A series of wholly aromatic polyhyroxyamide (PHA) copolymers were prepared by direct polycondensation reaction of isophthalic acid and diacids containing bulky units with 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine. The inherent viscosities of the PHAs measured at 35℃ in DMAc solution were in the range of 0.31-0.56 dL/g. The solubility study revealed that the PHAs were readily soluble in aprotic solvents such as, dimethylacetamide (DMAc), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) at room temperature and in less polar solvent such as pyridine. However, the polybenzoxazole (PBO) copoymers were quite insoluble in all organic solvents except partially soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid and partially soluble in NMP containing LiCl. The PBO copolymers showed maximum weight loss temperature in the range of 593-632℃ and high char yields in the range of 65.0-71.2% at 900℃ in a nitrogen atmosphere.

A lab-scale submerged membrane bio-reactor (MBR) with intermittent aeration was carried out for investigating the behavior of soluble microbial products (SMP). The SMP concentration of mixed liquor at Run 1 accumulated immediately at the end of running and biodegradable SMP converted into non-biodegradable SMP, but it did not occurred at the Run 2 and 3. The SMP formation coefficient (k) at the anoxic phase was a little higher than oxic phase, and the lowest k was investigated at Run 3. The combination of biological denitrification with the MBR Process was advantageous in the prevention of membrane bio-fouling.

This experiment was carried out to examine sensory testing for Mozzarella cheese, process cheese, Cheddar cheese and Cheddar cheese made with red pepper, garlic, ginger and welsh onion to develop new cheese varieties which can be prefered by Korean. The chemical composition and sensory testing of cheese were measured. The results were summarized as follows ; 1. Total nitrogen percentages in Cheddar cheese and spiced Cheddar cheeses were similar but those in process cheese and Mozzarella cheese were low. 5% NaCl soluble nitrogen percentages were highest in Cheddar cheese. 5% NaCl soluble nitrogen percentages in each cheese were different. Ripening degree, water soluble nitrogen, TCA soluble nitrogen and SSA soluble nitrogen percentages in each cheese were similiar level. 2. Spiced Cheddar cheeses were more breakdown than other cheese and ${\alpha}_s$-casein breakdowns faster than $\beta$-casein. 3. In the result of sensory evaluation, color score was high in Mozzarella cheese and process cheese. The color score of Cheddar cheese was high in 30's-40's and 50's- 50's. The color score of 10's and 20's was high in Cheddar cheese made with garlic. 4. Odor score was high in Mozzarella cheese and process cheese, too. The odor score of Spiced Cheddar cheeses was high in 10's. 5. Texture score was high in Mozzarella cheese, process cheese and Cheddar cheese. 6. Teste score was high in Mozzarella cheese, process cheese and Cheddar cheese. The taste score of spiced Cheddar cheese was higher in 10's and 20's than that in 30's-40's and 50's-50's.

Our objective was to determine the differences in the rate and extent of dry matter digestion between barley subjected to differing agronomic variables. Two malting barley varieties, Copeland and Metcalfe were seeded at rates of 200 and 400 plants/$m^2$. Each of these varieties received nitrogen fertilizer at rates of 0, 30, 60 and 120 kg/ha, resulting in a total of 20 different barley grain samples. Samples were ground through a 6mm screen and approximately 3 g of each weighed into 50 ${\mu}m$ Dacron bags and sealed. The bags were incubated in three ruminally cannulated Holstein cattle for periods of 0, 3, 6 and 24 h. Using the data obtained from these incubations, rates of digestion were able to be predicted. The soluble fraction ranged from 0.229-0.327, the slowly degradable fraction ranged from 0.461-0.656, and the undegradable fraction ranged from 0.038-0.299. The rates of digestion ranged from 0.127-0.165 $h^{-1}$ and the effective degradability ranged from 0.527-0.757. At the Canora location, the Copeland samples which received 120 kg/ha of nitrogen fertilizer had a significantly lower (p = 0.013) soluble fraction than the rest of the samples at that location. A significant interaction (p = 0.009) was seen between the seeding rate and nitrogen fertilizer application with samples from the Canora location, as well as significant differences (p = 0.029) between nitrogen application rates in samples from the Indian head location. The rate of digestion of samples from the Indian head location differed (p = 0.020) between the two seeding rates, with samples seeded at 200 seed/$m^2$ having a slightly higher rate of degradation. Differences in the effective degradability were seen between the different nitrogen application rates with samples from both the Canora and Indian head locations, as well as an (p = 0.004) interaction between the seeding rate and nitrogen fertilizer application rate. Although there was not a clear correlation between the different variables, both nitrogen application and seeding rate did have a significant effect on the rates and extent of digestion across each of the four locations.

