The purification of 5'-riboncleotide using ion exchange resins has been studied and the optimum conditions were determined. The amount used of Amberlite IR120 ion exchange resin in 2nd resin tower could be reduced up to 20% by pretreating the hydrolyzed RNA solution in 1st resin tower. The amount used of regenerant could be also reduced up to 20% by desalting the hydrolyzed RNA solution in the 1st tower, because the desalted solution eluted easily by the water in the 2nd tower. The crystal obtained in this experiment was the mixed-crystals of $5'-IMP.Na_2\;and\;5'-GMP.Na_2$. The crystallization of the complexes formed from $5'-IMP.Na_2\;and\;5'-GMP.Na_2$ gave the best result at pH 7.6. The yield of crystal complexes formed from $5'-IMP.Na_2\;and\;5'-GMP.Na_2$ was obtained higher in high MeOH concentration. However, in higher than 60% MeOH concentration the products was amorphous. The higher content of MeOH for the crystallization of the product gave the smaller value of $5'-IMP.Na_{2}/5'-GMP.Na_2$.

In this study, factors affecting the adsorption reaction for the separation/recovery of V and W using Lewatit monoplus MP 600, a strong basic anion exchange resin, from the leachate obtained through the soda roasting-water leaching process from the spent SCR DeNO_X catalyst investigated and the adsorption mechanism was discussed based on the results. In the case of the mixed solution of V and W, both ions showed a high adsorption ratio at pH 2-6, but the adsorption of W was greatly reduced at pH 8. In the adsorption isothermal experiment, both V and W were fitted well at the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, and the reaction kinetics were fitted well at pseudo-second-order. As a result of conducting an adsorption experiment by adjusting the pH with H₂SO₄ to remove Si, which inhibits the adsorption of V and W from the leachate, the lowest W adsorption ratio was shown at pH 8.5. Desorption of W was hardly achieved in strongly acidic solutions, and desorption of V was well performed in both strongly acidic and strongly basic solutions.

Ion exchange (IX) performance on the exchanger bed is essentially evaluated for the generation of ultrapure water in electronics and chemical industries and for the corrosion control in nuclear power plants. The breakthrough characteristics of IX bed with multi-component were investigated with both cation- and mixed-IX beds of H- and ETAH-form for four kinds of cation exchange resins by using the combined solution of ethanolamine (ETA) and ammonia (NH₃) at trace NaCl. Unlike major components (ETAH⁺ and NH₄⁺ ), the phenomena of breakthrough and overshooting at bed outlet were not observed by Na⁺ over the test period (> 3 times theoretical exchange capacity of IX bed). The breakthrough from H-form resin bed was sequentially reached by ETAH⁺ and NH₄⁺, while the overshooting was observed for ETAH⁺ at the breakthrough of NH₄⁺. NH₄⁺ was 51.5% higher than ETAH⁺ in terms of the relative selectivity determined with the width of breakthrough zone. At the increased concentration of Na⁺ at bed inlet, the selectivity and the overshooting were decreased and increased, respectively. Na⁺ leakage was higher from ETAH-form resin bed and was not identical for four kinds of cation-exchange resins, which may be reduced by improving the intrinsic property of IX resin.

This study was carried out to select most efficient bonding methods of geogrid at the interface of old concrete pavement before placing asphalt overlay layer for reflection cracking retardation. Three bonding methods, a RSC-4 emulsified asphalt, a compound and an unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) were compared in this study. Three types of asphalt mixture (AC 60-80, RLDPE 8%, PG 76-22) and a dense-graded aggregate were used for overlay asphalt pavement. A reinforcing material which consists of a woven fabric underneath a glass fiber grid was used. An expedite test method which is for simulating mixed mode (mode I and II) fracture test was performed using a wheel tracker in laboratory. Cracking development by load repetition was measured as fatigue life (number of load cycle) and expansion of specimen body were measured for each test specimen. The results showed that UPR was the best and RSC-4 the next. But considering field applicability, RSC-4 was considered as an appropriate choice for bonding reinforcing material.

Endodontic surgery is performed when conventional endodontic therapy fails or is contraindicated. In such cases, retrograde filling materials including amalgam, composite resin, and various cements have been used. Biocompatibilty and margin sealing ability of retrograde filling materials are important for the long term success of endodontic surgery. In vitro cell culture is frequently used as the method of measuring the biocompatibilty of dental materials. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity of six kinds of retrograde filling materials including newly developed light curing glass ionomer cements. Each material was mixed according to. the manufacture's instruction and evaluated as : freshly mixed, 24-hour after mixing, and 168-hour after mixing respectively. The elution solution was extracted after 24-hour contact with materials using media. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by direct contact, or elution contact. Test results of radiochromium($^{51}Cr$) release, cell viability using tetrazolium dye (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl dimethyltetrazolium bromide(MTT) test and lactate dehydrogenase(LD) of damaged L929 cells were analyzed. In the $^{51}Cr$ release of direct contact, all experimental retrograde filling materials except amalgam and glass ionomer cement showed increased cytotoxicity compared to control. In the $^{51}Cr$ release of elution solution, the released $^{51}Cr$ was so minimal that it was impossible. to evlauate the cytotoxicity exactly. The elution solutions of glass ionomer cement and IRM showed marked cytotoxicity in MTT test. LD enzyme activity was highest in tests of direct contact with composite, light curing composite, and light curing glass ionomer cement and IRM. Amalgam revealed least cytotoxicity while IRM showed cytotoxicity using all three methods. Composite, light curing composite and light curing glass iomomer cement were cytotoxic in the tests of $^{51}Cr$ release and LD activity. Glass ionomer cement showed cytotoxic effect only in the MTT method. From these results it is suggested that the standardization and optimization of cytotoxicity testing, especially using elution solutions, should be strongly advised.

