(C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ has been prepared by the reaction of C₄H₄N₂ with CrO₃ in water. (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ was identified by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis and TG-DTA-TMA system. The oxidation of benzyl alcohol by (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ in organic solvents showed that the reactivity increased with the increase of the dielectric constant. The oxidation of alcohols was examined by (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ in CH₂Cl₂. As a resuit, (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ was found as efficient oxidizing agent that converted benzylic alcohol, allylic alcohol, saturated primary alcohol, secondary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones(70%~96%). The selective oxidation of alcohols was also examined by (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ in CH₂Cl₂. (C₄H₄N₂H)₂Cr₃O₁₀ was selective oxidizing agent(10%~96%) of benzylic alcohol, allylic alcohol, saturated primary alcohols in the presence of secondary ones.

Allyl alcohol (2-propen-l-ol), found in considerable amounts in heated garlic, was able to discriminate yeasts from bacteria and was approximately three orders of magnitude more inhibitory towards yeasts than bacteria. The average minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of allyl alcohol for bacteria and yeasts was 5.0% and 0.0056%, respectively. The unsaturated primary alcohols, including allyl alcohol and 2-buten-l-ol, seemed to work differently from all the other saturated alcohols and unsaturated secondary alcohols in inhibiting various yeasts. An alcohol dehydrogenase-negative (ADH$^-$) strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was as resistant to allyl alcohol as various bacteria, exhibiting an MIC of 5.0%. The unsaturated primary alcohols were apparently oxidized into the corresponding unsaturated aldehydes before they inhibited the yeasts.

Xanthomonas campestris M12 carrying OCT plasmid which could dissimilate octane was able to utilize n-alkanes of eight to sixteen carbon atoms via the capacity of this plasmid. M12 strain could utilize terminal oxidation products of these primary, alkanes, alcohols, aldehydes and fatty acids but not hexanoic acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid and heptanal. This strain also biodegraded n-alkanes by monoterminal or diterminal oxdation of straight-chain fatty acids, and branched-chain alkane.

The approximate rates and stoichiometry of reaction of excess dipyrrolinoaluminum hydride (DPAH) with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under standardized conditions (tetrahydrofuran, 0, reagent : compound=4 : 1) were examined in order to define the characteristics of the reagent for selective reductions. The reducing ability of DPAH was also compared with that of bis(diethylamino)aluminum hydride (BEAH). The reagent appears to be stronger than BEAH, but weaker than the parent reagent in reducing strength. DPAH shows a unique reducing characteristics. Thus, the reagent reduces aldehydes, ketones, esters, acid chlorides, epoxides, and nitriles readily. In addition to that, ${\alpha},\;{\beta}$-unsaturated aldehyde is reduced to the saturated alcohol. Quinone are reduced cleanly to the corresponding 1,4-reduction products. The examination for possibility of achieving a partial reduction to aldehydes was also performed. Both primary and tertiary aromatic carboxamides are converted to aldehydes with a limiting amount of DPAH. Finally, disulfides and sulfoxides are readily reduced to thiols and sulfides, respectively.

The objective of this study was to investigate the patterns of protein leaching to an external phase during an ethyl acetate-based, double emulsion microencapsulation process. An aqueous protein solution (lactoglobulin, lysozyme, or ribonuclease; $W_1$) was emulsified in ethyl acetate containing poly-d,l-lactide-co-glycolide 75:25. The $W_1/O$ emulsion was transferred to a 0.5% polyvinyl alcohol solution saturated with ethyl acetate $(W_2)$. After the double emulsion was stirred for 5, 15, 30, or 45 min, additional 0.5% polyvinyl alcohol $(W_3)$ was quickly added into the emulsion. This so-called quenching step helped convert emulsion microdroplets into microspheres. After 2-hr stirring, microspheres were collected and dried. The degree of protein leaching to $W_2$ and/or $W_3$ phase was monitored during the microencapsulation process. In a separate, comparative experiment, the profile of protein leaching to an external phase was investigated during the conventional methylene chloride-based microencapsulation process. When ethyl acetate was used as a dispersed solvent, proteins continued diffusing to the $W_2$ phase, as stirring went on. Therefore, the timing of ethyl acetate quenching played an important role in determining the degree of protein microencapsulation efficiency. For example, when quenching was peformed after 5-min stirring of the primary $W_1/O$ emulsion, the encapsulation efficiencies of lactoglobulin and ribonuclease were $55.1{\pm}4.2\;and\;45.3{\pm}7.6%$, respectively. In contrast, when quenching was carried out in 45 min, their respective encapsulation efficiencies were $39.6{\pm}3.2\;and\;29.9{\pm}11.2%$. By sharp contrast, different results were attained with the methylene-chloride based process: up to 2 hr-stirring of the primary and double emulsions, less than 5% of a protein appeared in $W_2$. Afterwards, it started to partition from $W_1\;to\;W_2/W_3$, and such a tendency was affected by the amount of PLGA75:25 used to make microspheres. Different solvent properties (e.g., water miscibility) and their effect on microsphere hardening were to be held answerable for such marked differences observed with the two microencapsulation processes.

