Abstract

For the purpose of fixing solar energy and utilizing water wastes from food industries for SCP(single cell protein), 170 strains of photosynthetic bacteria were isolated from 56 samples. Among 170 strains, B-Ps-106 strain was selected as the most suitable strain and identified as a variant or a relation of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides and its growth was better under anaerobic light condition than aerobic condition. The optimum conditions of the cell growth of B-Ps-106 were investigated on soybean-curd whey media. The optimum pH for cell growth was $8.5{\sim}9.0$. The optimum temperature was $30^{\circ}C$ and the optimum light density was above $0.72\;cal/cm^2/min$. The most favorable concentration of $K_2HPO_4\;and\;(NH_4)_2SO_4$ was both 0.9 g/l when added to soybean-curd whey media.

일광 에너지를 고정하고 식품공장의 폐수를 이용할 목적으로 56점의 분리원으로부터 광합성 세균 179주를 분리하고 그중 두부유청에서 제일 잘 자라는 균주를 선정하여 동정하고 두부유청을 기질로 하여 배양 최적조건을 조사하였다. 선정균주 B-Ps-106은 Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides의 변종 또는 근연균으로 동정되었고 호기 배양보다 광혐기 배양에서 더 양호한 성장을 나타냈다. 최적 pH는 $8.5{\sim}9.0$이었고 최적온도는 $30^{\circ}C$ 이었고 최적광량은 $0.72\;ca1/cm^2/min$ 이상이었다. $K_2HPO_4$$(NH_4)_2SO_4$ 농도를 달리하여 각각 첨가한 결과 양쪽에서 모두 0.9 g/l 첨가했을 때 비교적 양호한 성장을 나타냈다.
