유용효소를 생산하는 균주를 가정하수로부터 분리하기 위하여 LBM, R2A, M9배지를 이용하여 다수의 균주를 분리하였다. 분리된 균주 중 1% tributyrin이 첨가된 배지에서 생육 활성대의 형성이 우수한 균주 1종을 최종적으로 선별하여 형태학적, 생리학적, 생화학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 16S rDNA 염기서열 분석결과 Acinetobacter Baumannii (99%)로 Acinetobacter 속에 속하는 균주임을 확인하고, Acinetobacter sp. BD5로 명명하였다. Acinetobacter sp. BD5는 $37^{\circ}C$와 $50^{\circ}C$에서 생육하는 것으로 보아 호열성 균주이며, 1% tributyrin과 oilve oil 첨가된 EL과 CE 고체배지와 Tween 20이 첨가된 LB 고체배지에서 생육활성대의 형성을 확인하여 이 균주가 lipolytic 효소를 생산하는 것으로 나타났다. 효소 활성의 최적 배양조건을 검토하고자 배양시간별 효소 활성을 측정한 결과, 배양 6시간 때인 대수 증식기에 가장 높은 효소활성을 나타내어 비교적 빠른 시간 내에 lipolytic 효소를 생성하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 효소활성의 최적 온도는 $60^{\circ}C$로 $70-80^{\circ}C$에서 70%이상의 잔존활성을 보이는 것으로 나타나 Acinetobacter sp. BD5는 호열성 균주로 이 균주가 생산하는 lipolytic 효소도 내열성을 보이는 것으로 생각된다. 최적 pH는 9.0이며, pH 9.8-10.6범위에서 50% 이상의 활성이 유지되어 alkaline lipolytic 효소인 것으로 생각되어진다. Acinetobacter sp. BD5가 생산하는 lipolytic 효소는 비교적 넓은 pH 범위와 고온에서 활성이 유지되는 것으로 보아 폐유분해, 세제 합성과 유기물질 합성 등 생물공학분야와 산업적으로 잠재적 가치가 있을 것으로 생각된다.

토양으로 부터 diaminododecane 자화균 DAD2-2주를 분리하여 검토한 결과 Corynebacterium속으로 동정되었으며 DAD2-2주의 alkane 유도체에 대한 생육특성조사에서 putrescine dihydrochloride, dodecanethiol, dodecane. laurylamine등은 탄소원으로 이용될 수 있었으나 thioanisole, decanedithiol, dicyanooctane, 1aurylcyanide, dichlorodecane등은 이용되지 못하였다. Emulgen 25ppm을 DAD배지에 첨가하였을 경우 DAD2-2주에 의한 diaminododecane 자화가 현저하게 촉진되었으며 diaminododecane자화시 생성되는 중간생성물은 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate로 동정되었다. 그러나 diaminododecane을 탄소원 뿐만 아니라 질소원으로도 이용하였을 경우에 있어서는 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 다른 생성물을 생성하였으며 diaminododecane 대신 glucose, putrescinc, n-dodecane을 생육기질로 이용하였을 때에도 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 다른 생성물을 생성하였다. 또한 resting cell을 이용하여 alkane 유도체를 co-oxidation시키는 과정에서도 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 상이한 생성물이 생성되었다.

Objective: The present study was done to clarify the effects of nicotine and nicotine tartrate on the mouse oocyte maturation in vitro. Methods: GV (germinal vesicle) oocytes were isolated from Graafian follicle of ovaries with sharp needles under a stereomicroscope from female mouse of ICR strain (4 weeks old). Collected oocytes were cultured for 17 hours at $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ in air and 100% humidified condition in incubator. New MHBS was the basic medium used in which nicotine, nicotine tartrate, and mecamylamine (antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor) were added depending on the experimental group. GV oocytes were cultured in one of these media. Results: Nicotine ($300{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) had no effects on GVBD (germinal vesicle breakdown) compared to the control, but increasing concentration of nicotine led to an decrease in the first polar body formation. However, nicotine ($10{\sim}500{\mu}M$) induced GVBD in a dose-dependent manner of GV oocytes in a medium containing dbcAMP. Nicotine tartrate ($50{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) had no effects on GVBD compared to the control but, increasing concentration of nicotine tartrate led to an decrease in the first polar body formation. Mecamylamine $10{\mu}M$ added to the medium containing nicotine ($300{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) showed higher percentage of the first polar body formation compared to the nicotine ($300{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) treatment group. Mecamylamine $10{\mu}M$ added to the medium containing nicotine tartrate ($50{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) showed higher percentage of the first polar body formation compared to the nicotine tartrate ($50{\mu}M{\sim}5mM$) treatment group. Conclusion: The present study suggest that nicotine and nicotine tartrate have the harmful effects on the meiotic maturation of the mouse oocytes in vitro. However, mecamylamine block harmful effects of nicotine and nictine tartrate.

