생약제 농축액의 안정성 확보하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 생약제 농축액에서 수분 활성도 변화에 따른 미생물 성장 변화 및 일부 이화학적 특성 변화를 조사하였다. 수분 활성도를 각각 0.86, 0.89, 0.69로 조정한 생약제 농축액을 $40^{\circ}C$에서 180일 동안 저장한 후 세균수의 생균수를 측정한 결과 수분활성도 0.86(수분 활성도 63.85%) 시료의 경우 초기 생균수가 18/g에서 90일 저장시 80/g으로 180일 저장시 190/g으로 증가하였다. 수분활성도 0.80(수분함량 43.04%) 경우에는 초기생균수가 24/g에서 90일 저장시 83/g으로, 180일 저장시 170/g으로 증가하였다. 그러나 수분활성도 0.69(수분함량 33.05%) 경우에는 초기 생균수가 16/g에서 90일 및 180일 저장시 각각 2-/g, 25/g으로 큰 균수가 증가를 나타내지 않았다. 한편 수분 활성도에 따른 병원성 미생물의 성장은 수분활성도가 낮을수록 저해되었으며 C. albicans, A. niger의 경우 $28^{\circ}C$에서 30일 저장 후 초기 생균수가 150/g, 140/g에서 각각 30/g, 20/g으로 크게 감소하였고, E. coli, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa의 경우에도 수분활성도 0.69 시료에서는 $37^{\circ}C$에서 30일 저장 후 생균수가 0로 나타나서 균은 완전히 사멸되었다. 수분활성도 0.86, 0.80, 0.69 시료에서 pH의 변화는 180일 저장시의 pH에서 초기 pH를 뺀 pH의 감소 폭이 각각 0.84, 0.72, 0.31로 나타나서 수분활성도가 낮을수록 pH의 감소폭이 적은 경향이었다. 생약제 농축액에 포함된 인삼 중의 지표성분인 사포닌은 180일 저장한 시료에서 측정한 사포닌함량에서 저장 초기 시료의 함량을 뺀 사포닌 함량의 감소폭은 0.12~0.30%로 나타나서 비교적 작은 편이었다. 또한 생약제 농축액에 감미료, 산미료 등의 첨가물을 첨가하여 $40^{\circ}C$에서 60일 및 180일 동안 저장한 후 TLC로 사포닌을 조사한 결과 모든 사포닌이 확인되어 이러한 조건에서 사포닌은 안정한 것으로 생각된다.

If rumen bacteria can be manipulated to utilize nutrients (i.e., ammonia and plant cell wall carbohydrates) more completely and efficiently, the need for protein supplementation can be reduced or eliminated and the digestion of fiber in forage or agricultural residue-based diets could be enhanced. However, these approaches require a complete and accurate description of the rumen community, as well as methods for the rapid and accurate detection of microbial density, diversity, phylogeny, and gene expression. Molecular ecology techniques based on small subunit (SSU) rRNA sequences, nucleic acid probes and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can potentially provide a complete description of the microbial ecology of the rumen of ruminant animals. The development of these molecular tools will result in greater insights into community structure and activity of gut microbial ecosystems in relation to functional interactions between different bacteria, spatial and temporal relationships between different microorganisms and between microorganisms and reed panicles. Molecular approaches based on SSU rRNA serve to evaluate the presence of specific sequences in the community and provide a link between knowledge obtained from pure cultures and the microbial populations they represent in the rumen. The successful development and application of these methods promises to provide opportunities to link distribution and identity of gastrointestinal microbes in their natural environment with their genetic potential and in situ activities. The use of approaches for assessing pupulation dynamics as well as for assessing community functionality will result in an increased understanding and a complete description of the gastrointestinal communities of production animals fed under different dietary regimes, and lead to new strategies for improving animal growth.

The potential polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)-producing bacteria, Bacillus megaterium PP-10, was successfully isolated and studied its feasibility for utilization of pineapple peel waste (PPW) as a cheap carbon substrate. The PPW was pretreated with 1% (v/v) H₂SO₄ under steam sterilization and about 26.4 g/l of total reducing sugar (TRS) in pineapple peel hydrolysate (PPH) was generated and main fermentable sugars were glucose and fructose. A maximum cell growth and PHA concentration of 3.63 ± 0.07 g/l and 1.98 ± 0.09 g/l (about 54.58 ± 2.39%DCW) were received in only 12 h when grown in PPH. Interestingly, PHA productivity and biomass yield (Y_x/s) in PPH was about 4 times and 1.5 times higher than in glucose. To achieve the highest DCW and PHA production, the optimal culture conditions e.g. carbon to nitrogen ratios of 40 mole/mole, incubation temperature at 35℃ and shaking speed of 200 rpm were performed and a maximum DCW up to 4.24 ± 0.04 g/l and PHA concentration of 2.68 ± 0.02 g/l (61% DCW) were obtained. The produced PHA was further examined its monomer composition and found to contain only 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB). This finding corresponded with the presence of class IV PHA synthase gene. Finally, certain thermal properties of the produced PHA i.e. the melting temperature (T_m) and the glass transition temperature (T_g) were about 176℃ and -4℃, respectively whereas the M_w was about 1.07 KDa ; therefore, the newly isolated B. megaterium PP-10 is a promising bacterial candidate for the efficient conversion of low-cost PPH to PHA.

