In order to know the physicochemical properties of magnetized water, the experimental methods of column assay, crystalization of saltsand gypsom have been explored to elucidate the effects of magnetized water on the solubility speed of salts, crystal pattern from salt squeous solutions, and gypsom crystal pattern, respectively. In the column assay for salt solubility the magnetized water showed the decreased initial solubility speed of NaCl and slightly increased initial solubility spped of KCI, however, the maximum solugilities of NaCl and KCI in the magnetized aster were almost same in the double distilled water, respectively. The column assay also indicated that the magnetized water showed the decreased initial solubility speed of urea (CH$_4$N$_2$O), sodium citrate (HOC(CO$_2$Na)-(CH$_2$CO$_2$Na)$_2$-2H$_2$O) and (NH$_4$)$_2$compared to the double distilled water, while slightly increased solubility speed of glycine (NH$_2$CH$_2$COOH), boric acid (H$_3$BO$_3$), MgSO$_4$. Crystalization of 1% or 5% salt aqueous solutions by rapid evaporation disclosed that the magnetized water produced more condensed and bigger crystal structure than the control water. The pattern of gypsom crystal formation also indicated that the magntized water enhanced the crystal formation in the hydration reaction of gypsom plaster compared to the double distilled water. Taken together, it was presumed that the magnetized water showed the different physicochemical properties in the interaction with various salts, especially showed the contrast results between NaCl and KCI.

Some physicochemical properties of ginger root (Zingiber officinale) starch were compared with those of cross-linked corn starch. The ginger root starch that contained 23.5% amylose had a water-binding capacity of 99.1% and a B-type X-ray diffraction pattern. The optical transmittance of the ginger root starch suspension increased from $70^{\circ}C$ and showed a similar pattern to cross-linked corn starch. Solubility studies revealed that both ginger root and cross-linked corn starches had low swelling power and solubility in water up to $90^{\circ}C$, and reduced solubility in potassium hydroxide. Brabender amylograph data indicated that the ginger root starch (7%) had a relatively high initial pasting temperature $(81.5^{\circ}C)$ and was stable against heat and mechanical shear, which resembled to the cross-linked corn starch.

The primary objective of this work is to find the properties of sustained release dissolution pattern depending on solubility of drugs, so venlafaxine HCl and carbamazepine tablets were made by using polymer wich various particle size. Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) has been utilized in this study as an excipient that is one of the most widely used polymers for an oral sustained release formulation, and drug release pattern was strongly influenced by swelling rate depending on particle size of HPMC. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was employed to investigate the surface of tablets with various HPMC particle size, and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) was employed to investigate the crystallization of drugs in tablets. The release model equation was applied to analyze the main mechanism of drug release pattern. The results demonstrate that drug release pattern is controlled by the drug solubility and HPMC particle size.

Effect of ${\gamma}-irradiation$ on the SDS-PAGE pattern, secondary structure content, the solubility of commercial soy protein isolate (SPI) and whey protein concentrate (WPC) was investigated. The change in the subunit molecular weight of SPI and WPC irradiated in aqueous solution or dried state was studied using SDS-PAGE. The SDS-PAGE pattern of SPI irradiated in aqueous solution revealed the fragmentation and aggregation of the subunit protein. For WPC irradiated in aqueous solution. fragmentation of the subunit protein up to 10 kGy was observed. In contrast, ${\gamma}-irradiation$ of SPI and WPC in dried state did not cause any significant changes in the SDS-PAGE pattern. The change In the secondary structure of irradiated SPI and WPC solution was studied using circular dichroism. The aperiodic structure content of SPI and WPC solution increased at higher irradiation doses, which suggests that ${\gamma}-irradiation$ caused the disruption of the ordered structure of SPI and WPC solution. Gamma-irradiation also caused the change in solubility of SPI and WPC in dried state.

