The simple Langmuir isotherm is frequently employed to describe the equilibrium behavior of protein adsorption on a wide variety of adsorbents. The two adjustable parameters of the Langmuir isotherm - the saturation capacity, or $q_m$, and the dissociation constant, $K_d$ - are usually estimated by fitting the isotherm equation to the equilibrium data acquired from batch equilibration experiments. In this study, we have evaluated the possibility of estimating $q_m$ and $K_d$ for the adsorption of bovine serum albumin to a cation exchanger using batch kinetic data. A rate model predicated on the kinetic form of the Langmuir isotherm, with three adjustable parameters ($q_m,\;K_d$, and a rate constant), was fitted to a single kinetic profile. The value of $q_m$ determined as the result of this approach was quantitatively consistent with the $q_m$ value derived from the traditional batch equilibrium data. However, the $K_d$ value could not be retrieved from the kinetic profile, as the model fit proved insensitive to this parameter. Sensitivity analysis provided significant insight into the identifiability of the three model parameters.

Cephalosporium 배양시 균체의 형태학적 측면을 고려한 cephalosporin C 생합성에 대한 모델식을 제안하였다. 제한기질로 glucose와 methionine을 고려한 double-substrate 모델을 설정하였는데 여기서 glucose는 균체의 증식 정도를, methionine은 균체의 증식속도를 제어하게 된다. Cephalosporin C의 생산은 균체의 형태학적 분화와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 한편 cephalosporin C의 생산성을 증대시키기 위해 모델식을 유가식 배양에 응용하였다.

유전자 재조합된 동물 세포의 유가 배양시 $1.85\times 10^{-10}$(mmole/cell/h)의 비 glucose 소비속도와 $4.7\times 10^{-7}(\mu g/ceil/h)$의 erythropoetin (EPO)비 생산속도를 유지할 수 있었다. 또한 이같은 배양에서 회분 및 연속배양에서 보다 높은 세포수를 얻었으며 전 배양이 유사 안정상태에 도달하는 배양 후기에는 glutamolysis가 생육 공정에 매우 중요한 역활을 하고 있음이 확이됐다. 유가 배양시 13(mmloe/l)의 glucose 농도에서 생육 제한 현상이 일어났으며, 이같은 농도에 도달할 때까지는 glucose의 농도가 증가함에 따라 배양시간의 경과와 함께 EPO 생산성이 증가했다.

In this study, we investigated the performance of an immobilized ${\beta}$-galactosidase inclusion bodies-containing Escherichia coli cell reactor, where the cells were immobilized in alginate beads, which were then used in repeated-batch operations for the hydrolysis of o-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-galactoside or lactose over the long-term. In particular, in the Tris buffer system, disintegration of the alginate beads was not observed during the operation, which was observed for the phosphate buffer system. The o-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-galactoside hydrolysis was operated successfully up to about 80 h, and the runs were successfully repeated at least eight times. In addition, hydrolysis of lactose was successfully carried out up to 240 h. Using Western blotting analyses, it was verified that the ${\beta}$-galactosidase inclusion bodies were sustained in the alginate beads during the repeated-batch operations. Consequently, we experimentally verified that ${\beta}$-galactosidase inclusion bodies-containing Escherichia coli cells could be used in a repeated-batch reactor as a biocatalyst for the hydrolysis of o-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-galactoside or lactose. It is probable that this approach can be applied to enzymatic synthesis reactions for other biotechnology applications, particularly reactions that require long-term and stable operation.

무전해 Ni-Cu-B 폐 도금액의 재사용에 대해 소정의 조건에서 조사하였다. 아연화처리한 후 니켈 촉매의 처리는 니켈 촉매처리를 하지 않았을 때 보다 도금시간이 연장되었다. Batch type에서 새로 제조한 도금액에 폐 도금액을 40% 첨가하여도 무전해 Ni-Cu-B 폐 도금액의 재사용이 가능하였다. 새로 제조한 도금액에 소모된 도금액의 성분을 연속적으로 보충하여 도금하면(continuous type), 보충하지 않았을 경우(batch type) 보다 도금시간이 6배 연장되었다. 새로 제조한 도금액에 폐 도금액 40%를 첨가하여 소모된 도금 액의 성분을 연속적으로 보충할 경우(continuous type)의 도금시간은 보충하지 않았을 경우(continuous type)의 도금시간 보다 2배 연장되었다. 도금층의 불량과 급격한 도금속도의 감소는 도금층의 Ni과 Cu의 성분 변화에 큰 영향을 미쳤다.

The gene encoding yeast pro-carboxypeptidase Y (pro-CPY) has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Most of the expressed pro-CPY was accumulated as cytoplasmic insoluble aggregates. In our previous study, active CPY was obtained by renaturation of entirely denatured pro-CPY followed by in vitro proteolytic processing with proteinase K along with the activation process. The same refolding process was performed to produce an active CPY from pro-CPY inclusion bodies with renaturation buffers containing proteinase K at different concentrations. The refolding efficiency decreased from $25\%\;to\;2\%$ in the renaturation buffers containing proteinase K at concentrations of $60{\mu}g/ml\;and\;0.6{\mu}g/mi$, respectively. In an attempt to increase the refolding efficiency with a lesser amount of proteinase K, a novel fed-batch refolding process was developed. In a fed-batch refolding, 99 ml of the renaturation buffer containing pro-CPY was gradually added into 1 ml of the renaturation buffer containing $60{\mu}g/ml$ of proteinase K to give a final proteinase K concentration of $0.6{\mu}g/ml$. The fed-batch refolding process resulted in a refolding efficiency of $18\%$, which corresponded to a 9-fold increase over that ($2\%$) in the batch process.

