Chromium(Ⅵ) compound, [$C_9H_7$NH]$_2Cr_2O_7$ has been prepared by the reaction of isoquinoline with chromium trioxide under the presence of water. [$C_9H_7$NH]$_2Cr_2O_7$ is nonhydroscopic and dissolved in water very well. Structure of [$C_9H_7$NH]$_2Cr_2O_7$ is identified by FTIR spectra and elemental analysis data. The ability of [$C_9H_7$NH]$_2Cr_2O_7$ for the oxidation of alcohols were examined in methylene chloride. [$C_9H_7$NH]$_2Cr_2O_7$ was found as efficient oxidizing agent for the conversion of allyl, primary and secondary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones.

A new amperometric biosensor has been developed for the detection of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$). The sensor was fabricated through the one-step deposition of a biocomposite layer onto a glassy carbon electrode at neutral pH. The biocomposite, as a $H_2O_2$ sensing element, was prepared by the electrochemical deposition of a homogeneous mixture of graphene oxide, aniline, and horseradish peroxidase. The experimental results clearly demonstrated of that the sensor possessed high electrocatalytic activity and responded to $H_2O_2$ with a stable and rapid manners. Scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and amperometry were performed to optimize the characteristics of the sensor and to evaluate its sensing chemistry. The sensor exhibited a linear response to $H_2O_2$ in the range of 10 to $500{\mu}M$ concentrations, and its detection limit was calculated to be $1.3{\mu}M$. The proposed sensing-chemistry strategy and the sensor format were simple, cost-effective, and feasible for analysis of "food-grade $H_2O_2$" in food samples.

Surface renewable nano-$RuO_2$/poly(methyl methacrylate) polymeric composite pH electrodes were prepared. The composite electrode with 53 wt% of nano-$RuO_2$ showed similar good response characteristics to nano-$IrO_2$ composite electrode reported earlier. It showed response slope of -58.7 mV/pH, response time of <1 s, surface renewability of $-57.0{\pm}0.3mV/pH$ (n=5) and long time stability for a month as well as low interferences but high interferences by electrochemically active species like $I^-$ and $Fe(CN){_6}^{3-}$. However, the response slope and time became worse at higher pH than 9 compared to those of nano-$IrO_2$ composite electrodes possibly due to the difference of physical properties resulting from higher content of nano-$RuO_2$ in polymeric composite matrix.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of bifidobacteria on the growth and Caco-2 cell-adherence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 .Dur-ing momo-culture of E. coli O157:H7 and mixed culture with Bifidobacterium infantis K9, pH viable cell count, and ammonia concentration were measured Co-cultivation of E. coli O157:H7 with bifidobacteria. producing acidic metabolites rapidly decreased the viable cell count of E. coli O157:H7 In addition rapid decrease of ammo- nia concentration was observed during mixed culture after 8 hrs incubation compared to single culture of E. coli O157:H7 Therefore it is likely that bifidobacteria assimilate ammonia produced by E. coli O157:H7 P4 B, infantis K9 showed quite similar adherence on the Caco-2 cells in either case. On the other hand adherence of E. coli O157:H7 decreased from 2.6% to 1.86% when B infantis K9 was adhered to Caco-2 cell 2 hrs prior to the application of E. coli O157:H7 In conclusion in adherence of E coli O157:H7 to Caco -2 cell was inhibited by competition of its binding to the adherence site with bifidobacteria. In addition inhibitory effects of bifidobacteria on E coli O157:H7 appeared to be much higher with increae of the number of bifidobacteria and its ability of adherence to Caco-2 cells.

We studied the electrochromic properties of hydrated amorphous ruthenium oxide ($RuO_2{\cdot}xH_2O$) thin films using in-situ Raman spectroscopy during electrochemical charging/discharging cycles. We have found that the principal effect of hydrogen insertion into $RuO_2{\cdot}xH_2O$ is reduction of $Ru^{4+}\;to\;Ru^{3+}$, and not formation of new bonds involving hydrogen. We compared the changes in the Raman spectrum of a gasochromic $Pd/RuO_2{\cdot}xH_2O$ film as it is exposed to hydrogen gas with that of electrochemical hydrogen insertion. We tested the changes in the optical transmission of the $Pd/RuO_2{\cdot}xH_2O$ film when exposed to hydrogen gas.

