The acidity of soy curd fermented by lactic acid bacteria is a major factor degrading the sensory properties of soy curd. For preparation of soy curd with low sour taste, lactic acid bacteria were separated from kimchi. The lactic acid bacteria which showed yellow-clear zone around the colonies on BCP plate and formed soy curd with low level of acidity were selected. The selected strain was analyzed by 16S rDNA sequence and named as Pediococcus inopinatus Y2. The maximum viable cell number of the soy curd fermented by P. inopinatus Y2 was obtained at 10.73 log CFU/mL at $25^{\circ}C$ for 24 h of fermentation. By the results of panel test, the overall sensory quality of the soy curd produced by P. inopinatus Y2 was higher than that of Leuconostoc mesenteroides No. 4395 and Lactobacillus sakei strain No. 383.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of strains which were isolated from market milk treated with ESL(extended shelf life) and conventional system, and to compare the microbiological quality of ESL milk with conventional milk. In order to characterize the isolated strains, purification, Gram staining, spore staining, catalase, oxidase, motility test, and identification by means of automatic identificator were performed. The results obtained are as follows: total 364 selected strains were analyzed in this study. Depending upon the isolated source, the number of strains from conventional milk was found to be Higher than ESL-milk. By means of grouping of total strains, Bacillus ssp. and Staphylococcus ssp. showed to be predominant. But most of strains were distributed with various groups except Lactobacillus ssp. When the isolates were compared with milk process methods, Enterococcus ssp. was detected much on market milk treated with LTLT pasteurization. Also, Pseudomonas ssp. was detected much on conventional milk treated with UHT pasteurization. By comparison with genus groups depending upon storage temperature of market milk, the higher milk storage temperature increased, the most frequency detected Bacillus ssp. increased. Also, Pseudomonas ssp. was detected most frequently at 10$^{\circ}C$ storage condition. Generally this genus derived from post-contamination during milk processing and related to the quality of market milk during chilled system. In conclusion, it was shown that ESL system reduced post-contamination during milk process, following the improvement of product quality and life cycle during the distribution of market milk.

A bacterium producing novel lipolytic enzyme was isolated from house sewage and identified as Acinetobacter sp. BD5 based on physiological characterization and 16S rDNA sequencing. The lipolytic activity of Acinetobacter sp. BD5 was tested using an EL agar medium and CE agar medium supplemented with 1% tributyrin and olive oil, respectively. The formation of a clear zone around the colony was detected by agar medium supplemented with 1% tributyrin and olive oil, respectively and Acinetobacter sp. BD5 formed powder-like zone around the colony on LB agar medium containing Tween 20. The quantitative lipolytic activity was determined by using p-NP butyrate as substrate. Acinetobacter sp. BD5 secreted the lipolytic enzyme during exponential growth phase, reaching a maximum amount after 6 hours of incubation. The lipolytic enzyme was found to be optimally active at $60^{\circ}C$ and retained more than 70% at $70-80^{\circ}C$. It displayed a high degree of activity in a pH of 7.0 to 10.6, with an optimal pH of 9.0.

An autolytic system based on a thermally inducible phage lambda, λHL1, has been applied for the recovery of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [PHB] from a recombinant Escherichia coli XL1-Blue, harbouring a plasmid (pSYL105) containing the Alcaligenes eutrophus PHB biosynthesis genes. The lytic capability ofλHL1 was evaluated in flask culture for both lysogens, XL1-Blue (λHL1) and XL1-Blue (λHL1, pSYL105). When the optical density of culture at 600nm(OD600) reached 0.2, cell lysis was induced by increasing the temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $42^{\circ}C$. Most cells of XL1-Blue ($\lambda$HL1) were lysed by the autolytic system in an hour after the thermal induction, while the lytic efficiency was slightly lower for XLl-Blue (λHL1, pSYL105). The existence of pSYL105 in cells seemed to inhibit, to some extent, the lytic capability of λHL1 even at low PHB content. The lylic efficiency remarkably decreased as the induction was delayed to allow PHB accumulation. When a chemical induction using 2% (v/v) chloroform was introduced after an hours of thermal induction, we could obtain a good lytic efficiency.

