Self-organized nanogels from polysaccharide derivatives offer a promising approach in treatment of cancer due to their flexibility in chemistry and their ability to improve the therapeutic index of a drug by modifying biodistribution by their preferential localization at target sites and lower distribution in normal healthy tissues. These properties have promoted studies of active cancer targeting by self-organized nanogels for even better accumulation in solid tumors. However although many researchers have reported their potential by using cell culture systems and small animal tumor models in cancer therapy, these nanogels need more decoration such as conjugation with targeting moiety and endowment of stimuli-sensitivity for precise targeting of the cancer site. In this review, we summarize the recent efforts in developing novel targeting approaches via active endocytosis and stimuli-sensitive systems responding to hyperthermic or acidic tumor pH conditions.

A screen printed graphite electrode has been developed for a simple and sensitive determination of phenolic compounds in an aqueous solution. The electrode developed uses a simple and effective screen printing technique with ${\alpha}-Cyclodextrin({\alpha}-CD)$ modified graphite ink. Phenols were captured on the surface of the ${\alpha}-CD$ modified electrode through complex formation. The phenol/ ${\alpha}-CD$ complex was deposited and quantified electrochemically using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The optimization of the experimental parameters was performed in regard to electrode composition, pH, temperature, sample preconcentration time. Interferences from other organic compounds were investigated. The detection limit for phenols was 500 ${\pm}7$ nM for DPV, with the linear range of 0.5 ${\mu}M$ -25.0 ${\mu}M$ and 30 ${\pm}2$ nM for SWV, with the linear range of 30 nM - $50{\mu}M$, respectively.

Killer yeast, Hansenular capsulata S-13 were treated with heat, ethylmethane sulfonate and N-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitrosoguanidine and a mutant(S13-E1), showing 2-fold higher killer toxin activity than that of parent strain to killer sensitive strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 38026 was obtained. Hansenular capsulata S13-E1 showed strong killer toxin activity to Saccharmyces mellis and Saccharomyces sal년 and four strains of gas-producing yeasts from traditional Doenjang and Kochujang. The culture condition for killer toxin production by Hansenular capsulata S13-E1 was optimized to be 1.0% potato extract, each 0.5% of peptone and glucose, and 0.025% MgSO4 with initial pH 4.5 at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 36 hr of batch cultivation.

Nanoporous or nanotubular metal oxide can be fabricated by anodization of metal substrate in fluoride contained electrolytes. The approach allows various transition metals such as Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta to form highly ordered oxide nanostructures. These oxide nanostructures have various advantages such as high surface area, fast electron transport rate and slow recombination in semiconductive materials. Recently, vanadium oxide nanostructures have been drawn attentions due to their superior electronic, catalytic and ion insertion properties. However, anodization of vanadium metal to form oxide layers is relatively difficult due to ease formation of highly soluble complex in water contained electrolyte during anodization. Yang et al. reported $[TiF_6]^{2-}$ or $[BF_4]^-$ in electrolyte helps to formation of stable oxide layer [1, 2]. However, the reported approaches are very sensitive in other parameters. In this presentation, we deal with the other important key parameters to form ordered anodic vanadium oxide such as pH, temperatures and applied potential.

Microorganisms capale of utilizing linear alkylbenzene sulfonates(LAS) as sole carbon source were isolated from industrial effluent by using LAS agar plates. The isolated strains were identified as Salmonella sp(BC-2) and Escherichia sp.(BC-3) from the results of morphological, cultural and biochemical tests. The optimal condition for the growth and biodegradation of LAS was the initial pH 7.0 and LAS concentration 0.1%. The isolated BC-2 and BC-3 strains harbored plasmid and LAS-degrading activity was lost when the plasmids were cured by mitomycin C. The plasmids were transformed into E. coli and transformants have the LAS-degrading activity. Isolated strains were examined for primary biodegradation rate of LAS in the medium by methylene blueactive substance(MBAS) method. Of these isolates, BC-2 and BC-3 strains degradated LAS upto 60% and high resistant to CdCl$_{2}$ and HgCl$_{2}$. Isolated strains were sensitive to chloramphenicol, kanamycin, rifampicin, streptomycin and tetracycline but resistant to ampicillin and lincomycin.] Its minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) for ampicillin was more than 1500 $\mu $g/ml.

