Protein hydrolysate that shows physiological function such as antioxidant, suppression of hypertension, immunodulatory, alleviation of pain, and antimicrobial activity has been known as playing important role like hormone. This study was performed to optimize the hydrolysis of the wing's meat of Yosan-Ogae by a commercial protease. The ranges of processes were the reaction temperature of 40 to $60^{\circ}C$, pH 6 to 8, and enzyme concentration 1 to 3%(w/v). As a result, the optimization of process was determined at temperature of $48-50^{\circ}C$, pH of 7.0-7.2, and enzyme concentration of 3%(w/v), and degree of hydrolysis was 68 to 69% at above conditions. The molecular weight of hydrolysate was distributed to 500-1,200 Da and showed typical peptides. The amino acids of peptides showing presumably antioxidant activity such as histidine, proline, methionine, cystein, tyrosine, tryptophan, phenylalanine comprised about 43.07%. The glutamic acid was 13.6%. Therefore, we expect that those products are useful as functional food ingredients.

For the effective utilization of skipjack tuna viscera, a study was carried out to investigate the applicability of viscera protein hydrolysate (VPH) as a protein supplement in the processing of imitation sauce and bread. The optimum extraction and hydrolyzation conditions for the production of viscera protein concentrate (VPC) and viscera protein hydrolysate (VPH) were determined. Boiled viscera could be extracted by ethyl alcohol without significant deterioration as a raw material for the further processing. High quality of VPH could be obtained by hydrolysis with 1% pepsin under its optimum condition $(pH\;1.65,\;37^{\circ}C)$. The solubilities of VPC and VPH were 40% and 90%, respectively, and the essential amino acid contents in two products were 48.7% and 63.2%, respectively. Especially, the content of taurine, a physiologically important amino acid, was 9.4% in VPH. In experimental preparations of imitation sauce and bread, panel test showed that the supplementation of 10% of VPH in imitation sauce and $3{\sim}5%$ of VPH in bread was well accepted in sensory characteristics such as color, flavor, taste and texture.

In this study, we evaluated optimal conditions for ethanol production of the spruce hydrolysate (SH) obtained from diethyl oxalate pretreatment. Fermentable sugar concentration in SH was 29.04 g/${\ell}$ except arabinose. Monosaccharides obtained from the oligomer degradation were mainly mannose (39.26 g/${\ell}$) and galactose (12.83 g/${\ell}$). Concentration of 5-HMF and furfural which are inhibitors on ethanol fermentation were 0.09 g/${\ell}$ and 0.04 g/${\ell}$ respectively. Concentration of acetic acid and total phenolic compounds in SH were 1.4 g/${\ell}$ and 2.83 g/${\ell}$. Ethanol production using hydrolysate was 11.7 g/${\ell}$ at optimal pH 6.0 after 48 h. Specific ethanol production was 0.15 (g/(${\ell}^*h$)) at pH 5.0 and 5.5. while that was 0.24 (g/(${\ell}^*h$)) at pH 6.0. Specific ethanol production has difference depend on initial pH for fermentation. Ethanol production was 14.3 g/${\ell}$ after 48 h when xylanase 20 IU was added in SH for degradation of oligomer during fermentation. It implied that ethanol production increased by 22.2% compare with control (without xylanase).

An isolate, 90-GT-129 was found to produce antibiotics with a selective inhibitory activity against Streptococcus pyogenes and Xanthomonas sp. The isolate formed a gray spiral aerial spore mass with smooth surface. Analysis of the cell wall acid hydrolysate of the isolate revealed presence of LL-di-aminopimelic acid, which indicates that the isolate belongs to a cell wall type Ⅰ actinomycetes. Cultural and physiological characteristics of the isolate placed it in Streptomyces rochei synonym cluster. A comparison of the isolate with 26 reference strains of Streptomyces rochei synonym demonstrated differences in physiological and cultural characteristics.

