Nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, disodium salt (NRS) was used as an organic ligand to prepare basic drug-selective polymeric membrane electrode. The sensing membrane of the electrode consited of basic drug-meta1(II)-NRS as an ion-exchanger site in a poly(vinyl chloride) matrix plasticized with 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether (NPOE). The metal ions used were Fe$^{2+}$, Co$^{2+}$, Ni$^{2+}$ and Cu$^{2+}$. The electrodes exhibited fast and wide linear response in the basic drug concentration of 10$^{-5}$ ∼10$^{-3}$ mol/l with a response slope of 50∼60 mV/decade in a buffer solution of pH 4∼8. The electrodes exhibited good selectivity for many basic compounds.mpounds.

The photochromic dyes(spiroxazine) as a susceptible material were synthesized by condensing 1-nitroso-$\beta$-naphthol with piperidine. The melting point of the synthesized spiroxazine dye was 245$^{\circ}C$. Irradiation with ultraviolet light had effect on reversible coloration reaction. The photochromic dye microcapsules were produced by interfacial precipitation method using polyvinylalcohol and ethylcellulose. The average diameter of microcapsules was 5.4$\mu$m. The dyeability and fastness of dyeings of the microcapsule fibers were increased by pretreatment of the cationic agent.

A new PVC membrane electrode for $UO_2^{2+}$ ion based on 2,2'-[1,2-ethanediyl bis (nitriloethylidene)]bis(1-naphthalene) as a suitable ionophore was prepared. The electrode exhibites a Nernstian response for $UO_2^{2+}$ ion over a wide concentration range ($1.0{\times}10^{-1}-1.0{\times}10^{-7}$M) with a slope of 28.5 ${\pm}$ 0.8 mV/decade. The limit of detection is $7.0{\times}10^{-8}$M. The electrode has a response time of < 20 s and a useful working pH range of 3-4. The proposed membrane sensor shows good discriminating abilities towards $UO_2^{2+}$ ion with regard to several alkali, alkaline earth transition and heavy metal ions. It was successfully used to the recovery of uranyl ion from, tap water and, as an indicator electrode, in potentiometric titration of $UO_2^{2+}$ ion with Piroxycam.

To identify oxidative hair dyes in hair-coloring products, the thin-layer chromatography (TLC) screening method was used in accordance with Korean Quasi-drug Codex. However, the TLC method is not reliable when there are very small amount of materials to be tested or when $R_f$ values of several components are similar. In this study, Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) with a rapid sample preparation method was developed for the reliable and sensitive identification of active components contained in oxidative hair-coloring products. Hexane-distilled water was used for the extraction of active components contained in the products prior to UPLC analysis. The limit of detection of active components was 6.7-77.9 ${\mu}g/L$, and the limit of quantitation was 22.3-259.7 ${\mu}g/L$. Except for ${\alpha}$-naphthol, the range of recovery ratio was 96.2-101.5%. From this study, we demonstrated that oxidative active hair-coloring components can easily be analyzed by rapid extraction method followed by UPLC analysis.

Hydrolase activities of excretory-secretory products (ESP) and somatic extracts (SE) from Anisakis simplex sensu stricto (s.s.) and Anisakis pegreffii larvae were investigated by using API ZYM kit. In esterase group, acid phosphatase showed high activity from both of A. simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii. Esterase (C4) showed activity only from SE and A. simplex (s.s.) showed higher activity than A. pegreffii. Alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase showed higher activity in 3rd stage larvae than in 4th stage larvae of both species. In aminopeptidase group, only leucine arylamidase showed remarkable activity in SE of both anisakid species, and A. simplex (s.s.) SE showed higher activity than A. pegreffii SE. In glycosidase group, N-acetyl-${\beta}$-glucosaminidase, ${\alpha}$-mannosidase, ${\alpha}$-fucosidase showed higher activity in A. simplex (s.s.) than A. pegreffii, and 4th larvae showed higher activity than 3rd larvae. These differences in hydrolase activity of anisakid nematodes larvae are thought to be due to different metabolism such as growth, moulting, digestion and feeding.

