Achromobacter xylosoxidans KF701 and Pseudomonas putida (NAH7) were significantly different in degradative capability of aromatic compounds including benzoates, biphenyls, and naphthalene. However, both of the bacterial strains can grown on catechol as the sole carbon and energy source. Catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase gene for naphthalene oxidation or biphenyl oxidation was cloned into Escherichia coli HB 701. A E. coli HB 101 clone containing catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase gene from P. putida (NAH7) contains a recombinant plasmid with 3.60kb pBR322 and 6-kb insert DNA. Another E. coli HB101 clone containing catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase gene from A. xylosoxidans KF 701 has a recombinant plasmid with 4.4kb pBR322 and 10-kb insert DNA. Physical maps of the recombinant plasmids were constructed, and catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase gene in the recombinant plasmide was further localized and subcloned int M13. The cloned-catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase game products were identified as yellow bands on nondenaturaing polyacrylamide gel after electrophoresis followed by activity staining with catechol solution.

Biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) has been used for the treatment of acute and chronic hepatitis. However, its poor solubility in water, $2.5\;{\mu}g/ml$, caused low bioavailability of the drug after its oral administration. In order to increase the dissolution of DDB in gastrointestinal tracts, consequently to increase the bioavailability of the drug, DDB tablet was prepared with solid dispersion of DDB with poloxamer 338 or 407 using a direct compression method. To improve the flowability of the solid dispersion, Aerosil was used as an adsorbent. The effect of formulation variables (poloxamer and Aerosil contents) on the dissolution rate of DDB from tablets was investigated using an analysis of variance. The dissolution rate of DDB from tablets was evaluated with KP II (paddle) method. The dissolution patterns of the drug from the tablet prepared with poloxamer 407 were affected significantly by the contents of poloxamers and Aerosil over the range employed, but those of the drug from the tablet prepared with poloxamer 338 were not. The optimum formulation of the DDB tablet, showed the same dissolution pattern as that of the reference, was obtained after polynomial equations of drug dissolution profiles for each formula were fitted to contour plots. The optimum formulation ratios of DDB:poloxamer 407:Aerosil were 1:2.5:2.5 and 1:5:5.

Bioequivalence (BE) test of biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (DDB) tablets was performed. Normal healthy male volunteers (n = 20) were randomly divided into 2 groups, and reference $(Nissel{\circledR})$ and test $(Livital{\circledR})$ tablets of DDB $(25mg{\times}8\;Tab.\;= \;200\;mg)$ were given orally by balanced two-period cross-over design. The serum concentration was determined by high performance liquid chromatography. The pharmacokinetic parameters, AUC, $C_{max}$, and $T_{max}$ obtained after drug administration were statistically analyzed. Statistical evaluation of the data involved an analysis of variance (ANOVA) for cross-over design. The results were within 20% differences of mean value in AUC, $C_{max}$, and $T_{max}$ between reference and test tablets. The results of ANOVA showed no significant differences for "between group or subject" and "period". The test tablet was bioequivalent with the reference tablet in the AUC, $C_{max}$, and $T_{max}$.

We have studied the effect of host materials on the electrophosphorescence properties by comparing three different host materials such as tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)-aluminum (III) $(Alq_3)$, bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)-zinc (II) $(Znq_2)$, and 4,4'-N,N' dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) doped with a red-emissive phosphorescent dye, 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethyl-21H,23H-porphyrin platinum (II) (PtOEP). The EL spectra show a strong red emission (peak at 650 nm) from the triplet excited state of PtOEP and a very weak emission from an electron transport layer of $Alq_3$ and a hole transport layer of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD). We find that the triplet exciton lifetime and the quantum efficiency decrease in the order of CBP, $Alq_3$, and $Znq_2$ host materials. The results are interpreted as a poor exciton confinement in $Alq_3$, and $Znq_2$ host compared with in CBP. Therefore, it is very important for the triplet-exciton confinement in the emissive layer for obtaining a high efficiency.

