The effect of intracellular Ca2+ level on the hybridoma cell growth and monoclonal antibody(MAb) production was examined. For the manipulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration, the cells were treated with A23187, ryanodine, and thapsigargin at about 1x106 cells/mL. The treated cells were recultivated by using the Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium(MDM) containing 1.49mM CaCl2. The ryanodine-treated cells showed better cell growth, MAb concentration, and specific MAb productivity than others. In comparison with control, the maximum cell concentration, MAb concentration, and specific MAb productivity were increased by 40.6%, 48.1% and 83.3%, respectively. Confocal microscopic images of Fura-2/AM loaded cells indicate that the increase in intracellular Ca2+ level can enhance the MAb productivity by allowing the calcium influx into the endoplasmic reticulumn.

This paper proposes an object-oriented software development guidance and an evaluation index for the productivity related to EJB(Enterprise JavaBeans). EJB is a known successful standard model for LSDO(Large Size Distributed Object). However, there is no comparison research about the performance of EJB 2.0 and 3.0 with same identical platform. Quantitative analysis is supported as a part of LOC(Line Of Code) analysis. There is a limit to develop the updated software with no the specific evaluating index for the productivity of software. This work proposes an specific index for evaluating the productivity of new version EJB on a platform. Base on the result, the specific guidance of the developing software is obtained.

Purpose - This study examines the effects of expatriate transfer on foreign affiliate's labor productivity. Design/methodology - Using Korean-owned foreign affiliate-level data, we estimate the effect of expatriate transfer on foreign affiliate's labor productivity using the system generalized method of moments model. We also consider foreign affiliate- and host country-specific contingencies and test how they are associated with expatriates in enhancing foreign affiliate's labor productivity. Findings - We consider foreign production intensity and cultural distance between the home (i.e., South Korea) and host countries as key contingencies that influence the effect of expatriates on foreign affiliate's labor productivity. We find that expatriates are effective in enhancing the labor productivity of less production-intensive foreign affiliates. This effect is strengthened as expatriates are deployed to countries that share cultural similarities with the home country. Originality/value - Considering that previous studies provide mixed results on the effect of expatriates, our findings suggest that foreign affiliate-specific operational orientation and cultural distance should be considered jointly to understand the true effect of expatriate staffing on foreign affiliate performance.

본 실험에서는 하이브리도마세포 배양 중 아미노산 량의 변화를 조사하여 세포성장, 세포대사 및 항체생산성에 미치는 아미노산의 영향을 조사하였다. 실험결과에 의하면 vR8 하이브리도 마세포 배양 중 세포성장이 급속히 이루어지는 시점과 최대 세포농도에 도달한 시점에서의 glutamine, arginine, leucine 등 다수 아미노산의 고갈이 관찰되었고, 이후 세포활성이 급속히 저하되었다. 이때 glucose 농도, lactate, armmonia 등의 대사산물 농도 및 pH, DO, 교반속도 등은 적절하게 유지되었기 때문에 이들 요소에 의한 세포성장의 저해는 없었다. 따라서 이들 아미노산의 고갈이 세포활성의 저하에 커다란 영향을 주었다고 생각된다. 한편, 고갈된 아미노산을 첨가한 배지(GC-HY-S2)로 배양을 해본 결과 세포농도를 $2.91\times10^7$cell/mL까지 증가시킬 수 있었다. 즉, 변형배지에서는 세포활성의 저하를 가져오는 세포성장구간을 지나 계속적인 세포성장을 보여 27배 정도 더 높은 최대 세포농도를 보였다. 세포농도의 증가로 specific productivity, volumetric productivity도 각각 1.75배, 56배 증가하였다. 최대 세포농도에서의 아미노산 량을 조사한 결과를 보면 충분한 양의 아미노산이 공급되었음을 알 수 있다. 고농도 하이브리도마세포 배양에서의 일부 아미노산의 고갈은 일반적으로 관찰되는 현상이다. 그러므로 세포를 고농도로 배양하기 위해서는 아미노산 분석을 통해 고갈된 아미노산을 첨가해 주어야 하는데, 아미노산의 요구는 세포주마다 다르므로 배지 최적화과정에서 아미노산 분석에 의한 배지의 개선이 필요하다고 생각된다.

Sodium butyrate (NaBu) has been used to enhance protein expression levels in mammalian cell culture. To determine the clonal variability of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells in response to NaBu addition regarding specific antibody productivity $(q_{Ab})$, three rCHO clones were subjected to different concentrations of NaBu. For all three clones, NaBu addition inhibited cell growth and decreased cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, the enhancing effect of NaBu on $q_{Ab}$ varied significantly among the clones. NaBu addition enhanced the antibody production of only one clone. RT-PCR analysis revealed that the changes in $q_{Ab}$ correlated linearly with those of the mRNA transcription level. Thus, it was concluded that the different enhancing effects of NaBu on protein expression in rCHO cell clones resulted from their different mRNA transcription levels.

