A study of characteristics of greenish pigments from silkwarm excrement by ethanol extraction. Through visible absorption scanning, it showed two absorption peaks at 415 and 657nm, and it was shown to be greenish color. In the presence of light, the stability of pigments rapidly degraded, but in the presence of Al-foil, green and blue cover were very stable. It was shown to be stabilized at the temperature of 7$0^{\circ}C$ until 20days and presence of metal ions, such as Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Zn2+. The pigments was shown to be stabilized in 5% acetic acid solution, but in the presence of lactic acid, citric acid and tartaric acid solution were unstable. On the result of TLC analysis, pigments were shown to be composed of eight color fractions, and main color fractions were F-1, F-2 and F-3. In F-1, F-2 fractions were revealed green color and F-3 fraction were revealed yellow color.

In the course of screening for the tipA promoter-inducing substances, we isolated an active compound, sulfomycin Ia, from the mycelium of a microorganism designated 50634. The producing organism was identified as Streptomyces sp. on the basis of taxonomic studies. Sulfomycin Ia was purified from mycelial extract by silica gel column chromatography, LH-20 column chromatography, silica gel TLC, and preparative HPLC. The molecular weight of sulfomycin Ia was determined to be m/z 1129 (M+Na)$^{+}$ by FAB mass measurement and $^{1}$H NMR spectroscopic analysis. The structure was assigned as a derivative of sulfomycin I with thiazole, methyloxazole, oxazole, and pyridine rings by $^{1}$H NMR spectral data.

V. alginolyticus 138-2, a marine halophilic bacterium, produced an extracellular amylase with a molecular weight of ca. 56,000. The analysis of the digestion products of soluble starch by thin layer chromatography(TLC) revealed that the extracellular amylase of V. alginolyticus 138-2 is a saccharifying-type alpha-amylase. The alpha-amylase activity of the culture supernatant of soluble starch was optimal at pH 6.0 and 45$^{\circ}C$. Ca2+ slightly increased the alpha-amylase activity, whereas Hg2+, An2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Fe2+, and Mn2+inhibited the enzymatic activity. Alkylating thiol group agent, iodoacetic acid did not affect the alpha-amylase activity, but reduced thiol reagents such as dithiothreitol, cysteine, and beta-mercaptoethanol stimulated theenzymatic activity. On the other hand, even if V. alginolyticus 138-2 is a marine halophilic bacterium, its alpha-amylase activity was significantly inhibited by NaCl.

A biosurfactant-producing bacterial strain was selected from diesel-contaminated soil by measuring the oil-film collapsing activity and identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa D2D2. When glucose and olive oil were used as carbon sources, 11.46 g/1 of biosurfactant was obtained. Based on TLC analysis, the biosurfactant produced from P. aeruginosa D2D2 was identified as a glycolipid, consisting of two types of biosurfactants (Type I and Type II). The purified glycolipid reduced the surface tension of the culture from 72 dyne/cm to 27 dyne/cm. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic moiety of the biosurfactant were rhamnose and ${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoic acid, as determined by FAB-MS and NMR analyses, respectively.

This paper performed the basic study for developing the Photodynamic Therapy Equipment for medical treatment. The equipment have been manufactured by using the High Bright Light Emitting Diode and TLC5941 integrated circuit. As a result, 630nm Light Emitting Diode Module was made for the optimization of irradiation condition. And we confirmed the current change according to increase of the level of Light Emitting Diode Module.

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2(KCTC 18012p) produced three kinds of glycolipids on olive oil as a substrate and purified two types of major glycolipids(Rf=0.48, BS-1; Rf=0.65, BS-2) using silica gel chromatography, TLC, HPLC, etc. From the analysis of the chemical structure, the glycolipid of BS-1 was estimated as rhamnolipid($2-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl- {\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\beta}-hydroxyldecanoyl-{\beta}-hydroxydecanoic$ acid; M.W. 650) and BS-2 was detected as rhamnolipid methyl ester($2-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\beta}-hydroxyldecanoyl-{\beta}-hydroxydecanoic$ acid methyl ester; M.W. 664) by FT-IR, FAB Mass spectrometry, $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C$ FT-NMR, DEPT, 2D-NMR (TOCSY, RELAY, NOESY, HSQC, HMBC). In particular, It was found that a marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2(KCTC 18012P) remarkably produced rhamnolipid and rhamnolipid methyl ester simultaneously.

An experimental study is performed to investigate unsteady mixed convection in a horizontal channel with a heat source. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) with thermo-sensitive liquid crystal (TLC) tracers is used for visualization and analysis. This method allows simultaneous measurement of velocity and temperature fields at a given instant of time. Quantitative data of the temperature and velocity are obtained by applying the color-image processing to a visualized image, and neural network is applied to the color-to-temperature calibration. It is found that the periodic flow of mixed convection in a cavity appears at very low Reynolds numbers (Re<0.4), and the period decreases with increasing Reynolds numbers and increases with increasing aspect ratio.

In this study, a new extraction method was developed and two kinds of flavonoids were extracted from the mature fruit of Vaccinium uliginosum L. of China. These two kinds of flavonoids were analyzed by spectral and identified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UV/Vis. The extract of the fruit was total acid hydrolyzed. TLC chromatography was subsequently employed to identify the hydrolysate. Two kinds of aglycone flavonoids, quercetin and myricetin, were identified. At the same time PC chromatography was used to identify the monomer sugar in the flavonoids and it was verified as glucose. HPLC, UV/Vis, and Mass spectrum analyses revealed that the flavonoids were quercetin 3-monoglucosides and myricetin 3-monoglucosides.

The high molecular-weight mucilage extracted and purified from cactus fruit of Opuntia ficus-indica var. Saboten was degraded by the cell-free culture filtrate of a fungus isolated from soil. TLC analysis of the polymeric mucilage after incubation with the fungal culture filtrate confirmed its degradation. When the degradation products were tested for their qualitative reactions with ninhydrin and phenol-sulfuric acid, only phenol-sulfuric acid gave positive development, and ninhydrin did not show any observable color reaction. This coloring reaction suggested the presence of a carbohydrate without an amino group within the mucilage. Analyses by HPLC and liquid gel permeation chromatography on sephadex G-100 also provided additional information on degradation of the mucilage by the fungal culture filtrate. The sequences of ITS-5.8S rDNA from the fungal isolate that was cultivated for the preparation of mucilage-degrading enzyme showed 99% similarity to those of Pestalotiopsis aquatica.

This study examined the dyeability, color fastness and functionality of cotton fabrics dyed with residual parts of cultivated Pteridium aquilinum. UV-Vis absorption spectrum, TLC and FT-IR spectra analysis showed that colorants of Pteridium aquilinum are a mixture of pyrogallol tannin and catechol tannin. Optimum dyeing conditions was confirmed colorant concentration of 500% at $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes. Color fastness followed to washing, rubbing, perspiration and light as 4-5, 5, 4-5(acidic), 3-4(alkaline) and 2, respectively. Deodorization rates of ammonia($NH_3$) and acetic acid ($CH_3COOH$) were analyzed 88.8% and 78.0%. UV protection rate was 94.2% of UV-A and 96.8% of UV-B. UV protection factor(UPF) was 27. Therefore residual parts of cultivated Pteridium aquilinum could be used for a new functional colorant.
