The proteolytic bacteria were isolated from the market foods such as ground beef, cooked shrimp meat, perch fillet, oyster meat, beef with textured vegetable protein and fish digest distributed at supermarket in Corvallis, Oregon, U.S.A. Two hundred and twenty-eight strains($30.8\%$) have proteolytic activity from 740 strains isolated from the examined samples and the strongest proteolytic strain among them was identified as a Streptococcus sp. Its maximum growth was showed at about 6 hours culture at $37^{\circ}C$ with shaking incubator in the medium added $0.15\%$ potassium phosphate monobasic and $0.4\%$ potassium phosphate dibasic, while the strongest activity of its extracellular protease was observed after 7 hours culture. The exoenzyme produced by the Streptococcus sp. was observed as a metal chelator sensitive protease, which are strongly inhibited by EDTA and o-phenanthroline but not affected by phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate.

Effects of nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) and potassium (K) on the shoot and bulb growth of wild garlic ($Allium$ $victorialis$ var. $platyphyllum$) were studied by adopting $in$ $vitro$ culture. These macronutrients influenced the growth of both the shoot and bulb of garlic depending upon their application doses. A minimum of 3% potassium nitrate ($KNO_3$) as a source of nitrogen was found to be critical for shoot elongation while higher concentrations were inhibitory. Garlic bulb growth was profuse on the usual $KNO_3$ strength and sucrose (7%), followed by $KNO_3$ (9.4 mM) supplement. On providing 41.22 mM ammonium nitrate ($NH_4NO_3$) as nitrogen source highest shoot growth was observed while 82.45 mM $NH_4NO_3$ as a source of nitrogen supported high bulb growth. With regard to potassium a good shoot growth was observed in medium that contained 0.31 mM $KH_2PO_4$ and 3% sucrose, while bulb growth was high on 2.5 mM $KH_2PO_4$ and 7% sucrose. These experiments may thus direct the development of excellent growth conditions for the commercial production of edible wild garlic.

A description of simple, isocratic and precise reversed phase HPLC methods is given for simultaneous quantification of pholcodine and ephedrine hydrochloride together with either carbinoxamine maleate or terfenadine in antitussive-antihistaminic oral pharmaceutical formulations. Separations were carried out on X-Terra and symmetry shield C18 column $(250\;{\times}\;4.6\;mm,\;5\;{\mu}m)$. The used isocratic elution systems were either $0.02\;M\;KH_2PO_4-acetonitrile$ in the ratio of 75 : 25 and pH adjusted to 7.70 with orthophosphoric acid or sodium hydroxide, for syrup (method A), or 0.02 octanesulphonic acid sodium salt solution-acetonitrile-acetic acid in the ratio of 75 : 25 : 0.5 for suspension (method B). The elution of both mixtures was achieved with a flow rate of 1 ml/min. Detection was carried out by UV absorbance at wavelengths of 220 and 250 nm for syrup and suspension, respectively. The quantification of the components in synthetic mixtures and actual syrup and suspension were calculated using the internal standard technique with metoclopramide HCl and codeine phosphate as internal standards (IS), respectively. The methods, for both mixtures, were validated and met all the requirements for the quality control analysis recommended by FDA and ICH.

Experiments were carried out to find the possibility of an economic production of single cell protein(SCP) in mixed culture by Cellulomonas sp. KL-6 and a second organism. The second organism, strain LI-10, was isolated from the large intestines of a mouse. 1. When these strains were mixed, cell growth and carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) activity were increased to about 63% and 161%, respectively compared with that of single culture of strain KL-6. We found the mixed culture as a proper method of degradation of cellulose in our study. 2. Strain LI-10 was identified as E. coli. 3. This strain produced trace amounts of cellobiose, but glucose was not found in detectable amounts in the filter paper(FP) medium. 4. $CaCO_3$ injected in the medium at the ratio of 0.1% not only enhanced cell growth but also was effective as an acid neutralizing agent. 5. When this organism was cultured under the optimal medium (glucose 0.1%, $NH_4Cl$ 0.1%, yeast extract 2.0%, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.1%, KCl 0.05%, pH 7.2 and a temperature 30$\circ$C) for 5 days, a cell mass produced 1.18 g/l. The results showed the increase of cell mass up to 300% compared to 0.28 g/l produced in CMC medium.

