In this study, fire-retardant chemicals were melt with mixed composition ratios of dibasic ammonium phosphate and each half of boric acid and borax in hot water, in which hammer-milled chips were immersed to increase swelling of waste particleboards. Also, fire-retardant treated particles from sawn lumber chip and recycled particleboard chip were composed in ratio of 70:30 in core layer to improve boards' properties. Retention ratio of fire-retardant chemicals for the particles for face layer was high due to high specific surface area, and that of sawn lumber chips was somewhat higher than that of recycled particleboard chips. The mixture of particles from sawn lumber chips and recycled PB of 70:30 in weight ratio exceeded bending strength of 100 $kgf/cm^2$. It seemed that the relatively greater portions of dibasic ammonium phosphate affected adversely to dimensional stability, however fire-retardants treatment resulted in distinct effect lowering formaldehyde emission such as $E_0$ type(0.5mg/$\ell$ or less) in KS F 3104. In fire-retardancy, the recycled boards with a mixed ratio of dibasic ammonium phosphate to boric acid borax(50:50 mixture) of 70% to 30% in weight satisfied fire-retardancy 3rd grade in KS F 2271, and also this composition from cone calorimeter test met same standard grade figuring total heat release of 4.6MJ/$m^2$.

As a fundamental study on the development of porous concrete for planting, this study is designed to present the properties of porous concrete by varying the kinds of cement, paste to aggregate ratio and dosage of AE admixture. As the results of experiment, the void volumes show 30~33%, 25~ 28% and 17~22% respectively, with paste to aggregate ratio of 20%, 30% and 40%. And unit weight is 1700~1900kg/㎥ while compressive strengths 40~60, 8 0~100 and 120~150kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. pH of concrete shows a sufficient value at which the plant could grow, when the concrete is permeated in Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic for more than 1 hour. In brief, it shows a possibility of development of porous concrete if the concrete is permeated with permeating in Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic for more than 1 hour when the blast furnace slag cement is used.

The microorganisms producing a lipoxygenase inhibitor were screened from a wide variety of sources. The isolated strain was assigned to genus Penicillium by its cultural and morphological characteristics. The proper medium for the production of lipoxygenase inhibitor was composed of glucose 3.0%, ammonium sulfate 0.4%, and potassium phosphate (dibasic) 0.1%. The cultivation for lipoxygenase inhibitor production was carried out in 500m1 Erlenmyer flasks containing 100m1 of the medium at $30^{\circ}C$ by cultivating reciprocally. The highest lipoxygenase inhibitor production was observed after 8 days of cultivation. The inhibitor was the low molecular weight substance and inhibited specifically soybean origin lipoxygenase.

Cultural conditions for the production of extracellar $\beta$-galactosidase by Loctobacillus sporogenes, a spore forming lactic acid bacterium, were investigated with shaken flask and jar fermenter cultures. The fermentation medium giving maximum $\beta$-galactosidase yield was found to consist of 1 % lactose as a carbon source, 1.5% peptone as an organic nitrogen source. 0.2% ammonium sulfate as an inorganic nitrogen source, 0.8% ammonium phosphate dibasic as a phosphorus source, and 0.05% potassium chloride and 0.001% ferric chloride as mineral source. Optimal initial pH of the medium was 7.0 and the highest enzyme excretion was observed after 40 hours of cultivation at 37$^{\circ}C$. In this experiment, the 500$m\ell$ conical flask containing 50-200$m\ell$ of medium was shaken at 140 strokes per minute with 7cm amplitude in a reciprocating shaker. The maximum enzyme value attained was 38 U/$m\ell$ of the culture broth which was found to be slightly higher than the highest intermolecular enzyme activity (30 U/$m\ell$) observed after 24 hours of incubation. In the fermentor culture, the fermentation profile was shown to be similar to that observed in the shaken flask experiment. But the maximum extracellular enzyme activity was 45 U/$m\ell$ to be even higher than the value obtained with the shaken flask culture.

