In the present investigation, kinetic studies of oxidation of formic acid with and without catalyst and promoter in aqueous acid media were studied under the pseudo-first order conditions [formic acid]T ${\gg}[Cr(VI)]_T$ at room temperature. In the 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) promoted path, the cationic Cr(VI) phen complex is the main active oxidant species undergoes a nucleophilic attack by the substrate to form a ternary complex which subsequently experiences a redox decomposition through several steps leading to the products $CO_2$ and $H_2$ along with the Cr(III) phen complex. The anionic surfactant (i.e., sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) and neutral surfactant (i.e., Triton X-100, TX-100) act as catalyst and the reaction undergo simultaneously in both aqueous and micellar phase with an enhanced rate of oxidation in the micellar phase. Whereas the cationic surfactant (i.e., N-cetyl pyridinium chloride, CPC) acts as an inhibitor restricts the reaction to aqueous phase. The observed net enhancement of rate effects has been explained by considering the hydrophobic and electrostatic interaction between the surfactants and reactants. The neutral surfactant TX-100 has been observed as the suitable micellar catalyst for the phen promoted chromic acid oxidation of formic acid.

Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria의 감염으로 토마토 잎조직에 $\beta$-1, 3-Glucanases와 chitinases가 합성, 축적되었다. 그러나 접종되지 않은 건전한 잎에서는 위의 두 가지 가수분해 효소는 매우 낮은 수준으로 유지되었고, 이 두 가지 효소는 친화적 상호작용에서보다는 불친화적 상호작용에서 더욱 높은 수준으로 존재하였다. 이것은 $\beta$-1, 3-glucanases와 chitinases가 X. c. pv. vesicatoria의 생육에 대한 방어기작으로서 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 시사해 주고 있다. Native PAGE 젤 상에서 $\beta$-1, 3-glucanases를 분리한 결과, 병징 발현이나 저항성 발현에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 생각되는 산성 isoform Ga 1과 염기성 isoform Gb 1의 isoform bands만 확인되었다. Isoelectric focusing을 이용하였을 때, 적어도 pI 6.4와 pI 8.6을 지닌 두 개의 $\beta$-1, 3-glucanases의 isoform을 확인할 수 있었고, 특히 불친화적 상호작용에서 더욱 뚜렷하게 유도되었다. 이것은 병 진전과정에서 X. c. pv. vesicatoria에 대해 저항성 발현에 관여한다는 것을 나타내고 있다. 산성 chitinase isoform인 Ca 1의 활성은 병원균의 감염이 진전되는 동안 감소하였다. 또한 다섯 개의 염기성 chitinase isoform이 감염된 토마토 잎 조직에서 발견되었는데, 특히 토마토의 방어기작에 관여하여 병원화적 균주 Bv5-4a에 감염된 잎에서만 유도, 축적되었다. Isoelectric focusing(IEF)을 이용한 후 적어도 2개의 산성과 4개의 염기성 chitinase isoform이 감염된 토마토 잎 추출액에서 확인되었다. Native PAGE 젤에서 isoform Cb 1에 해당되는 pI 9.5를 지닌 chitinase isoform은 오직 불친화적 상호작용에서만 확인되었다. 이온이 제거된 Triton X-100을 처리하여 renaturation 시킨 후에 SDS-PAGE 젤 상태에서 23 kDa과 26 kDa을 지닌 2개의 chitinase isoform을 확인하였다.

