Effect of cell density on the xylitol production from xylose by Candida parapsilosis KFCC 10875 was investigated. The concentrated cells were obtained by centrifugation of culture broth. The xylitol production rate was maximum at the cell concentration of 20 g/l and the specific xylitol production rate decreased when the cell concentration was increased due to oxygen limitation. Effect of the initial concentration of xylose on the xylitol production was also examined using the concentrated cells of 20 g/l. The xylitol production rate, specific xylitol production rate, and xylitol yield from xylose were maximum at 170 g/l xylose. Above 170 g/l xylose, the xylitol production rate was remarkably decreased. The concentrated cells could also be obtained by adjusting the dissolved oxygen (DO) during fermentation. The rapid accumulation of cells up to 20 g/l was achieved by maintaining an increased level of DO during the exponential growth phase and then, for the efficient xylitol production, the DO was changed to a low level in the range of 0.7-1.5%. A fed-batch fermentation of xylose by adjusting the DO level was carried out in a fermentor and the final xylitol concentration of 140 g/l from xylose of 200 g/l could be obtained for 56 h fermentation.

One hundred and fifty one mutant strains were obtained from the parent strain Aspergillus oryzae MF by ultra-violet ray irradiation. Among those mutants a strain, Asp. oryzae UM-36 which hyperprodued protease, was selected and its morphological characteristics and the production of enzymes protease, ${\alpha}$-amylase, and glucoamylase on wheat bran koji and on soy-sauce koji were studied. The results obtained were as follows 1. The selected mutant showed slower growth and weak sporulation on malt agar and on Czapek agar than the parent strain. 2. The conidiophores of the mutant were generally shorter than those of the parent when grown on malt agar. 3. Sectoring in colonies was not found when grown on malt agar and on Czapek agar. 4. The level of protease production by the mutant was increased approximately 1,4-fold higher on wheat bran koji and 2-fold higher on soysauce koji than by the parent. 5. The production of ${\alpha}$-amylase and glucoamylase by the mutant were also increased as compared with the parent on wheat bran koji and on soy sauce koji. 6. In the case of parent strain and mutant strain, the highest activity of protease appeared after three days in wheat bran medium at $30^{\circ}C$ incubation, but the highest activities of ${\alpha}$-amylase and glucoamylase appeared after two days.

The immobilized culture system of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined to improve the efficiency of vinegar production from persimmon juice. Optimum concentration of Na-alginate for the immobilization was 2%. When the 1eakage of yeast from get beads was checked by turbidity of culture medium with varying concentration of Na-alginate from 1 to 4%, turbidity of culture medium increased from 8 hrs of cultivation with 1% Na-alginate concentration showing optical density of 0.82 at 20 hrs. However, the increase in turbidity of culture medium was slow with 2-4% Na-alginate showing optical density of 0.55-0.58 at 20 hrs. Microscopical analysis of gel matrix showed that the immobilized yeast was grown well regardless of Na-alginate concentration. Optimum size of gel bead and amount of inoculation were 2-3 m and 33mg, respectively. For ethanol production aerobic cultivation for 121hrs using cohen plug followed by anaerobic cultivation using silicon plug equipped with a check valve was the most effective.

Ethanol production from raw starch was performed using the co-immobilized culture system of Rhizopu japonicus and zymomonas mobilis(R-Z). Glucose Production in immobilized R. japonicus culture was 2-fold higher than that in free cell culture. Ethanol production was 1.67g/L(Yp/s, 0.094) and 6.549/L(Yp/s, 0.38) in R-Z and R-Z 24 culture system, respectively. R-Z system was modified and designated as R-Z 24 system by replacing cotton plug with silicon check valve after 24h fermentation with R-Z system. Optimal substrate concentration for ethanol production in batch culture was 5%(w/v) and ethanol concentration produced was 15.02g/L(Yp/s, 0.36). Ethanol yield(Yp/s, 0.38) in fed-batch culture of 5 times with 2%(w/v) substrate was equal to that in batch culture of 2%(w/v) substrate.