생쥐의 장내세균으로 부터 황산전이 반응을 촉매하는 효소인 sulfotransferase를 생산하는 균주를 분리하였으며 동정결과 Haemophilus속 균주로 확인되어 Haemophilus K-12라 명명하였다. 균의 성장과 효소활성과의 관계를 보면 균은 10시간에서 완전히 성장하였으며 효소활성도 이와 비례하였다. Haemophilus K-12의 배지조성에 따른 sulfotransferase의 생산성을 Brain Heart Infusion 배지에서의 생산성과 비교해보면 탄소원으로는 sucrose가 0.2%농도에서 584%로 가장 좋았으며 질소원으로는 yeast extract가 266%로 가장 좋았다. 공여체로 PNS를 최종농도 1mM로 하여 배지에 첨가하였을때 212%로 가장 높은 효소증가를 보였다. 2가금속이온에 의한 효소증가는 현저하지 않았으며 $Mn^{2+}$이 107%로 가장 높았고$Zn^{2+}$와 EDTA에 의해서는 저해를 받았다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 균배양을 위한 이상적인 배지조성을 sucrose 0.2%, yeast extract 1%, $Na_2$HPO$_4$ 0.25%, NaCl 0.5%로 결정하였다. 결정된 최적배지에 균을 10L 배양하여 초음파 처리, 원심분리한 것을 70 % ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography를 2회, Hydroxyapatite column chromatography, chromatdfocusing column chromatography, Silica PAE column chromatography, Sephacryl S-300 superfine column chromatography를 행한결과 specific activity가 6.76 umoie/min/mg protein인 효소액을 얻었으며 homogeneous enzyme였다. 이렇게 해서 얻은 효소를 이용하여 수용체 기질 특이성을 측정한 결과 1-naphthol이 phenol을 100%로 하였을 때 233%로 가장 좋았으며 Eubacterium A-44 sulfotransferase의 좋은 기질이었던 p-acetaminophenol, tyramine, 9-phenanthrol은 좋은 기질이 되지 못했다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아Haemophilus K-12 sulfotransferase는 지금까지 보고된 bacterial sulfotrasferase와는 다른 효소로 사려되며 효소반응기전의 규명이 이루어지면 산업적 응용이 가능할것으로 사료된다.

Novel super hydrophobic disazo red dyes were synthesized to improve light fastness of the primary monoazo red dye of previous study on polyolefin fibers such as polypropylene and ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fibers. 4-Alkylanilines were diazotized and then coupled to 2,5-dimethylaniline to produce dye intermediates which were then further used to synthesize final disazo red dyes by diazoization and coupling to ${\beta}$-naphthol. Considering both affinity of the dyes toward both polyolefin fibers and color fastnesses, the decyl-substituted dye was determined as the optimum dye. The decyl-substituted disazo red dye exhibited good dyeability on both polyolefin fibes and almost the same color values as the previous primary monoazo red dye. Light fastness on ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fibers was improved up to rating 3~4 compared to rating 2~3 of the previous primary monoazo red dye.

Hypericin, a photosensitizing plant pigment, was found to be a potent inducer of differentiation of human myeloid leukemia U-937 cells. At a concentration of $0.2{\mu}M$, hypericin exhibited 50% growth inhibition. An effect on cell differentiation by hypericin was assessed by its ability to induce phagocytosis of latex particles, and to reduce nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT). Approximately 51% of $0.2{\mu}M$ hypericin-treated cells were stained with NBT and 63% showed phagocytic activity. In order to establish whether hypericin induces differentiation of U-937 cells to macrophage or granulocyte, esterase activities and cell sizes were measured. When U-937 cells were treated with $0.2{\mu}M$ and $0.15{\mu}M$ of hypericin, the .alpha.-naphthyl acetate esterase activity was increased by 38.4% and 48.1%, respectively, but naphthol AS-D chloroacetate esterase activity was not influenced. The size of hypericin-treated cells in terms of cell mass was larger than that observed in untreated cells as determined by flow cytometry. Protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, NA-382, decreased the NBT reducing activity of hypericin, whereas a cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, H-89, did not show any influence on the differentiations. These results indicate that hypericin triggers differentiation toward monocyte/macrophage lineage by PKC stimulation.

10 carbamate pesticides were surveyed in domestic and imported green peas, beans, red beans from March 1999 through December 1999. Samples were collected from Gwangju, Mokpo, Suncheon and Yosoo grain markets. This study was performed by post-column ο-phthalaldehyde and 2-mercaptoethanol prior to HPCL fluorophore detection. Pesticides were found in 14 of 80 samples(17.5%). The kinds of pesticide detected in green peas were methomyl, MTMC, carbaryl, those in sesames were oxamyl, carbofuran, carbaryl, 1-naphthol, MIPC, those in beans were oxamyl, MTMC, carbaryl and those in red beans were MTMC, carbaryl. The range of residues detected in green peas, sesames, beans and red beans were 0.002∼0.025ppm, 0.001∼0.469ppm, 0.005∼0.356ppm and 0.017∼0.125ppm, respectively. The most frequently detected pesticides were MTMC(6 times) and carbaryl(5 times), while aldicarb, PHC and BPMC were no detected in all samples. Detection frequencies of carbamate pesticides in imported crops were higher than those in domestic ones except red beans. Only one result of oxamyl residues determined in imported bean was higher than the proposed maximum residue limits of Codex, which was 0.356ppm.

Arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) transfers a sulfate group from a phenolic sulfate ester to a phenolic acceptor substrate. In the present study, the gene encoding ASST was cloned from a genomic library copy of Citrobacter freundii, subcloned into the vector pGEM3Zf(-) and sequenced. Sequencing revealed two contiguous open reading frames (ORF1 and ORF2) on the same strand and based on amino acid sequence homologyl they were designated as astA and dsbA, respectively. The amino acid sequence of astA deduced from C. freundii was highly similar to that of the Salmonella typhimurium, Enterobacter amnigenus, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas putida, and Campylobacter jejuni, encoded by the astA genes. However, the ASST activity assay revealed different acceptor specificities. Using p-nitrophenyl sulfate (PNS) as a donor substrate, $\alpha$-naphthol was found to be the best acceptor substrate, followed by phenol, resorcinol, p-acetaminophen, tyramine and tyrosine.
