Since the 1980's, several kinds of inactivated bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) vaccines have been used to immunize domestic animals such as cattle and goat in Korea. Immunogenicity of the BVDV vaccines has been checked by the Korean Veterinary Authority using laboratory animals. In this study, we applied a molecular method to investigate the genetic characterization of the BVDV genes in six commercial inactivated BVDV vaccines, and determined the efficiency of two extraction reagents (i.e., sodium citrate or isopropyl myristate) to separate the vaccine antigens from the antigen/adjuvant complexes. Six partial non-coding regions (288 bp) were successfully amplified with specific primer sets, which demonstrated that sodium citrate is more efficient in extracting viral RNA from inactivated gel vaccines than isopropyl myristae. In addition, we identified the virus strains from the vaccines by analyzing the nucleotide sequences of the 5' non-coding region (NCR) of BVDV. The nucleotide similarity of the partial 5' NCR ranged from 95.1 to 100% among BVDV vaccine strains, respectively, indicating that a few manufacturers used different BVDV strains to produce their vaccines.

Six-hundred bacterial strains from human milk and milk from Sahiwal cows, Holstein Friesian cows, and buffaloes were screened for their ability to suppress phytopathogenic fungi under in vitro conditions. A consortium of 3 strains, viz., Bacillus lentimorbus B-30486 (B-30486), B. subtilis B-30487 (B-30487), and B. lentimorbus B-30488 (B-30488), isolated from Sahiwal cow milk resulted in better biological control and plant-growth promotion than single-strain treatments. For commercial-scale production of a bioinoculant, the solid-state fermentation of sugarcane agro-industrial residues, i.e., molasses, press mud, and spent wash, using the consortium of B-30486, B-30487, and B-30488, resulted in a value-added product, useful for enhancing plant growth. The application of the consortium to sugarcane fields infested with Fusarium moniliforme and Colletotrichum falcatum resulted in a reduction of mortality and significantly higher (P=0.05) plant height, number of tillers, and cane girth when compared with the control. Furthermore, under field conditions, the treatment of sugarcane with the consortium resulted in significantly (P=0.05) greater plant growth compared with nonbacterized plants. Accordingly, this is the first report on the effective use of bacteria isolated from milk for biological control and enhancing plant growth under field conditions. Furthormore, a solid-state fermentation technology was developed that facilitates the economic utilization of agro-industrial residues for environmental conservation and improving plant and soil health.

S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is a bioactive material used in the treatment of depression, osteoarthritis, and liver disease. To obtain lactic acid bacteria (LAB) producing high concentrations of SAM, LAB were isolated from commercial kimchi and from prepared kimchi products that contained shrimp jeotgal (fermented salty seafood) or sand lance jeotgal or that were fermented at 5 or $10^{\circ}C$, respectively, when pH was 4.2 to 4.8 and titratable acidity 0.6 to 0.9. Among the 179 LAB strains isolated from the fermented kimchi products, the genus Leuconostoc produced the highest intracellular level of SAM (1.58 mM) and Lactobacillus produced the second highest level (up to 1.47 mM) in the strain culture. This is the first study to quantify SAM in LAB isolated from fermented kimchi prepared by a general kimchi recipe. Ultimately, the selected strains (Leuconostoc mesentroides subsp. mesenteroides/dextranicum KSK417, L. mesentroides subsp. mesenteroides/dextranicum KJM401, and Lactobacillus bifermentans QMW327) could be useful as starters to manufacture fermented foods containing high levels of SAM.

A survey of the cholesterol content of eggs obtained from commercial sources in Korea was conducted. Eggs from 17 different strain birds were obtained from the Poultry Random Sample Test Station at Ansung, Kyonggi province. Yolk cholesterol contents, determined by the colorimetric procedure, were obtained from three consecutively laid eggs from birds of about 63 weeks of age. The overall mean of cholesterol value was 17.25 mg/g of wet yolk and ranged from 16.40 to 18.18 mg/g yolk. Analysis of t-test between white shell eggs and brown shell eggs showed no difference in cholesterol content: however, the white shell eggs were somewhat high in cholesterol (17.41 vs. 17.08 mg/g yolk). Significant differences (p<0.05) were found in yolk cholesterol contents among strains within the breed.

Activation bacteria, identified from commercial microbial products, were applied to leachate treatment. Total seven strains of bacteria Enterobacteriaceae spp. (5), Bacillus sp. (1), Aeromonas sp. (1) were seeded in the leachate and cultured in the shaking incubator at 25$^{\circ}$C and 250 rpm. While cultured, they were sampled in given time intervals and the removal rates of SS, COD, BOD, T-N.and T-P were measured an indicators of leachate treatment. Through the screening test, four of 7 strains of bacteria were considered to be effective and they were named as "effective group". The capability of leachate treatment was observed on three different groups of bacteria single, effctive, and total mixed. The result showed that the removal rates of COD and SS for the total mixed group were 64 and 71% respectively. BOD removal rate was reached nearly 99% by seeding of effective griup and removal rates of T-P and T-N were 83 and 82% respectively. However seeding of single strain was less effective than that of any mixed group in leachate treatment.

