Gibberellic acid (GA$_3$) is a commercially important plant growth hormone, which is gaining much more attention all over the world due to its effective use in agriculture and brewing industry. Industrially it is produced by submerged fermentation technique using Ascomycetous fungus Gibberella fujikuroi. Solid state and immobilized cell fermentation techniques had also been developed as an alternative to obtain higher yield of GA$_3$. This review summarizes the problems of GA$_3$ fermentation such as production of co-secondary metabolites along with GA$_3$, substrate inhibition and degradation of GA$_3$ to biologically inert compound gibberellenic acid, which limits the yield of GA$_3$ in the fermentation medium. These problems can be overcome by various bioprocessing strategies e.g. two - stage and fed batch cultivation processes. Further research on bioreactor operation strategies such as continuous and / or extractive fermentation with or without cell recycle / retention system need to be investigated for improvement in yield and productivity. Down stream processing for GA$_3$ isolation is also a challenge and procedures available for the same have been critically evaluated.

여러 크기의 이중실관 생물 반응기에서의 Aspergillus niger(KCTC 1232)를 이용한 구연산 생산 실험을 수행하였다. 초종 세포농도는 세포 성장구간 기준으로 300g/l에 달하였다. 공기와 산소의 공급 조건하에서의 단위 용적당의 생산성은 각각 0.63, 0.02g/l.h였고 이는 회분식 발효에 대해 10, 16배 증가한 결과이다. 공급배지의 초기 pH는 구연산의 생산에 중요한 요소이며 pH가 낮을수록 높은 구연산 생산수율을 얻을 수 있었다. Scale-up의 가능성을 알아보기 위해 반응기 unit와 배지의 공급속도를 변화시킨 결과 반응기 unit와 배지 공급속도의 증가는 기질의 높은 소비속도로 인해 생산성의 증가를 가져왔다.

In this study, we synthesized a mediator immobilized biocatalyst([FCA/GOx]/PEI/CNT) by surface modification using ferrocene carboxylic acid(FCA), and evaluated its performance as anode catalyst for biofuel cell. Through the application of FCA on glucose oxidase (GOx), the free amine groups on the lysine residue of GOx surface reacted with carboxylic acid of FCA and make amide bond between GOx and FCA. As the result of that, the electron transfer of catalyst was increased up to 1.91 times($0.468mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$) than the catalyst without surface modification (GOx/PEI/CNT), and high maxium power density of $1.79mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ was gained.

Lauryl alcohol을 추출제로 사용한 에탄올 추출발효를 통하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. GC를 이용한 분배계수의 측정은 Fredenslund의 UNIFAC법을 이용한 계산치보다는 고천 낮은 값을 보이나 Minier의 측정치와는 잘 일치하고, 에탄올 농도 2-10%일때 분배계수는 0.6에 달했다. 2. 물과 에탄올은 비점이 비슷하여 95% 이상의 고순도 에탄올을 단증류로 얻기 어렵지만, LaOH는 비점($225^{\circ}C$)이 높아 에탄올과 비점차가 많이 나므로 대기압하에서 단 한번의 단증류로 87% 이상의 에탄올을 거의 모두 회수할 수 있었다. 3. TBP의 경우와 마찬가지로, LaOH의 농도가 높아 질수록 lag phase는 연장도지만, 기질 소모속 도는 추출제가 없는 경우와 비교했을때 크게 변하지 않았으며, 적응과정을 거침으로써 LaOH에 의한 lag phase 지연호과가 제거되었고, 고정화 방법 또한 lag phase를 줄이는데 교과적인 방법이었다. 4. $400\;g/\;{\ell}$ 포도당 용액의 회분 추출발생에서 LaOH/medium의 비가 4였을때 포도당은 거의 전화가 되었으며, 전체에탄올생산성은 $2.75g/\;{\ell}.hr$로 비유출의 $0.99g/\;{\ell}{\cdot}hr$보다 2.78배 증가하였다. 5. 고정화 연속 혼합 발효조에서 기질유량 $25\;{m{\ell}}/hr$, LaOH유량 $100\;{m{\ell}}/hr$일때 생산성은 $5.23\;g/{\ell}.hr$로 비유출의 $3.06\;g/{\ell}.hr$보다 1.7배 증배하였다. 6. film fermentor에서 기질농도 $200\;g/{\ell}$, 기질유출 $25\;{m{\ell}}/hr$, LaOh 유량 $100\;{m{\ell}}/hr$일때 생산성이 $5.01\;g/{\ell}.hr$로 연속 혼합 발효조에서 보다 낮은 값을 보였으나, 대체로 비슷한 양상을 보였으며, 비에탄올생산성은 고천 더 놓은 값을 나타내었고, 연속 혼합 발효조 안의 bead 내 효모보다 낮은 전단력을 받기 때문에 세포가 덜 유출되었다.

