  • Chemical components of domestic Ligusticum chuanxiong HORT and Cnidium officinale MAKINO were analyzed. Proximate analysis of each species showed crude protein 18.5% and 11.1%, crude lipid 5.9% and 6.2%, crude fiber 6.4% and 6.5%, crude ash 5.4% and 6.0%, and carbohydrate 63.7% and 70.2%, respectively. Contents of potassium which was found to be the most abundant mineral in both species were 1.8% and 3.0%, and those of sucrose were 0.4% and 0.3% respectively while neither fructose nor glucose were detected in each species. Major fatty acids in Ligusticum chuanxiong HORT and Cnidium officinale MAKINO were linoleic acid (60.7% and 61.2%), oleic acid (19.9% and 21.3%), palmitic acid (11.4% and 11.3%)(respectively) but there was no significant difference between two species. Glutamic acid was revealed as the most abandant amino acid in both species with 2.5% in Ligusticum chuanxiong HORT and 1.6% in Cnidium officinale MAKINO. Ligusticum chuanxiong HORT and Cnidium officinale MAKINO also were shown to be contained 0.0009% and 0.0005% vitamin $B_1$, and 0.6% and 0.7% tannin, respectively.

  • The structures of molecular species of galactolipids, such as monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG), isolated from wheat flour have been investigated using negative-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry interfaced with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). According to the result of HPLC analysis, MGDG and DGDG were found to consist of mixtures of five and four molecular species, respectively. The galactolipids have been also analyzed to determine their fatty acid compositions, using HPLC/ESI-MS combined with in-source (or cone voltage) fragmentation. HPLC/ ESI-MS is very useful for one-step analysis of mixtures of galactolipids with a small sample quantity. Especially, the carboxylate anions produced in in-source fragmentations of the negative-ion of each component separated by HPLC provide valuable information on the composition of its fatty acyl chains.

  • A study on the water pollution of Gumho river by the relationship between physio-chemical conditions and water quality level by phytoplankton was examined at 6 sampling positions during the period from April 21 to August 11, 1982. Examination of physio-chemical water analysis such as temperature, pH, DO, BOD and biological analysis has shown 1. The average for Gumho river was 6.2 - 7.2 of pH, 2.6 - 9.4 mg/l of DO, 28.8 - 122.4 mg/l of BOD. 2. The phytoplankton identification in this survey period showed, Cyanophyceae is 7 genera 13 species, Bacillariophyceae 11 genera 32 species and Chlorophyceae 17 genera 27 species. 3. The results of biological water analysis were as follows: Banyawol was from oligosaprobic to $\beta$-mesosaprobic. Dongchon and Gumdan was from $\alpha$-mesosaprobic to $\beta$-mesosaprobic, 3rd gongdan was from oemesosaprobic to $\beta$-polysaprobic, Paldal was $\beta$-polysaprobic and Gangchang was repolysaprobic. 4.

  • Isomers based on the RS and EZ geometrical isomerism of the neutral, deprotonated species of HMPAO and their complexes with zinc(Ⅱ) ion have been investigated by semiempirical AM1 optimization method. The Hartree-Fock energies on AM1 geometries o f HMPAO species were calculated with HF/6-31G* methods. Twenty-two isomers of the neutral and twenty isomers of the deprotonated species of HMPAO have been found. The presence of four EE-series isomers of both zinc(Ⅱ) complexes with the neutral and deprotonated HMPAO have been expected and the SREE typical isomer of both types of complexes is the most stable isomer. Energies of complexation of zinc(Ⅱ)/HMPAO isomers with AM1 geometries were calculated by HF/ 6-31G*method. Due to the complexations with zinc(Ⅱ), the structural reorganizations of some isomers of the neutral HMPAO have been occurred. The optimized geometrical parameters of the related conformations have been discussed in terms of their stabilities and existences.