Rates of $H_2$ uptake into $Pt/MoO_3$ were measured for the noncalcined and $200^{\circ}C$ calcined $Pt/MoO_3$. Amount of $H_2$ uptake for $200^\circ{C}$calcined $Pt/MoO_3$ was greater than the amount of noncalcined $Pt/MoO_3$. From these two experiments, it was found that the rates of $H_2$ desorption were proportional to the increase of desorption temperature. XPS demonstrated that Cl reduced more faster in ITR after calcination at $200^{\circ}C$. This inducd smaller amount of residual chlorine at adlineation sites between Pt and $MoO_3$ substrates. This resulted in opening the more channel of hydrogen pathway into more $MoO_3$particles and controled the kinetics of hydrogen uptake.

CuO nanotubes are synthesized using $TeO_2$ nanorod templates for application to $H_2S$ gas sensors. $TeO_2$ nanorod templates were synthesized by using the VS method through thermal evaporation. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction showed that the synthesized nanotubes were monoclinic-structured polycrystalline CuO with diameter and wall thickness of approximately 100~300 nm and 5~10 nm, respectively. The CuO nanotube sensor showed responses of 136~325% for the $H_2S$ concentration of 0.1~5 ppm at room temperature. These response values are approximately twice as high as that of the CuO nanowire sensor for the same concentrations of $H_2S$ gas. Along with the investigation of the performance of the sensors, the mechanisms of $H_2S$ gas sensing of the CuO nanotubes are also discussed in this study.

Oxidation of $[Mo_3O_4(C_2O_4)_3(H_2O)_3]^{2-}$ with HCr$O_4^-$ yields the molybdenum(Ⅳ) complex, $[Mo_2O_5(C_2O_4)_2(H_2O)_2]^{2-}$. Stoichiometry for the reaction of $[Mo_3O_4(C_2O_4)_3(H_2O)_3]^{2-}$ with HCr$O_4^-$ are expressed as $2Mo_3^{IV} + 4Cr^{VI} {\to} 3Mo_2^{VI} + 4Cr^{III}$. Observed rate constants are dependent on hydrogen ion concentration. The kinetic data are consistent with a mechanism in which three successive single-electron steps convert $Cr^{VI}$to $Cr^{III}$ by way of intermediate $Cr^V$ and $Cr^{IV}$. Detailed mechanisms are presented and discussed.

Numerical study with momentum-balanced boundary conditions has been conducted to grasp chemical effects of added $CO_{2}$ and $H_{2}O$ to fuel- and oxidizer-sides on flame structure and NO emission behavior in $CH_{4}$/Air counterflow diffusion flames. The dilution with $H_{2}O$ results in significantly higher flame temperatures and NO emission, but dilution with $CO_{2}$ has much more chemical effects than that with $H_{2}O$. Maximum reaction rate of principal chain branching reaction due to chemical effects decreases with added $CO_{2}$. but increases with added $H_{2}O$. The NO emission behavior is closely related to the production rate of OH, CH and N. The OH radical production rate increases with added $H_{2}O$ but those of CH, N decrease. On the other hand the production rates of OR CH and N decrease with added $CO_{2}$. It is found that NO emission behavior is considerably affected by chemical effects of added $CO_{2}$ and $H_{2}O$.

${\beta}-Carboline$ alkaloids including harmaline have been shown to inhibit enzymatically or nonenzymatically induced-lipid peroxidation of microsomes. This study was done to explore the antioxidant ability of harmaline and harmalol on the oxidative injuries of hyaluronic acid, lipid and collagen by $Fe^{2+}$ and $H_2O_2$. Their scavenging actions on reactive oxygen species were also examined. Harmaline, harmalol, superoxide dismutase, catalase and DMSO inhibited both degradation of hyaluronic acid by $Fe^{2+}$ and $H_2O_2$ and lipid peroxidation of microsomes by $Fe^{2+}$. In these reactions, DABCO inhibited degradation of hyaluronic acid but did not affect lipid peroxidation. ${\beta}-Carbolines$ inhibited degradation of cartilage collagen by $Fe^{2+}$, $H_2O_2$ and ascorbic acid. The reduction of ferricytochrome c due to autoxidation of $Fe^{2+}$, which is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, was not affected by harmaline and harmalol. They also did not have a decomposing action on $H_2O_2$. Hydroxyl radical production in the presence of $Fe^{2+}$ and $H_2O_2$ was inhibited by harmaline, harmalol and DMSO. Harmaline and harmalol may inhibit the oxidative injuries of hyaluronic acid, lipid and cartilage collagen by $Fe^{2+}$ and $H_2O_2$ through their scavenging actions on reactive oxygen species, OH and probably iron-oxygen complexes and exert antioxidant abilities.
