Dow99Ca350 (Dowex monosphere 99Ca/350 separation resin), MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC are ion-exchange resins, and primarily used to separate sugars, and all of these resins have poly styrene DVB backbone, and sulfonyl group. These resins are already used to separate sugars continuously at sugar industry at constant temperature. These resins are used in experiments for understanding temperature effect on retention or adsorption behavior. Using Dow99Ca350, swelling test, porosity test, pulse test, and frontal analysis at various temperatures were performed. In the cases of MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC, the effect of temperature variation was verified by pulse test. The experimental results are shown that Dow99Ca350, MFG-220, and Finex CS-10GC, which are commercial resins for sugar separation, are stable to temperature variation because the maximum change of retention time of fructose, and glucose are 1.76, and 3.37％ respectively.

Continuous column chromatographic separation of lysozyme from egg white was investigated. A weak acid type cation exchange resin, Duolite C-464, was used because of high lysozyme recovery and ease of column operation in this experiment. The resin was equilibrated at $pH\;7.9{\pm}0.1$ in Na+form. Continuous lysozyme separation was processed by repeating cycles(one cycle : resin equilibration, flow egg white, rinse, lysozyme elution) in automated preparative Liquid Chromatography(LC) system(column size ; i.d. 50 mm, resin bed volumn ; 1020 ml). At comparison of UV levels in rinse end point and elution end point of every cycle, the UV levels of rinse end point are maintained below 30% for 19 cycles and that of elution end point are also maintained below 30% for 17 cycles, stably, but was increased above 50% after 18 cycle. That indicated the eluting ability of lysozyme was reduced conspicuously after 18 cycle in continuous cycling process. The recovery of lysozyme was maintained above 90% from one to 17 cycle, but was decreased to 72% and 65% in 18 cycle and 19 cycle, respectively.

The species and equilibria of uranium and vanadium have been investigated in the various concentration of perchloric, hydrochloric and sulfuric acid by anion exchange chromatography. In the concentration range of $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.5M$ hydrochloric and $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.5M$ perchloric acid, uranium seems to be $UO_2^{2+}$species and in higher concentration than 0.5M hydrochloric acid $UO_2^{2+}$seems to form the chloride complex ion as $UO_2Cl^+$, $UO_2Cl_2$, $UO_2Cl_3^-$ and $UO_2Cl_4^{2-}$ according to the increase of the hydrochloric acid concentration. In the dilute(0.01N) sulfuric acid the adsorbability of uranium on anion exchange resin is strong and then decreases with increasing the sulfuric acid concentration. From this result we conclude that $UO_26{2+}$ formed the complex ion as $UO_2(SO_4)_2^{2-}$. In the perchloric acid of $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.5N$ concentration the existing equilibrium of vanadium and its constant calculated at $20^{\circ}C$ is $1.9{\times}108$ for $H_2V_{10}O_{28}^{4-}$ + $14H^+$ = $10VO_2^+ + 8H_2O$. The elution behaviors of vanadium in the hydrochloric and sulfuric acid are smiliar to those in perchloric acid.

In order to investigate the feasibility of 30K protein from silkworm (Bombyx mori) hemolymph (SH) on the proliferation of human cells, a simple separating procedure by anion-exchange chromatography system with Q-Sepharose fast flow gel was established. The 30K protein was eluted with an optimized condition of 0.16 M sodium chloride in 20 mM tris buffer (pH 9.0). The separated 30K protein at three concentrations of 0.04, 0.12, and 0.4 mg/ml was added to the culture medium with various human cells, such as chondrocytes, periosteum-derived cells, and MRC-5 cells, and their growth rates were measured. The cell growth rate at protein concentration of 0.4 mg/ml was always higher than that without 30K protein in all human cells tested, suggesting that the 30K protein has positive effect on the increase of the life span of human cells.

Lysozyme is an enzyme which has the ability to lyse bacteria such as Micrococcus lysodeikticus or gram positive and gram negative bacteria by hydrolyzing in the peptidoglycan layer of the bacterial cell wall. Lysozyme is abundantly contained in an egg white. In order to obtain lysozyme from egg white, we used Bio-rex ion exchange chromatography and can identify the exist of lysozyme by SDS-PAGE and protein assay.

