Lactobacillus acidophilus A12 was isolated from chicken feces for use as an immunostimulating livestock probiotic. The purpose of this study was to optimize the production of L. acidophilus A12 using response surface methodology (RSM). Initially, the influence of growth medium was studied in terms of carbon sources (glucose, fructose, lactose, glycerol, sucrose, ethanol, and mannitol), nitrogen sources (beef extract, yeast extract, malt extract, and tryptone), and inorganic salts ($CaCl_2$, $MgSO_4$, $KH_2PO_4$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $FeSO_4$, and NaCl). Through one factor-at-a time experiment, lactose, yeast extract, and $CaCl_2$ were determined to be the best sources of carbon, nitrogen, and inorganic salt, respectively. The optimum composition was found to be 17.7 g/L lactose, 18.6 g/L yeast extract, and 0.9 g/L $CaCl_2$. Under these conditions, a maximum cell density of 9.33 Log CFU/mL was produced, similar to the predicted value.

It is well known that new tissue or blood vessel is grown into a porous calcium phosphate ceramics used as a bone graft substitute due to their excellent biocompatibility. In this study, the most chemically stable porous $\beta$-crystalline form in various forms of calcium metaphosphate, Ca(PO$_3$)$_2$is prepared by the controlled thermolysis of monocalcium phosphate, Ca(H$_2$PO$_4$)$_2$.The diameter of cylindrical pores formed during cooling was controlled by a holding time at the melting point of a monocalcium phosphate and by the change of a crystallization temperature, to obtain the most appropriate size (about 200$\mu$m) of pores for the application of bone substitutes and matricuts. It was observed that the increasing holding time at the melting point of monocalcium phosphate results in the decreases of cylindrical pore sizes.

β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP, Ca3(PO4)2) is a kind of biodegradable calcium phosphate ceramics with chemical and mineral compositions similar to those of bone. It is a potential candidate for bone repair surgery. To improve the bioactivity and osteoinductivity of β-TCP, various ions doped calcium phosphate have been studied. Among them, Iron is a trace element and its deficiency in the human body causes various problems. In this study, we investigated the effect of Fe ions on the structural variation, degradation behavior of β-TCP. Fe-doped β-TCP powders were synthesized by the coprecipitation method, and the heat treatment temperature was set at 925 and 1100℃. The structural analysis was carried out by Rietveld refinement using the X-ray diffraction results. Fe ions existed in a different state (Fe2+ or Fe3+) with different heat treatment temperatures, and the substitution sites (Ca-(4) and Ca-(5)) also changed with temperature. The degradation rate was fastest at Fe-doped β-TCP with heated at 1100℃. The cell viability behavior was also enhanced with the substitution of Fe ions. Therefore, the substitution of Fe ion has accelerated the degradation of β-TCP and improved the biocompatibility. It could be more utilized in biomedical devices.

Simultaneous determination of chloragenic acid (CA), 3,4-o-dicafeoyl quinic acid(3,4-DCQA), 4,5-o-dicaffeoyl quinic acid (4,5-DCQA) and linarin in Chrysanthemum sibiricum Fisher was newly established by a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Sample was extracted with 20 ml methanol for 4 hrs. The extract was cleaned up by using Sep-Pak $C_18$ cartridge and 4 ml methanol-$H_2$O(1 : 1) as eluent. Their determination was performed by means of RP-HPLC with Bondapak $C_18$ column (30 cm ${\times}$ 3.9 mm i.d., 10 ${\mu}m$ and gradient elution mode as methanol-5 mM $H_3PO_4$ solution (30 : 70). The established method was applied to various samples purchased. As a result, their content ranges showed to be 0.35~0.55% for CA, 0.46~0.76% for 3,5-DCQA, 0.077~0.23% for 4,5-DCQA and 0.16~2.72% for linarin, respectively.

An interspecific fusant strain, Streptomyces MS1 was obtained by protoplast fusion between S. peucetius subsp. caesius and S. platensis. We studied on the fermentation characteristics of the fusant strain. The fermentation products of the fusant MS1 was identical with S. peucetius, but its production of anthracycline was more stable than S. peucetius under various fermentation conditions in regard to acidogenesis of fermentation broth. The optimal medium composition for anthracycline production by fusant MS1 as follows: sucrose 2.0%, glucose 1.0%, soytone 0.7%, $CaCO_3$ 0.2%, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.013%, casamino acids 0.01%, $K_2SO_4$ 0.025%, $MaCl_2\;6H_2O$ 1.024%, 5M $CaCl_2\;5H_2O$ 0.4%, 1N NaOH 0.7%, 20% L-proline 1.5%. In this condition, the productivity of anthracycline was $80{\sim}100\;{\mu}g/ml$.

The features of precipitating reaction of fluoride have been examined by employing waste gypsum as a precipitant. The major component of waste gypsum was examined to be CaO with minor components of $SO_3$, $SiO_2$. In the experimental condition, the precipitating reaction of fluoride progressed rapidly within a few minutes after the reaction started and reached its equilibrium in 10 minutes. Kinetic analysis showed that the precipitating reaction of fluoride generally followed a first Oder and second Oder with decreasing rate constant with the initial dosage of precipitant. XRD analysis showed that the crystalline structure of precipitate was mainly $CaF_2$ with partly $Ca_5(PO_4)_3(OH)$.

This study aims to find the taste compounds of wild loach, Misgurnis mizolepis, which is important fresh-water fish in this country. In order to elucidate the origin of the taste of wild loach meat, free amino acids, organic bases, nucleotides and their related compounds, organic acids, sugars and minerals were analyzed, and then followed by organoleptic test of synthetic extract prepared on the basis of the analytical data. Sensory evaluations of synthetic extracts prepared by omitting each extractive components were carried out by a triangle difference test, and changes in taste profile were assessed. In free amino acid composition, histidine, threonine, glycine, lysine, alanine were abundant. IMP and AMP were dominant in the wild loach in content. Total creatinine and butyric acid were abundant. As for the minerals, $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Cl^-\;and\;PO_4^{3-}$ were found to be the major ions. From the results of omission test of synthetic extracts the major components which contribute to produce the taste were arginine, glutamic acid, valine, aspartic acid, IMP, succinic acid, $Na^+,\;K^+,\;Ca^{2+}\;Mg^{2+}\;Cl^-\;and\;PO_4^{3-}$.

Lipase from Acinetobacter sp. SY-01 plays an important role enzyme that products chiral drug. We investigated optimum condition for mass production of Acinetobacter sp. SY-01 lipase. Addition of among the different oils to medium. olive oil was optimal for enzyme production. When 0.2% olive oil was added as a carbon source, the production of lipase was increased to a maximum. The optimum pH and temperature were pH 7 and $30^{\circ}C$. In the presence of $Fe^{2＋}$ and $Ca^{2＋}$, the lipase activity was dramatically enhanced by 280% and 160%, respectively. SY-01 lipase was stable in the most of the DMSO among organic solvents. The addition of triton-X 100 increased the SY-01 lipase by 100-fold. The optimum composition of medium for production of the enzyme was 0.8% yeast extract, 0.2% olive oil, 0.4% triton X-100＋40% DMSO. 0.1% $NH_4Cl$, 0.4% $K_2HPO_4$ 3.9% $NaH_2PO_4$, 0.03% $CaCl_22H_2O$, 0.01% $FeSO_4$$7H_2O$(pH 7.0).
