When No. 42 strain of Pleurotus ostreatus was cultivated at five different media, MnP and Lac but no LiP activity was detected throughout the culture period in the media. The production of MnP and Lac by No. 42 strain of Pleurotus ostreatus were correlated with wheat bran composition in the medium. In the liquid culture, maximum production of MnP and Lac were observed in the medium contained glucose-peptone- yeast-wheat bran(GPYW). However, in solid medium, maximum production of MnP was observed in wood meal-wheat bran(WMW) medium, but that of Lac was observed in wheat bran(W) medium.

The effect of intercritical annealing temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Fe-9Mn-0.2C-3Al-0.5Si medium manganese steels containing Cu and Ni is investigated in this study. Six kinds of medium manganese steels are fabricated by varying the chemical composition and intercritical annealing temperature. Hardness and tensile tests are performed to examine the correlation of microstructure and mechanical properties for the intercritical annealed medium manganese steels containing Cu and Ni. The microstructures of all the steels are composed mostly of lath ferrite, reverted austenite and cementite, regardless of annealing temperature. The room-temperature tensile test results show that the yield and tensile strengths decrease with increasing intercritical annealing temperature due to higher volume fraction and larger thickness of reverted austenite. On the other hand, total and uniform elongations, and strain hardening exponent increase due to higher dislocation density because transformation-induced plasticity is promoted with increasing annealing temperature by reduction in reverted austenite stability.

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 experiment was carried out to study the effect of pure nitrogen fertilization on botanical composition of grassland in 1987~ 1988 under practical conditions at the " Federal Institute for Agriculture in the Alps" in Austria. The application rates were 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120kg/ha/cut, the cutting regimes 3-, 4 , 5- and 6-cuts/year. The results were as follows: 1. Only PK fertilization resulted in higher botanical composition of Trifolium repens among legumes in grassland, which was increased by cutting frequency .2. Nitrogen fertilization on three-cut areas resulted in higher existence of generally valuable tall grasses such as Arrhenotherum elatius Trisetum flavescens and Dactylis glomerata . On the other hand, nitrogen fertilization on four-, five- and six-cut areas showed mainly Doctylis glomerato and Poa pratensis appearance. 3.For some cases, appearance of less valuable grasses, herbs and weeds such as Agropyron repens, Poa trivialis, Poa annua, Setoria viridis, Aegopodium podagra rio, Men landrium rubrum, Taraxacum officlnale, Achillea millefolium, Rorippa sylvestris and Polygonum ocleulare was *Bundesanstalt fur alpenlandische Landwirtschaft Gumpenstein(A-8952 Irdning, 6sterreich) increased on medium and high rates of N fertilized areas. 4.Reduction of sward density may also diminish the advantages of nitrogen fertilization and may be threatened by mainly high dressings of nitrogen combined with too late utilization of the sward. 5.Location altered the efficiency of nitrogen fertilization on botanical composition.mposition.

The research is concerned with optimization of growth medium composition in an attempt to improve the product yield of Bacillus licheniformis amylase (BLMA) in recombinant E. coli containing the BLMA gene. BLMA has the catalytic activity of producing branched oligosaccharides from starch. The medium optimization was performed in flask cultures based on the Box and Wilson method. The optimized medium is composed of tryptone 18.0 g/l, yeast extract 22.4 g/l, NaCl 5.3 g/l and glucose 2.1 g/l. In a jar fermenter culture with the conventional LB medium, the recombinant E. coli yielded 1.39 g/l of final dry cell mass and 5.11 U/ml of enzyme activity. In the optimized medium, however, the final cell mass was increased to 6.01 g/l and the enzyme activity to 23.2 U/ml. Medium optimization improved cell mass by 4.3 times and enzyme activity by 4.5 times. Such an increase in enzyme activity is mainly due to an enhancement of cell mass.

