1994년 1월부터 1994년 12월까지 광양만 대도주변 잘피밭에서 채집된 베도라치의 식성을 조사하였다. 베도라치는 잘피의 잎에 부착하여 서식하는 단각류(카프렐라류 및 옆새우류)를 주로 섭이하였으며, 그 외, 새우류, 등각류, 요각류, 갯지렁이류, 주걱벌레붙이류 등을 소량 섭이하였다. 베도라치는 성장함에 따라 섭이된 먹이생물의 조성 및 크기의 변동이 뚜렷하였다. 체장이 작은 크기군에서는 요각류를 주로 섭이하였으며, 체장이 증가하면서 단각류를 주로 섭이하였다. 대체적으로 계절에 관계없이 단각류인 옆새우류와 카프렐라류가 주로 섭이되었으나, 그들의 섭이 비율은 계절에 따라 변하였다. 가을에는 옆새우류가 휠씬 많이 섭이되었으며, 다른 계절에는 카프렐류가 더 많이 섭이되었다.

Over the last century the mercury (Hg) concentration in the environment has been increased by human activities with inputs from sources such as atmospheric deposition, urban runoff, and industrial effluents. Mercury can be transformed to methylmercury (MeHg) in anaerobic conditions by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) and sediments are the principal location for MeHg production in aquatic environments. Interest in bioaccumulation of Hg and MeHg into lower trophic levels of benthic and pelagic organisms stems from public health concerns as these organisms provide essential links for higher trophic levels of food chains such as fish and larger invertebrates. Fish consumption is the major exposure route of MeHg to humans. Recently, it was reported that blood samples in Korea showed much higher Hg levels (5-8 times) than those in USA and Germany. Although this brings much attention to Hg research in Korea, there are very few studies on Hg biogeochemical cycling and bioaccumulation in aquatic environments. Given the importance of Hg methylation and MeHg transfer through food chains in aquatic environments, it is imperative that studies should be done in much detail looking at the fate, transport, and bioaccumulation of Hg and MeHg in the environment. Moreover, there should be long-term monitoring plans in Korea to evaluate the environmental and health effects of Hg and MeHg.

본 연구는 말백합의 안정적인 인공종묘생산을 위해 먹이생물의 종류 및 공급량을 조사하였고, 일정기간 절식 후 먹이생물의 재공급에 따른 영향을 관찰하였다. 유생의 먹이생물은 I. galbana, C. calcitrans, N. oculata를 혼합하거나 단독으로 공급할 경우 C. calcitrans를 D형 유생 1개체당 3,000-5,000 세포를 공급하는 것이 가장 효과적이었다. D형 유생을 일정기간 절식 후 먹이생물을 공급한 경우 먹이생물을 공급한 시점부터 4일째에 평균각장 $192.5{\mu}m$ 이상의 침착기 유생으로 성장하였다. 생존율은 절식기간이 길수록 낮아지는 경향을 보였다.

두줄망둑 자치어기의 먹이생물을 조사하기 위하여 2012년 5월말부터 6월초 사이에 충남 서천군 서면 도둔리의 조간대에서 채집된 두줄망둑의 위내용물을 조사하였다. 섭식참여율은 낮 동안에 오전과 오후에 각각 한 차례씩 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 두줄망둑의 자치어의 주요 먹이생물은 copepods, amphipods, shrimp larvae, polychaete larvae 등이었으며, 이들이 건중량의 2% 이상을 차지하였다. 그중에서 copepods가 평균 65.5%로 가장 많은 양을 차지하였고, polychaete larvae, shrimp larvae 등의 순으로 많이 출현하였다. 먹이생물의 개체수 조성비를 보면, copepods가 65.4%를 차지하여 가장 높았고, polychaete larvae는 22.6%, shrimp larvae는 14.5%를 차지하였다. 먹이생물 중 copepods는 개체수 조성비가 높고 출현율도 높아서, IRI가 5,369.3으로 가장 높은 수치를 나타내었고, polychaete larvae는 653.1, shrimp larvae는 287.1의 수치를 나타내었다. 따라서 두줄망둑의 자치어기의 가장 중요한 먹이생물은 copepods, polychaete larvae, shrimp larvae 등이었다.

