In order to determine the position and the content of fatty acids sttached to glycerides and the migration degree of fatty acids in the migration reaction, fish oil was hydroyzed with lipolase-100T which was derived from Aspergillus oryzae. The content of fatty acids in the glyceride mixture was analyzed and compared with that of fish oil. The amounts of fatty acid in a 2-position and the migration degree of the fatty acid in 2,3-DG (diglyceride) and 2-MG (monolyceride) were carefully calculated. The results showed that approximately 95% (w/w) of DHA (docosahexanoic acid) and 65% of EPA(eicosapentaenoic acid) were attached to the 2-position of glycerides in fish oil. Approximately 87% (w/w) of DHA and 75% of EPA remained in 2,3-DG, and 88% of DHA and 65% of EPA in 2-MG were not involved in the migration reaction.

방사선을 이용한 화분의 저장방법을 개선하기 위하여 저장중인 메밀 화분으로 부터 곰팡이를 분리, 동정하고 이들의 방사선 감수성을 조사하였다. 분리, 동정된 곰팡이는 Penicillium jenseni, Aspergillus oryzae, Asp. niger, Alternaria SP. 으로 이들 포자의 $D_{10}$ 값은 각각 0.43, 0.54, 0.58, 0.97kGy 이었고, 유도선량은 각각 0.23, 0.18, 0.23, 0kGy이었다. Pen. jenseni 포자의 방사선 감수성은 용존산소하에서 증가하였으며 이에 열처리를 병용하였을 때는 유도선량이 현저하게 감소하였다. 화분 중의 총세균과 곰팡이의 $D_{10}$ 값은 각각 1.25kGy와 $1.50{\sim}4.30kGy$이었다.

3'-Hydroxygenistein can be obtained from the biotransformation of genistein by the engineered Pichia pastoris X-33 strain, which harbors a fusion gene composed of CYP57B3 from Aspergillus oryzae and a cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase gene (sCPR) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. P. pastoris X-33 mutants with higher 3'-hydroxygenistein production were selected using a periodic hydrogen peroxide-shocking strategy. One mutant (P2-D14-5) produced 23.0 mg/l of 3'-hydroxygenistein, representing 1.87-fold more than that produced by the recombinant X-33. When using a 5 L fermenter, the P2-D14-5 mutant produced 20.3 mg/l of 3'-hydroxygenistein, indicating a high potential for industrial-scale 3'-hydroxygenistein production.

효소는 생물이 만드는 단백질로서 화학반응을 촉진시키는 촉매이다. 현재까지 알려진 효소의 종류는 약 3,000종이 되며 그 숫자는 해마다 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 이 가운데 산업적 응용 가능효소는 150여종이며 상업적으로 생산되고 있는 효소는 60여종이 된다. 효소의 산업적인 이용은 1894년 소화제인 takaamylase가 Aspergillus oryzae의 배양에 의하여 생산된 이래 $\alpha$-amylase와 동물에서 pancreatin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, 사람의 소변에서 urokinase와 식물체에서 protease등이 공업적으로 생산되고 있다. 효소는 화학촉매보다 많은 장점을 가지고 있는데 온건한 반응조건에서 촉매력과 기질특이성(specificity)이 높고 부산물(by-product)이 적다. 그러나 효소의 폭넓은 산업적인 이용은 아직 많이 제한되어 있는데 대체적으로 열, 화학물질, protease, 반응환경등에 의해 쉽게 불활성화되기 때문이다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 많은 노력을 기울여 왔고 산업적인 필요성에 부응하여 1993년말 이래 미국, New Zealand, Ireland 등지에서 별도의 학술적인 모임이 열렸다. 본 고에서는 현재 식품산업에서 사용되고 있는 효소와 그의 특성, 효소 개발기술 및 국내외 효소시장 현황을 중심으로 개술하고자 한다.

In order to select probiotics with a high survival rate in gut and the growth inhibition of virulent pathogens to human beings or animals, we have examined a variety of microorganisms to assess the acid, bile, and pancreatic tolerance and the growth inhibition of E. colt O8 and Salmonella choleraesuis ATCC 8391. Lactobacillus acidophilus KCTC 3155 was shown to inhibit the growth of E. coli and Salmonella dramatically within 24 h of incubation, although it was vulnerable to the exposure of bile acids. Bacillus polyfermenticus showed a good growth inhibition against E. coli, with a moderate acid and bile tolerance, while Clostridium butyricum KCTC 1786 inhibited the growth of E. coli and Salmonella slightly with a good bile tolerance. However, Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 7928 and Aspergillus oryzae KCTC 6075 did not inhibit the growth of E. coli and Salmonella, suggesting that these microorganisms can be used as the sources of nutritional suppliment rather than as probiotics itself.