For the assessment of soybean sprouts as a protein food, the sprouts were grown at $15^{\circ}C,\;20^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ with watering four times a day. Change of various nitrogen fractions was investigated both in cotyledon and axis at various growing stages. Total nitrogen content was gradually increased in axis but decreased in cotyledon with growth. Nitrogen loss per sprout was increased from 4.1% at $15^{\circ}C$ to 14% at $30^{\circ}C$ during 8 days growth. Water insoluble protein nitrogen tends to increase slightly in cotyledon and greatly in axis. At high temperature it decreased in cotyledon and increased remarkably in axis. Water soluble protein nitrogen decreased greatly in cotyledon but increased in axis. Water soluble non-protein nitrogen considerably increased with growth, especially in axis and in the high temperature.

Soybean plants inoculated Bradrhizobium japonicum MN 110 were grown in outdoor perlite pots with nitrogen free nutrient solution containing 1.0 mM-P(control) and 0.05 mM-P(stress) and harvested at 28, 35, 42 and 49 days after transplanting (DAT) to examine the effect of phosphorus deficiency on ureide concentration of and distribution to diffrent plant organ in nitrogen fixing soybean plant during the vegetative growth. Total dry mass of control plants increased 8.9 fold and that of phosphorus deficient plant increased 2.7 fold during the experimental period. Phosphorus deficiency reduced total phosphorus and nitrogen accumulation by 80%,40% respectively, at 28 DAT and 93%, 84%, respectively, at 49 DAT. Nitrogen concentration was reduced by phosphorus deficiency in all tissues with leaf and stem tissues affected to a greater degree than nodule and root tissues at every sampling date. Phosphorus deficiency significantly reduced soluble reduced-N and ureide-N concentration in leaf and stem but did not affect those in root. The proportion of soluble reduced-N in leaf was reduced from 60% to 50% but increased from 10% to 20% in the roots. The proportion of ureide-N in leaf of control plants was higher than that in phosphorus deficient plants, whereas, roots of phosphorus deficient plants contained a higher propotion of ureide-N than those of control plants. These indicated that phosphorus deficiency not only inhibit nitrogen fixation of nodules but also restrict the translocation of fixed nitrogen out of the root system into the xylem.(Received April 4, 1997; accepted May 2, 1997)

The contents of insoluble protein nitrogen, water soluble protein nitrogen anti peptides' nitrogen were determined of the samples which were taken in seven and half hours intervals during soybean-koji preparation to study changes of soybean protein, and the contents of total nitrogen and amino nitrogen were measured for the fractions resulting from molecular sieving by using Dowex 50 having various cross linkages for the peptides from soybean-koji extracts. As the results of the studies, The followings were obtained: 1. The contents of insoluble protein nitrogen and peptides' nitrogen are fairy constant at the earlier stage, where the former decreased and the latter increased markedly as mycelia grow, then rate of the decreases and the increases of them become lower at later stage after sporulation. The contents of water soluble protein are also constant at the earlier stage until covering of mycelia over the koji and increased since then until the stage of sporulation and then decreased at the later stage. 2. The amount of peptides nitrogen in each fraction obtained by the molecular sieving was almost constant at the earlier stage and the values in fractions of X-16, X-12, X-8. X-4 and X-2 increased considerably together as mycelia grow. Then the values in the fractions showed almost plateaux, after sporulalion, where the effluent fraction showed markedly increased values throughout mycelia growth.

