To develope chemical heat pump using available energy sources, solar heat and other kinds of waste thermal energy, we have studied the material and heat transfer rate in the cylindrical bed reactor packed with Calcined Dolomite. Our results from the studies are as follows ; 1 The time needed to complete dehydration reaction at the wall side of the cylindrical reactor(r/rL=0.5) was shorter than that of the center(r/rL=0.0) as much as 12%. 2. Two dimensional (radial and circumferential) partial differential equations, concerning heat and mass transfer rate in the packed bed of calcined Dolomite, are solved numerically to describe the characteristics of the reaction in the cylindrical reactor. The solution reads rate of reaction in the packed bed reactor depends on the temperature and concentration of reactants. These results read the supplied heat transfers from the wall side of the cylinder to the center, dehydration reaction begins at the inner side of the wall of the cylindrical reactor and the dehydration reaction proceeds from the wall side to center of cylinder.

Ag powder was prepared from $AgNO_3$ by wet chemical reduction method using various reduction agent system involving $AgNO_3$, $AgNO_2$(AgCl) and Ag complex ion aqueous solution. The pure Ag powder could be prepared regardless of reaction system but the particle shape and distribution were affected very much according to the kind of reduction agents and reaction systems. The optimum reaction system for the preparation of the silver powder having the uniform particle shape and size distribution was Ag complex ion aqueous solution-reduction agent system and in particular, $H_2O_2$ and $C_6H_8O_6$as a reduction agent leaded the more uniform particle shape and size distribution.

In this paper, we present a DNA manipulation device in the reaction chamber, which consists of a center electrode and circular outer electrodes of a reaction unit. The charged bio-molecules, DNA, are manipulated by the charge of the electrode in reaction unit. Controlling the induced dynamic electric field between the center electrode and the outer electrodes, concentration / repulsion / manipulation of bio-molecules are enabled at a periphery of electrode. Concentration of the fluorescent DNA at the center electrode is observed by applying ＋2V. Subsequently, applying －2V, the concentrated DNA is repelled rapidly from the center electrode, which makes dispersion completely in 0.5second. Furthermore, repeated applying ＋1V/－1V every 5 seconds at each outer electrode, we can circulate the DNA. We also investigate a micro-heater and sensor for DNA manipulation and reaction temperature. The coefficient of heat-resistance and heater temperature characteristic is 0.0043 and 100$^{\circ}C$/sec, respectively.

Foam reaction injection molding (FRIM) is a widely used process for manufacturing polyurethane foam with complex shapes. The modified theoretical model for polyurethane foam forming reaction during FRIM process was established in our previous work. In this study, using the modified model, parametric study for FRIM process was performed in order to optimize experimental conditions of FRIM process such as initial temperature of mold, thickness of mold, and injection amount of polymerizing mixture. In addition, we applied the modified model to real application of refrigerator cabinet to determine optimal manufacturing conditions for polyurethane FRIM process.

We carried out aminolyses of various rigid polyurethane foams (PUFs) using diethylene triamine and studied application of the aminolysis products as hardners of epoxy resins. Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A was used for the study on the curing behavior of epoxy resin with the aminolysis product employing differential scanning calorimeter. Curing reaction of the epoxy resin is generally known to be autocatalytic second order reaction. We found that the curing reaction of the epoxy resin with the aminolysis product of rigid PUF did not show autocatalytic characteristics but followed the n-th order kinetics. The activation energy of the curing reaction of the epoxy resin with the aminolysis product of rigid PUF made from sugar based polyol was slightly lower than that of the epoxy resin with aminolysis product of rigid with made from amine based polyol.

Meatlike flavors were manufactured using hydrolyzed vegetable protein (HVP) with several reactive precursors at different reaction conditions. Both pH and temperature affected significantly on brown colority of reaction product, whose velocity became fast with increasing pH and temperature. Drastic decrease in residual reducing sugars and free amino acids appeared until 1 hour, being little affected by reaction temperature. Glutamic acid and cysteine were decreased with reaction time, whereas glycine and methionine remained constant. Forty nine aroma compounds formed through Maillard reaction were isolated and identified with GC/MSD, including 3-methyl butanal, 2-methyl tetrahydrothiophen-3-one, 3,4-dimethylthiophene and 2,4-dimethyl thiazole previously known as natural meat flavors. The sensory evaluation showed that one-hour reaction product was the highest in savory taste and the lowest in nasty taste on the level of 5% significant difference among all reaction products tested in this experiment. From the results above, it could be speculated that the initial stage of Maillard reaction in this experimental system occured until one hour, thereafter, savory taste decreased accompanied by increasing nasty taste with elapsed reaction time.

