Kefir로부터 1차적으로 평판배양법을 이용하여 생장이 가장 우수한 효모를 분리하였고, 이 균은 API 20C kit를 이용한 당발효성 결과에서 99.8%의 상동성을 가진 Candida kefyr로 동정되었다. Candida kefyr 균주는 효소기질을 첨가하여 굳힌 PDA 평판 실험에서 특히 phytase 와 amylase의 분비능력이 높은 것으로 관찰되었고 cellulase와 xylanase, protease 활성은 낮게 나타났다. 균체를 균질화하여 효소활성을 측정하였을 때, amylase와 phytase, cellulase 활성이 0.339±1.12, 0.052±0.88, 0.051±0.78 μmole/min/mg로 비교적 높은 활성을 보였다. Candida kefyr는 pH2에서 초기균수의 0.7%로 감소되는 것으로 보이나 Saccharomyces cerevisiae보다는 약 100배 정도 높게 생존하는 것으로 나타나 내산성이 비교적 강한 것으로 판단되었다. Candida kefyr는 1.0%의 bile salt의 존재하에서도 초기 균수의 약 97.2%를 유지하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 86.1%인 Saccharomyces cerevisiae 보다 내담즙산에 강한 것으로 나타났다. 열 안정성을 측정한 경우는 Candida kefyr는 60℃에서 5.0×109 CFU/ml 정도로 약 35.7%가 잔존하는 것으로 조사되었으며 Saccharomyces cerevisiae 보다는 10배 이상 높은 내열성을 유지하였다. 13가지의 항생제중 Candida kefyr의 항생제 내성을 측정한 경우는 10ppm neomycin과 150ppm 이상의 clopidol에서는 억제되었으나 11가지 항생제에는 억제되지 않는 내성을 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 본 연구에서 분리된 Candida kefyr 균주는 강한 내산성 및 내열성과 항생제 내성을 나타냈으며 소화관련 효소의 활성들도 높게 나타나 가축용 생균제로 충분히 유용성이 있는 것으로 사료되었다.

The objective of the present study was to determine whether ${\beta}$1-4 galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) and Candida kefyr combined with nitrate as manipulators could suppress rumen methanogenesis without nitrate poisoning in sheep. Four rumen fistulated wethers were allocated to a $4{\times}4$ Latin square design. Nitrate (1.3 g $NaNO_3$ $Kg^{-0.75}$body weight) with and without GOS and Candida kefyr were administered into the rumen through fistula as a single dose 30 min after the morning meal. GOS and Candida kefyr were supplemented by sprinkling onto the feed and through rumen fistula, respectively. The four treatments consisted of saline, nitrate, nitrate plus GOS and nitrate plus GOS plus Candida kefyr. Physiological saline was used as the control treatment. Compared to saline treatment, the administration of nitrate alone resulted in a very marked decrease in rumen methanogenesis and an increase in rumen and plasma nitrite production and blood methaemoglobin formation consequently causing a decline in oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production and metabolic rate. When compared to nitrate alone, the simultaneous administration of nitrate with GOS decreased nitrite accumulation in rumen and plasma and nitrate-induced methaemoglobin, while retaining low methane production. However, GOS could not fully restore metabolic parameters reduced by nitrate. When compared to the simultaneous administration of nitrate with GOS, the simultaneous administration of nitrate with GOS plus Candida kefyr lowered rumen methanogenesis to a negligible level, but did not decrease rumen and plasma nitrite accumulation as well as blood methaemoglobin formation. Thus, these results suggest that combination of nitrate with GOS may be a potent manipulator to suppress rumen methanogenesis with abating the hazards of nitratenitrite toxicity in ruminants.

This examined some conditions for the induction of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis in Candida kefyr CBS 834. The optimal pH, temperature, and inoculum size either for growth or${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis were 5.5, $30^{\circ}C$ and above 0.2 at A610nm, respectively. Enzyme activity began to increase at 2h after the addition of inducer, and continued to increase linearly up to $2{\sim}3h$ before reaching stationary phase, and thereafter its activity was decreased. ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase was induced either by lactose or galactose but not either by glucose or ethanol. The greater activity of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase on galactose than on lactose indicated that the former might be natural inducer for ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis. The rate of its induction as a function of lactose concentration showed that enzyme activity increased linearly above 4mM, while it was very low below that. Glucose represed the induction of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase, and the period of adaptation to inducer from other carbon sources was relatively short.

