Streptomyces minoensis DMCJ-144 isolated from soil produces the ${\alpha}-amylase$ inhibitor. Optimum culture conditions for ${\alpha}-amylase$ inhibitor production of the strain were determined in this experiment. The optimum composition of the culture medium was studied by supplementing various carbon sources, nitrogen sources, vitamins, and metal salts to the basal medium containing 1% glucose, 0.1% asparagine, 0.005% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.005% $K_2HPO_4$, 0.005% NaCl. Other culture conditions such as the culture temperature, initial pH of the medium, aeration, and culture time were also investigated. When the strain was cultured in a 100 ml flask containing 20 ml of 2% glucose, 0.5% beef extract, 0.0002% riboflavin, 0.0002% thiamine HCI, 0.01% $ZnCl_2$, 0.005% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.005% $CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$, 0.005% NaCl, pH 7.2, 180 rpm at $30^{\circ}C$, the maximum production of the ${\alpha}-amylase$ inhibitor was observed after 5 days of the cultivation.

Various leading indicators of safety culture have been advocated for proactive actions as lagging indicators have limitations in reflecting the attitudes and behaviors due to their reactivity and low sensitivity. This study proposes a model of incident-reporting culture (IRC) and determines the influence of the components on incident-reporting rate (IRR) in order to develop proactive indicators of safety culture. A questionnaire survey was administered to 614 workers at a chemical company in Korea, and the internal psychological aspects were explored by using perceptions, attitude, and backgrounds. The relationship between these factors and IRR was quantitatively confirmed. The workers are more reluctant to report injury than property damage, the perception of severity is the most influencing factor, and most property damages are reported regardless of worker's willingness. These features should be prioritized when improving IRC, and the criteria of IRC need to be aligned with safety culture.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of hydrogen peroxide-producing Lactobacillus acidophilus V-20onthe replication of periodontal pathogens, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. When A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis were incubated alone and in the combination with L. acidophilus V-20, the viable cell numbers of A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis were compared between those cultures. The effect of S. mutans, E. durans, and L. lactis on the replication of A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis was also evaluated. The change of periodontal indexes(probine depth, gingival index, GCF volume) and the viable cell numbers of A. actinomycetemcomitans and black pigmented bacteroides in subgingival plaque sample were evaluated following gargling of fermented milk made from L. acidophilus V-20 for 1 month on patients with periodontal disease in maintenance phase. In the mixed culture of L. acidophilus V-20 and A. actinomycetemcomitans or P. gingivalis, the replication of A. actinomycetemcomitans or P. gingivalis wascompletely inhibited. But in the mixed culture of P. gingivalis and hydrogen peroxide-nonproducing Lactobacillus casei, the viable ceil numbers of P. gingivaliswas not decreased when compared with the numbers in the mixed culture of P. gingivalis and L. acidophilus V-20. In the mixed culture of A. actinomycetemcomitans and S. mutans, E. durans, or L. lactis, the viable cell number of A. actinomycetemcomitans was not almost changed when compared with the numbers in the culture of A. actinomycetemcomitans alone. And in the mixed culture of P. gingivalis and E. durans or L. lactis, the viable cell numbers of P. gingivaliswas not almost changed compared with the counts in the culture of P. gingivalis alone. But the replication of P. gingivalis was completely inhibited in the mixed culture of P. gingivalis and S. mutans. When the change of periodontal indexes following gargling of fermented milk was compared with baseline, probing depth and gingival index were not changed, but GCF volume was significantly decreased(p<0.05). And when the viable ceil numbers of microorganisms in subgingival plaque sample were compared with baseline, total viable ceil number was almost unchanged and the viable cell numbers of A. actinomycetemcomitans and black pigmented bacteroides were significantly decreased(p<0.05). These results suggest that L. acidophilus V-20 inhibit the replication of A. actinomycetemcomitans and black pigmented bacteroides by the formation of hydrogen peroxide.

S.G.Y.배지(skim milk, glucose, yeast extract)와 S.M.W.배지(skim milk whey). 배지에 P. freudenreichii KFCC 31227과 L. acidophilus KFCC 32825를 단독 또는 혼합배양 후, 두 균주의 생육 및 유기산 생성에 미치는 발효여액의 영향과 당의 변화 및 이용 효과를 검토한 결과, 자신의 발효여액보다는 상대편의 발효여액에서 그리고 단독배양보다는 혼합배양에서 생육이나 산 생성의 효과가 촉진되었으며, 배지중의 glucose 및 lactose 의 이용효과를 보면 P. freudenreich-ii KFCC 31227 단독 배양시는 lactose 를, L. acdophilus KFCC 32825 단독배양시는 glucose를 생육이나 산 생성에 더 잘 이용하였다. 또한 두 균주의 혼합배양시에는 단독배양에 비해 발효에 glucose 나 lactose 를 이용하는 시간이 더욱 단축되는 결과로 나타났으며, 이것은 혼합배양시 두 균주의 상호작용에 의한 synergism 효과에 기인된 것으로 생각된다.

