폐섬유자원의 발효공학적 이용에 관한 연구 (제7보) 억새풀을 기쇄로 한 섬유소 자화세균의 배양

Studies on the Fermentative Utilization of Cellulosic Wastes (Part 7) Culture of Cellulolytic Bacteria from Miscanthus

억새풀을 알칼리로 전처리한 다음 직접섬유소를 자화할 수 있는 세균을 배양하여 SCP생산의 최적조반을 검토하고 및 가지 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다. 1) 알칼리성 처열제로써 NaOH가 가장 우수하였으며 87.4% lignin을 제거하였고 이것을 기질로하여 균체를 배양하였을 때 수율이 높았다. 2) NaOH의 농도별로 그 효과를 검토하였을 때 4%의 농도가 가장 적당하였다. 3) 알칼리 처리후 중화시 중화제로서는 H$_3$PO$_4$가 균기수율에 가장 좋았다. 4) 경시적 배양시 균기수율은 60시간에서 가장 좋았고 배양액 1ml당 9.23mg의 건조체를 얻었으며 75.2%의 소화율을 나타내었다.

Various kinds of native herbage grasses like-Miscanthus sinensis, Arundinella hirta, Cymbopogen geirngii, Themeda japonica etc. are widely distributed in every Korean mountain. So we investigated the availability of native grass, Miscanthus sinensis as a substrate for the production of S. C. P. The results were obtained as follows. 1) At the alkali treatment, NaOH was the most effective with the exclusion of lignin, and pretreated Miscanthus with NaOH appeared to be a good substrate for the microbial growth. 2) When Miscanthus was treated with one to 10％ NaOH, the microbial growth increased in proportion to the increased alkali concentration. Beyond 4％ NaOH, a slight increase was observed. 3) Phosphoric acid, as a neutralizer, was the most effective in cell production after alkali treatment. 4) On the effect of incubation time, the productivity was best found at 60 hours, and the cell weight was 9.23 mg per 1 ml, and the microbial digestibility of substrate was 75.2％.
