In Bucherer-Berg's reaction of $\alpha$-piperidinoacetophenone with KCN and ($NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$ in dilute alcohol solution to form hydantoin, the expected 5-phenyl-5-piperidinomethylhydantoin was not formed. In this reaction $\alpha$-piperidinomethyl group was eliminated and 5-phenylhydantoin was obtained. According to GC/MS study of the reaction mixture, the one of the chromatograms, which has mole peak 124, was identified as a-piperidinoacetonitrile. Under the pressurized condition, diphenylhydantil was obtained instead of 5-phenylhydantoin, which might have dimerized to the former.

It is known that hydantoin derivative can be synthesized according to the method of Bucherer-Bergs, which employs the interaction of the carbonyl compounds with potassium cyanide and ammonium carbonate in dilute alcohol solution. In a converting study of .alpha.-dietylaminoacetophenone with KCN and ($NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}$ to hydantoin, the attempted 5-diethylaminomethyl-5-phenylhydantoin was not formed. In this reaction diethylaminomethly group was unexpectedly eliminated and 5-phenylhydantoin was obtained, instead of the anticipated compound.

$Pb(Zr,Ti_O_3$계 세라믹스는 우수한 압전 특성으로 인하여 압전변압기 및 액츄에이터, 센서 등 많은 분야에 응용이 되어져 왔다. 그러나, 최근 들어 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 급속도로 많은 휘발을 하는 PbO는 환경 및 인체에 나쁜 영향을 미칠 뿐 아니라 사용 후의 처리도 어려워 선진국에서는 사용을 제한하거나 줄이고 있는 추세에 있다. 따라서, PbO를 포함하지 않은 무연 (Lead-free)계 압전 세라믹스에 대한 연구가 많은 관심을 끌고 있으며 앞으로는E 장래성 있는 하나의 이슈 분야가 될 것이다. 이러한 Pb-based System 세라믹스를 대체 할 재료로서 $(Bi_{1/2}Na_{1/2})TiO_3$나 Tungsten-Bronze type, $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3$ 등이 주로 연구가 되고 있다. 특히, alkali niobate를 기초로 한 $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3(NKN)$은 무연 압전 물질로서 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 그러나, NKN의 주요 성분인 K 의 높은 조해성 때문에 일반적인 고상방법으로는 고 밀도의 세라믹을 얻기 힘들뿐더러 낮은 상전이 온도 때문에 많은 응용에는 제약이 되고 있다. 이러한 세라믹의 단점을 보완하고자 Hot forging, RTGG, SPS 등 과 같이 특수한 소결방법을 사용하여 고밀도의 세라믹을 제작하지만 이 방법들은 제품 대량 생산에 있어 경제적으로나 복잡한 제조과정을 고려할 때 매우 비효율적이라고 판단된다. 그러므로 $BaTiO_3$, $LiTaO_3$, Mg, Ca등을 첨가 시켜 소결을 향상시키고 고밀도를 얻기 위해 많은 연구가 진행 중이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Pb-based계의 세라믹스를 대체할 우수한 특성의 세라믹스를 제작하고자 기존의 $(K_{1/2}Na_{1/2})NbO_3(NKN)$세라믹스에서 낮은 용융온도 때문에 소결하기 어려운 $KNbO_3$를 제거한 $NaNbO_3$에 $LiNbO_3$와 $BaTiO_3$를 추가한 $NaLiNbO_3-BaTiO_3$세라믹스에 $K_4CuNb_8O_{23}$(KCN)을 첨가함으로서 이에 따른 압전 및 유전 특성을 조사하였다.

Kamidojuk-San (KDJS) is known to be effective for treating cardiovascular diseases such hypertension, and clinically applied for the treatment of cerebral palsy or stoke patients. Yet, the overall mechanisms underlying its activity at the cellular levels are not known. Using experimental animal system, we investigated whether KDJS has protective effects on cells in cardiovascular and nervous systems. KDJS was found to rescue death of cultured primary neurons induced by AMPA, NMDA and kainate as well as BSO and Fe/sup 2+/ treatments. Moreover, KDJS treatment promoted animal's recovery from coma induced by a lethal dose of KCN treatment, and improved survival in animals exposed to lethal dose of KCN. Neurological examinations further showed that KDJS reduced the time which is required for animals to respond in terms of forelimb and hindlimb movements. To examine its physiological effects on cardiovascular and nervous systems, we induced ischemic injury in hippocampal neurons and cerebral neurons by middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. Histological examination revealed that KDJS significantly protected neurons from ischemic damage. Thus, the present data suggest that KDJS may play an important role in protecting cells of cardiovascular and nervous systems from external noxious stimulations.