Chain propagation and chain transfer in anionic polymerization of hexafluoropropylene oxide were investigated under various reaction conditions such as the stabilization of reaction temperature, the amount of hexafluoropropylene solvent, and the feeding rate of hexafluoropropylene oxide monomer. Anionic initiator for the polymerization was synthesized from cesium fluoride and hexafluoropropylene oxide in tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether. It was possible to obtain a high molecular weight poly(HFPO) ($M_w$ 14800) using the anionic initiator in conditions of stabilized reaction temperature, and optimized addition of solvent and monomer feeding (HFP/initiator mole ratio=31.5 and HFPO feeding rate=11.67 g/hr). Otherwise, chain transfer reaction in anionic polymerization was increased. From the results of molecular weight in various reaction conditions, it was found that chain propagation and chain transfer in anionic polymerization of HFPO were very sensitive to reaction conditions.

The nitridation mechanism of Si by SHS at $Si-NaCl-NH_{4}Cl-NaN_3$ system was investigated in this work. It was revealed that NaCl as a diluent was helpful to the perfect nitridation reaction by retarding the growth of Si particle resulted from the melting of Si at the initial stage of the nitridation reaction. And $NH_{4}Cl\;and\;NaN_3$ formed NaCl through decomposition and combination, and the preheating of pellet was helpful to the nitridation reaction in this process. The main nitridation mechanism of this system was liquid-gas reaction. The optimum porosity of the pellet for the nitridation of ${\alpha}-Si_{3}N_4$ was $67-69\%$.

The effect of ABA on the chloroplast disassembly of Zea mays was investigated by measuring the changes in the relative distribution of chlorophyll(Chl) between the Chl-protein complexes in ABA treated and untreated sensecting leaves. The reaction center(RC)-light harvesting complex(LHC) regions were rapidly disassembled in the late stage of dark-induced senescence. Plus, during dark-induced senescence, the disassembly of a reaction center of P700 apoproteins containing mainly Chl a was faster than that of a reaction center of LHCI apoproteins containing both Chl a and Chl b. The increase in the relative distribution of Chl-protein complexes in the RC-Core2 in the late stage of senescence was due to the accumulation of core complexes such as CP47/43 and reaction centers including D1/D2 apoproteins disassembled from the RC-Corel containing the dimer of D1/D2 apoproteins. The LHCII region was more stable than the other Chl-protein complexes throughout leaf senscence. Accordingly, it is suggested that the preferential breakdown of Chl a gives rise to the disassembly of Chl a-binding proteins, particularly reaction centers and core complexes during dark-induced senescence, plus the primary target of the photosynthetic apparatus in sensecing leaves would seem to be Chl a along with the proteins associated with Chl a. The application of ABA promoted the disassembly of the P700 apoproteins in the PSI reaction center and the dimer of D1/D2 apoproteins, and the conversion of the trimeric LHCII apoprotein to the monometirc LHCII apoprotein during the middle stage of leaf senescence, thereby suggesting that ABA accelerates the disassembly of both Chl a-binding and Chl a+b-binding proteins, particularly Chl a-binding proteins during the middle stage of leaf senescence.

Leukemoid reaction has been rarely encountered in dogs. This report describes a case of leukemoid reaction showing extremely elevated leukocyte count. A 10-year-old female Maltese dog was presented with purulent and bloody vaginal discharge. The CBC revealed severe leukemoid reaction ($976\times10^9$ cells/l, reference range 6 to $17\times10^9$ cells/ l) and mild non-regenerative anemia. On the blood smear, elevated leukocytes consist of numerous neutrophils and monocytes only. Radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations revealed generalized enlargement of the uterus, which was filled with a complex fluid. After ovariohysterectomy, Escherichia coli was isolated from the uterine fluid. To author's knowledge, it is the new record of extreme leukemoid reaction caused by local bacterial infection in dogs.
