The presence of polyphosphate phosphohydrolase (PPPH) and tripolyphosphate phosphohydrolase (TPPH) in Chlorella ellipsoidea were confirmed from the cell-free extract of the algal cells and three forms of PPPH were isolated, purified, and measured Km-Vmax value and inhibitory effect by metal ions, respectively. PPPH was most active at pH7.2, whereas TPPH at pH 7.6. Both enzymes exhibited their maximum activity at $37^{\circ}C$. For the manifestation of catalytic activity, divalent, divalent metal ions are needed, and the best activator for both enzymes was $Co^{++}\;ions\;(10^{-3}M)$. These enzymes were inhibited by $Hg^{++}\;ions\;(10^{-3}M)$ considerably. PPPH from Chlorella ellipsoidea was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, and some properties of the three different fraction with PPPH activity $(PPPH_1,\;PPPH_2,\;and\;PPPH_3)$ were found, i.e, PPPH has multiple form. The Km values of $PPPH_1,\;PPPH_2,\;and\;PPPH_3$ obstained were $6.25{\times}10^{-4}M,\;10^{-4}M-4/M,\;and\;3.33{times}10^{-4}M$ and Vmax were 3.33 mM/min, 3.33 mM/min, and 2.67 mM/min, respectively. It was shown that the types of inhibition of $Hg^{++} on the activities of three forms of PPPH were competitive inhibition.

Water temperature, salinity and density on egg development of the sunray surf clam, Mactra chinensis were investigated for artificial seedling production. The required time from fertilization to D-shaped larvae were 33.8 hours in $18^{\circ}C$, 20.6 hours in $23^{\circ}C$, 18.2 hours in $28^{\circ}C$ and 15.0 hours in $33^{\circ}C$. The development duration was reduced with increasing temperature. The relationships between temperature and the required time from egg to each developmental stage were described as follows: 2-cell, 1/h = 0.1051WT - 1.4782; 8-cell, 1/h = 0.037WT - 0.3686; gastrula, 1/h = 0.008WT - 0.0521; trochophore, 1/h = 0.0041WT - 0.0235; D-shaped larva, 1/h = 0.0024WT - 0.0102. Biological minimum temperature for the egg development was estimated to be $8.0^{\circ}C$ in average. The possible range of temperature for the development of D-shaped larvae was $18-28^{\circ}C$ and optimum of water temperature for the development of egg was $23^{\circ}C$. The possible range of salinity for the development of D-shaped larvae was 20-35 psu and optimum of salinity for the development of egg was 30-35 psu over 25 psu at least. The density of fertilized egg was below 40 per 1 ml in rearing seawater for elevating the development rate from fertilized egg to D-shaped larva.

The measurement of pH in the rhizosphere soil was conducted to clarify whether the growth of pokeberry plants affect the acidity of rhizosphere soil in two environmentally contrasting area Ulsan and Chongju city. The rhizosphere pH between 5.25 and 5.33 was shown in the pokeberry stand at Mt. Boomo located at Chongju. The rhizosphere pH of pokeberry stands at Mt. Bongdae, Mt. Sinsun and Mt. Totchil was below 5.0, and did not differ with depth and distance from the main axis of root. At Mt. Bongdae, however, the pH in the rhizosphere soil was significantly changed with soil depths though that was not changed horizontally. The rhizosphere pH at top soil was lower than that at subsoil, which indicates the fact that soil acidification at Mt. Bongdae was not caused by pokeberry plants. Furthermore, the rhizosphere pH did not change with the growth of pokeberry plants. These results indicate that the hypothesis that pokeberry plants acidify local soil environment should be reconsidered.

The Kinetics of hydrolysis of styrylphenylsulfone derivatives in 50% methanol-water at 25$^{\circ}$C and ionic strength of 0.10 was investigated by UV spectrophotometry in the pH range of 0.0-14.0. The rate equations, which can be applied over a wide pH range, were obtained. The Hammett rho constants for the hydrolysis are 1.85 at pH 7.0 and 1.54 at pH 13.0, respectively. On the basis of the evidence, it is proposed that the general base-catalysis occurs in the hydrolysis of styrylphenylsulfone derivatives; above pH 11.0, Michael type nucleophilic addition take place, while below pH 9.0, the reaction is initiated by addition of water and from pH 9.0 to pH 11.0 these two reactions occur com-petitively.

The effects of mushrooms such as Lentinus edodes and Pleurotus ostreatus on anti-cancer activity through in vivo and in vitro experiments were powders of protein-bound polysaccharides in mushrooms were solubilized in 0, 5, 25 mg/kg saline, respectively and were used in vitro experiments. The in vivo experiments were carried out as followed: i) anti-cancer activities on Leukemia $(L_{1210})$, Hepatlicus cancer $(H_{22})$ and Sarcoma180/(S180), and ii) the effect on immune system through changes in intestine weight and the number of hemolytic plague forming cells. Protein-bound polysaccharides of all showed anti-cancer activity on $L_{1210}$ and fruit body of Lentinus edodes 25 mg/kg treatment group showed the highest inhibition rate (86%). Pleurotus ostreatus mycelial in medium of cultivate 25 mg/kg treatment. Fruid body of Lentinus edodes 25 mg/kg treatment group showed the highest inhibition rate (86% and 71%, respectively) on $H_{22}$ among them. The inhibition rates of fruit body and mycelial of Lentinus edodes 25 mg/kg treatment groups on S180 were 33.9% and 30.9%, respectively. Each samples of 50, 100, 200, $400\;{\mu}g/{\mu}L$ on in vitro cell toxicity test did not show significantly different cell death rates at P<0.05. In immune test, weights of liver and spleen were increased according to increase in conc. but were not significantly different at P<0.05. The weights of thymus were heavy in fruit body and mycelial of Lentinus edodes treatment group but were not significantly different at P<0.05. Hemolytic plague forming cells with antibody formation capability were significantly high in fruit body and mycelial of Lentinus edodes treatment samples.

Effects of stress on the low salinity stress were examined in the pacific abalone Haliotis discus discus. Changes in survival rate, hemolymph count, antioxidant enzyme activities (catalase: CAT and superoxide dismutase: SOD), respiratory burst activity, phenoloxidase activity, lysozyme activity and expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA were measured 0, 3, 6, 12, 24 or 48hours after low salinity treatment with 25, 30, 33 and 35 psu. Survival rates of pacific abalone were 100% at 33 and 35 psu, but 93 and 97% at 25 and 30 psu for 48 hours, respectively. Hemolymph counts decreased in the time elapsed-dependent way at all of the experimental groups. At low salinity, 25 and 30 psu, SOD and CAT activity increased compared to the experimental group of 33 psu. Moreover, respiratory burst activities of the pacific abalone seemed to have no effect on low salinity stress at any experimental group. However, phenoloxidase activity is an important component of the defence against pathogen that was decreased in a reduction of salinity dependent way. Lysozyme activity also immediately reduced at 25 psu experimental group for 48 h. The HSP70 mRNA was weakly expressed at 33 psu, but strongly detectable at 25 psu experimental group. The HSP 70 mRNA expression in gill increased in the time elapsed-dependent way at 25 psu experimental group and then recovered at 48 h. These results suggest that low salinity stress give rise to inhibitory action of immune system as a result of the decrease of phenoloxidase and lysozyme activity in the pacific abalone, especially.
