To study the effects of sulfur dioxide on the plant; Barly, wheat, soybean sweet potato, cucumber, egg plant, red pepper, tomato, lettuce, water melon, castor bean, grape and lily were exposed to the different levels of sulfur dioxide gas(0.1, 0.25, 0.50, $1.0mg/{\ell}/hr$) The symptoms of damage, ratios of destroyed leaf, sulfur content and absorption amounts of the gas by leaves were investigated 1. According to the increasing concentration of the gas ratios of destroyed leaf were increased in all plants. The ratios of destroyed leaf were shown by egg plant at $0.1mg/{\ell}/hr$ of $SO_2$ were 30 percent, and no visible injuries were shown by the wheat potato, castor bean, water melon, lily at $0.25mg/{\ell}/hr$. 2. Gray and red brown spots between the vein nerve shown by barly and wheat leaf; leaf burn by soybean, potato, sweat potato, castor bean, egg plant, red pepper, tomato and grape; leaf withering from the leaf tips by the lettuce, water melon, lily. 3. The volums of the gas absorption by cucumber, egg plant, red peper, castor he an were more than $10{\ell}/hr$, however less than $2{\ell}/hr$, be lettuce, water melon, grape, barly and wheat. 4. According to the increasing concentration of sulfur dioxide gas, sulfur contents in leaf were increased in all plants, however volums of absorption gas were decreaed. 5. According to the increase of sulfur content in leaf, ratios of destroyed leaf were increased. 6. Positive correlation was shown between total and water soluble sulfur content in leaf.

To improve the lubricity of ultra low sulfur diesel, vegetable oil-based alkanol amide derivatives were prepared and their lubricity properties were studied. To synthesize the alkanol amides, we conducted the amidation reaction of diethaolamine High Frequency Reciprocating Rig (HFRR) and the fatty acid methyl esters, obtained by the continuous transesterification of methanol and several vegetable oil, such as soybean oil, palm oil and coconut oil. The synthesized amides were soluble in ultra low sulfur diesel in the concentration range of ca. 1 wt%; the lubricating properties of ultra low sulfur diesel containing 120 ppm of amides were measured using an HFRR method. It was found that the wear scar diameter in the pure ultra low sulfur diesel decreased significantly from 581 ${\mu}m$ to 305~323 ${\mu}m$ upon the addition of the amides, indicating that lubricating properties of the diesel were improved. On the other hand, the types of vegetable oils did not affect the wear scar diameters, implying that lubricating properties of the diesel did not depend strongly on the structures of alkyl groups of alkanol amide derivatives. When we measured the lubricating properties of the one type of diesels containing various amounts of alkanol amide, we observed that the wear scar diameter decreased drastically with increasing the amide concentration, meaning that the lubricity improved with the amide concentration.

As regional air pollution gets worse by the sulfur oxides emitted from various types of vessels passing through the many countries, the International Maritime Organization establishes the emission control areas and regulates sulfur dioxide in those areas. In order to satisfy these regional regulations, the fuel selection method and the exhaust gas post-treatment device are applied to the ships. Due to the economic reasons, the post-treatment method of exhaust gas for reducing the amount of sulfur oxides discharged is mainly preferred. The scrubber which is dominantly used in the ships are the spray type system where the sprayed liquid drops used for capturing the soluble sulfur dioxides in the exhaust gas. The performance of the spray type system depends on the size distribution of the sprayed droplets. In order to evaluate this performance, we designed counterflow type scrubber and cyclone scrubber and evaluated the desulfurization efficiency and the amount of droplet evaporation according to the size of each droplet by using computational fluid dynamics. The Eulerian-Eulerian analysis method was used because the scrubber had a gas-liquid two-phase flow inside the scrubber. When the diameter of the droplet was $100{\mu}m$, $300{\mu}m$, $500{\mu}m$ and $700{\mu}m$. As a result, both of scrubbers showed high desulfurization efficiency and low evaporation amount at $500{\mu}m$ and $700{\mu}m$.