Periodate-oxidized soluble starch and maltohexaose reacted with ${\alpha}-NH_2$ group of free amino acids and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of peptidyl lysine. The result shows that periodate-oxidized soluble starch and maltooligosaccharides reacted with protein and formed Schiff base between CHO group of oxidized sugar and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of surface lysine of protein molecule. Carbon and hydrogen composition of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ modified with oxidized soluble starch increased and it's nitrogen composition decreased. Carbohydrate contents of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ modified with oxidized soluble starch were 13.2% (pentamer), 13.4% (monomer), and with oxidized maltohexaose were 9.7% (pentamer), 9.3% (monomer) by $phenol-H_2SO_4$ method. Alpha-amino group of N-terminal, and ${\varepsilon}-NH_2$ group of lysine, of sweet potato ${\beta}-amylase$ were reacted with oxidized soluble starch by dinitrophenylation were 70% (pentamer), 73% (monomer) and 33% (pentamer), 26% (monomer), respectively, in comparison with native enzyme.

Nitrogen compounds of Panax ginseng and their biological activities in plant and animal were reviewed. Major nitrogen compounds found in P. ginseng are free amino acids. Water solilble proteins, indouble proteins and peptides. Minor nitrogen compounds are dencichine. Glycolyroteins, amines, alkaloides, methoxy or alkyl pyrazine derivatives, free nucleosides and nucleic acid bases. 4-methyl-i-thiazoltethanol and pyroglutamic acid the contents of total nitrogen and protein in root Increased until 13 years old which was the highest age tinder investigation. Soluble protein content increased with the root weight and was higher in xylem pith than cortex-epidermis indicating the close relation with root growth. Arginine, which covered 58% of total free amino acids, may serve as storage nitrogen. Arginine seems to be changed into proline in rhizome. threonine in stem and again threonine and arginine in leaf. The greater the root weight the higher the polyamine stimulated Polyamine stimlllated the growth of root callus. Physiological roles of other minor nitrogen compounds are unknown although content is relatively high ((1.if) 6.w). Biochemical and pharmacological activities of some nitrogen compounds for animal were more investigated than physiological role there plant itself. Radiation and U.V protective function (heat stable protein). insulin-like activity in lipogenesis and livolysis (adenosine and pyroglutamic acid), depression of blood sugar content (glycopevtide). htmostatic and nellrotoxic activity (dencichine) and, sedative and hypnotic activity (4-methyl-i-thiazoleethanol) are reported. Heat stable protein increased with root age. The traditional quality criteria appear to be well in accordance with biological activities of nitrogen compounds. Chemical studies of nitrogen compounds seem relatively rare, probably due to difficulty of isolation, subsequently the investigations of biological activities are little.

As a way of improving the texture and flavor of soybean cheese, whey-say cheeses were made by coprecipitation of various mixtures of whey, whey powder, soy milk and soy protein powder, and mixed culture of str. lactis, str. cremoris and rennet were added, then the cheeses were cured at $15^{\circ}C$ for up to 10 weeks. Physicochemical characteristics of the cheese were investigated by analyzing pH, titratable acidity(TA), water soluble nitrogen, 10% TCA soluble nitrogen, amino acid composition, beany flavor, color and hardness. The pH of whey-soy cheeses during ripening changed from 5.3 to 4.2 after 5 or 6 weeks and maintained that value while that of soybean cheese maintained a higher pH value. TA of whey-soy milk cheeses was gradually increased to the value of 0.4-0.45 after 8 weeks, but that of soybean cheese reached only 0.2 after the same period. Water soluble and 10% TCA soluble-nitrogen increased steadily during ripening. Hardness of the whey-soy milk cheeses reached maximum after three weeks of ripening and greatest at those made from 3 : 1 mixture of whey and soy milk and that from soymilk. Color of the whey-soy milk chesses was lighter than that of soybean cheese. The bean flavor of soybean cheese was strong and persistent for the whole ripening period. Acid flavor was dominant in the whey-so milk cheese and masked the beany flavor partially.
