The activity of fucosidase shows different value depending on disease, eg) fucosidosis and I cell disease are characterized by the absence or deficiences of .alpha.-fucosidase, and sera of ovarian cancer patients exhibited a statistically significant deficiency of .alpha.-L-fucosidase activity (Zielke et al., 1972; Kress et al., 1980; Barlow et al., 1981). For the purpose of diagnosis of these disease easily, the manual of test can be developed by preparing kits of hydrophobic-binding substrate of fucosidase that bind C18-column.

Various parameters such as solvent selection, concentration, solid/liquid ratio, soaking time, temperature, stationary, shaking conditions, and repeated extractions were investigated in order to determine the optimum extraction conditions of ${\beta}$-glucosidase from bagasse fermented by mixed culture of Aspergillus niger NRC 7A and Aspergillus oryzae NRRL 447. Among various solvents tested, non ionic detergents gave the best results than the inorganic or organic salt solutions and distilled water. The optimum conditions for extraction of ${\beta}$-glucosidase were 30 min soaking time at $40^{\circ}C$ under shaking condition at 150 rpm, with solid/liquid ratio 1:15 (w/v), which yielded $2882.74{\pm}95.52U/g$ fermented culture (g fc) of enzyme activity. With repeated washes under the above optimum conditions, the results showed that enzyme extracted in the $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ washes represents about 90% of the total activity.

The production of xylanase from Aspergillus niger mutant in SSF was optimized by' using statistical experimental designs. An inoculum size of $5{\times}10^5$ spores/g. initial moisture content of 65 %. cultivation time of 5 days and 10 times concentration of basal medium containing 50 times concentration of CSL were optimum for xylanase production ‘ Under the optimized conditions. the activity and productivity of xytanase obtained after 5 days of fermentation were 5.071 IU/gram of rice straw and 14.790 IU/l.h. respectively.

The addition of the ceramic powder as state of bare in culture medium has stimulated the growth of Achyranthes japonica in both the disorganized cell and the plantlet. The grwoth rate of Hyoscyamus niger adventitious root and Pylatycodon grandiflorum hairy root was enhanced up to 100 and 250%, respectively, even though Scopolia parviflora hairy root and Hyoscyamus albus adventitious root were not. The ceramic powder has enhanced the growth of H. niger adventitious root even in a test tube immersed into its culture medium to irradiate alone without any direct contact. The ceramic powder seems to have a significant role on both the growth and the physiological action of some plants.

We previously reported the morphological, physiochemical characteristics of Alismae Rhizoma. In this study, we examined the antimicrobial and antifungal activities of 85% ethanol and water extracts of Alismae Rhizoma using disc method. Ethanol extracts of Korean Alismae Rhizoma showed antimicrobial activity on B. subtilis and S. aureus on the concentration dependent manner, whereas, Chinese Alismae Rhizoma revealed antimicrobioal activity on E. coli and N. gonorrhoeae. The water solution(500 mg/ml) of each lyophilized powder of aqueous extracts didn't show any antimicrobial activity on B. subtilis, S. aureus and E. coli, on the contrary, they stimulated cell growth slightly. Ethanol extracts of Korean samples showed antifungal activity on A. niger, but not on C. albicans. Neither A. niger nor C. albicans were affected by Chineses samples.

To investigate the influences of biological factors on stored rice and their interactions, the activities of red Hour beetle(Tribolium castaneum) and 2 species of Aspergillus was observed during 6 weeks at $28^{\circ}C{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. It was found that the red flour beetle could complete its life cycle on rice in six weeks. Its activity caused the increse of moisture content of rice(max. 1.3%) after 6 weeks, but the number of mold propagule on the surface of stored rice decreased. The growth of red flour beetle showed a stabilizing tendency on rice inoculated with Asp. repens while it was retarded with Asp. niger.

Airborne microorganisms, which are currently termed bioaerosols, have received attention owing to the harmful effects they have on human health. As the concern over airborne microorganisms grows, there also grows an urgent need to study and develop efficient methods for controlling them. In this study, thermal energy using a thermal tube was tested as a control method, mainly against airborne E. coli. For a comparison, B. subtilis var. niger spores were utilized in the experimentation. It was found that the widely known inactivation conditions for microorganisms were not adequate against airborne microorganisms. The experimental results demonstrated the need for extensive studies that should investigate adequate and economic conditions to control against airborne bacteria. In this study, thermal energy exposed by the thermal tube demonstrated an inactivation performance for controlling E. coli bioaerosols.

Xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) was purified approximately 4.3 fold from Aspergillus niger SFN-416 by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and DEAE-Sephacel ion exchange chromatography. Molecular weight of the enzyme was approximately 42,000 daltons. The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme activity were 5.5 and 50$\circ$C, respectively. The enzyme activity was enhanced by Fe$^{2+}$, and inhibited by Hg$^{2+}$. The activity was decreased by addition of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and 1-butanol at a concentration of 10%(v/v).
