In this study, an ultrasound-assisted micellar extraction process was developed to efficiently purify the anticancer substance paclitaxel from the plant cell Taxus chinensis. The problem of many extraction steps and long phase separation time in the traditional micellar process could be dramatically improved. The highest paclitaxel yield (~96%, extracted twice) was obtained at 180 W of ultrasonic power and 1.5 h of ultrasonic irradiation time, which was 24.7% higher than that of the traditional method. In addition, the partition coefficient (K) showed a maximum value (24.0) at 180 W of ultrasonic power and 1.5 h of irradiation time. There was no significant difference in the purity of paclitaxel, and the purity of initial paclitaxel (6.81%) increased to 22.0% after purification. Compared to the traditional method, the phase separation time of the back extraction decreased by 40.7-56.2% (ultrasonic power 80 W), 46.3-67.6% (ultrasonic power 180 W), and 51.9-67.6% (ultrasonic power 250 W), respectively. The phase separation time decreased as the ultrasonic power (80-250 W) and irradiation time (0.5-2.5 h) increased.

In this study, the effect of obstacle aspect ratio on vortex in building canyon was numerically investigated using a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) model. The sensitivity experiments were performed in the cases of increasing building length(L) and height(H) by the width(W) of building canyon. The wind vector fields and secondary reverse vortex in building canyon were discussed in this study. For the horizontal vortex, the vortex zone increased as the building length increases, but the vectors at the middle of building canyon began to change in the case of L/W=2.5. In the case of L/W=3.0, the smaller primary vortex was presented with the secondary reverse vortex. For the vertical vortex, the vortex zone increased as the building height increases, but the direction of vectors at the bottom of building canyon began to change in the case of H/W=2.5. In the case of H/W=3.5, the smaller primary vortex was presented with the secondary reverse vortex.

This study was carried out to obtain the basic data for an artificial cultivation of Phellinus sp.. The optimum conditions for the mycelial growth on the different sawdusts (Quercus aliena, Morns alba and Alnus japonica) substrate of an isolated Phellinus sp. were optimized by response surface methodology. The ratio of rice bran addition to sawdust and the suitable moisture content for the mycelial growth in the all sawdust media were about 30% (w/w) and $65{\sim}70%$ (w/v), respectively. The initial pHs for the mycelial growth of Quercus aliena and Morns alba were in the range of $pH\;5{\sim}6$, whereas Alnus japonica was obtained at pH 6. The optimum temperature for the mycelial growth was about $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$, depending on the different kinds of wood substrates. From the response surface analysis, the values of independent variables of Quercus aliena at stationary points were determined to be 31.01 % (w/w) of rice bran, pH of 5.31 and 69.03% (w/v) of moisture content, and the expected value of mycelial growth was about 8.32 cm. Both the ratio of rice bran addition to sawdust $(X_1)$ and moisture content $(X_3)$ were effective to the mycelial growth. In the case of Morns alba, the ratio of rice bran addition to sawdust, initial pH and moisture content at the stationary points were 28.77% (w/w), 5.28 and 69.8 (w/v),respectively, and the expected mycelial growth of 7.60 cm was obtained. Stationary points for the mycelial growth in the sawdust media of Alnus japonica were 28.74% (w/w) of rice bran, pH of 6. 04 and 66.96% (w/v) of moisture content, and the expected values of mycelial growth was about 5.38 cm. Based on the above results, there was correlations between the mycelial growth and independent variables, and the effect of rice bran $(X_1)$ and initial pH $(X_2)$ for the mycelial growth were higher than the moisture content $(X_3)$. The optimum species of sawdust media for the my celial growth of Phellinus sp. was in the order of Quercus aliena > Morns alba > Alnus japonica.

In order to investigate the meat tenderizing effects of pear, pineapple and kiwifruit, crude protease was prepared from each fruit and treated with actomyosin in a single manner or mixed type in several combination. Actomyosin was incubated with various proteases for 24 hrs under three different pH condition, and its degrading performance was evaluated by the SDS-PAGE. Pear extract showed an active degrading activity for actomyosin at pH 5.3 and 7.0. But, little actomyosin degradation was observed at pH 8.0. Actomyosin was strongly degraded by the treatment of protease from pineapple at all different pHs(5.3, 7.0 and 8.0). Kiwifruit protease extract has shown actomyosin degradation activity 1hr after treatment at pH 5.3 and pH 7.0. Meanwhile, the mixture of pear and pineapple extracts(l:l, w/w) showed much more degradation than the results of singular manner treatment at pH 5.3 and 7.0. When the pear protease was mixed with kiwifruit protease(l:l, w/w), the performance of actomyosin degradation was similar to the results of each single protease treatment. When the mixture was made of pineapple and kiwifruit extracts, actomyosin degradation was almost the same as the result of treatment of pineapple protease only. When those three proteases were mixed together(l:l:l, w/w/w), actomyosin degrading activities was in time dependent manner at pH 5.3. In summary, pear protease can be used potentially as a meat tenderizer when it was mixed with pineapple or kiwifruit rendering proper tenderization of the meat.

An extracellular cellulase producing bacterium YE-5 was isolated from soil, and identified as a Cellulomonas sp. by its taxonomical characteristics. The maximal activities of avicelase (0.35 units/ml), CMCase (3.18 units/ml), FPase (0.315 units/ml) and $\beta$-glucosidase (0.882 units/ml) were obtained when this strain was cultured for 48 hrs at $30^{\circ}C$ in a medium containing 0.8% (w/v) Solka floc, 0.06010 (wlv) urea, 0.1% (w/v) $K_2HP0_4$, 0.1% (w/v) $MgS0_4.7H2_0$, 0.2% (w/v) bacto peptone, 0.2% (w/v) yeast extract and pH 6.5. The cellulase was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography and Sephadex 6-100 column chromatography from culture filtrate of Cellulomonus sp. YE-5. The molecular weights of purified avieelase, CMCase I, and CMCase II were estimated to be about 95,000 ~ 105,000, 46,000 ~ 47,000 and 120,000 ~ 125,000, respectively.

The effects of ionic strength on the polynucleation reaction of tungstate ions and the protonized reaction of polytungstate ions have been investigated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4 M KCl.The hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are formed in the tungstate solutions whose ionic strengths are 1 M to 4 M KCl. The equilibrium constants for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are calculated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4M KCl. The enthalpy changes for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are as follows; $7H^++{6WO_4}^{2-}={HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}+3H_2O\;\;{\Delta}H^{\circ}=-62.4{\pm}0.6$$H^++{HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}={H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}\;\;{\Delta}H+_1^{\circ}=-4.12{\pm}0.10$$H^++{H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}={ H_3W_6O_{21}}^{3-}\;\;{\Delta}H_2^{\circ}=-4.36{\pm}0.30$ The free energy and entropy changes for the above reactions have been also calculated. A linear relation is formed between $log k_{6,7}$ and ionic strength, and $log k_1\;or\;log k_2\;vs{\cdot}{\mu}.$ $log k_{6,7}\;=\;D{\mu}+I,\;\;where\;D\;=\;1.66{\pm}0.02$$log k_1\;=\;D_1{\mu}+I_1,\;\;where\;D_1\;=\;-8.065{\pm}0.001$$log k_2\;=\;D_2{\mu}+I_2,\;\;where\;D_2\;=\;-0.376{\pm}0.006$
