Repeated-batch and continuous cultures of Lactococcus sp. 1112-1 were carried out for bacteriocin production using a glucose-casein medium. Repeated-batch culture did not efficiently enhanced the bacteriocin production. Continuous production was possible at the dilution rate of 0.4 $h^{-1}$. Maximum specific production rate ($Q^p$), bacteriocin production and biomass at the dilution rate were 347, 136 IU/g/h, 2, 121 IU/ml and 2.45 g/L, respectively.

Production of extracellular epothilone B, one of the potent anticancer agents, by free and immobilized Sorangium cellulosum was studied using the repeated batch culture process. The concentration of alginate used in immobilization was directly related to the mass transfer rate of nutrients, mechanical stability, and the epothilone B production yield. With the optimized 3% (w/v) calcium alginate carrier, a prolonged repeated batch culture was investigated for the 5 repeated batches for 24 days. The maximum productivity of epothilone B obtained from the alginate-immobilized cells was 5.03 mg/l/day, which is 3 times higher than that of free cells (1.68 mg/l/day).

This study is concerned with development of efficient culture methods for lactic acid fermentation of Lactobacillus sp. RKY2. The cell-recycle repeated batch fermentation using cheese whey and corn steep liquor as raw materials was tried in order to further enhance the productivity of lactic acid. In addition, fermentation efficiencies could be considerably enhanced by cell-recycle continuous culture. Through the cell-recycle repeated batch fermentation, lactic acid productivity was maximized to 6.34 $g/L{\cdot}h,$ which corresponded to 6.2 times higher value than that of the batch fermentation. During the cell-recycle continuous fermentation, the last dry cell weight at the end of fermentation could be increased to 25.3 g/L.

S. cerevisiae ATCC 24858을 이용한 ethanol 생산에서, aeration 효과를 ethanol 수율, specific ethanol production rate, ethanol 생산성 측면에서 분석하여, 반복 유가식 공정전략을 설계하였다. Ethanol 수율과 ethanol 생산성은 공기를 0.33 vvm 넣었을 때, 공기를 넣지 않고 배양한 것에 비하여 더 큰 값을 보였고, 24시간 마다 배지를 교체한 배양이 36시간 마다 배지를 교체한 배양 보다 더 큰 값을 보였다. 총 ethanol 생산량 값이 가장 큰 경우는 0.33 vvm의 공기를 넣고, 배지를 24시간마다 완전히 갈아주었을 때이고, 이때 가장 많은 703.8 g의 ethanol이 생산되었다.

유전자 조작된 Klebsiella pnuemonia를 이용하여 트립토판 생산을 위한 최적 조건 및 플라스미드 안정성에 대한 연구를 수행하였으며, 최적온도는 $37^{\circ}C$, 최적온도에서의 비증식속도는 1.05$h^{-1}$로 측정되었다. 포도당을 기질로 사용하여 첨가회분배양 36시간 후의 트립토판 농도는 0.175g/l 이었으며, 이 결과는 다른 회분배양이나 플라스크 배양에 비해 1.2 및 1.6배 증가한 수치이다. 첨가회분배양에서의 균주안정성은 플라스크에서의 연속 교대 배양에서는 95%가 유지되었으나 첨가 회분배양에서는 50%만이 유지됨을 측정했다.

Lactobacillus brevis, L. fermentum과 L. plantarum의 혼합젖산균을 사용하여 배양조건이 밀가루 용액의 발효에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 온도변화에 따른 pH와 총적정산도의 변화를 살펴본 결과 pH의 감소와 총적정산도의 증가가 가장 크게 나타난 $35^{\circ}C$를 밀가루 발효의 최적온도로 선정하였다. 5L발효조에서 질소가스를 1.0 vvm으로 첨가한 혐기적 조건보다 공기를 첨가한 호기적 조건에서 총적정산도의 증가와 pH의 감소가 더 크게 나타났다. 최적 산소공급 조건을 찾기 위하여 통기량을 1.0 vvm으로 고정하고 교반속도를 달리하여 밀가루 용액의 발효한 결과 총적정산도가 가장 크게 나타난 교반속도 250 rpm에 해당되는 산소 전달속도상수 $60\;hr^{-1}$에서 최적이었다. 선정된 최적 배양조건에서 밀가루 발효액의 생산성을 높이기 위하여 반복비율을 변화시키면서 pH-stat를 이용한 반복 유가식 배양을 수행하였다. 반복비율이 증가할수록 반복 간격시간은 증가하였으나 밀가루 발효의 최대 작동시간은 감소하였다. 최적 반복비율을 결정하기 위하여 단위시간 당 배양부피 당 생산된 밀가루 발효액의 부피와 최대가동시간 동안 배양부피 당 생산된 총 밀가루 발효액의 부피를 살펴본 결과 20%의 반복비율에서 최대값을 나타내었다. 혼합젖산균을 이용한 밀가루용액의 유가식 배양에서 최적조건은 배양온도 $35^{\circ}C$, 통기량 1.0 vvm, 산소전달속도 $60\;hr^{-1}$, 반복비율 20%로 나타났다.