조류는 발생학적 특성상 수정과 초기 배발생을 제외한 거의 대부분의 개체발생 과정이 난각 속에서 진행된다. 그러므로 수정란에 생명 공학적 기법을 적용하는데 있어서, 포유류의 경우 여러 생명공학 기법이 적용된 수정란은 초기발생을 위한 체외배양 이후 반드시 모체에 이식되어야 하지만, 조류의 경우 인공적인 체외배양 체계가 확립되어 있어야 생명공학 기법이 적용된 수정란을 개체까지 발생시킬 수 있게 된다. 닭의 난자는 난관 누두부에 배란 후 약 15분내에 정자의 침입을 받아 수정되어 난관 팽대부에 도달하면 1세포기 수정란이 된다. 그 후 수정란이 협부에 도달하면 최초로 분할이 일어나기 시작하여, 방란시에는 그 세포수가 60,000개에 이르게 된다. 한편, 계란의 형성 과정에서는 다량의 난황을 포함한 난자가 난관 누두부로 배란되어 정자와 만나게 되면 수정란으로서 계란 형성이 계속되고 정자와 만나지 못하게 되면 무정란으로서 계란 형성을 계속하게된다. 배란된 난자가 난관누두부를 거쳐 난관팽대부에 도달되면 난자는 농후난백에 의해 둘러싸이게 되고 난관혈부에 도달되면 난각막이 형성되고 수양성 난백이 침적하게 된다. 그 후, 난관협부를 지난 난자는 난관자궁부에 도달되면 20시간이상 그곳에 머물면서 난각형성이 진행된 다음 방란된다. 따라서 수정란에 외래유전자를 미세주입하여 형질전환 닭을 생산하기 위해서는 수정란을 암탉의 난관 내에서 최초 분할되기 전에 외부로 끄집어내어야 하며, 수정란에 외래 유전자를 미세주입한 다음에는 다시 암탉의 난관내로 이식해야 하지만 현재까지 그러한 기술은 확립되어 있지 못하다. 그렇기 때문에 모체의 난관 속에서 일어나는 배 발생과 그 이후 개체까지의 발생을 위하여 인공적인 체외배양 체계가 확립되어 있어야 한다. 따라서 본 발표에서는 형질전환 닭을 생산하기 위한 양질의 1세포기 수정란 획득 방법과 획득된 수정란의 체외 배양방법에 관하여 기술적인 측면에서 고찰 해보고자 하며, 그와 같은 배양 기술을 이용하여 외래유전자를 도입한 일련의 결과에 관하여 보고 하고자한다.

Embryogenic calli were induced from mature seed scutella of anther culture-derived rice variety Zhonghua 8. Cell suspension cultures were initiated from friable embryogenic calli and utilized as source material for protoplast isolation. Generally, the older and finer cell suspensions gave higher protoplast yields than younger suspension cultures. Protoplasts exhibited sustained cell division and formed microcalli when cultured in KPR medium supplemented with 0.5 mg $l^{-1}$ 2,4-D, 1.0 mg $l^{-1}$ NAA and 0.5 mg $l^{-1}$ zeatin using the agarose embedding procedure without feeder cells. Protoplast plating efficiencies ranged from 0.20 to 0.54％. Microcalli were transferred to MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg $l^{-1}$ kinetin and 0.5mg $l^{-1}$ NAA for plant regeneration. The regeneration frequencies were 2 to 12％, depending on the cell suspension lines of Zhonghua 8. The plants were transferred to the glasshouse and were fertile.

