유전자 재조합 균주의 발효에 있어서 플라스미드의 안정성과 발효공정의 최적화에 대해 개략적으로 서술하였다. 클론된 DNA의 발현은 플라스미드의 안정성을 크게 저해하며, 저하된 플라스미드의 안정성은 재조합 균주의 생산성을 많이 떨어뜨린다. 최적 발효 조건은 각각의 숙주-벡터 시스템, 사용한 배지, 생성물 등에 따라 크게 변한다. 동일한 숙주-벡터 시스템의 경우도, 사용하는 배지에 따라 온도, 희석률 또는 성장속도에 의존하는 정도가 달라지고 또 최적값도 다 변한다. 또한 발효조건의 최적화가 균체 내 플라스미드의 자기복제,mRNA로의 전사, 단백질로의 translation, 더 나아가 미생물 전체의 생리와 밀접하게 관련이 있다.

Bifidobacterium strain was isolated from the feces of brast fed infants. The isolated strain was identified as Bifidobacterium longum by 16S rRNA sequence analysis and named as Bifidobacterium SH2. The MRS medium was modified to obtain high density cells of Bifidobacterium SH2. The optimal medium was determined to be 50 g/L lactose, 10 g/L beef extract, 10 g/L peptone, 5 g/L yeast extract, 7 g/L sodium acetate, 2 g/L ammonium citrate, 2 g/L disodium phosphate,1 g/L tween 80, 0.2 g/L MnSO$_4$ and 0.5 g/L L-cysteine. The pH and temperature were optimized as 5.0 and $37^{\circ}C$, respectively. Through out the optimization of medium composition and culture conditions, the dry cell weight and viable cell count were 2.5 times and 1.8 times higer than those in MRS medium, respectively.

In this present study, Aspergillus niger NRRL 567 was cultivated on an inert support material and the effects of various fermentation parameters including temperature, nutrient solution pH, inoculation level, and moisture content were observed and optimized by one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) and response surface methodology (RSM), sequentially. It was found that the incubation temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ with 75% moisture content, nutrient solution pH of 7.1 and inoculation level of $4.0{\times}10^6$ spores/ml were the most favorable. Again, fermentation parameters were optimized using RSM. The determined optimum condition is $26.5^{\circ}C$, pH 9.9, 75.1%, and $6.0{\times}10^6$ spores/ml. Under this optimized condition, A. niger NRRL 567 produced 118.8 g citric acid/kg dry peat moss at 72 hr. Maximum citric acid production of optimized condition by RSM represented a 1.6-fold increase compared to that obtained from control experiment.

This study was conducted to optimize the medium composition for cold-adaptive protease production of Enterobacteriaceae sp. by response surface methodology (RSM). Yeast extract, and TritonX-100 were identified as the significant factors affecting protease from one-factor-at-a-time method. RSM studies for optimizing protease production of Enterobacteriaceae sp. have been carried out for three parameters including yeast extract concentration, TritonX-100 concentration, and culture pH. These significant factors were optimized as 6.690 g/L yeast extract, 0.018 g/L Triton$^{TM}$ X-10, and pH 6.677. The experimentally obtained protease activity was 8.03 U /L, and it became 1.5-fold increase before optimization.

The aim of this study was to establish the optimal medium composition for enhancing L(+)-lactic acid (LLA) production using response surface methodology (RSM). Lactobacillus paracasei SRCM201474 was selected as the LLA producer by productivity analysis from nine candidates isolated from kimchi and identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Plackett-Burman design was used to assess the effect of eleven media components on LLA production, including carbon (glucose, sucrose, molasses), nitrogen (yeast extract, peptone, tryptone, beef extract), and mineral (NaCl, K₂HPO₄, MgSO₄, MnSO₄) materials. Glucose, sucrose, molasses, and peptone were subsequently chosen as promising media for further optimization studies, and a hybrid design experiment was used to establish their optimal concentrations as glucose 15.48 g/l, sucrose 16.73 g/l, molasses 39.09 g/l, and peptone 34.91 g/l. The coefficient of determination of the equation derived from RSM regression for LLA production was mathematically reliable at 0.9969. At optimum parameters, 33.38 g/l of maximum LLA increased by 193% when compared with MRS broth as unoptimized medium (17.66 g/l). Our statistical model was confirmed by subsequent validation experiments. Increasing the performance of LLA-producing microorganisms and establishing an effective LLA fermentation process can be of particular benefit for bioplastic technologies and industrial applications.

