  • To study the tolerant capacity of anaerobic granular sludge (AGS) to oxygen using semi -dynamic batch experiment, the aerating time, pH of the basal media, reductive inorganic materials, microorganism, and microorganism metabolite were investigated. When the aerating time was higher or lower than 0.5 h, the producing gas activity of sludge was lower than that of the control. The oxygen tolerance of the experimental sludge was the highest at the initial pH 7.2. The producing gas activity of sludge I was higher than that of sludge II. And storage at $4^{\circ}C$ can low the lose of the oxygen tolerance capacity of granular sludge. The producing gas activity of sludge was the highest when KI was added. The growth of aerobic microorganisms and some metabolite could increase the producing gas activity of granular sludge.

  • In this study, the microalga Neochloris oleoabundans was cultivated in a sustainable manner using diluted anaerobic digestate to produce biomass as a potential biofuel feedstock. Prior to microalgae cultivation, the anaerobic digestate was characterized and several pretreatment methods including hydrogen peroxide treatment, filtration, and supernatant extraction were investigated and their impact on the removal of suspended solids as well as other organic and inorganic matter was evaluated. It was found that the supernatant extraction was the most convenient pretreatment method and was used afterwards to prepare the nutrient media for microalgae cultivation. A bench-scale experiment was conducted using multiple dilutions of the supernatant and filtered anaerobic digestate in 16 mm round glass vials. The results indicated that the highest growth of the microalga N. oleoabundans was achieved with a total nitrogen concentration of 100 mg N/L in the 2.29% diluted supernatant in comparison to the filtered digestate and other dilutions.

  • Biofiltration can effectively remove both organic and inorganic air pollution compounds from both industrial and public sources. However, for the optimal biofiltration performance, it is necessary to gain a better understanding of the inner environment and destruction mechanisms within a biofilter. The effects of operational factors on removal efficiency was studied. Generally, removal efficiency decreases as the loading rate increases. Temperature, as one of the key factors that affect biofiltration design and performance, was also investigated. Conceptually, the biofilter reactor of this paper was divided into five different consecutive stages. The more ethylbenzene COD degraded at each stage, the higher the temperature increases observed compared to the temperatures of the previous stages. It was observed that for every 1 kg of ethylbenzene COD degraded per cubic meter of biofilter media, there was generally a 0.41$^{\circ}C$ increase in the temperature of that stage.

  • Ultrasonic relaxation measurements for imidazole and its derivative in phosphate buffer exhibit a high peak of absorption at neutral pH. Near neutral pH, protolysis and hydrosis may be neglected and the essential reaction only consists of a direct proton-exchange. The kinetics constants and the volume changes for the proton transfer reaction with the protonated imidazole and 2-methylimidazole have been determined at 25℃. The kinetics constants are 7.2×108s-1M-1for imidazole and 1.7×108s-1M-1 for 2-methylimidazole. The kinetics constants are used to estimate the spectrum of relaxation times and acoustic relaxation amplitude associated with intermolecular and intramolecular proton-exchange reactions in bilogical media. It is concluded that the magnitude of the acoustic absorption reasonalbly attributable to the perturbation of proton-transfer equilibria between imidazole and inorganic phosphate is comparable in magnitude with the acoustic absorption observed in some intact tissues.

  • Phytases (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate phosphohydrolase; EC 3.1.3.8) are enzymes which catalyze the hydrolisys of phytate into myo-inositol and inorganic phosphates. Phytases are found in plants and a variety of microorganisms. Aspergillus species were treated with 254 nm of UV irradiation for the screening of phytase overproducing mutant strains. At 15 minute irradiation, the survivals of population were less than 5%, and UV irradiation time was decided at 20 minute for the isolation of mutant strains. Four UV mutant strains in A. oryzae (YUV-47, -169, -341, -511) and six in A. ficuum (FUV-17, -36, -69, -193, -317, -419) were isolated on PSM media containing ammonium phosphate. The specific enzyme activities of A. ficuum mutants are 110 to 140% higher than that of wild type.

  • Zephyranthes candida, Narcissus pseudonarcissus and Crinum asiaticum pollen were placed near their pistil parts respectively on agar cultural media(microslides) containing 10% sucrose and 100mg/l botic acid plus 1% agar with or without calcium and some other calciumsupporting inorganic salts. If fresh pistils (100% moisture) were used pollen grew toward their pistil parts, showing "positive" tropism. This was also true when combinations among three different species were made. Pollen tubes grew away from the pistils if they were dried (below 10% moisture), showing "negative" tropism. Pollen could not show any tropic growth and thus grew at random of all directions if the pistil parts were incompletely dried (approximately 50% moisture). The similar tropic responses of pollen-tube growth with the three species could be demonstrated with etiehr wet or dried tooth-pick segments. Calcium jons in the basic medium merely promated pollen-tube growth and so either "positive" or "negative" tropism became rather distinctive, but they were not tropically active. Pollen tubes grow toward pistil parts with more moisture content and seem to be hydrotropically sensitive. This was assumed due to the cohesive force existing in water molecules.esive force existing in water molecules.