Optimal culture conditions were characterized for production of crude biosurfactant of Bacillus subtilis JK-1. During incubation of B. subtilis JK-1, the bacterial growth pattern, changes of the surface tension at variable temperatures, pH and NaCl concentrations in bacterial culture medium were studied. The strain was able to grow and produce biosurfactant at $15-45^{\circ}C$, in the pH range of 6-10, and at 0-10% (w/v) NaCl. In case, culture broth pH was gradually changed to neutral or weak alkaline. Optimal culture conditions for crude biosurfactant production were at $35^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation and the surface tension of biosurfactant was 24.0 mN/m. Besides, as the concentration of NaCl was increased from 0 to 10% (w/v), the growth was decreased, pH of the culture broth was converted from weak alkaline to acidic, and the surface tension rised.

A bacterium which degrades efficiently synthetic detergents was isolated from the polluted waters, activated sludge of wastewater treatment plants or polluted soil. This bacterium showed considerably higher growth rate in the agar plate containing $2,000{\mu}g/ml$ of synthetic detergents than any other isolated strains, was identified as a Pseudomonas fluorescens or strains similar to it. The strain was named as a Pseudomonas fluorescens S1. Optimum pH and temperature for the growth of the Pseudomonas fluorescens S1 were pH 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. The strain was resistant to streptomycin and gentamycin, but sensitive to kanamycin. The strain was greatly resistant to zinc chloride, lead nitrate and copper sulfate, but unable to grow in the presence of relatively low concentrations of mercury chloride and silver nitrate. This strain utilized benzene, catechol, cyclohexane and xylene as a sole carbon source. The strain was well grown in the medium containing ABS 10,000${\mu}g$/ml. Degradation of ABS was 55% and 60% at 20${\mu}g$/ml and 100${\mu}g$/ml of ABS, respectively. Benzene ring was degraded 45% in 100${\mu}g$/ml of ABS. During the incubation of the strain in the medium containing ABS 100${\mu}g$/ml and COD 10,000${\mu}g$/ml for 4 days, degradation of ABS and COD were reduced to 40${\mu}g$/ml and 3,200${\mu}g$/ml, respectively. Total amino acid content of the Pseudomonas fluorescens S1 grown with 1,000${\mu}g$/ml of ABS was 115mg/g cell, whereas its content was decreased in the bacterium grown without synthetic detergent by 9.4%.

When Persicaria thunbergii and Rumex crispus were treated with Cd($NO_3$)$_2$ and Pb($NO_3$)$_2$ of 5 or 10 mM for 5 days, the amount of bioaccumulation of $Pb^{2+}$ in the leaf of P. thunbergii was 2.87-8.08$\mu\textrm{g}$/g and that of $Cd^{2+}$ was 0.82-2.79$\mu\textrm{g}$/g. In the case of P. thunbergii, the concentration of $Pb^{2+}$ in the leaf was higher than that of $Cd^{2+}$. On the other hand, in R. crispus, the concentration of $Cd^{2+}$ and $Pb^{2+}$ were similar as follows ; 1.49$\mu\textrm{g}$/g in $Cd^{2+}$ 5mM, 2.90$\mu\textrm{g}$/g in Cd2+ 10mM, 1.83$\mu\textrm{g}$/g in $Pb^{2+}$ 5mM and 2.73$\mu\textrm{g}$/g in $Pb^{2+}$ 10mM. The remaining rate of heavy metals and the variation of pH in the cultured soil decreased as compared with control (100 % and pH 6.48) after 5 days as follows; to 77.l% and pH 6.39 in $Cd^{2+}$ 5mM, 90.2% and pH 5.79 in $Cd^{2+}$ 10 mM, 81.1% and pH 6.00 in $Pb^{2+}$ 5mM, and 85.7% and pH 5.80 in $Pb^{2+}$ 10 mM. The result of size exclusion chromatography, several phytochelatins were seperated from the extract of the leaf of both plants treated with heavy metals. The molecular mass of these phytochelatins were estimated as follows; in the case of P. thunbergii, about 4,300-8,600 da by $Cd^{2+}$ and about 3,200-9,700 da by $Pb^{2+}$, and in R. crispus, about 4,300 da by $Cd^{2+}$ and about 3,200-7,500 da by $Pb^{2+}$. In addition, $A_{254}$ of these phytochelatins were higher than $A_{280}$. [Phytochelatin, Persicaria thunbergii, Rumex crispus]

