A study was carried out for production of a pigment : bluish purple, using a mutant Streptomyces californicus KS-89-7. The mutant was induced from Streptomyces californicus KS-89 with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoquanidin(MNNG). It was immobilized on an inert substance made of colloidal sillica and 3.5% sodium alginate with 1 to 10 ratio. The diameter of inert bead was 2mm, and number of immobilized mutant spore was approximately $1.0{\times}10^7$/ml. It was packed in a column reactor and fermentation was conducted with a substrate made of soluble starch 1%, glycerol 1.0%, sodium glutamate 0.1%, sodium nitrate 0.05%, L-prolin 0.025% and with some trace elements. The aeration for production of the pigment was 2.5m1/min with semi-continuous fermentation. The pigment production reached at peak on 8 days of fermentation, and the mutant produced the pigment 1.8 times more than its parent strain with the maximum pigment production of $1.72g/\ell$. The pigment production continued for 24 hours of fermentation, and at the end of the fermentation the mutant produced the pigment $1.52g/\ell$.

본 연구는 해양유래의 특이색소미생물을 선발하여 미생물의 특성 및 이차대사산물의 생리활성 탐색을 통해 새로운 생물자원개발을 위해 수행되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 prodigiosin 유사 색소를 생산하는 균주 JE-34는 동중국해 퇴적층으로부터 분리되었으며 Zooshikella sp. JE-34으로 명명하였다. Zooshikella sp. JE-34는 적색색소를 다량 생산하였으며 대표적인 prodigiosin 생산균주인 Serratia marcscens의 색소추출액과 분광학적 특성 및 HPLC 분석을 통해 JE-34가 생산하는 색소가 prodigiosin 유사색소로 판단되었다. JE-34 균주의 배지조성에 따른 생육도 및 pigment 생합성의 변화를 알아보기 위해 탄소원, 질소원, 무기염류를 첨가하며 배양한 결과 탄소원으로는 soluble starch, 질 소원으로는 malt extract, 무기염류로는 $Na_2HPO_4$에서 최적의 pigment를 생산하였다. Zooshikella sp. JE-34는 prodigiosin의 생합성에 있어 대표적인 생산자인 Serratia marcscens와 마찬가지로 우수한 pigment 생합성량을 보여 prodigiosin의 생합성의 생물자원으로서 의의가 있다고 사료된다.

This study was performed to evaluate the hexavalent chromium content in flexography inks and organic pigments used as colorants for the ink. The digestion of sample was carried out under alkaline condition, and the content of soluble hexavalent chromium extracted from samples was determined by UV-visible colorimetric analysis method after alkaline digestion. Duplicate sampling system to obtain two digested samples, was applied in this study. To determine the hexavalent chromium content in the flexography ink and organic pigment colorimeteric analysis was employed. Because the organic pigment is the main ingredient of flexography ink it is important to remove the errors associated with the colorant of the ink in colorimetric determination. The duplicate sampling system allowed us to correct the errors associated with the colorimeteric measurement. The additional filtration was found an essential step to exclude colorimeteric error derived from the various precipitates. The soluble hexavalent chromium content in flexography inks was generally less than 5 ppm. Yellow, violet and some magenta colors showed higher soluble hexavalent chromium contents. The content of hexavalent chromium in organic pigments was greater than flexography inks, and yellow, violet and some magenta pigments contained greater amount of hexavalent chromium, which indicated that the hexavalent chromium in inks derives from the colorants. The soluble hexavalent chromium content in linerboards were below 1 ppm, and no hexavalent chromium was detected in UKP. Results suggested that flexography ink is the main factor to cause hexavalent chromium in linerboard and organic pigments.

A bacterium capable of producing melanin pigment in the presence of L-tyrosine was isolated from a crop field soil sample and identified as Klebsiella sp. GSK based on morphological, biochemical, and 16S rDNA sequencing. The polymerization of this pigment occurs outside the cell wall, which has a granular structure as melanin ghosts. Chemical characterization of the pigment particles showed then to be acid resistant, alkali soluble, and insoluble in most of the organic solvents and water. The pigment got bleached when subjected to the action of oxidants as well as reductants. This pigment was precipitated with $FeCl_3$, ammoniacal silver nitrate, and potassium ferricynide. The pigment showed high absorbance in the UV region and decreased absorbance when shifted towards the visible region. The melanin pigment was further charecterized by FT-IR and EPR spectroscopies. A key enzyme, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid hydroxylase, that catalyzes the formation of melanin pigment by hydroxylation of L-tyrosine was detected in this bacterium. Inhibition studies with specific inhibitors, kojic acid and KCN, proved that melanin is synthesized by the DOPA-melanin pathway.

