A yeast treatment process was applied to treat food processing organic wastewater containing inhibitory material to anaerobic bacteria. The wastewater contained high concentration of the furfural as a by-product from the food processing. Aerobic yeast (Candida utilis) was selected to remove organics in wastewater. The batch test showed that the wastewater had an inhibition to anaerobic bacteria. The optimum level of temperature for yeast treatment was ranged from 25 to 45$^{\circ}C$. The pH range from 4 to 8 was favorable to yeast growth. The continuous flow reactor was operated at various SRTs. The results were satisfactory with the reduction of COD up to 90％ at SRT of more than 1 day. Through the kinetic study of the yeast, the remained COD concentration was mainly caused by the formation of soluble microbial product (SMP).

조개류의 먹이생물인 미세조류를 대체할 수 있는 효모를 개발하기 위하여 빵효모 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), Candida utilis, Klyveromyces fragilis 3종류의 효모를 대상으로 그 먹이효율을 실험하였다. 이들 3종류의 효모를 세포벽을 75, 50, 25% 제거한 것과 세포벽을 제거하지 않은 효모로 구분하여 Artemia를 대상으로 먹이효율을 조사한 후 가장 좋은 먹이효율을 보인 C. utilis를 조개류의 대표적 먹이생물인 Isoch교sis galbana 와 함께 진주담치 유생을 대상으로 먹이효율을 조사하였다. Artemia 실험결과 빵효모보다 C. utilis, K. fragilis가 높은 생존율과 성장을 보였으며 세포벽을 제거한 것이 제거하지 않은 것보다 유의적으로 높은 생존율을 보였다. Artemia의 생존율은 75%와 50% 세포벽을 제거한 것이 25%에 비해 유의적으로 높은 생존율을 보였다. 성장은 유의적이지는 않지만 전체적으로 세포벽을 많이 제거할수록 성장과 생존율은 높은 경향이었다. 이와같이 Artemia의 경우는 세포벽을 제거한 C. utilis가 더 좋은 먹이효율을 보인 것은 Artemia는 효모의 세포벽을 소화시키지 못하기 때문으로 판단 할 수 있다. 진주담치 유생의 먹이로 C. utilis를 공급한 경우 성장에 있어서 세포벽을 제거한 효모를 50% 대체한 실험구의 먹이효율이 가장 좋았으며 세포벽을 벗기지 않은 효모의 경우 I. galbana에 비해 낮은 결과를 보였다. 진주담치 유생에 있어서도 세포벽을 제거한 C. utilis를 공급한 것은 대조구인 I. galbana와 생존율에 있어 유의성이 없었다. 그리고 25% 세포벽을 제거한 것을 공급한 실험구는 유의적으로 낮은 생존율을 보였다. 각장 성장의 경우 75% 세포벽을 제거한 것은 대조구인 I. galbana와 유의성이 없었다. 세포벽을 제거한 C. utilis와 I. galbana를 1:1로 혼합하여 공급한 실험의 경우 생존율에 있어서는 세포벽을 50%, 75% 제거한 C. utilis를 50% 첨가한 실험구는 대조구인 I. galbana 100%를 공급한 것과 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 그러나 성장의 경우는 I. galbana 에 세모벽을 75% 제거한 C. utilis를 1:1로 혼합한 실험구에서 각장 179.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$, 각고 150.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 가장 높았고 대조구인 I. galbana 100%와는 유의적인 차이를 보였다.

Yeast strains with good sensory properties were selected, and those yeasts were subjected to mutation to develop high glutathione producing yeasts. In addition, the antiradical activity and flavoring effect of the yeast extract were evaluated. A total of 68 strains were screened, and three strains of Saccharomyces utilis, four strains of Candida utilis, and one strain of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii were selected based on the flavoring effect. Among them, a random mutation was elicited against SEM-Y8, resulting in a high flavoring effect and growth rate. The glutathione production by SEM-Y8 increased 2.0-fold following the mutation, and the DPPH radical quenching effect of the SY8-M2-1-derived extract increased 3.2-fold compared to that of the wild type. The sensory properties of the SY8-M2-1-derived extract were better than those of garlic or onion extract in umami and mouthfulness. Thus, the SY8-M2-1 extract could be used as a functional flavoring material with improved antiradical activity.

The antifungal activities of the essential oils from Anthemis nobilis, Ciderus atlantica, Juniperus communis, Lavandula angustifolia, Pelargonium graveolens, Pogestemon patchouli, Rosmarinus officinalis, and Styrax tonkinensis which are recommended for the treatment of microbial infections in aromatherapy and complementary medicines were tested against Candida spp. The activities were measured by broth dilution method and disk diffusion assay. Most of the test oils inhibited growth of Candida albicans, C. utilis and C. tropicalis. Especially, the essential oil from Pelargonium graveolens and its main component, citronellol showed the strongest activity among the herbs except benzoic acid from Styrax tonkinensis which is well-known antimicrobial compound. As a result of checkerboard microtiter test. synergistic effect of citronellol, was shown when the component was combinated with ketoconazole, displaying a fractional inhibiting concentration (FIC) index of 0.37 against C. albicans.

Information on the effects of different yeast species on ruminal fermentation is limited. This experiment was conducted in a $3{\times}4$ factorial arrangement to explore and compare the effects of addition of three different live yeast species (Candida utilis 1314, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1355, and Candida tropicalis 1254) at four doses (0, $0.25{\times}10^7$, $0.50{\times}10^7$, and $0.75{\times}10^7$ colony-forming unit [cfu]) on in vitro gas production kinetics, fiber degradation, methane production and ruminal fermentation characteristics of maize stover, and rice straw by mixed rumen microorganisms in dairy cows. The maximum gas production (Vf), dry matter disappearance (IVDMD), neutral detergent fiber disappearance (IVNDFD), and methane production in C. utilis group were less (p<0.01) than other two live yeast supplemented groups. The inclusion of S. cerevisiae reduced (p<0.01) the concentrations of ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3$-N), isobutyrate, and isovalerate compared to the other two yeast groups. C. tropicalis addition generally enhanced (p<0.05) IVDMD and IVNDFD. The $NH_3$-N concentration and $CH_4$ production were increased (p<0.05) by the addition of S. cerevisiae and C. tropicalis compared with the control. Supplementation of three yeast species decreased (p<0.05) or numerically decreased the ratio of acetate to propionate. The current results indicate that C. tropicalis is more preferred as yeast culture supplements, and its optimal dose should be $0.25{\times}10^7$ cfu/500 mg substrates in vitro.

Autoclaved juices of common vegetables including cabbage were growth inhibitory to various microorganisms. Sensitivity of microorganisms to antimicrobial action of autoclaved vegetable juices was different depending on microbial strains. Lactic acid bacteria and Gram negative bacteria were less sensitive while non-lactic Gram positive bacteria and yeasts were very much sensitive to antimicrobial action of autoclaved cabbage juice(ACJ). Staphylococcus aureus and Candida utilis whose growth were completely inhibited in ACJ could grow in ACJ diluted with distilled water. This suggests that microorganisms were not able to grow in ACJ because of growth inhibitory compounds produced during heating but not because of the lack of nutrients. Cabbage juice heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for up to 30 min was not inhibitory while that heated at $121^{\circ}C$ for 5 min was. Heating temperature was an important parameter in generating growth inhibitory compound in heated cabbage juice.