The use of low-cost substrates represents one key issue to make single cell oil production sustainable. Among low-input crops, Arundo donax L. is a perennial herbaceous rhizomatous grass containing both C5 and C6 carbohydrates. The scope of the present work was to investigate and optimize the production of lipids by the oleaginous yeast Cutaneotrichosporon curvatus from undetoxified lignocellulosic hydrolysates of steam-pretreated A. donax. The growth of C. curvatus was first optimized in synthetic media, similar in terms of sugar concentration to hydrolysates, by applying the response surface methodology (RSM) analysis. Then the bioconversion of undetoxified hydrolysates was investigated. A fed-batch process for the fermentation of A. donax hydrolysates was finally implemented in a 2-L bioreactor. Under optimized conditions, the total lipid content was 64% of the dry cell weight and the lipid yield was 63% of the theoretical. The fatty acid profile of C. curvatus triglycerides contained 27% palmitic acid, 33% oleic acid and 32% linoleic acid. These results proved the potential of lipid production from A. donax, which is particularly important for their consideration as substitutes for vegetable oils in many applications such as biodiesel or bioplastics.

The objectives of this investigation were to produce artificially an antitumor constituent by submerged culture of the mycelium of Coriolus versicolor (Fr.) Quel., to characterize the influence of various modifications of the nutrient and culture conditions with respect to the pro­duction, to determine chemical composition of the antitumor constituent, and to examine effects of the constituent on the immune response of mice. Submerged agitation of the mycelium in flasks containing a nutrient solution showed its adequate growth. Especially the mycelial growth in the medium containing glucose and yeast extract was abundant. The addition of cotton seed flour or ginseng waste to the medium increased the yield of mycelial growth and the production of the antitumor constituent. The replacement of glucose with starch also yielded the adequate growth. The antitumor constituent extracted from the mycelium and isolated from the culture filtrate was a protein-bound polysaccharide. The analyses of this constituent by GLC and amino acid autoanalysis showed that it contained four monosaccharides and fifteen amino acids. The protein-free polysaccharide of the constituent was also found to exert greater antitumor activity against sarcoma-180 in mice than the entire constituent. The antitumor constituent was found to potentiate the immune response of mice against sheep red blood cell. The protein-bound polysaccharide exerted more favorable influence on the immunity than the protein-free moiety.

본 연구에서는 A.cycloclast ATCC 21921 균주를 사용하여 $\gamma$-butyrobetaine으로부터 L-carnitine을 생산하는 최적 조건에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 배양액 내에 $\gamma$-butyrobetaine 만을 포함하였을때는 최대 L-carnitine 생산량이 29g/L이었고 전환수율도 30.9 mol%로 매우 낮았다. L-carmtine 생산에 미치는 탄소원의 영향을 관찰한 결과 glycerol을 첨가할 경우 L-carnitine 생산량이 4.6g/L 그리고 전환수율이 88.2 mol%로 $\gamma$-butyrobetaineaks을 포함하였을 때보다 월등히 향상되었다. Betaine, chohne와 같은 quaternary ammonium compounds 들이 L-carnitine 생산에 미치는 영향을 조사해본 결과, 이들에 의하여 L-carntine 생산 속도가 빨라지고 전환수율도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 기질인 $\gamma$-butyrobetaine 농도 3% 이상에서 세포 생장은 저해되고 L-carnitine 생산은 기질 농도 2-3%에서 가장 우수함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 구한 최적 생산 조건, 다시 말해서 glycerol과 choline을 배양액에 포함하고 기질의 농도를 2%^로 하여 플라스크에서 회분식 배양을 하였을 때, 배양 4일 만에 최대 7.2g/L의 L-carrutine을 생산할 수 있었고 이때 $\gamma$-butyrobetaine으로부터 L-carnitine에로의 전환수율은 98.7mol%이었다.
