본 연구의 목적은 회전생물반응기에 고정화한 P. chrysosporium IFO 31249를 이용하여 LiP 생산의 최적 조건을 조사하는 것이다. 회전생물반응기에서 batch culture시 최대 LiP 활성도는 300 U/L이었다. LiP 생산의 최적 조건은 드림의 회전 속도는 1 rpm, 담체 충진율은 20%이었다. MnP 생산을 위한 $MnSO_4$$\cdot$$H_2O$ 의 최적 농도는 50 ppm이었다. 그리고 산소의 충분한 공급은 LiP 생산의 가장 중요한 인자이었다. 또한 LiP 및 MnP의 생산에 있어 repeated-batch culture가 3번이나 가능하였다.

The performance of immobilized fungal cells on celite beads for the production of gibberrelic acid was investigated in flasks and 7-L stirred-tank reactor. Repeated incubations of immobilized fungal cells increased cell concentrations and volumetric productivity. The maximum volumetric productivity obtained in the immobilized-cell culture was 3-fold greater than that in suspended-cell culture. The concentration of cotton seed flour (CSF), among the various nutrients supplied, most significantly influenced productivity and operational stability. Notably, insoluble components in CSF were found to be essential for production. CSF at 6 g/L with 60 g/L glucose was found to be optimal for gibberellic acid production and stable operation by preventing excessive cell growth.

To develop a practical and cost-effective medium for bioethanol production from the hydrolysate of seaweed Sargassum sagamianum, we investigated the feasibility and performance of bioethanol production in CSL (corn-steep liquor)-containing medium, where yeast Pichia stipitis was used and the repeated batch was carried out in a surface-aerated fermentor. The optimal medium replacement time during the repeated operation was determined to be 36 h, and the surface aeration rates were 30 and 100 ml/min. Under these conditions, the repeated-batch operation was successfully carried out for 6 runs (216 h), in which the maximum bioethanol concentrations reached about 11-12 g/l at each batch operation. These results demonstrated that bioethanol production could be carried out repeatedly and steadily for 216 h. In these experiments, the total cumulative bioethanol production was 57.9 g and 58.0 g when the surface aeration rates were 30 ml/min and 100 ml/min, respectively. In addition, the bioethanol yields were 0.43 (about 84% of theoretical value) and 0.44 (about 86% of theoretical value) when the surface aeration rates were 30 ml/min and 100 ml/min, respectively. CSL was successfully used as a medium ingredient for the bioethanol production from the hydrolysate of seaweed Sargassum sagamianum, indicating that this medium may be practical and cost-effective for bioethanol production.

We investigated a novel process for production of ethanol from glycerol using the yeast Pachysolen tannophilus. After optimization of the fermentation medium, repeated-batch flask culture was performed over a period of 378 hr using yeast cells immobilized on Celite. Our results indicated that the use of Celite for immobilization of P. tannophilus was a practical approach for ethanol production from glycerol, and should be suitable for industrial ethanol production.

This study describes an alternative mixed culture fermentation technology to anaerobically convert lignocellulosic biomass into butyric acid, a valuable product with wide application, without supplementary cellulolytic enzymes. Rice straw was soaked in 1% NaOH solution to increase digestibility. Among the tested pretreatment conditions, soaking rice straw at $50^{\circ}C$ for 72 h removed ~66% of the lignin, but retained ~84% of the cellulose and ~71% of the hemicellulose. By using an undefined cellulose-degrading butyrate-producing microbial community as butyric acid producer in batch fermentation, about 6 g/l of butyric acid was produced from the pretreated rice straw, which accounted for ~76% of the total volatile fatty acids. In the repeated-batch operation, the butyric acid production declined batch by batch, which was most possibly caused by the shift of microbial community structure monitored by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. In this study, batch operation was observed to be more suitable for butyric acid production.

돼지감자 분말을 원료로 alginate에 고정화된 Kluyveromyces marxianus FO43의 에탄올 생산성을 향상시키기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 15% 돼지감자 배지에서 발효시킨 고정화 효모에 의한 에탄올 농도와 이론치에 대한 에탄올 수율은 4일 후에 각각 3.38%(w/v), 54.20%로 이것은 고정화하지 않은 효모의 3.76%(w/v), 71.13% 보다 낮았다. Cellulase의 첨가는 $15{\sim}20%$ 돼지감자 배지의 점조성을 크게 낮추어 고정화 효모의 에탄올 생산성을 증가시켰다. 그리하여 20% 배지에서도 효소를 처리하여 고정화 효모를 4일 발효 시키면 에탄올 농도를 5.57%(w/v), 이론치에 대한 에탄올 수율을 68.86%까지 얻을 수 있었다. Repeated batch culture를 실시한 결과 bead의 활성이 22일 동안 저하되지 않고 유지되었다.