S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is an important metabolic intermediate in living organisms and participates in many reactions as a methyl group donor. SAM has been used as a dietary supplement and is proposed to have beneficial effects on the liver and brain. The aim of this study was to find lactic acid bacteria with high SAM-producing ability to be used as SAM enhancing probiotics. We used high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to quantify the amount of SAM produced, and found that Bifidobacterium bifidum BGN4 produced a significantly higher amount of SAM than other Bifidobacterium or Lactobacillus strains. The effect of various carbon and nitrogen sources on SAM production was examined. This study confirmed that Bifidobacterium may be utilized as a source of SAM in the functional food industry.

Wild propionibacteria isolated from different commercial swiss cheese samples were tested for antimicrobial activities. In initial screening, six of these Propionibacterium isolates showed antagonistic activity against 10 selected indicator organisms by the deferred method. In next, only two Propionibacterium strains JW6 and JW14 showed antibacterial activity in the cell-free supernatants by the modified well diffusion method. Propionibacterium strains JW6 and JW14 were finally identified as bacteriocin producers which exhibited a bactericidal effect against closely related species. The antimicrobial substances were proteins, since their activities were completely destroyed following several degradative enzyme treatments. The bacteriocins showed a narrow inhibitory spectrum of activity against two propionibacteria and two bacilli of strains tested in this study.

In order to develovpment of new sterilizing method applied to food industry, effects of ozone treatment on microorganisms, associated with food hygiene were investigated. Microorganisms were immersed in water and sparged with ozonised air(ozone concentration, 3mg liter-1) at an air flow rate of 5 liter min-1. When organisms were treated with benzoic acid and sorbic acid of 0.4∼1.0g/$\ell$, respectively, they were not dectable perfectly. Sodium benzoate had an effect on Penicillium islandicum. When bacteria were sparged with ozonised air, Pseudomonas aeruginosa completely inhibited at 60 minutes, and the killing Aspergillus flavus and Penicillium islandicum. Also, all of bacteria were inactivated after immersed with ozonated water for 10minutes, but two fungal species were not effective.

Antimicrobial coating on chicken carcasses may reduce the effects of cross-contamination and improve product shelf-life and safety. Thyme oil was mixed at 0.5%(v/v) with a pre-gelatinized pea starch coating solution. The coating solution was spread on chicken breast meat after inoculation with selected spoilage and pathogenic bacteria. After inoculation, the chicken meats were packaged in plastic bags and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. During 12 day storage, total aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and inoculated organisms were counted at 4 day intervals. Thyme oil treatments reduced the viability of Salmonella as well as the growth of Listeria and Pseudomonas by 2 log CFU/g, and appeared to eliminate inoculated Campylobacter during storage. The addition of thyme oil increased the viscosity of the pre-gelatinized pea starch solution. The results suggested that thyme oil inclusion in an edible starch coating may be a satisfactory delivery system to enhance the safety of processed fresh meat.

Much of the progress in genetic engineering has been accomplished by employing Escherichia coli as the host organism. For many reasons, however, some other organisms have greater potential as alternatives to E. coli. In particular, streptomycetes are attractive organisms as hosts especially for the producation of various secondary metabolites such as antibiotics. In this article, therefore, we reviewed the techniques for development of vector system and expression of genes for antibiotic biosynthesis in streptomycete hosts.

Habitat heterogeneity can enhance biological diversity by providing variation in structural diversity. This paper reviewed heterogeneous habitat serves as a population stability and superior demographic performance (e.g., high density, survivorship, reproductive rate) can be observed compared with organisms with inferior demographic performance. The idea of habitat variation has been further developed in modelling. Furthermore the size and configuration (distribution) of a patch (of a particular habitat type) become effective for the stability of population through hiding places and food resources. Species diversity is related to habitat complexity that provides structural diversity to ground -dwelling organisms. Finally coarse woody debris can enhance habitat complexity thus stabilizing population fluctuation and increasing survivorship.