Syntheses and properties of zwitterionic dithiocarbamates and their nickel(Ⅱ) complexes are described. The complexes have been characterized by mass infrared and electronic absorption spectroscopy, and conductivity measurement. Ni(Ⅱ)-dithiocarbamato complexes are soluble in polar solvents such as water, methanol, and acetone etc. The possible structures were proposed on the basis of elemental analyses and physical properties.

Effects of the plant growth regulator (P. G. R.)on the reaction of proteinase, $\gamma-amylase$ and acid phosphatase were investigated, and also were the conditions of production of P. G. R. by Stroptomyces sp. 445. The P. G. R. had no effect on the act ivities of such enzymes in mung bean seedling. But in germinating seed previously treated with P. G. R. it effected the activity of protease in cotyledon. In the conditions of production of P. G. R., the maxim, activity was appeared in shaking cutlure at $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 days, and by the addition of peptone or casein hydrolysate as nitrogen source, soluble starch as carbon source, and sulfur as metal ion.

This experimental study was carried out to examine the utilization of the anthracite ash as a fertizer. It was found that the ash had very small amount of the soluble matters in 2% citric acid solution therefore it is proved ineffective as a fertilizer. When the small amount of calcinated dolomite was added to the anthracite, it was observed that the resulting ash showed much increased solubility of magnesium, calcium, sulfur and silica etc in the citric acid solution. So it is concluded that the ash of the mixture of anthracite and calcinated dolomite would be one of the useful soil-conditioner and supplyer of nutrients.

In order to investigate the nutrients, such as amino acids and minerals concerned to propagate the cancer cells, cancerous tissues such as neuroblastoma with liver meta, cancer in situs. CIS, meta. squ. cell cancer, R/O squ. cell cancer, macro. RIF, metastatic papillary cancer. neck, stomach cancer, lung cancer, intestinal obs., 3 kinds of rectal cancers were analyzed. Tryptophane, a fat soluble amino acid, and minerals such phosphorus, sulfur and iron were contained exceptionally high in cancerous tissues than that of normal cells. And copper and zinc minerals were contained very low level in cancerous cells. Therefore, we can deduce that those constituents might be concerned to the formation of cancerous tissues.

Novel sulfur-containing aromatic compounds were developed as stable, high-performance organic semiconductors for OTFT applications. Of them, dinaphtho[2,3-b:2',3'-f]thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (DNTT) consisting of six aromatic rings gave high quality thin films by vapor deposition, which acted as a superior FET channel showing FET mobility as high as $3.0\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$. On the other hand, highly soluble 2,7-dialkyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophenes ($C_n$-BTBTs) gave solution-processible OTFTs with FET mobility higher than $1.0\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$.

The purpose of the paper is to explore the current knowledge on the nutritional evaluation, cholesterol-lowering effect and antitumor activity of kimchi and its ingredients(Korean cabbage, garlic, red pepper powder, ginger and onion). Kimchi contains high contents of nutrients such as vitamins(ascorbic acid, $\beta$-carotene and vitamin B complex), minerals(calcium, potassium, iron and phosphorous), essential amino acids and dietary fiber. Kimch also contains high levels of lactic acid bacteria, allicin, capsaicin, organic acid, phenol compounds, flavonoid and sulfur compounds. The dietary fiber and lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi are effective in improving intestinal microflora of human. Isoluble dietary fiber shows anticancer activity, but soluble dietary fiber shows hypocholesterolemic effect. Lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi acts as a hypocholesterolemic or anticancer agent. A major ingredient of kimchi is mainly cruciferous and allium family vegetables, which were also reported to prevent cancer and atherosclerosis. It is suggested that kimchi is important not only as one of the traditional fermented Korean food but also as therapeutic agent for carcinogenesis and hypercholesterolemic state.
