대장균 변이주를 이용한 L-트립토판의 최적생산을 위해 목적산물의 생산과 유기산의 생성과의 상호관계를 조사한 결과 비 산생성속도(specific acid production rate)가 증가할수록 L-트립토판의 생산이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 L-트립토판 발효시 산의 생성량을 줄이기 위해 조절식 유가배양법을 도입하였는데 이 배양공정에서는 배양액내의 용존산소농도에 따라 영양배지의 유가속도를 조절하는 방식을 사용하여 세포증식속도를 제한, 세포의 산소요구량이 공급량을 초과하지 않도록 하였다. 이러한 조절식 유가배양법으로 대장균 세포를 배양한 결과 기존의 유가배양식에 비해 비 산생성속도가 현저하게 감소하였으며 L-트립토판의 생산은 5배 정도나 증가되었다.

고농도 유전자 재조합 대장균을 이용하여 pyruvate dehy-drogenase complex-E2 특이성 인간 모노클론 항체의 Fab 부분을 효율적으로 생산하기 위해 회분식, 이단 연속식, 반 유 가식, two-stage cyclic fed-batch 동 여러 가지 배양 방법이 조사되었다. 먼저 플라스미드 안정성 문제를 극복하기 위해 growth stage와 production stage를 분리하는 two-phase 회분식 배양과 이단 연속식 시스템을 시도하였다 그 결과 two-phase 회분식 배양보다는 이단 연속식 배양에서의 세포농도와 항체 생산성이 우수하였다 또한 이단 연속식 배양에서의 세포 성 장과 항처l 생산성은 용존산소를 제어한 경우가 그렇지 않은 경우보다 월등하게 높았다. 그리고 plasmid 안정성에 있어서 는 실험기간 내에 거의 100%를 유지하여 높은 안정도를 보 여주었다. 유가식 공정에 적합한 공급 배지로 변형된 M9 배 지가 최적배지로 선정되었고 이 배지 중 최적의 CjN 비율을 조사한 결파 2:3으로 결정되었다. 반 유가식 시스템에서 constant feeding 전략을 사용할 경우 최적 공급속도는 $0.6g/\ell/hr$이었다. 또한 pulse에 의해 공급배지를 공급할 경우에는 총 공급 량이 같을 경우 소량으로 자주 공급해 주는 것이 공급배지를 한꺼번에 많은 양을 공급해주는 것 보다 바람직하였다. 여러 가지 feeding 전략을 조사해 본 결과 linear feeding 방법이 가장 효과적이었다. 하지만 linear feeding 방법마저도 고농도 세포배양에 한계가 있었기 때문에 pH-stat 방법을 이용한 two-stage cyclic fed-batch 시스템을 시도하여 $54 g/\ell$의 세포 를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 이 방법이 일단 생산성 향상을 위한 세포의 고농도 배양에는 조사한 여러 배양 시스템 중에 가장 효율적인 시스템임올 알 수 있었다 하지만 이 시스템 에서 포도당을 낮은 level로 유지할 수 있었으나, 초산의 과도한 축적으로 항체 생산성의 향상은 예상에 비해 크지 않았다.

A highly productive fed-batch fermentation process was developed for the production of L-ornithine by using a new stabilized strain, Breviabcterium ketoglutamicum BK52. Fed-batch cultures with a continuous feeding of the complex medium were conducted on various operating conditions. The optimal concentration of phosphate in the complex medium was 2.1g/L. The optimal feeding rate of L-arginine was 0.028g/L/hr. The optimal feeding point of the complex medium was determined to be at 40 OD of the cell mass. The final L-ornithine concentrations within 64hrs of cultivation in 5 and 50 liter fermenters were 73g/L and 71g/L, respectively. The maximum overall L-ornithine productivity was 1.14g/L/hr which was about 2 times higher than that of the conventional fed-batch culture with intermittent feeding. The overall productivity of the fermentation system is remarkably improved by employing the optimized conditions, and it offers a significant potential for industrial application.

To enhance the production of flavonoids [baicalin, wogonin-7-Ο-glucuronic acid (GA)], which are secondary metabolites of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi(G.) plant cells, a multilayer perceptron control system was applied to regulate the substrate feeding in a fed-batch cultivation. The optimal profile for the substrate feeding rate in a fed-batch culture of S. baicalensis G. was determined by simulating a kinetic model using a genetic algorithm. Process variable profiles were then prepared for the construction of a multilayer perceptron controller that included massive parallelism, trainability, and fault tolerance. An error back-propagation algorithm was applied to train the multiplayer perceptron. The experimental results showed that neurocontrol incorporated with a genetic algorithm improved the flavonoid production compared with a simple fuzzy logic control system. Furthermore, the specific production yield and flavonoid productivity also increased.