  • The hydrolysis of gallium(III) has been studied using potentiometric techniques under physiological conditions of temperature 37 C and ionic strength 0.15 moldm-3 NaCl and at different metal ion concentrations. Changes in pH were monitored with a glass electrode calibrated daily in hydrogen ions concentrations. The titration data within the pH range of 2.5-9.99 were analyzed to determine stability constants of hydroxide species using the SUPERQUAD program. Several different species were considered during the calculation procedure and the following hydroxides have been characterized: Ga(OH)3, Ga(OH)4- Ga3(OH)112-, Ga4(OH)11+ and Ga6(OH)153+. Speciation calculations based on the determined constants were then used to simulate the species distribution.

  • Molecular geometries for the cationic and neutral species of OXO (X=Cl, Br, and I) are optimized using the Hartree-Fock (HF) theory, the second order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), the density functional theory with the B3LYP hybrid functional (B3LYP), and the coupled cluster theory using single and double excitation with a perturbational treatment of triplet excitation (CCSD[T]) methods, with two basis sets of triple zeta plus polarization quality. The single point calculations for these species are performed at the CCSD(T,Full) level. The harmonic vibrational frequencies for these species are calculated at the HF, MP2, B3LYP and CCSD(T) levels. The adiabatic ionization potential for OIO is calculated to be 936.7 kJ/mol at the CCSD(T,Full) level and the correct value is estimated to be around 945.4 kJ/mol.

  • Multiconfigurational wavefunctions were adopted to study structural isomers, their isomerization reactions and excited states of $HN_3$. In addition to the known linear isomer, two new structural isomers were found. The three isomers can be classified as sp, $sp^2$ and $sp^3$ hybridized species, respectively. The sp3 hybridized species turned out to be the second most stable. Large reaction barriers among these species prevent thermal isomerizations. A low-lying $^3A'$ exists with a relative energy of 13.5 kcal/mol. Dramatic re-hybridization and bond elongation was found in the first excited $^1A"$.

  • The three yolk polypeptides have been isolated and partially characterized. Their molecular weights of YPI, YP2, and YP3 were 48, 000, 47, 000, and 46, 000, respectivelv, as judged by SDS-polyacrvlamide gel electrophoresis. They have different digestion products upon in situ peptide mapping by limited proteolysis. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that their isoelectric points were heterogeneous from 5.92 to 6.54. And thew showed three different antigen-antibody reactions when each polvpeptides is reacted with antisera made to a mixture of all of three. These data reported here indicate that the yolk proteins are consisted of distinctive polypeptides in Drosophlla sp. (robusta species group).

  • Seventy-two lichen specimens of Cetrelia collected in South Korea since 2003 were examined by both phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses. The phenotypic analysis was based on morphological and chemical characters, and the phylogenetic analysis was based on nrDNA ITS sequences. The result suggested that the presence and absence of isidia, soredia, lobules and medullar reaction C+ or C- are the important characters in the taxonomy of this genus. Four species of Cetrelia, C. chicitae, C. braunsiana, C. japonica, and C. pseudolivetorum have been identified in this study. Description of each species is presented with morphological and chemical characters. A key to the Cetrelia species is also presented.

  • Infrared absorption spectra of $\alpha\omega-diphenylpolyenyl$, anions Ph(CH)nPh- (DPn-, n=7, 9, and 13) in the tetrahydrofuran-d6 solutions was measured in the range of 1700 and 1200 cm-1 . The infrared spectra obtained from anions (DPn) showed considerable difference from their neutral species (DPn); their intensities were enhanced at least two orders of magnitude stronger than their neutral species. The in-plane CH bending modes at 1464 and 1375 cm-1 are correspondingly strengthened with the chain length increased, but the C=C stretching at 1541 cm-1 is weakened and frequencies are not changed. We provide an IR evidence for the first time that the bond order or bond alternations of the anions (soliton) are different from those of radical anions (polaron) as well as neutral species.
