In order to optimize the carrot hairy root culture for SOD production, a fed-batch culture of hairy roots was performed in a bioreactor. Maximum SOD activity was obtained when the hairy roots were transferred to the MS medium containing 110 g/1 concentration of sucrose. By controlling the sucrose concentration (70 g/1 sucrose for growth and 110 g/1 sucrose far production, respectively) In a two-stage fed-batch culture, 29 g/1 of the hairy roots was obtained based on the final dry mass. The volumetrically determined SOD activity and productivity in the fed-batch culture were about 6 times higher than those from the flask culture containing sucrose at 30 g/1 concentration.

Organic grape was generally produced in rainshield or plastic greenhouse culture while most of fruits were produced in open field. But little attention has been given to soil properties with different culture facilities in organic grape cultivation. This study was conducted to investigate soil physico-chemical properties of organic grapes farms with different culture facilities and soil management practices. Organic fertilizer was main resource to manage soil at organic grapes farms. Organic grapes farms were applied with total amount of organic fertilizer at one time, either at basal or additional fertilization, whereas conventional grapes farms applied with split fertilization. Bulk density and penetration resistance of soil were lower at both rainshield and green manure-applied plastic greenhouse cultures than those at clean plastic greenhouse culture. Especially, in plastic greenhouse, sod culture with natural weed after green manure application was more effective than general sod culture in improving physical properties of the rhizosphere. The contents of organic matter, available phosphate and exchangeable potassium tended to increase in the soils applied with green manure, and the difference of soil chemical properties were significant between rainshield and plastic greenhouse cultures. The optimum soil management was required in plastic greenhouse because pH, available phosphate and exchangeable cations reached over optimum range. Consequently, the ground cover management is the key factor to affect the chemical properties as well as soil physical properties extensively in plastic greenhouse. It is found that sod culture with natural weed after green manure application resulted in enhancement of utilization efficiency of nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potassium in soil in comparison with general sod culture.

비교적 연구가 미비한 Fe-SOD의 효소화학적 특성 및 그 생리적 기능을 검토하기 위해 여러 종의 세균을 대상으로하여 Fe-SOD의 고생산균주를 screening하였다. 그 결과 Fe-SOD를 대량 세포내에 생성하는 Pseudomonas polycolor를 선발하여, 이 균주의 효소생산 최적 배양조건을 설정하였다. 본 균주가 생산하는 효소는 특이적인 저해제의 작용양식에 의해 Fe을 cofactor로 요구하는 Fe-SOD임이 밝혀졌다. SOD 생성을 위한 최적배지조성은 glycerin 3%, polypeptone 1%, meat extract 0.5%, KCI 0.2%이었고, 최적 초발 pH는 9.0이었으며, 이 조건에서 500ml용 shaking flask에 배지 100ml를 넣어 15시간 전 후 배양했을 경우가 효소생산량은 최대가 되었다.

산소의 존재 유ㆍ무 등과 같은 배양 환경의 변화에 따라 통성 혐기성 광합성 세균인 Rhodobacter sphaerodes B-230이 만들어내는 산소 유도체에 작용하는 효소의 특성을 조사한 결과 세포내 SOD는 호기적 배양에서는 초기 배양액의 pH가 7일 때, 혐기적 배양에서는pH 8일 때 활성이 높은 반면 세포외 방출 SOD는 두 배양조건에서 모두 약산성인 pH 6에서 활성이 높았다. Catalase는 두 조건 모두 중성 부근에서 최고의 활성을 보였으며, 산성 pH 부위에서는 급격히 활성이 낮아졌다. Mn-SOD의 활성 유도제인 methyl viologen을 첨가했을 때 두 조건 모두에서 성장의 저해를 보였으며, 배지에 철 이온을 첨가하여 배양 하였을 때 호기적 조건에서만 두 배 이상 활성이 증가되었다. 혐기적 조건에서는 전체적인 활성이 낮아 금속이온의 추가적인 첨가에도 더 이상 활성이 유도되지 않았다. Mn-SOD 활성 저해제인 $NaN_3$와 CuZn-SOD활성 저해제인 NaCN를 배양액에 첨가했을 때 NaCN은 두 가지 배양 조건에서 생성되는 SOD 모두를 저해하지 않았으며, $NaN_3$는 혐기적 배양조건에서만 0.3 mM 이상에서 급격한 SOD활성의 저해를 가져왔다. 따라서 Rhodobacter sphaeroides D-230도 혐기적 배양 조건에서 Mn-SOD가 생성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며,호기적 조건에서는 Fe-SOD가 생성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Catalase의 활성도 두 가지 배양조건 모두에서 methy1 viologen에 의해 활성이 유도되었으며, NaCN와 $NaN_3$에 의해서 급격히 저해되었다.