Flocculation of Candida tropicalis HY200 was systemically investigated to elucidate its mechanism, and used for cell cycles in repeated-batch cultivations for the production of xylitol from xylose. Flocculation occurred only after the late exponential phase of growth in the culture media and buffer within the narrow pH range of 3.0-5.0. The flocculation was completely inhibited by treatments of cells with proteases and partially reduced by treatments with carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes and by the presence of mannose and glucose. The addition of calcium ions significantly enhanced the flocculation during cultivation, which was completely abolished by the addition of EDTA. The flocculent yeast HY200 provided repeated-batch cultivations employing cell recycles by flocculation over 6 rounds of cultivation for the production of xylitol from xylose, resulting in a relatively high productivity of averaged 4.6 g xylitol/l h over six batches and maximal 6.3 g xylitol/l h in the final sixth batch. Cell recycle by flocculation was fast and convenient, which could be applicable for the industrial scale of xylitol production.

Herein, we established a repeated-batch process for ethanol production from glycerol by immobilized Pachysolen tannophilus. The aim of this study was to develop a more practical and applicable ethanol production process for biofuel. In particular, using industrial-grade medium ingredients, the microaeration rate was optimized for maximization of the ethanol production, and the relevant metabolic parameters were then analyzed. The microaeration rate of 0.11 vvm, which is far lower than those occurring in a shaking flask culture, was found to be the optimal value for ethanol production from glycerol. In addition, it was found that, among those tested, Celite was a more appropriate carrier for the immobilization of P. tannophilus to induce production of ethanol from glycerol. Finally, through a repeated-batch culture, the ethanol yield (Y_e/g) of 0.126 ± 0.017 g-ethanol/g-glycerol (n = 4) was obtained, and this value was remarkably comparable with a previous report. In the future, it is expected that the results of this study will be applied for the development of a more practical and profitable long-term ethanol production process, thanks to the industrial-grade medium preparation, simple immobilization method, and easy repeated-batch operation.

In this study, Bacillus licheniformis cells were immobilized by entrapment in calcium alginate beads and were used for production of alkaline protease by repeated batch process. In order to increase the stability of the beads, the immobilization procedure was optimized by statistical full factorial method, by which three factors including alginate type, calcium chloride concentration, and agitation speed were studied. Optimization of the enzyme production medium, by the Taguchi method, was also studied. The obtained results showed that optimization of the cell immobilization procedure and medium constituents significantly enhanced the production of alkaline protease. In comparison with the free-cell culture in pre-optimized medium, about 7.3-fold higher productivity was resulted after optimization of the overall procedure. Repeated batch mode of operation, using optimized conditions, resulted in continuous production of the alkaline protease for 13 batches in 19 days.

A marine bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2 KCTC 18012P was immobilized in modified polyvinyl alcohol for the continuous production of rhamnolipids. The stability of rhamnolipids production, the mechanical strength of beads and the scanning electron microscope of immobilized cell were determined in a repeated batch culture. The rhamnolipids production was maintained $80{\sim}90%$ stability of initial production, and the mechanical strength also was stable during the repeated batch culture more than 14 cycles. In the case of SEM studies, the internal distribution pattern of the cell entrapped in modified PVA beads was observed. On the basis of optimal conditions, the continuous culture was investigated in 1.8L air lift bioreactor. The result suggested 0.1g/h rhamnolipids was obtained from 1%(v/v) fish oil continuously in conditions of 1.2L working volume, 0.5vvm and 20ml/h flow rate.
