In metal-affinify aqueous two-phase systems, protein partitioning is affected by a variety of parameters such as pH, the number of surface-accessible histidines, and the amount and partition coefficient of metallated polythylene glyco(PEG) ligand. To enhance partitioning of proteins with surface-accessible histidines, we have synthesized and used a (Cu(II)-ininodiacetic acid)$_2$-PEG20,000($Cu(II)_2IDA_2$-PEG20,000) as well as Cu(II)IDA-PEG5,000 as an affinity ligand. The partition coefficient of $Cu(II)_2-IDA_2$-PEG20,000 in a PEG5,000/dextran two-phase system was 30.1, which corresponded to a 3.8-fold increase over that of Cu(II)IDA-PEG5,000. The partitioning experiments were performed on four proteins, horse cytochrome c, S. cerevisiae cytochrome c, horse myoglobin, and sheep myoglobin. Partitioning of proteins which convey surface-accessible histidines was enhanced dramatically by the addition of $Cu(II)_2IDA_2$-PEG20,000 ligand. These results demonstrate that enhanced partitioning of metal-binding proteins in an aqueous two -phase system can by achieved by using an appropriate metallated PEG ligand.

Understanding the phenomena of formation of single drops is necessary to understand the hydrodynamics in solvent extraction equipment which are used for separation of nuclear materials. In this work, the phenomena of aqueous phase and organic phase drop formation at submerged nozzles are compared by conducting experiments with 30%TBP (v/v) in dodecane as the organic phase and nitric acid as the aqueous phase. Two different nozzles and three different nitric acid concentrations are used. For each nozzle and nitric acid concentration, velocity of the dispersed phase is varied. Drops of aqueous phase formed at downward oriented nozzles submerged in organic phase are observed to be smaller than the drops of organic phase formed at upward oriented nozzles submerged in aqueous phase. Correlations to estimate drop diameter are proposed.

수성 이상계는 물에 친수 성분만을 용해시킨 후 용해 물질들 사이에 유발되는 단순한 물리적 불친화성에 의해 액상 다중 층으로 분리되기 때문에 생체적합성에 대한 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 물에 친수 성분만을 용해시킨 후 두 층으로 분리되는 수성 이상계 상분리 원리를 수성 다중 층 액상 화장료에 응용하여 수성 다중 층 화장료에 적용이 가능한 대표적인 두 종의 수성 이상계를 선정하였으며, 이들에 대해 바이노달 곡선과 임계점 및 농도 대응선 그리고 새로운 개념의 상분리 부피 및 상분리 시간 대응곡선을 포함하는 상도를 실험을 통해 작성하였으며, 상 도표로부터 액상 다중 층으로 분리되는 최적의 조건을 관찰할 수 있었다.

Partitioning of human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) was achieved in the aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) using a crude extract of transgenic tobacco cell suspension culture. This study examined the effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecular weight and concentration and the effects of sodium phosphate concentration in different PEG/sodium phosphate systems on the partition coefficient, K. The best ATPS system was 5% PEG 8,000/1.6 M sodium phosphate after 2 h of incubation at room temperature. In this system, hGM-CSF was partitioned in the PEG-rich phase with a yield of 57.99% and K$\_$hGM-CSF/ of 8.12. In another system, 3% PEG 10,000/1.6 M sodium phosphate, hGM-CSF was also partitioned primarily in the top phase with a yield of 45.66% and K$\_$hGM-CSF/ of 7.64 after 2 h of incubation at room temperature.

A novel, continuous bioreactor system combining a bubble column (absorption section) and a two-phase bioreactor (degradation section) has been designed to treat a gas stream containing benzene. The bubble column contained hexadecane as an absorbent for benzene, and was systemically chosen considering physical, biological, environmental, operational and economic factors. This solvent has infinite solubility for benzene and very low volatility. After absorbing benzene in the bubble column, the hexadecane served as the organic phase of the two-phase partitioning bioreactor, transferring benzene into the aqueous phase where it was degraded by Alcaligenes xylosoxidans Y234. The hexadecane was then continuously recirculated back to the absorber section for the removal of additional benzene. All mass transfer and biodegradation characteristics in this system were investigated prior to operation of the integrated unit, and these included: the mass transfer rate of benzene in the absorption column, the mass transfer rate of benzene from the organic phase into the aqueous phase in the two-phase bioreactor, the stripping rate of benzene out of the two-phase bioreactor, etc. All of these parameters were incorporated into model equations, which were used to investigate the effects of operating conditions on the performance of the system. Several experiments were conducted to show the feasibility of this system. This process is believed to be very practical for the treatment of high concentrations of gaseous pollutants.

