Intermuscular fat is essential for enhancing the flavor and texture of cultured meat. Mesenchymal stem cells derived from intermuscular adipose tissues are a source of intermuscular fat. Therefore, as a step towards developing a platform to derive intermuscular fat from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for insertion between myofibrils in cultured beef, an advanced protocol of intermuscular adipose tissue dissociation effective to the isolation of MSCs from intermuscular adipose tissues was developed in cattle. To accomplish this, physical steps were added to the enzymatic dissociation of intermuscular adipose tissues, and the MSCs were established from primary cells dissociated with physical step-free and step-added enzymatic dissociation protocols. The application of a physical step (intensive shaking up) at 5 minutes intervals during enzymatic dissociation resulted in the greatest number of primary cells derived from intermuscular adipose tissues, showed effective formation of colony forming units-fibroblasts (CFU-Fs) from the retrieved primary cells, and generated MSCs with no increase in doubling time. Thus, this protocol will contribute to the stable supply of good quality adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) as a fat source for the production of marbled cultured beef.

The optimum conditions for growth and lipid production of Rhodotorula marina IFO 0879 were investigated. The optimum temperature and pH of cultivation was $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0-7.0, respectively. During shaking of the culture for 8 days at $30^{\circ}C$, the maximum cell biomass of Rh. marina was 9.82g per liter of the medium, and the lipid content obtained was 35.4(w/w) of the dry cell biomass. Lactose and glucose were the most effective carbon sources for the lipid production. Ammonium sulfate was found to be the most effective nitrogen in culture medium the growth of the yeast was retarded, whereas its growth was favored at high concentrations with decreased lipid yield. When lacose was added during fermentation, in the initial stage cell biomass and lipid production were lower than those of the control, but in the later stage the trend were reversed. The major fatty acids of yeast lipid were palmitic acid(20.3%), oleic acid(46.6%) and linoleic acid(16.2%)

1,2-propanediol-utilizing yeast, Y-1-4, was isolated from sludge sample by the enrichment culture technique. The product produced from 1,2-propanediol by the selected strain was identified as lactic acid by paper chromatography and infrared absorption spectrum. The strain assimilated ethanol, 1,2-propanediol, glycerine and glucose, but it produced lactic acid from 1,2-propanediol used as the sole carbon source. Under optimal conditions, the strain Y-1-4 was cultured with shaking at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 4days in the medium containing 1,2-propanediol 20.0g, NH$_4$Cl 5.0g, KH$_2$PO$_4$ 1.0g, MgSO$_4$.7$H_2O$ 0.5g, FeSO$_4$.7$H_2O$ 0.25g, yeast extract 0.4g, CaCO$_3$ 3. 0g and tap water to one liter, and then the yield of lactic acid was about 12. 1g per liter of the culture broth.

1. L-Tyrosine-${\alpha}$-ketoglutaric transaminase and p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid oxidase are distributed in Aspergillus oryzae. 2. L-Tyrosine oxidation in extracts of acetone powder, cell free extract and culture liquid of Aspergillus oryzae cultivated in the shaking culture are considerably accelerated by the addition of ${\alpha}$-ketoglutaric acid and then formation of glutamic acid was identified by chromatography method. 3. The roles of ${\alpha}$-ketoglutaric acid and pyridoxal phosphate have been shown to be an amino group acceptor in a transamination reaction. 4. Enzyme systems of an extracts of acetone powder and cell free extract also rapidly oxidized L-tyrosine and p-hydroxyphenlpyruvic acid to homogentisic acid. 5. The optimum pH for L-tyrosine-${\alpha}$-ketoglutaric acid transaminase was pH values of 6.0 and 6.5, and that for p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid oxidase was at pH values of 7.5.

Culture conditions of yellow pigment in Monascus sp. were studied. According to the studies of culture conditions optimum condition was found to be pH 4.5, 3 days of incubation with 3% of sucrose as carbon source, 0.2 ％ of yeast extract as nitrogen source and 75m1 of medium in the 500m1 erlenmyer flask by rotary shaking (rpm 180) at 180 r.p.m. Effective levels of inorganic compounds were found to be 0.25 % of potassium phosphate monobasic and 0.1 ％ of Magnesium sulfate.

In other to produce vinegar min citron (Citrusu junos), acetic acid bacteria were selected from several conventional vinegars, and total 25 acetic acid producing bacterial strains were isolated. Among the isolated strains, a strain was selected from the medium which showed the highest productivity of acetic acid. The strain was identified as Acetobacter sp V-16 and it cultural characteristics were also investigated in the medium with citron juice. Optimum temperature for the growth of Acetobacter sp. V-16 was $30^{\circ}\C$. The medium containing 2% acetic acid, 5% ethanol, and 30% citron juice was suitable for acetic acid production with Acetobacter sp. V-16. The acidity of culture medium was reached to 6.8% after 10 days shaking cultivation at $30^{\circ}\C$.

The glutathione contents of the selected mutants were investigated and found to be 6.1-15.8 mg/g-DCW. The glutathione content positively correlated with the antioxidant activity of the mutant strains ($R^2$=0.488). Furthermore, the glutathione content of the mutant S. cerevisiae Sa-59 was approximately 38% greater than that of the wild type strain and, therefore, this mutant strain was selected for glutathione production. The volumetric glutathione content in a shaking culture was increased by about 70% compared to the static culture. In addition, the specific glutathione content was increased by ~19%. The volumetric glutathione content and specific glutathione content were increased by approximately 16% and 66%, respectively, when 0.04% glutamate, 0.04% cysteine and 0.04% glycine were added. Furthermore, the highest antioxidant activity was 0.52 as absorbance unit at 700 nm.

For the probiotic feed production from residual food waste by using the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus, aerobic liquid fermentation was attempted at $35^{\circ}C$. After grinding finely, optimal fermentation conditions of the substrate was investigated in shaking incubator. By controlling water content yeast growth was studied at each different solid content of 5, 10 and 15% respectively. The most active growth of the yeast was shown at 10%. For the stimulation of the cell growth, mixed culture with Aspersillus oryzae was conducted in a 2 litre-jar fermenter. As the results, the yeast growth rate was increased, but the maximum viable cell count amounted was slightly higher as $3.5{\times}10^9/ml$ than single culture.

Chungkookjang fermenting Bacillus subtilis 028-1 strain suppressed the growth of Staphylococcus sp. LS2, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Candida albicans. B. subtilis 028-1 strain produced antibiotic effectively in the medium of 2% soybean meal and 1% maltose as a disaccharide, when the shaking was continued 15~18 h and the pH of culture medium was maintained under 6.5. The antibiotic activity was optimized when the initial pH of the culture medium of test strain was adjusted with weak alkali, was remained after 20 min of boiling and for more than 1 month in room temperature, and was weakened slowly by the digestion of chymotrypsin and papain. The molecular weight of the antibiotic was identified between 500 and 1,000 dalton by dialysis, and antibiotic substance was considered as not surfactin but a member of iturin family because of the absence of fibrinolytic activity.
