Erythritol은 저 칼로리 건강 감미 물질로서 우리는 이미 자연계로부터 폭넓은 탐색을 통하여 Penicillium sp. KJ8l을 분리, 동정하였다. 본 연구에서는 Penicillium sp. KJ8l의 erythritol 생산을 위한 최적 배양 조건을 검토하였다. 이 균주는 기질로서 glucose, sucrose, fructose, mannose, lactose, maltose 그리고 galactose를 이용하여 erythritol을 생산할수 있었으나 mannitol, arabinose, sorbitol 그리고 xylose를 이용하여서는 erythritol을 생산할 수 없었다. 또한 sucrose를 기질로 사용하였을 때 가장 높은 erythritol 생산성을 보였다. Penicillium sp. KJ8l은 배지의 sucrose 농도가 60%까지 erythritol을 생산할 수 있었으나, 30% sucrose농도에서 erythritol 생산성이 가장 좋았다. 또한 배지내 yeast extract의 농도가 0.5%일 때 erythritol 생산성 이 가장 좋았다. 본 균주는 30% sucrose와 0.5% yeast extract 배지에 0.5% ammonium sulfate를 첨가해 주었을 때 erythritol의 생산성이 향상되었다. Penicillium sp. KJ8l은 5ι jar. fermentor에서 30% sucrose, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.5% ($(NH_{4})_{2}SO_{4}$, 0.1% $KH_{2}PO_{4}$, 0.01% $MgCl_{2}$ 조성의 배지에서 1 vvm으로 산소를 공급해 주면서 200 rpm으로$37^{\circ}C$에서 11 일간 배양하였을 때 최고의 erythritol 생산을 보였다. 이 때 erythritol 생산 수율은 28.2g/l이었다.

본 연구는 통성 혐기성 미생물인 K. pneumoniae DSM4799을 이용하여 순수 글리세롤과 국내 바이오디젤 생산공정에서 발생된 폐글리세롤로부터 1,3-PD을 생산하기 위한 연구로서, 혐기 및 호기 조건, 배양온도, 글리세롤 농도, pH에 따른 1,3-PD 생산성 비교를 통해 최적 배양조건을 찾고자 하였다. K. pneumoniae DSM4799를 혐기조건과 호기/혐기 2단계 배양을 한 결과, 혐기조건에서 더 효율적인 1,3-PD 생산이 이루어졌다. 배양 온도를 $26{\sim}37^{\circ}C$로 변화시키면서 배양한 결과, $30{\sim}33^{\circ}C$에서 높은 1,3-PD 생산성을 나타내었고, 글리세롤 농도는 글리세롤의 종류에 상관없이 60 g/L 이상에서 균주의 성장 및 1,3-PD 생산이 저해되는 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 폐글리세롤 사용시 순수 글리세롤에 비해 초기 1,3-PD 생산은 감소하였으나, 48시간 후에는 오히려 더 높은 농도의 1,3-PD를 생산하였다. 유가식 배양으로 글리세롤 농도를 40 g/L 이하로 조절하면서 pH 조절유무에 따른 1,3-PD 및 부산물의 변화를 살펴본 결과, pH를 7.0으로 유지시켰을 때 pH 조절을 하지 않은 경우보다 25% 향상된 1,3-PD 수율을 나타내었다(0.56 g/g vs. 0.45 g/g). 본 연구를 통해 K. pneumoniae DSM4799를 이용하여 1,3-PD 생산시 혐기조건, 온도 $30^{\circ}C$, 순수 또는 폐글리세롤 40 g/L 이하, pH 조절 등의 배양조건이 적합함을 알 수 있었으며, 최적화된 배양조건을 통해 보다 가격경쟁력이 있는 생물학적 1,3-PD 생산이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The research described here was undertaken with the aim of monitoring, optimizing and ultimately controlling the production of heterofermentative microbes used as starters in the salami industry. The use of starter cultures in the fermented meats industry is a well-established technique used to shorten and standardize the ripening process, and to improve and control the organoleptic quality of the final product. Starter cultures are obtained by the submerged cultivation of suitable microorganisms in stirred, and sometimes aerated, fermenters where monitoring of key physiological parameters such as the concentration of biomass, substrates and metabolites suffers from the general lack of real-time measurement techniques applicable to aseptic processes. In this respect, the results of the present work are relevant to all submerged fermentation processes. Previous work on the application of on-line NIR spectroscopy to the lactic acid fermentation (Dosi et al. - Monreal NIR1995) had successfully used a system based on a measuring cell included in a circulation loop external to the fermenter. The fluid handling and sterility problems inherent in an external circulation system prompted us to explore the use of an in-line system where the NIR probe is immersed in the culture and is thus exposed to the hydrodynamic conditions of the stirred and aerated fluid. Aeration was expected to be a potential source of problems in view of the possible interference of air bubbles with the measurement device. The experimental set-up was based on an in-situ sterilizable NIR probe connected to the instrument by means of an optical fiber bundle. Preliminary work was carried out to identify and control potential interferences with the measurement, in particular the varying hydrodynamic conditions prevailing at the probe tip. We were successful in defining the operating conditions of the fermenter and the geometrical parameters of the probe (flow path, positioning, etc.) were the NIR readings were reliable and reproducible. The system thus defined was then used to construct and validate calibration curves for tile concentration of biomass, carbon source and major metabolites of two different microorganisms used as salami starters. Real-time measurement of such parameters coupled with the direct interfacing of the NIR instrument with the PC-based measurement and control system of the fermenter enabled the development of automated strategies for the interactive optimization of the starter production process.

