The protein-bound innerpolysaccharides (IPS) produced by suspended mycelial cultures of Inonotus obliquus have promising potentials as an effective antidiabetic as well as an immunostimulating agents. To enhance IPS production, intensive strain improvement process should be carried out using large amount of UV-mutated protoplasts. During the whole strain-screening process, the stage of solid growth-culture was found to be the most time-requiring step, thus preventing rapid screening of high-yielding producers. In order to reduce the cell growth period in the solid growth-stage, therefore, solid growth-medium was optimized using the statistical methods such as (i) Plackett-Burman and fractional factorial designs (FFD) for selecting positive medium components, and (ii) steepest ascent (SAM) and response surface (RSM) methods for determining optimum concentrations of the selected components. By adopting the medium composition recommended by the SAM experiment, significantly higher growth rate was obtained in the solid growth-cultures, as represented by about 41% larger diameter of the cell growth circle and higher mycelial density. Sequential optimization process performed using the RSM experiments finally recommended the medium composition as follows: glucose 25.61g/L, brown rice 12.53 g/L, soytone peptone 12.53 g/L, $MgSO_4$ 5.53 g/L, and agar 20 g/L. It should be noted that this composition was almost similar to the medium combinations determined by the SAM experiment, demonstrating that the SAM was very helpful in finding out the final optimum concentrations. Through the use of this optimized medium, the period for the solid growth-culture could be successfully reduced to about 8 days from the previous 15~20 days, thus enabling large and mass screening of high producers in a relatively short period.

An effective in vitro multiplication method was developed for clones of Populus davidiana Dode. Ten different media were tested for their effect on shoot multiplication. Both MS and LP medium with 0.2mg/l BAP appeared to be the best for the shoot multiplication with the rate of 9 shoots per explant. There were significant differences among the clones in both multiplication rate and shoot growth. While some clones did not require BAP to promote shoot formation, others did. More than 60% of in vitro shoots rooted on the half-strength GD medium containing 0.2mg/l IBA.

Shaking cultivation was carried out in 250 mL Erlenmeyel' flasks containing 60 mL of culture solution for 7 days. Artificial seawater was used as a basal culture medium. The cultivation was performed under the conditions that the temperature ranged from $4^{\circ}C$ to $32^{\circ}C$, the agitation speed 50 rpm to 200 rpm, and the sugar concentration 5 g/L to 35 g/L. The medium condition was cultured that sugar and nitrogen ratio 1.25 to 10. The biomass. the lipid content in biomass, and the DBA content of lipid were investigated according to the cultivation conditions. The lipid in biomass was distributed between 10 and 349'0, the DHA in lipid 34% to 43% of the lipid. and the biomass concentration 0.425 g/L to 4.50 g/L.

When microorganism is injected into porous medium such as soils, biomass is retained in the pore. Soil pore size and shape are varied from the initial condition as a result of biofilm formation which makes hydraulic conductivity reduced and friction rate between soil aggregates increased. In this research, hydraulic conductivity reduction was measured after microorganism are inoculated and cultured with synthetic substrate and nutrient. In addition, this research evaluated the applicability of biomass-soil mixture to the field condition as an alternative cover material in landfill by measuring hydraulic conductivity change after repetitive freeze-thaw cycles. Hydraulic conductivity of silty soil decreased by approximately 1/50 after biomass inoculation and cultivation. Biofilm attached on soil aggregates is resistant to acidic or basic condition. After repetitive freeze-thaw cycles, however, hydraulic conductivity increase implies that biomass clogging can be impaired.

To develope a liquid culture media for the mass culture of Beauveria bassiana blastospore, wheat bran and soybean cake were selected as a carbon and nitrogen source, respectively. The composition and final concentration of wheat bran and soybean cake in liquid culture media were determined by the growth of B. bassiana blastospore. The results showed that the growth of B. bassiana blastospore was effective in the rate of 3 wheat bran: 2 soybean cake and in 5% of final concentration of the liquid culture media, suggesting that the liquid culture media using wheat bran and soybean cake are available.

Cellular autolytic enzyme was isolated from the supernatant fluid of exponentially growing cuiture of Cl. butyricum ID-113. The autolysin was partially pruified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and gel filtration through Sephadex G-200. This autolytic enzyme lysed SDS-treated cell wall fractions of Cl. butyricum ID, but not whole cells at all. Its optimum pH and temperature were 5.0 and 37$^{\circ}C$, respectively. This enzyme was relatively stable at neutral pH, but sensitive to heat treatment. Enzyme activity was not influenced by the addition of various divalent cation, but inhibited by Cu$^{++}$.

