캠페롤은 항산화, 항염등의 성질을 가지고 있지만 생산이 쉽지가 않다. 차의 씨를 가공하고 발생하는 부산물 (tea seed extract)에는 캠페롤과 당이 결합되어 있는 형태인 camelliaside A와 camelliaside B가 포함되어 있다. 본 실험에서는 캠페롤을 효소의 가수분해에 의하여 생산하였다. 가장 효과적인 효소는 $pectinex^{(R)}100L$ 이며, 효소 반응에서 캠페롤은 48시간내에 생산되었다. 반응 최적 조건은 $40^{\circ}C$, pH 4이며 생산의 최적조건하에서 차 부산물 1 kg당 1.6 g의 캠페롤이 생산되었고 약 80%의 캠페롤이 침전되었다. 효소반응에 의한 캠페롤 생산법은 생산물의 회수가 용이한 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있다.

본 연구는 양파즙으로 식초를 생성하기 위해 수행되었다. 양파는 당, 아미노산, 다양한 영양분이 풍부하기 때문에 식초의 우수한 원료로 고려된다. 초산발효를 위해 초산균은 시판되고 있는 식초와 완숙된 김치로부터 분리하여 사용하였다. 양파즙 배지에 2-8% ethanol이 보충될 때, 4% ethanol 첨가에 의해 9일에 가장 높은 초산 생성능을 보였다. 초산 생성을 위한 적정온도는 $30^{\circ}C$였고, 통기량은 200 rpm이 경제적인 것으로 나타났다. 초산 발효를 위해 표면적인 넓은 삼각 플라스크가 시험관보다 높은 생성 능력을 보였다. 그러므로 초산 생성을 위한 초적 조건은 초기 5% 알코올 함량과 2% 산도로, $30^{\circ}C$에서 200 rpm으로 9일 동안 배양하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 조건으로 초산 발효될 때, 5.2% 총산도와 1% 미만의 알코올이 잔존하는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 산업자원부가 고시한 과실 음료 조건에 적합한 것으로 판명되었다.

This study determined the effect of light intensity and photoperiod on the dry cell weight and total amount of carotenoids in four isolates of purple non-sulfur bacteria obtained from shaded and exposed microhabitats of a mangrove ecosystem in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. The initial isolation of the bacteria was carried out using synthetic 112 medium under anaerobic conditions (2.5 klx) at $30{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. On the basis of colony appearance, cell morphology, gram staining, motility test, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing analyses, all four bacteria were identified as Afifella marina. One of the bacterial isolates, designated as Af. marina strain ME, which was extracted from an exposed mud habitat within the mangrove ecosystem, showed the highest yield in dry cell weight ($4.32{\pm}0.03g/l$) as well as total carotenoids ($0.783{\pm}0.002mg/g$ dry cell weight). These values were significantly higher than those for dry cell weight ($3.77{\pm}0.02g/l$) and total carotenoid content ($0.706{\pm}0.008mg/g$) produced by the isolates from shaded habitats. Further analysis of the effect of 10 levels of light intensity on the growth characteristics of Af. marina strain ME showed that the optimum production of dry cell weight and total carotenoids was achieved at different light intensities and incubation periods. The bacterium produced the highest dry cell weight of 4.98 g/l at 3 klx in 72 h incubation, but the carotenoid production of 0.783 mg/g was achieved at 2.5 klx in 48 h incubation. Subsequent analysis of the effect of photoperiod on the production of dry cell weight and total carotenoids at optimum light intensities (3 and 2.5 klx, respectively) revealed that 18 and 24 h were the optimum photoperiods for the production of dry cell weight and total carotenoids, respectively. The unique growth characteristics of the Af. marina strain ME can be exploited for biotechnology applications.

Anaerobic digestion is a popular sewage sludge (Ss) treatment method as it provides significant pollution control and energy recovery. However, the low C/N ratio and poor biodegradability of Ss necessitate pretreatment methods that improve solubilization under anaerobic conditions in addition to anaerobic co-digestion with other substrates to improve the process efficiency. In this study, three pretreatment methods, namely microwave irradiation, ultrasonication, and heat treatment, were investigated, and the corresponding improvement in methane production was assessed. Additionally, the simplex centroid design method was utilized to determine the optimum mixture ratio of food waste (Fw), livestock manure (Lm), and Ss for maximum methane yield. Microwave irradiation at 700 W for 6 min yielded the highest biodegradability (62.0%), solubilization efficiency (59.7%), and methane production (329 mL/g VS). The optimum mixture ratio following pretreatment was 61.3% pretreated Ss, 28.6% Fw, and 10.1% Lm. The optimum mixture ratio without pretreatment was 33.6% un-pretreated Ss, 46.0% Fw, and 20.4% Lm. These results indicate that the choice of pretreatment method plays an important role in efficient anaerobic digestion and can be applied in operational plants to enhance methane production. Co-digestion of Ss with Fw and Lm was also beneficial.