단결정 실리콘 태양전지 공정에서 이방성 습식 식각 용액을 이용하여 기판 표면에 피라미드 구조를 형성하는 것을 텍스쳐링이라고 한다. 실리콘 기판의 표면을 식각하여 요철구조를 만들어줌으로써 셀 내부로 입사되는 광량을 증가시켜 태양전지의 단락 전류 및 효율 향상 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 일반적인 태양전지 공정에서는 요철구조를 형성할 시 따로 마스크를 사용하지 않으며, 태양전지 급 웨이퍼를 절삭손상층 식각 한 후, 강염기성 용액과 알코올의 혼합용액에 담가서 이방성 식각을 실시하여 요철 구조를 형성한다. 본 연구는 기존의 텍스쳐링 공정에서 사용되는 대표적인 용액인 수산화칼륨(potassium hydroxide, KOH)과 알코올의 혼합용액과 사메틸수산화암모늄(Tetramethylammonium Hydroxide, TMAH)과 알코올의 혼합용액에 Triton X-100 계면활성제를 각각 첨가하여 실험을 진행하였다. 식각된 태양전지용 실리콘 기판의 표면은 주사전자현미경(Scanning Electron Microscope)을 통하여 관찰하였고, 분광광도계(UV/VIS/NIR Spectrophotometer)로 반사도 값을 측정하여 기판의 특성을 평가하였다.

The effects of water-and oil-repellent finishes on the deposition and removal of oily soils from polyseter fabrics were investigated in this study. The polyester fabrics treated with three kinds of fluoropolymers(TG-410H, TG-990) were soiled with mixed oily soils and washed by using Terg-O-Tometer at various conditions. It was found that TG-410H and TG-527 treated polyester fabrics reduced significantly the deposition of oily soils than untreated and TG-990 treated polyester fabrics. The removal of oily soils from polyester fabrics was increased in porportion to increasing of surfactant concentration up to a certain point(0.2% owb) but it levelled off above the point. The removal effect was high in the order of TG-990 treated polyester fabrics > untreated polyester fabrics > TG-527 treated polyester fabrics > TBG-410H treasted polyester fabrics. Especially the removal of oily soils from polyester fabrics was more effectively removed in triton X-100 solution. In general the removal of oily soils from polyester fabrics treated with fluoropolymers was increased up to a miximum near 6$0^{\circ}C$ and than decreased above 6$0^{\circ}C$. And efficient removal could be achieved within relatively short time (30min) The removal of oily soils from polyester fabrics was increased in proportion to increasing of pH range up to a certain point(9.5 or 11.0) but it began to decrease above the point. Furthermore the removal of oily soils was increased with th increase of mechanical agitation, but it began to decrease above 160 rpm.

This study examined the difference in the mechanical properties of cotton fabrics treated with nano silver. Nano silver powder, UV-absorber, and DMDHEU are applied to cotton fabrics. The reagents added in a finishing solution were Triton X-100 and $MgCl_2$ $6H_2O$. The mechanical properties of the fabrics were measured by KES-FB system. From these, the primary hand values were evaluated by the conversion equation (KN-202-DS). The results of this study are summarized as follows. The fabric tensile properties and bending properties are increased by the application of nano silver, DMDHEU, and UV-absorber mixed. The values of tensile properties in the warp direction were significantly lower than those in the weft direction. However, the values of bending properties in the warp direction were higher than those in the weft direction. The differences in the values of compression parameters by nano silver coating were unnoticeable. However, the compression energy and resilience of compression in each fabric was increased by DMDHEU treatment. The SMD values of cotton fabrics are decreased by nano silver, DMDHEU, and UV-absorber mixed treatment.

An extracellular levansucrase, which catalyzes the formation of levan from sucrose, from the culture broth of Zymomonas mobilis ZM1 was purified by conventional column purification methods. The final purification yield was 18.3 fold of the crude enzyme from Z. mobilis, with 16.5 % of the enzyme recovered in the preparation step. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 91,000 by Superose 12 gel filtration, and 45,000 by SDS-PAGE, indicating that levansucrase is a dimer. The optimum pH for the enzyme activity was around pH 4.0 for sucrose hydrolysis, and was around pH 5.0 for levan formation. The enzyme was inhibited by some metal ions, such as Hg$\^$2+/ and Cu2$\^$2+/, and 50% of inhibition was observed with 5mM EDTA. The enzyme activity was enhanced by the presence of detergent Triton X-100, but inhibited by SDS completely The enzyme catalyzes the liberation of reducing sugars, oligosacccharides and the formation of fructose polymer(levan). The enzyme also catalyzes the transfructosylation reaction of fructose moiety from sucrose to various sugar acceptor molecules, including sugar alcohols.