The accelerated stability of dimethoxy biphenyl monocarboxylate.HCl (DDB-S) was investigated in 6 mg/mL water solution in the pH ranging 2-10 and the temperature of $45-85^{\circ}C$. The observed rate of degradation followed first-order kinetics. The energy of activation for DDB-S degradation was calculated to be 14.1 and 16.5 $Kcal/mole$ at pH 5 and in distilled watery respectively. The degradation rate constant ($K_{25^{\circ}C}$) obtained by trending line analysis of Arrhenius plots for DDB-S was $5.3{\times}10^{-6}h^{-1}$. The times to degrade 10% ($t_{10}$) and 50% $t_{500}$) at $K_{25^{\circ}C}$ were 829 and 5,416 days, respectively. DDB-S exhibited the fastest degradation at pH 10 and the slowest rate at pH 5. In addition, at $K_{65^{\circ}C}$, degradation rate constants of DDB-S were 0.066, 0.059, 5.460, 32.171, and $1.4{\times}10^{-6}h^{-1}$ at pH 2, 5, 8, 10 and in distilled water, respectively. These observations indicated that the rate-pH profile of DDB-S showed general acid-base catalysis reaction in the range of pH 2-10.

The crystal structure of diflunisal, 2',4'-difluoro-4-hydroxy-3-biphenyl-carboxylic acid, was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The compound was recrystallized from a mixture of acetone and water in monoclinic, space group C2/c, with $a\;=\;34.666(6),\;b\;=\;3.743(1),\;c\;=\;20.737(4)\;{\AA},\;{\beta}=\;110.57(2)^{\circ}$, and Z = 8. The calculated density is $1.324\;g/cm^3$. The structure was solved by the direct method and refined by full matrix least-squares procedure to the final R value of 0.045 for 1299 observed reflections. It was found that the molecules in the crystal are partially disordered, that is, the two equivalent conformers $(180^{\circ}$ rotated ones through C(1)-C(7)) are packed alternatively without regular symmetry or sequence. The two phenyl rings of the biphenyl group is tilted to each other by the dihedral angle of $43.3^{\circ}$. The carboxyl group at the salicylic moiety is just coplanar to the phenyl ring, and the planarity of this salicylic moiety is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond of O(3)-H(O3) O(2). The molecules are dimerized through the intermolecular hydrogen bonds at the carboxyl group in the crystal.

The relaxed torsional potential of a liquid crystalline polymer containing an ester functional group in a mesogenic unit (hereafter 12-4 oligomer) has been calculated with the ab initio self-consistent-field using 6-31G$^*$ basis set. GIAO^{13}C NMR chemical shifts also have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G$^*$ level of theory for each conformational structure obtained from torsional potential calculation. The results show that the phenyl ring-ester linkages are coplanar with the dihedral angle of about 0$^{\circ}$ and the ring-ring linkages in the biphenyl groups are tilted with the dihedral angle of around 43-44$^{\circ}$ in the lowest energy conformer. The biphenyl ring has a comparatively lower energy barrier of internal rotation potential in the ring-ring than that of phenyl ring-ester. The ^{13}C chemical shifts of carbonyl carbons were found to move to upfield due to $\pi$ -conjugation with phenyl ring and slightly affected about 0.5 ppm by dihedral angle of the ring-ring linkage.

The cure properties of self-extinguishing epoxy resin systems with different charge transfer type latent catalysts were investigated, which are composed of YX4000H as a biphenyl epoxy resin, MEH-7800SS as a hardener, and charge transfer type latent catalysts. We designed and used five kinds of charge transfer type latent catalyst and compared to epoxy resin systems with Triphenylphosphine-Benzoquinone(TPP-BQ) as reference system. The cure kinetics of these systems were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry with an isothermal approach, the kinetic parameters of all systems were reported in generalized kinetic equations with diffusion effects. The epoxy resin systems with Triphenylphosphine-Quinhydrone(TPP-QH), Triphenylphosphine-Benzanthrone(TPP-BT) and Triphenylphosphine-Anthrone(TPP-AT) as a charge transfer type latent catalyst showed a cure conversion rate of equal or higher rate than those with TPP-BQ. These systems with TPP-QH and Triphenylphosphine-Tetracyanoethylene(TPP-TCE) showed a critical cure reaction conversion of equal or higher conversion than those with TPP-BQ. The increases of cure conversion rates could be explained by the decrease of the activation energy of these epoxy resin systems. It can be considered that the increases of critical cure reaction conversion would be dependent on the crystallinity of the biphenyl epoxy resin systems.
