There are many methods of obtaining butadiene described in the literature. In the america it is produced largely from petroleum gases, i.e., by catalytic dehydrogenation of butene of butene-butane mixtures. Butadiene can be recovered from the $C_4$ residue of an olefin plant by distilling off a fraction containing most of the butadiene, catalytically hydrogenating the higher acetylenes to olefins and separating the product from other olefins and isobutane by extraction. Also it can be obtained by cracking naphtha and light oil. Among the individual dienes of commercial importance, 1, 3-butadiene is of first importance. It is used primarily for the production of polymers.In the present paper, it was investigated for a effect of the formation and the growth inhibition of popped corn polymer in butadiene extraction unit. As a result of study, inhibitors, $NaNO_2$ and TBC were good effective for inhibition of the formation and growth in popcorn polymer. The rational formula of popcorn polymer obtained was $(C_4H_6)_x$.

Lamb fed 2% urea treated sago fibre and corn at 1.5 : 1 ratio (sago fibre + corn) and supplemented with fishmeal at 0, 50, 100, 150 g/head/day, gained 68.6, 139.6, 158.6 and 166.3 g/day, respectively. A simple feed cost analysis indicated that the sago with supplementation of fishmeal at 50 g/head/day could be an efficient and economic diet for sheep. The result showed that energy and protein supplements are necessary for reasonable performance of the sheep fed on urea treated sago fibre.

Limiting amino acids (AAs) for milk production in dairy cows fed on a concentrate diet of corn grain and soybean meal was evaluated in this study. Four lactating and multiparous Holstein cows (in third or fourth parities, with an average body weight of 633 ± 49.2 kg), 8 to 9 weeks into their lactation period, were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design. The experiment comprised four dietary treatments: (1) no intravenous infusion (control); (2) control plus intravenous infusion of an AA mixture of 6 g/d methionine, 19.1 g/d lysine, 13.8 g/d isoleucine, and 15.4 g/d valine (4AA); (3) control plus intravenous infusion of the AA mixture without methionine (no-Met); and (4) control plus intravenous infusion of the AA mixture without lysine (no-Lys). All animals were fed on a controlled diet (1 kg/d alfalfa hay, 10 kg/d silage, 14 kg/d concentrate mixture, ad libitum timothy hay). The AA composition of the diet and blood were determined using an automatic AA analyzer. Milk composition (protein, fat, lactose, urea nitrogen, and somatic cell counts) was determined using a MilkoScan. The results showed that feed intake for milk production did not differ from that of intravenous infusion using a limiting AA mixture. The 4AA treatment numerically had the highest milk yield (32.4 kg/d), although there was no difference when compared with the control (31.2 kg/d), no-Met (31.3 kg/d), and no-Lys (31.7 kg/d) treatments. The concentration of AAs in blood plasma of cows in all treatments, mainly isoleucine and valine, increased significantly compared with that of control. The no-Met treatment increased (p < 0.05) the concentration of lysine in the blood relative to the control and no-Lys treatments, whereas the no-Lys treatment increased (p < 0.05) the concentration of methionine relative to the control and no-Met treatments. In conclusion, milk production increased when feeding 10 g/d methionine to the cows, together with their concentrate diet of corn grain and soybean meal.

The distribution of acid phosphatase activity was investigated with 141 microorganisms from the type culture collection of Chong Kun Dang laboratory and the 41 strains isolated from natural sources. The phytase activity was detected mainly with fungal strains. A fungus isolated from soil and identified as Aspergillus niger had shown the highest phytase activity. The environmental conditions for the enzyme formation by the isolate and some properties of the enzyme were also studied. The results obtained were as follows: (1) The highest phytase production was observed when the fungus was cultivated at 28$^{\circ}C$ for 5 days in the corn starch based medium using the cells incubated at 34$^{\circ}C$ for 3 days as a seed. (2) The optimal initial pH of the culture medium was found to around 2 for the formation of phytase. (3) Sucrose was proved to be one of the most effective carbon sources tested for the enzyme production. (4) As an inorganic nitrogen source, potassium nitrate was found to give a good result in the production of phytase. (5) Synthesis of phytase was significantly increased by the supplement with 0.2 % corn steep liquor to the basal medium as an organic nitrogen source. (6) At the concentration of 40-80 mg inorganic phosphate per liter of the culture medium, the enzyme formation revealed the highest level. But as the phosphate was increased above this optimum concentration the phytase activity was drastically decreased although the cell density showed to be still increasing

