토양 속에서 발생될 수 있는 용질과 용매의 복합 수송시스템을 대상으로 한 연구 중 회석상태로부터 포화상태에 이르기까지의 넓은 농도분포를 가지는 토양 용액에 적용될 수 있는 물리 화학적 이론에 입각한 지배방정식을 발표한 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구는 용매와 토양기체간 그리고 용질과 결정간의 상변화를 고려한 연립물질수지방정식을 제시하고, 여기에 타율적 대류를 포함하는 상호확산 분산수송방정식을 도입하여 대류와 확산에 관한 프럭스를 분리, 결정하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 대류 플럭스의 결정은 타율적으로 이루어지는 것이 이론적으로 타당하며, 이러한 타율적 대류 플럭스가 제공된다면 본 연구에서 제시된 지배방정식을 이용해서 토양용액의 복합수송 시스템을 범용적으로 해석, 예측할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried to a textile conservation process included washing effect fiber analysis such as fiber identification fabric density and thickness color fading and of extracted soils. the following results were obtained. 1. AS a result of investigating to fabric surfaces by S.E.M all of cleaning methods wet cleaning-solvent cleaning in charge system were effective to remove soils from fabrics. 2. The buried fabrics were made of silk few of them were cotton ramie and hemp. 3. According to fabric density and thickness used fabrics were almost medium weight fabrics. 4. Low values of L, a, b indicated that the colors of these fabrics were faded to yellow and brown. 5. The soil components were hydrocarbon-alkane group alkyl alcohol and ketone group.

The drag reduction is the phenomenon that occurs only when the shear stress from the wall of pipe is beyond the critical point. The drag reduction increase as the molecular weight, concentration of the polymer and Reynolds number increase, but it is limited by Virk's maximum drag reduction asymptote. Because of the strong shear force for the polymer on the turbulent flow, the molecular weight and the drag reduction do not decrease. Such mechanical degradation of the polymer occurs in all polymer solvent systems. This paper is to identify and develop high performance polymer additives for fluid transportations with the benefits of turbulent drag reduction. In addition, drag reduction in vertical flow by measuring the pressure drop and local void fraction on vertical-up flow of close system is evaluated.

The enzymatic synthesis of 3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) was examined for the effects of the reaction additives such as sodium borate, alcohol, and organic solvents. The enzyme used was tyrosine phenol-lyase of Citrobacter freundii KCTC 2006 produced in Escherichia coli. The amounts of tyrosine phenol-lyase and pyridoxal-5-phosphate were optimized to 2.0 units/ml and 0.1 mM, respectively, for the synthetic reaction. Sodium borate, a substance that forms a complex with pyrocatechol, reduced the enzyme deactivation by pyrocatechol although it seriously inhibited the enzyme activity. Among the organic solvents tested, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, and alcohol increased the productivity of the L-DOPA synthesis. In a reaction system with 5% methanol, L-DOPA concentration increased up to 210 mM after 24 hours, and 77.1% of which was separated as precipitates. The L-DOPA was purified to 99.96% by solubilizing and recrystallyzing the precipitates.

Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCM) have attracted great interest in recent researchers as alternative medicines for incurable diseases. This review focuses on qualitative and quantitative analytical approaches for bioactive metabolites of components flavonoids and saponins of traditional Chinese medicines by TLC system, although various methods have been introduced. Emphasis will be put on the processes of metabolite extraction from intestinal bacterial cultures or urines, separation (mobile phase) and detection. The identified metabolites by selection of extraction solvent and detection methods are also discussed. In addition, metabolite determinations of flavonoids (baicalin, apiin, rutin, quercetin, quercitrin, kaempferol, diosmin, hesperidin, poncirin, naringin, puerarin, daidzin, daidzein, tectoridin) and saponins (ginsenosides, kalopanaxsaponins, glycyrrhizin, chiisanoside, saikosaponins, soyasaponins) in culture fluid, in urine and in some herbal formula extracts are summarized. These bioactive metabolites of these components by intestinal microflora should be connected to pharmacological actions.

