Norditerpene alkaloids are the main toxic principles of traditional oriental herb 'chuawu(bu-shi),' which have been used in Chinese materia medica mainly for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. They are biosynthesized via cyclization of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, incoration of 2-aminoethanol and decarboxylation not via amino acid pathway, and the structural characteristics have tempted several oxidative reactions. In this study various norditerpene alkaloids were subjected to react active manganese dioxide and oxoammonium salt as oxidants. The oxidation was proceeded as dealkylation with aconitine type and dehydrogenations with lycoctonin and heteratisine type.

To produce reconstituted rabbit embryos with fetal fibroblasts, the present study was evaluated the efficiencies of the activation conditions as assessments of subsequent development and chromosome in the embryos. New Zealand White rabbits were used throughout the study. Fetal fibroblasts collected from 22-d of fetuses were cultured in DMEM＋10% FBS in 5% CO₂ in air. The culture was maintained for 10 passages. In every passage half of cell suspension were kept in frozen. (omitted)

The corrosion resistance and the hardness of the tin-nickel alloy deposits electroplated in pyrophosphate bath were invesitigated according to electrolysis conditions and microstructure of the alloy. The weight loss of alloy deposits increased with the Sn content of single phase (Ni-Sn) alloy showing the lowest weight loss in the alloy with 54∼57wt% Sn. On the other hand, the multiphase alloy with 35∼42wt% Sn showed the highest one. The CASS test result was consistent with that of immersion test, and was good agreement with the corrosion data of polarization measurements. The hardness of alloy deposits decreased with the increase of Sn ratio in bath due to the grain size increase of the alloy. However, it increased noticeably with decreasing current density in the bath condition of low Sn ratio (0.1)

The quinolinic acid(QA) phosphoribosyltransferase (PRTase) (EC 2.4.2.19), is a key enzyme involved in NAD$\^$+/ biosynthesis in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, The QAPRTase produces nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NAMN) from QA and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP). For this reaction, the QA is decarboxylated (Fig.1). Produced NAMN is used to a synthesis of nicotinate adenine dinucleotide(NAD$\^$+/).

Chemical modification of the S. cerevisiae farnesyl protein transferase (FPT) with CMC, phenylglyoxal and DEPC resulted in enzyme inactivation, depending upon the reagent concentration. The peptide substrate GST-PEP-I, a GST-fused undecapeptide mimicking the C-terminus of $p21^{Ki-ras}$, protected the enzyme against inactivation by CMC which is specific to either aspartate or glutamate, while the other substrate farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) showed protection against phenylglyoxal which is the specific modifier of arginine residues, dependent on the substrate concentrations. Neither of the two substrates protected the enzyme against histidine inactivation by DEPC. It is suggested that there is at least one aspartate or glutamate residue at the peptide substrate binding site, and that at least one arginine residue is located at the binding site of FPP. There also seems to be at least one histidine residue which is critical for enzymic activity and is exposed toward the bulk solution, excluded from the substrate binding sites.

Co/Cu GMR multilayers were electrodeposited from various electrolytes using the dual bath technique to achieve high sensitive GMR multilayers. GMR ratio and sensitivity were strongly influenced by solution compositions and electrodeposition parameters where GMR and sensitivity of 12% and 0.052%/Oe were achieved from pyrophosphate baths. The effect of plating conditions on properties of Co/Cu multilayers may be attributed to crystallinity and grain size of deposits, and the ability of plating solutions to deposit contiguous films at lower nano thicknesses.

The present study was conducted to assess the dietary and nutritional status of thiamin in fourty-two elderly women. Dietary intake was determined by 24hour recall method and nutritional status of thiamin was determined by measurement of transketolase activity in erythrocytes. Average dietary intake of energy and thiamin were found to be low, and not more than 78% and 63.2% of Recommended dietary allowances(RDA) respectively. Transketolase activity in erythrocytes was distributed in the range of 0.227-0.589mU/mgHb and the mean value and 0.434mU/mgHb. The mean value of Thiamin pyrophosphate effect(TPP effect) was 24.0% and the range was from 9.36% to 83.9%. It appeared that 95% of 42 elderly women were severely or marginally deficient in thiamin status, showing 22 persons to be above 20% and 18 persons to be 15-20% of TPP effect. Transketolase activity and TPP effect did not show any significant correlation with dietary thiamin intake.

The effects of pulse current electrolysis conditions on the composition and the microstructure of Ag-Sn alloy were studied by using a pyrophosphate bath. Both cathode current efficiency and throwing power of alloy deposits formed under pulse plating conditions, decreased with increasing mean current density, and lower than those under D.C. electrolysis condition. Tin content of Ag-Sn alloy decreased noticebly with in-creasing the mean current density, while it increased with the increase of On-time from 1 to 10 ms. The pre-ferred orientation of Ag-Sn alloy changed with increasing cathode overpotential in the sequence of (100)longrightarrow(100)+(111)longrightarrow(111) at $20^{\circ}C$ and (110)longrightarrow(111)longrightarrow(111)+(100) at $30^{\circ}C$. The effective crystal grain size of the alloy was decreased by decreasing temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $20^{\circ}C$ and the surface structure of them was related to the preferred orientation.

Effects of chemical composition ($Cu^{2+}$, $K_4P_2O_7$ and additive concentrations) of baths on properties of Cu thin films electrodeposited from pyrophosphate copper bath were investigated. Current efficiency was increased to be near 100% with increasing $Cu^{2+}$ concentrations from 0.02 to 0.3M. Decrease of current efficiency was observed in the range of 1.5~1.8M $K_4P_2O_7$ concentration, but current efficiency of about 100% was measured in the ranges of both 0.9~1.3M and 2.1~2.4M. The change of additive concentration did not influenced current efficiency. Residual stress of electrodeposited Cu thin films was measured to be about 20 MPa below 0.15 M $Cu^{2+}$ concentration and increased with the increase of it to 0.25 M. Maximum residual stress of 120MPa was observed at 0.25M $Cu^{2+}$ concentration. On the other hand, residual stress decreased from 80 to near 0 MPa as $K_4P_2O_7$ concentration varied from 0.9 to 2.4M and but The change of additive concentration did not affected on residual stress. $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations significantly affect on surface morphology of electrodeposited Cu thin films, but additive concentration slightly affected. From XRD analysis, the microstructures of electrodeposited Cu thin film was affected from the changes of $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations, but not from that of additive concentration. Strong preferred orientation of (111) peak was observed with increasing $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations.