The effects of irradiation on the functional and structural characteristics of soy protein isolates were studied. Soymilk was irradiated at 1, 5, and l0kGy, after which soy protein isolates were prepared. The functional properties of soy protein isolates were examined including solubility, emulsion capacity and stability, foam capacity and stability, structural properties as represented by SDS-PAGE pattern, and secondary and tertiary structures. The solubility and emulsion capacity were increased by radiation treatment at 1kGy however the values were adversely affected again as dosage was increased above 5kGy. As irradiation dosage increased, an increase of foaming capacity at 1kGy and a decreasing turnover afterwards were also noted in foaming capacity, although the differences were not statistically significant. The SDS-PAGE pattern showed fragmentation and aggregation of protein molecules as affected by irradiation in proportion to the dosage increase. The results of CD and fluorescence spectroscopy revealed increased aperiodic structure contents with the dosage increase. It was assumed that irradiation dosagefrom 5 to l0kGy could initiate minimal denaturation of protein in various foods compared to general heat treatment.

Physicochemical properties for the inclusion complex of chenodeoxycholic acid(CDCA) and it's $7{\beta}-hydroxy$ epimer ursodeoxycholic acid(UDCA) with ${\beta}-cyclodextrin({\beta}-CyD)$ were studied. The formation of the complex in the solid state were confimed by polarized microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). Proton nuclear magnetic resonance$(^1H-NMR)$spectroscopy showed that CDCA and UDCA form an inclusion complex with ${\beta}-CyD$ in aqueous solution. The 1 : 1 stoichiometry of the complex was dextermined by the continuous variation method. From DSC and $^1H-NMR$ studies, there were not any differences between CDCA and UDCA. Complex of CDCA and UDCA showed increase in solubility and dissolution compared with CDCA and UDCA alone, respectively. Solubility pattern of UDCA complex was pH independent but, CDCA complex was like that of CDCA. Dissolution rate increased markedly in case of UDCA complex compared with CDCA complex, especially in acidic pH value.

Hydroxypropyl chitin (HPCH) was prepared by reacting chitin with propylene oxide. HPCH showed the improved solubility in several organic solvents compared with chitin. It showed the remarkable solubility in formic acid. Form the results of polarized microscopic observatoin of HPCH solution in formic acid, finger-print pattern was observed in concentrations over 30 wt% solution. Since no typical thermogram was observed in DSC scan, the HPCH showed a lyotropic cholestric liquid crystallinity.

The objective of this study is to investigate cryoprotective effects of corn starch enzyme hydrolysates of nonsweet and low-calories on denaturation of frozen fish protein. The cryoprotective effects of were examined in Alaska pollack actomyosin solution by changes in SDS-PAGE pattern, solubility, and $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase activity. When samples stored for 0 and 30 days were compared on SDS-PAGE patterns, severe changes in all bands were shown on the control sample regardless of storage temperature, especially in myosin heavy chain (MHC). Not much difference no appeared the electrophoretic pattern in case of the samples containing sucrose at any storage temperature during 30 days of storage. The cryoprotective effect of the hydrolysates were markedly dependant on storage temperature and no MHC band was found in the samples stored at $-5^{\circ}C$. The SDS-PAGE patterns of sample stored at $-20^{\circ}C$, however, completely maintained after 30 days or storage. When the samples were stored at $-5^{\circ}C$, the solubility of the sample containing sucrose was retained at $90\%$ after 30 days of storage, whereas dramatically decreased in other samples. The samples including sucrose, D.E. 10, 15, and 20 revealed $90\%$ in solubility when stored at $-20^{\circ}C$. The tendency of remaining $Ca^{2+}$-ATPase activity was almost shown the same as that of solubility.

