A lysozyme gene from breast of Tibetan sheep was successfully expressed by secretion using a-factor signal sequence in the methylotrophic yeast, Pichia pastoris GS115. An expression yield and specific activity greater than 500 mg/L and 4,000 U/mg was obtained. Results at optimal pH and temperature showed recombinant lysozyme has higher lytic activity at pH 6.5 and $45^{\circ}C$. This study demonstrates the successful expression of recombinant lysozyme using the eukaryotic host organism P. pastoris paving the way for protein engineering. Additionally, this study shows the feasibility of subsequent industrial manufacture of the enzyme with this expression system together with a high purity scheme for easy high-yield purification.

One of the typical assumptions of the studies to determine economic production quantity is that yield rate of a given manufacturing process is 100% or constant after setup. However, in the real world, there are many manufacturing processes of which yield rates are quite low just after setup and then increasing with time until they reach the target rates which are set strategically. This period is usually called "stabilization period". During the stabilization period, defectives are produced, which incur cost (defective cost). In this study, an optimal production quantity for this situation is presented. Also, it is shown that defective cost acts like setup cost and therefore, increases the economic production quantity.

We investigate the triboelectrostatic separation of polyvinylchloride (PVC) from mixed plastics in the laboratory scale triboelectrostatic separation system. The flow and electric fields in the precipitator are obtained from the numerical solution of finite volume method. Using these flow and electric fields, we solved the particle motion equation considering the inertia, drag, gravity and electrostatic forces acted on the particles. The particle trajectories are obtained using a Lagrangian method as a function of different important variables such as Reynolds number, Stokes number, electrostatic force, electric charge and electric field distribution, inclined angle of plane electrodes, particle rebounding, particle charge decay rate after impact on the electrode surface, etc., in order to determine the optimal design conditions. The present predicted results for the cumulative yield represent well the experimental ones.

In this study, the design of prestressed die for spur gear forging have been investigated. The stress concentration at notch of the die insert is very important in the design of die for the forging of spur gear such as non-axisymmetric geometry. In the previous study, the flexible tolerance method was used in order to search the optimal value of design variables considering the constrain conditions. In the design process, it was also involved the safety factor to the yield strength of each ring by considering allowable tensile or compressive hoop stress in each ring. Using this technique, the die deign for spur gear forging has been successfully performed without yielding of the die after shrink fitting and during forging.

Transformed roots of Schisandra chinensis were obtained following co-cultivation of in vitro cultivated plantlet segments with Agrobaterium rhizogens ATCC15834. This root was examined for its growth and gomisin J contents under various culture conditions. Among the six basal culture media tested, WPM (Lloyd & McCown, 1980) medium supplemented with 5% sucrose was the best roots growth 6.2 (g D.W/flask) and gomisin J accumulation 1.56 $(X10^{-3}\;ug/g\;D.W)$. Initial inoculum size correlated with the yield of biomass while gomisin J contents was not affect. Gomisin J production was influenced by the initial sucrose concentration and the highest production yield was achieved at the concentration of 7%. The optimal shaking speeds for roots growth and gomisin J production was 120 and 140 rpm, respectively.

A flocculating sugar tolerant yeast strain was isolated from fermenting Takju. This strain was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae CA-1 according to the Lodder's yeast taxonomic studies. The isolated yeast could grow in 50% glucose and in 7% ethanol in the YPD medium. It's optimal growth temperature, initial pH, shaking rate and initial glucose concentration for ethanol fermentation showed 35$\circ$C, 4.5, 150 rpm, 15%, respectively. Ethanol concentration was 63 g/l in 20% glucose after 24 hours, fermentation yield was 0.49 g-ethanol/g-glucose in 10% glucose after 24 hours and ethanol productivity was 3.09 g/l$\cdot $h in 10% glucose after 12 hours in batch fermentation. Repeated batch fermentation was possible for over 50 days and ethanol yield, ethanol productivity and substrate conversion rate were 0.39-0.50 g/g, 1.63-2.08 g/l$\cdot $h and more than 99%, respectively during these periods.

Foliar treatment with different concentrations of potassium chloride (KCl) to mulberry plants resulted in higher level of total chlorophyll, total sugars, soluble protein, in vivo nitrate reductase activity (NRA), net photosynthetic rate (NPR), pWUE and leaf yield. Optimal concentration was found to be 10.0 mM KCl with limited irrigation provided in the mulberry plantation planted in 90 ${times}$ 90 cm spacing. The deleterious effect of soil moisture stress condition has been found to be overcome by KCl foliar spray twice at 15 days interval. Regression and correlation coefficients were analyzed, and a strong positive correlation was found between chlorophyll and total sugars, soluble protein and in vivo nitrate reductase activity, leaf dry weight and net photosynthetic rate and pWUE and net photosynthetic rate.

A comprehensive kinetic study has been conducted on dimethyl carbonate synthesis by transesterification reaction of ethylene carbonate with methanol. An alkali base metal (KOH) was used as catalyst in the synthesis of DMC, and its catalytic ability was investigated in terms of kinetics. The experiment was performed in a batch reactor at atmospheric pressure. The reaction orders, the activation energy and the rate constants were determined for both forward and backward reactions. The reaction order for forward and backward reactions was 0.87 and 2.15, and the activation energy was 12.73 and 29.28 kJ/mol, respectively. Using the general factor analysis in the design of experiments, we analyzed the main effects and interactions according to the MeOH/EC, reaction temperature and KOH concentration. DMC yield with various reaction conditions was presented for all ranges using surface and contour plot. Furthermore, the optimal conditions for DMC yield were determined using response surface method.

This study was intended to investigate the effects of solvents, particle size of a sample, sample to solvent ratio, temperature and time on the extraction of garlic oleoresin. Among eleven solvents used for oleoresin extraction from garlic, the optimal solvent was methyl alcohol. The most appropriate particle size of garlic, extracting temperature and mixing ratio of garlic to methyl alcohol were 20mesh, $25^{\circ}C$ and 1 to 3(w/w), respectively. On the basis of yield in oleoresin extraction, optimum extracting time was about 4 hours. The yield of oleoresin under the above-mentioned conditions was 21.3%. "L" and "b" as color appearance were decreased, whereas "a"was increased slightly during 60 days storage at 5$^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ and 4$0^{\circ}C$. Changes in the pyruvate content showed close relation to pH value. During storage pyruvate content of garlic oleoresin was decreased as increasing storage temperature.