The production of a carotenoid astaxanthin, a growth-associated principal pigment, is limited in a batch cultivation, because a high glucose concentration severely inhibits the cell growth and also influences the carotenoid production. Therefore, a fermentation strategy including effective chemicals for the high-level production of cells and astaxanthin by a mutant strain Phaffia rhodozyma AJ-6-1 was developed in a fed-batch culture. First, a production medium for maximizing the cell and astaxanthin yields was formulated and optimized. Using this optimized medium, the highest cell and astaxanthin concentrations obtained were about 38.25 g/1 and 34.77 mg/1, respectively. In addition, an attempt was made to increase the amount of astaxanthin using effective chemicals such as ethanol and acetic acid, which are known at an inducer and/or precursor of carotenoid synthesis. When either 10g/1 ethanol or 5 g/1 acetic acid was added to investigate the resulting astaxanthin content, a relatively high astaxanthin concentration or 45.62 mg/l and 43.87 mg/1, respectively, was obtained, and the cell concentrations also increased slightly under these conditions. Therefore, these results imply that a fed-batch culture of the mutant strain P. rhodozyma AJ-6-1 could be effectively employed in the commercial production of astaxanthin, although the factors affecting the productivity remain to be elucidated.

In this study, nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) emission was compared between the operations of two different sequencing batch reactors, conventional sequencing batch reactor (CNVSBR) and simultaneous nitrification and denitrification sequencing batch reactor (SND-SBR), using synthetic wastewater. The CNV-SBR consisted of anoxic (denitrification) and aerobic phases, whereas the SND-SBR consisted of a microaerobic (low dissolved oxygen concentration) phase, which was achieved by intermittent aeration for simultaneous nitrification and denitrification. The CNV-SBR emitted 3.9 mg of $N_2O$-N in the denitrification phase and 1.6 mg of $N_2O$-N in the nitrification phase, resulting in a total emission of 5.5mg from 432mg of $NH_4^+$-N input. In contrast, the SND-SBR emitted 26.2mg of $N_2O$-N under the microaerobic condition, which was about 5 times higher than the emission obtained with the CNV-SBR at the same $NH_4^+$-N input. From the $N_2O$ yield based on $NH_4^+$-N input, the microaerobic condition produced the highest yield (6.1%), followed by the anoxic (0.9%) and aerobic (0.4%) conditions. It is thought that an appropriate dissolved oxygen level is critical for reducing $N_2O$ emission during nitrification and denitrification at wastewater treatment plants.

네트워크 시뮬레이터인 NS-2(Network Simulator 2)는 다양한 인터넷 프로토콜을 분석 할 수 있는 이산 사건 시뮬레이터로 데이터 처리량과 패킷 지연 및 전력 소모 등을 구할 수 있다. 그러나 NS-2를 사용하여 실험 시 네트워크 토폴로지의 설정이 변경 될 때마다 Tcl 스크립트를 통해 단일적으로 밖에 대응하지 못한다는 불편함이 존재한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 멀티프로세싱 기법의 NS-2 Batch Job 시스템을 제안한다. 쉘(Bash) 스크립트로 NS-2 내부 구조의 간섭 없이 자동화 일괄 작업(Batch Job) 시스템을 모듈 구조로 구현 및 적용시켰다. 또한 실험의 시간 효율을 극대화시키기 위해 멀티프로세싱 기법을 이용하여, 하드웨어 성능의 부하가 걸리지 않는 선에서 NS-2 시뮬레이션을 다중 처리할 수 있도록 만들었다. 성능 비교분석 결과, 제안하는 Batch Job 시스템을 적용하면 기존에 NS-2를 이용한 실험에 걸리는 시간에 비해 소요시간이 평균 48% 감소한 결과를 볼 수 있다. 이는 하드웨어 성능이 향상된다면, 부하가 걸리지 않는 상한까지 더 많은 개수의 NS-2 프로세스를 실행시킬 수 있기 때문에 더욱 큰 시간 효율을 보여줄 수 있다.

This paper presents a privacy-preserving data aggregation scheme deals with the multidimensional data. It is essential that the multidimensional data is rarely mentioned in all researches on smart grid. We use the Paillier Cryptosystem and blinding factor technique to encrypt the multidimensional data as a whole and take advantage of the homomorphic property of the Paillier Cryptosystem to achieve data aggregation. Signature and efficient batch verification have also been applied into our scheme for data integrity and quick verification. And the efficient batch verification only requires 2 pairing operations. Our scheme also supports fault tolerance which means that even some smart meters don't work, our scheme can still work well. In addition, we give two extensions of our scheme. One is that our scheme can be used to compute a fixed user's time-of-use electricity bill. The other is that our scheme is able to effectively and quickly deal with the dynamic user situation. In security analysis, we prove the detailed unforgeability and security of batch verification, and briefly introduce other security features. Performance analysis shows that our scheme has lower computational complexity and communication overhead than existing schemes.