In this study, we report on a simple, efficient method for obtaining penicillin G amidase (PGA) from recombinant Escherichia coli using a formulation mixed with detergent and lysozyme. Research was conducted on the extraction efficiency of PGA from the periplasmic space in cells in terms of the type of detergent, detergent concentration, pH, reaction time, and temperature of permeabilization. The extraction yield of PGA in the formulated surfactant/lysozyme treatment was increased by approximately (55-65 U/ml) in comparison with that in the single surfactant treatment. The released PGA solution was concentrated and exchanged with buffer using an ultrafiltration (U/F) system. The yields of diatomite filtration, membrane filtration (M/F), and U/F were 69.7%, 93.8%, and 77.3%, respectively. A total of 212 KU of PGA was recovered. At the 25-L culture scale, the overall yield of extraction using the mixed surfactant/lysozyme method was 49.2%. The specific activity of extracted PGA was 11 U/mg in protein. The concentrated PGA solution was immobilized on microporous silica beads without further purification of PGA. The total immobilization yield of PGA on the resin was 48.7%, while the enzyme activity was 101 U/g. The immobilized PGA was successfully used to produce 6-APA from penicillin G. Our results indicated that a simple extraction method from periplasmic space in E. coli may be used for the commercial scale production of ${\beta}-lactam$ antibiotics using immobilized PGA.

Distribution coefficients (C) of some transition metal ions such as Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Hg(II) have been determined in methanol-, ethanol-, isopropanol-, acetone-, and dimethylsulfoxide-water mixtures by using Rexyn 101 (Na-form) resin and 0.2 M sodium chloride solution. The log C values of the metallic ions decrease almost straightly with the increase in reciprocal values of the dielectric constants of the mixed solvents. In the solvents having the same dielectric constants, the distribution coefficients of the metallic ions decrease with the increase in the basicity of the aprotic organic molecule and with the decrease in the molecular size of the protic organic molecule. The separation of the metallic ions has been accomplished with the eluting agent suggested by the C values.

SBR, polyurethane, acryl and epoxy latex were seperately mixed with ethylene-vinylacetate emulsion(EVA) in the range of $0{\sim}50%$ (wt.% ). For the mixtures, the various physical properties were examined. The viscosity of mixtures was mainly influenced by compatability with EVA emulsion, was decreased within 20% (wt.% ) of latex content, and showed the similar values over 20% (wt.% ) of latex content. The workable time of cement mixtures was mainly depended on the reactivity with cement. The formation of film could be only within $30{\sim}40$ minutes from mixing cement. The tack-free time of mixtures was influenced by the sorts of resin and the quantity of cement. The slow order of tack-free time was epoxy mixtures>SBR mixtures>urethane mixtures>acryl mixtures. The pencil hardness of mixtures was $4B{\sim}2H$, represented higher value in cement mixtures than in emulsion state.

The adsorption characteristics of ions were evaluated for the nitrate-selective carbon electrode (NSCE) in accordance with power supply methods. The NSCE was fabricated by coating the surface of a carbon electrode with anion-exchange resin powders with high selectivity for the nitrate ion. Capacitive deionization (CDI) experiments were performed on a mixed solution of nitrate and chloride ion in constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) modes. The number of total adsorbed ions in CV mode was 15% greater than that in CC mode. The mole fraction of adsorbed nitrate ion showed the maximum 58%, though the mole fraction was 26% in the mixed solution. This indicates that the fabricated NSCE is highly effective for the selective adsorption of nitrate ions. The mole fraction of adsorbed nitrate was nearly constant value of 55-58% during the adsorption period in CC mode. In the case of CV mode, however, the values increased from the initial 30% to 58% at the end of adsorption. We confirmed that the current supplied to cell is important factor to determine the selective removal of nitrate.

Two functional urethane acrylates were synthesized by using polycarprolactonediol (PCLD) and diisocyanate. The synthesized fuctional urethane acrylate was mixed with butyl acrylate(BA) or adhesion promoters, and their properties were investigated. To synthesize an excellent transparent urethane acrylate, isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI) was used. In addition, the effect of adding butyl acrylate for the improvement of shrinkage of urethane acrylate was studied. The results showed that the addition of butyl acrylate improved the shrinkage, and the optimum butyl acrylate content was 15 wt%. Both 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate (2-EHA) and ethyl acrylate(EA) were polymerized at $85^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs to use as adhesion promoters, and the polymerized adhesion promoters were mixed to the UV-curing resin. The results showed that the adhesion properties increased with the increase of adhesion promoters content up to 15 wt%.
