Several researches are focused on improving the value of fine chemicals based on biomass resources due to environmental and other concerns associated with the use of petroleum-based products. Therefore, the synthesis and application of estolides derived from plant-based waste oil materials and their application as lubricants and as processing oil for butyl rubber products have been studied. Four kinds of estolide were prepared with conversions of 71~92% over 24h using various vegetable oils, as determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. FT-IR spectroscopy determines the esterification of estolides using 2-ethylhexyl alcohol. The estolides have iodine values of 35~90, α-ester/α-acid ratios of 0.45~0.55, and total acid number of 114~134 mg KOH g^–1. Four ball wear tests show that the wear scar diameters (WSDs) of estolides as base oil significantly decreased to 0.328~0.494 mm, compared to WSDs of 0.735 and 0.810 mm of WSD for 150N and Yubase 6, respectively, as general base oil. Thus, the estolides have better wear resistance and satisfying design objectives for the engineering of a variety of lubricant base oils.

During the fermentation process of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, yeast cells must rapidly respond to a wide variety of external stresses in order to survive the constantly changing environment, including ethanol stress. The accumulation of ethanol can severely inhibit cell growth activity and productivity. Thus, the response to changing ethanol concentrations is one of the most important stress reactions in S. cerevisiae and worthy of thorough investigation. Therefore, this study examined the relationship between ethanol tolerance in S. cerevisiae and a unique protein called alcohol sensitive RING/PHD finger 1 protein (Asr1p). A real-time PCR showed that upon exposure to 8% ethanol, the expression of Asr1 was continuously enhanced, reaching a peak 2 h after stimulation. This result was confirmed by monitoring the fluorescence levels using a strain with a green fluorescent protein tagged to the C-terminal of Asr1p. The fluorescent microscopy also revealed a change in the subcellular localization before and after stimulation. Furthermore, the disruption of the Asr1 gene resulted in hypersensitivity on the medium containing ethanol, when compared with the wild-type strain. Thus, when taken together, the present results suggest that Asr1 is involved in the response to ethanol stress in the yeast S. cerevisiae.

Titanium phenoxide and titanium carboxylate derivatives were prepared by ligand exchange of titanium tetraisopropoxide with the corresponding phenol and carboxylic acids. The substitution reactions were analyzed by NMR focused in the liberation of isopropylalcohol. The chemical shift of secondary proton of isopropyl group shifted to upfield after liberation; from 4.47 ppm at titanium-bound to 4.1~4.3 ppm at free alcohol state in $CDCl_3$. The substitution reaction of titanium tetraisopropoxide with carboxylic acid was applied to form dye-Ti complex for dye-sensitized solar cell.

A new disposable amperometric tri-enzyme biosensor for the detection of paracetamol has been developed. The paracetamol sensors developed uses horseradish peroxidase modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (HRP-SPCEs) coupled with immobilized enzymes, tyrosinase and aryl acylamidase, prepared using a poly (vinyl alcohol) bearing styrylpyridinium groups (PVA-SbQ) matrix. Optimization of the experimental parameters has been performed and the paracetamol biosensor showed detection limit for paracetamol is as low as $100{\mu}M$ and the sensitivity of the sensor is $1.46nA{\mu}M^{-1}cm^{-2}$.

The transformation of the liquid crystal complex made by binding of anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), into high charge density cationic polymer, the homopolymer of diallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDADMAC) was induced by adding of nonionic surfactants and investigated by means of microscopy and FE.SEM. Among nonionic surfactants in this experiments polyethylene glycol (3 mol) ether of lauryl alcohol (laureth-3) made variation in the complex. The laureth-3 transformed the complex into spherulite vesicle with the size of ca.$100{\mu}m$. This change increased the viscosity and the turbidity of the solution phase separated originally. Microscope showed that they are spherulite particles and polarized microscope suggested they are multi.lamellar liquid crystals. FE-SEM also proved that explicitly.

화학방부제는 항균활성은 좋지만 많은 부작용이 보고되고 있어 최근에는 인체에 해가 없으며 방부 기능과 자체 효능이 있는 천연방부제의 개발이 활발하다. 또한 천연물의 흡수율을 높이기 위한 방법으로 분자량이 커서 인체에 잘 흡수되지 않아 저분자화를 시키기 위한 방법으로 균주를 이용하여 발효하는 것도 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 이에 천연방부제가 방부 효과는 지속되어야 하고 첨가했을 때 품질에 손상을 주지 않아야 하며, 향, 색과 성분에 영향을 끼치지 않아야 한다는 요건들을 충족시켜야 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 인체에 해가 없으며 항균활성이 좋은 황금, 단삼, 관중을 선정하였다. 식물은 모두 에탄올로 추출하였고, 발효균주로는 B. subtilis, L. casei, S. cerevisiae와 누룩에서 분리한 Asp. oryzae로 액체와 고체발효를 하여 발효 전과 발효 후의 유효성분의 함량을 비교하였다. 항균활성을 알아보기 위해 C. albicans, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa 세균 3종과 진균은 E. coli로 억제력을 탐색하였다. 천연방부제 개발로 사용하기 위해서는 항균활성이 있고 이러한 실험을 수행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 원산지, 굵기와 용매에 따른 수율은 황금은 중국산이며 굵기는 2,800㎛로 50% ethyl alcohol 추출물에서 21.88%, 단삼은 국내산으로 굵기는 2,800㎛이며 50% ethyl alcohol 추출물에서 25.62%, 관중은 중국산으로 굵기는 2,800㎛, 70% ethyl alcohol 추출물에서 6.50%의 수율을 얻었다. 2. L. casei로 1일 액체 발효했을 때 수율은 황금 66.8%, 단삼 84.8%, 관중 73.0%였다. B. subtilis로 고체발효한 황금과 단삼은 24.40%, 39.30%, 관중은 L. casei로 발효 했을 때 11.10%의 수율을 얻었다. 3. 액체발효 후 황금에서 S. aureus 균주에 대하여 9mm 정도의 clear zone이 확인되었고, 단삼과 관중 발효에서는 항균력이 확인되지 않았다. 4. 황금을 L. casei로 고체발효 했을 때 C. albicans와 S. aureus에서 높은 항균활성을 보였다. 단삼은 S. cerevisiae로 고체발효 했을 때 S. aureus에서 항균활성을 보였다. 관중은 L. casei, S. cerevisiae로 고체발효 했을 때 E. coli와 S. aureus에서 항균활성이 높게 나타났다. 발효하지 않았을 때보다 발효 후의 항균활성이 매우 높았다. 5. 유효성분의 변화는 고체발효하지 않은 황금에서는 baicalin 101.57, baicalein 28.26, wogonin 5.33mg/g이었고, S. cerevisiae로 고체발효 했을 때는 baicalin 94.31, baicalein 30.41, wogonin 3.57mg/g로 baicalein의 함량은 증가된 것으로 확인되었다. 발효하지 않은 단삼에서는 salvianolic acid A가 1.82mg/g 이었으며, S. cerevisiae로 고체발효했을 때는 5.70mg/g으로 증가하였다. 관중의 유효성분은 flavaspidic acid AP, flavaspidic acid PB, flavaspidic acid AB, flavaspidic acid BB로 나타났다.
