  • A high ${\beta}$-glucosidase (BGL)-producing strain, Stereum hirsutum, was identified and isolated and showed a maximum BGL activity (10.4 U/ml) when cultured with Avicel and tryptone as the carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. In comparison with other BGLs, BGL obtained from S. hirsutum showed a higher level of activity to cellobiose ($V_{max}$ = 172 U/mg, and $k_{cat}$ = 281/s). Under the optimum conditions (600 rpm, $30^{\circ}C$, and pH 6.0), the maximum BGL activity of 10.4 U/ml with the overall productivity of 74.5 U/l/h was observed. BGL production was scaled up from a laboratory scale (7-L fermenter) to a pilot scale (70-L fermenter). When S. hirsutum was cultured in fed-batch culture with rice straw as the carbon source in a 70-L fermenter, a comparable productivity of 78.6 U/l/h was obtained. Furthermore, S. hirsutum showed high levels of activity of other lignocellulases (cellobiohydrolase, endoglucanase, xylanase, and laccase) that are involved in the saccharification of biomasses. Application of S. hirsutum lignocellulases in the hydrolysis of Pinus densiflora and Catalpa ovata showed saccharification yields of 49.7% and 43.0%, respectively, which were higher than the yield obtained using commercial enzymes.

  • Nitrogen is one of the most critical nutrients affecting cell growth and biochemical composition of microalgae, ultimately determining the lipid or carbohydrate productivity for biofuels. In order to investigate the effect of nitrogen sources on the cell growth and biochemical composition of the marine microalga Tetraselmis sp., nine different N sources, including NaNO3, KNO3, NH4NO3, NH4HCO3, NH4Cl, CH3COONH4, urea, glycine, and yeast extract were compared at the given concentration of 8.82 mM. Higher biomass concentration was achieved under organic nitrogen sources, such as yeast extract (2.23 g L−1) and glycine (1.62 g L−1), compared to nitrate- (1.45 g L−1) or ammonium-N (0.98 g L−1). All ammonium sources showed an inhibition of cell growth, but accumulated higher lipids, showing a maximum content of 28.3% in ammonium bicarbonate. When Tetraselmis sp. was cultivated using yeast extract, the highest lipid productivity of 36.0 mg L−1 d−1 was achieved, followed by glycine 21.5 mg L−1 d−1 and nitrate 19.9 mg L−1 d−1. Ammonium bicarbonate resulted in the lowest lipid productivity of 14.4 mg L−1 d−1. The major fatty acids in Tetraselmis sp. were palmitic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids, regardless of the nutritional compositions, indicating the suitability of this species for biodiesel production.

  • 말잘피 게바다말은 우리나라 동해안의 암반조하대에 우점하는 잘피로, 이 곳 연안생태계에서 중요한 기능을 수행한다. 그러나 심한 파도에 노출된 거친 생육 환경으로 인해 지금까지 게바다말의 생태 자료는 미비한 실정이다. 본 조사에서는 동해남부해역에 서식하는 게바다말의 생태적 특성을 알아보기 위해 2017년 8월부터 2018년 7월까지 게바다말 군락지의 환경과 게바다말의 형태적 특성, 밀도, 생체량과 잎 생산성의 변화를 조사하였다. 수중광량과 수온은 봄과 여름에 증가하고 가을과 겨울에 감소하는 뚜렷한 계절 경향을 보였다. 해수의 영양염 농도는 조사 시기마다 유의한 차이를 보였으나, 뚜렷한 계절 변동은 나타나지 않았다. 게바다말의 형태, 밀도, 생체량과 잎 생산성도 가을에 감소하고 봄에 증가하였다. 게바다말의 육수화서는 2월 이후 나타났고, 5월에 최대 비율(15.8%)을 보인 후 8월 이후 탈락되었다. 게바다말의 개체당 및 단위면적당 평균 잎 생산성은 각각 2.1 mg sht-1 d-1과 7.5 g m-2 d-1이었다. 게바다말의 생장이 가장 활발한 수온은 13-14℃로 조사되었다. 게바다말의 잎 생산성은 수중광량, 수온, 영양염 농도와 유의한 상관관계가 나타나지 않았다. 이는 이 지역이 게바다말 생장에 필요한 충분한 빛, 적절한 수온 범위와 영양염 농도를 제공함을 의미한다.