Photonic band gap (PBG) materials have been of great interest due to their potential applications in science and technology. Their applications can be further extended when PBG becomes tunable against various chemical and electrical stimuli. In recent, it was found that tunable photonic band gap materials can be achieved by incorporating stimuli-responsive smart gels into PBG materials. For example, the characteristic volume phase transition of gels in response to the various external stimuli including temperature, pH, ionic strength, solvent compositions and electric field were recently combined with the unique optical properties of photonic crystals to form unprecedented highly responsive optical components. Since these responsive photonic crystals are capable of reversibly converting chemical or electrical energy into characteristic optical signals, they have been considered as a good platform for label-free chemical or biological detection, actuators or optical switches as well as a model system for investigating gel swelling behavior. Herein, we report block copolymer photonic gels self-assembled from polystyrene-b-poly (2-vinyl pyridine) (PS-b-P2VP) block copolymers. In this talk, we are going to demonstrate that selective swelling of lamellar structure can be effectively utilized for fabricating PBG materials with extremely large tunability. Optical properties and their applications will be discussed.

Polygonum aviculare L. was extracted by methanol and then fractionated systematically with solvents and column chromatographic method in order to isolate ingredients with anti-lipid peroxidation and liver protectective effects. Among these fractions, ethylacetate soluble part(MWE) showed the strongest in the anti-lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, the crude subtraction(MWE 4) with Rf value near 0.42, which is separated from MWE by column chromatography using a solvent system, inhibited the lipid peroxidation of rat liver in vitro. Moreover, MWE 4 decreased GOT, GPT and TBA value compared with control and suggested high protective effects against hepatotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride in mice. The active compounds in MWE 4 were assumed to be flavonoid glucosides.

In order to facilitate the quality control of betaine from the fruits of Lycium chinense, we have developed a rapid and simple method for quantitative determination. Determination was achieved on a Discovery C18 column with an isocratic solvent system of 0.32% perfluoropentanoic acid aqueous-acetonitrile at a flow-rate of 0.5 mL/min and detected an ELSD. The method was reproducible with intra- and inter-day variations of less than 6% (R.S.D). The recoveries were in the range of 90.01~100.05%. The method turned out to be fast and simple, furthermore, to have a good selectivity and sensitivity for the quantity determination of betaine in the fruits of L.chinense.

The methanol extracts of AraIia elata showed antimicrobial activity against bacteria. The antimicrobial active principle was successively purified with solvent fractionation, silica gel adsorption column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, silica gel partition column chromatography and HPLC. The active substance was isolated by HPLC on $C_{18}$ column with an acetic acid-MeOH system. The active substance was identified as trans-4-hydroxycinnamic acid by MS, $^1H-NMR\;and\;^{13}C-NMR$.

Peptide bond hydrolysis는 세포 내외의 생화학반응에 있어서 핵심이다. 하지만 amide Hydrolysis Mechanism은 아직 명확하게 규명되지 않았다. pH가 중성인 물에서의 비 촉매 가수분해가 발생하는 몇몇 실험적 증거가 있지만, 해당 반응 매커니즘은 4 가지(non-assisted concerted, non-assisted step-wise, assisted concerted, assisted step-wise)로 여전히 논란이 있다. 이번 연구에서는, Formamide의 가능한 Hydrolysis Mechanism을 자세히 연구해보고자 한다. 먼저, Ab-initio 계산을 통해 4가지 반응 메커니즘의 다시 한번 확인하고, quantum chemical calculations과 quantum mechanical molecular dynamic이 결합된 (QMMD) simulation을 통하여 water solvent에서의 반응 메커니즘의 에너지관계를 규명하였다. 결론적으로 아직 계산이 끝나지 않은 supported concerted mechanism을 제외한 모든 계산에서 non-supported, supported 두 system 모두에서 step-wise가 일어나기 쉬웠고, non-supported 보다 supported mechanism이 선호됨을 보였다. Intermediate인 amino-gem-diol의 수용액 상에서 안정화 또한 나타났다. 이는 Ab-initio 계산만 통해서는 정확하게 산출할 수 없는 엔트로피의 영향을 잘 보여준다.
