에탄올발효에서 에탄올은 세포의 성장 및 에탄올생합성에 저해작용을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 저해작용을 감소시켜주기 위하여 에탄올을 선택적으로 분리하는 투과증발법을 이용하였다. 실리콘폴리슬폰 복합막을 제조하여 사용하였는데, 이 막은 유입액의 에탄올 농도가 25g/l, 온도가 30'C, 막하부의 압력이 10mmHg일 때 에탄올의 선택도가 약 4 이었으며, 총 투과유속은 300g/m2h이었다. 에탄올 발효는 Saccharomyces cerevisiae를 Ca-alginate에 고정화시켜 유동층 생물반응기에 접종하여 수행하였고, 이 반응기를 투과증발장치와 연결한 혼합공정을 구성하였는데, 혼합공정의 경우 발효배지의 에탄올농도는 막을 연결하지 않았을 때보다 감소하여 저해작용을 감소시키고 생산성을 향상시켰다.

Radiotherapy is an irreplaceable method of cancer treatment but, it has various side effects, especially damage to the hemopoietic system. A lot of radioprotectors have been found but they also have toxic effects. Many kinds of crude drugs(Oriental Chinese medicine)with low toxicity have been reported to promote the recovery from radiation damage. Recently, the trial to combine radiotherapy with herbal treatment of cancer patients shows a desirable result, an enhancement in recovery of the blood system.. This study was performed to determine whether prescriptions to support the healthy energy and strengthen the body resistence, Buzhongyiqi-tang and Siliu-tang, promote the recovery of splenocytes of N:GP(s) mice from radiation damage. We investigated the proliferative effect of Buzhongyiqi-tang, Siliu-tang and EIB(ethanol insoluble fraction of Buzhongyiqi-tang) on N:GP(S)mice splenocytes before or after ${\gamma}$-irradiation. We also investigated the morphology of splenocytes cultured with these herbs. Buzhongyiqi-tang and Siliu-tang promoted the proliferation of splenocytes in a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml compared with normal control(p<0.001). After 1-5Gy of ${\gamma}$-irradiation they also showed the effect of recovery of hemopoietic cells, especially in Buzhongyiqi-tang(4Gy:p<0.005; 5Gy:p<0.05). In addition, EIB(ethanol insoluble fraction of Buzhongyiqi-tang) showed the highest proliferative effect of all agents suggesting that more effective fractions could be found from crude herbs or prescriptions. These results suggest that it is possible to make use of Buzhongyiqi-tang, Siliu-tang or EIB as radio-protective agents.

We have intended to accelerate the secretion of human lysozyme(HLY) with permeabilizing agents from the cultivated cells of the recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The five agents CaCl2, Tween 80, ethanol, Triton X 100, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB) were used as permeabilizing agents. Treatments of the yeast cell with CaCl2, Tween 80, and ethanol were effective to increase the secretion from the yeast cells. Especially, treatment of 10% ethanol increased the extracellular HLY activity by 38.6% at 30oC for 48 h in culture broth. But Triton X 100 and CTAB unexpectedly didn't play a role in increase of HLY secretion. Recovery of a foreign protein by permeabilizing agents is easier than by osmotic shock, and is less expensive than enzymatic digestion.

Objectives : This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Wongisaengmaek-san (extracted with water or 50% ethanol) on antioxidative activity and recovery of fatigue induced by weight-loaded forced swimming exercise. Methods : Antioxidant activity of Wongisaengmaek-san was evaluated in terms of total amount of polyphenol, 1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhvdroxyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and xanthine oxidase inhibition. The anti-fatigue effect of Wongisaengmaek-san was investigated using an acute weight-loaded forced swimming test by monitoring swimming test times and blood biochemical parameters creatinine. BUN, lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH), free fatty acid (FFA) and lactic acid (LA). Results : 1. 50% EE (ethanol extract) had 2.3 times higher amount of total polyphenol compared to water extract. 2. It was identified that 50% ethanol extract showed enhancement of xanthine oxidase inhibition and DPPH scavenging effect in vitro. 3. According to anti-fatigue effect in the scale of 5% weight loaded mouse swimming test, both water and 50% ethanol extract showed significant improvement of swimming time elongation respectively, and 50% ethanol extract induced a more positive result. 4. After swimming for 1% weight-loaded mouse. water extract and 50% ethanol showed significant anti-fatigue effect with manifestation of blood sampling among both of the intervention: 50% ethanol extract showed a greater result. Conclusions : 50% ethanol extract of Wongisaengmaek-san has more effective antioxidant activity and anti-fatigue than water extract.

