생물고분자 생산 균주를 분리하여 동정한 결과, 분리균주는 Gram 음성의 간균으로 내생포자를 형성하지 않았으며, nitrate 환원과 catalase 반응에서 양성이고, oxidase 반응에서 음성인 통성 혐기성의 한 균주로 분류학상의 위치를 검토한 결과, Enterobacter sp.로 판단하였다 이 균주가 생성하는 생물고분자는 정색반응, CPC 침전, IR 분석 등에 의해 우론산을 함유한 산성의 다당인 것으로 추정되었다. TLC 및 GC에 의해 조사한 결과, mannose, galactose 및 galacturonic acid로 구성된 hetero 다당이었으며, 분자량은 약 3.7$\times$$10^{5}$이었다. 이다당의 수용액(0.5-2.0%, w/v)은 비뉴우톤 유체로 항복응력을 갖는 의가소성 유체로서 거동하였으며, 1.5% 농도 이상의 낮은 농도에서 겔 형성능을 나타내었다.다.

The hypolipidemic effect of the exe-biopolymer (EXBP) and endo-biopolymer (ENBP) produced from a submerged mycelial culture of Ganoderma lucidum was investigated in dietary-induced hyperlipidemic rats. Hypolipidemic effects were achieved in both the EXBP- and ENBP-treated groups, however, the former proved to be more potent than the latter. The administration of the EXBP (100 mg/kg body weight) substantially reduced the plasma total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipid levels, and atherogenic index by 31.0, 39.0, 35.4, 28.1, and 53.5%, respectively, when compared to the control group. The EXBP also lowered the liver total cholesterol, triglyceride, and phospholipid levels by 22.4, 23.1, and 12.9%, respectively. Furthermore, the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and ratio of HDL cholesterol to total cholesterol were significantly increased by as much as 24.2% and 47.6%, respectively.

The anti-tumor effects of exo- (EX) and endo-biopolymers (EN) produced from submerged mycelial cultures of Ganoderma applanatum (GA), Collybia confluens (CC), and Pleurotus eryngii (PE) were studied using Sarcoma 180 bearing mice. Solid tumor growth was inhibited most effectively when 40 mg/kg body weight (BW) of GA-EX or PE-EN was administered to the intraperitoneal (i.p.) cavity of BALB/c mice. The spleen and liver indexes were increased in mice following i.p. administration of GA-EX and PE-EN fractions. GA-EX and PE-EN reduced the tumor formation by 30.7% and 29.4%, respectively. GA-EX and PE-EN increased the natural killer (NK) cell activity of splenocytes by 41.3% and 28.9%, respectively.

Hypoglycemic effects of exo-biopolymers (EBP) produced by submerged mycelial cultures of Coriolus versicolor, Cordyceps sinensis, Paecilomyces japonica, Armillariella mellea, and Fomes fomentarius were investigated in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. The rats from each experimental group were orally administered with EBPs (100 mg/kg BW) daily for 2 weeks. Though the hypoglycemic effect was achieved in all the cases, however, C. versicolor EBP proved as the most potent one. The administration of the C. versicolor EBP substantially reduced (29.9%) the plasma glucose level as compared to the saline administered group (control). It also reduced the plasma total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels by 9.22, 23.83, 16.93, and 27.31%, respectively. The sugar and amino acid compositions of this EBP were also analyzed in detail.

썩은 나무 잎에서 세포외 생물고분자 응집제를 생 산하는 흰 곰팡이를 분리하여 Pestalotiopsis sp. M01로 동정하였다. 이 균주가 생산하는 생물고분자 응집제의 응집활성에 대한 배양 조건을 무기염 배지인 Czapek-Dox 배지를 기초로 하여 탄소원, 질소 원, 배지의 pH멸, 그리고 옹도별로 조사하였다. 그 결과로서 응집활성 조건은 3 % sucrose, 0.3 % $KN0_3$, pH 7, 그리고 $25^{\circ}C$에서 최대 응집활성을 나타내었다. 반면에 이 균주의 생육 조건은 3% su-crose, 0.3 % $KN0_3$, pH 5, 그리고 $25^{\circ}C$에서 최대 생육을 나타내었다.
