Through the PVA degrading test, 8 species of microbes were finally isolated, and two species among them were identified. To search PVA degrading rate by using 8 species of microbes, single species of microbes and combination of each species were tested. As a result, single species of microbes showed 96% of PVA degrading rate, and the similar result was obtained by using combination of two species. And 78% of PVA degrading rate was obtained by using enzyme which was secreted from good PVA degrading microbes. As a result of identification, this good PVA degrading microbes were Paenibacillus sp. and Microbacterium barkeri.

Twenty-nine bacterial isolates capable of growing on aniline as n sole source of carbon and nitrogen were obtained. Ten of these isolates were identified. Nine isolates were Identified as Pseudomonas spp. and one was Acinetobacter sp.. Five strains among 29 isolates had one or several plasmids. Four of these five strains utilized aniline through meta pathway and one through ortho pathway. Pseudomonas acidovorans 4A1 which utilized aniline through meta pathway harbored a plasmid of ca. 230 kilobases shown to be involved in aniline metabolism.

Diesel oil-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from diesel oil contaminated soil and called HS series (HS1, HS2 and HS3). These strains were identified as Acinetobacter sp. (HS1) and Pseudomonas sp. (HS2 and HS3) based on Biolog test, cellular fatty acid composition, and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. These strains were coltivated in liquid minimal media containing 2% diesel oil, and diesel oil-degrading activity was measured. As result, all strains degraded over 70% of total diesel oil. But PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon)- and pris- tane-degrading rate of these strain was below 20％ of total PAH and pristane. The HS 1 strain showed highest hydrophobicity and low emulsifying activity among the experimental strains and high diesel oil-degrading activity. From the above-mentioned result, microcosm experiment was performed with the HS1 strain. The HS1 strain showed a degrading activity of over 80% of total diesel oil in microcosm test. And microbial activity was correlated to diesel oil-degrading activity. Therefore, it is suggested that the HS1 strains could be effectively used for the bioremediation for diesel oil.

To develop the new strains of microorganisms having the degradative ability for various aromatic hydrocarbons, the hybrid plasmid pKG2 having the 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid(2,4-D) degradative genes, the hybrid plasmid pKG3 containg the naphthalene degradative genes and TOL plasmid were introduced into Pseudomonas putida KUD 12 and P. putida KUP 10 by transformation or conjugation which originally have the degradative ability of the synthetic surfactants and phthalate esters, respectively. From P. putida KUD12, the new strains of P. putida KUD101(pKG2), KUD102(pKG3), KUD103(TOL), and KUD202(pKG3, TOL) were obtained, and KUD106(pKG2), KUD107(pKG3), KUD108(TOL) were originated from the P.putida KUP10. The degradative abilities in P. putida KUD101, KUD102 and KUD107 were similar with those of the original strains. The P. putida KUD103, KUD106 and KUD202 had a little lower and P. putida KUD108 had a better degradative abilitie than those of the original ones. In the case of mixed cultures, the mixed culture of KUD107 and KUD108 had a better degradative abilities than those of the other mixed cultures.

백색부후균에 의한 리그닌의 분해양상을 검토하기 위해 리그닌 분해능이 우수하고 laccase활성이 높은 LKY-7 및 C. versicolor-13 균주와 manganese peroxidase 활성은 비교적 높으나 laccase활성이 전혀 나타나지 않는 LSK-27 균주로 lignosulfonate를 처리하였다. LKY-7 과 C. versicolor-13 균주에서는 lignosulfonate의 중합화 현상이 관찰되었으며 중합화는 laccase 활성 과 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. LSK-27 균주에서는 lignosulfonate의 고분자 영역이 분해되면서 탈중합화가 일어났으며 리그닌 분해 효소로는 manganese peroxidase만 검출되었다. 보조기질로 glucose를 첨가한 결과, LKY-7 균주에서는 laccase 활정이 각소하면서 중합화 현상이 어느 정도 감소하였으나 C. versicolor-13 균주는 laccase 활성의 증가와 함께 중합화도 촉진되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 LSK-27 균주에서도 glucose 첨가에 의해 manganese peroxidase 활성이 증가되면서 lignosulfonate의 중합화가 관찰되었다. lignosulfonate 중합화에는 laccase 뿐만 아니라 manganese peroxidase도 관여하며 보조기질로서 탄소원의 종류도 영향을 미칠것으로 검토되었다.

The cells obtained from diesel contaminated site were tested for diesel degradation by culturing them on the culture medium that contained diesel as the only carbon source. Two strains that grew well in the culture media were separated: one formed white colony and another strain formed yellow colony. When they were cultured together, much higher diesel degradation was obtained compares to that of individual cell culture. Mixed culture of white and yellow colony forming strains grew well with 1%(v/v) diesel and the addition of growth nutrients increased the diesel degradation. Additional nitrogen source was efficient for higher diesel degradation (over 90%) when it was compared with that without nitrogen source. When mixed culture of white and yellow colony forming cells were applied to the soil column system contaminated by diesel, 30 mL/min of air flow rate was found to be sufficient to degrade diesel oil. The diesel degradation did not increase noticeably at higher flow rate. The addition of nitrogen source resulted in the increase in diesel degradability.

2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T)-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from rice field and field in suburbs of Taejon. Of the total 100 isolates, 19 strains were selected by fast growth on solid minimal media containing 2,4,5-T as a sole of carbon and energy, and they were identified to genus level. 11 strains were identified as Pseudomonas, 4 strains as Acinetobacter, 1 strains were as Alcaliagenes and 3 strains were not identified. Strains MU19 and MU92 which were identified as Pseudomonas were capable of degradation for 4 kinds of chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons, 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T, MCPA and 3CB. Acinetobacter sp. MU38 showed the highest degradability in liquid minimal media at 48 hours after inoculation, and Pseudomonas spp. MU19. MU57, MU73, and MU92 were able to degrade carbon source at higher rates. As the results Acinetobacter sp. MU38 and Pseudomonas spp. MU19 and MU92 were capable of biodegradation for broad range of halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, and had higher rates of degradation for 2,4,5-T.

Pilot scale(2.5 ton) three-stage methane fermentation process was developed for the rapid production of methane from food wastes in our laboratory. Eleven strains responsible for the primary semianaerobic hydrolysis/acidogenic fermentation system were isolated and characterized. Among them, the number of gram positive bacteria was eight and that of gram negative bacteria was three. They were rod and showed positive reaction to catalase. The strain K5 was found to have the highest enzyme activities of amylase and protease.

Bacteria utilizing naphthalene as a sole carbon source for growth were isolated and identified and code named as Acinetobacter calcoaceticus R-88, Pseudomonas testosteroni R-87 and Pseudomonas putida R-89. Among these isolates, A. calcoaceticus R-88 found most effective in utilizing naphthalene. The optimal pH, temperature and concentration of naphthalene was 7.0, $30^{\circ}C$ and 10mM, respectively. The strain degraded naphthalene to salicylic acid as an intermediate. And the strain showed to be resistant to ampicillin, tetracyclin, chloramphenicol and kanamycin. A. calcoaceticus R-88 harbored plasmid DNA which was believed to be involved in naphthalene degradation.
