(R,S)-3-amino-n-butanoic acid에 대한 광학분할 능력이 우수한 균주 Alcaligenes denitrificans Y2k-2를 토양으로부터 분리하였다. 광학분할 반응에 관계하는 효소는 트랜스아미나제로 추정되며, 아민 수용체에 대한 특이성에서 크기가 작을수록 반응성이 높아지는 경향이 있다. pyruvate에 의한 기질저해 현상이 나타나는데, 효율적인 생산 체계를 갖추기 위해서 이 문제를 해결할 필요가 있으며 현재 효소의 정확한 특성을 파악하기 위한 실험을 진행 중이다.

Low-cost and large-scale fabrication method of nanohole array, which comprises nanoscale voids separated by a few tens to a few hundreds of nanometers, has opened up new possibilities in biomolecular sensing as well as novel frontier optical devices. One of the key aspects of the nanohole array research is how to control the hole size following each specific needs of the hole structure. Here, we report the extensive study on the fine control of the hole size within the range of 500-2500 nm via surface-catalyzed chemical deposition. The initial hole structures were prepared via conventional photo-lithography, and the hole size was decreased to a designed value through the surface-catalyzed chemical reduction of the gold ion on the predefined hole surfaces, by simple dipping of the hole array device into the aqueous solution of gold chloride and hydroxylamine. The final hole size was controlled by adjusting reaction time, and the optimal experimental condition was obtained by doing a series of characterization experiments. The characterization of size-controlled hole array was systematically examined on the image results of optical microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM), atomic-force microscopy(AFM), and total internal reflection microscopy.

이온성 액체 추진제인 HAN은 무독성의 높은 저장성을 갖는 단일 추진제로서 메탄올을 혼합하여 비추력을 향상시켜 하이드라진을 대체할 수 있을 있다. HAN은 하이드록실아민과 질산의 산-염기 반응을 통해 합성하며, 메탄올과 8.2:1의 비율로 혼합한다. HAN의 분해를 위해서 이리듐 촉매를 사용하며, 하나의 오리피스를 갖는 1 N급 추력기를 사용하여 HAN/메탄올 추진제의 성능 평가를 수행하였다. 메탄올 연소로 인해 반응 생성물의 온도가 높기 때문에 디스트리뷰터의 열적 안정성을 향상시키기 위해 세라믹 재료를 적용하였다. 완전한 분해를 위해서는 최소 $400^{\circ}C$의 예열 온도를 필요로 하였다. 높은 $C^*$ 효율을 얻기 위해서는 가압 압력이 높아져야 했으며, 이로 인해 촉매 상단의 분해 성능이 저하되면서 전체 추력기 성능 저하가 유발되었다. 이를 해결하기 위해 미세한 금속 메쉬를 인젝터 후단에 삽입하여 추진제의 분무 특성을 향상시켰으며, 실험 결과 촉매의 성능 저하 현상이 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

The abatement of methane emission from ruminants is an important global issue due to its contribution to greenhouse gas with carbon dioxide. Methane is generated in the rumen by methanogens (archaea) that utilize metabolic hydrogen ($H_2$) to reduce carbon dioxide, and is a significant electron sink in the rumen ecosystem. Therefore, the competition for hydrogen used for methanogenesis with alternative reductions of rumen microbes should be an effective option to reduce rumen methanogenesis. Some methanogens parasitically survive on the surface of ciliate protozoa, so that defaunation or decrease in protozoa number might contribute to abate methanogenesis. The most important issue for mitigation of rumen methanogenesis with manipulators is to secure safety for animals and their products and the environment. In this respect, prophylactic effects of probiotics, prebiotics and miscellaneous compounds to mitigate rumen methanogenesis have been developed instead of antibiotics, ionophores such as monensin, and lasalocid in Japan. Nitrate suppresses rumen methanogenesis by its reducing reaction in the rumen. However, excess intake of nitrate causes intoxication due to nitrite accumulation, which induces methemoglobinemia. The nitrite accumulation is attributed to a relatively higher rate of nitrate reduction to nitrite than nitrite to ammonia via nitroxyl and hydroxylamine. The in vitro and in vivo trials have been conducted to clarify the prophylactic effects of L-cysteine, some strains of lactic acid bacteria and yeast and/or ${\beta}$1-4 galactooligosaccharide on nitrate-nitrite intoxication and methanogenesis. The administration of nitrate with ${\beta}$1-4 galacto-oligosaccharide, Candida kefyr, and Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis were suggested to possibly control rumen methanogenesis and prevent nitrite formation in the rumen. For prebiotics, nisin which is a bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis has been demonstrated to abate rumen methanogenesis in the same manner as monensin. A protein resistant anti-microbe (PRA) has been isolated from Lactobacillus plantarum as a manipulator to mitigate rumen methanogenesis. Recently, hydrogen peroxide was identified as a part of the manipulating effect of PRA on rumen methanogenesis. The suppressing effects of secondary metabolites from plants such as saponin and tannin on rumen methanogenesis have been examined. Especially, yucca schidigera extract, sarsaponin (steroidal glycosides), can suppress rumen methanogenesis thereby improving protein utilization efficiency. The cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), or cashew shell oil, which is a natural resin found in the honeycomb structure of the cashew nutshell has been found to mitigate rumen methanogenesis. In an attempt to seek manipulators in the section on methane belching from ruminants, the arrangement of an inventory of mitigation technologies available for the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) in the Kyoto mechanism has been advancing to target ruminant livestock in Asian and Pacific regions.
