This study was evaluated the characteristics of organic materials in the water source and the removal characteristics of organic materials by ultrafiltration including mixing and coagulation process. As a results of the study, it was found that the total organic carbon in the water source was mostly caused by the dissolved organic materials. As the specific ultraviolet absorbance value of the raw water was low, we found the soluble organic material has a high hydrophilic and low molecular material composition ratio. As a result of ultrafiltration experiment including mixing and coagulation process, the average removal rate of total organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon and ultraviolet absorbance at 254 were 37.9%, 30.3%, and 28.2%, respectively.

The difference of carbon source utilization and fatty acid composition between the pathotypes of Xanthomonas strains, which causing citrus bacterial canker was compared, and the physiochemical characteristics were used to analyze relationship of the strains for the first time. The pattern of several carbon sources utilization and fatty acids composition reliably discriminated the pathotypes of Xanthomonas strains. The dendrogram which was constructed by 95 carbon source utilization profiles differentiated X. axonopodis pv. citri A, $A^*$ and $A^w$ from the other pathotypes. When the dendrogram was drawn by combined analysis of carbon source utilization pattern and fatty acid composition, X. axonopodis pv. aurantifolii B, C and X. axonopodis pv. citrumelo formed a distinct cluster. The difference of carbon source utilization and fatty acid composition could be used effectively for the identification of pathotypes of citrus bacterial canker. The physiochemical characteristics strongly indicated that the strains isolated in Korea belong to X. axonopodis pv. citri A type. The cluster analysis by the band patterns of ERIC-, BOX- and REP-PCR allowed the discrimination of the pathotypes isolated from Korea. However, the rep-PCRs could not differentiate X. axonopodis pv. citri A types from $A^*$ and $A^w$ types. The overall results of metabolic profiles and rep-PCRs strongly indicated that the Korean isolates are X. axonopodis pv. citri A type.

A 2.45 GHz microwave plasma with linear antenna has been prepared for hydrophobic and wear-resistible surface coating of carbon steel. Wear-resistible properties are required for the surface protection of cutting tools and achieved by depositing a hydrogenated amorphous carbon film on steel surface through linear microwave plasma source that has $TE_{10}-TEM$ waveguide. Compared to the existing RF plasma source driven by 13.56 MHz, linear microwave plasma source can easily generate high density plasma and provide faster deposition rate and wider process windows. In this study, $Ar/CH_4$ gas mixtures are used for hydrogenated amorphous carbon film deposition. When microwave power of 1000 W is applied, 40 cm long uniform $Ar/CH_4$ plasma could be obtained in gas pressure of 200~400 mTorr. The Vickers hardness measurement of hydrogenated amorphous carbon film on steel surface was evaluated. It was found the optimized deposition condition at $Ar:CH_4=25:25$ sccm, 300 mTorr with microwave power of 1000W and RF bias power of 100W. By deposition of hydrogenated amorphous carbon film, contact angle on steel surfaces increases from $43.9^{\circ}$ to $93.2^{\circ}$.

A strain of Pseudomonas sp. BCNU 154 was isolated from contaminated soil with orangic solvents as the sole source of carbon and energy. It utilized an exceptionally wide aromatic substrates. The strain BCNU 154 was able to utilize toluene, p-xylene, ethylbenzene, cumene, as the only carbon and energy source. When toluene or p-xylene was used as the sole carbon and energy source, the compound was rapidly degraded with significant increase in biomass concentruction. The biodegradation of this compound was observed when ethylbenzene or cumene was supplied on the carbon source and energy source, which may be a candidate extremophilic bacterium for the bioremediation technology.

The role of glyoxylate bypass in a lysine-producing Corynebacterium lactofermentum strain was analyzed. Unlike the wild type, the strain expressed enzymes of glyoxylate bypass during growth in the fermentation broth containing glucose as the carbon source. To evaluate the importance of glyoxylate bypass in the strain, we disrupted chromosomal aceA by using a cloned fragment of the gene. Site-specific disruption of aceA which codes for the isocitrate lyase, the first enzyme of the bypass, was confirmed by Southern blot analysis. The aceA mutant strain completely lost isocitrate lyase activity and ability to grow in a minimal medium containing acetate as the sole carbon source. The mutant strain was similar to its parental strain in growth characteristics and produced comparable amounts of lysine in shake flasks containing glucose as the carbon source. The amount of oxaloacetate accumulated in the fermentation medium was similar for both strains, suggesting that expression of glyoxylate bypass does not necessarily lead to the increase in intracellular oxaloacetate. These data clearly demonstrate that glyoxylate bypass does not function as one of the routes of carbon supply for lysine production in the strain. It appears that the leakiness of the glyoxylate bypass in the strain might be the result of a secondary mutation which arose during previous strain development by random mutagenesis.