The abatement of methane emission from ruminants is an important global issue due to its contribution to greenhouse gas with carbon dioxide. Methane is generated in the rumen by methanogens (archaea) that utilize metabolic hydrogen ($H_2$) to reduce carbon dioxide, and is a significant electron sink in the rumen ecosystem. Therefore, the competition for hydrogen used for methanogenesis with alternative reductions of rumen microbes should be an effective option to reduce rumen methanogenesis. Some methanogens parasitically survive on the surface of ciliate protozoa, so that defaunation or decrease in protozoa number might contribute to abate methanogenesis. The most important issue for mitigation of rumen methanogenesis with manipulators is to secure safety for animals and their products and the environment. In this respect, prophylactic effects of probiotics, prebiotics and miscellaneous compounds to mitigate rumen methanogenesis have been developed instead of antibiotics, ionophores such as monensin, and lasalocid in Japan. Nitrate suppresses rumen methanogenesis by its reducing reaction in the rumen. However, excess intake of nitrate causes intoxication due to nitrite accumulation, which induces methemoglobinemia. The nitrite accumulation is attributed to a relatively higher rate of nitrate reduction to nitrite than nitrite to ammonia via nitroxyl and hydroxylamine. The in vitro and in vivo trials have been conducted to clarify the prophylactic effects of L-cysteine, some strains of lactic acid bacteria and yeast and/or ${\beta}$1-4 galactooligosaccharide on nitrate-nitrite intoxication and methanogenesis. The administration of nitrate with ${\beta}$1-4 galacto-oligosaccharide, Candida kefyr, and Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis were suggested to possibly control rumen methanogenesis and prevent nitrite formation in the rumen. For prebiotics, nisin which is a bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis has been demonstrated to abate rumen methanogenesis in the same manner as monensin. A protein resistant anti-microbe (PRA) has been isolated from Lactobacillus plantarum as a manipulator to mitigate rumen methanogenesis. Recently, hydrogen peroxide was identified as a part of the manipulating effect of PRA on rumen methanogenesis. The suppressing effects of secondary metabolites from plants such as saponin and tannin on rumen methanogenesis have been examined. Especially, yucca schidigera extract, sarsaponin (steroidal glycosides), can suppress rumen methanogenesis thereby improving protein utilization efficiency. The cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), or cashew shell oil, which is a natural resin found in the honeycomb structure of the cashew nutshell has been found to mitigate rumen methanogenesis. In an attempt to seek manipulators in the section on methane belching from ruminants, the arrangement of an inventory of mitigation technologies available for the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) in the Kyoto mechanism has been advancing to target ruminant livestock in Asian and Pacific regions.

Abatement of greenhouse gas emitted from ruminants and promotion of biogas energy from animal effluent were comprehensively examined in each anaerobic fermentation reactor and animal experiments. Moreover, the energy conversion efficiency of biomass energy to power generation were evaluated with a gas engine generator or proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). To mitigate safely rumen methanogenesis with nutritional manipulation the suppressing effects of some strains of lactic acid bacteria and yeast, bacteriocin, $\beta$1-4 galactooligosaccharide, plant extracts (Yucca schidigera and Quillaja saponarea), L-cysteine and/or nitrate on rumen methane emission were compared with antibiotics. For in vitro trials, cumulative methane production was evaluated using the continuous fermented gas qualification system inoculated with the strained rumen fluid from rumen fistulated Holstein cows. For in vivo, four sequential ventilated head cages equipped with a fully automated gas analyzing system were used to examine the manipulating effects of $\beta$1-4 galactooligosaccharide, lactic acid bacteria (Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides), yeast (Trichosporon serticeum), nisin and Yucca schidigera and/or nitrate on rumen methanogenesis. Furthermore, biogas energy recycled from animal effluent was evaluated with anaerobic bioreactors. Utilization of recycled energy as fuel for a co-generator and fuel cell was tested in the thermophilic biogas plant system. From the results of in vitro and in vivo trials, nitrate was shown to be a strong methane suppressor, although nitrate per se is hazardous. L-cysteine could remove this risk. $\beta$1-4 galactooligosaccharide, Candida kefyr, nisin, Yucca schidigera and Quillaja saponarea are thought to possibly control methanogenesis in the rumen. It is possible to simulate the available energy recycled through animal effluent from feed energy resources by making total energy balance sheets of the process from feed energy to recycled energy.