Four strains of yeasts were chosen from those isolated previously, and a strain from 160 isolates collected in this year were examined for the treatment of pulp waste liquor. Experiments about optimum nutrient condition, composition of cells, and reduction of B.O.D. on the "S" pulp industry waste liquor were performed with 5 strains. 1. The isolates(strain 112) was identified as Candida utilis. 2. The optium concentration of 4 components of nutrients were ($NH_4$)$SO_2$lg/l, yeast extract 70mg/l, $KH_2PO_4$ 300mg/l, and $MgSO_4{\ddot}7H_2O$ 500mg/l. 3. Specific growth ratio of Candida utilis KYRI 112 was 0.48/hr at optimum nutrient media and the yield was 0.45%(V/V). 4. Endomycopsis capsularis KYRI 613 contained more crude protein than the most of commercial yeasts. 5. The B.O.D. of waste liquor was reduced ro 20% of its value by the culture.e culture.

Thousand actinomycetes and 50 soil samples were used for the isolation of microorganisms producing yeast cell wall lytic enzymes. Among 493 strains producing large clear zones on autolysed washed yeast (AWY), 117 strains were selected on living yeast cell agar plates. With the method of lytic activity, one strain (St-1702) was selected, which was temporarily identified as Streptomyces eurythermus. The optimal condition for enzyme production of this strain was partially determined as follows: incubation of the strain for 3 days at 30$\circ$C in the medium containing 2% freeze dried yeast cell, 1% glucose, 1% K$_{2}$HPO$_{4}$, 0.01% MgSO$_{4}$'7H$_{2}$O, 0.5% peptone, and 0.2% (NH$_{4}$)$_{2}$CO$_{3}$ with pH 7.0. The protoplast formation of yeast by using the enzyme produced by this strain was compared with commercial enzymes.

Titanium and its alloys are technically superior and cost-effective materials, with a wide variety of aerospace, industrial, marine, and commercial applications. In this study, the effects of titanium ions on bacterial growth were evaluated. Six strains of bacteria known to be resistant to both metal ions and antibiotics were used in this study. Two strains, Escherichia coli ATCC 15489, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 10145, proved to be resistant to titanium ions. Plasmid-cured p. aeruginosa resulted in the loss of one or move resistance markers, indicating plasmid-encoded resistance. The plasmid profile of p. aeruginosa revealed the presence of a 23-kb plasmid. The plasmid was isolated and transformed into $DH5{\alpha}$. Interestingly, the untransformed $DH5{\alpha}$ did not grow in 300 mg/l titanium ions, but the transformed $DH5{\alpha}$ grew quite well under such conditions. The survival rate of the transformed $DH5{\alpha}$ also increased more than 3-fold compared to that of untransformed $DH5{\alpha}$.

참다래로 만든 'Hayward' 와인 제조에 적합한 효모 선발을 위해서 3종의 효모에 의한 발효과정에서의 물리화학적 특성 변화를 조사 분석하였다. 사용된 효모는 Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gervin No.5 strain (GVN), S. bayanus Lavin strain EC1118 (EC1118), 그리고 S. cerevisiae Red star Davis No.796 (No.796)은 와인 발효에 가장 적합하여 상업적으로 이용되고 있는 효모이다. 이 세 효모에 의해 발효된 샘플의 당도 함량은 비슷하게 감소하였으나, 알코올 생산량만 발효 첫 주에 큰 차이가 있었다. 효모중 GVN이 13.8%로 알콜농도가 가장 높았고, 반면에 No.796과 EC1118은 각각13.0%와 12.5%로 상대적으로 알콜함량이 낮았다. 관능평가에서 GVN은 높은 산과 높은 알콜함량을 가지고 있고, 강한 풍미와 쓴맛을 가진 것으로 평가되었다. No.796은 GVN과 유사하지만 낮은 알콜함량과 함께 단맛이 있었다. EC1118은 높은 풍미, 단맛과 낮은 알콜함량으로 부드러운 맛으로 평가되었다. EC1118에 의해 발효된 와인 의 총페놀과 항산화 활성은 다른 효모보다 높았다. 따라서 본 연구에서EC1118이 최적의 효모로 선발되었다. 다른 2종의 효모를 사용한 참다래 발효 와인은 각각 다른 품질 특성을 나타내었다. EC1118효모는 참다래 발효에 가장 바람직한 특성을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 특성은 주로 총페놀과 항산화 활성과 같은 건강기능성과 높은 관능적 기호도를 가지고 있었다.
