Alcaligenes eutrophus 균주로 poly-Beta-hydroxybutyrate(PHB) 생산을 위한 연속배양 공정의 성능에 미치는 희석비율, 주입 포도당 및 염화암모늄농도의 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 주입 기질농도가 일정할때( 주입 포도당농도=20g/l, 주입 염화암모늄농도=2g/l), 생체성장속도와 PHB생성속도는 희석비율이 각각 0.1, $0.06h^{-1}$에서 최고 값을 나타냈고, $0.13h^{-1}$에서 세포가 전부 배출되었다. 희석비율이 증가함에 따라 비PHB 생성속도는 계속 증가하였지만 PHB 축적비는 50%에서 25%로 감소하였다. 세포농도는 주입 염화암모늄농도가 2g/l일 때 최고값을 나타내었고, 그 이상의 농도에서는 감소하였다. 이 실험결과로 암모늄에 의한 기질저해가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 주입 포도당농도가 30g/l에서 세포농도는 최고값을 나타냈지만 PHB 농도는 계속 증가하였따. 모델속도식에 대한 매개변수는 도식적 방법과 매개변수 추정으로 구하였고 희석비율, 주입 포도당농도, 주입 염화암모늄농도의영향에 대하여 모사한 결과 실험데이타와 잘 일치하였다.

미생물 합성 poly[(R)3-hydroxybutyrate]](P(3HB))의 알칼리 및 효소 분해거동을 단결정과 Langmuir 단분자막을 모델시스템으로 하여 연구하였다. 단결정의 초기효소 및 알칼리 분해거동은 단결정의 장축에 대해 수직방향(b축)으로 분해가 일어났고 용융점 이하의 온도에서 열처리 또한 단결정의 b축을 따라 봉우리 형태의 형태학적 변화를 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과는 라멜라 단결정은 b축을 따라 불규칙한 영역을 가지고 있음을 의미하고 효소분해가 불규칙한 영역에서 선호적으로 일어난다고 설명할 수 있다. 한편, P(3HB), 단분자막의 효소 및 알칼리 분해경향은 분해매체와 표면압력에 크게 의존하였다. 알칼리 분해의 경우 낮은 표면압력에서도 분해를 나타내는 반면 효소 분해는 높은 표면 압력 하에서 분해거동을 나타내었다. 이러한 현상은 분자수준의 크기인 알칼리 분해매체는 P(3HB) 단분자막과 좁은 접촉면적(낮은 표면압력)에서도 활성을 보이는 반면 크기가 큰 분해효소는 보다 큰 활성 접촉면적(높은 표면압력)을 필요로 하는 것으로 판단된다.

The readily fermentable carbon sources in swine were acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid at the average concentrations of 7.2 g/L, 2.2 g/L and 2.7 g/L, respectively. The swine waste also contained excess nitrogen and other mineral sources. In shake flask experiments, the optimal range of cell growth for Azotobacter vinelandii UWD were 1.0∼3.5 g/L of acetic acid, 0.7∼2.0 g/L of propionic acid and 0.5∼2.0 g/L of butyric acid. A mixture of these three acids simulating two times diluted swine waste supported the best cell growth but the amount of carbon sources was limited. In shake flask and fermentor experiments, an addition of 30 g/L of glucose increased the final cell dry weight 8 times while the final poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) concentration increased 86 times compared with using acid mixture only. A. vinelandii UWD preferred organic acids in the sequence of acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and valeric acid.

The medium compositions of Alcaligenes eutrophus were optimized for increasing PHB productivity. It is very important to optimize the concentrations of inorganic salts and trace eleme- nts as well as carbon and nitrogen sources to maximize cell growth rate and productivity. The fed-batch culture of Alcaligenes eutrophus by dual feeding of ammonia water and glucose under optimized initial medium concentrations was carried out. Glucose was fed manually according to glucose consumption rate and ammonia water by pH-stat. The final cell concentrations and PHB content in 30 hours were 122 g/l and 65% of dry cell weight(yielding 79 g of PHB/l), respectively and 2.64 g/l/hr of PHB production rate was obtained.