The present researches were carried out to examine the favorable nutritional conditions for mycelial growth of Cercospora kikuchii, and inhibition of bacterial growth by the fungus at various cultural conditions. As the nitrogen source, the fungus grew better on yeast-extract than the other sources of nitrogen tested. Sucrose, glucose, maltose and fructose were good sources of carbon for mycelial growth of the fungus. Two isolates of C. kikuchii, wild types A and D, inhibited the growth of bacteria on the medium containing yeast-extract or peptone as the nitrogen source, and sucrose, glucose, maltose or fructose as the carbon source, at pH 5.0. However, the albino mutant showed very little inhibitory effect under the same conditions.

Cr3C2 -dispersed TiC composites were prepared via HPCS(high pressure-self combustion sintering) pro-cess using mixtures of Ti, Cr and a carbon source for the purpose of increasing the facture toughness and sinterability of TiC. In this study the microstructure and properties of the composites were investigated in terms of relation to the carbon source the particle size of Ti and the amount of Cr. It was found that car-bon black was the most effective carbon source among the various carbon sources tested and the reaction was more effective as the particle size of Ti decreased. Among the sintered composites of Ti-C-Cr system the one with 30wt% Cr showed the best physical properties with 0.5% in apparent porosity 98.8% in re-lative density 18.2 GPa in hardness and 4.46 MPa.m1/2 in fracture toughness. In addition it was observed that the lattice constant of TiC decreased gradually with increasing the amount of Cr.

The rise in global energy demand has prompted researches on developing strategies for transforming coal into a cleaner fuel. This requires isolation of microbes with the capability to degrade complex coal into simpler substrates to support methanogenesis in the coal beds. In this study, aerobic bacteria were isolated from an Indian coal bed that can solubilize and utilize coal as the sole source of carbon. The six bacterial isolates capable of growing on coal agar medium were identified on the basis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences, which clustered into two groups; Group I isolates belonged to the genus Rhizobium, whereas Group II isolates were identified as Chelatococcus species. Out of the 4 methods of whole genome fingerprinting (ERIC-PCR, REP-PCR, BOX-PCR, and RAPD), REP-PCR showed maximum differentiation among strains within each group. Only Chelatococcus strains showed the ability to solubilize and utilize coal as the sole source of carbon. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence and the ability to utilize different carbon sources, the Chelatococcus strains showed maximum similarity to C. daeguensis. This is the first report showing occurrence of Rhizobium and Chelatococcus strains in an Indian coal bed, and the ability of Chelatococcus isolates to solubilize and utilize coal as a sole source of carbon for their growth.

The ArF PR mask was. developed to overcome the limit. of sub 40nm patterning technology with KrF PR. But ArF PR difficult to meet the required PR selectivity by thin PR thickness. So need to the multi-stack mask such as amorphous carbon layer (ACL). Generally capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) etcher difficult to make the high density plasma and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) type etcher is more suitable for multi stack mask etching. Hybrid Coupled Plasma source (HCPs) etcher using the 13.56MHz RF power for ICP source and 2MHz and 27.12MHz for bias power was adopted to improve the process capability and controllability of ion density and energy independently. In the study, the oxide trench which has the multi stack layer process was investigated with the HCPs etcher (iGeminus-600 model DMS Corporation). The results were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and it was found that etching characteristic of oxide trench profile depend on the multi-stack mask.

Production of pullulan by Aureobasidium pullulans HP-2001 with agro-industrial byproducts was investigated. Agro-industrial byproducts from the rice processing industry for the traditional Korean food (AIB-A), apple juice production (AIB-B), and soybean sauce production (AIB-C) were used for carbon and nitrogen source for production of pullulan. Major components of AIB-A were glucose, maltose, maltotriose, and dextran. AIB-A and B were found to be good substitute to glucose as carbon source. Productivity of pullulan with AIB-A and B as carbon source was similar to that glucose. Molecular weight of pullulan produced with AIB-A and B was higher than that with glucose. Major components of AIB-B and C were carbohydrate, protein, fat and ash. AIB-C was also a good substitute to yeast extract as nitrogen source. Some of physiological conditions were examined for the large scale production of pullulan.