Mixed substrate oil cakes are known to emit sulfides, ammonia, and amines. Microorganisms capable of removing odorous gases related to these sulfur compounds were isolated from colonies enriched in vials containing oil cakes and water. Activity tests for hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan reduction were performed to measure the sulfide reduction ratio of the isolates. Control groups were prepared with 0.25 g oil cakes and 10 ml water in a 100-ml vial without inoculation. The experimental groups were prepared similarly, albeit with an inoculum. Hydrogen sulfide removal efficiency of >90% was observed for an isolate, which was identified as Brevundimonas diminuta by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The sequence was deposited in the Korean Collection for Type Cultures under the accession number KCTC11724BP. B. diminuta could remove up to 200 ppmv standard hydrogen sulfide in 24 hours and demonstrated a maximum hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan removal efficiency of 100% at 453 ppmv and 98 ppmv, respectively, in vial tests. Furthermore, B. diminuta cells in 20% (v/w) medium showed removal efficiency of >85% for sulfur compounds in an odor emission chamber for swine manure.

The promoters of alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. had been cloned in the promoter probe vector pPL703 and recombinant plasmid p-12 had been constructed. As a result of subcloning, two different promoters were found to exist in the cloned 2.9 kb promoter fragment and two recombinant plasmids p-l2B1 and p-l2B2, each harboring different promoter, were constructed. The promoter activity, which was expressed in the CAT specific activity, of p-l2B1 was 7 times higher than that of p-l2B2. The promoter activity as a function of growth revealed that both promoters of p-l2B1 and p-l2B2 were expressed after the late logarithmic growth phase and repressed in the presence of 1.0％ (w/v) glucose.

The amino acid pattern of embryo and endosperm of brown rice different in specific gravity was investigated using Jinheung (local leading temperate variety) and IR667-Suweon 213 (high-yielding newly bred tropical variety). 1. Embryo of IR667 (higher protein rice) showed lower protein, and lower lysine or essential amino acid per protein than that of Jinheung (lower protein rice). 2. In both embryo and endosperm nitrogen recovery as amino acids was highest in middle class of specific gravity and lowest in low class indicating that abundancy of non-protein nitrogen in low class and decomposition of amino acids by starch in high specific gravity class. 3. In both embryo and endosperm IR667 showed abundancy in order of glutamic acid, aspartic acid while Jinheung showed glutamic acid, arginine, suggesting varietal difference in nitrogen metabolism. 4. In both IR667 and Jinheung least amino acid was histidine and next leucine in embryo but histidine and next threonine in endosperm, suggesting organ difference in nitrogen metabolism.

Purpose : The aim of this study is to know seasonal distribution of group A streptococci obtained from one center using emm genotyping and T serotyping in Masan from 2003 through 2004. Methods : Among children who visited the Changwon Fatima Hospital at Masan, Korea from June 2003 through February 2004, 100 patients who had clinical findings of acute pharyngitis, scarlet fever, and cellulitis were confirmed as GAS by culture, and were enrolled in our study. All obtained GAS were sent to the WHO Collaborative Center for Reference and Research on Streptococci, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis for T serotyping and emm genotyping. We classified these results again according to seasonal and disease's entities. Results : 19 different T serotypes was typed. T4(27.5%), T1(17.6%), T6(13.7%), and T12(13.7%) serotypes were relatively common in summer, while T4(28.3%), T12(15.2%), and T12/B3264(8.7%) were common in winter. T4 and T12 were persistent all year around. Distribution of T serotypes in 89 patients with pharyngotonsillitis were T4(26.7%), T12(14.0%), T1(12.8%), and T6(11.6%) in order of frequency. 15 different emm genotypes was typed. The number of emm 1, emm 6, emm 9, and emm 44 genotypes decreased or disappeared in winter, and the number of emm 3, emm 12, and emm 89 genotypes increased or reappeared in winter. Conclusion : Because T serotyping and emm genotyping are useful tools for evaluating epidemiology and pathogenesis of group A streptococci, we should monitor these strains every year, and should serotype and genotype GAS obtained from the invasive streptococcal infections.
