  • The purpose of this study was to predict the actions and roles of 10 strains of representative psychrotrophic lactic acid bacteria, in kimchi fermentation, which were Isolated from kimchi and identified as Leu. mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides, Leu. mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum, Leu. lactic, Leu. paramesenteroides, Lac. bavaricus and Lac. homahiochii. For this, 0.01% of tactic starters were inoculated in germ free Korean cabbage-juice containing 2.5% NaCl, and then cultivated for 14 days at 1$0^{\circ}C$. All strains grew actively, and reached their stationary phase in 4 days. In death phase, the slopes of curves were much different each other by strains. The acidity increased rapidly between 2 and 4 days, and the pH decreased rapidly between 2 and 3 days. The total acidity was 0.5B~0.75%, the volatile acidity 0.04~0.18% and the pH 3.55~3.85, in final cultures. The cultures of Leuconostocs were better than those of lactobacilli on flavor test. It was thought that the ripening periods of kimchi would be much reduced, and that the over ripening would be also somewhat avoided, when these strains were used as starter bacteria for kimchi and the kimchi was fermented at low temperature.

  • In this study, the effect of elicitors such as yeast extract (YE), methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and salicylic acid (SA) on the accumulation of eurycomanone in Eurycoma longifolia cell cultures were investigated. Suspension cells of E. longifolia was cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 30 g/L sucrose, 1.25 mg/L naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 1 mg/L kinetin at a shaking speed of 120 rpm. Elicitors were added in the culture at different concentrations and times to stimulate eurycomanone accumulation in the Eurycoma longifolia cells. Eurycomanone content was determined by HPLC with a C18 column, flow rate of 0.8 mL/min, run time of 17.5 min, and a detector wavelength of 254 nm. The stationary phase was silica gel and the mobile phase was acetonitrile: $H_2O$. Non-elicited cells were used as the control. The study showed the effect of different elicitor concentrations, YE at 200 mg/L, MeJA at $20{\mu}M$ and SA at $20{\mu}M$ stimulated high production of eurycomanone. In which, treatment of $20{\mu}M$ MeJA after 4 days of culture resulted in the highest accumulation of this compound (17.36 mg/g dry weight), approximately 10-fold higher than that of untreated cells (1.70 mg/g dry weight).

  • Conventional Real Time Kinematics (RTK) collect measurements in stationary state for several minutes to resolve the integer ambiguity in the carrier phase measurement or resolve the integer ambiguity on the move assuming low maneuvering movement. In this paper, an On The Move-RTK (OTM-RTK) technique that resolves the integer ambiguity on the move for fast and precise positioning of ground vehicles such as high maneuvering vehicles was proposed. The OTM-RTK estimates the precise amount of movement between epochs using the carrier phase measurements acquired on the move, and by using this, resolves the integer ambiguity within a short period of time by evaluating the integer ambiguity candidates for each epoch. This study analyzed the integer ambiguity resolution performance using field driving experiment data in order to verify the performance of the proposed method. The results of the experiment showed that the precise trajectory including the initial position bias can be obtained prior to resolving the integer ambiguity, and after resolving the integer ambiguity on the move, it was possible to obtain the bias-corrected precise position solution. It was confirmed that the integer ambiguity can be resolved by collecting measurements of about 10 epochs from the moving vehicle using a dual frequency receiver.

  • This paper proposes a grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system, consisting of Voltage-fed dual-active-bridge (DAB) dc-dc converter with single phase inverter. The proposed converter allows a small dc-link capacitor, so that system reliability can be improved by replacing electrolytic capacitors with film capacitors. The double line frequency free maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is also realized in the proposed converter by using Ripple Correlation method. First of all, to eliminate the double line frequency ripple which influence the reduction of DC source capacitance, control is developed. Then, a designing of Current control in DQ frame is analyzed and to fulfill the international harmonics standards such as IEEE 519 and P1547, $3^{rd}$ harmonic in the grid is directly compensated by the feedforward terms generated by the PR controller with the grid current in stationary frame to achieve desire Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). 5-kW PV converter and inverter module with a small dc-link film capacitor was built in the laboratory with the proposed control and MPPT algorithm. Experimental results are given to validate the converter performance.

  • To examine the growth-phase dependent control of Escherichia coli rnpB gene we used a combination of Northern analysis for RNA determination and Southern analysis for plasmid DNA determination. The relative amounts of metabolically unstable transcript derived from the internally deleted rnpB gene harbored on a multicopy plasmid as well as the relative plasmid contents were measured by Northern analysis and Southern analysis, respectively, of total nucleic acids from E coli cells containing the plasmid. The relative transcription activity of the rnB was represented by a ratio of the relative amount of the transcript to that of the plasmid DNA during bacterial growth. The rnpB transcription increased rapidly with time during exponential growth, but started to decrease before the transition period of an exponential growing cell culture into the stationary phase. Although the expression pattern was similar to the changes of ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity expressed from the lysogenic strain carrying the chromosomal rnpB-lacZ fusion which were shown in a previous work, the present data appears to represent a more actual growth-phase control of the rnpB transcription than the previous data by the ${\beta}-galactosidase$ assay. In addition the present method described for a direct analysis of both RNA and plasmid DNA provides a rapid and efficient method that can applied to an examination of transcription control by using a multicopy plasmid.

