex with $Cd^{2+}$ ions. The maximum binding ability of this polyelectrolyte material was 0.886 mmol Cd/g FA. The average gram formula weight of fulvic acid was estimated to be 1130 daltons.

The ionophore activity of frangufoline (1), a sedative cyclopeptide alkaloid isolated from Zizyphus jujuba, was investigated by UV and CD spectroscopic methods. Frangufoline (1) showed ion binding activity to calcium and magnesium ions.

Two novel calixarene-based fluoroionophores were synthesized. Their conformations were confirmed to 1,3-alternate by X-ray crystal structures. From CHEF by blocking the PET mechanism in fluorescence spectra, we observed $In^{3+}$ and $Pb^{2+}$ selectivity over other metal ions. For $In^{3+}$ion, calix[4]-bis-azacrown-5 showed about 20 times more sensitive than calix[4]-mono-azacrown-5 because the source of the binding selectivity comes from the calixarene framework and azacrown ligand by controlling the fluorescence and PET mechanisms as-sociated with the amine moiety.
