A experiment was performed to investigate the stigmasterol and campesterol in the Panax ginseng. Crude sterol fraction obtained from the ginseng was analysed by TLC and quantitative determination of ${\beta}$-sitosterol was performed with colorimetric method. The results were summarized as follwer, 1. It was observed with ethyl ether-petroleum ether extract of the ginseng that there was no evidence of showing the presence of both free capesterol and stigmasterol but that only ${\beta}$-sitosterol was presence in an significant amount. 2. Average amount of the ${\beta}$-sitosterol was 0.20-0.35mg per gram of the sample.

The varation of potential and completeness of reaction in an oxidation-reduction titration of Red$_1$ ($a\;Ox_1+N_1e{\leftrightarrow}b\;Red_1)\;by\;Ox_2\;(C\;Ox_2+n_2e{\leftrightarrow}d\;Red_2)$ is analyzed on the basis of general expressions. It is shown that the reaction deficiency as well as the rate of variation of the potential with titration fraction change in proportion to the $[n_2(a-b)-n_1(c-d)]$ th power of the concentration of the reagents. In particular, at the equivalence point, the expression of the potential contains a concentration dependent term that is proportional to ac-bd. Thus, the equivalence-point potential varies with the concentration of the reagents unless ac=bd is satisfied. It is also shown that the sharpness of the potentiometric titration curve is shown to occur either prior to or after the equivalence point depending upon whether $n_1cn_2b$, the deviation being the same order of magnitude as the relative deficiency at the equivalence point.

In order to search a method of manufacturing better activated clay in an effcient way, attempt was made to select particularly samples for activation to concentrate the research upon them with varied activation to concentrate the research upon them with varied activation conditions. Special attention was also made to the low quality materials because they may become good activated clay if treated under a suitable activation condition.

Composition of Acid Clay, the raw material for activated clay manufacturing, was investigated to develop useful data in deciding activation condition. Speculations on components and structure of activated clay were also made in order to see how included components of raw materials change during activation process. And a study was made on relations between structure of activated its adsorptivity. For this research, theremogravimetric analysis, X-ray differaction analysis and calculation of adsorptive index were carried out.

The relation between the heating temperature and the V.C.P(Vacuum Condensing Point) at different degree of vacuum through the sublimatographic separation was studied where by ; (1) Anthracene and Anthraquinone, ${\alpha}$-Naphtol and ${\beta}$-Naphthol, o-Aminobenzoicacid and p-Aminobeenzoicacid were easily separated from each of its mixtures as shown in Figure9, 10 and 11, while tailings appeared appreciably. The results were in good agreement with those expected from the $t_k$-V.C.P curves in Figures 3,4,5,6,7 and 8. (2) The relation between the degree of vacuum and the V.C.P. of ${\alpha}$-Naphthol and Anthracene at different heating temperatures appeared as follows and are shown in Figures 12 and 13.

A simple and convenient device for deflection-type direct reading the variations in electrolytic conductance is described and applied to the analysis of sulfur by combustion-$H_2O_2$ oxidation method. The apparatus consisted of a high resistance-ratio bridge in which the other adjacent arms are the differential cells. By adopting unusually high a-c voltage source for the bridge excitation, the a-c method for unbalanced bridge is established, decreased sensitivity owing to reduced bridge factor, 0.01, is overcome and also the absolute sensitivity and linearity are greatly improved. Over 50% variations in impedance of the balanced cell, within 1% deviation from the linearity can be attained with a volt (rms)order of output which was detected directly with VTVM without further amplification. Analysis of the bridge shows that these useful features are natural result of the constant current character of the high source impedance generator and the performance of the device agreed with the theoretical predictions. A standard procedure for the rapid analysis of sulfur using the bridge is also given, the analytical accuracy was approximately 1%. A determination takes not more than 5 minutes.

1) The copolymerzation of acrylamide $(M_1)$ with styrene $(M_1)$ was studied in absolute methanol solution at $50^{\circ}C$, using azobisisobutyronitrile as a initiator. The monomer reactivity ratios determined at $50^{\circ}C$ were as follows: $r_1=0.2,\;r_2=1.05$ and from these values, Q and e values for acrylamide were calculated as 0.37$(Q_1)$ and 0.45 $(e_1)$. 2) Overall activation energy of copolymer was calculated to 24.3K/cal mol, using the Arrhenius epuation. 3) Measurement of intrinsic viscosity and observation of physical properties were made on the copolymer.

An improved derivative thermometric titration apparatus designed around operational amplifiers is described which is capable of monitoring the small temperature change and of computing the derivatives for accentuation of the titration end point that is difficult to locate by extrapolation methods. The instrument is constructed of four commercial operational amplifiers. A use of dummy cell provides the subtraction means for compensation of the initial temperature and random temperature fluctuations with a resultant gain in signal-to-noise ratio. The successive differentiation action of the computer has been nearly "perfect," so that the two breaks (blank or starting and end point of the titration curve can be located with the precision of 0.2% by observing two peak points on the second derivative curve. Arrangements useful in obtaining such a good derivative response that is exactly proportional to the input signal are discussed. Plots of the enthalphogram and its derivatives are presented, with the results of several titrations used to evaluate the performance of the apparatus.

The state of carrier-free yttrium-90 has been studied by filtration method with membrane filters. The studies include the adsorption ratio of carrier-free yttrium-90 on membrane filters by the change of PH, concentration of yttrium-90, and the pore size of member filters. The adsorption followed to Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The adsorption mechanism was proposed by the adsorption of transient state as an ionic form of $Y^{3+}$, and the experimental results were explained satisfactorily by the proposal. The adsorbed state of yttrium was present in the forms of yttrium such as $Y^{3+},\;Y(OH)^{3+},\;Y(OH)^{2+},\;Y(OH)^+_3,\;and\;Y(OH)_3$,and the existing ratios of the forms of yttrium were sharply changed by PH. It seems to be valid tha the carrier-free yttrium-90 exists mostly in $Y^{3+}$ state.
