다환방향족 탄화수소는 주요한 독성환경오염물질풍의 하나이며 해양퇴적물에 축적이 된다. 다환방향족 탄화수소가 가지고 있는 위해성으로 인해 해양퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소 제거는 많은 관심사가 되어오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다환방향족 탄화수소로 오염된 해양퇴적물의 생물정화를 위해 bioslurry reactor를 사용하기 위한 전단계로 ex situ bioremediation을 위한 최적 조건을 찾기 위해 멸균 유무의 퇴적물에서 균주접종과 혼합 cyclodextrin (M-CD)공급의 효과를 알아보았다. 비멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 분해균주의 접종여부에 상관없이 M-CD가 첨가된 실험구의 전자전달계활성이 증가되었고 멸균상태의 퇴적물에서는 분해균주가 접종되고 M-CD가 첨가된 실험구의 전자전달계활성이 증가되었다. 멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 M-CD와 함께 단일 균주가 접종되었을 때 퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소의 분해율이 9-20%로 나타났으며 동일한 조건에서 혼합균주가 접종되었을 때는 24-37%로 나타났다. 비멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 동일한 조건으로 실험하였을 때는 유의한 분해가 일어나지 않았으며 군집분석 결과 접종 균주도 감소하였다. 또한 M-CD 첨가 없이는 2일후 접종균주를 찾아볼 수 없었다. 결론적으로 퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소 제거를 위해 퇴적물내의 토착미생물과 포식자가 제거된 상태에서 적절한 탄소원과 함께 균주를 접종하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

BACKGROUND: The fungicide of benomyl, a benzimidazole group, has been commonly used for pesticides against fungal diseases in the world. However, benomyl is rapidly hydrolyzed in the environment after using to control plant diseases and has adverse effects by generating carbendazim, which is toxic to plants, humans, and the environment. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, the decomposition effect of carbendazim, a degradation product of benomyl was conducted in pot and field after making a prototype of benomyl-degrading microbial agent (BDMA). We found that the carbendazim-degrading microbial agent (CDMA) (10⁵, 10⁶, and 10⁷ cfu/g soil) decomposed carbendazim by 50% or more in all the treatments, compared to the untreated control in the pot tests after four weeks. The effect of 100% decomposition of carbendazim was observed at 7 days after treatment, when the prototype of BDMA was apllied at 10-folds dilution in the field. The decomposition effect at more than 60% and plant growth promoting effect were observed after 7 days of the treatment, compared with the untreated group in the second field experiment,treated with commercially available concentrations of 500-folds and 1,000-folds. CONCLUSION(S): These results might represent that the BDMA would decompose carbendazim effectively, a decomposition product of the fungicide benomyl, remaining in agricultural area, and it could be utilized practically by using a low dilution rate.

Faba beans (vicia faba) (FB) and lupin seeds (Lupinus Albus) (LS) were dry roasted at three temperatures (110, 130, $150^{\circ}C$) for 15, 30 or 45 min to determine the effects of dry roasting on rumen degradation of crude protein and starch free organic matter ($^{PSF}OM$). Rumen degradation characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ were determined by the nylon bag incubation technique in dairy cows fed 60% hay and 40% concentrate. Measured characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ were undegradable fraction (U), degradable fraction (D), soluble fraction (S), lag time (T0), and the rate of degradation (Kd). Based on the measured characteristics, rumen availability ($RA^{PSF}OM$) and bypass $^{PSF}OM$ ($B^{PSF}OM$) were calculated. Dry roasting did not have a greater impact on rumen degradation characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ (p>0.05). S varied from 32.1 (raw) to 30.0, 27.8, 30.8% (LS) and 15.4 (raw) to 14.4, 20.8, 20.9% (FB); D varied from 65.4 (raw) to 66.3, 66.9, 55.9% (LS) and 54.9 (raw) to 55.0, 51.0, 64.7% (FB); U varied from 2.6 (raw) to 7.3, 7.0, 7.7% (LS) and 29.7 (raw) to 30.6, 28.2, 14.4% (FB); Kd varied from 6.0 (raw) to 7.3, 7.0, 7.7% (LS) and 22.4 (raw) to 24.4, 21.1, 7.9% (FB); $B^{PSF}OM$ varied from 35.5 (raw) to 33.8, 36.6, 38.2% (LS) and 41.3 (raw) to 41.5, 39.7, 47.6% (FB) at 110, 130 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore dry roasting did not significantly affect $RA^{PSF}OM$, which were 353.7, 367.9, 349.6, 336.9 (g/kg DM) (LS) and 12.82, 127.0, 133.7, 117.1 (g/kg DM) (FB) at 110, 130 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. These results alone with our previously published reports indicate dry roasting had the differently affected pattern of rumen degradation characteristics of various components in LS and FB. It strongly increased bypass crude protein (BCP) and moderately increased starch (BST) with increasing temperature and time but least affected $^{PSF}OM$. Such desirable degradation patterns in dry roasted LS and FB might be beneficial to the high yielding cows which could use more dry roasted $^{PSF}OM$ as an energy source for microbial protein synthesized in the rumen and absorb more amino acids and glucose in the small intestine.