The culture conditions of chinese cabbage medium for the growth of Bacillus lentimorbus G-74, having antifungal activities, were optimized. The optimal growth of B. lentimorbus G-74 was obtained when the concentration of chinese cabbage extract was 50%(v/v). The optimum temperature and pH for the cell growth of B. lentimorbus G-74 were $35^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively.

The objective of this study was to optimize culture conditions and to produce hydrogen and organic compounds using microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. First of all, C. reinhardtii UTEX 90 was chosen from the three kinds of strains in terms of their hydrogen and organic compound productivity. The optimum $\textrm{CO}_2$ concentration range of C. reinhardtii UTEX 90 was 1to 3%. We tested two medium, which are popular in this microalga culture; Brostol's medium and TAP medium (8). The cell growth in TAP medium was found to be higher than a Brostol's medium. Optimum culture with 3% of $\textrm{CO}_2$ in TAP medium produced the most hydrogen ($0.5\mu$ mol/ mg DCW), though Bristol's medium produced twice as much total organics.

The research is concerned with optimization of growth medium composition in an attempt to improve the product yield of Bacillus licheniformis amylase (BLMA) in recombinant E. coli containing the BLMA gene. BLMA has the catalytic activity of producing branched oligosaccharides from starch. The medium optimization was performed in flask cultures based on the Box and Wilson method. The optimized medium is composed of tryptone 18.0 g/l, yeast extract 22.4 g/l, NaCl 5.3 g/l and glucose 2.1 g/l. In a jar fermenter culture with the conventional LB medium, the recombinant E. coli yielded 1.39 g/l of final dry cell mass and 5.11 U/ml of enzyme activity. In the optimized medium, however, the final cell mass was increased to 6.01 g/l and the enzyme activity to 23.2 U/ml. Medium optimization improved cell mass by 4.3 times and enzyme activity by 4.5 times. Such an increase in enzyme activity is mainly due to an enhancement of cell mass.

Bacillus licheniformis fermenting soybean product with highest score in consumer acceptance had been isolated from homemade Cheongkookjang. In order to develop the medium composition, effects of ingredients including nitrogen sources, carbon sources, metal ions and phosphate were examined for protease production of the isolate. Potato starch increased the protease productivity, while glucose repressed it. Yeast extract was the most effective nitrogen source for enzyme production. The calcium was found to increase protease activity slightly while cell growth and enzyme production was completely inhibited by divalent ions such as $Zn^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Co^{2+}$. The maximum protease productivity was reached approximately 800 unit/mL in the optimized medium consisting of potato starch (1.5%), yeast extract (1.5%), $CaCl_2$(0.7%), $K_2HPO_4$(0.03%) and $KH_2PO_4$(0.03%). The protease activity of culture filtrate was gradually decreased after incubation for 28 h.

To produce staphylokinase (SAK) in B. subtilis WB700, media optimization was carried out and the operation of batch and fed-batch fermentation were compared. Tryptone is a good nitrogen source and its optimum concentration in modified super rich(MSR) media is 15 g/L. When glucose is used as a limiting carbon source in the MSR media, 5 g/L of an optimum glucose concentration was identified for the SAK production under the control of P43 promoter. As the expression of P43 promoter is controlled by the limitation of oxygen, the SAK production was controlled at the 30% DO level in the fed-batch fermentation. Unexpectedly, batch fermentation using MSR media showed 1.5 times higher yield of SAK than that of the fed-batch fermentation. The main cause of the results comes from not achieving higher cell concentration in the fed-batch fermentation and the optimum expression level of P43 promoter under oxygen or nutrient limitations. We could not achieve the increase in cell concentration by any means in batch culture as well as fed-batch culture. The highest yield in the batch culture was 2880 units of SAK activity and 455 mg/L of secreted SAK.