A gas chromatography/mass spectrometric assay method was developed for the determination of propylene oxide adduct, N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine. Adduct was released from hemoglobin by alkaline hydrolysis and extract at pH 8 with ethyl ether. The dried extract was completely derivatized with N-Methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA)/TMS-I (100:3). The detection limits of the assay were 0.08 ng/g for N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine based upon assayed hemoglobin of 0.1 g. The method was applied to the determination of propylene oxide adduct formed in young female Sprague-Dawley rats after treatment for 1, 2 and 3 weeks with 0.008 % propylene oxide via the drinking water. An adduct was detected by proposed procedure. The structure of the adduct could be assigned to N-(3-hydroxypropyl)valine.

A method for the determination of anionic drug, mefenamate with ion-selective electrode using Fe(II)-1,10-phenanthroline chelate as a counter ion was developed. Benzyl nitrophenyl ether (BNPE) plasticized membrane was more selective and sensitive than the other tested membranes. This membrane electrode exhibits a linear response for 10$^{-2}$ M~5 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ M of mefenamic acid with a slope of -61.4 mV/dec. in borate buffer solutions (pH 9.0). Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from various organic and ionorganic anions. Direct potentiometry and potentiometric titration method of mefenamic acid in capsule preparations are presented and compared.

A method for the determination of acidic drug, mefenamic acid and ibuprofen with ion-selective electrode(ISE) using Fe(II)-di-2-pyridyl ketone oxime complex as a counter ion were developed. Benzyl-2-nitrophenyl ether(BNPE) plasticized membrane was more selective and sensitive than the other tested membranes. The acidic drug selective electrode exhibits a linear response for 10$^{-2}$ M 510$^{-5}$ M of acidic drugs, mefenamic acid and ibuprofen with a slope of -55.9 and -56.3 mV/dec. in borate buffer solution (pH 8.9). Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acid salts. The electrodes were found to be useful for the direct determination of mefenamic acid and ibuprofen in pharmaceutical preparations.

A rapid and sensitive method for the determination of glyphosate, a phosphated amino acid herbicide, in whole blood is presented. After removal of protein, the whale blood was purified by using the anion exchange resin (Dowex 1), and derivatized with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMCL). Derivatized glyphosate from blood sample was injected onto a Whatman partisil 10SAX column and separated with 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH 2.5) and acetonitrile (ratio=3:1). The high performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection gave the detection limit of 86pg and linearity of 0.9999 in the range of 0.25 $\mu$g/ml and 25 $\mu$g/ml. The recoveries of glyphosate added to the blood samples were ranged from 75.3% to 100.4% compared to the samples prepared in water. The derivatized glyphosate was stable at various acidity and temperature. This method has been successfully applied to the blood samples of lethal intoxication with the herbicide glyphosate.

A new pyrene appended diaza-18-crown-6 ether derivative 1 has been prepared and its fluoroionophoric properties toward transition metal ions were investigated. Compound 1 exhibited a high Hg2+-selectivity over other transition metal ions as well as alkali and alkaline earth metal ions in aqueous acetonitrile solution. The ratiometric analysis of the monomer and excimer emissions of pyrene successfully signals the presence of Hg2+ ions. The detection limit for Hg2+ ions was found to be 3.1 ´ 10-6 M in 50% aqueous acetonitrile solution at pH 8.1. Competition experiments also suggest that the compound could be utilized as a selective and sensitive fluorescent chemosensor for the analysis of micromolar Hg2+ ions in physiological and environmental samples.