Guggulsterone, a hypolipidemic natural agent, is produced in resin canals of the plant Commiphora wightii. In this study, the stimulatory effects of growth retardants [ALAR (N,N-dimethylaminosuccinamic acid) and CCC (chlormequat chloride)] and fungal elicitor on guggulsterone accumulation in cell cultures of C. wightii are reported. CCC at $1\;mg\;l^{-1}$ enhanced guggulsterone content (${\sim}123\;{\mu}g\;l^{-1})$ when added on the fifth day after inoculation, while ALAR at $2.5\;{\mu}g\;l^{-1}$ increased guggulsterone content (${\sim}116\;{\mu}g\;l^{-1}$) when added on the tenth day. In a two-stage fed-batch process, combined treatment with fungal elicitor and growth retardant caused a significant increase (${\sim}353\;{\mu}g\;l^{-1}$) in guggulsterone content in cell cultures after 17 days of growth. This represents an approximately fivefold increase over the guggulsterone contents in initial cultures of this plant.

The optimization of fed-batch yeast fermentation process has been performed using genetic algorithm(GA). Three strategies were designed and applied to obtain the optimal feed rate profiles. Genes in the chromosome (input variables for optimization) included feed rates on fixed time intervals (strategy I), or swiching times $t_s1\;and\;t_s2$, and feed rates on singular arc (strategy II), or feed rates and the length of time interval (strategy III). Strategy III showed the best results for all initial conditions due to efficient utilization of genetic information. Simulation results using GA showed similar or better performance compared with previous results by variational caculus and singular control approach.

Sequencing Batch Reactor(SBR) experiments for organics and nutrients removal have been conducted to find an optimum anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic cycling time and evaluate the applicability of oxidation-reduction potential(ORP) as a process control parameter. In this study, a 61 bench-scale plant was used and fed with night-soil wastewater in K city which contained TCODcr : 10, 680 mg/l, TBm : 6, 893 mg/l, $NH_4^+-N$ : 1, 609 mg/l, $PO_4^{3-}-P$ : 602 mg/l on average. The cycling time In SBRs was adjusted at 12 hours and 24 hours, and then certainly included anaerobic, aerobic and inoxic conditions. Also, for each cycling time, we performed 3 series of experiment simultaneously which was set up 10 days, 20 days and 30 days as SRT From the experimental results, the optimum cycling time for biological nutrient removal with nlght-soil wastewater was respctively 3hrs, 5hrs, 3hrs(anaerobic-aerobic-anoxic), Nitrogen removal efficiency was 77.9%, 77.9%, 81.7% for each SRT, respectively. When external carbon source was fed in the anoxic phase, ORP-bending point indicating nitrate break point appeared clearly and nitrogen removal efficiency increased as 96.5%, 97.1%, 98.9%. Phosphate removal efficiency was 59.8%, 64.571, 68.6% for each SRT. Also, we finded the applicability of ORP as a process control parameter in SBRs.

A process of organically bound germanium preparation was developed for healthy food using inorganic germanium adapted Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Adaptations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae against inorganic germanium were successively carried out through stepwise increase of GeO$_{2}$ concentration in order to produce high quantities of germanium bound yeast. Productivity of yeast and quantities of germanium in yeast were obtained 70.2 g/l and 9780 ppm, repectively, when adapted yeast and fed batch culture were used. Germanium taken-up yeast is to be organically bound germanium by evidence of no difference of germanium content after dialysis.

An extractive fermentation process using pervaporation was studied in a 7 liter fermentor. Pervaporation was performed using a silicone membrane module and a low-acid-producing strain Clostridium acetobutylicu, B18 was used to produce butanol. In batch culture without pervaporation pH 5.5 and initial glucose concentration of 60 g/L resulted in the highest butanol productivity (0.216 g/L$.$h) with butanol yield of 0.261 Butanol flux through the membrane was best at 2.0 L/min-tubing of air flow rate In batch and fed-batch fermentation glucose consumption rate increased by 1.3 times with pervaporation.

Production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)［P(3HB/V)］, by fed-batch culture of recombinant Escherichia coli harboring a plasmid containing the Alcaligenes latus polyhy-droxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis genes, was examined in two pilot-scale fermentors with air supply only, In a 30 L fermentor having a XLa value of 0.11 S­$^1$, the final P(3HB/V) concentration and the P(3HB/V) content obtained were 29.6 g/L and 70.1 wt%, respectively giving a productivity of 1.37 g P(3HB/V)/L-h. In a 300 L fermentor having a XLa of 0.03 S­$^1$, the P(3HB/V) concentration and the P(3HB/V) content were 20.4 g/L and 69 wt%, respectively giving a productivity of 1.06g P(3HB/V)/L-h. These results suggest that economical production of P(3HB/V) is possible by fed-batch culture of recombinant E. coli in a large-scale fermentor having low KLa value.
