Cyanides and hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) are major chemical asphyxiants. They have common mechanism of action which inhibit cellular respiration and induce histotoxic hypoxia. They do not generate ATP, and all processes dependent on ATP are stopped. No extraction of $O_2$ from blood decreases AV $O_2$ differences, and the shift to anaerobic glycolysis brings about lactic acidosis with high anion gap. The mainstay of the treatment is rapid treatment with appropriate use of antidotes. However, there are several differences between cyanides and $H_2S$. First, $H_2S$ is not metabolized by enzymes such as thiosulfate. Thus thiosulfate does not play any role in treatment of $H_2S$. Second, $H_2S$ is a more potent inhibitor of cytochrome aa3 than cyanide. Third, $H_2S$ induces more divergent neurologic sequele than cyanide. Finally, $H_2S$ is not absorbed via skin.

SnS films have been prepared by electrodeposition technique onto Cu and ITO substrates using acidic solutions containing tin chloride and sodium thiosulfate with sodium citrate as an additive. The effects of sodium citrate on the electrochemical behavior of electrolyte bath containing tin chloride and sodium thiosulfate were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques. Deposited films were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, optical, photoelectrochemical, and electrical measurements. XRD data showed that deposited SnS with sodium citrate on both substrates were polycrystalline with orthorhombic structures and preferential orientations along (111) directions. However, SnS films with sodium citrate on Cu substrate exhibited a good crystalline structure if compared with that deposited on ITO substrates. FTIR results confirmed the presence of SnS films at peaks 1384 and $560cm^{-1}$. SEM images revealed that SnS with sodium citrate on Cu substrate are well covered with a smooth and uniform surface morphology than deposited on ITO substrate. The direct band gap of the films is about 1.3 eV. p-type semiconductor conduction of SnS was confirmed by photoelectrochemical and Hall Effect measurements. Electrical properties of SnS films showed a low electrical resistivity of $30{\Omega}cm$, carrier concentration of $2.6{\times}10^{15}cm^{-3}$ and mobility of $80cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$.

A study was made on enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in T. concretivorus grown with and without glucose. The present results show that T. concretivorus possesses high activities of pentose shunt pathway and related enzymes, glucokinase, G-6-P dehydrogenase, 6-PG dehydrogenase, and phosphoglucoisomerase, but low activities of enzymes unique to EMP(fructose-1,6-diphosphate aldolase). Although the synthesis of the latter enzymes remains largely unaffected by the growth enviroment, that of the former is stimulated by glucose. And the failure to detect ED pathway enzymes in cells grown in thiosulate or thiosulfate-glucose medium eliminates the ED pathway as a significant route of glucose catabolism in T.concretivorus. These results suggest that pentose shunt pathway performs an energetic role in glucose metabolism by T.concretivorus with EMP as a subway. The absence of ED pathway and the presence of pentose shunt pathway which is the major route of catabolism in T.concretivorus are similar to those of other obligately chemolitho-trophic thiobacilli. The G-6-P and 6-PG dehydrogenase are both NAD and NADP specific, but MAD predominant. However, the 3-PGAL dehydrogenase is only NAD specific. Since the specific activity of 3-PGAL generated from glucose is converted mainly into pyruvate which is channeled into the TCA cycle. All enzymes of the TCA cycle tested and NADH oxidase are detected in the cells of T.concretivorus grown in thiosulfate. The specific activities of fumarase and isocitrate dehydrogenase are high and others are low. The presence of two isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD-and NADP-linked) may have important regulatory function for this organism. The activity of NAD-oxidase, which is implicated in the energy generating metabolism, was very high in the crude cell-free extract of T.concretivorus, recording 55.11 m.mu. mole/min/mg protein. This well coincides with the fact that activities of NAD-linked G-6-P dehydrogenase, 6-PG dehydrogenase and 3-PGAL dehydrogenase were high.

기존 연구에서는 스크러버를 이용한 $NO_2$ 를 제거하기 위해 암모니아 수용액을 적용한다. 하지만 암모니아는 독성 및 악취가 강해 실선 적용에 어려움이 따를 수 있어, 암모니아를 대체할 수 있는 물질을 찾기 위해 이 연구를 진행하였다. 대체 물질로는 수산화나트륨(NaOH), 티오황산나트륨($Na_2S_2O_3$), 요소(Urea)를 사용하였다. 세정액을 제외한 모든 부분은 기존 암모니아를 적용한 실험의 최적 조건과 동일하게 진행하였다. 그 결과 실험에 사용된 세 가지 물질 중 두 물질은 암모니아 용액과 대체가 가능한 것으로 사료되었으며, 최적조건은 각각 NaOH 2.5 %, $Na_2S_2O_3$ 5.0 % 에서 가장 높은 효율을 나타냈다. Urea는 효율이 일정하게 지속되지 않아 대체 물질로는 적합하지 않음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