본 연구에서는 난분해성 물질인 기상의 TCE를 효과적으로 처리하기 위하여 CSTR과 TBR을 연결한 2단계 생물막 반응기를 제작ㆍ운전하였다. TBR에는 TCE 분해능이 탁월한 메탄자화균인 Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b를 활성탄에 고정화시켰고, 기상의 TCE를 유입부에 연속적으로 공급하여 분해시켰다. 개발된 반응기 시스템의 효율을 조사하기 위해 다양한 운전조건에서 TCE 분해속도, TCE 전화율 및 cMMO 활성변화 등을 조사하였다. 여러 가지의 유입부 TCE 농도에서 운전한 결과 80 $\mu$mol/L의 고농도까지 처리가 가능함을 알 수 있었고, TCE를 포함한 기체의 유속을 변화시켰을 때 유속이 증가함에 따라 낮은 유속(50~200 mL/min)에서는 직선적으로 TCE를 분해속도 및 전화율이 증가하다가 높은 유속(200~600 mL/min)에서는 일정하게 유지되었다. TBR의 온도를 달리하였을 때, 2$0^{\circ}C$의 낮은 온도에서 3$0^{\circ}C$의 높은 온도보다 TCE 전화율 및 분해속도가 증가되어 TBR에서의 TCE 분해반응이 물질전달 저해를 받음을 알 수 있었다. CSTR에서의 희석속도가 낮으면 TCE 분해속도와 전화율의 감소 및 sMMO 활성 저하 현상이 일어남을 관측할 수 있었고, TBR에서 TCE 분해 과정에서 불활성화된 sMMO 및 세포 활성을 효과적으로 재활성화시키기 위해서는 CSTR의 희석속도를 높이 유지해야함을 알 수 있었다. 약 270일 이상의 운전기간 동안 운전조건을 다양하게 변경시켜도 매우 안정되게 시스템이 유지됨을 알 수 있었고, 최고분해속도는 525 mg TCE/Lㆍday 정도로 높아 개발된 2단계 CSTR/TBR 시스템의 우수성을 알 수 있었다.

On a urea-molasses-straw (3:15:82; UMS) based diet effect of graded levels of cottonseed cake (CSC) supplementation on the performance of native (Bos indicus) bulls has been studied for 167 days. Eighteen growing bulls of $129{\pm}13.4kg$ weight and about 14 months old were randomly allocated to three dietary treatments designed in a completely randomized design, having six animals in each treatment. Three dietary treatments were 0, 0.5 and 1.0 kg CSC per head/d. In addition, each animal also received ad lib. UMS, 4 kg Napier (Pennisetum purpureum) grass, 500 g of each of rice and wheat bran and 60 g mineral mix daily. For unit increase in CSC, total DM intake was increased by $1g/kg\;W^{0.75}/d$ but the straw DM intake decreased by $0.54g/kg\;W^{0.75}/d$. Whole gut digestibility of DM and OM was not effected but N and ADF digestibility increased with incremental increase in dietary CSC. For unit (1kg) increase in dietary CSC intake N and ADF digestibility increased by 10 (${\pm}1.155$) and 3 (${\pm}1.732$) unit respectively. Microbial N yield for the 0, 0.5 and 1.0 kg CSC were 5.63, 5.28 and 5.16 g/kg OM apparently fermented in the rumen respectively. For each gram increase in CSC, N intake and N balance increased by 0.626 (${\pm}0.015$) and 0.625 (${\pm}0.0814$) mg/kg $W^{0.75}/d$. High apparent N balance was contrasted with low live weight gain, e.g., for 1 kg increase in CSC supplementation, live weight gain increased by only 0.077 (${\pm}0.00288$) kg/d ($r^{2}=0.99$; p<0.01). The conversion efficiency was 12.98 kg CSC per kg of live weight gain. It was concluded that unless the protein is being protected from the rumen degradation, addition of CSC to UMS diet would have little nutritional or economic advantages.

Treatment performance and microbial community structure were investigated in water-soluble cutting oil treatment process using biological activated carbon. DOC removal in BACI column at $15^{\circ}C$ was higher than at $25^{\circ}C$, but those of BAC3 column after 60days was high at$25^{\circ}C$. Also, quinone content of first-step reactors at $25^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$ was much the same, but those of the third-step reactor at $25^{\circ}C$ was higher than at $15^{\circ}C$. The dominant type of two apparatus was ubquinone (UQ)-l 0 followed by UQ-8. Menaquinones were detected from $25^{\circ}C$ apparatus and effluent. This suggested that DOC removal at $25^{\circ}C$ was advanced degradation by attached microorganisms on the activated carbon surface. The DOC removal in long-term activated carbon apparatus increased with going in BAC3 column. This indicated the influent of POC was a result of DOC removal efficiency decrease. Integrated DOC removal from start point in experiment to break point and quinone content were showed a tendency of increasing with going last-step activated carbon apparatus. Therefore, the biological activated carbon apparatus used by this study was effective treatment process in contaminated groundwater by water-soluble cutting oil.

