  • Individual starter culture were inoculated into liquid medium and incubated at $40^{\circ}C$ for 16 hours. Whole cell were obtained and evaluated for ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity using orthonitrophenyl-${\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$ (ONPG) as substrate. S. thermophilus had more ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity than other Lactobacilli did. To study the effect of storage temprature on enzyme activity of yoghurt, some samples of cultured yoghurt were stored under refrigeration $(4^{\circ}C)$, and the others under room temperature $(23^{\circ}C)$. At $4^{\circ}C$, yoghurt had ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity and many viable bacteria in 1 month. After 20 days, yoghurt had maximum ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity. At $23^{\circ}C$, yoghurt had ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity by 5 days. As this experiment shown ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity was ascribed to viable bacteria, especially S. thermophillus. Commercial yoghurt had lower ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity. There were considerable variations with regard to the lactose hydrolyzing capabilities of commercial yoghurt samples.

  • The most effective conditions of in vitro culture were studied for mass propagation of Pteris cretica 'Wilsonii'. Spores of the species germinated within 7 weeks. The greatest proliferation was obtained with Knop and Hyponex media, but growth was more effective in Hyponex medium. MS medium induced necrosis of prothalli in all strength of nitrogen and sucrose except in case of 0% sucrose. Hyponex medium supplemented with 1% sucrose and 0.6% agar promoted propagation and growth of prothalli. In Hyponex medium, optimal inoculation method was homogenization, but in MS medium dividing colonies of prothalli was more effective. Culturing on solid medium was more effective than liquid culture method. Liquid culture induced necrosis of prothalli. Shaking cultured prothalli showed good growth, but propagation was inhibited compared to those cultured on solid medium.

  • The suspension culture of an anchorage-dependent cell line (Bok-l) from Bombina orientalis was successful in respects of cost and efficiency. The amount of cells obtained from the suspension culture was almost equivalent to that from the anchorage-dependent culture. This result shows the possibility of suspension culture for scale-up. The cells in suspension produced an antibacterial peptide as much as anchorage-dependent cells did. The cell growth ($6.0\times10^6cells/m\ell$) and viability (>80%) at 10 rpm were higher than that at 0 rpm ($1.9\times10^6cells/m\ell$, 65~80%) and 30 rpm ($1.8\times10^6cells/m\ell$ 40~76%). The size of cells became smaller at the agitation rate of 30 rpm. The antibacterial activities of cell extracts from suspension cultured cells were confirmed against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria by the inhibition zone assay and the liquid growth inhibition assay.

  • Plant regeneration was accomplished from protoplast culture of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Taebaeg). Embryogenic callus was induced from mature seed on MS medium containing 5 mM proline, 2.5 mg/L 2,4-D, 30 g/L sucrose in the dark at 28$^{\circ}C$ and used to establish embryogenic cell suspension culture. Suspension cells were subcultured every one week in N6 medium supplemented with 5 mM proline, 200 mg/L casein hydrolysate, 2.5 mg/L 2,4-D and amino acids of AA medium. Suspension cultures were composed of cells that were densely cytoplasmic, potentially embryogenic and were at least maintained for more than 6 months in liquid medium. Protoplasts were isolated from fast-growing suspension culture cells and cultured in a slightly modified KpR medium by mixed nurse culture. Isolated protoplasts began to divide within 5~7 days and thereafter, protoplast-derived calli were sequentially transferred to callus proliferating medium that soft agar MS medium contained 2 mg/L 2,4-D and produced distinct embryogenic cells. Microcolonies were then transferred to solid medium which consisted of MS medium containing 5 mg/L kinetin, 1 mg/L NAA, 1 mg/L ABA, 30 g/L sucrose and 10 g/L sorbitol under fluorescent light. Mulitple shoots of 4~5 per callus emerged and were transferred to hormone-free MS medium for root initiation. Thereafter, The plantlets were transferred to pots of soil to mature in the culture room.

  • The effects of liquid spawn to sawdust substrate on the growth of Flammulina velutipes were conducted for two years. The duration of optimal incubation for preculture and main culture of liquid spawn was 4 days and 6 days, respectively. When using liquid spawn, the application time for the first pinhead formation was similar with sawdust spawn, and incubation time of sawdust substrate was variable with liquid spawn and inoculum quantity. But, the overall yield of mushroom fruitbody was increased by using liquid spawn, excepting sesame hull extract medium.

  • Seismic isolation is a well-known method to mitigate the earthquake effects on structures by increasing their fundamental natural periods at the expense of larger displacements in the structural system. In this paper, the seismic response of isolated and fixed base vertical, cylindrical, liquid storage tanks is investigated using a Finite Element Model (FEM), taking into account fluid-structure interaction effects. Three vertical, cylindrical tanks with different ratios of height to radius (H/R = 2.6, 1.0 and 0.3) are numerically analyzed and the results of response-history analysis, including base shear, overturning moment and free surface displacement are reported for isolated and non-isolated tanks. Isolated tanks equipped by lead rubber bearings isolators and the bearing are modeled by using a non-linear spring in FEM model. It is observed that the seismic isolation of liquid storage tanks is quite effective and the response of isolated tanks is significantly influenced by the system parameters such as their fundamental frequencies and the aspect ratio of the tanks. However, the base isolation does not significantly affect the surface wave height and even it can causes adverse effects on the free surface sloshing motion.

  • This experiments were carrid out to examine the effects of liquid medium addition in same vessels on shoot elongation and rooting, and soil survival of plantlets after the shoot cluster sections of Spathiphyllum floribundum 'Cupid' were pre-cultured. The shoot clusters with 3 to 4 small shoots were proliferated on LS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L BA for 8 weeks, and then 15 mL of various kinds of liquid medium was added in the same vessels. The addition of 15 mL liquid medium containing l/2 MS macro elements, 50 g/L sucrose and 5.0∼10.0 g/L activated charcoal was significantly stimulated the elongation and rooting of proliferated shoots. The medium addition was resulted in the enhanced soil survival of plantlets.