The morphological and fine structural changes during the oogensis of Clonorchis sinensis were studied on the developing ovums in the ovary and ootype with electron microscope. Adult worms were removed from the hepar of the which and previously infected with metacercariae of Clonorchis sinensis. The ovary including the Mehlis' glands and an ootype from adult worm was prefixed for 1-2 hours in 1.25% glutaraldehyde buffered with 0.2M cacodylate at PH 7.2, secondarily fixed for 30 minutes in potassium bicromate and postfixed for an hour in 1% osmic acid buffered with 0.4M cacodylate at PH 7.2. After fixation tissues were dehydrated in an alcohol series, embedded in Epon 812 from propylene oxide and stained with saturated uranyl acetate and $Pn(NO_3)_2$ solution. Material was examined with a Hitachi HS-7S electron microscope. The periphery of the ovary, except for the posterior region, is made up of oogonia. As the oogonia divide they proliferate primary oocytes toward the central part of the ovary. After a period of growth the primary oocyte leaves the ovary and is penetrated by a sperm in the ootype. Sperm penetration immediately activates the primary oocyte to resume its meiotic activity. After the oocytes meiotic activity is completed, the pronuclei fuse to form a single cleavage nucleus which possesses two nucleoli. As the oocytes develop their cytoplamic materials are abundant; small mitochondria are abundant and often their profiles are more unmerous in one part of the cytoplasm than elsewhere; the granular endoplasmic reticulum becomes alveolar-sac form after it leaves the ovary it becomes stratified form. The reticulate Golgi apparatus is apparent in the developed oocyte. A little of cortical granules are distributed inside of the plasma membrane I oogonia and large quantity of cortical granules are arranged just inside of the plasma membrane of the primary oocyte and after fertilization they are disappeared with broken out.

Differences in the amount and chemical characteristics of the epicuticular waxes on rice leaves were studied for the active tillering and heading stages of rice varieties differing widely in gross leaf-surface property and genetics. The amount of waxes on surfaces of rice leaf-blades was determined by extraction with chloroform and chemical composition of the waxes was characterized by thin layer chromatography, gas liquid chromatography and infrared spectrophotometry. The amount of waxes varied by variety and significantly with growth stage. The amount at the heading stage was 1.7 to 3.6 mg/g fresh weight of leaves, which was two to three times as much as that at the tillering stage of 0.8 to 1.8 mg/g fresh weight. The waxes consisted of seven chemical classes, namely diols, fatty acids, fatty alcohols, fatty aldehydes, fatty esters, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Diols and unsaturated hydrocarbons were identified as new chemical classes of the rice epicuticular waxes. The polar constituents such as dials, fatty acids and fatty alcohols and the non-polars such as fatty aldehydes, fatty esters, and saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons were identified at the heading stage, but at the tillering stage only the non-polar compounds were identified. In the carbon numbers (C) of the chemical classes, diols were composed entirely of C30 and acids were mainly of C30 and C31. In alcohols, primary alcohols were composed of C13 and C32, and the secondary alcohols were of C14, C16 and / or C30 regardless of the rice varieties. The acid portion of fatty esters, mainly composed of C22 and C23, showed low cabon numbers compared with the aldehydes. The alcohol portion of them showed a wide distribution in carbon numbers from C13 to C26 depending on the rice varieties. Hydrocarbons had odd carbon numbers, consisting mainly of C29 and C31.