Experimental bioinformatics data obtained from an E. coli cell-based eukaryotic protein purification experiment were analyzed in order to identify any bottleneck as well as the factors affecting the target purification. All targets were expressed as His-tagged maltose-binding protein (MBP) fusion constructs and were initially purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). The targets were subsequently separated from the His-tagged MBP through TEV protease cleavage followed by a second IMAC isolation. Of the 743 total purification trials, 342 yielded more than 3 mg of target proteins for structural studies. The major reason for failure of target purification was poor TEV proteolysis. The overall success rate for target purification decreased linearly as cysteine content or isoelectric point (pI) of the target increased. This pattern of pI versus overall success rate strongly suggests that pI should be incorporated into target scoring criteria with a threshold value.

Shikonin production was examined in a bubble column bioreactor system with the hairy roots of Lithosphermum erythrorhizon. The volumetric productivity was higher than those obtained from other reactor configurations with free or immobilized cells of the same cell line. The productivities of the bubble column reactor, with and without a product absorption trap, were 7.4 and 4.5 mg of shikonin/l/d, respectively. This indicated the importance of the product removal in the design and operation of the shikonin production system with hairy root culture.

Threelectrodes systems were used in stripping voltammetry (SW) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) instead of the expensive platinum and Ag/AgCl reference electrodes. Moreover, the electrolyte solution was used with deep seawater, which can reduce water pollution, is more eco-friendly, and has a lower cost. The analytical optimum parameters measured via CV and SW and with working ranges were obtained from 10 to 80 ug/L using fluorine immobilized on a graphite pencil electrode (FE). Under the optimum conditions, the analytical detection limit of 6.30 ug/LAu was obtained. The results of the study can be applied to diagnostic assay for natural minerals and human finger tissue.

The three electrode system was used to detect the pesticide fenitrothion ($C_9H_{12}NO_5PS$. MW=277.24) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). The working electrode was mercury immobilized on a carbon nanotube paste electrode (Hg-CNTPE). At the optimized condition, the limit of detection (LoD) was 0.6 ppt ($2.16{\times}10^{-12}\;M$), and the relative standard deviation was 0.035% (n=15). And there is more sensitive in detecting fenitrothion than common type carbon nanotube paste electrode. When it was implanted into the brain of live fish (carp), the existence of fenitrothion was measured without any destruction or damage of tissue.

The present study was conducted in three fields at Namhae to examine the removal efficiency of organic free, heavy metal immobilized sediment on Cochlodinium polykrikoidesand and on sea water quality. The present study results concluded that removal efficiency was depends on the initial number of red tide cells. There was no drastic change in the sea water quality after sediment spray. For the comparison of effectiveness of betonite, zeolite and lime were mixed with sediment did not show any marked difference in removal. Finally, the present study evaluated 50g/$m^{2}$ sediment is sufficient to remove 100% cells density, even though various environmental factors are interfering the mechanism.

Chitosan/alginate capsules were formed by electrostatic interactions and had appropriated mechanical strength, permeability to albumin, and stability to hepatocytes. Rat hepatocytes were isolated and immobilized in chitosan/alginate capsules. During the encapsulation process with hepatocyte, 10% of viability was decreased mainly due to the low pH of the chitosan solution. Among various capsule fabrication methods, the chitosan-alginate capsule showed the highest mechanical strength. Addition of collagen in the capsule with hepatocytes enhanced hepatic metabolism as well as the cell viability for 2 weeks of culture. The hepatocyte in the capsule without collagen decreased the viability to 10% for 2-week cultures.