최근 저품위 (폐)광석으로부터의 금 회수를 위한 침출기술이 각광을 받고 있다. 현재 침출기술은 경제성과 효율성 측면에서 시안을 이용하는 것이 효과적이나 시안은 독극물의 일종으로 환경오염의 우려가 있어 규제 및 관리가 요구된다. 특히 이러한 문제는 최근 주목받고 있는 저비용 침출기술인 Dump 혹은 Heap leaching 적용시 더욱 현저하다. 이를 해결하기 위해 티오황산염(thiosulfate) 이나 할로겐화합물 등 시안을 대체할 대안침출제의 개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있으나 이들은 아직 상용화에 이르기까지 여러 어려움이 있으며 추가적인 연구개발이 필요하다. 저비용 친환경적인 생물학적 금침출도 상용화되고 있으나 이는 대부분 직접 금 침출이 아닌 시안침출의 전처리 산화공정(pre-oxidation process)으로 적용되고 있다. 그러나 생물학적 침출을 통한 직접 금 회수도 이론적으로 가능하며 향후 Dump나 heap bioleaching을 통한 직접 금 침출로 시안이 필요없는 저품위 금 회수 상용화가 시급하다고 판단된다.

다양한 인도 토양에서 Starkey's 배지를 이용하여 9종류의 화학합성독립영양 및 12종류의 화학합성종속영양 황산화 세균을 분리하였다. 분리한 세균은 황을 황산으로 산화시키는 기능이 있으며 생육 중 배지의 산도를 감소시켰다. 분리한 황 산화 세균은 혐기 조건에서는 생육하지 못했다. 화학합성독립영양세균 SGA6 및 JIG 2종만이 포도당을 이용하는 능력이 있었으며, LCH 1종을 제외한 모든 분리세균은 thiosulfate를 에너지원으로 이용하였다. 분리한 세균 중 황 산화 능력이 가장 우수한 것은 화학합성독립영향세균인 LCH이었으며 화학합성종속영향세균인 JIG의 황 산화 능력이 가장 낮았다. 분리한 황 산화 세균을 이용하여 점토를 이용하여 입제형태로 만들었을 때 균의 밀도는 약 $2.5{\times}10^7cfu\;g^{-1}$ 이었다.

An epizootic causing mortality among cultured marine finfishes occurred in 1999 in the province of Kyoungsang, Korea. The disease was characterized by the presence of enterocele, abdominal swelling, and gastroenteritis. The causative bacteria were isolated from olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), black rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli), turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) and the rearing water. These bacteria showed swarming activity on agar plates and yellowish or greenish colonies on thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose (TCBS) agar plates, but no luminescence. The pathogen was identified as Vibrio harveyi based on morphological and biochemical characteristics and the sequence of l6S rDNA. The lethal doses (LD$_{50}$) of olive flounder and black rockfish were estimated to be $1.24\times10^6-1.36\times10^8$ and $3.24\times10^5-5.8\times10^7$ CFU/fish respectively following intraperitoneal injection.

2-Mercaptobenzothiazole was used as a highly selective and efficient carrier for the uphill transport of silver ion through a chloroform bulk liquid membrane. In the presence of thiosulfate ion as a suitable metal ion acceptor in the receiving phase, the amount of silver transported across the liquid membrane after 180 min was 90 ± 3.0%. The selectivity and efficiency of silver ion transported from aqueous solutions containing equimolar mixtures of $Zn^{2+}, Cu^{2+}, Co^{2+}, Ni^{2+}, Cd^{2+}, Pb^{2+}, Bi^{3+}, Fe^{2+}, Fe^{3+}, Pd^{2+}, Mn^{2+}, Hg^{2+}, Sn^{2+}, Ca^{2+}, Mg^{2+}, K^+, Na^+ and Li^+$ were investigated.

Because of varied functions and characteristics, water soluble polymers have lone attracted much intrest in both academic and industrial fields, especially now in pollution problems such as wastewater treatment through ployrneric flocculants. In this regard, the main objective of this study is to synthesize polymeric floccuants containning hydrophobic group in presence of the potassium persulfate/sodium thiosulfate redox system and to estimate their flocculating ability on the kaolin suspension. In order to test the flocculating power of flocculant prepared on the kaolin suspension system, turbidity of the supernatant liquid, residence time, filtration rate of flocculated samples, have additionally been measured from the flocculation experiments and analysed In comparision with the theoretical background.