A sequential optimization strategy, based on statistical experimental designs, is employed to enhance the production of alkaline protease by a Bacillus pseudofirmus local isolate. To screen the bioprocess parameters significantly influencing the alkaline protease activity, a 2-level Plackett-Burman design was applied. Among 15 variables tested, the pH, peptone, and incubation time were selected based on their high positive significant effect on the protease activity. A near-optimum medium formulation was then obtained that increased the protease yield by more than 5-fold. Thereafter, the response surface methodology(RSM) was adopted to acquire the best process conditions among the selected variables, where a 3-level Box-Behnken design was utilized to create a polynomial quadratic model correlating the relationship between the three variables and the protease activity. The optimal combination of the major medium constituents for alkaline protease production, evaluated using the nonlinear optimization algorithm of EXCEL-Solver, was as follows: pH of 9.5, 2% peptone, and incubation time of 60 h. The predicted optimum alkaline protease activity was 3,213 U/ml/min, which was 6.4 times the activity with the basal medium.

In recent years a great deal of information has accumulated for livestock on vitamin. function, metabolism and supplemental needs. The role of the antioxidant "vitamins" (carotenoids, vitamin E and vitamin C) in immunity and health of livestock has been a fruitful area of research. These nutrients play important roles in animal health by inactivating harmful free radicals produced through normal cellular activity and from various stressors. Both in vitro and in vivo studies showed that these antioxidant vitamins generally enhance different aspects of cellular and noncellular immunity. A compromised immune system will result in reduced animal production efficiency through increased susceptibility to diseases, thereby leading to increased animal morbidity and mortality. Vitamin E has been shown to increase performance of feedlot cattle and to increase immune response for ruminant health, including being beneficial for mastitis control. Vitamin E given to finishing cattle at higher than National Research Council (NRC) requirements dramatically maintained the red color (oxymyoglobin) compared with the oxidized metmyoglobin of beef. Under commercial livestock and poultry production conditions, vitamin allowances higher than NRC requirements may be needed to allow optimum performance. Generally, the optimum vitamin supplementation level is the quantity that achieves the best growth rate, feed utilization, health (including immune competency), and provides adequate body reserves.

Studies on the optimum conditions of acid hydrolysis of sweet potato starch cake and its utilization on the production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a carbon source were conducted and the results showed as follows; 1.The highest hydrolysis rate, 62.7 ％ of the reducing sugar based on the weight of the dry matter, was obtained when the starch cake was hydrolyzed with 1.0％ of hydrochloric acid at 2.0 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 30 minutes. 2. But the yeast grew most favorably on the hydrolyzate obtained by treating the starch cake with 0.5％ of hydrochloric acid at 2.0 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 10 minutes. Reducing sugar content of hydrolyzate was 51.4％. 3. The optimum pH of the culture medium was 7.0, Cell growth reached to the maximum at 36 hours of cultivation time. 4. According to the vitamin requirement tests, Ca-pantothenate was found to be a promoting factor for the growth of the yeast cells. 5. "Gluten acid hydrolyzate" was most effective to the cell growth when added to the medium at the concentration of 0.1％ as a nitrogen source. 6. Sacch. cerevisiae could assimilate the sugars in the hydrolyzate about 89.1％, and the yields of the yeast cells showed 23.2mg/ml of culture medium.

A bacterial strain producing high level of an extracellular phytase was isolated from cooked rice and identified as a strain of Bacillus sp. and designated as Bacillus sp. KHU-10. Optimum culture conditions were investigated for the maximum productivity of phytase by Bacillus sp. KHU-10. 1.0% Maltose and 1.0% peptone with 0.5% beef extract were the best carbon source and nitrogen source, respectively. The addition of $CaCl_2$, stimulated the enzyme productivity with concentration between 0.01% and 0.2%, in the medium. Although sodium phosphate increased the cell mass, the enzyme activity decreased. Calcium phytate and wheat bran containing phytate did not enhance the enzyme production. Under the optimum medium, the production of the phytase reached the highest level of 0.2 unit/ml after 4 days of incubation.