The effects and significance of ${\gamma}$-amino butyric acid (GABA) producing bacteria (GPB) on in vitro rumen fermentation and reduction of biogenic amines (histamine, methylamine, ethylamine, and tyramine) using corn meal as a substrate were determined. Ruminal samples collected from ruminally fistulated Holstein cows served as inoculum and corn was used as substrate at 2% dry matter (DM). Different inclusion rates of GPB and GABA were evaluated. After incubation, addition of GPB had no significant effect on in vitro fermentation pH and total gas production, but significantly increased the ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3$-N) concentration and reduced the total biogenic amines production (p<0.05). Furthermore, antioxidation activity was improved as indicated by the significantly higher concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) among treated samples when compared to the control (p<0.05). Additionally, 0.2% GPB was established as the optimum inclusion level. Taken together, these results suggest the potential of utilizing GPB as feed additives to improve growth performance in ruminants by reducing biogenic amines and increasing anti-oxidation.

The mycelium of 3 edible mushrooms, Shizophyllum commune, pleurotus ostreatus, Tricholoma sp. was cultured in a liquid for the production of a fibrinolytic enzyme. Among them, Shizophyllum commune produced highest amount of the enzyme. The intramycelial production of the fibrinolytic enzyme by the culture of the Shizophyllum commune mycelium was approximately 6-fold higher than the extramycelial production. The carbon and nitrogen sources for the production of the enzyme were 1.5% corn steep liguor and 1.0% soytone, respectively, and optimal culture temperature and initial pH were $25^{\circ}C$ and pH 6, respectively.

The conversion of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose by Gluconobater suboxydans was analyzed, and continuous production of L-sorbose was carried out in immobilized cell reactors. L-Sorbose production by high densities of resting cells was more effective than by conventional batch fermentations. Sorbitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme converting D-sorbitol to L-sorbose, did not suffer from substrate inhibition, but from product inhibition. When L-sorbose production was carried out with Ca-alginate-immobilized cells, about 60 g/l of L-sorbose was obtained. On the other hand, when the corn steep liquor (CSL) concentration of medium was reduced to 0.08%, 80 g/l of L-sorbose was obtained. Outgrowth inside the immobilized carriers was thought to block the pores of the carriers so that substrate could not easily diffuse through the carriers. Continuous production of L-sorbose was well accomplished in a bubble column reactor, and 6. 5 g/l.h of productivity and 81.2% of yield were obtained at a substrate feeding rate of 0.08h$^{-1}$ under the optimum conditions with carrier volume of 55% and aeration rate of 3 vvm.

Streptomyces chibaensis J-59 did not grow in the culture medium containing only xylose or xylan as a carbon source, because it was defective in xylulokinase production; xylB mutant. S. chibaensis J-59 was able to produce xylanase and $\beta $-xylosidase as well as glucose isomerase. The glucose isomerase in S. chilbaensis J-59 was induced in the medium containing xylan or xylose which could be utilized as an inducer but not sa carbon and energy sources. So we tried to produce glucose isomerase whthout consumption of xylose or xylan as an inducer by using xylB mutant S. chilbaensis J-59. The optimum condition for the production of the glucose isomerase was attained in a culture medium composed of 1% xylan, 0.15% glucose, 1.5% corn steep liquor, 0.1% MaSO$_{4}$ $\CDOT $7H$_{2}$O, and 0.012% CoCL$_{2}$ $\CDOT $ 6H$_{2}$O(pH 7.0). The production of the enzyme reached to a maximum level when the bacteria were cultured for 42 h at 30$\circ $C. The enzyme production in a jar fermentor was increased twice as much as that in a flask culture.
