커들란과 활성탄의 조성을 몇 가지로 나누어서 실험한 결과 커들란 30 g/L과 활성탄 6 g/L의 비로 제조하여 Autoclave ($121^{\circ}C$, 1 atm, 15 min)에서 가열한 담체의 물성이 다공성 특성 및 세포의 고정화 측면에서 우수함을 보였다. 충전층 반응기를 설치하여 담체를 고정시킨 후 미생물 부착능력을 실험한 결과, 철 산화 세균에 의하여 시간이 증가할수록 철 산화 속도가 빨라지고, 이 과정을 주사전자현미경으로 촬영한 결과 시간이 증가할수록 담체에 부착되는 미생물의 농도가 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 본 실험에서 사용된 담체는 환경 친화적인 고분자로 2차적으로 발생할 수 있는 환경문제를 해결 할 수 있으며 기존의 담체에 비교하여 비표면적이 넓고, 인체에 해가 없는 생물고분자 담체이므로 식품용도의 흡착제 등으로도 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

난초를 키우는 화분에 보습용으로 사용되는 다공성 화산석을 2-3 mm크기로 파쇄한 후 $600^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 태워서 가연성 물질 을 제거하고 IN의 염산용액으로$60-70^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 이물질을 녹여댄 후 세척할 경우 효모 고정화에 적당한 담체를 얻을 수 있었다 이 때 염산 용액 대신 NaOH 용액을 세척용액으로 사용 할 수 있으나 담체 구성성분의 용출이 있을 수 있으므로 용액 농도, 처리온도 및 시간에 주의하여야 한다 이렇게 제조된 담체 는 기공의 크기가 $15-80\mu\textrm{m}$이고 충전 밀도는 0.4-0.6 g/mL 였으며 $SiO_2$가 주성분이었고, $Al_2O_3$가 소량함유되어 있었으며, CaO, MgO가 미량 함유되어 있었다. 이 담제의 구조와 효모 고 정화 능력을 국내외 기업에서 제조한 실리카 및 알루미나 재질 의 담체의 경우와 비교한 결과 고상포말법으로 제조한 실리가 담체의 구조 및 고정화능력($5{\times108}$ cells/mL bed)과 비슷한 결 과를 보여 효모 고정화용 담체로 손색이 없었다.. Cordierite 담체 와 알루미나 담체는 고정화능이 실리카 담체의 50% 이하로 낮 았는데 이는 기공의 표면이 매끄럽지 못했기 때문으로 효모가 쉽게 흡착하기 위해서는 가능한 한 매끄러운 표면이 바람직하다 는 사실을 알 수 있었다.

Plant cell immobilization can protect plant cells from shear forces and increase the stability of gene. An additional advantage of immobilization is the easiness for performing continuous culture with cell recycling. Therefore plant cell immobilization can overcome the limitations of plant cell applications. In addition, target protein should be selected from pharmaceutical proteins to get rid of low expression level problem. The enhanced production of human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) was investigated in immobilized Nicotiana tabacum suspension cell cultures. When the cells were immobilized in polyurethane foam, specific production of hGM-CSF was higher than that in alginate bead immobilization. Optimum continuous culture condition was the addition of 60 g/L sucrose in growth media with exchanging media every 6 day. Under the same condition, specific hGM-CSF production was 7 times higher in a 500-mL spinner flask than that in 100-mL Erlenmeyer flasks. Therefore, development of an effective immobilization process would be possible when the advantage of easy cell recycling was used. Consequently, enhanced production of target proteins could be possible in immobilized continuous cultures when the advantages of immobilization were applied.

In this study, we attempted to evaluate a novel use of sericin-fixed silk fiber (SFx) as an immobilization support of enzyme. Sericin was fixed on the silk fiber using glutaraldehyde as a fixation reagent. After 6 hours of fixation, the degree of fixation increases linearly with linear decrease of the amount of bound $\alpha$-chymotrypsin (CT). This suggests that the increase of the degree of fixation is due to the further crosslinking of free aldehyde groups on the surface of sericin-fixed silk fiber (SFx). Even though perfect fixation was not achieved, sericin did not dissolve seriously and could be removed by further washing. The specific activity did not differ significantly after 6 hours of fixation. The activity of immobilized CT on SFx decreased to its half after 6 hours of incubation at 50$^{\circ}C$. However, it retained $78\%$ of initial activity even after 1 hour of treat­ment with $100\%$ ethanol. As a result, the SFx could be used as an immobilization support of enzyme in non-aqueous media at ambient temperature.

형질전환된 담배세포 배양을 이용한 hGM-CSF 생산에 있어 polyurethane foam 내 고정화법을 이용하여 연속배양의 가능성을 확인하였고 spinner flask에서의 배양에 따른 영향을 알아보았다. 16일 동안 3번의 배지교환에도 세포의 활성이 유지되어 hGM-CSF 생산량은 계속적으로 증가하였다. 온도와 교반속도를 동일하게 하였을 때 spinner flask에서의 hGM-CSF 생산량은 17.3 ${\mu}g/L$으로 100-mL flask의 9.8 ${\mu}g/L$보다 증가하였다. 따라서 최적의 배지교환 속도와 양을 결정하여 spinner flask에서 연속배양을 실시할 경우 세포 재사용이라는 경쟁력과 함께 높은 hGM-CSF 생산량이 얻어질 것으로 예상된다.