Callus culture initiation of strawberry (Fragaria${\times}$ananassa Duch.) was investigated at different Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium strengths, types and concentrations of plant growth regulators, and incorporating a cold pretreatment period to determine the optimal nutritional and environmental conditions. No high quality callus was induced on MS media without auxin regardless of medium strength. When 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) was combined with indole acetic acid (IAA), naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), high quality callus were highly induced compared to medium supplemented with auxin alone. When $0.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA was combined with IAA, NAA, and 2,4-D, high quality callus induction was more effective than the medium supplemented with the other BA concentrations. The best combination of auxin and cytokinin for high quality callus induction was $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA and $0.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA. Although the differences in callus induction were not significant, high quality callus induction at half strength MS medium was more effective than at full strength medium. When $30g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose was added to the half strength MS medium, the rate of high quality callus induction increased. The optimum cold pretreatment temperature and period for high quality callus induction were $4^{\circ}C$ and 72 h, respectively. Regeneration rate of high quality callus increased in MS medium supplemented with thidiazuron.

A total of 42 strains of Candida albicans were examined for susceptibility to three antifungal agents, amphotericin B(AMB), 5-fluorocytosine(5-FC), and ketoconazole(KTZ), using defined medium, synthetic amino acid medium-fungal(SAAM-F), supplemented yeast nitrogen base(SYNB) and undefined medium Sabouraud's dextrose broth(SDB) and Kimmig broth media. A tube dilution method was used with minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs) determined after incubation for 24 hour and 48 hours. All testes were performed in duplicate. In general, MICs were more reproducible after 48 hour of incubation. Forthermore, MICs determined after incubation for 48 hours were significantly higher than those determined after 24 hours. The actural MICs obtained with the different antifungal agents were clearly influenced by the test medium used. The rank order of AMB MICs according to the test medium was as follows: SAAM-F>SYNB>SDB>Kimmig broth. With 5-FC, the following pattern was observed: SYNB>SAAM-F>SDB>Kimmig borth. For ketoconazole, the MICs according to the test medium was SAAM-F>SDB>SYNB> Kimmig broth. In amphotericin B, the MICs mean value with the test medium was as follows: SDB, 0.24 mcg/ml; Kimmig broth, 0.29 mcg/ml; SYNB, 0.21 mcg/ml and SAAM-F, 0.15mcg/ml. The actural value of 5-FC was; SDB, 37.20 mcg/ml; Kimmig broth, 67.41mcg/ml; SYNB, 21.29 mcg/ml and SAAM-F, 24.61 mcg/ml and in ketoconazole, the MICs value was; SDB, 1.83 mcg/ml; Kimmig broth, 4.08 mcg/ml; SYNB, 1.95 mcg/ml and SAAM-F, 1.41 mcg/ml. The results of this investigation suggested that broth dilution susceptibility testing of yeast and yeast-like fungi are best performed with an incubation period of 48 hours. Furthermore, medium composition can significantly influence the results of such testing.

A tylosin-hyperproductive mutant of S. fradiae MNU20 was isolated among 3500 strains obtaincd from either MNNG- or UV-treated Streptomyces fradiae NRRL2702. The composition of optimal medium for tylosin production was formulated as followed as: 4 g soluble starch, 1 g glucose, 1 g corn steep liquor, 7.5 ml soy bean oil, 0.2 g KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$, 1 g Na$_{2}$S$_{2}$O$_{3}$$\cdot $5H$_{2}$O, 2 g CaCO$_{3}$, 2 g NaCl, 0.001 g CoCl$_{2}$$\cdot $6H$_{2}$O in 1 liter of distilled water. With the optimal medium, S. fradiae MNU20 was able to produce 159 mg tylosin (g biomass)$^{-1}$, indicating that tylosin productivity of Streptomyces fradiae NRRL2702 was increased 14 times higher by mutation. When the effect of valine, succinate, and natural zeolite on tylosin production was investigated by using the optimal medium, these substances essentially enhanced tylosin production and their addition time during culture period appeared to be critical for the increase of tylosin production.

Nanoparticles (NPs), which have been investigated intensively as electrocatalysts, are usually synthesized by chemical methods that allow precise size and shape control. However, it is difficult to control the components and compositions of alloy NPs. On the other hand, the conventional physical method, sputtering with solid substrates, allows for facile composition control but size control is difficult. Recently, “liquid medium sputtering” has been suggested as an alternative method that is capable of combining the advantages of the chemical and conventional physical methods. In this review, we will discuss NP synthesis via the liquid medium sputtering technique using ionic liquid and low-volatile polymer media. In addition, potential applications of the technique, including the generation of oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts, will be discussed.
