The changes in cheese casein components and the resultant palatability of the cheese were studied. Camember cheese was made with P. caseicolum and mixed lactic cultures and ripened for 45days. The pH value increased rapidly during ripening Water soluble, pH 4.6-soluble and non protein nitrogenous compounds were all increased during ripening. The electrophoretic patterns of pH 4.6-insoluble casein showed that the caseins were seperated into 4 bands after 10 days,12 bands after 45 days of ripening, ${\alpha}_{s1}-casein$ was completely degraded after 17 days of ripening and a targe percentage of ${\beta}-casein$ was broken down after 45 days of ripening. On gel filtration, pH 4.6-soluble casein fragments ripened for 10 days,24 days and 31 days were fractionated into 3,4 and 5 fractions respectively The sensory evaluation of Camembert cheese showed that cheese ripened for 31 days had the best palatability.

Human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (hG-CSF) is a hematopoiesis agent that principally affects the differentiation of neutrophils in the bone marrow. At present, recombinant hG-CSF is used successfully in the treatment of chemotheraphy-induced neutropenia and its indication has been expanded to bone marrow transplantation and aplastic anemia. In this study, we have constructed rhG-CSF secretion plasmid pYRC1 in which OmpA signal sequence/hG-CSF gene was expressed under the control of the T7 promoter. rhG-CSF produced in E. coli BL21 (pYRC1) grown at $37{\circ}C$ was found in aggregates. However, 15% of the periplasmic protein was soluble rhG-CSF when the E. coli BL21 (pYRC1) was cultured at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 h in the modified MBL medium containing 10 g/$\ell$ glucose with 10 $\mu$M IPTG induction. The production of soluble rhG-CSF in E. coli BL21 (pYRC1) using fed batch culture was also studied. In the fed batch culture system, the final yield of rhG-CSF produced from E. coli BL21 (pYRC1) was increased from 4.4 mg/$\ell$to 24 mg/$\ell$by controlling the specific growth rate from $0.43 h^{-1}$ to $0.14 h^{-1}$, and optimizing the time of induction.

In this study, broilers were raised up to 6 weeks of age in a single room to determine if different levels of dietary protein or addition of aluminum sulfate[alum, $Al_2$(SO$_4$)$_3$ㆍ14$H_2O$] to the litter affected growth performance, production of ammonia(NH$_3$) and soluble phosphorus(SP) content of the litter.The experimental treatments consisted of six treatments in a 2x3 factorial arrangements: T$_1$＝23% protein ＋ 0.2% alum to litter; T$_2$＝21% protein ＋ 0.2% alum to litter; T$_3$＝19% protein ＋ 0.2% alum to litter; T$_4$＝23% protein ＋ no alum; T$_{5}$＝21% protein ＋ no alum; T$_{6}$＝19% protein ＋ no alum. For broiler performance, there was no effect of alum addition to the litter, but the dietary protein levels significantly affected feed intake from days 22 to 42(P<0.05) and day 0 to 42(P< 0.05), weight gain during all periods(P<0.05 or 0.01), and feed:gain from day 0 to 21(P<0.05) and day 0 to 42(P<0.05). Alum addition to the litter did not affect body weight at 21 and 42 days, but dietary protein levels has a significant effect on it at both 21(P<0.0l) and 42 days(P<0.05). Alum addition only affected ammonia production at weeks 3(P

A water soluble spironaphthoxazine (SPO) was synthesized, and its spectral properties were determined. Under UV irradiation, colorless SPO shows intensive blue color while the intensity of its initial fluorescence decreased. In addition, SPO also exhibited high sensitivity to pH stimuli both in colorimetry and fluorometry distinguishing from the spectral appearance observed under UV irradiation. Further, integrating these two optical characteristics a three-state switching system can be established, and all interconversions can be observed by naked-eye.

Rapid production of therapeutic proteins such as angiostatin and endostatin angiogenic inhibititors has been highly demanded for cancer treatment. In this regard, recombinant human angiostatin and endostatin were successfully expressed as soluble forms by maltose binding protein (MBP)-mediated fusion expression in Escherichia coli. PCR amplified, angiostatin and endostatin genes from human placenta cDNA library were inserted into an expression vector pMAL-c2e to construct prokaryotic expression vectors, pMAL-c2e/AS and pMAL-c2e/ES, respectively. Recombinant angiostatin and endostatin were efficiently expressed in E. coli origami (DE3) after IPTG induction and protein expression were confirmed by SDS-PAGE analyses. The expressed recombinant proteins were purified near homogenity using an amylose affinty column chromatography. In contrast that previous E. coli expressions were all insoluble, our results first time demonstrated that MBP fused human angiostatin and endostatin were soluble in E. coli.