This study was designed to investigate the antioxidative activity of enzymatic hydrolysates prepared from defatted anchor muscle by various pretenses. In these hydrolysates, the hydrolysates derived from pepsin and Protamex showed the strongest antioxidative activity. Enzymatic hydrolysates also showed the synergistic effects on antioxidative activity of $\alpha-tocopherol$, and almost no change in butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Peroxidation of metal ions $(Fe^{3+},\;Cu^{2+})$ was inhibited by enzymatic hydrolysates. Ten fractions (P-1 to P-10) were fractionated from the peptic hydrolysates by Amberlite IR-120 and Bio-gel P-2 column chromatography. The maximum antioxidative activity was observed in the traction P-2 (fraction No. $26\~31$). In amino acid composition of before and after hydrolysis of defatted anchovy muscle and the active fractions (P-2), contents of aspartic arid and glutamic acid were increased, but alanine, cysteine, tyrosine and phenylalanine were decreased.

No matter how small amount of heavy metals it may be cause skin allergies through percutaneous adsorption when existing in cosmetic products as impurities. In order to develop a highly sensitive method for simultaneous determination of $Pb^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Cd^{2+},\;and\;Mn^{2+}$ in coloring agents and cosmetic products with rapidity and accuracy, we carried out the determination on ion chromatography. All of these metals are well separated through a bifunctional ion-exchange column(IonPac CS5A) and detected by post-column reaction and spectrophotometric detection. The calibration graphs are linear($r^2>0.999$) in the range $0.1{\sim}1000{\mu}g/mL$. Detection limits for 200 ${\mu}L$ of sample solution are at the level of ${\mu}g/L$, which is sufficient for judging whether the product is safe or not. The relative standard deviations(RSDs) of the retention time and the peak area are less than 0.21 and 1.24%, respectively. The recovery rates are $97{\sim}104%$. The new method was applied to analyze the amount of heavy metals which were contained in 22 cosmetic products and 11 coloring agents.

A bacterium producing a large amount of chitinolytic enzyme was isolated from the intestinal tract of earthworm. The isolate was identified as Bacillus licheniformis by 16S ribosomal RNA analysis and designated as B. licheniformis GA9. The enzyme was purified by 40-60% ammonium sulfate precipitation, diethyl-aminoethyl groups exchange chromatography, and gel filtration chromatography. The molecular weight was estimated to be 52.1 kDa and the N-terminal amino acid sequence was D-S-G-K-N-G-K-I-I-R-Y-YP-I-R. The optimum activity of the purified chitinolytic enzyme was shown at pH 5.0 and $40^{\circ}C$, and the enzyme was stable in the ranges of $20-50^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0-6.0. Enzyme activity was increased by $Co^{2+}$, while it was inhibited by $Cu^{2+}$ and $Fe^{2+}$. But it was recovered by chelating metals with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values of the purified enzyme were 4.02 mg/ml and 0.52 mg/min, respectively. The chitinolytic enzyme characterized in this study has potential applications in areas such as biotechnology, biomedicine, agriculture, and nutrition.

We have isolated two anticoagulant polysaccharides from an acidic extract of Codium fragile. The purification was conducted using three consecutive chromatographies of DEAE-Toyopearl 650C, Sephadex G-100 (G-75), and Sepharose CL-6B by measuring activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). The two purified anticoagulant polysaccharides, CF-1-VIa-1 and CF-1-VIIa-1, were found to be nearly homogenous on HPLC using a gel permeation column and appeared to have molecular weights of about 80,000 Da and 40,000 Da, respectively. The polysaccharides consisted mainly of arabinose and galactose in a molar ratio of about 2 : 1, and also comprised 12-13% of sulfates at their constituent sugars. CF-1-VIa-1 and CF-1-VIIa-1 inhibited blood coagulation via both the intrinsic and the extrinsic pathways. The polysaccharides unlike heparin showed an inhibitory activity on thrombin when a pure fibrinogen without antithrombin III was used as a substrate. Structural modifications using sulfation and desulfation affected the anticoagulant activities directly, suggesting that the content of sulfate plays an important role in the blood coagulation cascade. The polysaccharides may inhibit some proteases involved in the blood coagulation cascade, judging from the independence of calcium concentrations in their anticoagulant activity.

[ $\beta$ ]-Galactosidase was extracted from the internal organ of sea urchin, Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus The enzyme was purified 384.6-fold over the crude extract by the sequential chromatographic methods including DEAE-Sephadex A-25, CM-Cellulose, and Con A-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography with a recovery $1.26\%$. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated approximately 94 kDa as monomeric term by SDS-PAGE and Sephadex G-150 gel chromatography. The maximum enzymatic activity was observed at pH 3.0 and $50^{\circ}C$ but the one was stable over the ph range or 3.0$\~$5.0 and below $37^{\circ}C$. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values against PNPG (P-nitrophenyl $\beta$-D-galactopyranoside) were 15.0 mM and 214 $\mu$mole/min per mg protein, respectively. The enzymatic activity was activated by $Ba^{2+}$, but significantly inhibited by $DEP,\;Hg^{2+},\;Sn^{2+}$ and galactose.
