Two-stage fed-batch culture of Candide tropicalis that was designated primarily to cultivate the cell in the glucose medium (1st stage) and then produced the xylitol from xylose medium (2nd stage) was developed to improve a xylitol yield and productivity. In the growth stage, glucose was automatically supplied to the fermentor by pH-stat mode when the pH was up 5.7, When a feeding medium was added in order to reach the glucose and yeast extract concentrations up to 100 and 40 g/L, respectively, a high cell concentration and a relatively low ethanol concentration were obtained in 18.5 h culture. In the production stage, initial xylose concentration of 150 g/L was the most favorable for obtaining the final xylitol concentration and productivity. The addition of mineral salts was also enhanced a xylitol production. But the aeration rate was not significantly affected a xylitol production. When the addition of 16 g yeast extract and 232.5 g xylose powder at the production stage was used, xylitol yield and productivity were significantly increased. With these conditions, xylitol concentration, yield and productivity of 108.9 g/L, 74%) and 3.3 g/L·h, respectively, were obtained in a final volume of 1.58 L. The further addition of 16 g yeast extract and 232.5 g xylose powder increased the working volume partly (1.67 L) and resulted in a relatively high xylitol concentration, yield and productivity of 193 g/L, 70% and 3.6 g/L·h, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to develop a muffin containing dried leek powder. The complete analysis was conducted using the Design Expert 7 program (Stat - Easy Co., Minneapolis, MN, USA). The leek muffins were produced with varying amounts of leek powder (A), sugar (B), and butter (C). According to response surface methodology (RSM), there were 16 experimental points, including two replicates. The leek muffin formulation was optimized using rheology and sensory analyses. For the results, a quadratic model was applied in determining lightness, volume, hardness, and sensory characteristics, including flavor, texture, and overall quality; redness and height were represented by a linear model. Lightness decreased and redness increased with increasing amounts of leek powder (p<0.001). In addition, hardness displayed significant differences (p<0.001) with increasing amounts of leek powder. The sensory evaluation results showed significant differences for color, flavor, texture, and overall quality (p<0.05). Based on the numerical and graphical methods, the optimal formulation was determined as 8.30 g of leek power, 88.37 g of sugar, and 81.70 g of butter.

The purpose principal objective of this study was to develop a muffin with the addition of jinuni bean powder. The whole Our analysis was conducted by using using Design Expert 7(Stat - Easy Co. Minneapolis). The jinuni bean muffin was produced by varying the contents of jinuni bean powder(A), sugar(B), and butter(C). According to the Response Surface Methodology(RSM), it showed we delineated 16 experimental points, including two replicants. The optimization We attempted to optimize of the jinuni bean muffins was studied with regard to its analysis of rheology and sensory evaluations. As a result of the redness, hardness, and sensory evaluations, characteristics such as color, appearance, flavor, softness, and overall quality showed a varied in accordance with a quadratic model, whereas lightness, yellowness, and cohesiveness, and gumminess showed evidenced a linear model pattern. Lightness, and yellowness decreased with the increases in the of jinuni bean powder content(p<0.0001), while whereas redness increased with the increases of in the content of jinuni bean powder(p<0.001), in case of over 80g, the redness tended to increase decrease again. In addition, hardness(p<0.05), gumminess(p<0.05), and cohesiveness(p<0.01) showed differed significantly differences with the increases of in the jinuni bean powder content. The results of our sensory evaluation results showed demonstrated significant values in color, appearance, flavor, softness,and overall quality values(p<0.05). The optimal formulation, as assessed by numerical and graphical methods, were was determined to be 50.05 g of jinuni bean powder, 78.56 g of sugar, and 90.97 g of butter.

Focusing on native plants that have high possibility of being introduced as rooftop material, this study was conducted to investigate extensive and easy-to-manage rooftop garden and to raise the utilization of native plants by verifying their growing response to artificial substrate soil depth and irrigation period. The study was conducted from March to September in 2002. Plants tested included Chrysanthemum zawadskii, Sedium middendorffianum, Thymus quinquecostatus, Allium senescens, and Dianthus superbus. Regarding soil depth, it was 5 cm and 10 cm. Irrigation period was non-irrigation, 1-week, 2-weeks, and 3- weeks, Its result is as follows; 1. In case of Sedum middendorffianum Maxim, mortality rate was 0% regardless of soil depth and irrigation period making it very suitable material for rooftop garden. 2. In case of Allium senescens L., mortality rate was 0% regardless of soil depth and irrigation period making it very suitable material for rooftop garden. Therefore, Provided that fertilizing is managed well, it is a plant that can be highly utilized.3. In case of Chrysanthemum zawadskii Herb. Subsp. (Nakai) Y. Lee Stat., the growth of top was lower in 10cm than in 5cm and it grew well in 10cm. When utilizing for rooftop garden, it would be desirable to keep minimum viable soil depth at over 10cm. If there is enough rainfall, soil and soil depth seem to have greater effect on growth than irrigation period does. 4. In case of Diauthus superbus L. var. longicalycinus (Maxim) Williams, rooting rate and growth were better in 10cm than in 5cm. Therefore, it is desirable to keep minimum soil depth at over 10cm. 5. In case of Thymus quinquecostatus Celak, the growth of top and flowering were better in 10cm than in 5cm. Therefore, it seems desirable to have minimum viable soil depth to be over 10cm. In conclusion, the most suitable species for rooftop garden are Sedium middendorffianum and Allium senescens in this experiment. However, Chrysanthemum zwadskii, Thymus quinquecostatus, and Dianthus chinensis also can be utilized greatly when irrigation is managed regularly in artificial mixed soil over 10cm.

Glucose fed-batch culture was studied to improve cellulose productivity by Acetobacter xylinum BRC5. When initial glucose concentrations in batch cultures were less than 20 g/L, yield coefficients of cellulose (Yp/s) remained a constant value of 0.21 g cellulose/g glucose. But a low yield coefficient, Yp/s=0.13 was obtained from an initial glucose concentration of 40 g/L. Since initial high glucose concentrations in batch culture resulted in low yields of cellulose, constant fed-batch cultures were carried out. The optimal feed rate for fed-batch culture was 2.22 g glucose/L.h. In constant fed-batch culture without DO control, 10 g/L of cellulose was obtained from 40 g/L of glucose with this feed rate, which was approximately two fold higher than that of the batch culture with the same initial glucose concentration. In DO stat plus fed-batch culture, the highest cellulose productivity could be obtained when dissolved oxygen level was controlled at 10% of air saturation, and cellulose productivity increased about 1.5 times compared with that of the culture without DO control.