The hydrophobic spores of Streptomyces sp. AA8321 isolated from the Antarctic coast displayed demulsification ability. The aerial spores demulsified an emulsion of kerosene/$0.2\%$ Triton X-100 (2:1, v/v) to $50\%$ and $95\%$ within 1 min contact at the concentrations of $5.0{\times}10^7$ and $1.0{\times}10^8$ spores/ml, respectively. A cold shock protein (csp) gene was cloned from the hydrophobic spore- producing Streptomyces sp. AA8321 using PCR. It encoded a low molecular protein with 68 amino acids showing very low homology with previously reported csp genes. Only the sequence of the first six amino acids was just the same and yet others were different. RNA blot analysis indicated that the csp gene was induced by cold shock, i.e., transferring from $30^{\circ}C$ to $10^{\circ}C$, and this cold shock response proposed that the isolated gene be a new type of csp gene.

An expression vector was constructed containing the gene encoding diphtheria toxin A (DTA) which was placed after a T7 promoter. Cytoplasmic expression of the DTA gene resulted in the formation of an insoluble inclusion body. The inclusion body was collected after the complete lysis of the cell, and subsequent washing with 0.1% Triton X-100 released 16~30% of DTA protein from the inclusion body along with other contaminating proteins. The released DTA protein was purified by dialysis. The remaining pellet was dissolved in 8 M urea containing 5% ${\beta}-mercaptoethanol$, and the denatured DTA was renatured by the dilution-dialysis method. The total yield was 35%, and about 5 mg DTA was obtained from 1 L culture. The DTA protein has a free sulfhydryl group exposed to the protein surface, and was shown to have a tendency to dimerize through disulfide formation in the absence of ${\beta}-mercaptoethanol$. The utility of the sulfhydryl group was tested for the construction of recombinant toxins.

This study was aimed to formulate various phospholipid nanoparticles composed of different surfactants and to evaluate the deformability of the phospholipid vesicles as candidates of useful ultradeformable nanoparticles. In vitro deformability of the phospholipid nanoparticles was studied using an extruder under a certain pressure. The sizes of phospholipid nanoparticles, passed volumes, and concentrations of the phospholipids in suspensions before and after extrusion were measured. The deformability indexes were estimated by using passed volumes, sizes of phospholipid nanoparticles and concentrations of phospholipids. Conventional liposomes, placed under a certain pressure of an extruder, showed no passed volume indicating little deformability. Similar to conventional liposomes, phospholipid nanoparticles containing surfactants such as sodium taurocholate, Myrj 45, or Myrj 53 showed little deformability. In contrast, phospholipid nanoparticles composed of Tween 20, Triton X-100, or sodium deoxycholate showed higher deformability indexes than others. Taken together, the deformability of phospholpid nanoparticles could be significantly affected by the type of surfactants. Moreover, these results suggest that the deformability of phospholipid nanoparticles could be modulated by surfactants.

In order to study its biochemical properties, the integrase (IN) protein of feline foamy virus (FFV) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified by two-step chromatography, (Talon column and heparin column), and characterized in biochemical aspects. For the three enzymatic reactions of the 3'-processing, strand transfer, and disintegration activities, the $Mn^{2+}$ ion was essentially required as a cofactor. Interestingly, $Co^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions were found to act as effective cofactors, whereas other transition elements such as $Ni^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $La^{3+}$, $Y^{3+}$, $Cd^{2+}$, $Li^{1+}$, $Ba^{2+}$, $Sr^{2+}$, and $V^{3+}$ were not. Regarding the substrate specificity, FFV IN has low substrate specificities as it cleaved in a significant level prototype foamy virus (PFV) U5 LTR substrate as well as FFV U5 LTR substrate, whereas PFV IN did not. Finally, the 3'-processing activity was observed in high concentrations of several solvents such as CHAPS, glycerol, Tween 20, and Triton X-100, which are generally used for dissolution of chemicals in inhibitor screening. Therefore, in this first report showing its biochemical properties, FFV IN is proposed to have low specificities on the use of cofactor and substrate for enzymatic reaction as compared with other retroviral INs.
