본 연구에서는 염기성 수산화이온을 이용한 TNT의 분해 특성을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 TNT 처리 시 분광학적인 변화 특성을 관찰하고, pH 영향 및 반응생성물에 대해 정량적으로 조사하였다. 실험결과, pH=12에서 가수분해에 의해 TNT 수용액이 갈색을 띄는 파장 400-600nm 범위 내에서 흡광도가 증가함을 관찰하였다. 수용액 상의 pH=12에서 TNT 가수분해 시 pseudofirst-order 속도상수는 $0.0022min^{-1}$으로 나타났으며, 그 반응속도는 매우 느린 것으로 초기 TNT 농도인 $44{\mu}M$이 약 90% 정도 분해되려면 약 1,047min(17.44hrs)이 소요될 것으로 예상되었다. 반응 생성물로는 아질산이온과 포름산이 주로 생성되며, 기타 미량 성분으로 질산이온, 옥살산 등이 확인되었다.

폴리부틸렌테레프탈레이트 (poly(butylene terephthalate), PBT)와 파라아세톡시벤조산 (p-acetoxybenzoic acid, ABA)을 용융 에스테르 교환반응시킴으로써 주쇄 고분자에 강직한 벤젠고리가 도입된 poly(butylene terephthalate-co-oxybenzoate) (PBOT)를 합성하였다. PBT와 ABA를 다양한 조성비에서 중합하는 과정의 속도론적 고찰을 통해 ABA의 단독중합 속도상수와 PBT에의 공중합 속도상수 및 그 비를 구하였으며 각각의 활성화에너지를 구하였다. PBT와 ABA의 조성비를 4/6, 5/5, 6/4로 하고 온도를 각각 250, 260, 27$0^{\circ}C$로 하여 실험한 결과 공중합반응은 ABA함량이 낮고 또 그 전환율이 크지 않을 경우 의사 2차반응으로 볼 수 있었다. 이때의 공중합 속도에 대한 단독중합 속도의 비는 1.08에서 3.17사이의 값을 가졌으며, ABA함량과 온도가 높을수록 큰 값을 가졌다. 이로써 PBT/ABA계의 공중합은 반응온도가 높고 ABA의 조성비가 클수록 ABA의 블록성이 강해지는 경향을 나타내었다.

Methyl methacrylate-butyl methacrylate copolymer (MMBM)-dibutyl phthalate (DBP) films were investigated as a potential topical drug delivery system for the controlled release of nitrofurazone. The kinetic analysis of release data indicated that drug release followed a diffusion-controlled granular matrix model, where the quantity released per unit area is proportional to the square root of time. DBP of several hydrophobic plasticizers selected was found to give the highest release of nitrofurazone. However, hydrophilic plasticizers such as propylene glycol and polyethylene glycol 400 had no controlled release properties and acceptable film formation. The effects of changes in film composition, drug concentration, film thickness, pH of release medium, and temperature on the in vitro release of nitrofurazone were analyzed both theoretically and experimentally. The release rate constant (k') was found to be proportional to DBP content, pH, and the temperature of release medium, but independent of film thickness, and drug concentration in a range of 0.1-0.4% by weight. The linear relationship was found to exist between the log k' and DBP content. The release of nitrofurazone from MMBM-DBP (8:2) films was found to be an energy-linked process. Two energy terms were calculated ; the activation energy for matrix diffusion was 13.45 kcal/mole, and the heat of drug crystal solvation was 27.26-29.34 kcal/mole. Observation of scanning electron micrographs and microscopic photographs showed that the incorporation of DBP in films increased markedly the particle size of nitrofurazone dispersed in the film matrix, comparing with the fine dispersion of nitrofurazone in pure MMBM film alone.