The behaviour of alginate immobilized and soluble watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris) urease in water miscible organic solvents like, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide (DMF), ethanol, methanol, and propanol is described. The organic solvents exhibited a concentration dependent inhibitory effect on both the immobilized and the soluble urease in the presence of urea. Pretreatment of soluble enzyme preparations with organic solvents in the absence of substrate for 10 min at $30^{\circ}C$ led to rapid loss in the activity, while similar pretreatment of immobilized urease with 50% (v/v) of ethanol, propanol, and acetonitrile was ineffective. Time-dependent inactivation of immobilized urease, both in the presence and in the absence of urea, revealed stability for longer duration of time even at very high concentration of organic solvents. The soluble enzyme, on the other hand, was rapidly inactivated even at fairly lower concentrations. The results suggest that the immobilization of watermelon urease in calcium alginate make it suitable for its application in organic media. The observations are discussed.

The feasibility of laccase production by immobilization of Pleurotus ostreatus 1804 on polyurethane foam (PUF) cubes with respect to media composition was studied in both batch and reactor systems. Enhanced laccase yield was evidenced due to immobilization. A relatively high maximum laccase activity of 312.6 U was observed with immobilized mycelia in shake flasks compared to the maximum laccase activity of free mycelia (272.2 U). It is evident from this study that the culture conditions studied, i.e. biomass level, pH, substrate concentration, yeast extract concentration, $Cu^{2+}$ concentration, and alcohol nature, showed significant influence on the laccase yield. Gel electrophoretic analysis showed the molecular weight of the laccase produced by immobilized P. ostreatus to be 66 kDa. The laccase yield was significantly higher and more rapid in the packed bed reactor than in the shake flask experiments. A maximum laccase yield of 392.9 U was observed within 144 h of the fermentation period with complete glucose depletion.

The electrolytic reduction process and the electrorefining process, which are being developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), are to generate molten waste salts such as LiCI salt and LiCI-KCI eutectic salt, respectively. Our goal in waste salt management is to minimize a total waste generation and fabricate a very low­leaching waste form such as a ceramic waste form. Zeolite has been known to one of the most desirable media to immobilize waste salt, which is water soluble and easily radiolyzed. Zeolite can be also used to the removal of fission products from the spent waste salt. Molten LiCI salt is mixed with zeolite A at $650^{\circ}C$ to form a salt-loaded zeolite, and then thermally treated in above $900^{\circ}C$ to become an immobilized product with crystal phase of $Li_{8}Cl_{2}$-Sodalite. In this work, a crystal phase changes of immobilization medium, zeolite, during immobilization of molten LiCI salt using zeolite A is introduced.

This study was conducted to improve biological degradation efficiency of toluene as a model volatile organic compound (VOC) using yeast Candida tropicalis and to suggest an effective method for bioreactor operation. The yeast strain was immobilized with polyethylene glycol (PEG), alginate, and powdered activated carbon (PAC). The yeast-immobilized polymer media were used as fluidized materials in an airlift bioreactor. Polymer media without PAC were also made and operated in another airlift bioreactor. The two bioreactors showed toluene removal efficiencies ranging 80-96% at loading rates of $10-35 g/m^3-hr$, and the bioreactor containing the polymer media with PAC achieved higher removal efficiency. Protein contents in the liquid phase showed that the bioreactor using the yeast-immobilized polymer media with PAC had a higher rate of microbial growth initially than that without PAC. In addition, the microbial growth rate inside of the polymer media with PAC was five times higher than that without PAC. Consequently, the polymer media containing the yeast strain and PAC could enhance removal efficiencies for VOCs, and the immobilization method improve microbial activity and stability for a long-term operation of biological systems.

최근 biotechnology 발전과 같이하여 미생물 고정화법이 급속히 진보하였다. 도처에 있는 biological midia로부터 products를 추출하기 위해 미생물 고정화법은 많이 적용되고 있지만 아직 하수처리에 적용은 되고 있지 않다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 순환 양식 시스템에 고정화기술의 적용 가능성을 타진하였다. fludized bed reactor에서 bead에 고정화된 질화세균군을 사용하기 위해서는 고정화 bead의 내구성이 높아야함으로 각 고정화법에 따른 강도는 $Ba^{++}-alginate$ bead가 1450g의 breaking force로 가장 높은 내구력을 지니고 있음으로 가장 적합한 bead라고 할 수 있었다. 또한 20 mg/L ammonium ion을 제거 하는데 $Ba^{++}-alginate$ bead는 다른 두 bead보다 훨씬 논은 활성을 나타내었으며, 아울러 고정화 질화세균군이 비고정화 질화세균군보다 높은 질화 효율을 보여 주었다.