Biodegradability of the $poly({\beta}-hydroxybutyrate-co-3 -hydroxyvalerate)$ [PHB/V] containing 0, 10 and 15mol% hydroxyvalerate [HV] was studied. Bioderadability of PHB/V was evaluated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 58 days and $55^{\circ}C$ for 33 days by monitoring the time-dependent changes in weight loss(erosion) of aerobic conditions in a temperature-controlled microcosms containing the earthworm cast($30^{\circ}C$) and compost ($55^{\circ}C$). It was found that PHB/V biodegradability occurred with increasing HV monomer concentration from 0 mol% to 15 mol%.

Poly-$\beta$-hydroxybutyrate(PHB) was biosynthesized using Alcaligenes sp. FL-027. Alcaligenes sp. FL-027 was cultivated by fed-batch methods, in order to promote cell growth and PHB accumulation with carbon source. The cells were first grown at 3$0^{\circ}C$ on the fermentor. The structure of biosynthesized PHB is investigated by the NMR, IR. The crystalline portions were identified through the use of DSC and X-ray diffractometer. The melting point was about 16$0^{\circ}C$ and the diffraction peaks of (020) and (110) were shown at 13$^{\circ}$ and 17$^{\circ}$, respectively.

In this study, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite films containing various content of GO were prepared using solution casting method. The effect of GO content on Young's modulus and dispersion of GO in PHBV matrix was investigated. Also, the thermomechanical properties, oxygen transmission rates and hydrolytic degradation of PHBV/GO nanocomposite films were studied. The addition of GO into PHBV improves the Young's modulus and decreases thermal expansion coefficient. The improvement can be mainly attributed to good dispersion of GO and interfacial interactions between PHBV and GO. Furthermore, PHBV/GO nanocomposite films show good oxygen barrier properties. PHBV/GO nanocomposites show lower hydrolytic degradation rates with increasing content of GO.

A novel and simple purification method for microbial $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyrate$ (PHS) was developed. Sodium hydroxide was found to be efficient for digesting cell materials. Initial biomass concentration, NaOH concentation, digestion time, and incubation temperature were optimized. When 40 g/l of biomass was incubated in 0.1 N NaOH at $30^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, PHB purity of 88.4% with a weight average molecular weight ($M_w$) of 770,000 and a polydispersity index (PI) of 2.4 was recovered with a yield of 90.8% from the biomass which initially contained PHB of a $M_w$ of 780,000 and a PI of 2.3.

Filamentation-suppressed recombinant Escherichia coli strain harboring the Alcaligenes latus polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis genes and the E. coli ftsZ gene was constructed and cultivated for the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] with high concentration and high content. By the pH-stat fed-batch culture of this recombinant E. coli strain XL1-Blue(pJC5), the final cell concentration and P(3HB) concentration obtained in 44.25h were 172.2g cell dry weight/l and 141.9g P(3HB)/l, respectively, resulting in productivity of 3.21g P(3HB)/l-h. More importantly, the P(3HB) content obtained was 82.4 wt %, which was significantly higher than that obtained with the recombinant E. coli harboring only the PHA biosynthesis genes.

The timing of poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) biosynthesis was controlled by varying the agitation speed of a stirred tank fermentor during the pH-stat fed-batch culture of recombinant Escherichia coli strain GCSC 6576 harboring pSYL107. Using a concentrated whey solution containing ca. 200 g/l lactose as the nutrient feed, the PHB content was only 57% after 35h due to volumetric limitation of the fermentor. However, by limiting the oxygen by maintaining the agitation speed at 300 rpm, the final PHB content increased to 70% after 70h with a cell concentration of 15 g/l. When the agitation speed was increased up to 500 rpm, a cell concentration of 31 g/l with 80% PHB was obtained after 52h. A further increase in the maximum agitation speed increased the cell concentration, PHB concentration, and PHB productivity, however, the PHB content decreased to 56-58%.
