We have investigated the effect of organic thin film on the driving voltage of OLED (organic light emitting diode) by inserting a 5 nm thick 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP) or triphenylphosphineoxide ($Ph_3PO$) between tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum ($Alq_3$) electron transport layer and 4,4'-bis(2,2'-diphyenylvinyl)-1,1'-biphenyl (DPVBi) emission layer. The device with 5 nm thick $Ph_3PO$ layer exhibited higher maximum current efficiency and lower driving voltage than the device with BCP layer, resulting from better electron injection from $Alq_3$ to DPVBi in the device with $Ph_3PO$ layer.

A $\beta$-Galactosidase producing strain, Alkalophilic Bacillus sp, YS-309, has been isolated from soil sample. The strain was capable of producing large amount of intracellular $\beta$-galactosidase in the alkaline media rather than in the neutral media. The preferable medium composition has been determined to be as follows: 0.5% lactose, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.5% soybean meal, 0.1% KH$_2$PO$_4$, 0.02% MgSO$_4$7$H_2O$ 0,0.6% Na$_2$CO$_3$ (pH 9.9). The enzyme was produced by lactose or IPTG as in-ducer. But both Enzyme synthesis and cellular growth were decreased when lactose was added at the higher concentrations than 1.5% (v/v).

Effects of various kinds of sawdusts, supplements and culture conditions on activities of several enzymes such as protease, phenoloxidase and cellulase produced from mycelium of P. ostreatus grown on sawdust medium were studied and the results are as follows; Higher specific activity of these enzymes was observed when oak tree sawdust and poplar tree sawdust were supplemented with rice bran or wheat bran at rate of 30%, 20% and 10% in total volume respectively. Higher total activities of protease, phenoloxidase and cellulase were observed at 70% of the moisture contents of culture media, while lower activity of these enzymes was observed with 40% moisture contents of sawdust culture medium. The pH 4 and 9 of the sawdust media appeared to be optimum pH for the. production of protease while pH 5 and 7 were optimal for the production of phenoloxidase. The pH 6 of the sawdust medium was optimal for the production of cellulase. The optimum incubating temperature for the production of protease, phenoloxidase and cellulase was $25^{\circ}C$. Higher total activities of protease and phenoloxidase were observed when culture medium was added with wood vinegar at the control, and 0.5% for cellulase.

The effective p.eduction of 5'-GMP(5'-Guanylic acid) by enzymatic conversion of 5'-XMP(5'-Xanthyic acid) was investigated. The Iyophilized Brevibacterium ammoniagenes ATCC 19216 which were used as the XHP aminase source, was immobilized by entrapping in K-carrageenan, agar, polyacrylamide or Ca-alginate. $3\%$ K-carrageenan was selected as the most suitable matrix. In the production of 5'-GMP using the free cells of 3. ammoniagenes ATCC 19216, the optimum conditions were $42^{\circ}C$, PH 7.0, 100mg/ml glucose, 120mg/ml cell ,8mg/ml $MgSO_4\cdot7H_2O$, 5mg/ml POESA, 5mg/ml phytic acid. Under the conditions, $94.5\%$ of 5'-GMP was converted within 8 hours. In the production of 5'-GMP using the immobilized whole cells of B. ammoniagenes ATCC 19216, the optimum conditions were $37^{\circ}C$, pH 7.5, 50mg/ml glucose, 1mg/ml $KH_2PO_4$, 10mg/ml phytic acid, 60mg/ml cell, 8mg/ml $MgSO_4\;\cdot\;7H_2O$, 5mg/ml POESA. Under the conditions, $64.7\%$ of 5'-GMP was converted within 40 hours.

Acid drainage occurs when sulfide minerals are exposed to an oxidizing environment. The objective of this study was to examine the optimum condition for creating a phosphate coating on standard pyrite surfaces for reduction of pyrite oxidation. The solution of $10^{-2}M\;KH_2PO_4,\;10^{-2}M\;H_2O_2$ was identified as the best phosphate coating agent for the reduction of pyrite oxidation. The formation of an iron phosphate coating on pyrite surfaces was confirmed with ore microscope and scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The temperature did not significantly affect the formation of phosphate coating on the surface of pyrite. However, the phosphate coating was less stable at higher temperature than at lower temperature. The phosphate coating was quitely stable at wide range of pH and $H_2O_2$ concentration. The less than $3.4\%$ of phosphate was dissolved at pH 2.79 and 10.64 and less than $1.0\%$ of phosphate was dissolved at 0.1M $H_2O_2$. On the basis of these results, the phosphate coating can effectively reduce the negative environmental impact of acid rock drainage.

The effects on deacidification of citrus fruits produced at early harvesting season for juice products were examined by heating treatment of raw fruits and electrodialysis of juice. Weight and total acidities were decreased by heating treatment for 40 hr at $25^{\circ}C,\;30^{\circ}C,\;35^{\circ}C\;and\;40^{\circ}C$, but $^{\circ}Brix$ and pH increased Sugar to acid ratio also increased. Total acidities were decreased from 1.25 (Oct30, 2004), 1.24 (Nov.5, 2004), 0.99 (Nov.13, 2004) and 0.98% (Nov.19, 2004) to 0.48 (Oct30, 2004), 0.51 (Nov.05, 2004), 0.37 (Nov.13, 2004) and 0.42% (Nov.19, 2004) by electrodialysis for 100 min respectively, and $^{\circ}Brix$ also slightly decreased, but solid to acid ratio was increased as a result. However pH and color remained almost unchanged by electodialysis. Also, free sugar contents of citrus juice little were changed, but organic acid content were decreased fairly. Narirutin and hesperidin content among flavonoids were slightly decreased by electrodialysis, but they were not significantly different. $K^+,\;PO_4^{2-},\;SO_4^{2-}\;and\;Cl^-$ content were decreased by electrodialysis, and $K^+$ contents decreased by more than 80% However, $Na^+$ consent was increased by about 2 times. Total polyphenol contents and electron donating abilities were decreased a little by electrodialysis but nitrite scavenging abilities were little changed. By acceptability test citrus juice prepared by electrodialysis for 100 min was superior to original citrus juice.