A $\beta$-Galactosidase producing strain, Alkalophilic Bacillus sp, YS-309, has been isolated from soil sample. The strain was capable of producing large amount of intracellular $\beta$-galactosidase in the alkaline media rather than in the neutral media. The preferable medium composition has been determined to be as follows: 0.5% lactose, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.5% soybean meal, 0.1% KH$_2$PO$_4$, 0.02% MgSO$_4$7$H_2O$ 0,0.6% Na$_2$CO$_3$ (pH 9.9). The enzyme was produced by lactose or IPTG as in-ducer. But both Enzyme synthesis and cellular growth were decreased when lactose was added at the higher concentrations than 1.5% (v/v).

A bacterial strain, designated T116, degrading terephthalic acid (TPA) was isolated from the soil around Taegu industrial area into which dye works wastewater flow. The isolate was identified as pseudomonas sp. based on its morphological and physiological characteristics. Degradation of TPA by the strain T116 was confirmed with UV scanning and HPLC. About 90% and 98% of TPA were degraded after 36 and 60 hours, respectively, during the culture in a liquid medium containing 0.1% TPA. Addition of KH2PO4 at a final concentration of 100ppm enhanced the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate about 50% from dye works wastewater by Pseudomonas sp. T116. Optimum pH and temperature for COD reduction from wastewater were 7.0 and 3$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The bacterium was applied to the continuous culture for the treatment of dye works wastewater whose TPA concentration and CODMn were 2,200ppm and 1,620ppm, respectively. It was observed that 90-95% of COD was eliminated after 4 days culture in the continuous culture with a retention time of 37 or 47 hours.

An advance d and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for determination of omeparzole in human plasma has been developed. After omeprazole was extracted from plasma with diethylether, the organic phase was transferred to another tube and trapped back with 0.1 N NaOH solution. The alkaline aqueous layer was injected into a reversed-phase C8 column. Lansoprazole was used as an internal standard. The mobile phase consisted of 30% of acetonitrile and 70% of 0.2 M $ KH_{2}PO_{4}$, pH 7.0. Recoveries of the analytes and internal standard were >75.48%. The coefficients of variation of intra- and inter-day assay were <5.78 and 4.59% for plasma samples. The detection limit in plasma was 2 ng/ml. The clinical applicability of this assay method was evaluated by determining plasma concentration-time courses of the respective analytes in 24 healthy volunteers after oral administration 40 mg of omeprazole. The present assay is considered to be simple, accurate, economical and suitable for the study of the kinetic disposition of omeprazole in the body.

In order to elucidate the possibility of artificial production of p. ferulae by solid-state culture, the optimization of culture conditions was carried out. When $NH_4H_2PO_4$ and $CaCO_3$ were used in the cultures using test tube with 30 g of Populus sawdust at $25^{\circ}C{\pm}1$ in the dark, the favored mycelial growth was observed with $1\%$ of $NH_4H_2PO_4$ and the production of polysaccharide was 7.85 mg/100 mg of mycelium with $1\%$ of $CaCO_3$. The mixtures of $80\%$ of Populus Sawdust and $20\%$ of rice bran at $60\%$ of water content were determined to be optimal for the production of fruiting bodies in the sawdust culture. When three treatments containing various ratios of garlic powder were conducted, yields of fruiting bodies were drasti[ally higher than those of Synthetic mixture without garlic powder The highest yield (143 g/bag) was obtained with $7\%$ garlic powder. The yield of synthetic mixture containing $7\%$ of garlic powder was $83\%$ higher than that of Sawdust culture. The reason why garlic powder did support growth was not clear but it is possible that garlic powder might contain effective components for the formation of fruiting body. The optimal synthetic mixture composition consisted of cotton seed $77\%$, lime $6.4\%,\;K_2HPO_4\;0.2\%,\;KH_2PO_4\;0.2\%,\;CaHPO_4\;0.2\%$, corn flour $4\%$, wheat flour $5\%$, and garlic pow-der $7\%$.