유기 용매에 추출되는 유리형의 홍국 색소를 보다 많이 얻기 위하여 Monascus anka의 균주를 자연 및 자외선 변이균주에서 선발하고 배양 조건을 탐색하였다. 균주 N3를 Lin's medium에서 진탕 배양, Nishikawa's medium에서 정치 배양 및 진탕 배양하여 균체성장과 색소생성에 소요되는 시간, 유기용매에 추출되는 색소의 양을 비교하여 보았다. Lin's medium에서의 액침 배양에서는 수용성 색소가 우세하게 생성되는 반면 Nishikawa's medium에서의 정치 배양에서는 보다 많은 유기용매 가용성의 색소를 얻을 수 있었다. 한편 탄소원으로는 자당외에 에탄올이 가장 효과적이었다. Sterol 합성저해제를 처리하였을 때는 상당한 색소 형성의 증가를 볼 수 있었다. 이차원 TLC로써 아직 보고된 바 없는 색소들이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 이 균주의 색소중 가장 다량으로 존재하는 황색소의 하나를 분리하였고 분광학적 방법으로 ankaflavin으로 동정하였다.

The production of water-soluble pigments by fungal strains indigenous to South Korea was investigated to find those that are highly productive in submerged culture. Among 113 candidates, 34 strains that colored the inoculated potato dextrose agar medium were selected. They were cultured in potato dextrose broth and extracted with ethanol. The productivity, functionality (radical-scavenging activities), and color information (CIELAB values) of the pigment extracts were measured. Five species produced intense yellowish pigments, and two produced intense reddish pigments that ranked the highest in terms of absorbance units produced per day. The pigment extracts of Penicillium miczynskii, Sanghuangporus baumii, Trichoderma sp. 1, and Trichoderma afroharzianum exhibited high radical-scavenging activity. However, the S. baumii extract showed moderate toxicity in the acute toxicity test, which limits the industrial application of this pigment. In conclusion, P. miczynskii KUC1721, Trichoderma sp. 1 KUC1716, and T. afroharzianum KUC21213 were the best fungal candidates to be industrial producers of safe, functional water-soluble pigments.

The chemical processes involved in the formation of green pigment in crushed garlic cloves were investigated based on the principle of pink pigmentation in macerated onions. Intact greening and non-greening garlic cloves were either left untreated or heated at $90^{\circ}C$ for 3 min to inactivate enzyme activities. First, a colorless ether soluble compound referred to as color developer reacted with glycine (among all free amino acids) in garlic to form a second compound insoluble in ether. The latter compound then reacted with formaldehyde to yield the green colored pigment. Alliinase activity was necessary for the production of color developer and for the development of green pigment. In greening garlic that had been heat treated, green pigmentation did not proceed due to the heat-inactivation of alliinase, but the addition of alliinase solution into the garlic homogenates restored the pigmentation. However, this phenomenon was not observed in non-greening garlic with or without heat treatment. Finally, the mechanism of green pigment formation in crushed garlicis similar to that of pink pigment formation in macerated onions.

Cordyceps scarabaeicola KEFC-C252 균사체의 배양으로 생산되는 천연색소의 생산조건 및 색소의 정제방법을 조사하였으며, 분리된 색소의 항돌연변이 효과를 조사하였다. 색소의 생산에 적합한 배지는 1.5% sucrose, 2.5% yeast extract, 초기 pH5.5였다. Cordyceps scarabaeicola KEFC-C252를 $26^{\circ}C$에서 108시간 배양한 후에 색소생산이 최대에 달하였으며, 최적조건에서 Cordyceps scarabaeicola KEFC-C252는 1.2 g/liter의 색소를 생산하였다. 색소는 ethylacetate 추출, 산침전 및 결정화과정을 거치면서 정제하여 황색의 육각기둥 모양의 결정을 얻었다. 분리된 색소는 용액의 pH 변화에 따라 색상이 변하는 특성을 나타내었는데 알칼리성 용액에서 청색, 산성 용액에서 붉은색을 나타내었다. 분리된 색소는 4-NQO로 유도된 돌연변이를 억제하는 항돌연변이원성 물질이었다. 또 분리된 색소는 Salmonella typhimurium TA98과 TA100에서 자발적 돌연변이를 감소시켰다.
