휴대용 고분자전해질 연료전지의 수소발생용으로써 $NaBH_4$는 많은 장점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $NaBH_4$ 가수분해 반응의 수소 수율에 대해 연구하였다. $NaBH_4$ 가수분해 반응의 수소 수율에 미치는 촉매 형태, 온도, $NaBH_4$ 농도, NaOH 농도 등의 영향에 대해 실험하였다. 촉매는 Co-P/Cu, Co-B/Cu와 Co-P-B/Cu를 사용하였는데 이들 촉매 종류에 따라 $NaBH_4$ 가수분해 반응의 수소 수율에 미치는 영향은 거의 없었다. $60^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도에서 $NaBH_4$ 농도가 증가하면 부산물과 $NaBH_4$에 의해 겔이 형성되면서 가수분해 반응의 수소 수율이 감소였다. 겔 형성에 의해서 $NaBH_4$ 가수분해 반응 속도와 수소 총 발생량이 감소하였다. 안정화제인 NaOH를 첨가하면 겔 형성을 촉진해 수소 수율을 감소시켰다.

본 연구는 양파즙을 이용하여 가축 사료첨가제용 Lactobacillus plantarum의 배양 최적화를 위하여 수행되었다. 양파즙의 첨가수준이 균체성장과 항산화 활성에 미치는 영향을 평가하였을 때, 그 첨가수준이 증가할수록 모두 높아졌다. 양파즙, 설탕 그리고 yeast extract를 배지성분요인으로 선택하였고, 배지 내 성분요인들의 혼합비율에 의한 효과를 평가하였다. 24 개의 실험들로 구성된 완전 요인 배치법을 이용하여 요인들의 주효과와 상호작용을 조사하였다. 균체성장과 항산화 활성에 대한 유의성 있는 긍정적 주효과는 각각 yeast extract와 양파즙에서 나타났다. 유의적인 상호작용으로는 항산화 활성에 대하여 설탕와 yeast extract 사이에서 나타났다. 최종적으로 양파 600 g/l, 설탕 15 g/l 및 효모추출물 5 g/l의 최적 배지조성을 선발하였다. 얻어진 최적배지의 효율을 분석하기 위하여 5 l 발효기를 이용하여 평가한 결과 최대 균체 성장량은 배양 12시간째에 $9.7\;{\log}_{10}$ (CFU/ml)로 나타났다. 배양 마지막인 20시간 때에는 $8.9\;{\log}_{10}$ (CFU/ml)의 균체 성장량을 보였으며 이는 예측된 $9.01\;{\log}_{10}$ (CFU/ml)과 매우 유사한 결과였다. 배양액의 항산화 활성은 모든 배양 시간대에서 약 60~65%로 유지되었으며, 이것은 예측된 값(47.1%)보다 훨씬 우수하였다.

The objective of this study was to assess the association of polymorphisms in ${\kappa}$-cn, ${\beta}$-lg, ${\beta}$-lg 5′ flanking region, CSN1S2, and IGFBP-3 genes with milk production traits and mastitis-related traits in Chinese Holstein. Traits analyzed were 305 day standard milk yield, protein percentage, fat percentage, the ratio of fat percentage and protein percentage, pre-somatic cell count, somatic cell count, and somatic cell score, respectively. CSN1S2 locus was uninformative because only one genotype BB was found in Chinese Holstein. Allele frequencies of A and B in IGFBP-3 gene were 0.5738 and 0.4262 in Chinese Holstein population, which was different from reported Qinchuan cattle population. The genotypes of animals at IGFBP-3 locus significantly affected 305 day standard milk yield, protein percentage, and somatic cell score. The ${\beta}$-lg genotypes had a significant effect on protein percentage and the ratio of fat percentage and protein percentage. Polymorphism in ${\beta}$-lg 5′ flanking region was associated with 305 day standard milk yield, protein percentage, fat percentage, pre-somatic cell count, and somatic cell count. No significant associations of the polymorphism in ${\kappa}$-cn gene were observed for any trait.

