  • This study was performed to get the basic information concerned to the optimum culture condition of Inonotus obliquus. Several solid media, PDA, MEA and Czapek-Dox, and three liquid media were adopted for the in vitro cultivation. Some main features of the fungal morphological characteristics under cultivation conditions were observed and described. Preliminary results showed that appearance of the mycelial mat, hyphal size and substrate pigmentation differed according to the media. The PDA medium was the most favorable substrate for the growth on solid culture, followed by MEA and Czapek-Dox media. Concerned to the addition of amino acids, 5 amino acids, such as alanine, alginine, isoleucine, leucine and threonine, enhanced to the mycelial growth. Isoleucine was shown the best fungal growth. An important morphological hyphal structure for the fungus, the setae, was found in abundance and diverse its shape and size. In liquid culture, fresh potato broth was the best growth stimulant of the fungus, followed by Malt extract and potato broth. Addition of yeast extract to the liquid media had improved the biomass, but not laccase production.

  • The production and the characteristics of protease produced by Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M were investigated under the different pH conditions. Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M showed the maximum activity of protease at 60 hours(70 units/ml) AND 96 houre(50 units/ml) cultivation, respectively, under the alkaline condition(pH 10.2). However, Bacillus sp. SH-8M exhibited the maximum activities in 8 days cultivation at pH 6.9 and in 6 days cultivation at pH 7.7 Bacillus sp. SH-8M showed the protease activity at the pH change from alkaline to neutral condition, whereas Bacillus sp. SH-8 did not. In addition. all the enzymatic characteristics of protease produced by Bacillus sp. SH-8 and Bacillus sp. SH-8M were similar with the regardless of different pH conditions.

  • Metabolic alterations of Cordyceps bassiana mycelium were investigated under the following culture medium and light conditions: dextrose agar supplemented with 0.5% yeast extract (SDAY) medium with light (SL), SDAY medium without light (SD), nut medium without light (ND), and iron-supplemented SDAY medium without light (FD). The levels of asparagine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glutamine, histidine, lysine, ornithine, and proline were significantly higher under SD and SL conditions. The levels of most of the alcohols, saturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids, fatty acid esters, sterols, and terpenes were higher under the ND condition than in the other conditions, but beauvericin was not detectable under the ND condition. The FD condition was favorable for the enhanced production of aminomalonic acid, malic acid, mannonic acid, and erythritol. Thus, the metabolic characteristics of C. bassiana can be manipulated by varying the cultivation conditions, rendering this fungus potentially favorable as a nutraceutical and medicinal resource.

  • This study investigates the meaning, the method of "Cultivation of the fundamental" as aim of child education in context of the Xing-Li-Xue(性理學) educational theory. Chu-hsi understood the meaning of "Cultivation of the fundamental" as Ching(敬, the cultivation of good nature in human mind). The method of "Cultivation of the fundamental" consists of quiet sitting(정좌), attention(주의집중), moral environment(도덕적 환경) and practicing propriety(예의 실습). Through quiet sitting and attention, learners may reach a condition of mind which is free of their selfish desires and in which they can find out their original nature. The education in Confucianism accepts the environment as a significant element in forming human personality. Making moral environment has leaners to take good value with ease. Characteristic of study in Xing-Li-Xue is to emphasize to observe concrete clauses of propriety. The reason why Xing-Li-Xue emphasizes propriety is that Mind Study may be maintained through Body Study. In conclusion, the "Cultivation of the fundamental" in the Xing-Li-Xue is to form the power to regulate selfish desires and thus behave more moderately. Along these points, not only quiet sitting which relexes the body and soul, but also song and dance are not considered as contrary to Xing-Li-Xue educational theory. The various ways of "Cultivation of the fundamental" of Xing-Li-Xue educational theory make people recognize, understand and experience good innate nature of human beings. And we can reach the conclusion that education of Xing-Li-Xue uses so many methods that learner can accept moral value as naturally as possible.

  • The conditions for color intensity and electron donating ability to $\alpha$,$\alpha$-diphenyl-$\beta$- picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) of Bacillus subtilis DC-2 were investigated. Temperature, pH and cultivation time were chosen as three factors, and the optimal conditions of color intensity and DPPH was determined with response surface methodology. Color intensity was affected by cultivation temperature(p<0.1). DPPH was influenced by cultivation temperature(p<0.05) and pH(p<0.1). But cultivation time was affected neither color in- tensity nor DPPH. Optimal conditions of color intensity with Bacillus subtilis DC-2 were appeared at cultivation temperature of 39.$25^{\circ}C$, pH 8.83 and cultivation time of 84.41hrs. Optimal conditions of DPPH with Bacillus subtilis DC-2 were revealed at cultivation temperature of 39.19$^{\circ}C$, pH 8.84 and cultivation time of 82.21hrs.

  • The result of isolated and selected to the strain having the emulsifying activity from soil's strain the strain was identified as Candida genus. The strain was investigated with culture condition at pH culture temperature, flow rate of air, strring rate etc., and physicochemical properties of the biosurfactant were examined. The optimum composition of medium for a strain cultivation were obtained as follow : glucose ; 100g/L, yeast extract ; 10g/L, urea ; 1.0g/L, KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$ ; 50mg/L, MgSO$_{4}$ ; 500mg/L, and the op condition of cultivation was as follow : pH ; 3.0, temperatlue ; 24$\circ $C, strring rate ; 40rpm. The maximum yield of biosurfactant was obtained by pH ; 3.0-3.5, and temperature ; 25$\circ $C. The degree of emulsification of syntesized biosurfactant was increased clearly by increasing concentration of biosurfactant and it's stability was maintained for a long time. The surface tension of biosurfactant was varied with pH, especially it was showed that the surface tension was high at acidic pH.

  • The water requirement of transplanting culture(TC) consisting of 16 plots and direct seeding culture in a well-drained paddy field(DC) also having 15 plots were measured in order to clarify the influence factors on water requirement. Each plot was maintained under different cultivation conditions. Those varied cultivation conditions were classified into 7 items. Subsequently, the relationship between water requirement and 7 items were analyzed by evaluating the average water requirement in each condition to clarify the items influencing water requirement. From the analysis of the results, the water requirement of DC was determined to be 3.5 times of the TC. Furthermore, water requirement in DC and TC were influenced mainly by ponding depth and locational condition respectively.

  • The nar promoter as an inducible promoter was characterized for the process development for the gene expression and the protein production under anaerobic condition. The LB medium was selected as a main culture medium showing the enzyme activity of 18,000 units/min/g cell in the flask cultivation. The optimum concentration of nitrate was 1%. Under anaerobic conditions, the gene expression was fully induced in the presence of nitrate.

  • The biological carbon dioxide fixation using microalgae has been known as an effective carbon dioxide reduction technology. With many environmental factors influencing microalgal productivity, the desirable cultivation factors were investigated using a green alga, Euglena gracilis. It has the high protein and vitamin E to be used as fodder. In batch culture with a photobioreactor, initial pH, temperature, carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity in the optimum cultivation condition were 3.5, $27^{\circ}C$,5-10% and $520{\mu}mol/m^2/s$, respectively. After that, the optimum hydraulic retention time (HRT for the continuous cultivation was 4 days at carbon dioxide concentration of 10%. In this condition, the final dry cell weight was 1.2g/l.
