Cells of Stigmatella aurantiace developed in the light on the medium containing calcium, barium, or lithium ion formed fruiting bodies without stalk. Fruiting body with stalk was formed on the medium containing calcium ion and GMP (GMP-medium) even under the dark condition. On the medium containing calcium and pheromone (pheromone-medium), most cells were developed only into the stalk in the light and into the sporangium in the dark. The number of aggregate formed on the medium containing calcium ion (Ca-medium) was more than that formed on the medium containing calcium, potassium, and sodium ions (CPS-medium). The number of aggregate formed on the GMP or pheromone-medium was less than that formed on the Ca-medium. Both pheromone and GMP reduced the time required for aggregate formation when cells were developed in the dark. Light stimulated cells to form more aggregates in short time when it was introduced into the Ca-, CPS-, GMP-, or pheromone-medium.

This study investigated the impact of two distinct MS basal media: one containing FeNaEDTA and the other FeEDDHA, on the growth of five unique gerbera cultivars (Shy Pink, Pink Holic, Breeze, Harmony, Snow Dream). Notably, the response to these media types varied significantly among the cultivars, particularly concerning leaf yellowing and plant growth. 'Shiny Pink' and 'Pink Holic' exhibited leaf yellowing on the FeNaEDTA-containing medium but displayed leaf greening on the FeEDDHA-containing medium. In contrast, 'Snow Dream,' 'Harmony,' and 'Breeze' remained unaffected on both medium types. However, the FeNaEDTA-containing medium promoted higher plant height and petiole length in 'Breeze,' 'Harmony,' and 'Snow Dream' than the FeNaEDTA-containing medium did. A promotive effect of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on plant growth and leaf greening was observed in 'Pink Holic,' particularly on the FeNaEDTA-containing medium, while the addition of AgNPs to the FeEDDHA-containing medium negatively affected plant growth. These results highlight the substantial influence of medium type, specifically the presence of FeNaEDTA or FeEDDHA, on gerbera growth responses, emphasizing the critical role of medium selection in gerbera propagation. Additionally, when contemplating the addition of AgNPs for in vitro gerbera propagation, it is crucial to consider the medium type.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of extract of Cervi pantotrichum cornu on human sperm motility, Four different types of media were prepared such as plain Ham's F-10 medium(control medium), control medium containing 0.3% bovine serum albumin(BSA)(medium A), control medium containing the extract of Cervi pantotrichum cornu aqua-acupuncture medium(medium B) and medium B containing 0.3% BSA(medium C). Human semen were washed and divided into 4 fractions and sperm were cultured in those medium for up to 72 hours at 37$^{\circ}C$ in a humidified atmosphere of 5% $CO_2$ in air. A total twenty eight semen samples including 14 normozoospermia and 14 asthenospermia were used for this study. In normozoospermia group, motility of control medium and medium A, B and C were 4.1%, 1.3%, 64.5%, and 77.1%, respectively after 24 hours of incubation, and were 0.0%, 0.0%. 8.8% and 44.9%, respectively after 48 hours of incubation. In asthenospermia group, motility of control medium and medium A, B and C were 2.0%, 2.2%, 58.3% and 85.1%, respectively after 24 hours of incubation, and decreased to 0.0%, 0.2%, 5.8% and 29.6%, respectively after 48 hours of incubation. In both groups, highest sperm motility was observed in medium C group when compared with other media. Furthermore motile sperm were found in medium C after 72 hours of incubation while no motile sperm was observed in the other media. Therefore it could be concluded that the extract of Cervi pantotrichum rornu affects on the human sperm motility.

Physiological changes of the murine hybridoma cell line $S3H5/\gamma{2bA2}$ during adaptation to RPMI 1640 medium with 1%(v/v) fetal bovine serum were characterized in terms of cell growth, antibody production, morphology, and metabolic quotients. Cells adapted to 1% serum medium in T-flasks became sensitive to shear induced by mechanical agitation and required at least 5% serum in the medium or spent medium for cell growth in spinner flasks, while cells adapted to 10% serum medium in T-flasks could grow in 1% serum medium in spinner flasks. Consequently, long-term adaptation to low serum media may not give the expected growth enhancement. After adaptation to 1% serum medium, changes in cell morphology were observed. The cells in 10% serum medium were uniform and circular, while cells in 1% medium were irregularly shaped. The DNA contents, which were measured by flow cytometry, were almost constant among the cells in the range of 1% to 10%. Further, no significant changes in energy metabolism and specific monoclonal antibody production rate were observed among these cells.

DagA, a ${\beta}$-agarase, was produced by cultivating a recombinant Streptomyces lividans in a glucose medium or a mixed-sugar medium simulating microalgae hydrolysate. The optimum composition of the glucose medium was identified as 25 g/l glucose, 10 g/l yeast extract, and $5g/l\;MgCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$. With this, a DagA activity of 7.26 U/ml could be obtained. When a mixed-sugar medium containing 25 g/l of sugars was used, a DagA activity of 4.81 U/ml was obtained with very low substrate utilization efficiency owing to the catabolic repression of glucose against the other sugars. When glucose and galactose were removed from the medium, an unexpectedly high DagA activity of about 8.7 U/ml was obtained, even though a smaller amount of sugars was used. It is recommended for better substrate utilization and process economics that glucose and galactose be eliminated from the medium, by being consumed by some other useful applications, before the production of DagA.

Scopolia parviflora Nakai, a rare and endangered species, is the sole plant producing tropane alkaloids (TA) among the Korean native species. In order to enhance TA productivity the SP72 root line was selected by screening 100 of root line, and the optimal culture media for root growth and TA production were investigated with the SP72 roots. Based on the several media, SH and 2B5 medium were determined as growth medium and White and NN medium as production medium. Among the four combinations of two-stage culture, 2BN (2B5 as growth medium plus NN as production medium) showed more enhanced root growth and TA production as compared with production media of White and NN medium and growth media of SH and 2B5 medium, respectively. However, bubble column bioreactor (BCB) cultures applying two-stage culture did not reveal the effective results despite of the each successful operation of two-stage culture in conical flasks and BCB cultures.
