Streptococcus suis has been identified as a major cause of contagious disease in pigs Ithas been isolated worldwide from pigs suffering from meningitis, bronchopneumonia, polyserositis, polyarthritis and septicemia. Two hundred and fifty-five lung samples of slaughter pigs with gross lung lesions were collected from Jan. to Dec. 1995 in southern Chonnam area. Isolation of S suis were tested by biochemical, serological methods and antimicrobial susceptibility. The results were summerrized as follows ; 1. S suis was Isolated from 30 of 254 pneumonic lungs, 14 Isolates were isolated only, 12 were isolated with p. multocida and 4 were isolated with unidentified Gram positive cocci. 2. In biochemical characteristics studies, all isolates were not grown in 6.5% NaCl medium, and most isolates utilized L-leucine-2-naphtylamide and trehalose, didn't utilize sorbitol, ribose and L-arabinose. 3. In slide agglutination test, 6(20%) Isolates were classified as serotype 2, 4(13.3%) isolates were as serotype l/2, 16, 2 and 2(6.6%) were as serotype 1, 4, 13. 4. S suis isolates showed marked susceptibility to amoxicillin, oxacillin, cephalothin and cepoferazone and high resistance to kanamycin, streptomycin, tetracycline and erythromycin.

Two lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with high ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-producing capacity were isolated from naturally aged cheese. Examination of the biochemical features using an API kit indicated that the two strains belonged to Lactobacillus. They were gram positive, rod-type bacteria, and fermented arabinose, melezitose, melibiose and xylose, but did not utilize cellobiose or trehalose. 16S rDNA sequencing analysis confirmed that they were Lactobacillus buchneri and Lactobacillus sp. They were accordingly named as Lactobacillus buchneri OPM-1 and Lactobacillus sp. OPM-2, and could produce GABA from MRS broth supplemented with 10 g/L of monosodium glutamate (MSG) at a productivity of 91.7 and 116.7 mg/L/hr, respectively. Cell extracts of L. buchneri OPM-1 and Lactobacillus sp. OPM-2 showed glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity, for which the optimum pH and temperature were 5.5 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively.

제주민속주인 좁쌀약주의 제조를 위하여 전국에서 수집된 35종의 누룩으로부터 분리하여 선발한 균주를 사용하여 균주와 원료배합비율에 따른 누룩을 제조한 후 양조과정에서의 발효특성을 검토하였다. 좁쌀주의 유기산 및 유리당의 분석결과 유기산은 lactic acid와 acetic acid가 대부분이었고, 이외에 citric acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, fumaric acid도 일부 검출되었다. 유리당은 glucose와 arabinose, maltose가 많은 함량을 나타내었고, 이외에 xylose도 일부에서 검출되었다. 향기성분은 i-amyl alcohol, i-butyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol 등이 주를 이루고 있었으며, 이외에 ethylacetate, acetaldehyde가 검출되었다. i-buthyl alcohol과 n-propyl alcohol은 대조구인 Dl이 다른 처리구보다 높게 나타났고, i-amyl alcohol은 K5 처리구가 높게 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 우수균주로 분리하여 제조한 누룩을 사용하여 좁쌀주를 양조하는 경우, 품질을 유지하면서 수율을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

Polysaccharide fractions were prepared from Forsythia Corea by several different extraction schedules. The fractions obtained were designated as ForCo A, ForCo B and ForCo C respectively. ForCo C was further purified through Sephadex G 200 column chromatography and obtianed two subfractions (Coreana A, Coreana B). ForCo showed marked antitumor activity against sarooma 180 and its activity was dose-dependent. Coreana A, purified from ForCo C, showed somewhat higher antitumor activity. ForCo C increased the number of circulating leucocytes and peritoneal exudate cells, but didn't show any significant effects on the phagocytic activity and total serum protein level. Chemical analysis showed that ForCo C was composed of glucose, galactose, xylose and arabinose. A close relationship between antitumor activities and polysaccharide contents waw observed. These results indicate strongly that antitumor active principle of Forsythia Corea is polysaccharide.

Changes of free sugars and sugar alcohols of fresh shiitake were measured during storage. Shiitake were stored at 1$^{\circ}C$ and -4$^{\circ}C$, with non-packaging, wrapping, 0.03mm polyethylene(PE)film packaging(unpunched and punched, unprecooled and precooled before storage), 0.05mm PE film (vacuum packaging). Chanties of glycerol, arabitol and arabinose contents were not marked during storage. The content chanties of $\beta$-rhamnose, fructose, glucose, mannitol, sucrose and maltose were the smallest until 40days storage and were increased significantly after 40 days and then decreased significantly after 50days. Content of $\beta$-rhamnose during storage when was treated unprecooling, 0.03mm PE film punched and unpunched at -4$^{\circ}C$ was the highest 25.08% and 34.86%, respectively in 50~60days. Content of mannitol was not changed at -4$^{\circ}C$.