The study was conducted to assess the effect of milk production, parity, stage of lactation, season and individual milk components themselves on milk urea nitrogen (MUN) concentration and other milk components of 3,219 Holstein dairy cows in Korean dairy farms. The MUN concentrations in Korean dairy cows were estimated to 16.68$\pm$5.87 mg/dl. Milk yield was negatively correlated with fat and protein contents and somatic cell counts (SCC) in milk (p<0.01). The increasing MUN concentration has positive correlation with yield and fat content. By increasing somatic cell, milk yield was reduced and MUN level was increased. Cows in spring and winter produced more milk over 1.43 and 0.93 kg/day, respectively, than cows in summer (p<0.01). Milk urea nitrogen concentrations of milk produced in summer and fall were significantly lower (p<0.01) than those in spring and winter. Both MUN concentration and somatic cell counts were highest in winter. Milk yield was lower (p<0.01) in the first calving than other calving time and was tended to increase until the fifth parity and then decrease. Milk urea nitrogen and SCC were not related to parity of cows in this study. Milk yield and SCC were positively related to lactation period while MUN concentrations and milk fat and protein contents were negatively influenced by stage of lactation. In the present study, the relationship between MUN and reproduction of dairy cows was also investigated. Cow produced milk in high MUN concentrations (greater than 18 mg/dl) had more open days than cows in MUN concentrations less than 18 mg/dl. However, no significant difference between MUN concentration levels and frequency of artificial insemination was found in this study. It is suggested that although MUN values for nutritional management and measures of production or reproduction are used, non-nutritional factors should be considered.

A yeast strain, BT001, which can directly ferment D-xylose to ethanol was isolated from forest soils, and then identified as Candida sp. Cultural conditions for the optimum ethanol production, along with the effects of aeration on cell growth and ethanol production were investigated. Aeration stimulated the cell growth and the volumetric rate of ethanol production, but decreased the ethanol yield. Optimum temperature and initial pH for the ethanol production were $33{\circ}^C$ and 6.0, respectively. In a shake flask culture, this strain produced 52.3 g ethanol per liter from 12%(w/v) D-xylose after incubation for 96 hours. Ethanol yield was 0.436 g per g D-xylose consumed. This corresponds to 85.8% of theoretical yield. Also, this yeast strain produced ethanol from D-galactose, D-glucose and D-mannose, but not from L-arabinose and L-rhamnose. Among these sugars, D-glucose was the fastest in being converted to ethanol sugars.

본 논문에서는 Thalictrum rugosum 식물세포의 회분식 배양에 있어서 동역학적 특성들을 연구하였다. 본 실험에서 alkaloid의 생성은 일반적인 2차대사 산물의 생성 특성과 달리 세포성장에 비례함이 확인되었다. 세포 성장기의 비증식속도는 $0.20~0.25\;day\;^{-1}이었으며 FW / DCW 비가 배양상태를 나타내는 중요한 인자임을 알수 있었다. Cell yield는 0.36g cells/g sugar이었으며 berberine은 139mg/L까지 생성되었고 그중 120mg/L는 세포내에 존재하였다. 이를 specific content로 계산하면 dry cell weight의 1.10%가 된다. 세포 성장기에서 비증식속도와 당농도간의 관계는 Monod kinetics로 잘 기술될 수 있었다.

