This study aims to propose evaluation methods of chemical washing performance and estimate the washing capability by flowing detergent/water solution for application to home appliances such as dishwashers. Standard pollutant is stearic acid. A numerical study is also tried using a SIMPLER code. Preliminary experiments are performed by varying the concentration and temperature of the solution. From the pre-experiments, 10 minute pre-curing time is found to be necessary to remove the stearic acid. Stoichiometric ratio and detergent consumption coefficient of reaction between the detergent and stearic are estimated following a proposed method. Washing experiments of pollutant to compare with the numerical results are performed. The relative errors between the experimental and the numerical results with pre-curing time included are less than 7%. In conclusion, important mechanisms of chemical washing are revealed and methods of predicting washing performance are well established.

Transesterification reactions were carried out with myo-inositol and five fatty acid methyl esters such as methyl laurate, methyl myristate, methyl palmitate, methyl stearate and methyl oleate in the dimethylsulfoxide solvent. Their products were separated by both thin layer chromatography and column chromatography, and myo-inositol monoesters were quantitatively separated by counter current distribution. We measured their surface tension, foaming power and emulsifying power, determined critical micelle concentrations by the color method, and evaluated their hydrophilic-lipophilic balance. The results show that myo-inositol monoesters exhibit surface activites.

Fatty acids were prepared from oil from Korean Panax ginseng root and were determined by a high performance liquid chromatography. The major fatty acids in the Korean Panax ginseng root oil were found to be linoleic 42.62%, palmitic 29.85%, oleic 12.31%, stearic 7.88% and linolenic acid 7.34%.

Nonionic sorbitan monostearate have been successfully prepared by esterification using 1,4-sorbitan and stearic acid. 1,4-sorbitan were prepared using D-sorbitol and acid catalyst at solvent-free conditions. The synthesized surfactants were characterized by NMR and FT-IR. We also investigated the effect of temperature, pressure and catalyst on the synthesis of nonionic sorbitan monostearate. The yields of 1,4-sorbitan were 90% at $160^{\circ}C$ under 160 mmHg vacuum, and the yields of nonionic sorbitan monostearate were 92% at $230^{\circ}C$ under 60 mmHg vacuum.

We were investigated by cyclic voltammetry to the stability through the electrochemical characteristics of Langmuir-Blodgett films mixed with myristic acid and stearic acid. Fatty acid mixture monolayer LB films was deposited by the LB method on the indium tin oxide(ITO) glass. The electrochemical properties was measured by cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system in 0.01 N $NaClO_4$ solution. The measuring range is continuously oxidized to 1650 mV, with an initial potential of -1350 mV was reduced. Scanning rates of 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 mV/s was set. As a result, LB monolayer films of fatty acid mixture was appeared on irreversible processes by the oxidation current from the cyclic voltammogram. Diffusion coefficient (D) of fatty acid mixture was calculated $7.9{\times}10^{-2}cm^2s^{-1}$ at 0.01 N $NaClO_4$ solution.

The degermed Japonica and J/Indica brown rites were successively milled to give 4.4%(fraction I), 4.7%(fraction II) and 5.9%(fraction III) yield of flour, with the remaining as residual kernel. The amino acid composition of the protein in the milled fractions was similar, except serine and histidine. With some amino acids, particularly phenylalanie, glycine and isoleucine, differences among varieties were much greater than among fractions of the same rice. The content of lysine was the highest in fractions I and II, whereas isoleucine showed the opposite trend to lysine. The first and second limiting amino acids of all fractions were lysine and threonine, respectively. No varietal differences in the distribution of fatty acids within the kernel were observed.

This study was conducted to compare the contents of fatty acids and phytosterols in Glehnia littoralis according to habitat areas. In leaves of G. littoralis collected from Yeong-deok, fatty acids contents was higher than that of the other aeras, while there was no difference in contents of roots and seeds according to habitat areas. Average phytosterols contents of 10 habitat areas were $3.8{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ (campestreol) $16.8{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ (stigmasterol) and $3.7{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ ($\beta$-sitosterol), respectively. G. littoralis collected from Uljin showed the highest phytosterols contents than that of the other aeras.

In the present work, the interaction of fatty acid with vesicle membrane of phospholipids was investigated using 3 different kinds of fatty acids such as stearic acid (SA), oleic acid (OA) and linoleic acid (LA). Basically, the same trend has been found in 3 fatty acid systems. The addition of fatty acid produced a close packing of liposome due to the penetration of fatty acid molecules into liposome vesicles, which resulted in a decrease in size and an increase in zeta potential of liposome. However, excessive addition of fatty acid produced a transition from liposomes to aggregates of lipid particles having polymorphic structure. The membrane fluidity, characterized by measuring membrane deformability and fluorescence anisotropy ratio of liposomes, was in good agreement with measurement results of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and particle size. The minimum size and closest packing of liposome with SA, OA and LA were found when the molar ratios of fatty acid to lecithin were 0.70, 0.50, and 0.25 respectively.

In this study, anti-foaming agents of a fatty acid methyl esters was synthesized and confirmed by FT-IR and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopy. Synthesized material of characteristic of -C=O group having a $1740cm^{-1}$ and -C-O group $1175cm^{-1}$ peak by using FT-IR, and it was confirmed that k. Surface tensions were measured by surface tensiometer CBVP-43. Their surface tension values was 17.7 to 21 dyne/cm. Anti-foaming abilities in the SLS solution was measured through the Ross-Miles method. Performance of the 4 type of anti-foaming agent was determined and the best anti-foaming agent was prepared using stearic acid methyl.

The seeds of Torreya nucifera, which were shown to contain high level of oil, were characterized to evaluate their possible utilization as oil source. Oil was extracted by compression from the seeds and its physico-chemical properties and, total fatty acid composition were determined. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Proximate components of the seeds were shown to be: moisture, 12.3% ; crude protein, 9.46%; crude fat, 54.29 %; fiber, 5.28 %; ash, 2.13%. 2. Physico-chemical characteristics of the seed oil were determined as follows: specific gravity 0.92, refractive index 1.470, iodine value 127, saponification value 182.2, acid value 9.5, ester value 172.7. 3.
