Condensation of 4-amino-5-mercapto-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazole (1) with cyanogen bromide gives 6-amino-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole (2) which on condensation with chloranil yields 3,9-di-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-6,14-dioxo-bis-(s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-b]imidazo[4,5-b]cyclohexane]-5a,6a-diene) (3). 3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-b]imidazo[4,5-b]quinoxaline (4) is obtained by a similar condensation of (2) with 2,3-dichloroquinoxaline. The reaction of (2) with $\alpha$-haloketones followed by bromination affords 7-aryl-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[2,3-c]-s-triazoles (5) and their 6-bromo analogues 6 respectively. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were established on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, $^1H$-NMR. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of all newly synthesized compounds have also been evaluated.

We constructed hybrid plasmids to allow controlled and extracellular production of human alpha-interferon in Escherichia coli. The hybrid plassmids were constructed by transferring alpha-lFN gene from plasmid Hif-2h which has the alpha-lFN gene at PstI restriction site of pBR322, to plasmids pIN -IIIB3 and pIN-IIIC3 at restriction sites between HindIII and BamHI. Plasmids pIN-IIIB3 and pIN-IIIC3 carry E. coli lipoprotein promoter, lac promoter and operator in tandem. The plasmids also have lacl genes which encode for lac repressors, which allows controlled expression of genes cloned to the plasmids by using of inducer IPTG. Lipoprotein signal sequence is located just ahead of cloning sites of the plasmids, which helps cells to excrete or secrete cloned gene products. Plasmid pUC9 was used as a intermediate vector for transferring of alpha-lFN gene from Hif-2h to pIN vectors in order to solve the problem of different restriction sites between Hif-2h and pIN vectors.

${\alpha}$-Galactosidase was partially purified from the culture filtrate of Debaryomyces sp. by Mannobiose-Sepharose affinity column chromatography. The galactosidase exhibited maximum activity at pH 4.0 and $60^{\circ}C$, and was stable in the pH and temperature ranges of 3 to 4.5 and 30 to $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by $Hg^{2+}\;and\;Ag^{2+}$. The enzyme activity was not affected considerably by treatment with other metal compounds. The enzyme hydrolyzed melibiose to galactose and glucose, raffinose to galactose and sucrose, and $Gal^3Man_3$ ($6^3-{\alpha}$-galactosyl-1,4-mannotriose) to galactose and mannotriose. On the contrary, it could not hydrolyze $Gal^3Man_4$ ($6^3-{\alpha}$-galactosyl-1,4-mannotetraose).

This work investigated the plasma-catalytic decomposition of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and the behavior of the byproduct compounds over monolith-supported metal oxide catalysts. Iron oxide ($Fe_2O_3$) or copper oxide (CuO) was loaded on a monolithic porous ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ support, which was placed inside the coaxial electrodes of plasma reactor. The IPA decomposition efficiency itself hardly depended on the presence and type of metal oxides because the rate of plasma-induced decomposition was so fast, but the behavior of byproduct formation was largely affected by them. The concentrations of the unwanted byproducts, including acetone, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, methane, carbon monoxide, etc., were in order of $Fe_2O_3/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ < $CuO/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ < ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ from low to high. Under the condition (flow rate: $1L\;min^{-1}$; IPA concentration: 5,000 ppm; $O_2$ content: 10%; discharge power: 47 W), the selectivity towards $CO_2$ was about 40, 80 and 95% for ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, $CuO/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ and $Fe_2O_3/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, respectively, indicating that $Fe_2O_3/{\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ is the most effective for plasma-catalytic oxidation of IPA. Unlike plasma-alone processes in which tar-like products formed from volatile organic compounds are deposited, the present plasma-catalyst hybrid system did not exhibit such a phenomenon, thus retaining the original catalytic activity.

The metabolism of testosterone ($17{\beta}$-hydroxy-androst-4-en-3-one) was confirmed in horse after a single intramuscular administration of testosterone cypionate (750 mg). Solvent extracts of urine obtained with enzymatic hydrolysis and methanolysis were analyzed by GC/MS after oxime t-butyldimethylsilyl (oxime-TBDMS) derivatization. The structures of four urinary metabolite after testosterone administration in horse were determined based on EI mass spectra and $5{\alpha}$-androstane-$3{\beta}$, $17{\alpha}$-diol and $5{\alpha}$-androstane-$3{\beta}$-ol-17-one as major was confirmed with authentic standard. Also the concentrations of $5{\alpha}$-androstane-$3{\beta}$, $17{\alpha}$-diol, $5{\alpha}$-androstane-$3{\beta}$, $17{\beta}$-diol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), $5{\alpha}$-androstane-$3{\beta}$-ol-17-one and testosterone were determined in the urine of normal subjects and the urine after administration. The recovery and detection limit in the most drugs were 86.3~94.7% and 1~3 ppb, respectively. Correlation coefficients for calibration were in the range of 0.984~0.999. Excretion profile of testosterone presents the rapid and large increasement up to maximum values at days 5 after administration and the slow regression. The relative ratios of testosterone, its metabolites over DHEA were determined for indication of testosterone administration in horse doping.

In our ongoing search for structurally interesting and biologically active metabolites from Korean wild mushrooms, bioassay-guided fractionation and a chemical investigation of the MeOH extracts of the fruiting bodies of the mushroom Naematoloma fasciculare resulted in the isolation of three ergosterol derivatives, (22E,24R)-ergosta-7,22-diene-$3{\beta}$,$5{\alpha}$,$6{\beta}$,$9{\alpha}$-tetrol (1), (22E,24R)-$5{\alpha}$,$8{\alpha}$-epidioxyergosta-6,22-diene-$3{\beta}$-ol 3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucopyranoside (2), and (22E,24R)-$5{\alpha}$,$8{\alpha}$-epidioxyergosta-6,9,22-triene-$3{\beta}$-ol 3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucopyranoside (3). The structures of 1 - 3 were determined by comparison of their spectroscopic and physical data with reported values. The isolated steroid derivatives 1 and 3 were reported for the first time from this mushroom. Compounds 1 - 3 were tested for their cytotoxic activities against four human cancer cell lines (A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, and HCT-15).