  • In chromatographic separation, HETP(height equivalent to a theoretical plate) is a useful quanititive parameter and it is wildely designated as column efficiency. The effects of operating conditions (sample concentration, injection volume, flow rate and mobile phase composition) on HETP were investigated in perparative liquid chromatography (PLC). Water and organic modifier of methanol were used as mobile phase. The sample of thymidine was injected into preparative C18 columns. The system was run by a isocratic mode in 1.5~5.5ml/min. The larger amounts of sample and higher flow rates of mobile phase increased HETP, which means that column efficiencies were worse. As the weight of sample injected into a chromatographic system could be prepared with different concentrations and injection volumes, for the same amount of sample, HETP was approximately increased two times with the ten-fold injection volume. HETP was mainly affected by the resistance of stationary and mobile phase mass transfer in the intraparticle section of packings at higher velocities.

  • Riverbank filtration is a natural process, using alluvial aquifers to remove contaminants and pathogens in river water for the production of drinking water. In Korea, most of the drinking water is supplied by surface water in-take. However, maintaining the quality of the drinking water becomes more and more difficult due to the increase of contamination. In riverbank filtration, the understanding of contaminant transport is an important task for the production of high quality drinking water and for the maintenance of facilities. In this paper, the transport behavior of hydrophobic organic contaminants is investigated when contaminants coexist with dissolved organic matter (DOM) and bacteria. In the developed model, the aquifer is thought of as a four phase system: two mobile colloidal phases, an aqueous phase, and a stationary solid matrix phase. The model equations are solved numerically for various situations. Results indicate that the presence of colloidal matters can enhance the mobility of contaminant significantly and that partitioning coefficients play an important role in the process.

  • ${\alpha}$-lactalbumin and ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin in whey proteins were separated by high performance membrane chromatography (HPMC). The separation mechanism involved anion-exchange, and the stationary phase was anion CIM (Convective Interaction Media) DEAE, QA disk and cation exchanger SO$_3$(16${\times}$3 mm). Two types of mobile phase were used, buffer A (20 mM Tris-HCI, pH 7.3) and buffer B(buffer A + 1 M NaCl), As the amount of NaCl dissolved in buffer linearly increased, which enabled a gradient elution mode. The optimum mobile phase and operating condition (Buffer A/Buffer B = 100/0 - 30/70 vol%, gradient time 1 min, 30/70 - 10/90 vol.%, gradient time 2 min) were experimentally determined. In this experimental condition, ${\alpha}$-lacta1bumin, ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin were separated within 5 min at a mobile phase flow rate of 4 mL/min.

  • In batch bioreactor fermentations for cyclosporin A (CyA) production, good potential for bioprocess improvement was demonstrated in the immobilized cell system, providing appreciably better utilization of the catalytic activity of the biomass than the freely suspended cells, especially during the exponential phase. When concentrated nutrient medium was added pulsely during the exponential phase of cell growth(at hour 139 of fermentation), reactivation and regermination in both immobilized and suspended cell cultures were observed to contribute to the longevity of CyA production, maintaining maximum CyA titre until 250 hours of fermentation. Contrarily, simple batch fermentations without any supplement of medium in both systems showed repid decrease in CyA concentrations during the late stationary phase. Notably, the CyA yield coefficient $(Y_p/x)$ for the immobilized cell system was maintained quite high even after the pulse addition of the concentrated full medium, reaching almost 80% of the level attained during the exponential phase. This is in sharp contrast when compared with the corresponding value of 58% in the case of parallel-suspended cells. This pattern of CyA production resulted in considerably enhanced CyA production in the immobilized cell system, reaching almost 2 time higher maximum CyA production in comparison with the free cell system.

  • Cell cultures of Camptotheca acuminata, which is known to produce the anticancer indole alkaloid camptothecin and its dervatives, were made to enhance the productivity of camptothecin. In suspension cultures, the maximum cell growth rate in exponential growth phase was $0.269day^{-1}$ which was correlated to 2.58days of cell doubling time. The production of camptothecin was non-growth associated. The camptothecin production was the highest at 11th day form inoculation and then it decreased. Various elicitors were applied to enhance the production of camptothecin. Both of jasmonic acid and cellulase increased the production of camptothecin. The optimal dosing time of elicitor was the beginning of the cultures. The combination of two elicitors was more effective to produce camptothecin than single applications. $20.42{\times}10^{-3}mg/\ell$ of camptothecin was obtained with combined application of two elicitors in two days.
