Variability in growth and sporulation of five isolates of Arthrobotrys dactyloides was studied on five agar, 6 bran and 5 grain media. Potato dextrose agar (PDA) supported maximum growth of isolate A, C and E, while growth of isolate Band D was significantly lower on this medium. On Czapek's agar and yeast glucose agar media the differentiation in the isolates in relation to growth was poor than PDA. The other two media showed much poorer differentiation. On Czapek's agar medium, sporulation was recorded in isolate B only, whereas other isolates showed rare sporulation. Among the bran media, pea bran agar medium supported maximum growth of all the isolates except isolate B. Gram and rice bran agar media were next best. However, the growth of isolate B on the gram bran agar medium was more or less equal as other isolates. On pigeon pea bran agar medium, isolate E failed to grow while other isolates recorded poor growth. On lentil bran agar medium, only isolate Band D recorded little growth, whereas other isolates failed to grow. All the isolates recorded good sporulation on bran agar media except pigeon pea and lentil bran agar media. The grain agar media supported moderate to very good growth of all the isolates. In general isolate B remained slow growing on these media except gram grain and sorghum grain agar media on which growth of this isolate was comparable to other isolates. Sporulation in general, was good on all the grain agar media. Among different substrates screened, barley grain and pea bran were found superior to others for mass culture of isolate A of A. dactyloides.

The effect of biotin on the growth and sporulation of Bacillus subtilis SNU816 was investigated. When B. subtilis SNU816 was cultured on glucose as a sole carbon source, the growth was retarded markedly and usually ceased at early log phawe. But by addition of biotin to this medium, normal, rapid growth was restored. The growth rate was increased proportionally according to the concentration of exogenous biotin until it reached to 0.05㎍/ml, at which about three fold rapid growth was achieved. Also biotin was required for optimum sporulation for it facilitated the complete utilization of both glucose(Glc) and glutamic acid(Glu). Without biotin in Glc+Glu medium, about 40% of glutamic acid was remained unutilized. The dipicolinic acid content of cells cultured in Glc+Glu medium without biotin was markedly small and sporulation was suppressed before free spore release. Since biotin could be partiallyreplaced by one of TCA cycle intermediates such as oxalacetic acid, citric acid, or glutamic acid in enhancing growth in Glc medium, it was postulated that this strain might have a defect in converting pyruvate to oxalacetate which process is known to be mediated by pyruvate carboxylase that requires biotin as a cofactor.

Temperature and medium composition were changed with the aim of increasing growth and erythropoietin (EPO) production in EPO-producing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. We used the CHO cell line, IBE, and its derivative, CO5, which over-expresses the first two enzymes of the urea cycle, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I (CPS I) and ornithine transcar-bamoylase (OTC). When supplements were added to the medium at $33\;^{\circ}C$, the growth of IBE and CO5 cells increased by $27\%\;and;26\%$, respectively and the maximum yield of EPO was increased by $40\%$ in both cell lines. The absolute EPO concentration in the CO5 cells was always $55{\sim}60\%$ higher than in the IBE cells. In addition, when the two cell lines were continuously cultured with supplements at $33\;^{\circ}C$ until their growth rates approached those at $37\;^{\circ}C$, the growth rates of both IBE and CO5 cells increased by $54\%$ and their maximum EPO levels increased by up to $73\%\;and\;56\%$, respectively. Therefore, the growth and EPO expression levels of CO5 cells increased 2.2-fold and 2.6-fold, respectively, compared to those of the IBE cells. These results indicate that adaptation to lower temperature as well as medium supplementation could be important for improving cell growth and EPO production.

When S. fradiae was cultured in S medium, it stavted to produce neomycin in the middle of stationary phase of growth. Antibitoic production is regulated not only by glucose but also by metabolites formed from glucose. A chemically defined minimal salt broth was developen for the study of metabolites activating produition of antibiotic in a neomycin producer. When growth and production or antibiotic in minimal salt broth was examined with a full grown or a vefctativc mycelium, the medium was found not to be good for the growth, but to be good enough for the production of antibiotic with a full grown mycelium. When many carbotlydrates, organic acids, or alcohol were supplmented with instead of glucose in the medium suspcndcn with a full grown mycelium, the amount of antibiotic produced in the medium containing fumaratc was 5 times more than that in the medium with glucose. Further study indicated that the medium is not good also for the growth but good for the production of antibiotic. The antibiotic produced in this medium was identified to be neomycin. The activation of the production of neomycin by fumarate was further confirmed in a complex medium. Fuinarate is suspected to initiate and to activate the biosynthesis of neomycin at the gene level.

Mycelial growth of L. edodes by supplement nutrition of softwood was studied on a sawdust medium. The sawdust used was from the following softwood species : Larix leptolepis, Pinus densiflora and Pinus koraiensis. The added nutritions consisted of carbon nutritions(sucrose, active carbon, xylose, glucose, paper pellet), nitrogen nutritions(potassium nitrate, ammonium chloride, asparagine, glutamic acid) and vegetable oil(rice bran oil). The sawdust medium was a mixture of 76% sawdust, 20% rice bran, 3% carbon nutrition, 0.4% nitrogen nutrition and 0.6% calcium carbonate. Following addition of carbon and nitrogen nutritions on the sawdust medium proved most suitable : L. leptolepis (glucose, glutamic acid), P. densiflora (active carbon, asparagine) and P. koraiensis (xylose, glutamic acid). The highest mycelial growth was obtained from sawdust medium of optimum condition with 97% of L. leptolepis, 110% of P. densiflora and 98% of P. koraiensis. This study has provided useful preliminary information for the cultivation of L. edodes.