In this study, conventional biofilters packed with flexible synthetic polyurethane (PU) foam carriers were operated to remove toluene from a contaminated air stream. PU foams containing various adsorbents (e.g., zeolite, sepiolite, dolomite and barite) were synthesized for the biofilter media and their adsorption characteristics of toluene were determined. Adsorption capacity of PU-adsorbent foam was in the order of PU-dolomite ${\approx}$ PU-zeolite > PU-sepiolite > PU-barite. During the biofiltration experiment, influent toluene concentration was in the range of 0-160 ppm and EBRT (i.e., empty bed residence time) was 45 seconds. Pressure drop of the biofilter bed was 4-5 mm $H_2O/m$ column height. The maximum removal capacity was in the order of PU-dolomite > PU-zeolite > PU-sepiolite > PU-barite, while the complete removal capacity was in the order of PU-dolomite > PU-sepiolite > PU-zeolite > PU-barite. The better biofiltration performance in PU-dolomite foam was because PU-dolomite foam had lower density and higher porosity than the others providing favorable conditions for microbial growth. The results of biodegradation kinetic analysis showed that PU-dolomite foam had higher maximum removal rate ($V_m\;=\;11.04\;g$ toluene/kg dry material/day) and saturation constant ($K_s\;=\;26.57\;ppm$) than the other PU foams. This supports that PU-dolomite foam was better than the others for biofilteration of toluene.

E. coil ATCC 9637의 균체를 젤라틴과 DEAE-cellulose의 혼합 성형 후 글루트알데히드 가교법으로 제조론 고정화 penicillin amidase의 differential column reactor에서의 반응속도를 논의하였다. 이러한 반응조의 최적 조작조건은 효소충진량 1g, 기질농도30mM(0.1M 인산완충액, pH8.0), 유출속도 4 $m\ell$/min, 온도 4$0^{\circ}C$이었다. 이 최적조건에서 고정화효소의 일반적인 성질을 조사하였다. Km 상수는 4.8mM 이었고 specific activity 308 units/g 고정화 효소이 었다. 또한 고정화효소에서는 기질에 의한 효소반응 저해효과가 보이지 않았다. 이러한 differential column reactor에서는 column내에서의 pH 감소효과 및 외부 화산효과가 없어지기 때문에 이러한 외부적 영향을 받지 않는 고정화효소의 반응 속도론적 연구에 적합함을 알았다.

사과 중 triazole계 살균제 flusilazole 및 myclobutanil의 생물학적 반감기와 출하전 잔류허용기준을 산출하기 위해 안전사용기준에 근거한 기준량과 3배량의 약제를 살포하고 그 잔류량을 조사하였다. 시험기간 중 두 농약의 잔류량은 각각의 MRL 이하로 나타났으며, 사과 중 생물학적 반감기는 flusilazole의 경우 기준량 처리구에서 6.7일, 3배량 처리구에서 6.2일로 나타났다. 반면에 myclobutanil의 반감기는 기준량 처리구에서 13.3일, 3배량 처리구에서 24.8일로 나타나 flusilazole보다 더 긴 반감기를 가지는 것으로 조사되었다. First order kinetics에 근거한 감소지수식을 이용하여 산출된 각 농약의 감소상수는 flusilazole에 대하여 0.0513, myclobutanil에 대하여 0.0244이었으며, 산출된 감소상수들을 이용하여 출하 전 잔류허용기준(PHRL)을 계산한 결과, 안전사용기준을 준수한 농약살포를 가정하였을 때 flusilazole은 수확 일주일 전 0.43 mg/kg, myclobutanil은 같은 시기 0.59 mg/kg 이하로 잔류하면 수확 시 잔류농도가 MRL 이하로 잔류할 것으로 예측된다.

The effect of temperature on the fluorescence quenching of 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-5-(1-naphthyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (MPNO1), 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-5-(2-naphthyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazote(MPNO2), by aniline, and 2-Phenylindole (2-PI) by CCk, in toluene by steady state method and in benzene by time-resolved method have been carried out in the temperature range 30 - 70$\circ$C. The Stem-Volmer (S-V) plots, I$_0$/I against quencher concentration [Q] at different temperanares show positive deviations. The fluorescence lifetimes determined at different temperatures show no systematic variations and the variations being within the experimental error, the average values of lifetimes $ $\tau$ (t) are taken for further calculations. Rate constants such as Stem-Volmer quenching constants K$_sv}$, quenching rate parameters k$_q$ and k'$_q$, static quenching constant V and kinetic distance r are determined using the modified Stem-Volmer equation and sphere of action static quenching model. In order to see whether the reactions are diffusion limited, equations k$_q$ = e$^{-Eq/RT}$ and k'$_q$ = e$^{-Eq/RT}$ are used to determine the values of E$_q$ and E'$_q$, the activation energies for collisional quenching and the values of E$_q$ are 14.53. 17.28 and 16.20 kJ mole$^{-1}$ for MPNO1, MPNO2 and 2-PI respectively and the values of E'$_q$ are 14.62 and 17.73 for MPNO1 and MPNO2 respectively. From the magnitudes of various quantities it has been concluded that the reactions are diffusion limited and the observed positive deviations in the S-V plot are due to static and dynamic quenching.

