Those factors were :carbon and nitrogen sources, methionine effect, absorbent effect, fermentation variables in a batch fermentation variables in a batch fermentation, effect of reuse of its cellular biomass as a reusable nutrient, and 2, 4-dinitrophenol effect on cephalosprin C production.

Cephalosporin-C deacetylase (CAH) catalyzes the deacetylation of cephalosporin derivatives. A novel gene encoding the CAH from Bacillus sp. KCCM10143 was cloned and sepuenced. The uncleotide sequence contained an open reading frame encoding a polypeptide consisting of 217 amino acids and a molecular weight of 24 kDa which was in good agreement with the value obtained by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. An expression plasmid was constructed by inserting the CAH gene into the region of the pTrc99A expression vector. An active from of the CAH protein was expressed in the soluble fraction obtained after cell disruption. in fermentation using a 5-1 jar fementer, the transformant E. coli JM109 (pDST654) produced 4.12 U of CAH per ml of culture during 16 h of incubation.

The results of chromosome aberration test in mammalian cells in culture (Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cells) showed no induction of structural and numerical aberrations by YH1226, a cephalosporin antibiotic regardless of metabolic activation, while positive control group (mitomycin C and benzo(a)pyrene) showed structural chromosome aberrations of 25% and 10%, respectively. The in vivo induction of micronuclei was measured in polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow of male ddY mouse given YH1226 at 500, 250, 125 mg/kg by i.p. once. After 24 hours, animals were sacrificed and evaluated for the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in whole erythrocytes. Although a positive response for induction of micronuclei in animals treated with mitomycin C demonstrated the sensitivity of the test system for detection of a chemical clastogen, YH1226 did not induce microunclei in bone marrow of ddY male mice.

The objective of this study is to improve cephalosporin C (CPC) production byoptimization of medium and culture conditions. A statistical method was introduced to optimize the main culture medium. The main medium for CPC production was optimized using a statistical method. Glucose and corn steep liquor (CSL) were found to be the most effective factors for CPC production. Glucose and CSL were optimized to 2.84 and $6.68\%$, respectively. CPC produc­tion was improved $50\%$ by feeding of $5\%$ rice oil at day 3rd and 5th day during the shake flask culture of C acremonium M25. The effect of agitation speeds on CPC production in a 2.5-L bio­reactor was also investigated with fed-batch mode. The maximum cell mass (54.5 g/L) was obtained at 600 rpm. However, the maximum CPC production (0.98 g/L) was obtained at 500 rpm. At this condition, the maximum CPC production was improved about $132\%$ compared to the re­sult with batch flask culture.

An immobilized Trigonopsis variabilis cells having an high activity of D-amino acid oxidase(DAO) was used to convert CPC into GL-7-ACA. The optimal pH of the reaction system was 8.0-8.5, and the optimal temperature was 40$\circ$C. When immobilized cell was used repeatedly in semi-batchwise reaction, the system retained 80% of the initial activity after used of 12 times for over 12 hours. The storage stability of the immobilized cell was maintained for 30 days at 4$\circ$C. The CPC concentration for the maximal reaction rate was about 30 mM and 40 mM for free and immobilized cells, respectively. Substrate inhibition of CPC concentration more than 50 mM was overcomed by 20~25% by immobilization. Pure oxygen supply into reaction system was most efficient in D-amino acid oxidase reaction. Continuous conversion to GL-7-ACA from CPC has been developed with an bioreactor system containing immobilized T variabilis cells. By opera- tion of the reactor for 5 hours, the average conversion yield of >80% and GL-7-ACA production of 40~45 mM per hour could be obtained.

Supplementation with rice oil and its major components (oleic acid and linoleic acid) was found to have a significant influence on cephalosporin C (CPC) production and cell growth by A. chrysogenum M35 in shake flask cultures. Five percent (v/v) rice oil had the most robust effect and 5% (v/v) oleic acid was the second most efficient on cell growth, whereas 3% (v/v) linoleic acid was found to be optimal for CPC production. Rice oil, oleic acid, and linoleic acid also significantly improved the rates of glucose consumption. When glucose was almost consumed, CPC production was initiated and, on the addition of rice oil, lipase activity increased steadily to 1.56 U/ml for 4 days. These results suggest that rice oil and fatty acids are used as carbon source to produce CPC by A. chrysogenum M35. Moreover, a mixture, composed of 40% (v/v) oleic acid and 60% (v/v) linoleic acid, had the strongest stimulatory effect on CPC production, due to a synergistic effect of the two fatty acids. Consequently, the maximum CPC titer (7.44 g/l) was improved about 4.5-fold.

Cephalosporium acremonium MAR-80, a strain of methionine analogue-resistant mutant, showed good activity of sulfate utilization as only sulfur source. The effect of methionine on the sulfate uptake system was investigated by using $Na_{2}^{35}SO_{4}$ as a tracer in the resting cell system. From this result, it was revealed that sulfate permease of this strain was less repressed and/or less inhibited by methionine than parent type. This deregulation was due to low actibity of methionine uptake, which was operated by somewhat simple diffusion. From these studies, it could by anticipated that the improved productivity of cephalosporin C and lower dependence of cephalosporin C production on methionine were related to increased uptake rate of sulfate.

Using the polyclonal antibody for Xanthomonas citri ampicillin acylase raised in Pseudomonas-free Balb/c mice, the immunochemical similarity of several types of penicillin acylases including Erwinia aroideae penicillin V acylase, Escherichia coli penicillin G acylase, Pseudomonas melanogenum and Acetobacter turbidans ampicillin acylases, and Pseudomonas cephalosporin acylase was examined. Among tested, only P. melanogenum ampicillin acylase showed the cross-reactivity with the antibody.

To formulate the parenteral delivery of a new cephalosporin derivative, 7-${\beta}$-[(2)-2-(2-arninothiazol-4-yl)-2methoxyiminoacetamido]- 3- [(2,3-cyclopenteno-4-carbamoyl-l-pyridinium)methyl]- 3-cephem-4-carboxylate sulfate( CKD604), the stability and solubility of CKD-604 in various aqueous media were investigated. The degradation kinetics of CKD-604 in aqueous solutions (ionic strength 0.1, pH 1-8) were studied at $37^{\circ}C$. The observed degradation rates followed pseudo first order kinetics. The pH-rate profile exhibited a minimum degradation rate at pH 5. The Arrhenius activation energy was 14.2 kcal/mol in pH 5 buffer solution. Excellent agreement between the cephalosporins' theoretical pH-rate profile and the experimental data indicated that the degradation pathway of CKD-604 could be predicted according to the general pathway of cephalosporins. The solubility of CKD-604 was 8.16 mg/ml at $25^{\circ}C$. To enhance the solubility and adjust the suitable pH, CKD-604 was solubilized by using sodium ascorbate, ascorbic acid and urea. The compositions were obtained to satisfy optimum pH and concentration, and the total amount of additives was several times of the active ingredient, CKD-604.
