A new crystal form of valsartan dipotassium was isolated by recrystallization using the one-pot method. The new crystal form was identified as a monohydrate form ($C_{24}H_{27}N_5O_3K_2.H_2O$) and characterized by diffential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray powder diffractometry (PXRD). The new crystal data demonstrated to be clearly different from those known for the tetrahydrate form ($C_{24}H_{27}N_5O_3K_2.4H_2O$). It was observed that the monohydrate of vasartan dipotassium salt was completely dissolved in water within 1 hour and its dissolution rate was much faster than anhydrous free form of valsartan.

The optimal culture conditions on bacteriocin producing of Lactobacillus sp. FF-3 isolated from Korean Dongchimi, were studied for enhancing its production with regard to environmental and nutritional factors. The optimal cultivation time, initial pH and temperature were 21 hours, pH 7.0 and 30∼37$^{\circ}C$ respectively. Optimal compositions of culture medium for bacteriocin production were glucose 3% as carbon source, tryptone 4% as nitrogen source, and manganese sulfate 0.005% as inorganic salt with other basal components. The maximum antimicrobial activity was 484 BU/mL under the optimal culture condition.