We investigated the possibility of industrial application and economit process of high temperature fermentation by thermotolerant alcohol producing yeasts as previously reported. From the 20% glucose media, the RA-74-2 produced 11.8% (v/v) ethanol at $32^{\circ}C$ (0.5% inoculum) and 10.6% (v/v) ethanol at $40^{\circ}C$ (3% inoculum), respectively. Also, 11.3% (v/v) ethanol was produced for 96 hours in the temperature-gradient fermentation. These results suggest that the RA-74-2 could isuccessfully be applied to save the cooling water and energy in industrial scale without re-investment or modification of established fermentation systems. When potato starch was used as the substrate for the RA-74-2, high temperature fermentation above $40^{\circ}C$ was more appropriate for industrial utilization because organic nitrogen was not necessary to economical fermentation. As the naked barley media just prior to industrial inoculation, taken from the Poongkuk alcohol industry Co., were used, 9.6% (v/v) ethanol was produced at $40^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours in jar-fermentor scale (actually, 9.5-9.8% (v/v) ethanol was produced at 30~$32^{\circ}C$ for 100 hours in industrial scale). The ethanol productivity was increased by the high glucoamylase activity as well as the high metabolic ratio at $40^{\circ}C$ Therefore, if the thermotolerant yeast RA-74-2 would be used in industrial scale, we could obtain a high productivity and saving of the cooling water and energy. Meanwhile, the RA-912 produced 6%(v/v) ethanol in 10% glucose media at $45^{\circ}C$ and showed the less ethanol-tolerance compared with industrial strains. As the produced alcohol was recovered by the vacuum evaporator at $45^{\circ}C$ in 15% glucose media, the final fermentation ratio was enhanced (76% of theoretical yields). This suggest that a hyperproductive process could be achieved by a continuous input of the substrate and continuous recovery of the product under vacuum in high cell-density culture.

Ethanol extract of 20 botanicals in 3 concentrations i.e., 2.5%, 5% and 10% were evaluated for their efficacy to improve reproductive performance of mulberry silkworm (Bombyx mod L.) through feeding botanical enriched mulberry leaves during $2^{nd}$ day of $4^{th}$ age as well as $1^{st}$ and $3^{rd}$ day of $5^{th}$ age larvae. The preliminary screening was done by ranking the botanicals based on influence in most important reproductive contributing parameters such as single cocoon weight, effective rate of rearing, pupation rate, fecundity and recovery of eggs/kg cocoon. Five botanicals viz., Asparagus recemosus, Achyranthes aspera, Tribulus terrestris, Withania somnifera, Parthenium histerophorus ranked first were further evaluated at 8% 5% and 3% concentrations to confirm their effectiveness and standardize effective concentration. Among the rearing parameters, mature larval weight, shell ratio and number of cocoons/kg were not significantly influenced by the treatments. However, reproductive parameters such as effective rate of rearing (wt), pupation rate (%), fecundity (No.) and egg recovery (g)/kg cocoon were significantly (P<0.05) influenced by the botanicals. Higher fecundity and egg recovery were obtained on treatment with Withania somnifera irrespective of concentrations. However at 5% concentration, pupation rate, fecundity as well as egg recovery were found significantly higher than that of other concentrations, confirming its effectiveness for improving reproductive efficiency.

A reverse-phase, ion-pair high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the simultaneous quantative determination of pyridostigmine and its hydrolytic product, 3-hydroxy-N-methylpyridinium (HMP), is descrihed, The assay of pyridostigmine and HMP was linear in the range of amount from 24 to 60 mg/tablet and from 2.4 to 12.0 mg/tablet, respectively, with coefficient of variation (C.V.) of 0.05-0.12% (n=7) and 0.25-0.52% (n=5), respectively, and applicable conveniently even in the case of the mixture of pyridostigmine and HMP. Meanwhile, the conventional UV method gave inaccurate results for the aged pyridostigmine tablets. In the extraction of pyridostigmine from tablets prior to be assayed by HPLC, methanol was found to be more effective than ethanol or distilled water. Multiple extraction (four times) with methanol resulted in the full recovery of pyridostigmine, whereas ethanol gave 95% recovery even after four times extraction. Based on these results. the present method would be very useful for the accurate determination of pyridostigmine in the aged pyridostigmine tablets.