In this study, culture conditions were optimized to confirm the feasibility of Acetobacter pasteurianus as a starter for fermentation vinegar. Acetobacter pasteurianus strain can be used as a food ingredient. The optimal temperature and pH conditions of the selected Acetobacter pasteurianus SRCM101388 were 28℃ and pH 6.00, respectively. The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the composition of the medium, and Plackett-Burman design (PBD) was used to obtain the effective selection of culture medium, resulting in that glucose, sucrose, and yeast extract had the highest effect on increasing biomass. The optimal concentration, which was performed by central composite design (CCD), were determined to be 10.73 g/L of glucose, 3.98 g/L of sucrose, and 18.73 g/L of yeast extract, respectively. The optimal concentrations of trace elements for the production of biomass were found to be 1 g/L of ammonium sulfate, 0.5 g/L of magnesium sulfate, 2 g/L of sodium phosphate monobasic, 2 g/L of sodium phosphate dibasic, and the final optimized medium was pH 6.10. When incubated in a 5 L jar fermenter, the SRCM101388 strain showed a faster-dissolved oxygen (DO) reduction at a lower agitation rate (rpm), and it was able to grow even at reduced DO level when aeration was maintained. The amount of final biomass produced was 2.53±0.12×10⁹ CFU/mL (9.40±0.02 log CFU/mL) when incubated for 18 hours at 150 rpm, 0.5 vvm, pH 6.0, and 28℃.

Candide tropicalis was selected for its ability to utilize spent waste generated by the alcohol distillery using tapioca starch as a raw material. Optimum pH and temperature on batch culture of the organism were 4.0 and 3$0^{\circ}C$. The growth of the organism was markedly increased when 0.2% of ammonium sulfate, 0.002% of potassium phosphate dibasic, add 0.04% of magnesium sulfate were supplemented to the filtrate. At these conditions, maximum specific growth rate and saturation constant were 1.0 hr$^{-1}$ and 4.4 g.1$^{-1}$ , respectively. At a dilution rate of 0.5hr$^{-1}$ , a productivity of 1.84 g.1$^{-1}$ . hr$^{-1}$ was obtained and about 70% of carbohydrate was assimilated. Protein content of dried cell was about 60%.

The biosynthesis of Lovastatin, a cholesterol lowering agent formed by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus terreus, was investigated in shaking flask. The effects of essential elements in the experimental medium such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphate sources, and amino acids were examined to increase Lovastatin productivity. Lovastatin production in shaking flasks was 68 mg/L in the used medium. Effect of carbon source on Lovastatin production was performed. As a carbon source in the medium, 45 mL/L of glycerol increased the Lovastatin production up to 256 mg/L, which was found to be improved almost 3.5 times in comparison with that in common medium. The optimum concventration of peptonized milk as nitrogen source was obtained 30g/L on Lovastatin production. The severe inhibition of the cell growth and the Lovastatin production were observed in shaking flasks conducted at the medium contained ammonium carbonate as a nitrogen source. Lovastatin production various concentrations of several phosphate compounds was also examined. The addition of either potassium phosphate diabsic or sodium phosphate dibasic increased the Lovastatin production and the optimal level of potassium phosphate dibasic was 6 g/L. Even though Lovastatin contain methionine-derived methyl group, L-methionine and DL-methionine tend to diminish the Lovastatin production. Among the amino acids, L-histidine and L-tryptophan had a remarkable enhancing effect on the Lovastatin production. The optimal concentration of L-histidine and L-tryptophan was 6g/L.

In a previous study, a new antibacterial activity was found from Paenibacillus polymyxa DY1 isolated from Korean soil, which showed a good growth inhibition against various multidrug resistant enteric bacteria. Thus the effect of nutritional factors and physicochemical conditions on the growth of P. polymyxa DY1 cells and the production of antibacterial activity were evaluated in this study. For the growth of P. polymyxa DY1 cells the optimum condition reaches by incubating at $35^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours by shaking at 180 rpm in the basal medium containing 0.6% dextrose, 1.4% ammonium phosphate dibasic, 0.9% peptone, 2.4% glutamine, and 2 mM sodium molybdate with initial pH 8.0. A maximum level of antibacterial activity was obtained when P. polymyxa DY1 was incubated at $35^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours by shaking at 180 rpm in the basal medium with initial pH 8.0 containing 1% dextrose, 1.5% ammonium sulfate, 1.1% casamino acid, 1.9% aspartic acid, and 2 mM ferrous sulfate.