Fibroblasts of large animals are easy to isolate and to maintain in vitro culture. Thus, these cells are extensively applied to donor cell for somatic cell nuclear transfer, and to substrate cells to generate induced pluripotent stem cells after transfection of requited genes to be essentially required for direct reprogramming. However, limited mitotic activity of fibroblasts to differentiate along a terminal lineage becomes restrictive for their versatile application. Recently, commercial culture medium and systems developed for primary cells are provided by manufactures. In this study, we examined whether one of the systems developed for primary fibroblasts of human are effective on porcine ear skin fibroblasts. To this end, we performed proliferation assay after five days culture in vitro of porcine fibroblasts in medium DMEM, which is generally used for fibroblasts culture, and medium M106 for human dermal fibroblasts, supplemented with various concentrations of FBS and LSGS contained mainly growth factors, respectively. Consequence was that presence of 15% FBS and 0.1 ${\times}$ concentrations of LSGS in DMEM showed most active proliferation of porcine fibroblasts.

Insulin, transferrin and selenium (ITS) complex is reported to improve in vitro development of oocytes and embryos. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of ITS during in vitro culture (IVC) of porcine parthenogenetic and nuclear transfer (NT) embryos on subsequent developmental capacity in vitro. The electrically activated oocytes were cultured in Porcine Zygote Medium (PZM-3) with various concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0%) of ITS for 7 days. Also, the electrically activated reconstructed embryos were cultured in PZM-3 with various concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0%) of ITS for 6 days. Addition of ITS to culture medium did not affect development of porcine parthenogenetic embryos in vitro. To test the effect of ITS on the in vitro development of porcine NT embryos, factorial experiments were also performed for in vitro maturation (IVM) medium (TCM-199) with or without 1% ITS and culture medium (PZM-3) with or without 0.5% ITS. Addition of 0.5% ITS to culture medium increased (p<0.05) the proportion of NT blastocysts compared with non-treated group. In contrast, addition of 1% ITS to culture medium was ineffective or had a detrimental effect. Also, addition of ITS only to maturation medium increased (p<0.05) the percentage of NT blastocysts formation compared with the control group. In conclusion, addition of ITS to IVM or IVC medium could improve subsequent blastocyst development of porcine NT embryos.

This study was carried out to select the appropriate medium (especially, carbon and nitrogen source, potassium phosphate and pH) for somatic embryogenesis in order to develop the rapid mass production system in suspension culture of Oplopanax elatus Nakai. Direct somatic embryos were obtained from root explants in the hormone free suspension culture (MS). Combination of $NH_4NO_3$ and $KNO_3$ at the ratio of 1650 (mg/${\ell}$) : 1900 (mg/${\ell}$) obtained the better result to produce somatic embryo in suspension culture. MS medium supplemented with $170mg/{\ell}$ $KH_2PO_4$. The addition of 1 and 3% sucrose was effective for formation of embryogenic callus. Therefore, this report will be helped to improve the establishment for suspension culture in Oplopanax elatus Nakai.

In hypoxic tissue conditions, pyruvate can not enter the Krebs cycle and lactic acid, produced from pyruvate, accumulates to induce lactic acidosis. Pyruvate, However, can also be converted to alanine by glutamate pyruvate transaminase, that could be enhanced by glutamate. Therefore, it would be a fundamental measure to treat the lactic acidosis in tissue hypoxic conditions when one can convert the accumulated lactic acid, through pyruvate, to alanine. To test the above hypothesis, we induced a lactic acidosis in cats and the effect of glutamate on recovery of acid base state and removal of the lactic acid from blood were assessed and the results were compared with those of bicarbonate administration, which is one of the most frequently used conventional measure for correction of the acid base state during lactic acidosis. The results were that glutamate and combined glutamate bicarbonate solutions not only restored the acid base status completely from the lactic acidosis in an hour or two, but also restored the blood level of lactate partially. We concluded that administration of glutamate solution to convert pyruvate into alanine is effective in preventing lactic acid accumulation and treating lactic acidosis.