The cells are concentrated approximately 20-fold by cytocentrifugation. This study evaluated the nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide by using Cytospin-3 (Thermo Shandon Ltd. UK) and Cytopro-7620 (Wescor Inc., USA) cytocentrifuges to hematocytometer cell count of $0{\sim}5WBCs/{\mu}L$ of hematocytometer in the cerebrospinal fluid cell count. One hundred forty eight samples of $0{\sim}5WBCs/{\mu}L$ on hematocytometer, were cytocentrifuged by Cytospin-3 and Cytopro-7620 instruments. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was counted after Wright stain. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 0~40 cells in the 44 samples of $0WBC/{\mu}L$, and 3~95 cells in the 31 samples of $1WBC/{\mu}L$. It was observed that the nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 13~100 cells in the 44 samples of $2WBCs/{\mu}L$, and more than 100 cells in the 29 samples of $3{\sim}5WBCs/{\mu}L$, respectively. In addition, extremely normal lymphocyte, monocyte and polymorphonuclear neutrophil were observed in the 143 samples of $0{\sim}5WBCs/{\mu}L$. Macrophage and eosinophil were also rarely observed. The nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide was 20 cells, which were regarded as $1WBC/{\mu}L$ in body fluid cell count. However, in this study, we made alterations to report nucleated cell percentage as 0% without preparing the cytocentrifuged slide at $0WBC/{\mu}L$ by using the cell yield in a comparison between the value of $0{\sim}5WBCs/{\mu}L$ and nucleated cell number for cells recovered on slide.

A mixed-culture of Gluconobacter suboxydans IFO 3172 and Saccharomyces uvarum IFO 0751 was per-formed in a synthetic medium. the optimal inculum ratio of G. suboydans and S. uvarum for mixed-culture fermentation was 150:1. The optimum pH, incubation temperature and aeration rate for mixed-culture fer- mentation were 5.0, 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 2.25vvm, reapectively. As a result of batch pure-and mixed-culture fer-mentation, specific growth rate in pure-culture of both strain was lower than that in mixed-culture. The yield of cell mass from S. uvarum exclusively decreased. The growth rate of the mixed-culture was very similar to the pure-culture in the begining of culture, but it has been decreased after 16hrs. In the mean time, S. uvarum in mixed-culture fermentation could grow due to fructose converted, but it could not row in pure-culture fermentation. Thus, the relationship was a sort of commensalism. The kinetic parameters cal-culated through steady-state results during continuous fermentations are as follows :{TEX}$$\mu$_{max1}${/TEX}=0.118({TEX}$h^{-1}${/TEX}), {TEX}$Ks_{1}${/TEX}=0.330(g/L),:{TEX}$$\mu$_{max2}${/TEX}=0.162({TEX}$h^{-1}${/TEX}), {TEX}$Ks_{2}${/TEX}=0.038(g/L). The yield of bacterial cell mass relatively constant, but yield of yest cell mass was gradually decreased.

We separately cultured follicular oocytes collected from individual ovaries of slaughtered Korean native cows and examined both the embryonic development rate and pregnancy rate after embryo transplantation according to the meat yield and quality grades of the source beef carcass. Oocytes from meat yield grade B cows exhibited a higher fertilization rate and embryonic developmental rate to the eight-cell stage than oocytes from grade A or C animals (p<0.05), but there was no significant difference in rate of development to the blastocyst stage among meat yield grades A, Band C. The oocyte cleavage rate and development rate to the eight-cell stage from meat quality grade 3 cattle was higher than grades 1++, 1+, 1 and 2 (p<0.05). Embryos derived from grade animals displayed a development rate to the blastocyst stage of 19.4%, which was also higher than all other meat quality grades (p<0.05). Transplantation of in vitro-cultured oocytes from meat yield grade A ovaries led to a higher pregnancy rate (64.2%) than in vitro-cultured oocytes from meat yield grade B ovaries (56.5%), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in pregnancy or abortion rates. In conclusion, embryonic development rate and pregnancy rate has a close relation to meat quality grades of the source beef carcass, this results is to give information for the Korean native cows improvement of breed.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the characteristics of xylitol fermentation by a xylitol dehydrogenase defective mutant PXM-4 of P stipitis CBS 5776 and to determime optimum conditions for the high yield ofxylitol production from xylose. Gluconic acid was selected as a co substrate for the xylitol fermentation, since gluconic acid neither blocked xylose transport nor repressed xylose reductase expression. An increase of gluconic acid concentration reduced the rates of xylitol production and cell growth by decreasing medium pH, and the optimal concentration of gluconic acid was determined to be 20 gll with approximately 100% xylitol conversion yield. A fed-batch cell culture resulted in a 44.8 g/l xylitol concentration with 100% yield, based on the amount of xylose consumed.