Bacterial lysates have become a common ingredient for natural health care. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) could serve as potential candidates for lysate production: the lactic acids produced by LAB have been utilized for their moisturizing, antimicrobial, and rejuvenating effects, while other substances provide topical benefits and health effects for the skin. Our study aimed to obtain lysate from a LAB S. macedonicus MBF 10-2 through an optimized fermentation using the Response Surface Methodology. Strain MBF10-2 was cultivated in a 2L fermenter tank in de Man Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) medium and in plant-based peptone modified MRS, i.e. Soy-peptone and Vegitone. The duration and the medium composition (dextrose and soy peptone or proteose peptone) were adjusted to obtain an optimum production of cell lysate. Central Composite Design was employed for Design Expert 7.0.0 by adjusting 3 factors: dextrose (1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%), soy or proteose peptone (0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, 1.25% and 1.5%), and duration of fermentation (8, 10, 12 14, and 16 h for MRS-Soy peptone and 15, 17, 19, 21, and 23 h for MRS Vegitone). Bacteriocin-Like Inhibitor Substance activity of lysate and pH were used as indicators. The optimum condition for lysate production using MRS Soy Peptone and Vegitone are as follows: dextrose concentration 2.5%, plant-based peptone 1.25%, while optimum fermentation duration were 11.18 h (MRS Soy Peptone) and 17 h (MRS Vegitone) with a starter concentration of 10% at $OD_{600nm}$ $0.2{\pm}0.05$. However, the standard MRS medium produced better quality lysate compared to MRS plant-based peptones.

This study focuses on nitrification through a biological aerated filter (BAF) that is filled with a zeolite medium at low concentrations of ammonia. The zeolite medium consists of natural zeolite powder. The BAF is operated under two types of media, which are a ball-type zeolite medium and expanded poly propylene (EPP) medium. Nitrification occurred in the zeolite BAF (ZBAF) when the influent concentration of ammonia nitrogen was 3 mg L-1, but the BAF that was filled with an EPP medium did not experience nitrification. The ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency of ZBAF was 63.38% and the average nitrate nitrogen concentration was 1.746 mg/L. The ZBAF was tested again after a comparison experiment to treat pond water, and municipal wastewater mixed pond water. The ZBAF showed remarkable ammonia-nitrogen treatment at low concentration and low temperature. During this period, the average ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency was 64.56%. Especially, when water temperature decreased to 4.7℃, ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency remained 79%. On the other hand, the chemical-oxygen demand (COD) and phosphorus-removal trends were different. The COD and phosphorus did not show as efficient treatment as the ammonia-nitrogen treatment.

The effect of biotin on the growth and sporulation of Bacillus subtilis SNU816 was investigated. When B. subtilis SNU816 was cultured on glucose as a sole carbon source, the growth was retarded markedly and usually ceased at early log phawe. But by addition of biotin to this medium, normal, rapid growth was restored. The growth rate was increased proportionally according to the concentration of exogenous biotin until it reached to 0.05㎍/ml, at which about three fold rapid growth was achieved. Also biotin was required for optimum sporulation for it facilitated the complete utilization of both glucose(Glc) and glutamic acid(Glu). Without biotin in Glc+Glu medium, about 40% of glutamic acid was remained unutilized. The dipicolinic acid content of cells cultured in Glc+Glu medium without biotin was markedly small and sporulation was suppressed before free spore release. Since biotin could be partiallyreplaced by one of TCA cycle intermediates such as oxalacetic acid, citric acid, or glutamic acid in enhancing growth in Glc medium, it was postulated that this strain might have a defect in converting pyruvate to oxalacetate which process is known to be mediated by pyruvate carboxylase that requires biotin as a cofactor.

Glabridin is a well-known active isoflavone found in the root of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) that possess a wide range of biological activity. Plant cells, hairy roots, and fungal endophytes cultures are the most important alternative methods for plant resources conservation and sustainable production of natural compounds, which has received much attention in recent decades. In the present study, an efficient culture condition was optimized for the biomass accumulation and glabridin production from fungal endophyte Aspergillus eucalypticola SBU-11AE isolated from licorice root. Type of culture medium, range of pH, and licorice root extract (as an elicitor) were tested. The results showed that the highest and lowest biomass production was observed on PCB medium (6.43 ± 0.32 g/l) and peptone malt (5.85 + 0.11 g/l), respectively. The medium culture PCB was produced the highest level of glabridin (7.26 ± 0.44 mg/l), while the lowest level (4.47 ± 0.02 mg/l) was obtained from the medium peptone malt. The highest biomass (8.51 ± 0.43 g/l) and glabridin (8.30 ± 0.51 mg/l) production were observed from the PCB medium adjusted with pH = 6, while the lowest value of both traits was obtained from the same medium with pH = 7. The highest production of total glabridin (10.85 ± 0.84 mg/l) was also obtained from the culture medium treated with 100 mg/l of the plant root extract. This information can be interestingly used for the commercialization of glabridin production for further industrial applications.
