Helicobacter pylori is a major cause of gastric-associated diseases. In our previous study, the Adhesin/CTXA2B was expressed as insoluble recombinant chimeric protein derived from the H. pylori adhesin genetically coupled to CTXA2B subunit in Escherichia coli. Since it is very important to optimize IPTG concentration, culture temperature and composition of medium to maximize cell growth and productivity, these conditional growth factors were determined for increasing the productivity of the expressed Adhesin/CTXA2B chimeric protein in Escherichia coli JM101 carrying pTEDhpa/ctxa2b. Our data demonstrate that optimal medium for increased production of chimeric protein was a YCP/Glu medium composed of 2% yeast extract, 1% casamino acid, phosphate solution [0.3% $KH_2P0_4$, 0.4% $Na_2HP0_4$, 0.25% ($NH_4)_2HPO_4$], and 0.5% glucose. In addition, optimal concentration of IPTG was 1 mM and culture temperature, $37^{\circ}C$.

The R-amidase production by a newly isolated strain of Delftia tsuruhatensis ZJB-05174 was optimized in this paper. Effects of factors such as carbon sources, nitrogen sources, and inducers on amidase production were investigated. The medium composition was optimized using central composite designs and response surface analysis. The optimal medium components for enhanced amidase production were found to be as follows: glucose, 8.23 g/l; yeast extract, 11.59 g/l; 2,2-(R,S)-dimethylcyclopropane carboxamide, 1.76 g/l; NaCl, 1 g/l; ${KH_2}{PO_4}$ 1 g/l; and ${K_2}{HPO_4}$ 1 g/l. A maximum enzyme production of 528.21 U/l was obtained under the optimized conditions, which was 4.7 times higher than that obtained under initial conditions.

To elucidate the effect of sucrose on cell growth and anthocyanin production, 1, 3, 5, and 7% sucrose were applied to liquid MS basal medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BA + 0.1 and 1 mg/L 2,4-D. Higher sucrose concentration decreased the cell growth regardless of the hormonal composition. Cain in fresh weight was gradual, showing the peak at day 12 in culture, and then decreased. Anthocyanin content increased with sucrose concentration in the medium, and practically there was no difference in anthocyanin content between the two media differing in 2,4-D content. Sucrose concentration for appropriate anthocyanin production was 7%, while 5% was more suitable for increase in total anthocyanin content. At higher sucrose levels, anthocyanin content was high due to the cessation of the cell growth. Medium pH decreased at the early stage and gradually increased thereafter.

An inverse problem is solved to determine the space-dependent thermal conductivity in one-dimensinoal time-dependent heat conduction medium with the data imposed and measured at the two end-points. The thermal conductivity is approximated as a linear combination of known functions with unknown coefficients and the unknowns are obtained by the governing and sensitivity equations using modified Newton-Raphson method. The estimated results are compared with exact thermal conductivities and it shows good agreements. This approach is expected to be used to estimate spatial composition of heat conduction medium.

The purpose of this study was to examine the usage of internet advertisement, to define the convenient dimensions of information navigation medium, and to examine the difference of convenient information navigation among advertisement types and information design methods. Thirty-four subjects were selected for the survey study and descriptive anlysis, factor analysis and ANOVA were used for the data analysis. The results of this study were: 1. the most perceived channel about the web site information was the search engine, the most preferred type of information design was the mixed type with text and image, and the most preferred medium for fashion information is the magazine. 2. the convenient dimensions of information navigation medium were information understanding, design composition, easy navigation, timely navigation, and convenient navigation. 3. the information design method is the significant factor influencing on the convenient information navigation.

Optimization of the fermentation medium for phenylethyl alcohol (PEA) production by Pichia anomala SKM-T was performed. The carbon source (glucose), nitrogen source (L-phenylalanine), and initial pH value were independent variables of the optimized medium. The central composite rotatable design was used for the experimental design and the analysis of the results. The optimum medium composition for the maximal production (621.27 mg/L) of PEA was found to be an initial pH of 5.03, and concentrations of L-phenylalanine at 6.53 and glucose at 6.11 g/L (w/v). This experimental finding is in close agreement with the model prediction (702.79 mg/L; desirability 0.884) with an 11.6% difference.

Mass cultivation of microalgae is necessary to achieve economically feasible production of microalgal biodiesel. However, the high cost of nutrients is a major limitation. In this study, corncob extract (CCE) was used as an inorganic and organic nutrient source for the mass cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris (C. vulgaris). Chemical composition analysis of CCE revealed that it contained sufficient nutrients for mixotrophic cultivation of C. vulgaris. The highest specific grow rate of C. vulgaris was obtained at pH of 7-8, temperature of $25-30^{\circ}C$, and CCE amount of 5 g/L. In the analysis using various growth models, Luong model was found to be the most suitable empirical formula for mass cultivation of C. vulgaris using CCE. Analysis of biomass and production of triacyglycerol showed that microalgae grown in CCE medium produced more than 17.23% and 3% more unsaturated fatty acids than cells cultured in Jaworski's Medium. These results suggest that growing microalgae in CCE-supplemented medium can increase lipid production. Therefore, CCE, agricultural byproduct, has potential use for mass cultivation of microalgae.

Mechanical properties of the gas nitrocarburized product depend on the surface compound layer and the diffusion zone formed. The compound layer improves the wear resistance, and the corrosion resistance. Though phase composition, pore layer and growth rate of the compound layer varies according to the treatment time, temperature and the kind of the steel substrate, they are strongly influenced by the environmental gas composition. In the current study, the growth behavior of the compound layer and diffusion zone of the carbon steel and the alloy steel upon nitrocarburizing treatment at $570^{\circ}C$, and the phase composition and the variation in the growth rate of the compound layer according to the variation of the gas environment which was the medium of the nitriding and carburizing reaction were investigated.

Mycelia of Streptomyces viridochromogenes grown under different pH were analysed for the fatty acid composition. The low relative proportion of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid and the high relative proportion of palmitic acid were characteristic for the young culture under slight acidic pH that caused delay of the aerial mycelium formation. The addition of L-arginine to the culture medium enabled an arginine auxotroph with bald phenotype to have the fatty acid composition similar to that of the wild type and to develop aerial mycelium. The ratio of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid to palmitic acid might be used as a parameter to explain the optimum grwoth in the respect of membrane fluidity.
