Boron exists in dilute concentrations in sea water, ground water and waste waters. Reactive liquid extraction can be used for removing boron to make the treated water suitable for drinking and irrigation, with its final concentration less than 0.5 ppm. The results of equilibrium experiments are reported on the removal of boron using 2-butyl-2-ethyl-1, 3-propanediol (BEPD as a nonionic carrier) in sunflower oil, a non-traditional solvent. The results of removal of boron from aqueous solutions in the concentration range 0.5-20 ppm are presented. It is shown that this new liquid membrane system, is able to remove boron from ground waters at their natural pH of 6-8 (without any chemical addition for pH adjustments). The removal efficiency is good when the process is upgraded to a hollow-fibre membrane contactor and approximately 45% boron can be removed in a single-stage contact. There are additional advantages of this new approach that includes reduced operational health and safety and environmental issues. The results reported here provide guidelines to the development of boron removal process using renewable, biodegradable, safe and cheap solvent system such as sunflower oil.

$Pb(Zr_{0.52}, Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (PZT) thick films as an actuating material with conducting oxides, $(La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}) CoO_3$ (LSCO), have been fabricated by sol-gel method for Optical Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) devices, in which PZT/LSCO/SiO2 structures were used. In order to improve the adhesion to LSCO solution in order to enhance the wetting behavior of a water-based LSCO precursor solution and further to improve the adhesion between LSCO and $SiO_2$ layers. PZT films were made using 1-3 propanediol based precursor solution which has a high viscosity and a boiling point appropriate for thick film fabrication. In the precursor solution, Ti-propoxied and Zr-propoxied are partially substituted with acetylacetone to achieve the solution stability while maintaining reactivity. Crack free PZT films (0.8~1$\mu\textrm{m}$) have been successfully fabricated at crystallization temperatures above $700^{\circ}C$. Dielectric constants and dielectric losses of the PZT films were 900~1200and 2~5%, respectively. Piezoelectric constant $d_{33}$ of the PZT films constrained by a substrate were 200pm/V at 100kV/cm.

A stacked high-voltage (900 V) Al electrolytic capacitor made with ZrO₂ coated anode foils, which has not been studied so far, is realized and the effects of Zr-Al-O composite layer on the electric properties are discussed. Etched Al foils coated with ZrO₂ sol are anodized in 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (MPD)-boric acid electrolyte. The anodized Al foils are assembled with stacked structure to prepare the capacitor. The capacitance and dissipation factor of the capacitor with ZrO₂ coated anode foils increase by 41 % and decrease by 50 %, respectively, in comparison with those of Al anode foils. Zr-Al-O composite dielectric layer is formed between separate crystalline ZrO₂ with high dielectric constant and amorphous Al₂O₃ with high ionic resistivity. This work suggests that the formation of a composite layer by coating valve metal oxide on etched Al foil surface and anodizing it in MPD-boric acid electrolyte is a promising approach for high voltage and volume efficiency of capacitors.

This paper investigated that the functional group and chemical structure of additives affect ice adhesion in aqueous solutions cooling with stirring. In order to compare the effect on the ice adhesion in aqueous solutions, the functional group like carboxyl (-COOH), hydroxyl(-OH) or amine($-NH_{2}$) one were compared each other. Among the functional group, the strength of the hydrogen bonding force order is amine, hydroxyl and carboxyl one. It supports that ethylene diamine 7 mass% solution including amine group was effective to suppress the ice adhesion, though it is corrosive. Also, the ice adhesion were effectively resisted and formed lots of ice slurries in cooling experiment of 7 mass% solution of 1, 2-and 1, 3-propanediol which is different molecular structure but equal molecular weight each other.

This study were carried out to investigate the effective concentration of cryoprotectant agents and sucrose by one-step straw method, and to determine the optimum thawing temperature and equilibration time of frozen bovine embryos. The bovine embryos following dehydration by cryoprotective agents and a various concentration of sucrose were directly plunged into liquid nitrogen and thawed in 3O$^{\circ}C$ water. Survival rate was defined by FDA test. The results are summarized as follows : 1. The survival rate of bovine embryos thawed after rapid freezing in the freezing medium containing a various kinds of cryoprotective agents added 0.25M and O.50M sucrose were 28.6% and 25.0%, 35.1% and 31.6%, 32.4% and 24.4%, 34.2% and 28.2%, 18.9% and 17.6%, 14.7.% and 21.6%, respectively. 2. The survival rate of bovine embryos thawed after rapid freezing in the freezing medium containing a various concentration of sucrose added 1.5M and 2.OM glycerol, i.5M and 2.OM DMSO and 1.5M and 2.OM propanediol were 22.9~37.8%, 2O.7~31. 3%, 19.2~30.0% and 17.2~25.0%, respectively. 3. The temperature thawed at 2$0^{\circ}C$ after rapid freezing of bovine embryos resulted in a significantly higher embryos survival rate than did at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 35$^{\circ}C$. 4. The equilibration time on the survival rate of bovine embryos was attained after short period of time(2.5~5 min.) in the freezing medium higher than long period of time (1O~20 min.).

The follicular oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 medium containing 10 IU/ml PMSG(Sigma, USA), 10 IU/ml hCG(Sigma, USA), 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml $\beta$-estradiol(Sigma, USA) and 10% FCS for 24~48 hrs in incubator with 5% CO2 in air at 38.5$^{\circ}C$ and then matured oocytes were again cultured for 12~18 hrs with motile capacitated sperm by preincubation of heparin. The bovine embryos following dehydration by cryoprotective agents and various concentration of sucrose were directly plunged into liquid nitrogen and thawed in 3$0^{\circ}C$ water. Survival and in vitro developmental rate was defined as developmental rate on in vitro culture or FDA-test. The results are summarized as followes : 1.

SOS Chromotest and Ames test were carried out to evaluate the mutagenicity of three chloropropanols. In the SOS Chromotest, 3-monochloro-l,2-propanediol (3-MCPD) and 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol (2,3-DCP) except for 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) induced SOS response in Escherichia coli PQ37 with dose-response relationship and 2,3-DCP was far more genotoxic than 3-MCPD. The genotoxic activities of both compounds, however, were very lower in E. coli PQ35 (PQ37 $uvrA^+)$ as compared to them in E. coli PQ37, whereas much higher in E. coli PQ243 (PQ37 tagA alkA). These results indicate that there are at least two types of DNA lesions caused by these compounds; one is a excision-repairable and the other is 3-methyladenine or any similar lesion which is excision-unrepairable and can induce adaptive response. In Salmonella typhimurium TA100, all the compounds showed strong mutagenicities, establishing the following genotoxic order: 2,3-DCP>3-MCPD>1,3-DCP. But the mutagenic activities were very low in S. typhimurium TA98 and TA97a. These results suggest that the mutation by chloropropanols can be induced by the DNA lesions causing base-pair substitutions. From the result that the mutagenicities of 3-MCPD and 2,3-DCP in S. typhimurium TA1535 were very low as compared to those in S. typhimurium TA100, it was appeared that the mutations by both compounds necessitate error-prone SOS repair.