Acetone powder was prepared from raw arrowroots and the polyphenol oxidases of crude enzyme prepared from acetone powder were identified 5 isoenzymes by staining with catechol containing 0.05% phenylene diamine. The crude enzyme was passed through the columns of ion exchangers and gel permeation to fractionate the polyphenol oxidases. The main fraction of polyphenol oxidase appeared to be purified by 94-fold, with the activity yield of 45.4%, and its molecular weight was determined as 38,500 by poly acrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimal pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were pH 7.5 and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The purified enzyme showed a high affinity for catechol and pyrogallol. The Michaelis constant for catechol was calculated to be 16.67mM according to the Lineweaver-Burk method. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by L-ascorbic acid, sodium bisulfite, EDTA and KCN, and totally inhibited, by $Fe^{3+}$ at a concentration of 1mM. However the enzyme was activated by $Zn^{2+}$ approximately 1.7 times at the same concentration.

Exodextranase from Aspergillus ustus was purified by chromatography and characterized by various conditions. The optimal pH of the purified dextranase was 6.5 and this enzyme was maximally activated at $40^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was stable at the temperature below $50^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was markedly inactivated by $Hg^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;KCN\;and\;Co^{2+},\;but\;Ba^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},$ cysteine, EDTA, and ascorbic acid enhanced the activity of the enzyme. The main products from the hydrolysis of dextran incubated with the dextranase were glucose, isomaltotriose and oligosaccharide. When dextran was incubated with the mixture of pullulanase and ${\alpha}-amylase$, it was hydrolyzed into glucose, isomaltose and oligosaccharide. Polysaccharides in the decade teeth powder were hydrolyzed by the dextranase into glucose, isomaltotriose and oligosaccharides. In the hydrolysis of the teeth powder with the mixture of dextranase, pullulanase and ${\alpha}-amylase$, were proved to be similar to the dextran hydrolysates.

KBPTS is the fortified prescription of Bang-pung-tong-sung-san (BPTS) by adding Spatholobi Clulis and Salviae Miltiorrzae Radix. BPTS prescription has been used in Qriental medicine for the treatments of vascular diseases including hypertension, stroke, and arteriosclerosis, and nervous system diseases. Yet, the overall mechanism underlying its activity at the cellular levels remains unknown. To investigate the protective role of KBPTS on brain functions, noxious stimulations were applied to neurons in vitro and in vivo. KBPTS pretreatment in cultured cortical neurons of albino ICR mice rescued death caused by AMPA, NMDA, and kainate as well as by buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) and ferrous chloride (Fe/sup 2+/) treatments. Furthermore, KBPTS promoted animal's recovery from coma induced by a sublethal dose of KCN and improved survival by a lethal dose of KCN. To examine its physiological effects on the nervous system, we induced ischemia in the Sprague-Dawley rat's brain by middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. Neurological examination showed that KBPTS reduced the time which is required for the animal after MCA occlusion to respond in terms of forelimb and hindlimb movement$. Histological examination revealed that KBPTS reduced ischemic area and edema rate and also protected neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus from ischemic damage. Thus, the present data suggest that KBPTS may play an important role in protecting neuronal cells from external noxious stimulations.

The isoenzyme patterns and activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD) were investigated from leaves of Araliaceae plants. Of the eight isoenzymes, two isoenzymes(SOD 4 and SOD 6) were prevalent to leaves of Araliaceae plants. The patterns of these two isoenzymes were most various in the leaves of Acanthopanax senticosus for. inermis, while their activity was highest in the leaves of A. koreanum. These two isoenzymes were respectively identified as Fe-SOD and CuZn-SOD, based on selective inhibition with KCN or$H_2O_2$. The SOD isoenzyme patterns did not differed among stem barks, root barks and leaves of A. koreanum. However, the activities of Fe-SOD and CuZn-SOD were higher in the root bark and in leaves, respectively. Both of Fe-SOD and CuZn-SOD were stable for 1 hr at 30-4$0^{\circ}C$, while unstable above 5$0^{\circ}C$.
