This study was carried out to investigate the possibility to utilize feather meal by bacterial strains. A bacterial strain SE-103 producing keratinolytic enzyme was isolated from the soil of the poultry slaughterhouses. It was identified as Bacillus sp. by judging from its morphological and physiological characteristics. Subsequently the optimal culture conditions for the production of keratinolytic protease by Bacillus sp. SE-103 were investigated. The composition of optimal medium was 3.0% glucose, 0.4% urea, 0.2% $NaNO_3$, and 0.15% KCl. In addition, optimal initial pH and temperature were 6.0 and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively.

By the successive enrichment culture, methanol-utilizing bacteria of 213 strains were isolated from soil samples collected from various places. Among them one strain showing excellent growth was selected. The organism isolated was obligate methylotroph and identified as Methylomonas methanolica on the basis of its mophological and physiological characteristics of the cell. The medium have been to be collected for the maximum biomass productivity. The microorganism was capable of growing satisfactorily on a medium containing only methanol 0.8％ (v/v), ammonium sulfate 0.6％, magnesium sulfate 0.1％, phosphate salts, but did not require growth factor.

As flocculent strains are likely to have considerable potential for internal cell recycle, kinetic studies on glucose medium with flocculent Saccharomyces uvarum were carried out in batch and continuous culture. Using a mathematical model, the kinetic parameters at each temperature and pH were estimated in order to establish optimal conditions. It was found that an overall optimum temperature for growth and ethanol production in the range 33-35$^{\circ}C$ was desirable. With regard to the effect of pH, ethanol production by S. uvarum was found to be relatively insensitive to pH value between 4 and 6, with an optimum pH of around 5. At these optimal conditions a maximum ethanol productivity of 12 g/$\ell$/h was determined using semi-batch process together with 5. uvarum.

A strain of Bacillus sp. WS-14 was isolated from soil. Medium optimization for ${\beta}-mannanase$ production by Bacillus sp. WS-14 was performed. Effect of various carbon sources on ${\beta}-mannanase$ production was investigated and locust bean gum was the most effective for ${\beta}-mannanase$ production. ${\beta}-mannanase$ activity and cell growth increased with increasing the concentration of locust bean gum, however, the amounts were not significant. Among nitrogen sources, soytone was the most effective for ${\beta}-mannanase$ production. Inorganic compounds such as $KH_2PO_4,\;NaCl\;Na_2CO_3\;and\;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;on\;{\beta}-mannanase$ production were optimized for ${\beta}-mannanase$ production. Locust bean gum of 10.0 g/l, soytone of 5.0 g/l, $KH_2PO_4$ of 2.0 g/l, NaCl of 10.0 g/l, $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;of\;0.2\;g/l,\;Na_2CO_3$, of 2.0 g/l were selected as optimum content. Production of ${\beta}-mannanase$ by using the optimum medium was carried out. The maximum ${\beta}-mannanase$ activity of 20.8 unit/ml could be obtained after 14 h fermentation which corresponed to the productivity of ${\beta}-mannanase$ of 1.48 unit/ml-h.

Whey based medium was optimized for the production of viable Lactobacillus crispatus KLB 46 isolated from the vagina of Korean women. Among the various nitrogen sources such as yeast extract, beef extract, and proteose peptone no. 3 supplemented to whey, beef extract showed the highest viable cell production. The addition of Tween 80 to the whey based medium increased viable cell concentration. As beef extract supplementation is not economically attractive, corn steep liquor was added as a supplementary nitrogen sources. When corn steep liquor was supplied with beef extract with the ratio 5 : 1, the viable cell count was $3.11{\times}10^9$ CFU/mL. Also, the addition of mineral salts containing sodium acetate (5 g/L), potassium phosphate dibasic (2 g/L), magnesium sulfate (0.1 g/L) and manganese sulfate (0.05 g/L) to the whey medium increased viable cell count further ($5.00{\times}10^9$ CFU/mL).

The optimum conditions for lignin peroxidase production were studied. Lignin peroxidase was produced almost exclusively in stationary culture with the optimum media composition of malt extract 1 g, yeast extract 0.4 g, glucose 0.4 g and distilled water 100 ml. Tween 80 at 0.005% concentration and veratryl alcohol at 0.4 mM were very effective inducers for lignin peroxidase production.

Medium optimization for xylitol production from xylose by Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019 mutant was performed. Effect of various nitrogen sources on xylitol production was investigatied. Of inorganic nitrogenous compounds, ammonium sulfate was effective for xylitol production and yeast extract was the most suitable orangic nitrogen nutrient for enhancement of xylitol production. Effect of inorganic salts such as KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$ and MgSO$_{4}$-7H$_{2}$0 on xylitol production was also studied. Optimal medium was selected as xylose of 50 g/l, yeast extract of 5 g/l, (NH4$_{4}$)$_{2}$SO$_{4}$ of 5 g/l, KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$ of 5 g/l, MgSO$_{4}$-7H$_{2}$O of 0.2 g/l. In a fermentor by using the optimal medium, a final xylitol concentration of 37 g/l could be obtained from 50 g/l of xylose with a xylitol yield of 74% and a xylitol productivity of 0.58 g/1-hr. At 300 g/l xylose, fermentation was also carried out and then a final xylitol concentration of 242 g/l was obtained at 272 hours. It was corresponding to xylitol yield of 80.7% and xylitol productivity of 0.58 g/1-hr.

Soybeans were fermented with Monascus sp. to select strain with highest mevinolin production through solidstate fermentation. Monascus pilosus IFO 480 showed highest yield of 2.2 mg mevinolin per g dry weight without citrinin, toxic fungal secondary metabolite, as byproduct. Nutrient broth used for soybean fermentation with Monascus sp. was composed of 3.4 rice powder, 1.1 peptone, 2.6 glycine, 12.9 glucose, initial pH 6.0 (%, w/v). Mevinolin was present in fermentation substrate largely as hydroxy carboxylate form (open lactone, 91.8-96.8%), which is used as hypocholesterolemic agent. Production of mevinolin continued up to 50 days fermentation time at $30^{\circ}C$.

The addition of glycine up to 0.5％ (w/v) to Luria broth (LB) media on the secretion of levansucrase in a recombinant strain Escherichia coli JM109/pUPLK1 was observed to enhance the release of periplasmic proteins from the cell to the broth, without significantly affecting the cell growth rate and protein productivity. However, the glycine concentration at 1 ％ (w/v), the cell density attainable at the stationary phase fell to about 50％ and the extracellular activity of levansucrase corresponded to about 80％ of the total (extracellular plus intracellular) activity and increased by 2.6-fold, comparing to the cells grown in the absence of glycine. The increased pH at stationary phase accelerated the degradation of levansucrase. Maximal extracellular activity was attained when 1 ％ glycine was supplemented at the onset of strain growth.