To identify antimicrobial activities of soybean paste, studies have been carried out with laboratory manufactured soybean paste, traditional and improved type soybean paste purchased on the market. The soybean paste fermented with Aspergillus oryzae and Rhizopus tamari and commercial soybean paste were shown antimicrobial activities for Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphy lococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella typhimurium. Non fermented soybean paste did not show antimicrobial activities against Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus faecalis. The extract of soybean paste extracted by 80% methanol showed the highest antimicrobial activities of in ethyl acetate fraction and followed butanol fraction, respectively. Antimicrobial activities of traditional and improved type soybean paste were shown against all tested microorganisms and clear zone length of traditional soybean paste was slightly larger than that of improved type. Components of antimicrobial fractions of soybean paste were guessed peptides, 4 hydroxy benzoic acid, benzoic acid by GC MS.

Dynamics of certain $N_2$fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium, Azospirillum and Azotobactor, nodule number in dominant legume, Atylosia trinervia, P-solubilizing bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi were studied in unburned and burned site of natural grassland, southern India. Population of $N_2$- fixing bacteria, P-solubilizing bacteria, fungi and nodule number in legume increased significantly in burned sites. On the other hand, the actinomycetes population remained unchanged. Thirty six species of fungi with tricalcium phosphate solubilizing ability were recorded. The most efficient P-solubilizing fungi recognised in the soils of the study sites are Absidia ramosa, Gongronella butlerii, Mortieralla spinosa, Mucor racemosus, Rhizopus nigricans, R. stolonifer, R. oryzae, Aspergillus fumigatus, A. nidulans, A. niger Theilavia terricola and Cheatomium lunasporium.

Irradiation with high doses of gamma rays induced the reduction of mycelial weight and anaylase activity, and increased relative amylase activity in surface cultures. Biphase in growth curves was shown in aeration-agitation cultures but the behavior of the first phase of growth could be eliminated by replacing the amylasehydrolysed starch substrates, so that enzyme production was shortened ca. 40 hours and relative amylase activity was increased about 3 times higher before onset of autolysis. In the effect of gibberellin on amylase production, the positive stimulation was appeared to only surface culturs of the liquid medium and the negative effect to shake-cultures in a mutant. Trials of various continuous culture were resulted not only the approalch to the value of amylase activity in surface cultures of liquid medium, but also higher productivity than in batch cultures. The culture-degeneration was observed in two-stage continuous culture, but did not appear in continuous elevation culture.

We characterized the character impact compounds of flavors of the fermented Korean soy sauce manufactured with both the traditional and the improved Meju made with different strains. The whole flavor samples were obtained by extracting each volatile flavor phase from both the traditional and the improved soy sauce. To get more detailed information, each whole volatile flavor was further fractionated into the basic, acidic, phenolic and neutral fractions. Each separated peak from the whole and fractionated flavor samples on gas chromatogram was identified by GC/MS and Kovat s retention index, and likewise the aroma of each peak was investigated by a sniffing test with the exercised panel. We were able to identify 15 groups of ingredients with the characteristic soy sauce aroma from the soy sauce made with the traditional Meju and 6 groups from the soy sauce manufactured with the improved Meju made with Aspergillus oryzae. The character impact compounds the two soy sauces were different from each other.

In this study, the volatile compounds in 9 commercial fermented soybean pastes were extracted and analyzed by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), respectively. A total of 63 volatile components, including 21 esters, 7 alcohols, 7 acids, 8 pyrazines, 5 volatile phenols, 3 ketones, 6 aldehydes, and 6 miscellaneous compounds, were identified. Esters, acids, and pyrazines were the largest groups among the quantified volatiles. About 50% of the total quantified volatile material was contributed by 5 compounds in 9 soybean paste samples; ethyl hexadecanoate, acetic acid, butanoic acid, 2/3-methyl butanoic acid, and tetramethyl-pyrazine. Three samples (CJW, SIN, and HAE) made by Aspergillus oryzae inoculation showed similar volatile patterns as shown in principal component analyses to GC-MS data sets, which showed higher levels in ethyl esters and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol. Traditional fermented soybean pastes showed overall higher levels in pyrazines and acids contents.
