저염분 순치기간에 먹이를 섭취함으로서 얻을 수 있는 초기 유생의 생리적 변화는 다음과 같이 요약할 수 있다. 하루 동안의 순치기간에 염분농도에 따른 유생의 생존율은 차이를 보였지만 각 염분구간별 먹이섭취 유무에 따른 생존효과는 유사하였다. 그러나 먹이섭취 시 유생이 에너지원으로 활용할 수 있는 cholesterol, triglyceride의 증가가 있었으며 삼투압에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 glucose 농도가 유의적으로 증가하였다. 또한 저염분 순치기간 동안에 스트레스, 조직손상 및 대사작용의 지표가 되는 BUN과 creatine의 감소가 있었다. 먹이섭취로 인한 소화효소의 활성이 먹이를 섭취한 실험구 모두에서 증가하였다. 그러므로 유생발달과 함께 중요한 소화, 순환, 생식기관이 형성되며 탈피 성장을 위한 신진대사가 빠르게 진행되는 유생시기에 저염분 순치가 효율적으로 이루어져 향후 지속적인 성장을 유도하기 위해서는 먹이를 섭취하는 것이 더 효과적인 것으로 판단되었다.

The chitinase-producing strain TKU008 was isolated from soil in Taiwan, and it was identified as a new species of Pseudomonas. The culture condition suitable for production of chitinase was found to be shaking at $30^{\circ}C$ for 4 days in 100 ml of medium containing 1% shrimp and crab shell powder, 0.1% $K_2HPO_4$, and 0.05% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ (pH 7). The TKU008 chitinase was suppressed by the simultaneously existing protease, which also showed the maximum activity at the fourth day of incubation. The molecular mass of the chitinase was estimated to be 40 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH, optimum temperature, pH stability, and thermal stability of the chitinase were pH 7, $50^{\circ}C$, pH 6-7, and <$50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The chitinase was completely inhibited by $Mn^{2+}$ and $Cu^{2+}$. The results of peptide mass mapping showed that 11 tryptic peptides of the chitinase were identical to the chitinase CW from Bacillus cereus (GenBank Accession No. gi 45827175) with a 32% sequence coverage.

자연계로부터 분리한 효모중에서 새우젓으로부터 분리한 효모균주 504D가 alkaline 조건에서 가장 우수한 proteinase 생산성을 보여 분류동정하였다. 분리효모의 형태학적 특성은 주로 영양세포로 출아증식을 하였으나, citric acid가 함유된 MM 배지에서만 위균사를 형성하였고, N-acetylglucosamin과 ${\beta}$-D-glucose가 첨가된 MM 배지에서만 진균사를 형성하였다. 유성적으로 자낭포자를 형성함으로써 반자낭균류이었고, 무성적으로 출아포자 및 분절 포자를 형성하였다. 생리생화학적인 특성으로 대부분의 탄소원과 nitrate 및 nitrate를 이용하지 못하였으나 일부 유기산과 알콜류를 이용하였다. 세포지방산을 분석한 결과, 불포화지방산 53.67%와 포화지방산 14.58%로 나타났으며, 대조균들에는 관찰되지 않는 C17:1이 관찰되었다. 전체적인 실험결과에서 분리균은 균사형성능과 세포지방산의 조성에서 약간의 차이를 제외하면 대조균 Saccharomycopsis lipolytica KCCM 12495 및 KCCM 35426의 모든 특성들과 거의 동일하여 분리효모 504D를 Yarrowia lipolytica로 동정하였다.

Jeot-gal is a traditional Korean fermented seafood and has long been used for seasoning. We isolated 188 strains from shrimp, anchovy, and yellow corvina Jeot-gal, and screened sixteen strains that showed strong fibrinolytic activities on a fibrin plate. Among those strains, the strain that had the largest halo zone was chosen and identified as Bacillus licheniformis by using 16S rDNA sequencing and an API CHB kit. The fibrinolytic activity of Bacillus licheniformis was characterized and designated as bpKJ-31. The active component of bpKJ-31 was identified as a 37 kDa protein, designated bacillopeptidase F, by internal peptide mapping and N-terminal sequencing. The optimum activity of bpKJ-31 was shown at pH 9 and $40^{\circ}C$, with a chromogenic substrate for plasmin. It had high degrading activity for the $B{\beta}$-chain and $A{\alpha}$-chain of fibrin(ogen), and also acted on thrombin, but not skim milk and casein. The amidolytic activity of bpKJ-31 was inhibited by 1 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride, but 1 mM EDTA did not affect the enzyme activity, indicating that bpKJ-31 is an alkaline serine protease, like a plasmin. The bpKJ-31 showed approximately 14.3% higher fibrinolytic activity than the plasmin. These features of bpKJ-31 make it attractive as a health-promoting biomaterial.

Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) causes severe economic loss in crop productivity of both agriculture and horticulture crops in Korea. The previous surveys showed that naturally available biopolymer material - chitosan (CS), which is from shrimp cells, reduced CMV accumulation on pepper. To improve the antiviral activity of CS, it was synthesized to form phosphate cross-linked chitosan (PCS) and compared with the original CS. Initially, the activity of CS and PCS (0.01%, 0.05%, and 0.1% concentration) compound against PMMoV infection and replication was tested using a half-leaf assay on Nicotiana glutinosa leaves. The total number of local lesions represented on a leaf of N. glutinosa were counted and analyzed with phosphate buffer treated leaves as a negative control. The leaves treated with a 0.1% concentration of CS or PCS compounds exhibited an inhibition effect by 40-75% compared with the control leaves. The same treatment significantly reduced about 40% CMV accumulation measured by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and increased the relative expression levels of the NPR1, PR-1, cysteine protease inhibitor gene, LOX, PAL, SRC2, CRF3 and ERF4 genes analyzed by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, in chili pepper plants.

Bacillus SW1-1 is a probiotic isolated from shrimp intestines. We investigated the effects of Bacillus SW1-1 coated diets on the growth, feed utilization, innate immunity, hematological parameters and resistance to Edwardsiella tarda in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). A commercial diet was used as the control (AP0) and two other diets were prepared by coating 0.25% (AP25) or 0.50% (AP50) probiotic powder which contains 1.0 × 10⁷ CFU/g Bacillus SW1-1. Four replicate groups of olive flounder (153 ± 2 g) were fed one of the diets for 12 weeks. Growth performance and feed utilization of the fish were not significantly affected by the dietary Bacillus SW1-1. After the challenge with E. tarda, AP50 group showed significantly higher survival than AP0 and AP25 groups. Innate immunity and anti-oxidant capacity of the fish were not significantly affected after the feeding trial. However, after the E. tarda challenge, the innate immune parameters (immunoglobulin, lysozyme and anti-protease) were significantly improved in fish fed AP25 and AP50 diets compared to those in fish fed AP0 diet. After the challenge test, significantly lower glucose level was observed in AP50 group compared to AP0 group. These results indicate that dietary supplementation of Bacillus SW1-1 could increase the disease resistance of olive flounder against E. tarda infection. The optimum coating levels of Bacillus SW1-1 needs to be further elucidated.