The superoxide dismutase (SOD) in Lactococcus lactis was measured quantitatively and qualitatively under various culture conditions. The L. lactis SOD was induced by oxidative stress. As the concentration of paraquat to produce superoxide radicals increased, the growth of L. lactis decreased with concomitant increase of SOD activity. The SOD activity was found to be growth-phase dependent: when aerobically grown cells entered to the stationary phase, the activity increased gradually until the late stationary phase. From inhibition studies, L. lactis SOD was found to be insensitive to KCN and $H_2O_2$ which are known to inhibit Cu/ZnSOD and FeSOD, respectively. Moreover, as the concentration of manganese in the medium increased, the activity of SOD also increased. These data strongly suggested that L. lactis possessed a single manganese-containing SOD (MnSOD). Finally, a putative sod gene fragment of 510 bp was identified in L. lactis using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with degenerate primers designed from the deduced DNA sequences of known SOD genes.

Using superoxide dismutase (SOD)-deficient mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the oxidative stresses induced by 0.1 mM of copper ion $(Cu^{++})$ was studied. In aerobic culture condition, yeasts lacking MnSOD (mitochondrial SOD) showed more significant growth retardation than CuZnSOD (cytoplasmic SOD)-deficient yeasts. However, not so big differences in growth pattern of those mutants compared withwild type were observed under anaerobic condition. It was found that, under aerobic condition, the supplementation of 0.1 mM copper ioh:(Cu") into culture medium caused the remarkable increase of CuZnSOD but not so significant change in MnSOD. It was also observed that catalase activities appeared to be relatively high in the presence of copper ion in spite of the remarkable reduction of glutathion peroxidase in CuZnSOD-deficient yeasts, but the slight increments of catalase and glutathion peroxidase were detected in MnSOD-deficient strains. It implies that the lack of cytoplasmic SOD could be compensated mainly by catalase. However, these phenomena resulted in the significantincrease of cellular lipid peroxides content in CuZnSOD-deficient yeasts and the slight increment of lipid peroxides in MNSOD-deficient cells. In anaerobic cultivation supplementing copper ion, the cellular enzyme activities of catalase and glutathion peroxidase in SOD-deficient yeasts were slightly increased without any significant changes of lipid peroxides in cell membrane. It suggests that a little amount of free radicals generated by copper ion under anaerobic condition could be sufficiently overcome by catalase as well as glutathion peroxidase.dase.

Stamens of Mesua ferrea L. are a well-known herbal drug used in Indian System of Traditional Medicine to treat various diseases. The claimed activity of this plant part is necessitated to investigate antioxidant and hepatoprotective activity. Authenticated plant sample was extracted with hexane, ethanol (EtOH) and water (aq.) using ASE 100 accelerated solvent extractor. Antioxidant activity was evaluated by means of different in vitro assays. Hepatoprotective effect was investigated on carbon tetrachloride induced oxidative stress in liver slice culture model. Cytotoxic marker lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) released in culture medium and the activity of lipid peroxidation along with antioxidant enzymes (AOEs) namely superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione reductase (GR) were estimated. Hexane and EtOH extracts were significantly inhibited DPPH, NO, SOD and $ABTS^+$ radical in dose dependent manner. The trade of phenol content was: aq. extract < hexane extract < EtOH extract. A significant correlation was shown by total phenol content and free radical scavenging activity of extracts. The culture system treated with hexane extract, EtOH extract or ascorbic acid exhibited significant depletion in LDH, lipid peroxidation, antioxidative enzymes SOD, CAT and GR. Hexane extract and EtOH extracts of stamen of M. ferrea protected liver slice culture cells by alleviating oxidative stress induced damage to liver cells.

This study was designed to develop the in vitro culture systemof mammalian preimplantation embryos. We proposed mouse fetal fibroblast cells (MFFC) from 14∼15 day mouse fetus. Zygotes from superovulated female ICR mice were cultured 96 hrs in simple defined media (T6) or on the monolayer of MFFC. In addition, to evaluate the action of the co-culture of MFFC, various diluted superoxide dismutase antibody (SOD-Ab) was supplemented into the monolayer of MFFC and zygotes were cultrued in presence or absence of SOD-Ab. The developmental rates of zygotes were significantly increased in co-culture with MFFC compared to the control. The rates of zygotes to the 4-cell stage in media treated with EDTA were higher than those cultured in MFFC but the proportions of morula and blastocyst were not differ between EDTA and MFFC. Interestingly blastocysts in co-culture with MFFC possessed as many as blastomere as those developing in vivo, but blastocysts cultured with EDTA had significantly fewer blastomeres. In addition, the treatment of SOD-Ab suppressed the beneficial effect of MFFC. Therefore, our findings suggest that co-cultrue system using MFFC may have an advantage in the development of mouse zygotes as well as embryonic differentiation.
