  • Many advanced scholars and policy makers say that biotechnology is and will be the most important technology in 21th century. And biotechnology has a lots of character which are new and high tech industry, costing too much on early R&D stage and so on. One of them is that it can't be developed all seater by one single firm. So effective and efficient way to solve this generic problem is using the infrastructure which is given by government for flourishing the bio industry, especially, Knowledge infrastructure. The purpose of this study is to understand and give the information about which knowledge infrastructure affects biotechnology firms to obtain competitive advantage in technological improvement. To develop this object, I made 5 variables about infrastructure in biotechnology such as high-skilled researchers infrastructure, R&D policy infrastructure, industrialization infrastructure that supports the biotechnology industry, networking infrastructure between firms, universities, research centers, and finally bio-safety infrastructure. According to this study, to obtain technological competitive advantage for Korean bio firms, all main actors those are government, industry, university, research center they try to develop bio sector at the same time. After this cooperated effort, Korean bio firms and industry can get a international competitiveness in the global society which no one conquer the market.

  • Survival of thermotolerant Lactobacillus reuteri KUB-AC5 in $20\%$ (w/v) skim milk was found to be $11.3\%$ after spray drying by using a pilot scale spray dryer with inlet temperature at $170^{\circ}C$ and outlet temperature at $85^{\circ}C$. The ability of dried cell to produce antimicrobial activity was not affected by the spray drying. The model system for predicting viability of spray-dried L. reuteri KUB-AC5 during long-term storage was established, based on the Arrhenius equation, and verified by experimental data, because the viability of cells during storage can be correlated with storage temperature. The viability during storage at $30^{\circ}C$ declined more rapidly than that storage at $4^{\circ}C$.

  • The 21st century belongs to biotechnology as it made profound impact in the field of health, food, agriculture and environmental protection. India's biotechnology industry is poised to record substantial growth, perhaps even overtake the robust IT industry. The objectives of the study are to determine the existing HR practices in Biotech Industry and to understand the need for the up gradation in existing HR Policies. Conclusive and descriptive research design has been used. Data is collected from 122 employees in 23 companies of Biotech Industry. It was found that Biotechnology companies require managers with unique qualities. The lack of solid managerial training and the associated risk of failure often have long-term consequences for the careers of research professionals. The efforts to achieve excellence through a focus on learning, quality, teamwork, and reengineering are driven by the way organizations get things done and how they treat people. Biotech industry is trying to establish itself in India for last one decade but is not showing any phenomenal growth because they still do not valuing their human resource as much they should be.

  • Recently, chitosan has increased attention in commercial applications in the food industry in terms of its biocompatibility and nontoxicity. In particular, chitosan has been used as a good hosting material for producing nanoparticles due to its unique property of ionic gelation. Chitosan has disadvantages such as low solubility at physiological pH, causing the metabolism of core material in the intestine and gastric juice. To overcome these limitations, various chitosan derivatives such as carboxylated, thiolated, and acylated chitosan have been studied. This review focuses on the changes in the physicochemical properties of chitosan nanoparticles with the introduction of hydrophobic groups, the application of functional nanocapsules as coatings, and their applicability in the food sector. The physicochemical modification of chitosan is expected to be an attractive research field for the development of chitosan applications for food as well as for improving bioavailability in functional food.

  • 생물공학기술을 이용하여 제품과 서비스를 창출하는 산업을 생물산업이라고 한다. 우리나라는 1999년부터 산업자원부가 생물산업의 범위를 8개 부문으로 분류하고 있으나 산업분류와 제품 분류, 기술 분류의 기준이 섞여 있어 통계자료를 이용한 현황 파악이 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 생물산업의 현황 파악을 위해 한국생물산업협회의 매출조사자료를 근거로 하였다. 국내 생물산업제품의 상당수가 기존 산업의 수요구조를 따르는 것으로 가정하고 1985-90-95년의 접속불변산업연관표에서 국내 생물산업분야를 생물의약분야, 생물화학분야, 바이오식품분야, 생물농업분야, 생물공정 및 환경분야의 6개 분야로 분류ㆍ선정하였다. 1985년에서 1995년 기간의 최종재수요구조, 중간재 수요구조, 수입구조 등의 변화가 산출액 변화에 미친 기여도를 분석하기위해 변화요인을 크게 경제성장에 의한 효과와 수요구조변화에 의한 효과로 나눈 후 수요구조변화에 Syrquin 구조분해모형을 이용하였다. 분석결과 생물산업의 세부 각 분야들은 다양한 성장배경을 가지고 있으며 바이오식품과 생물농업분야를 제외한 생물산업분야는 사회적 수요가 성장을 이끌어왔음을 확인하였다. 또한 각 분야별 민간수요변화에 대한 대응과 수입ㆍ수출구조의 개선이 산업 성장에 필요함을 알 수 있었다.

  • To identify plant-derived cell signaling inhibitors with antifungal properties, a twocomponent screening system using both wild-type Cryptococcus neoformans and a calcineurin mutant was employed owing to their counter-regulatory actions on the Hog1 mitogenactivated protein kinase and calcineurin pathways. Of the 2,000 plant extracts evaluated, a single bioactive compound from M. obovata Thunb. was found to act specifically on the calcineurin pathway of C. neoformans. This compound was identified as magnoloside A, and had potent antifungal activities against various Cryptococcus strains with minimum inhibitory concentration values ranging from 1.0 to 4.0 μg/ml.

  • 수산업은 수산물의 남획, 국가 간의 제한, 기후변화로 인하여 수산물 개체 수 감소 등으로 전 세계 수산물 생산량이 정체되면서, 양식업은 항상 세계 식량 소비를 위해 오랫동안 지속되어온 패러다임을 뒤집고 인류가 바다, 호수, 강의 풍부함을 새로운 방식으로 확장할 수 있도록 하는 '푸른 혁명'의 가능성을 제시하고 있다. 양식산업은 이제 인간 소비를 위한 해산물의 원료로서 해양에서 얻는 어업생산량의 절반이상을 넘어섰다. 지속 가능한 양식산업의 발전을 위하여 다양한 최신 생물학적 연구 방법들이 적용되고 있다. 유전체학은 2011년 대서양 대구의 염기서열이 규명된 이래 최근 상당한 진전을 이루었으며 더 많은 종의 유전체가 해독되어 우수 형질의 육종 및 번식 기술, 질병 저항성 품질 개량, 양식 사료 및 사료방식의 최적화 등 양식산업을 위한 보다 견고하고 생산적인 지식 기반을 제공한다. 본 리뷰는 수산양식종의 유전체 연구를 위한 유전체 분석 기술과 수산양식종의 유전체 연구의 현황에 대해서 살펴보았다. 이와 같이 유전체 분석 기술과 유전체학의 발전은 수산양식산업의 과제를 해결하는 데 중요하며 지속 가능한 어업과 양식에 도움을 줄 것이다.

  • Open innovation is based on a different knowledge landscape, with a different logic about the sources and uses of technologies. It implies that firms increasingly rely on external sources of innovation by emphasizing these ideas and resources. Using datasets from the UK biotechnology industry, this paper explores firms' willingness to participate in open innovation. The results indicate that the switching cost is identified as the direct predictor of the willingness to participate in open innovation. While high commitment based on the trust with partner increases switching costs, IT infrastructure within the firm decreases switching costs to open innovation. Taken together, this research broadens the study on open innovation by applying the switching cost as a medium of knowledge transfer in the biotech industry.
