To find antitumor components in liquid cultured cell-free broth and the hot water extract from the fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus, polysaccharides were purified and fractionated by DEAE-cellulose ion exchage column chromatography and Sepharose CL-6B gel filtration chromatography. Among various crude polysaccharides and purified polysaccharides the fractions showing immune-activity were determined by NO assay.

Ten strains of Salmonella were isolated from feces and lymph nodes of swine slaughtered at Daegu slaughter-house and the rate of isolation was 6.0 percent. Nine strains of Salmonella were isolated by enrichment in selenite F broth and one strain by direct culture on SS agar, but none of Salmonella were isolated from MacConkey ager and in SS broth. Among Salmonella isolated, Salmonella typhimurium occupied over half (6 strains) and the importance of Salmonella in swine for the incidence of food poisoning in man was discussed.

Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a bacterial biopesticide against insect pests, mainly lepidopterans. Spodoptera exigua and Plutella xylostella exhibit significant decreases in Bt susceptibility in late larval instars. To enhance Bt pathogenicity, we used a mixture treatment of Bt and other bacterial metabolites which possessed significant immunosuppressive activities. Mixtures of Bt with culture broths of Xenorhabdus nematophila (Xn) or Photorhabdus temperata ssp. temperata (Ptt) significantly enhanced the Bt pathogenicity against late larval instars. Different ratios of Bt to bacterial culture broth had significant pathogenicities against last instar P. xylostella and S. exigua. Five compounds identified from the bacterial culture broth also enhanced Bt pathogenicity. After determining the optimal ratios, the mixture was applied to cabbage infested by late instar P. xylostella or S. exigua in greenhouse conditions. A mixture of Bt and Xn culture broth killed 100% of both insect pests when it was sprayed twice, while Bt alone killed less than 80% or 60% of P. xylostella and S. exigua, respectively. Other Bt mixtures, including Ptt culture broth or bacterial metabolites, also significantly increased pathogenicity in the semi-field assays. These results demonstrated that the Bt mixtures collectively names "Bt-Plus" can be developed into potent biopesticides to increase the efficacy of Bt.

The effects of in vitro culture methods on morphological development and infectivity of Strongyloides venezuelensis filariform larvae ($L_3$) to rats were investigated. A significantly higher body length was observed in $L_3$ from filter paper culture ($597.3{\;}{\pm}{\;}32.2{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) than those in fecal (($509.9{\;}{\pm}{\;}35.0{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) and nutrient broth culture (503.3{\;}{\pm}{\;}31.0{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}) (P<0.05). Larval infectivity was assessed by exposing rats to 1,000 $L_3$ from each culture and worms were recovered from the lungs and small intestines. Recovery rate of these worms did not show any significant difference. A significantly greater body length of adults was recorded in those corresponding to the $L_3$ harvested from filter paper (2,777.5{\;}{\pm}{\;}204.4{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) and nutrient broth culture (($2.732.5{\;}{\pm}{\;}169.8{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) than those corresponding to the $L_3$ obtained from fecal culture (($2.600.5{\;}{\pm}{\;}172.4{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$) (P<0.05). Although worm fecundity and EPG counts differed among culture methods but worm burdens and course of infection did not. These findings suggest that the methods of cultures have a significant effect on the morphological development of the larvae to the $L_3$ stage, but do not influence the infectivity to rats.

Entomopathogenic nematodes are being used for insect control. We purified a toxin secreted by the insect-pathogenic bacterium, Xenorhadbus nematophilus, which lives in the gut of entomopathogenic nematodes. Culture broth of X. nematophilus was separated by centrifugation and concentrated by ultration. The concentrated culture broth was applied to a DEAE Sephadex A-50 column, and proteins were eluted stepwise with increasing concentrations of KCI. Fractions column. The molecty weight of purified toxin was39 kDa on SDS-PAGE, and Fourier tranformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy indicated that this toxin could be a new protein exhiting the charactristics of C=O stretching peak near 1650cm-1.

The anti-complementary activity (immuno-stimulating activity) was tested for the exo-polymers (extra-cellular polymer) produced from submerged mycelial cultures of 21 types of higher fungi. Anti-complementary activity of the exo-polymer from Cordyceps militaris showed the highest (69.0%) followed by Pleurotus ostreatus (63.7%) and Trametes suaveolens (61.4%). The mycelial growth rate and biomass doubling time of C. militaris in a 5 I air-lift fermenter were 0.0255 $h^{-1}$ and 27.2 h, respectively. The yield of the exo-polymer produced from the culture broth of C. militaris was 2.95 mg of dry weight/ml of culture broth. Sugar and amino acid compositions of this exo-polymer were analyzed.

Cultural conditions for mass production of the antagonistic bacteria, Bacillus subtills CAP134 against pathogens causing major airborne diseases to apple tree, effect of temperature, pH, carbon and nitrogen source in the culture broth were investigated. The bacterial growth was most vigorous when the temperature and pH of the culture broth was 30~$35^{\circ}$C, and 7, respectively. As for carbon source, dextrose was best followed in order by dextrose(monosaccharides)>sucrose(disaccharides)$\geq$saccharose(di-saccharides)>starch (polysaccharides). Among different sugars, bacterial growth was favored by in the order of brown, black and white sugars, indicating that the bacterial growth might be promoted by the minor elements presented as impurities in the less purified sugars. As for nitrogen source, organic forms were better to bacterial growth than inorganic forms, that is polypeptone was best followed in order by soy sauce, soybeen milk and inoganic nitrogens. Differences in bacterial growth among different forms of inorganic nitrogen were negligible.

Production of dye-decolorizing enzyme was investigated with the cultivation of Geotrichum candidum Dec1 (abbreviated to Dec1) using molasses as a cheap raw materials. Molasses was found to stimulate the enzyme production as well as a role of carbon source, because the production increased with molasses content up to 50 g/L. However, the severe inhibition of dye-decolorizing enzyme activity was observed even at low concentration of molasses 10 g/L when purified decolorizing peroxidase was used. Its inhibitory effect was reduced through the cultivation of Dec1. The fractions of molasses separated by a gel chromatography showed the different degrees of inhibition. As a way to reduce the inhibitory effect, the dilution of culture broth was examined, and the total decolorizing activity for Reactive blue 5 increased 7 times as much as that of original culture broth by 30 times dilution. On the basis of result, we proposed a process scheme which can fully utilize both positive and negative effect of molasses in dye-decolorizing process using molasses.

This study was carried out to clarify the effects of antifungal bacterial strains isolated from the greenhouse soil grown strawberry plants on the growth inhibition of plant pathogen, gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) infected in strawberry plants in Damyang and Jangheung districts. Antagonistic bacterial strains were isolated and investigated into the antagonistic activity against gray mold. Screened ten bacterial strains which strongly inhibited Botrytis cinerea were isolated from the greenhouse grown strawberry plants, and the best antifungal microorganism designated as SB 143 was finally selected. Antifungal bacterial strain SB 143 was identified to be the genus Bacillus sp. based on the morphological and biochemical characterization. Bacillus sp. SB 143 showed 59.4% of antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea. By the bacterialization of culture broth and heated filtrates of culture broth, Bacillus sp. SB 143 showed 93.1% and 32.1% of antagonistic activity against Botrytis cinerea.