Although membrane bio-reactor (MBR) has been widely applied for wastewater treatment plants, the membrane fouling problems are still considered as an obstacle to overcome. Thus, many studies and commercial developments on mitigating membrane fouling in MBR have been carried out. Recently, high voltage impulse (HVI) has gained attention for a possible alternative technique for desalting, non-thermal sterilization, bromate-free disinfection and mitigation of membrane fouling. In this study, it was verified if the HVI could be used for mitigation of membrane fouling, particularly the internal pore fouling in MBR. The HVI was applied to the fouled membrane under different conditions of electric fields (E) and contact time (t) of HVI in order to investigate how much of internal pore fouling was reduced. The internal pore fouling resistance (R_f) after HVI induction was reduced as both E and t increased. For example, R_f decreased by 19% when the applied E was 5 kV/cm and t was 80 min. However, the R_f decreased by 71% as the E increased to 15 kV/cm under the same contact time. The correlation between E and t that needed for 20% of R_f reduction was modeled based on kinetics. The model equation, E^1.54t = 1.2 × 10³ was obtained by the membrane filtration data that were obtained with and without HVI induction. The equation states the products of En and t is always constant, which means that the required contact time can be reduced in accordance with the increase of E.

Synthesized Ile-Ala-Val-Pro (IAVP) peptide, which has the highest hypocholesterolemic effect among a number of synthesized derivatives of Ile-Ala-Val-Pro-Gly-Glu-Val-Ala (IAVPGEVA) isolated from 11S globulin of soy protein by pepsin digestion, was selected for investigation in the present study. Using a recombinant Syrian hamster 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR), we studied in detail the inhibition of this enzyme by IAVP and compared the action of this peptide to that of lovastatin, a known competitive inhibitor of this enzyme. The concentration of IAVP required for 50% inhibition ($IC_{50}$) of HMGR activity in given experimental conditions was $340\;{\mu}M$. Kinetic analysis revealed that the studied peptide is a competitive inhibitor of HMGR with respect to both 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), with an equilibrium constant of inhibitor binding ($K_i\;=\;[E][I]/[EI]$) of $61{\pm}1.2\;{\mu}M$ and $157{\pm}4.4\;{\mu}M$, respectively. At the same conditions, $K_i$ and $IC_{50}$ for lovastatin were $2.2{\pm}0.1\;nM$ and 12.5 nM, respectively. Thus, the given peptide interacts with HMGR as a bisubstrate, consequently blocking access of both substrates to the active sites. The achieved results suggest the design of new peptide sequences having a higher relative affinity to binding sites of this enzyme and an enhancement of their hypocholesterolemic properties.

A Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron(NZVI) was modified to build a reactor system to treat nitrate. Shell layer of the NZVI was modified by slow exposure of the iron surface to air flow, which produced NZVI particles that are resistant to aerial oxidation. A XANES (X-ray Absorption Near-Edge Structure) analysis revealed that the shell consists of magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) dominantly. The shell-modified NZVI(0.5 g NZVI/ 120 mL) was able to degrade more than 95% of 30 mg/L of nitrate within $30 hr^{-1}$ ( pseudo first-order rate constant($k_{SA}$) normalzed to NZVI surface area ($17.96m^2/g$) : $0.0050L{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1}$). Ammonia occupied about 90% of degradation products of nitrate. Nitrate degradation efficiencies increased with the increase of NZVI dose generally. Initial pH values of the reactor systems at 4, 7, and 10 did not affect nitrate removal rate and final pH values of all experiments were near 12. Nitrate removal experiments by using the shell-modified NZVI immobilized on a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane were also conducted. The nitrate removal efficiency of the CA membrane supported NZVI ($k_{SA}=0.0036L{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1}$) was less than that of the NZVI slurries($k_{SA}=0.0050L{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1}$), which is probably due to less surface area available for reduction and to kinetic retardation by nitrate transport through the CA membrane. The detachment of the NZVI from the CA membrane was minimal and impregnation of up to 1 g of NZVI onto 1 g of the CA membrane was found feasible.