조류의 배자는 포유류의 배자처럼 모체로부터 영양분을 공급받는 것이 아니라 알속에 저장되어 있는 영양물질로 발육한다. 배자의 발육은 대부분 체외에서 진행된다. 난자는 배란된 후 수정되어 난관팽대부에서 1세포기 수정란이 된다. 그 후 난관협부로 이동하여 최초로 분열이 일어나 배자의 발육이 진행되고, 산란시에는 세포수가 약6만여 개에 달한다. 따라서 수정란에 유전조작기법을 사용하기 위해서는 모체의 난관속에서 일어나는 배발생과 난각속에서 일어나는 개체발생을 위한 체외배양법과 대리난각 배양법이 확립되어 있어야 한다. 그와 같은 기술은 닭 수정란의 배 발생 관찰 및 분석과 유용한 물질을 생산하기 위한 형질전환 가금 연구에 중요한 기술로 사용되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 1세포기 닭 수정란의 체외배양과 대리난각 배양에 있어서 수정란의 조건과 대리난각의 조건이 배자의 생존율과 부화율에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 체외배양과 대리난각 배양에 의한 병아리 생산 효율을 제고하기 위한 기초자료를 얻고자 실시하였다. 주요 조사 항목은 수정란의 채란위치, 배자의 발생단계, 수정란의 무게, 대리난각용 계란의 보존 기간, 대리난각의 두께, 대리난각 두께의 감소율, 대리난각의 크기 등을 조사하여 배자의 생존율과 부화율에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 본 실험의 결과는 초기 발생이 빠른 배자가 생존율과 부화율이 높았으며, 본 실험에 사용한 대리난각용 계란의 보관기간이 짧을수록 배자의 생존율과 부화율이 높은 것으로 조사되었다(p<0.05). 그러나 대리난각용 계란의 크기와 대리난각의 두께 차이는 배자의 생존율과 부화율에 큰 영향이 없는 것으로 조사되었다.하였을 때 분할율은 68.0%였으며, 이중 12.0%가 상실배 또는 배반포로 발달하였다. 뿐만 아니라 10% FBS가 첨가된 TCM-199 배양액에 난관상피세포와 공배양을 실시하였을 경우는 72.0%가 분할하였으며, 이중 16.7%가 상실배 또는 배반포로 발달하였다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 활성화 처리는 ionomycin과 6-DMAP 용액처리가 적합하며, 단위발생란의 체외배양은 보다 적합한 배양조건의 확립이 필요한 것으로 생각된다.icalcium lactate 공동배양은 체외배양에 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.생산하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.4시간에 등급별 회수율이 각각 GI(27.4%), GII(14.7%), GIII(43.2%), GIV(14.7%)로 나타났으며, 46~50시간에는 GI(12.0%), GII(12.0%), GIII(28.0%), GIV(48.0%)로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 미성숙 난자의 회수는 hCG 투여 후 29~34시간이 적합한 것으로 생각된다. 가금의 생산에 있어서 매우 효율적이고 주목할 만한 방법으로 사료된다. 것으로 나타났다.적외선.열풍 복합건조방법이 높게 나타나 이것은 곡물 표면에 원적외선 방사에의한 복사열이 전달되어 열장해를 받았기 때문으로 판단되며, 금후 더 연구하여 적정 열풍온도 및 방사체 크기를 구명해야 할 것이다.으로 보여진다 따라서 옻나무 유래 F는 포유동물의 생식기능에 중요하게 작용하는 것으로 사료된다.된다.정량 분석한 결과이다. 시편의 조성은 33.6 at% U, 66.4 at% O의 결과를 얻었다. 산화물 핵연료의 표면 관찰 및 정량 분석 시험시 시편 표면을 전도