  • Controlling the dissolved oxygen (DO) in the fed-batch culture of the medicinal mushroom Ganoderma lucidum led to a 2-fold increase of the maximum biomass productivity compared with uncontrolled DO conditions. By contrast, extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) production was two times higher under oxygen limitation (uncontrolled DO) than under increased oxygen availability (controlled DO). Morphologically, dispersed mycelium was predominant under controlled DO conditions, with highly branched hyphae, consistent with the enhanced culture growth noted under these conditions, whereas in the uncontrolled DO process mycelial clumps were the most common morphology throughout the culture. However, in both cultures, clamp connections were found. This is an exciting new finding, which widens the applicability of this basidiomycete in submerged fermentation. In rheological terms, broths demonstrated shear-thinning behavior with a yield stress under both DO conditions. The flow curves were best described by the Herschel-Bulkley model: flow index down to 0.6 and consistency coefficient up to 0.2 and 0.6 Pa $s^n$ in uncontrolled and controlled cultures DO, respectively. The pseudoplastic behavior was entirely due to the fungal biomass, and not to the presence of EPS (rheological analysis of the filtered broth showed Newtonian behavior). It is clear from this study that dissolved oxygen tension is a critical process parameter that distinctly influences G. lucidum morphology and rheology, affecting the overall performance of the process. This study contributes to an improved understanding of the process physiology of submerged fermentation of G. lucidum.

  • Bicarbonate has been considered as a better approach for supplying CO2 to microalgae cells microenvironments than gas bubbling owing to cost-effectiveness and easy operation. However, the β-carotene production was too low in Dunaliella salina cultivated with bicarbonate in previous studies. Also, the difference in photosynthetic efficiency between these two carbon sources (bicarbonate and CO2) has seldom been discussed. In this study, the culture conditions, including NaHCO3, Ca2+, Mg2+ and microelement concentrations, were optimized when bicarbonate was used as carbon source. Under optimized condition, a maximum biomass concentration of 0.71 g/l and corresponding β-carotene content of 4.76% were obtained, with β-carotene yield of 32.0 mg/l, much higher than previous studies with NaHCO3. Finally, these optimized conditions with bicarbonate were compared with CO2 bubbling by online monitoring. There was a notable difference in Fv/Fm value between cultivations with bicarbonate and CO2, but there was no difference in the Fv/Fm periodic changing patterns. This indicates that the high concentration of NaHCO3 used in this study served as a stress factor for β-carotene accumulation, although high productivity of biomass was still obtained.

  • 현재까지 연구로는 흰목이 균사체에서 EPS 생산과 균사생장에 대한 적정 정치배양 조건이 연구되었다. 본 연구로부터 탄소원과 질소원의 처음 농도, 균사 형태와 발효조의 타입의 선택은 흰목이 균사체 EPS 생산에 가장 영향을 미친다는 것을 알게 되었다. 이들 결과는 공기주입식 반응기에서 EPS 생산성은 진탕탱크 반응기 보다 더 높았다는 점을 증명하였다. 또한 흰목이 균사의 정치배양의 생리적 생장에 대한 지식은 아직도 제한적이다.

  • Production of extracellular polysaccharide by Monilinia fructigena in B-I medium containing cereals was higher than that in glucose medium. Productivities in B-I medium and glucose medium were 0.7g/l nd 0.2-03g/l respectively. The maximum content of polysaccharide occurred at the rising point from the lowest pH of culture. As the apparent viscosity of the polysaccharide solution increased, the flow Index (m) decreased, and the consistency Index (Kc) also increased. The polysaccharide solution was a typical pseudoplastic fluid. The mycelium was separated from the culture solution by $300\mu m$ mesh-filter and the polysaccharide was precipitated by adding 50% of ethanol (v/v). The amount of the polysaccharide removed from the filtrated solution was 0.45 g/l and the amount adhered to the mycelium was 0.25g/l. In experiments for investigating growth enhancement of rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis) by the polysaccharide, the dose of the polysaccharide was 1mg per 10,000 organisms of rotifer. Maximum specific growth rate of rotifer with feed consisting of sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide was 1.095/day in the batch culture for 10 days. A semi-continuous culture was done for 30 days, the biomass of rotifer could be harvested twice. Maximum specific growth rate with sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide was 0.734/day before the first harvest, and 1.685/day before the second harvest. Productivity was 38 $cells/ml\; \cdot\; day$ with sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide.
