Experiments on an upgraded RBC were conducted to investigate its removal efficiencies of $NH_4-N$, coliform group and coliphage in the municipal wastewater treatment. A bench scale RBC, made of stainless mesh media with 5mm high surface protrusions, was fed with settled municipal wastewater containing 13-25mg/l of $NH_4-N$ and 40-75mg/l of TOC at the hydraulic loading of $89l/m^2.d$ and $60l/m^2.d$. It was found that the nitrification effectively occured at bulk liquid TOC concentration of less 10mg/l. The coliform group and coliphage were more than 98% and 90%, respectively.

A number of substituted furodiketochroman derivatives ($lll_{a-f}$) have been synthesized by fusion of aromatic aldehydes with 5-hydroxybergapten and 5-hydroxyisopimpinellin. On the other hand, when the reaction was carried out in a solvent, the corresponding bis-furoccumarin derivatives ($lV_{c-n}$) were obtained. The anticoagulant effect of compounds $lll_{a,b,d}$ and $lv_{b,c,f,g,i,k}$ was tested. They failed to demonstrate any significant effect. The effect of the tested compounds on the arterial blood pressure was studied. Compounds $lV_c$, $lll_d$, $lll_b$, $lV_b$, $lV_k$ and $lV_i$ showed lowering effects on the normal systolic blooc pressure of anaesthetized rats in a decreasing manner.

Discharge pattern and water quality were investigated in the drainage water from about 10 ha of groundwater-irrigated paddy field in the growing season of 2001. Total discharge quantity was about 1,117.2 mm in which about 75% was caused by management drainage due to cultural practice of paddy rice farming and the rest by rainfall runoff where total rainfall was about 515 mm. Dry-day sampling data showed wide variations in constituent concentrations with average of 26.14 mg/L, 0.37 mg/L, 3.54 mg/L at the inlet, and 43.60 mg/L, 0.34 mg/L, 3.58 mg/L at the outlet for CO $D_{cr}$ , T-P, and T-N, respectively. Wet-day sampling data demonstrated that generally CO $D_{cr}$ followed the discharge pattern and T-P was in opposite to the discharge pattern, but T-N did not show apparent pattern to the discharge. Discharge and load are in strong relationship. And based on regression equation, pollutant loads from groundwater irrigation area are estimated to be 288.34, 1.17, and 5.45 kg/ha for CO $D_{cr}$ , T-P, and T-N, respectively, which was relatively lower than the literature value from surface water irrigation area which implies that groundwater irrigation area might use less irrigation water and result in less drainage water, Therefore, total pollutant load from paddies irrigation with groundwater could be significantly lower than that with surface water. This study shows that agricultural drainage water management needs a good care of drainage outlet as well as rainfall runoff. This study was based on limited monitoring data of one year, and further monitoring and successive analysis are recommended for more generalized conclusion.

Background: Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are thought to modify systemic inflammation. The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between PUFA intake, lung function, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: In this study, we used the dataset of 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, in which, a total of 22,948 individuals including 573 participants with a high probability of developing COPD were enrolled. Participants with missing data for the investigated variables were excluded. Linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between PUFA intake (omega-3 [N3], omega-6 [N6], and total) with lung function, and HRQoL. HRQoL was determined according to the European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D). Subgroup analysis of older patients was performed. Age, sex, body mass index, smoking, alcohol, education, residence, total calorie intake, and predicted FEV₁% were adjusted in all analyses. Results: Although lung function was not associated with PUFA intake, EQ-5D index was remarkably associated with N3, N6, and total PUFA intake in a dose-dependent manner. This association was more pronounced in elderly COPD patients. Mean levels of N3, N6, and total PUFA intake were significantly higher in patients having better HRQoL with respect to mobility, self-care, and usual activities. Conclusion: Our results suggest that N3, N6, and total PUFA intake are associated with HRQoL in COPD patients. This association may be attributed to mobility, self-care, and usual activities. Further longitudinal study is required to clarify this relationship.

Preparation for the D-phenylalanine using chemo-enzymatic reaction was investigated. D,L-5-benzylhydantoin was synthesized chemically from L-phenylalanine and converted to N-carbamoyl-D-phenylalanine by the immobilized hydantoinase. The pH and temperature affected the solubility and racemization rate of benzylhydantoin. The optimal temperature and pH of the process were $50^{\circ}C$, 8.5, respectively and the conversion yield hadn't much difference with the hydantoinase content in 10hrs. This produced N-carbamoyl-D-phenylalanine was transformed chemically into D-phenylalanine.

In order to review industrial application of amphoteric surfactants, new types of hydroxy sulfobetaine, 3-(N, N-dimethyl N-dimethyl-N-alkylammonio)-2-hydroxy-1-propane sulfonate and 3-(N, N-dimethyl N-acylammonio)-2-hydroxy-1-propane sulfonate were prepared by the reaction of quaternized sodium 1-chloro-2-hydroxy-3-propane sulfonate with N, N-dimethyl-N-alkylamine and N, N-dimethyl N-acylamido propylamine that have a straight chain radical of 12, 18 carbon atoms respectively in the presence of alkali catalyst. All the reaction products could be separated by means of column and thin layer chromatography, and the yields of all products ranged in $85{\sim}90%$, the structure of them could be confirmed from IR and $^{1}H$-NMR spectra.

Platinum(II) complexes(where, $[Pt(L)_2X_2]$; L=isoxazole(isox), 3,5-dimethylisoxazole(3,5-diMeisox), 3-methyl,5-phenylisoxazole(3-Me,5-Phisox), and 4-amino-3,5-dimethylisoxazole(4-ADI); X=Cl, Br) with planar ligands are investigated on antitumor activity by MM2 and EHMO calculations. It was found that, the net atomic charges of the halogen atoms in all of cis-, trans-isomers are greater than that of the nitrogen with planar form, indicating that ionic character of Pt-X bond is greater than that of Pt-N. Also, the ${\sigma}MO$ energy level($E{\sigma}_{(Pt-X)}$) of the interaction between $d_{x2-y2}$ orbital of Pt atom and $p_x$ orbital of X found to be higher than that of between $d_{x2-y2}$ orbital of Pt atom and $p_x$ orbital of N about all the complexes. It is found that bond strength of between Pt and X atom is weaker than that of between Pt and N atom. The ${\sigma}MO$ energy level($E{\sigma}_{(Pt-X)}$) of trans- complexes found to be higher than that of cis- complexes, as a result of bond strength of Pt-X in cis- and trans-complexes, for all the complexes. The degree of dissociation of X atom in Pt-X bond for trans-complexes are related to antitumor activity and the logIA value of inhibitory activity coefficient(IA).

The denitrification characteristics of free- and gel- D photosynthetic bacteria were studied. At various salt concentrations (0, 1, 2, 3.5%), the maximum specific growth rates were found to be 0.22, 0.22, 0.20 and 0.11 $h^{-1}$, respectively. At lower pH, pH affected the growth significantly. In experiments of PVA beads, the maximum $N_2$ production rate $(dN_2/dt)$ were calculated to be 0.09-0.10 (D= 0.7cm) and 0.09-0.11(D= 1.0cm) ml/h, respectively, and those per bead were 5 and $5.5\;{\mu}l$/h/bead.