본 연구에서는 고정화 방선균을 이용한 이차대사산물생산 공정 개발에 있어서 고려해야 할 중요한 사항인, 고정화세포의 반복사용 가능성을 조사하였다. 또한 축축한 담체에 균사체 형태의 생산균주의 고정화가능성에 대하여 알아보았다. 셀라이트 담체에 고정화된 고생산성 Streptomyces lincolnensis 돌연변이주를 이용한 반복회분식 배양에서, 회분수가 증가함에 따라 고정화세포의 린코마이신 생산성이 증가하였고 9번째 회분에서는 1007 $({\pm}256)$ mg/L의 린코마이신이 얻어졌다. 10번의 반복회분동안 고정화세포에 의해 얻어진 린코마이신 총양을 기준으로 계산된 고정화세포 배양의 생산성은 현탁회분식 배양에 비해 1.4배 높았다. 축축한 담체와 배지가 포함된 플라스크에 균사체 형태의 생산균주를 접종하고 배양 후 생성된 고정화세포 농도와 린코마이신 양은 건조한 담체에 포자상태의 생산균주를 고정화한 후 배양하여 얻어진 것에 비하여 다소 높음이 관찰되었다. 이는 균사체 형태의 생산균주가 축축한 담체에 쉽게 고정화되는 것을 의미한다. 실제 생산규모를 고려할 때, 본 연구팀에서 개발한 방선균 고정화방법은 담체 멸균 및 세포고정화 단계에서 추가적인 설비가 필요 없으며, 이는 고정화단계에서 숙련된 기술과 추가의 설비를 요하는 다른 방법들에 비하여 실용적이며 경쟁력 있는 생물 공정이라고 사료된다.

응집성 효모인 S. cerevisiae ATCC 96581를 이용한 최적의 에탄올 생산 공정 전략에 대하여 연구하였다. 효모의 특성을 고려하여, 효모 응집공정이 있는 반복 유가식 공정을 설계하였고, 이때 비멸균 포도당 분말을 매 12시간 마다 첨가하였고, 새로운 feeding medium을 24시간 혹은 36시간마다 세포 응집 후 교체 하였다. 이때 효모 응집이 없는 반복 유가식 공정과 비교 검토하였다. 최종적으로 24시간마다 세포를 응집시키고 상층배지를 제거하고 새로운 배지를 넣으면서 반복 유가식 에탄올 생산을 하는 것이 최적의 조건임을 알 수 있었고, 이때 120시간 동안 825 g의 에탄올을 생산 할 수 있었다.

The dissolved oxygen level of any cell culture environment has a critical effect on cellular metabolism. Specifically, hypoxia condition decreases cell viability and recombinant protein productivity. In this work, to develop CHO cells producing recombinant protein with high productivity, mammalian expression vectors containing a human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) gene with hypoxia response element (HRE) were constructed and stably transfected into CHO cells. CHO/2HRE-t-PA cells produced 2-folds higher recombinant t-PA production than CHO/t-PA cells in a $Ba^{2+}-alginate$ immobilized culture, and 16.8-folds in a repeated batch culture. In a non-aerated batch culture of suspension-adapted cells, t-PA productivity of CHO/2HRE/t-PA cells was 4.2-folds higher than that of CHO/t-PA cells. Our results indicate that HRE is a useful tool for the enhancement of protein productivity in mammalian cell cultures.

Culture conditions for biological hydrogen production were investigated in wastewater of Takju manufacturing factory. Rhodobacter spaeroides KCTC1425, photosynthesis bacteria, and Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1, anaerobic bacteria were used. The hydrogen production were $195.3m{\ell}{\cdot}H_2/{\ell}$ broth for Rhodobacter spaeroides KCTC1425 and $271.8m{\ell}{\cdot}H_2/{\ell}$ broth for Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1 during 36 h. The hydrogen production increased with light intensity, and were highest over 12000Lux. In mixed culture of Rhodobacter spaeroides KCTC1425 and Enterobacter cloacae Y J-1, the optimum mixing ratio of hydrogen production was 20 and 80. Adding volume of yeast extract for maximum hydrogen production was 15 $g/{\ell}$, but there was no effect over that. $Na_2MoO_4$ was most effective among the inorganic salts, and the optimum volume was 0.4 $g/{\ell}$. In semi-continuous culture, total hydrogen production was $13086m{\ell}{\cdot}H_2/{\ell}$ broth for 144 h with operating period of 24 h.
