The optimal conditions and properties for the immobilization of marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2 have been determined. For the high productioon of biosurfactant, Na-alginate, PVA, modified PVA were used as a carrier. The optimal emulsifying activity on immobilized Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2 showed 1036Unit (about 2.2g/L biosurfactant) in Basal salt medium(B.S.M.) at $25^{\circ}C$, 100rpm. Ca-alginate was selected the optimal bead among PVA, modified PVA and Ca-alginate. The optimal cell load in alginate bead was 10 gCWW/100g carrier. As the results of incubation of immobilized 5g Ca-alginate bead (conditions; 3% alginate, bead diameter: 2.3mm, 10% cell load) in 50m1 production medium, The emulsifying activity of 1407Unit, about 3.0g/L biosurfactant was obtained from immobilized cell after cultivation of 92hr at $25^{\circ}C$, 100rpm.

Arthrobacter simplex (ATCC 6946) was cultured, induced and immobilized in acrylamide polymer. The characteristics of the immobilized whole-cell enayme were studied using hydrocortisone as the substrate. The enzyme activity was increased during the incubation of the gel particle in 0.5％ peptone media. The ennzyme reaction kinetics of the Δ'-dehydrogenase (3-oxosteroid Δ'-oxydo reductase, E. C. 1.3.99.4) foliowed the Michaelis-Menten type. Km and Vm values were different significantly after immobilization of the cell. The optimum pH and temperature were changed, too. Nitrogen sources such as casitone, peptone or tryptone were good media for the enzyme reaction. And there was no need to add cofactors of the enzyme in the pre-sence of energy sources used in the test. The effect of metal ions on the enzyme activity was insignificant. Organic solvents were used increase the substrate concentration and there was no optimum solvent concentration depending on the substrate concentration.

Heliothis zea (HzAM1) insect cells were immobilized in microspheres by sodium-cellulosesulfate (NaCS) and polydiallyldimethylammoniumchloride (PDADMAC). The highest HzAMl cell density was $7.5{\times}10^7$ cells/mL in the microspheres. After infection of the immobilized cells by Heliothis zea single nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HzSNPV), the highest concentration of HzSNPV (polyhedral inclusion bodies: PIBs) produced was $2.87{\times}10^{10}$ PIBs/mL in the microspheres.

This study describes the sorbitol production with permeabilized cells of Zymomonas mobilis immobilized in Ca-alginate. Toluene treated cells lose glucose-fructose oxidoreductase activity due to leaking of enzyme from the cells. In order to prevent this leakage, the permeabilized cells were immobilized in alginate and chitin. No significant loss of enzyme activity was apparent during 210h operation in a continuous process. The productivity of the continuous process was estimated to be about 3.5g/l -h for sorbitol at dilution rate $0.2h^{-1}$.

Choristoneura fumiferana (Cf-2Cl) insect cells were cultured and immobilized by using cellulosesulfate (NaCS) and polydiallyldimethylammoniumchloride (PDADMAC). A concentration of CfMNPV (Choristoneura fumiferana multiple-mucleopolyhedrovirus) and a Cf-2Cl cell density in the microspheres have been achieved at the densities of $1.57\times10^{10}$ PIBs/ml and $7.5\times10^7$ cells/ml, respectively. Additionally, MTT-test was used to measure the viable cell density in the microspheres, and the confidence of MIT-test was investigated before and after baculovirus infection in the immobilized cell culture.