Changes in pH, EC and water soluble cation and anion of the bed material in the rearing box of earthworms were investigated while sewage sludges or night soil sludge were cumulatively supplied to the 15 grams of initial earthworm population in the rearing box. Initial biochemical properties of sludges such as pH, EC, V.S. and water content were at the edible levels for earthworm. However, as the cumulative amount of sludges supplied to the earthworms were increased, pH of bed material in the rearing box was lowered and EC was increased, which meant that salt contents of bed material in the rearing box had been accumulated. Water soluble cations and anions were also accumulated in the bed material of the rearing box. Accumulation rates of ${NO_3}^-$ were especially prominent. Consequently, feeding rates of earthworm populations were reduced to nearly zero and earthworm populations finally died.

To extract insoluble proteins of sesame meal residue by using microorganism, the sesame meal residue was treated with crude enzyme solution from Bacillus sp. CW-1121. It was found that the solubility reached to maximum at pH 7.5, $45^{\circ}C$. Under optimum condition, the nitrogen solubility with the enzyme solution from Bacillus sp. CW-1121 reached to 60% in 2 hours. Nitrogen solubility of protein from sesame meal showed minimum value at pH 4.5 and significantly increased above pH 6.0. When the protein from sesame meal extracted with Bacillus sp. CW-1121 was subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, water soluble protein was showed 4 bands and salt soluble protein was showed 2 bands. The amino acid composition of water soluble protein, salt soluble protein and free amino acid indicated relatively high contents of serine (17.24 mg/g), glutamic acid (10.77 mg/g) and glutamic acid (6.55 mg/g). Specially, the contents of essential amino acids were high.

In order to understand chemical characteristics and formation of dewfall in Busan, we analysed monthly distribution of dewfall, and investigated its chemical composition of dewfall. This study used the modified teflon plate $(1m{\times}1m)$ at Jangyongsil science high school from June 2005 to October 2005. In order to estimate qualitatively water soluble components, IC, ICP and UV methods for water soluble ions are also used respectively. Dewfall amount of sampling periods (26 day) collected 1.29 mm. Distribution of water soluble ions in dewfall founded the highest concentration $(81.3{\mu}eq/{\ell}\;for\;NO_3^-,\;146.6{\mu}eq/{\ell}\;for\;SO_4^{2-},\;and\;114.3{\mu}eq/{\ell}\;for\;nss-SO_4^{2-})$ during the June. pH was the lowest by 5.12 June, and October (pH 6.68) by most high and average pH was 5.46. Monthly equivalent ratio of $[SO_4^{2-}]/[NO_3^-]$ showed the highest value (2.94) during the September, the lowest value (1.77) during the July, and the mean value was 3.45.

Collagen is a family of proteins which consists of several genetically distinct molecular species and is intimately involved in tissue organization, function, differentiation and development. The purpose of this study was to investigate the concentration of different hydroxyproline (Hyp) fractions viz., total, free, peptide-bound, protein-bound, soluble- and insoluble-collagen hydroxyproline (Hyp) in various bovine tissues. Results showed that liver had the highest concentration of free Hyp followed by kidney, brain, spleen, lungs, muscle and heart. Liver also had the highest concentration of peptide-bound collagen Hyp followed by kidney, heart, spleen, lungs, brain and muscle. The concentration of protein-bound collagen Hyp was highest in the liver, followed by kidney, spleen, lungs, muscle, brain and heart. Total Hyp was highest in the liver, followed by kidney, spleen, brain, heart, muscle and lungs. Liver also had significantly high concentration of collagen as compared to other tissues examined (P<0.001). Spleen had the significantly higher concentration of soluble-collagen Hyp when compared to other tissues (P<0.001). This was followed by heart, muscle, lungs, brain, kidney and liver. Heart had the highest concentration of insoluble-collagen Hyp followed by lungs, kidney, liver, muscle, spleen and brain. The variation among the insoluble-collagen Hyp concentration of heart and muscle, spleen and brain was significant (P<0.001). We speculate that these differences could be due to the variation in turn over of rate of collagen metabolism in this species.
