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.

A bacterial strain, designated as WY22, producing extracellular chitinase was isolated from the soil around the Youngduck area, after enrichment culture in a medium containing $1{\%}$ (w/v) wet colloidal chitin as a sole carbon source. The isolate was identified as a strain of Bacillus sp. based on its morphological and physiological characteristics. It was observed that Bacillus sp. WY22 could inhibit the growth of Fusarium oxysporum with hyphal extention-inhibition assay on potato dextrose agar plate supplemented with $1{\%}$ collidal chitin. Optimum culture conditions of Bacillus sp. WY22 were examined for chitinase production in a chitin medium. High level production of chitinase was observed not only in the chitin medium but in a medium supplemented with $1{\%}$ N-glucosamine or lactose instead of chitin. The optimum concentrations of colloidal chitin and yeast extract were 3.0 and $0.5{\%}$, and the optimum culture conditions for initial pH of medium and temperature were 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively, for the production of chitinase.

In the process of oyster mushroom production, loading work of culture medium needs the most intensive labor power. Therefore, development of culture medium machine causes to reduce the manpower and cost. The main objective of this study is to develop the culture medium loading machine and investigate the optimal operation conditions and to evaluate the economic value of the machine. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Optimum transporting velocity of the conveyor was 0.61 m/s 2. Optimum speed of blower was 3183 rpm at the transporting velocity of 0.61 m/s with the loading quantity of 3.41 t/hr 3. Recommendable opening area ratio of pressure controller was 1/2 at the blower speed of 3183 rpm and the transporting velocity of 0.61 m/s 4. The break even point resulted in $240\;m^2$ of cultivating area compared to the method of with portable workbench, and $350\;m^2$ of cultivating area compared to the method of with a tractor and a truck.

The in vitro culture of rice panicles is a culturing technique only panicle without other organs in culture solution containing organic substance, so that would be useful to study how assimilate supply affects grain development and maturation. To find the optimum stage for in vitro culture, rice panicles grown in greenhouse were sampled periodically after anthesis and cultured in nutrient medium. The panicles older than 1 weeks after anthesis had produced normal grains. Grain-filling was apparently dependent upon sucrose concentration (8-12 %) in medium, but not affected by nitrogen concentration supplied with glutamine. As far as rice panicle was supplied with sucrose and N in nutrient medium, grains continued accumulation of dry matter and maturation regardless to light condition. Considerably, grain-filling was improved when panicles were positioned horizontally inside flask, so that each grain was partially submerged to nutrient medium.

The optimum medium composition for the production of L-tryptophan with Klebsiella pnuemoniae pheA tyrA trpE trpR/pSC 101-trp$^{+}$ and the effect of precusors in the optimum medium were studied. The specific growth rate in the optimum medium was almost the same as that in the basal medium, the former showing 1.01 and the latter 1.07 hr $$^{-1}$, but the produced tryptophan was increased 45% in the optimum medium. The maximum amount of produced tryptophan was 159 mg/l within 14 hours. Tryptophan production was ceased by casamino acid addition over 4 g/l in medium, but cell maSS increased with its addition. Indole and anthranilate as precusors had toxic effect on growth and tryptophan production at experimented concentration range (over 20 mg/l), but L-serine had good effect on tryptophan production, resulting in 175 mg/l tryptophan within 14 hours.

A morphologically different form of Ganoderma lucidum was isolated from a cultivator's farm, and its optimum growth conditions were determined. A major difference in their morphology was color of fruit bodies. Fruit bodies of the mutant were white wherase those of normal Ganoderma lucidum were red. Spores of the mutant were global and mycelia were thin. Mycelial growth of this white mutant was favorable on potato sucrose agar medium, and optimum pH of the medium was 5.5.

Some Chlorella species grow heterotrophically with organic substrate in dark condition. However, heterotrophic Chlorella species are limited and their optimum culture conditions are not fully known. In this study, three heterotrophic Chlorella species, two strains (C4-3 and C4-4) of C. vulgaris and one Chlorella sp. (C4-8) were examined on optimum culture conditions such as carbon source, temperature, and concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus in Jaworski's medium (JM). And the growth and fatty acid composition of Chlorella were analyzed. For three heterotrophic Chlorella species, glucose (1-2%) as a carbon source only increased the growth and the range of optimum culture temperature was $26-28^{\circ}C$. Doubled concentrations of the nitrogen or phosphorus in JM medium also improved the growth of Chlorella. Chlorella cultured heterotrophically showed significantly higher growth rate and bigger cell size than those autotrophically did. C. vulgaris (C4-3) cultured heterotrophically showed the highest biomass in dry weight ($0.8g\;L^{-1}$) among three species. With respect to fatty acid composition, the contents of C16:0 and n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA) were significantly higher in autotrophic Chlorella than in heterotrophic one and those of total lipid were not different between different concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus in JM medium. Among three Chlorella species in this study, C. vulgaris (C4-3) appeared to be the most ideal heterotrophic Chlorella species for industrial application since it had a high biomass and lipid content.

이 연구의 목적은 미세조류인 Chlamydomonas reinhardtii을 이용하여 수소 및 유기물의 생산을 위한 배양 조건을 최적화 하는 것이다. 세 가지 종의 균주를 조사하여 C. reinhardtii UTEX 90이 수소 생산성과 유기물 생산성 면에서 가장 우수함을 확인하였다. 최적 이산화탄소 농도 범위는 1-3% 였으며 두 종류의 미세조류 배양에 있어 대표적인 배지 (Bristol's media and TAP media)를 조사한 결과 TAP 배지에서의 세포성장이 Bristol 배지보다 더 우수함을 확인하였다. 3%의 이산화탄소 농도와 TAP 배지에서 균주를 배양하여 최대 수소 생산($0.5\mu$ mol/mg DCW)을 얻었다. 그러나 전체 유기물 생산은 Bristol 배지에서 두 배 이상 생산되었다.

This study investigated the cultural characteristics of Shimizuomyces paradoxus in different nutritional and environmental conditions. The highest mycelial growth was observed in Schizophyllum (mushroom) genetics complete medium plus yeast extract agar medium, and the optimal temperature and pH were $25^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0, respectively. The optimal carbon and nitrogen sources were 1% dextrose and 1% peptone in agar. However, in liquid culture the highest dry mycelium weight was found for the potato dextrose agar and potato sucrose agar broths. The optimum inoculum size was five mycelial discs (5 mm) per 100 mL of broth, and the optimum liquid culture period was 25 days. This is the first ever report of S. paradoxus cultural characteristics.

To optimize the culture conditions for Beauveria bassiana 726, the effects of culture medium, pH, and temperature on mycelium and spore production were investigated. The optimum temperature and pH for the cultivation of B. bassiana 726 were 28 $^{\circ}C$ and 5.0, respectively. The optimized medium was composed of 1.0~2.0% total sugar from molasses, 0.5% corn steep liquor and 0.05% KH$_2$PO$_4$. In the cultivation of B. bassiana 726 with the optimum medium, the specific growth rate and substrate utilization were well-fitted with the proposed kinetic model in the shake flask and stirred tank reactor. When the fed-batch cultivation using carbon suorce, nitrogen source, and mineral salt as a feeding medium was compared with batch cultivation in stirred tank reactor, mycelium (12.7 g/L) and spore production (5.4$\times$$10^8/mL$) were enhanced up to 110% and 85%, respectively.