유기용매 이상계에서의 thermolysin을 사용하여 아스파탐 전구체 합성시 pH, 온도, 기질농도, 그리고 유기용매상에 대한 수용액상의 부비피 ($\alpha$)등의 변화에 따른 기질의 분해 반응, 효소의 안정성, 그리고 Z-APM 합성에 미치는 복합적인 영향을 조사함으로써 반응조건의 최적화를 도모하였다. 유기용매 이상계에서의 L-PM.HCL의 자연분해는 수용액에서보다 훨씬 느리게 일어나며, 또한 $\alpha$가 증가할 수록 분해속도가 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The effects of Pluronic F-68, a non-ionic surfactant, on the growth and physical characteristics of Digitalis lanata suspension cultures were investigated in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) composed of $4.5\%$ polyethylene glycol (PEG) 20,000 and $2.8\%$ crude dextran. In the range of 0.1-10.0 g $1^{-1}$, Pluronic F-68 enhanced the maximum cell density in a medium with ATPSs, even though Pluronic F-68 did not affect cell growth in a normal growth medium. In terms of physical properties of ATPSs with cell suspension cultures, 0.2 g $1^{-1}$ of Pluronic F-68 reduced viscosity by up to $40\%$, while 0.1 g $1^{-1}$ of Pluronic F-68 significantly enhanced the oxygen transfer rate. In addition, we successfully performed aqueous two-phase cultivation in a 5-1 stirred tank bioreactor with 0.5 g $1^{-1}$ of Pluronic F-68, and discovered that cell growth in ATPSs was similar to that in normal growth medium.

The quantitative effects of molecular weight and concentrations of two phase-forming polymers-polyethylene glycol and crude dextran on the two phase extractive ethanol fermentation were investigated using a Box-Wilson central composite protocol. The regression model obtained was used in order to determine optimum compositions of aqueous two phase system. In the aqueous two phase extractive ethanol fermentation of Kluyueromyces fragilis CBS 1555 with Jerusalem artichoke juice, it was found from the regression model that the variables influenlcing on ethanol fermentation were PEG concentration, time, Dx concentration, and PEG molecular weight strongly in order. The interaction of PEG concentration and PEG molecular weight was also found, and the effect of PEG concentration decreased with increase in molecular weight of PEG. The ethanol concentration incresed with increase in molecular weight of PEG, and with decrease in concentration of PEG. In conolusion, maximum concentration of ethanol produced was obtained at the following compositions; PEG MW 20000, Dx concentration ranged from 4% to 5%, and PEG concentration ranged from 3% to 7%.

The transfer behaviors of three Polyarmatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from soil to non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) were investigated. The three different PAHs were phenanthrene, anthracene, and pyrene. The used NAPLs were silicone oil and paraffine oil. The percentage of the remained PAHs into soil were similar without the relation to kinds of NAPLs. And the transfer of PAHs into NAPLs was fastened until 1 day as the increase of mixing rate but in the case of 450 rpm, the remained PAHs into soil was increased after 1 day because NAPLs was emulsified.

숙신산은 의약품, 식품 첨가물, 청정용매와 같은 종래의 응용 이외에도 생분해성 고분자의 중요한 전구물질로 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 최근 화석 연료의 높은 가격과 화석 원료 유래 제품의 전주기에 걸친 온실가스 배출로 인해 재생 가능한 바이오매스에 의한 숙신산의 생물학적 생산에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 숙신산의 선택적인 추출과 농축을 동시에 수행할 수 있는 공정으로서 이미다졸계 이온성 액체/$K_2HPO_4$에 의한 수상이성분계를 적용하였다. 실험 결과 숙신산에 존재하는 $K_2HPO_4$ 수용액에 적정량의 이미다졸계 이온성 액체가 첨가됨에 따라 안정한 수상이성분계가 형성됨을 확인할 수 있었으며 수상이성분계 형성 능력은 [HMIm][Br]${\fallingdotseq}$[OMIm][Br]>[BMIm][Br]>[EMImBr]의 순서로 나타났다. 숙신산의 최대 추출 효율은 약 90%였으며 이온성 액체에서 양이온 사슬길이가 증가할수록 상부상으로 동반 추출되는 물의 양이 줄어들어 숙신산의 선택적 농축효과가 크게 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 사용된 이미다졸계 이온성 액체와 $K_2HPO_4$으로 구성된 수상이성분계는 숙신산의 선택적 추출과 농축에 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.
