Antibacterial activities of Chinese cabbage kimchi juice were determined against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538p, Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13076, Vibrio parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802 and Enterobater cloacae ATCC 13047. It was found out that 2% content of Chinese cabbage kimchi juice reduced the colony numbers of Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13076, Enterobater cloacae ATCC 13047, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538p and Vibrio parahemolyticus ATCC 17802 by 63%, 72%, 76% and 90%, respectively. 6% content of Chinese cabbage kimchi Juice completly inactivated Vibrio parahaemolyticus. But at the same content (6%) of Chinese cabbage kimchi juice, colony number of Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13076 Enterobater cloacae ATCC 13047 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538p were reduced to 11%, 10% & 9%, respectively.10% Chinese cabbage kimchi juice had 100% inhibitory effect on all test bacteria. Therefore, Chinese cabbage kimchi has effective antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538p, Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13076 Vibrio parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802 and Enterobacter cloacae ATCC 13047.

A strain of Enterobacter cloacae isolated from soil showed the evidence of growth in medium containing 1,500 ppm of Cd$\^$＋＋/ though its growth was inhibited at high cadmium concentrations. This strain accumulated 59％ of cadmium into the cells during incubation in medium containing 0.5 ppm of cadmium and its uptake was nearly proportional to the dry weight of cells, the average being 7.8 mg cadmium per g dry cells. It was also found that 60-70％ of cadmium accumulated in cells were distributed in the cell wall fraction.

The hydrogen-producing bacterium was isolated from fresh water and identified as Enterobacter cloacae. The isolated was named Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1. In batch culture, The optimum cultivation temperature and pH of strain YJ-1 was 35℃ and 7.5, respectively. All of the added glucose was consumed completely during fermentation even though pH was not controlled. Amount of hydrogen produced on each condition of 2% glucose, 4% sucrose and 5% fructose was 950, 1000 and 948 mL/L, respectively and resulted in increasing hydrogen production approximately 2.5-times more than controlled condition. The maximum hydrogen production was obtained when 50 mM phosphate was added. In repeated-batch culture, hydrogen gas of 1920 mL/L was totally produced for 48. The maximum hydrogen was produced on the condition of 0.5% yeast extract, but the production amount was not changed on the condition of over 0.5%. Most of the organic acids produced during the fermentation were formic and acetic acid, and propionic acid was moiety also generated.
