Purified preparation of .betha.-amylase is obtained from radish root by the means of fractional precipitation with ammonium sulfate. Purified preparation saccharifies the starch, .betha.-maltose being formed. Dextrinization in the true sense does not take place. Hydrolysis ceases when approximately 50% of the theoretical yield of maltose is obtained and there remains a substance (to be .betha.-limit dextrin) which gives a blue-violet with iodine, no glucose being formed. Stability of preparation is optimal at pH 4-9 and more completely inactivated at 65.deg. in fifteen minutes. .betha.-Amylase of radish exhibits optimal activity at and near pH 5.0, which varied depending upon the buffer. Calcium and chloride ions do not effect the activities of enzyme. The results of experiments with oxidizing, alkylating and mercaptide-forming reagents which have been reported to be specific for sulfhydryl groups confirm that free sulfhydryl groups are essential to the activity of .betha.-amylase from radish.

An experimental study on the chromatographic separation of maltopentaose from a mixture, including glucose, maltose, maltotriose, and maltopentaose, was carried out in a nonionic polymeric sorbent column while varying the operating conditions, such as the solution pH, buffer contents, and isopropyl alcohol (1PA) concentration. Unlike the pH and buffer contents, the IPA concentration had a Significant impact on the single component chromatograms for maltopentaose. The retention times of the maltooligosaccharides with the nonionic polymeric sorbent Sp207 were in the following order: glucose < maltose < maltotriose < maltopentaose. From the experimental binary, ternary, and quaternary chromatograms, gradient chromatographic separation with a changing IPA concentration as a function of time was required to obtain high-purity maltopentaose and reduce the elution time.

GE974, isolated from Gyrophora esculenta, showed significant inhibitory effect on several ${\alpha}-glucosidases$ in vitro in previous study. In the present study, GE974 showed significant inhibitory effect on blood glucose elevation in mice loaded with maltose, sucrose, starch and lactose. Also, it exhibited similar effect in alloxan and streptozotocin induced diabetic mice, and genetic diabetic mice(db/db mice) loaded with maltose in dose dependent manner. These results suggest that GE974 may possess hypoglycemic effect that inhibit competitively ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ activities.

The thermal properties of ramie leaf ${\beta}$-amylase (RBA) were examined to develop a novel process for enzyme purification. The thermostability of RBA extract prepared from ramie leaf powder was examined at various temperatures. RBA activity decreased slightly, whereas other carbohydrate-active enzymes, such as $\small{D}$-enzyme, were rapidly inactivated during 30 min incubation at $60^{\circ}C$. When the heat-treated extract was incubated with various substrates, maltose was produced exclusively as the major product, whereas the untreated crude extract produced maltose and other maltooligosaccharides. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, fewer protein bands were observed for the heat-treated extract than the untreated extract, indicating that the thermostable RBA was partially purified and other thermolabile enzymes were eliminated. Thus, the treatment of the RBA extract at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min resulted in 5.4-fold purification with a recovery yield of 90%.

Korean traditional Sikhye is made from rice and malt, and It's main product Is maltose. However commercial Sikhye differs from traditional Sikhye because it's main component is sucrose. Sikhye industry faces many problems such as contamination of malt with microorganisms, low amylase activity of malt and technical difficulties. There is no commercial Sikhye which is only using rice and malt by these reasons. To produce the traditional Sikhye free from these problems, it is necessary to restrict the microorganisms of malt and to standardize the amylase activity of malt. In addition, the Introduction of effective control and sanitaric process is required. In Sikhye production. if $\beta$-amylase and isoamylase or pullulanase were added, starch could be saccharified 100% as maltose. Accordingly, this method brings us the low cost of Sikhye.

A novel inhibitor against maltose-producing a-amylase was prepared via stepwise degradation of a high molecular weight acarbose (HMWA) using Thermus maltogenic amylase (ThMA). The structure of the purified inhibitor was determined to be ${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl-${\alpha}$-acarviosinyl-D-glucopyranose (GlcAcvGlc). Progress curves of p-nitrophenyl-${\alpha}$-D-maltoside (PNPG2) hydrolysis by various amylolytic enzymes, including maltogenase (MGase), ThMA, and cyclodextrinase(CDase) I-5, in the presence of acarbose or GlcAcvGlc indicated a slow-binding mode of inhibition. The inhibition potency of GlcAcvGlc for MGase, ThMA, and CDase I-5 was 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of acarbose.

Micromonospora inyoensis 균주에 의한 sisomicin의 발효에서 항생물질의 생산성에 대한 여러 가지 탄소원의 영향을 batch culture를 이용하여 검토하였다. Starch, dextrin 및 maltose는 sisomicin의 생산에 좋은 탄소원으로 밝혀졌으나, glucose가 사용되었을 때 sisomicin 생산성은 carbon catabolite regulation에 기인하여 그게 감소되었다. 한편 sisomicin생합성에 대한 carbon catabolite regulation은 catabolite inhibition효과보다 주로 catabolite repression 효과에 좌우되었다.

From the crops Drosophila collected in Mt. Sokni and Mt.Kyeryong, 7 strains were isolated and then 6 species of wild yeast were identified. 1) Of these six species of wild yeasts two were to be of genus Saccharomyces(Ascosporgenous), two Torulopsis and two Trichosporon (both genuses of Asporogenous). 2) It was found that the fermentation of the wild yeasts isolated from Drosophila was much better than that of any others ; in particular, S. florentinus and S. cerevisiae were good in fermenting maltose. 3) After being cultivated in malt extract agar medium at $25^{\circ}C$ for 3 days, the vegetative cells were found to be big but Torulopsis cells small. 4) It was also observed that the species of yeasts used fro food by Drosophila largely depends on genus and species of Drophila. 5) Of the yeasts isolated from the Drosophila, Trichosporon capitatum and Torulopsis dattila, which has not previously been recorded, were identified. 6) It is believed, therfore, that S.florentinus, powerful in fermenting maltose, will be extremely useful in terms of industrial application.

For the production of pullulan from the high concentration of sugar, the utilization of sugars by a pullulan-producing fungus, Aureobasidium pullulans was examined. A. pullulans showed the different utilization patterns for sugars such as sucrose, maltose, and maltotriose. Especially for maltotriose, the hydrolysis of sugar was accompanied by a transferase activity. Glucose and maltose showed the inhibitory effect on the cell growth and the pullulan production at the sugar concentration higher than 0.28M, but sucrose showed the inhibitory effect at the sugar concentration higher than 0.14M. Among the sugars examined, sucrose gave the best result for the pullulan production. 27.5g/l of pullulan was obtained from 5% sucrose.

The hyperthermophilic archaebacterium Thermococcus profundus Isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent system, produced several amylolytic enzymes such as extracellular amylase and pullulanase, intracellular a-1,4-91ucosidase in respone to the presence of complex carbohydrates In the growth medium. This strain showed high activities on 0.5% maltose than on complex carbohydrates One of the amylases was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Toyopearl chromatography. The amylase exhibited maximal activity at pH 5.5 and 80$^{\circ}C$, and was stable in the range of pH 5.5 to 9.5 and up to 80$^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The enzyme activity was no dependence on Ca2+ and not inhibited by detergents. The amylase hydrolyzed soluble starch, amylose, amylopectin and glycogen to produce maltose and maltotriose with trace amounts of glucose, but not pullulan and ${\alpha}$-, ${\beta}$-, ${\gamma}$-cyclodextrin. Malto-oligosaccharides ranging from maltotetraose to maltoheptaose were hydrolyzed in an endo fashion.