CHO 세포를 0.5%, 1 %. 2%, 3%, 4% 및 5% 놓도의 FBSd를 함유한 MEMa 배지에 $1{\times}10^4cells/\textrm{cm}^2 와 2{\times}10^4cells/\textrm{cm}^2$의 초기 농도로 정치배양하여 세포 성장과 EPO 생산 특성을 조사하였다. 혈청 농도와 접종 농도를 증가시킴에 따라 세포 증식 속도와 최대 세포 농도가 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 적절한 혈청 농도의 선택이 세포 성장의 최적화에 필 요하다고 할 수 있다. 세포 성장 도중에 무혈청배지로 교환한 결과 세포 성장과 EPO 생산이 증가되었다. 배지를 교환하지 않았을 경우 세포 성장이 최대 ($2.1{\times}10^5cells/\textrm{cm}^2$)에 도달된 후 급격히 세포농도가 감소하는 높은 사멸율을 보이고, EPO의 최대 농도 도 2,380units/mL에 불과하였으나, 무혈청배지로 교환한 배양에서는 세포 성장이 크게 증가하여 $6.2{\times}105cells/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 최대 세포농도와 7,470units/mL 의 EPO 농도를 얻었다. 따라서 CHO 세포 성장과 E EPO 생산과는 상호 연관이 있으며, 세포배양으로 EPO 생산을 극대화하기 위해서는 CHO 세포의 고 농도 배양이 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

In the previous report, we have demonstrated that ginsenoside Rc, one of major ginsenosides, is a major component for the restoration for normal growth of worms in cholesterol-deprived medium. In the present study, we further investigated the roles of minor ginsenosides, such as ginsenoside $Rh_1$ and $Rh_2$, ginsenoside metabolites such as compound K (CK), protopanaxadiol (PPD), and protopanaxatriol (PPT) and ginsenoside epimers such as 20(R)- and 20(S)-ginsenoside $Rg_3$ in cholesterol-deprived medium. We found that ginsenoside $Rh_1$ almost restored normal growth of worms in cholesterol-deprived medium in F1 generation. However, supplement of ginsenoside $Rh_2$ caused a suppression of worm growths in cholesterol-deprived medium. In addition, CK and PPD also slightly restored normal growth of worms in cholesterol-deprived medium but PPT not. In experiments using ginsenoside epimers, supplement of 20(S)- but not 20(R)-ginsenoside $Rg_3$ in cholesterol-deprived medium also almost restored worm growth. These results indicate that the absence or presence of carbohydrate component at backbone of ginsenoside, the number of carbohydrate attached at carbon-3, and the position of hydroxyl group at carbon-20 of ginsenoside might plays important roles in restoration of worm growth in cholesterol-deprived medium.

The objective of this work was to investigate the nutritional requirements for the growth of Actinomyces sp. 9RCC5 isolated from the rumen of a native goat in Korea. The growth of strain 9RCC5 on the basal medium or the medium minus certain ingredients from the basal medium demonstrated that strain 9RCC5 showed absolute requirement of vitamin B complex mixture, while hemin and volatile fatty acids (VFA) were stimulatory to growth to some extent. The 9RCC5 strain grew well with casein hydrolysate as the sole added nitrogen source. However, neither a complex of 18 amino acids nor ammonium sulfate effectively replaced casein hydrolysate. Vitamins such as riboflavin and pantothenate were essential for growth, while thiamin and biotin were stimulatory. With regard to VFA, the growth was stimulated by acetic acid but inhibited by valeric acid. Relatively large quantities of $Na^+$, $K^+$ and $Ca^{2+}$ were absolutely required for growth. Supplementation of clarified rumen fluid to the basal medium in a range of 0-10% (vol/vol) resulted in an increased rate of growth as well as an increased extent of growth.

The effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on the mycelial growth and sporulation of microconidia and chlamydospores of five isolates of Cylindrocarpon destructans (Zinssm.) Scholten causing root rot of Panax ginseng were studied. For the carbon sources, fructose, glucose, maltose, and sucrose in Czapek-Dox broth showed good mycelial growth of 178∼201 mg in dry weight compared with 64 mg of the control. The best carbon sources tested for conidial formation were sucrose and maltose with 2.75 and 3.03 log conidia/ml, respectively. For the nitrogen sources, aspartic acid, NaNO3, KNO3, arginine, threonine, and leucine increased mycelial growth of the fungi to 208∼231 mg in dry weight without significant difference (p=0.05) among them. Meanwhile the growth with cystine was poor (26.3 mg dry weight), and no conidium and chlamydospore were formed. Maximum microconidial formation was observed in the media with NaNO3 and KNO3 as 3.37 and 3.35 log conidia/ml, and for the chlamydospore formation the (NH4)2SO4-containing medium and the nitrogen-absent medium were the best as 3.40 and 3.57 log chlamydospores/ml, respectively. No conidium was found in the medium without nitrogen sources, in which chlamydospore formation increased 6 times more than in the nitrogen-amended medium. However, deletion of carbon source in the medium did not affect on the formation of conidia and chlamydospores of C. destructans.