본 연구는 혼합영양생물인 Scenedesmus acuminatus의 최적배양조건을 찾기 위한 연구로서 최적 공기주입량, 아세테이트 주입량, $CO_2$ 주입에 대해 실험을 진행하였다. 공기주입량은 0.72 vvm에서 최대 비성장속도와 최대바이오매스 생산량을 얻을 수 있었으며, 0.3 M의 아세테이트를 주입하였을 때 최대 비성장속도와 최대바이오매스 생산량을 얻었다. 반연속배양에서는 추가로 $CO_2$ 주입이 배양에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. $CO_2$ 주입 실험에서는 아세테이트로 50% 치환한 후에 최대비성장속도($0.460d^{-1}$)와 최대바이오매스 생산성($0.936gL^{-1}d^{-1}$)을 얻을 수 있었으며 이후 치환이 계속될수록 최대비성장속도와 최대바이오매스 생산성은 지속적으로 감소하였다. 공기주입 실험에서는 JM 배지로 배양할 때 가장 높은 비성장속도($0.381d^{-1}$)와 최대바이오매스 생산성($0.253gL^{-1}d^{-1}$)을 보여주었지만 이후 아세테이트를 함유한 배지로 50% 치환하였을 때 오히려 초기값보다 감소하는 것을 관찰하였다.

We have studied the applicability of the principles and inherent advantages of the two-stage dontinuous uclture technique to an enzyme process for the purpose of improving and optimizing the productivity of 3-ketosteroid-delta-1-dehydrogenase. By using a two-stage continuous culture system, the growth st ageand enzyme produdtion stage are separated. In each stage an optimal set of toperaing conditions was determined, and this was tested for feasibility for the period of 10 days. During this period, at least 70％ of the maximum enzyme productivity could be maintained. The important design parameters studied are: (1) optimal specific growth rate in the first stage which corresponds to the maximal cell productivity, (2) the optimal dilution rate in the second stage which in turn determines the size of second stage fermentor and the mean residence time of cells in the second stage, (3) cell concentration in both stages, add (4) the specific enzyme productivity and enzyme productivity of the second stage. In addition, by using two-stage continuous culture system we have been able to reduce or eliminate the effect of catabolite repression due to high medium concentration and the adverse effect of the solvent used to dissolve the inducer. We have found the balance between the opposing effects of induction and repression in the second stage judging from the observation that the enzyme productivity goes through a maximum.

This study examines how specific technology from Information and Communications Technology (ICT)-which plays a critical role in increasing productivity by promoting a spread of technology across the society though the use of big data, mobile or wearable devices-impacts of the productivity of society and productivity of added values, respectively. The impact of technology was studied from the perspective of efficiency levels of input. In order to provide an analysis, we have categorized ICT into 16 specific technologies and have set the number of companies and number of employees each as an input factor while setting the respective output and the output of added values as an output factor. Afterwards, we have applied data envelopment analysis (DEA) which is a form of nonparametric frontier analysis and measured the productivity and efficiency of added values for each technology. According to the analysis results, there were 2 technologies by the CRS standards, and 3 technologies by the VRS standards that showed relative efficiency levels. We have also presented some efficiency improvement strategies for specific technologies that revealed relative inefficiency and offered a reference set and projection point. In addition, we provide an analysis on scale efficiencies (SE), diminishing returns to scale (DRS), and increasing returns to scale (IRS) of each ICT.

Physiological characteristics such as specific productivity, morphology of Streptomyces cells Immobilized on celite beads, and operational stability at different dilution rates were investigated in continuous immobilized-cell cultures for the production of kasugamycin. At a dilution rate (D) of 0.05 $h^{-1}$, a relatively high specific productivity was attained and the loss of cell-loaded beads was negligible. At D=0.1 $h^{-1}$, a higher specific productivity and cell concentration could be obtained, resulting in a significantly improved volumetric kasugamycin productivity. However, no stable operation could be maintained due to a significant loss of cell-loaded beads from the reactor that was caused by their fluffy morphology developed in the later stage. At D=0.2 $h^{-1}$, the production of kasugamycin and cell growth were observed to be severely inhibited by the high concentration of residual maltose.

In the fed-batch fermentation of penicillin specific uptake rates of carbon source and ammonia nitrogen, and specific production rate of penicillin as the most important process variables were evaluated over the fermentation course and their effects on the productivity studied. As the results, glucose and lactose each as a major carbon source showed the following values, respectively ; the specific uptake rates of 47-93 mg hexose per gm-DCW per he and 37-44 mg hexose per gm-DCW per hr, the specific uptake rates of 4.6-6.8 mg $NH_3-N$ per gm-DCW per hr, and 1.2 mg $NH_3-N$ per gm-DCW per he and the specific production rates of 32-42 arbitrary unit per gm-DCW per hr and 46-50 arbitrary unit per gm-DCW per hr. The productivity of penicillin could be improved by controlling the feed rates of glucose and ammonia nitrogen to meet the uptake rates.