Heavy metal adsorption by microbial cells is an alternative to conventional methods of heavy metal removal and recovery from metal-bearing wastewater The waste Sac-chuomyces cerevisiae is an inexpensive, relatively available source of biomass for heavy metal biosorption. Biosorption was investigated by free and immobilized-S. cerevisiae. The order of biosorption capacity was Pb>Cu>Cd with batch system. The biosorption parameters had been determined for Pb with free , cells according to the Freundlich and Langmuir model. It was found that the data fitted reasonably well to the Freundlich model. The selective uptake of immobilized-S. cerevisiae was observed when all the metal ions were dissolved in a mixed metals solution(Pb, Cu, Cr and Cd). The biosorption of mixed metals solution by immobilized-cell was studied in packed bed reactor. The Pb uptake was Investigated in particular, as it represents one of the most widely distributed heavy metals in water. We also tested the desorption of Pb from immobilized-cell by us- ing HCI, $H_2SO_4$ and EDTA.

The production stability of high-yielding mutants of Streptomyces lincolnensis immobilized on celite beads was examined in repeated batch cultures. We also explored the feasibility of immobilization of vegetative mycelial cells on pre-wetted celite beads, which is practical method for cell immobilization. Repeated transfer of immobilized cells into fresh medium every 10 days increased productivity of immobilized cells and maximum concentration of lincomycin, 1007 $({\pm}256)$ mg/L, was obtained at the end of the ninth cycle. A 1.4-fold higher productivity was obtained in immobilized-cell culture than that obtained by suspended-cell culture. When pre-wetted beads were inoculated with vegetative mycelia and cultured a slightly higher amount of immobilized cells and lincomycin was obtained more than those obtained by culture of spores immobilized on dry beads. This result indicates that immobilization of mycelial cells on pre-wetted beads was readily available. This technique is simple and no additional facilities are required for cell immobilization.

An immobilized Trigonopsis variabilis cells having an high activity of D-amino acid oxidase(DAO) was used to convert CPC into GL-7-ACA. The optimal pH of the reaction system was 8.0-8.5, and the optimal temperature was 40$\circ$C. When immobilized cell was used repeatedly in semi-batchwise reaction, the system retained 80% of the initial activity after used of 12 times for over 12 hours. The storage stability of the immobilized cell was maintained for 30 days at 4$\circ$C. The CPC concentration for the maximal reaction rate was about 30 mM and 40 mM for free and immobilized cells, respectively. Substrate inhibition of CPC concentration more than 50 mM was overcomed by 20~25% by immobilization. Pure oxygen supply into reaction system was most efficient in D-amino acid oxidase reaction. Continuous conversion to GL-7-ACA from CPC has been developed with an bioreactor system containing immobilized T variabilis cells. By opera- tion of the reactor for 5 hours, the average conversion yield of >80% and GL-7-ACA production of 40~45 mM per hour could be obtained.

For the efficient production of 2, 5-diketo-gluconic acid (2, 5-DKG) by the immobilized cells of Erwinia herbicola, basic characteristics of 2, 5-DKG fermentation were analyzed and a process employing immobilized cell reactor was developed. The immobilized cells appeared to have diffusion limitation, and a maximum production of 2, 5-DKG was accomplished with 2 mm diameters of immobilized beads. Long-term stabilities of the immobilized cells could be maintained by addition of 1.75% (w/v) polypep- tone. Repeated batch fermentations with about 80 mol% of 2, 5-DKG yields were carried out six times in the fluidized bubble column reactors filled with immobilized cells at an aeration rate of 6 vvm.

A continuous fermentation system employing immobilized cells of Zymomonas mobilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied for the mass production of ethanol. Ethanol production by cells immobilized with Ca-alginate was better than those by cells immobilized with K-carrageenan. Maximum ethanol production employing a continuous system by cells immobilized with Ca-alginate was 77.5 $g.l^{-1}h^{-1}$ at a dilution rate of 1.85 $h^{-1}$ with 82% conversion rate for Z. mobilis while that was 40.2 $g.l^{-1}h^{-1}$ at a dilution rate of 0.92 $h^{-1}$ with 85% conversion rate for S. cerevisiae. These results suggest that Ca-alginate is a better cell immobilization matrix than K-carrageenan and that immobilized cells of Z. mobilis are more efficient than S. cerevisiae for ethanol production.