One strain of Aspergillus niger K-25 producing an acid-stable ${\alpha}-amylase$ was isolated from the soil. The optimum culture conditions were investigated. The production of the acid-stable ${\alpha}-amylase$ was enhanced when the strain was incubated in a medium containing soluble starch 3.5%, peptone 2%, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.5%, $MaSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ 0.25% and $FeCI_3$ 1.0% at pH 3 for 7 days. However, higher activity of acid-stable ${\alpha}-amylase$ was demonstrated on wheat bran culture. Amylase production was doubled when A. niger K-25 was incubated on the wheat bran supplemented with fumaric acid buffer (pH 3).

백신이란 학문의 원조는 고금 동서를 불문하고 영국의 Jenner라는 것은 우리가 잘아는 사실이다. 이것은 약 200년전의 일이며 그후 각종 전염병예방 백신이 개발되어 오늘날 우리인간은 예전ㅇ 비해 각종 전염병에 대해 큰 은혜를 받고 있는 셈이다.특히 1949년 미국의 Enders박사 일맥의 조직 배양의 개량법에 의한 바이러스의 대량 배양과 정제및 농축이 용이하게 된것은 백신생산 개발문제뿐만아니라 바이러스학과 전염병 예방학의 발전의 일대혁신을 가져왔으며 세균학에 있어서 Koch의 고형배제를 사용하여 많은 병원성세균의 발견을 하게된 것과 비슷한 느낌을 준다. Enders의 조직배양의 modern technique는 아직까지 원인불명인 여러 종류의 바이러스 전염병 병원체가 구명되었으며 지금도 계속 새로운 바이러스가 발견되고 있는 중이다. 그 대표적인 예를 들면 폴리오(Polio)를 중심으로 Coxsackie virus의 A및 B군과 ECHO virus등 장관계바이러스들의 발견과 그 체계적정비 그리고 Adeno virus를 위시한 호흡기계 바이러스들의 계속적인 발견과 그 실험실진단법의 확립등을 들수 있다. 한편 백신개발에 대한 확립 등을 들수있다. 한편 백신개발에 대한 발자취를 보면 폴리오를 위시하여 홍역(Measles)백신, 멈프스(Mumps)및 풍진 (Rubella virus) 백신등의 개발은 근래 선,후진국을 막론하고 이러한 전염병의 예방효과가 눈에 띠게 덕을 보고있는 것이다. 지금 세계적으로 많은 전염병의 병원체가 바이러스라는 것이 알려져 있고 또한 이에 대한 백신의 개발연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이번 기회에 바이러스백신의 전망이라는 제목을 가지고 논하게 된것을 기쁘게 생가하며 동시에 어려운 과제라고도 생각된다. 왜냐하면 아직 우리나라에서는 생산을 못하고 있는것이 많은데 그 전망을 말하기가 어려운 까닭이며 또한 제한된 지면에서 충분히 고찰하기는 어렵다. 우리나라에서 자주 거론되는 백신 및 종류에 국한하여 그 문제점과 앞으로의 전망을 고찰해 보기로 한다.

The changes in antigenicity during cultivation of streptomycetes were determined by immunodiffusion assay and indirect ELISA. New precipitin lines in immunodiffusion assay began to appear in the growth period of the soluble pigment production and became thickened thereafter. The increase in the antigenicity was also confirmed by ELISA. The antigenic development was relatively weak for S. lavendulae and S. viridochromogenes while that was strong for S. lavendulae and S. viridochromogenes. The results indicated that Streptomyces strains, even though not proved for some strains, changed the compositions of cell envelope during submerged growth and this could be estimated quantitatively by serological method.

Monoclonal antibodies against the zoospores of Allomyces macrogynus were prepared using standard hybridoma technique. Mice were immunized either with the fixed zoospores or the zoospore proteins, and the production of the antibodies from the resulting hybridomas were screened by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Thirty hybridomas were initially identified ans six hybridomas were purified to the single cell clones. Culture supernatants from the hybridomas were tested for the effects on the growth of the germ tubes, and some of the hybridoma culture supernatants studied showed growth stimulatory effects.