Proteins in Korean rapeseeds, as in many other plantseeds, are usually bound to phytate molecules. These phytate-bound proteins are of little value as foodstuffs because of their poor solubility in digestive systems. Therefore it is necessary to remove phytates from proteins in order to convert these proteins io a useful foodstuff. In the work, an efficient procedure for removal of phytates from defatted Korean rapeseed was found. The influence of pH on the solubility of protein and phytate of rapeseed flour showed that the former was the lowest at pH 5.0 and began to increase as pH further raised. Meanwhile, the latter was the highest at pH 6.0, however, it was decreased abruptly at alkaline pH, especially to content of 1.3% at pH 11.5. The solubility cf protein was relatively high in NaCl aqueous solution at $pH\;6.0{\sim}8.0$, and did not male any noticeable difference depending on NaCl concentration. On the other hand, the solubility of phytate was high at pH of below 6.0 showing an abrupt decrease at pH of above 6.0. The solubility of protein in $CaCl_2$ aqueous solution was highest at $pH\;6.0{\sim}8.0$, however, there was no significant change at the whole range of tested pH of the solution. A maximum solubility of phytate was shown at $pH\;3.0{\sim}4.0$. And it was decreased abruptly at a higher pH of the above range and also decreased at a lower pH with higher $CaCl_2$ concentration. The solubility of phytate in $Na_2SO_3$ aqueous solution was highest at $pH\;5.0{\sim}8.0$. As the concentration goes up the maximum value of solubility was found to move to higher pHs. Depending on the concentration of $Na_2SO_3$, the decreasing pattern was changed in an alkaline solution. The solubility of phytate in the solution containing low concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ ion was low in all treatments at pH of above 7.0 and showed the maximum value at low pH as $Ca^{2+}$ ion concentration increases. The solubility of protein at pH 11.5 showed the highest value in $1mM\;Ca^{2+}$ ion solution.

This study was aimed to design and formulate the moisture-activated patches containing ofloxacin and lidocaine for antibacterial and local anesthetic action. The solubility of lidocaine at $32^{\circ}C$ in various vehicles decreased in the rank order of PG $759.5{\pm}44.5\;mg/mL$ > PGL > IPM > PEG 300 > PEG 400 > Ethanol > PGMC > DGME > PGML > OA > $Captex^{\circledR}\;300$ > $Captex^{\circledR}\;200$ > water $(4.0{\pm}0.1\;mg/mL)$. Ofloxacin revealed very low solubility, which the highest solubility was obtained from PEG 400 $(18.7{\pm}6.3\;mg/mL)$ among the vehicles used. The addition of lactic acid increased the solubility of ofloxacin dramatically; the solubility at 5% lactic acid was $133.7{\pm}9.7\;mg/mL$. As $2-hydroxypropyl-{\beta}-cyclodextrin$ was added at the concentrations of 40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 mM, the solubilities of lidocaine and ofloxacin were enhanced up to three and two times, respectively, with concentration-dependent pattern. Gel intermediates for filmtype patches were prepared with mucoadhesive polymer, viscosity builders, lidocaine or ofloxacin at pH values from 5 to 7. Gels were cast onto a release liner and dried at room temperature. Dried patch was attached onto an adhesive backing layer, thus forming a patch system. Patches containing a single drug component were characterized by in vitro measurement of drug release rates through a cellulose barrier membrane. The release study was carried out at $37^{\circ}C$ using a Franz-type cell. Receptor solutions were isotonic phosphate buffers (pH 7.4). Samples $(100\;{\mu}L)$ were taken over 24 hours and quantitated by a verified HPLC method. The releases from all tested were proportional to the square root of time. The release rates were 0.9, 157.3 and $281.7\;{\mu}g/cm^{2}/min^{1/2}$ for the lidocaine patches and 19.8,37.2 and $50.7\;{\mu}g/cm^{2}/min^{1/2}$ for the ofloxacin patches at the concentrations of 0.3, 0.5 and 1 %, respectively. The release rates were dose dependent in both drug patches $(R^{2}\;=\;0.9077\;for\;lidocaine;\;R^{2}\;=\;0.9949\;for\;ofloxacin)$ and those were also thickness-dependent $(R^{2}\;=\;0.9246\;for\;lidocaine;\;R^{2}\;=\;0.9512\;for\;ofloxacin)$.