Biocatalytic degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) in contaminated soil by hemoglobin and hydrogen peroxide is an effective soil remediation method. This study used a laboratory soil reactor experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of a nonspecific biocatalytic reaction with hemoglobin and H₂O₂ for treating TPH-contaminated soil. We also quantified changes in the soil microbial community using real-time PCR analysis during the experimental treatment. The results show that the measured rate constant for the reaction with added hemoglobin was 0.051/day, about 3.5 times higher than the constant for the reaction with only H₂O₂ (0.014/day). After four weeks of treatment, 76% of the initial soil TPH concentration was removed with hemoglobin and hydrogen peroxide treatment. The removal of initial soil TPH concentration was 26% when only hydrogen peroxide was used. The soil microbial community, based on 16S rRNA gene copy number, was higher (7.1 × 10⁶ copy number/g of bacteria, and 7.4 × 10⁵ copy number/g of Archaea, respectively) in the hemoglobin catalyzed treatment. Our results show that TPH treatment in contaminated soil using hemoglobin catalyzed oxidation led to the enhanced removal effectiveness and was non-toxic to the native soil microbial community in the initial soil.

Bioremediation technologies were applied to experimental microcosms, simulating an oil spill in a lower intertidal area. Three treatments (oil only, oil plus nutrients, and oil plus nutrients and microbial inocula) were applied, and each microcosm was repeatedly filled and eluted with seawater every 12 h to simulate tidal cycles. To minimize washing-out of the inoculum by the tidal cycles, microbial cells were primarily immobilized on diatomaceous earth before they were applied to the oiled sand. Oil degradation was monitored by gravimetric measurements, thin layer chromatography/flame ionization detector (TLC/FID) analysis, and gas chromatography (GC) analysis, and the loss of oil content was normalized to sand mass or nor-hopane. When the data were normalized to sand mass, no consistent differences were detected between nutrient-amended and nutrient/inoculum-amended microcosms, although both differed from the oil-only microcosm in respect of oil removal rate by a factor of 4 to 14. However, the data relative to nor-hopane showed a significant treatment difference between the nutrient-amended and nutrient/inoculum-treated microcosms, especially in the early phase of the treatment. The accelerating effect of inoculum treatment has hardly been reported in studies of oil bioremediation in the Tower intertidal area. The inoculum immobilized on diatomaceous earth seemed to be a very effective formulation for retaining microbial cells in association with the sand. Results of this study also suggest that interpretation of the effectiveness of bioremediation could be dependent on the selection of monitoring methods, and consequently the application of various analytical methods in combination could be a solution to overcome the limitations of oil bioremediation monitoring.

본 연구는 미생물이 오염물 분해를 위해 황산염이 필요한 동전기 생물학적복원에서 황산염원의 종류가 제거효율에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 대표오염물과 적용 미생물은 각각 phenanthrene과 Sphingomonas sp. 3Y였다. Magnesium sulfate를 이용했을 때 Mg이온은 음극에서 전기적으로 생성되는 수산화이온과 결합하여 전해질 pH를 크게 감소시키고 미생물활성을 저해하는 현상이 관찰되었다. 따라서 ammonium sulfate와 disodium sulfate를 이용했을 때 전해질 및 토양 pH가 중성영역으로 유지되었으며 미생물 활성도 높게 유지되었다. 하지만 전자의 경우 ammonium이 미생물의 오염물 분해를 지연시켜 제거효율이 오히려 magnesium sulfate의 21.8%보다 12.0%로 더 낮게 나타났으며, 반면 후자의 경우 27.2%로 제거효율이 증가된 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 제거효율의 차이는 장기간의 처리에서는 더욱 두드러질 것으로 예상된다.

Soil column experiments were evaluated effects of silver nanoparticles (i.e., 0, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/L) on the microbial viability which is strongly associated with the degradation of organic matter, pharmaceutically active compounds(PhACs) and biological oxidation of nitrogenous compounds during river bank filtration. The addition of silver nanoparticles resulted in almost no change in the aqueous matrix. However, the intact cell concentration decreased with addition of silver nanoparticles from 2.5 to 10 mg/L, which accounted for 76% to 82% reduction compared to that of control (silver nanoparticles free surface water). The decrease in adenosine triphosphate was more pronounced; thus, the number and active cells in aqueous phase were concurrently decreased with added silver nanoparticles. Based on the florescence excitation-emission matrix and liquid chromatograph - organic carbon detection analyses, it shows that the removal of protein-like substances was relatively higher than that of humic-like substances, and polysaccharide was substantially reduced. But the extent of those substances removed during soil passage was decreased with the increasing concentration of silver nanoparticles. The attenuation of ionic PhACs ranged from 55% to 80%, depending on the concentration of silver nanoparticles. The attenuation of neutral PhACs ranged between 72% and 77%, which was relatively lower than that observed for the ionic PhACs. The microbial viability was affected by silver nanoparticles, which also resulted in inhibition of nitrifiers.
