The synthesis of lauryl palmitate from palmitic acid and lauryl alcohol was investigated in organic solvents using lipase. Water-immiscible organic solvent such as hexane, toluenem cyclohexane, and isooctane were found to be suitable of ester synthesis . The effect of water content on the initial rate of conversion was examined . As the content increased, the reaction rate increased. But addition of water in organic solvent decreased therostability of enzyme . The best lauryl palmitate synthesis was achieved with water content of 0.2-0.4% reaction temperature of 4$0^{\circ}C$ and 45$^{\circ}C$ for Candida cylindracea lipase porcine, pancreatic lipase, respectively. when ester synthesis was carried out under the optimum conditions, the conversion yield of palmitate into lauryl palmitate after 70hrs reached 85% and 69 % for the Candida cylindracea lipase and porcine opancreatic lipase, respectivley.

Performance of a continuous cocurrent supercritical fluid extraction column for processing of anhydrous milk fat (AMF) was determined. The extract loading increased and the extraction yield decreased as the superficial velocity of AMF increased. The maximum solubility of AMF in $CO_2$ at 4$0^{\circ}C$/3,500 psig was 0.0195g/g. The increase of the carbon dioxide density enhanced the solubility of milk fat and decreased the cholesterol concentration in the extract. Three operation conditions, such as recycle , reflux, and temperature gradient of extraction column, were tested. More short-chain fatty acvids were extracted by the reflux operation . Longchain fatty acids and thehighest ratio fo long-chain unsaturated to saturated fatty acids were also obtained in the raffinate phase with refluex.

The effectiveness of resting cells of a photosynthetic bacterium, Rhodospirillum rubrum N-1, was investigated on the production of extracellular ${\delta}-aminolevulinic$ acid(ALA). The ALA generating system required 3hr-incubation in the presence of 10mg of resting cells per ml to obtain the maximal yield of extracellular ALA. and also, under this condition the effect of ALA inducers, i.e., 30mM levulinic acid (LA) and L-glutamic acid($C_5$ pathway precursor) was relatively higher than that of produced extracellular ALA($83{\mu}M$). The volume of system and proper cell density appeared to be important factors for the effective production of extracellular ALA.

A calcium-dependent sialic acid-binding lectin has been isolated by thyroglobulin-affinity chromatography from the coastal crab Macrophthalmus Japonicus. This lectin, Macrophthalmus Japonicus lectin (MJL), was eluted with 50mM Tris-HCl, 0.3 M NaCl, 10 mM EDTA, and the recovery yield from the crude protein extract was about 5.6%. The molecular weight of MJL was estimated as 65 kDa in SDS-PAGE both under reducing and non-reducing conditions. MJL induced an agglutination reaction in rabbit, rat, and mouse erythrocytes, but not in human ABO types. This activity was effectively inhibited by sialoglycoproteins such as fetuin, bovine submaxillary mucin, and thyroglobulin.

We have synthesized some 2-(2-benzyloxybenzoyloxy)-and 2-(2,6-dibenzyloxybenzoyloxy)-acetophenones as intermediates for flavone synthesis. The reaction of polyoxygenated 2-hydroxyacetophenones with 2-benzyloxybenzoic acid or 2,6-dibenzyloxybenzoic acid in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and p-dimethylaminopyridine resulted in a good yield$(70{\sim}89%)$ of 2-(2-benzyloxybenzoyloxy)-acetophenones or 2-(2,6-dibenzyloxybenzoyloxy) acetophenones under milder conditions and in shorter time than the previous methods. This new methods using benzoic acids instead of benzoyl chlorides saves one reaction step of acid chlorination in comparision of the previous methods.

1.3-Propanediol as a bifunctional organic compound could potentially be used for many synthesis reactions, in particular as a monomer for polycondensations to produce polyesters, polyethers and polyurethanes. Wastewater containing high concentration of glycerol was used to produce 1,3-propanediol in lower production cost which inturn the quantity of wastewater to be treated. In this study, various attempts were made to increase 1,3-propanediol production under different conditions by Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 15380. 1,3-Propanedio conversion yield and by-product formation were influenced significantly by pH and temperature. The Optimal glycerol and nitrogen concentration for 1,3-propanediol production were found to be 25g/L and 1%(w/v), respectively. The production formation of 1,3-propanediol was optimal at pH 6.0 and temperature $35^{\circ}C$.

The dilute-acid pretreatment/hydrolysis of hemicellulose in oak wood using a percolation reactor was investigated. The experimental conditions ranged 160∼180$^{\circ}C$ and 0.05∼0.2 wt.% sulfuric acid. XMG(xylan+mannan+galactan) recovery was higher when sulfuric acid was used as leaching solvent than water. Also it was important for high XMG recovery to keep leaching temperature higher after reaction. XMG recovery was decreased as the size of wood chips was increased. At an optimum condition (reaction condition= 170$^{\circ}C$, 0.1% sulfuric acid, 1ml/min, 10min, leaching condition=0.1% sulfuric acid, 2mL/min, 20 min), the product yield and the sugar concentration were about 92% and 2.7%, respectively.

An agarase was partially purified from the culture broth of marine bacterium Bacillus cereus ASK202. Optimal pH and temperature of this agarase were found to be 7.0 and 40$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The maximum productivity of agarooligosaccharides was obtained from 0.3 %(w/v) agar by using of 1 unit agarase. As the results of TLC and HPLC analysis, these oilgosaccharides consisted of neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose. Under the optimal reaction conditions, 77.5 %(w/v) neoagarobiose and 6.2 %(w/v) neoagarotetraose were produced from agar and the conversion yield of total agarooligosaccharides was 83.7 %(w/v) after for 2 h reaction at 40$^{\circ}C$.

The conversion of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose by Gluconobater suboxydans was analyzed, and continuous production of L-sorbose was carried out in immobilized cell reactors. L-Sorbose production by high densities of resting cells was more effective than by conventional batch fermentations. Sorbitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme converting D-sorbitol to L-sorbose, did not suffer from substrate inhibition, but from product inhibition. When L-sorbose production was carried out with Ca-alginate-immobilized cells, about 60 g/l of L-sorbose was obtained. On the other hand, when the corn steep liquor (CSL) concentration of medium was reduced to 0.08%, 80 g/l of L-sorbose was obtained. Outgrowth inside the immobilized carriers was thought to block the pores of the carriers so that substrate could not easily diffuse through the carriers. Continuous production of L-sorbose was well accomplished in a bubble column reactor, and 6. 5 g/l.h of productivity and 81.2% of yield were obtained at a substrate feeding rate of 0.08h$^{-1}$ under the optimum conditions with carrier volume of 55% and aeration rate of 3 vvm.

This paper describes the feasibility for a direct production of zinc oxalate powders from zinc-loaded D2EHPA solutions combining the purification and the precipitation in one operation unit. This process has the potential as an alternative to conventional method for the synthesis of zinc oxide precursor particles from the hydrometal-lurgical processes. Zinc was extracted into D2EHPA in kerosene and then zinc-loaded D2EHPA solution was emulsified with oxalic acid-HCl solution to precipitate zinc oxalate powder, which was readily calcined to zinc oxide. The precipitation kinetics and yield were sensitive to experimental conditions. The morphology, size and size distribution of the zinc oxalate powders varied with zinc/oxalate ion riatio, temperature, and the presence of SPAN 60, which affected nucleation, growth, and the emulsion characteristics.