  • A new and efficient synthesis of the novel bioactive bis(benzopyrano) fused dihydropyridines is described. The conventionally developed route is a two step multicomponent condensation reaction. This is latter modified by a one pot microwave (MW) assisted reaction using inorganic solid support via the arylidene derivative intermediate. With this environmentally benign approach, the reaction time is brought down from hours to minutes along with a yield enhancement. Furthermore, the role of different solid supports is studied and it is concluded that the acidic alumina is the best solid support for the present investigation.

  • Ginseng root explants and calli induced from selected cell lines were cultured on modified Murashige and Skoog's media supplemented with different concentrations of organic or inorganic compounds and plant growth requlators to clarify the effects of chemical composition and plant growth regulators in the medium on the growth of ginseng calli and the production of ginseng saponin. For optimum growth of calli, the concentrations of 2, 4-D and sucrose were the range of 1 to 3 mg/${\ell}$l and 1 to $3\%,$ respectively. And it was clarified that sucrose, nitrogen, phosphate, calcium, magmesian plant growth regulators and their concentrations influcenced the relative biosynthesis of saponin in tissue cultures of Panax ginseng. The patterns of ginsenosides, pharmacologically useful component, were different among the cell lines and contents of ginsenosides were much higher in selected cell lines than in original cell line.

  • 현재 국내에서 농가에 보급되는 플러그 묘중 가지과 작물의 토마토와 박과작물의 오이, 참외, 수박은 평균 70% 이상이 연작에 의한 토양전염성 병해를 회피할 목적 등으로 접목육묘를 한다. 접목작업 후 대목 또는 접수용으로 사용된 상토의 일부는는 전량 폐기되는데 이를 재사용하려는 시도가 일부 육묘장에서 이루어지고 있으나 대목용으로 사용되었던 상토는 병발생 위험성은 물론 물리성과 화학성이 신규상토와 달라 육묘 관리에 많은 문제점이 상존하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 시판용 상토(NPM)와 과채류 대목용으로 1회 사용한 후에 재사용을 위해 증기 소독된 상토(UPM)의 이화학적 특성과 이들 상토가 과채류 묘소질에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 플러그 상토의 재활용을 위한 기초자료를 얻고자 수행하였다. 토양삼상계를 이용하여 고상용적, 기상용적, 입자밀도, 공극율, 용적밀도 등 상토의 물리적 특성을 조사하였고, 화학적 특성은 토양분석기를 이용하여 $NO_3$-N, $P_2O_5$, K, Mg, Ca, $SiO_2$, CEC, 유기물 함량 등을 조사하였다. 상토의 이화학적 특성을 비교한 결과 UPM이 NPM보다 공극율은 25%, 보수력은 15% 정도 낮았으나, 용적 및 입자밀도는 2배 이상 높아 단위 용적당 상토무게도 2.5배 무거운 것으로 나타났으며, pH와 EC는 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 양이온치환능력은 재사용 상토가 40% 정도 낮았다. 오이와 토마토 재배 결과 신규 상토에 비해 재사용 상토의 무기이온의 흡수능력과 묘소질이 전반적으로 불량하여 육묘상토의 재활용을 위해서는 재사용 상토의 물리성을 개선하기 위한 조치가 필요하다고 판단되었다.

  • 천연 억새 1년, 2년, 3년생의 화학성분 분석결과 인산은 증가하는 반면 칼슘과 칼리는 낮아지는 경향이었고 총 질소는 2년생 억새에서 증가하였고, 총 탄소는 3년생 억새에서 급격히 증가하는 경향으로 버섯배지의 이용성이 높게 평가되었다. 억새의 발효조건은 미강20%를 혼합할 경우 발효는 5일부터 5일간에 지속되고 이때 온도는 $50-55^{\circ}C$로 유지되어 고온성 미생물 군이 형성됨을 알 수 있었고 처리효과 구명은 미강20% 첨가발효배지가 무처리 억새배지보다 수량이 60% 향상되었다. 느타리봉지재배의 억새배지는 포플러톱밥50%의 포플러톱밥 20%를 억새발효배지 20%로 대체한 혼합배지인 포플러톱밥30%, 억새발효배지20%, 비트펄프30%, 면실박20% 배지를 개발하였다.