An extracellular polymer (exo-polymer) with hepatoprotective properties was produced after a 6-day submerged mycelial culture of Ganoderma lucidum WK-003. The glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) activities in the serum of intoxicated Sprague-Dawley rats were decreased from 871 to 263 by the oral administration of the exo-polymer (20 mg/kg/day) for 4 consecutive days. Rhamnose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, galactose, and glucose were found in the exo-polymer along with aspartic acid, glutamic acid, histidine, serine, glycine, arginine, alanine, tryptophan, valine, phenylalanine, isoleucine, and leucine.

The major polysaccharide, named EAP, was purified from the aerial parts of Eclipta alba by Sepharose CL-2B ion exchange chromatography and recycling HPLC. The molecular weight of EAP was estimated to be 20911.9 D by MALDI-TOF MS. In addition, the sugar composition was determined to be arabinose (23.6%), mannose (24.8%), galactose (12.3%), and glucose (41.3%), respectively, by GC analysis. The EAP decreased the blood sugar level, which was induced by alloxan in rats, dose dependently.

To enhance the utilization of garlic shoots as food material, the nutritional and volatile flavor com pounds were investigated for garlic shoots, both cold and warm region type garlic shoots. Proximate composition of cold and warm region type was as follows, respectively; crude protein 2%, crude lipid 0.4%, crude ash 1.1% and 1.5%, crude fiber 1.3% and 1.5%. The major fatty acids of 2 varieties of garlic shoots were linoleic, palmitic and linolenic acid, and their desaturation ratio of them was comparatively high, showing 73.7 and 66.8%, respectively. Free sugars were composed of glucose, sucrose, fructose, arabinose and sorbitol. In the total amino acid analysis, the major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid. The volatile flavor compounds of fresh garlic shoots extracted by hexane and Likens-Nikerson steam distillation apparatus were identified to be methyl-2-propenyl disulfide, diallyl disufide, propenyl propyl disulfide, di-2-propyl-trisulfide, 2-vinyl-1,3-dithiane, and 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin. Hexane was more effective than steam distillation for extraction of volatile components of garlic shoots.

The saccharification of cellulose and hemicellulose is essential for utilizing lignocellulosic biomass as a biofuel. While cellulose is composed of glucose only, hemicelluloses are composed of diverse sugars such as xylose, arabinose, glucose, and galactose. Sulfolobus acidocaldarius is a good potential candidate for biofuel production using hemicellulose as this archaeon simultaneously utilizes various sugars. However, S. acidocaldarius has to be manipulated because the enzyme that breaks down hemicellulose is not present in this species. Here, we engineered S. acidocaldarius to utilize xylan as a carbon source by introducing xylanase and β-xylosidase. Heterologous expression of β-xylosidase enhanced the organism's degradability and utilization of xylooligosaccharides (XOS), but the mutant still failed to grow when xylan was provided as a carbon source. S. acidocaldarius exhibited the ability to degrade xylan into XOS when xylanase was introduced, but no further degradation proceeded after this sole reaction. Following cell growth and enzyme reaction, S. acidocaldarius successfully utilized xylan in the synergy between xylanase and β-xylosidase.

A novel brown rot fungus Phaeolus schweinitzii IUM 5048 was firstly used for ethanol production. It was found that this fungus produced ethanol with various sugars, such as glucose, mannose, galactose and cellobiose at 0.28, 0.22, 0.06, and 0.22 g of ethanol per g of sugar consumed, respectively. This fungus showed relatively good ethanol production from xylose at 0.23 g of ethanol per g of sugar consumed. However, the ethanol conversion rate of arabinose was relatively low (at 0.08 g of ethanol per g sugar). P. schweinitzii was capable of producing ethanol directly from rice straw and corn stalks at 0.11 g and 0.13 g of ethanol per g of substrates, respectively, when the fungus was cultured in a basal medium supplemented with 20 g/L rice straw or corn stalks. These results suggest that P. schweinitzii can hydrolyze cellulose or hemicellulose to fermentable sugars and convert them to ethanol simultaneously under oxygen limited condition.
