A Gram-positive bacterium (strain JB-13) that was isolated from soil as a producer of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) [EC 2.4.1.19] was identified as Panibacillus sp. JB-13. This CGTase could catalyze the transglucosylation reaction from soluble starch to L-ascorbic acid (AA). A main product formed by this enzyme with ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ was identified as $2-O-{\alpha}-D-glucopyranosyl{\;}_{L}-ascorbic$ acid (AA-2G) by the HPLC profile and the elemental analysis. CGTase was purified to homogeneity using ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Seohadex A-50, and gel chromatography on Sephacryl S-200HR. The molecular weight was determined to be 66,000 by both gel chromatography and SDS-PAGE. The isoelectric point of the purified enzyme was 5.3. The optimum pH and temperature was PH 7.0 and $45^{\circ}C$ respectively. The enzyme was stable in the range of pH 6-9 and at temperatures of $75{\circ}C$ or less in the presence of 15 mM ${CaCl_2}.\;{Hg^2+},\;{Mn^+2},{Ag^+},\;and\;{Cu^2+}$ all strongly inhibited the enzyme's activity.

The characteristic properties of powders obtained from this experiment were as follows. The optimum synthesis condition in reaction bath was above PH 8.5 and under $25^{\circ}C$ The particle size of precipitated SrTiO(OH) powders dried at 6$0^{\circ}C$ was under 0.01${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and uniform. Amorphous precipitated complex powders emitted adsorbed water at 15$0^{\circ}C$ less that and crystalline $SrTiO_3$powders was produced from calcining the complex at 30$0^{\circ}C$. Sintered body of SrTiO3 fired at 133$0^{\circ}C$ showed that relative dielectric constant was 228 at 1MHZ and bulk density was 4.73g/$cm^3$.

A lactic acid bacterial isolate Lactobacillus ssp. SCU-M which produces exopolysaccharide was identified and its cultural Condition was investigated. The optimum Conditions for exopolysaccharide(EPS) Production Of Lactobacillus ssp. SCU-M were 37$\^{C}$, pH 6.5, using medium composed of 1.5% galactose, 1.0% yeast extract, 0.25% peptone, 0.15% MgSO$_4$, 0.15% K$_2$HPO$_4$ and 0.1% tween 80 in distilled water. The EPS concentration after 48 hours at the Initial pH 6.5, 37$\^{C}$ in a flask culture was 1,680 mg/ℓ.

In this paper, Wireless sensor network technology applied to various greenhouse agro-industry items such as horticulture and local specialty etc., we was constructed automatic control system for optimum growth environment by measuring growth status and environmental change. existing monitoring systems of greenhouse gather information about growth environment depends on the temperature. but in this system, Can be efficient collection and control of information to construct wireless sensor network by growth measurement sensor and environment monitoring sensor inside of the greenhouse. The system is consists of sensor manager for information processing, an environment database that stores information collected from sensors, the GUI of show the greenhouse status, it gather soil and environment information to soil and environment(including weather) sensors, growth measurement sensor. In addition to support that soil information service shows the temperature, moisture, EC, ph of soil to user through the interaction of obtained data and Complex Growth Environment information service for quality and productivity can prevention and response by growth disease or disaster of greenhouse agro-industry items how temperature, humidity, illumination acquiring informationin greenhouse(strawberry, ginseng). To verify the executability of the system, constructing the complex growth environment measurement system using wireless sensor network in greenhouse and we confirmed that it is can provide our optimized growth environment information.

A laboratory- scale dual-column biofilter system was used to study the biofiltration of dimethyl disulfide (DMDS). The gas flow rate and DMDS concentration to the biofilter were varied to study their effect on the remov-al of dimethyl disulfide. Operating parameters such as pH, temperature, and water content were monitored during the biofilter operation and necessary precautions were taken to keep these parameters within the acceptable limits. It was observed that the removal efficiency of DMDS was optimal at neutral pH values. After five month op-eration, the neutralization of the filter beds with sodium carbonate became necessary for the optimum operation of the biofilters. The microbial population already present in the compost mixtures was found to be adequate in treat-ing DMDS. The compost mixtures were found to be similar in terms of biofiltration efficiency of DMDS. However, pressure drops observed in the first column compost mixture (compost/ peat mulch) was extremely high, making this compost economically not feasible. The second mixture (compost/bark) provided pressure drops within accept-able limits. A minimum residence time of 30 seconds at the optimal operating conditions appeared to be adequate for achieving high removal efficiencies (>90%).

Direct Sky Blue-5B is an Azo dye known as general for staining of textile and leather, etc., and as materials which are difficult to be biodegraded in nature. The bacterium strain which could degrade direct Sky Blue-5B was isolated from activated sludge of dyeing factory and identified as Proteus sp. by experiment on morphological, cultural and biochemical characteristics, and so named Proteus sp. ST-1. The optimum condition of the strain for degradation of Sky Blue-5B were at about 35$^{\circ}C$ and PH 7~8. The strain had been capable of degradation with organic nitrogen effectively and had completely degraded 200mg/1 of the dye within 12hrs at 37$^{\circ}C$. The enzyme system related to degradation of Azo dye may be intracellular, and so degraded the dye after absorption into cell. The degradation products of Sky Blue-5B by Proton sp. 57-1 were analyzed by Gas Chromatography /Mass Spectrometry and Spectrophotomer, from this observation, it may be infered that the strain degraded the dye directly without any mediate.

In this study, the stabilizer, PH and lysis method for optimum condition of S. uvarum protoplast formation were investigated, and also enzyme activity and poly-P formation of intact cell and protoplast mere compared. Upon protoplast formation, incubation time of 5 hours in snail gut enzyme and 3 hours in drisielase were reignited. 0.8 Mole mannitol and 6 mole KCl were apt to protoplast formation. Protoplast was contained less 22-27 percentage in ALPase, 4-15 percentage in ACPase than intact cell. Accumulation of inorganic polyphosphate did not increase significently in protoplast compared with intact cell.

To utilize lipase obtained from Candida cylindracea for lipid hydrolysis, methods to immobilize lipase by adsorption and reaction characteristics of the immobilized lipase by adsorption were investigated. Among the tested adsorbents, silica gel was selected as a suitable adsorbent. The optimum condition for adsorption of lipase was when 47.5 units of lipase were adsorbed to 1.6g of silica gel at pH7.0 and $5^{\circ}C$ for 100 min. Optimum pH and temperature for activity of the immobilized lipase were at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH7.0, which were same as the soluble lipase. Optimum enzyme concentration of the immobilized lipase were 30g for milk fat and 80g for olive oil, whereas those of the soluble lipase were 800 units for milk fat and 1200 units for olive oil. The optimum substrate concentrations of the immobilized and soluble lipases were 20% lipid, regardless of lipid types. Rapid hydrolysis of milk fat was observed with the soluble lipase for the initial 4 hours and with the immobilized lipase for the initial 8 hours. The immobilized lipase produced same amount of capric acid as the soluble lipase, but more myristic acid and less butyric acid than the soluble lipase.