The purpose of this study was to optimize the solid state cultivation of Monascus ruber on sterile rice. A single-level-multiple-factor and a single-factor-multiple-level experimental design were employed to determine the optimal medium constituents and to optimize carbon and nitrogen source concentrations for lovastatin production. Simultaneous quantitative analyses of the ${\beta}$-hydroxyacid form and ${\beta}$-hydroxylactone for of lovastatin were performed by the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with a UV photodiode-array (PDA) detector. The total lovastatin yield ($4{\sim}6\;mg/g$, average of five repeats) was achieved by adding soybean powder, glycerol, sodium nitrate, and acetic acid at optimized levels after 14 days of fermentation. The maximal yield of lovastatin under the optimal composition of the medium increased by almost 2 times the yield observed prior to optimization. The experimental results also indicated that the ${\beta}$-hydroxylactone form of lovastatin (LFL) and the ${\beta}$-hydroxyacid form of lovastatin (AFL) simultaneously existed in solid state cultures of Monascus ruber. while the latter was the dominant form in the middle-late stage of continued fermentation. These results indicate that optimized culture conditions can be used for industrial production of lovastatin to obtain high yields.

This report describes the use of a transtubular bioreactor to study the relative effects of diffusion versus perfusion of medium on antibody production by a hybridoma cell line. The study was performed with a high-density cell culture maintained in a serum-free, low-protein medium for 77 days. It was determined that the reactor possessed a macro-mixing pattern residence time distribution similar to a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), However, due to the arrangement of the medium lines in the reactor, the flow patterns for nutrient distribution consist of largely independent medium path lengths ranging from short to long. When operated with cyclic, reversing, transtubular medium flow, some regions of the reactor (with short residence times) are more accessible to medium than others (with long residence times). From this standpoint, the reactor can be divided into three regions: a captive volume, which consists of medium primarily delivered via diffusion; a lapped volume, which provides nutrients through unilateral convection; and a swept volume, which operates through bilateral convection. The relative sizes of these three volumes were modified experimentally by changing the period over which the direction of medium flow was reversed from 15 min (larger captive volume) to 9 h (larger swept volume). The results suggest that antibody concentration increases as the size of the diffusion-limited (captive) volume is increased to a maximum at around 30 min with a sharp decrease thereafter. As reflected by changes in measured consumption of glucose and production of lactate, no significant difference in cellular metabolism occurred as the reactor was moved between these different states. These results indicate that the mode of operation of the transtubular bioreactor may influence antibody productivity under serum-free, low-protein conditions with minimal effects on cellular metabolism.

The formation of insoluble aggregation of the recombinant kringle fragment of human apolipoprotein(a), rhLK8, in endoplasmic reticulum was identified as the rate-limiting step in the rhLK8 secretion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To analyze the protein secretion pathway, some of yeast genes closely related to protein secretion was rationally selected and their oligomer DNA were arrayed on the chip. The expression profiling of these genes during the induction of rhLK8 in fermentor fed-batch cultures revealed that several foldases including pdi1 gene were up-regulated in the early induction phase, whereas protein transport-related genes were up-regulated in the late induction phase. The coexpression of pdi1 gene increased rhLK8-folding capacity. Hence, the secretion efficiency of rhLK8 in the strain overexpressing pdi1 gene increased by 2-fold comparing in its parental strain. The oligomer DNA chip arrayed with minimum number of the genes selected in this study could be generally applicable to the monitoring system for the heterologous protein secretion and expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. With the optimization of fed-batch culture conditions and the alteration of genetic background of host, we obtained extracellular rhLK8 at higher yields than with Pichia pastoris systems, which was a 25-fold increased secretion level of rhLK8 compared to the secretion level at the initiation of this study.

A high ${\beta}$-glucosidase (BGL)-producing strain, Stereum hirsutum, was identified and isolated and showed a maximum BGL activity (10.4 U/ml) when cultured with Avicel and tryptone as the carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. In comparison with other BGLs, BGL obtained from S. hirsutum showed a higher level of activity to cellobiose ($V_{max}$ = 172 U/mg, and $k_{cat}$ = 281/s). Under the optimum conditions (600 rpm, $30^{\circ}C$, and pH 6.0), the maximum BGL activity of 10.4 U/ml with the overall productivity of 74.5 U/l/h was observed. BGL production was scaled up from a laboratory scale (7-L fermenter) to a pilot scale (70-L fermenter). When S. hirsutum was cultured in fed-batch culture with rice straw as the carbon source in a 70-L fermenter, a comparable productivity of 78.6 U/l/h was obtained. Furthermore, S. hirsutum showed high levels of activity of other lignocellulases (cellobiohydrolase, endoglucanase, xylanase, and laccase) that are involved in the saccharification of biomasses. Application of S. hirsutum lignocellulases in the hydrolysis of Pinus densiflora and Catalpa ovata showed saccharification yields of 49.7% and 43.0%, respectively, which were higher than the yield obtained using commercial enzymes.