The strain BY-445 which produces new inhihitors of ${\alpha}$-amylase was isolated from a soil sample and identified. The aerial hyphae of this strain develope in the from of open spirals. The spore chain of BY-445 strain appears in spiral shape with spiny surface. Melanoid and soulble pigments were not observed. Gelatin was liquefied, and skin milk and starch was also hydrolyzed. The isolate contained LL-diaminopimelic acid in its cell wall hydrolysate. The content of fatty acid 16:iso, 15:0 anteiso and 16:0 was 25:30, 16.19 and 13.16%, respectively. BY-445 strain was closely related to Streptomyces violaceusinger but it was different from this strain in some cultural and physiological characteristics. This strain was, therefore, designated as Streptomyces sp. BY 445.

As a part of studies on the quality control of crude drug preparation (So-Shi-Ho-Tang), index components of Glycyrrhizae Radix were identified by TLC and quantified by HPLC. Specific red spot (Rf=0.47) was identified in acid hydrolysate of glycosidic fraction on silica gel plate with benzene/ethyl acetate (1 : 1, v/v). The content of glycyrrhizin was determined by quantification of glycyrrhetinic acid by HPLC on ${\mu}-Bondapak\;C_{18}$ column with $MeOH/H_2O/HAc$ (78 : 19 : 3, v/v). Its recovery rate in the extract granules, compared to the content in the Glycyrrhizae Radix, was $83.3{\pm}0.7%$.

Cell cultures of Cayratia trifolia (Vitaceae), a tropical lianas, were maintained in Murashige and Skoog's medium containing $0.25mg\;1^{-1}$ NAA, $0.2mg\;1^{-1}$ kinetin and casein hydrolysate $250mg\;1^{-1}$. Cell suspension cultures of C. trifolia accumulate stilbenes (piceid, resveratrol, viniferin, ampelopsin), which on elicitation by any of $500{\mu}M$ salicylic acid, $100{\mu}M$ methyl jasmonate, $500{\mu}M$ ethrel and $500mg\;1^{-1}$ yeast extract, added on the 7th day, were enhanced by 3- to 6-fold ($5-11mg\;1^{-1}$) by the 15th day.

Biological activities of Antheraea yamamai silk fiborin powder were examined. It is showed about 75% of antioxidation activity compared to the reference ascorbic acid. And it lowered blood glucose level down from 550 mg/dl to 300 mg/dl by serving with wild silk protein.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) was used to demonstrate cross-linking of peptides induced by transglutaminase. The presence of ε-( Υ-glutamyl)lysine isopeptide cross-link in the acid hydrolysate of the cross-linking reaction mixture was also demonstrated by MALDI-TOF-MS without prior separation. MALDI-TOF-MS quickly provided peptide mass maps after pronase digestion of the cross-linked peptide adduct, which enabled us to monitor the hydrolytic sequence. Pronase appears to preferentially hydrolyze peptide bonds distant from the cross-link before hydrolyzing peptide bonds around the cross-link. The results suggest that pronase digestion followed by MALDI-TOF-MS could be used for determination of amino acid sequence around a modification site.

In this study, we investigated optimal reaction conditions for furfural production from lignocellulosic biomass by two-stage acid treatment. Furfural produced by this method was recovered using XAD-4 resin. Oxalic and sulfuric acid were used as catalysts for the first stage of treatment. The concentration of xylose in the hydrolysate obtained from the first stage was $18.86g/{\ell}$ with oxalic acid and $19.35g/{\ell}$ with sulfuric acid. The concentration of oligosaccharide was relatively high when sulfuric acid was used. Maximum yield of furfural, that is, 55.10% ($6.71g/{\ell}$), was obtained when oxalic acid was used for the first stage and $0.1m{\ell}$ of sulfuric acid was used for the second stage of treatment for 90 min. Furfural production yield increased with increasing the reaction time. Most of the furfural produced by this two-stage treatment method was recovered using XAD-4 resin.
