Objective: The use of tannin extract and other phytochemicals as dietary additives in ruminants is becoming more popular due to their wide biological actions such as in methane mitigation, bypass of dietary protein, intestinal nematode control, among other uses. Unfortunately, some have strong astringency, low stability and bioavailability, and negatively affecting dry matter intake and digestibility. To circumvent these drawbacks, an effective delivery system may offer a promising approach to administer these extracts to the site where they are required. The objectives of this study were to encapsulate acacia tannin extract (ATE) with native starch and maltodextrin-gum arabic and to test the effect of encapsulation parameters on encapsulation efficiency, yield and morphology of the microparticles obtained as well as the effect on rumen in vitro gas production. Methods: The ATE was encapsulated with the wall materials, and the morphological features of freeze-dried microparticles were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. The in vitro release pattern of microparticles in acetate buffer, simulating the rumen, and its effect on in vitro gas production was evaluated. Results: The morphological features revealed that maltodextrin/gum-arabic microparticles were irregular shaped, glossy and smaller, compared with those encapsulated with native starch, which were bigger, and more homogenous. Maltodextrin-gum arabic could be used up to 30% loading concentration compared with starch, which could not hold the core material beyond 15% loading capacity. Encapsulation efficiency ranged from $27.7%{\pm}6.4%$ to $48.8%{\pm}5.5%$ in starch and $56.1%{\pm}4.9%$ to $64.8%{\pm}2.8%$ in maltodextrin-gum arabic microparticles. Only a slight reduction in methane emission was recorded in encapsulated microparticles when compared with the samples containing only wall materials. Conclusion: Both encapsulated products exhibited the burst release pattern under the pH conditions and methane reduction associated with tannin was marginal. This is attributable to small loading percentages and therefore, other wall materials or encapsulation methods should be investigated.

D. geothermalis의 dgeo_0475 유전자로부터 만들어지는 효소를 정제하여 그 특성을 확인하였다. DGMA는 분자량이 약 68 kDa 크기의 효소로서 ${\beta}$-CD, soluble starch 및 pullulan을 가수분해하는 CD 분해 효소임을 확인하였다. 효소의 최적 온도는 $40^{\circ}C$ 최적 pH 는 6.0이며 대부분의 기질들을 glucose와 maltose로 가수분해 하였고 pullulan 및 soluble starch로부터 미량의 panose를 생성하였다. ${\beta}$-CD를 가장 잘 가수분해하나 기질간 상대적 활성차이는 다른 CD 분해효소에 비하여 크지 않았다.

본 실험의 목적은 starch의 alcohol발효에 있어서 전분의 $\alpha$-1.4 linkage을 분해하여 alcohol발효를 하는 S diastaticus와 전분 중의 $\alpha$-1.4, $\alpha$-1.6 linkage를 모두 분해할 수 있는 C. tropicalis 간의 이속간의 protoplast fusion을 시켰다. 이때 세포 융합의 빈도는 $10^{-5}$-$10^{-6}$이였으며, 이틀 융합체중 amylase 생성능과 유전적으로 안정한 융합체를 분리하였다. fusant의 성질을 조사하기 위하여 탄소원 자화능을 조사한바 parent와 달리 탄소원 자화능이 일부 보완됨을 보였고 또한 fusant는 원 parent보다 세포의 크기가 클 뿐만아니라, DNA함량도 많았다. spore형성능은 S. diastaticus A4는 spore를 형성하나 C. tropicalis는 형성할 수 없는 반면에 fusant는 형성하였고, Cu$^{++}$ 내성과 NaCl 내염성도 조사하였는데 fusant는 parent의 중간 성질을 가졌다. Fusant의 증식율을 조사하기 위하여 생육도를 조사한 결과 Parent보다 유도기가 길었음을 알았다.

Some characteristics of two forms of glucoamylase (glucan 1 A-$\alpha$-glucosidase, EC 3. 2. I. 3) purified from Aspergillus coreanus NR 15-1 were investigated. The enzymes were produced on a solid, uncooked wheat bran medium of A. coreanus NR 15-1 isolated from traditional Korean Nuruk. Two forms of glucoamylase, GA-I and GA-II, were purified to homogenity after 5.8-fold and 9.6-fold purification, respectively, judged by disc- and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular mass of GA-I and GA-II were estimated to be 62 kDa and 90 kDa by Sephadex G-1OO gel filtration, and 64 kDa and 91 kDa by SDS-polyacrylarnide gel electrophoresis, respectively. The optimum temperatures of GA-I and GA-II were 60$^circ$C and 65$^circ$C, respectively, and the optimum pH was 4.0. The activation energy (Ea value) of GA-I and GA-II was 11.66 kcal/mol and 12.09 kcal/mol, respectively, and the apparent Michaelis constants (K_{m}) of GA-I and GA-II for soluble starch were found to be 3.57 mg/ml and 6.25 mg/ml, respectively. Both enzymes were activated by 1 mM Mn^{2+} and Cu^{2+}, but were completely inhibited by 1 mM N­bromosuccinimide. The GA-II was weakly inhibited by 1 mM p-CMB, dithiothreitol, EDTA, and pyridoxal 5-phosphate, but GA-I was not inhibited by those compounds. Both enzymes had significant ability to digest raw wheat starch and raw rice starch, and hydrolysis rates of raw wheat starch by GA-I and GA-II were 7.8- and 7.3-fold higher than with soluble starch, respectively.

This study was carried out to isolate and characterize the mutant strains of Schwanniomyces castellii NRRL Y-2477. Mutants were prepared with the treatment of ethyl methane sulfonate. 2-deoxy-D-glucose resistant mutants were isolated and two mutants were selected based on their high production of amylolytic enzymes and their ability to ferment starch. The mutants selected had higher a-amylase and glucoamylase activities than the wild type strain from several other carbon sources. Especially, it was revealed that mutant strain M-9, when cultured in the presence of glucose as a sole carbon source, shows relatively high activities of a-amylase and glucoamylase compared to those of the wild type strain. In result, this mutant strain can be considered as a constitutive producer of amylolytic enzymes. To compare the ethanol production ability of wild type strain and of mutant strains selected, an alcohol fermentation was carried out using 100 g/l soluble starch. Mutant strain M-9 did not improve the direct alcohol fermentation of starch, despite its excellent amylolytic activities performance. On the other hand, mutant strain M-6 produced 37.9 g/l (4.8%, v/v) ethanol by utilizing about 82% of substrate.

The Oomycete Saprolegnia ferax produces an extracellular $\beta$-amylase, Maximum enzyme yield was attained after 7 days of growth in YNB starch medium (pH 6.5) at 25$\circ$C. The amylase was pu- rified 24-fold by ultrafitration, HPLC DEAE column and HPLC gel filtration. The purfied enzyme was a monomeric glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 44,000 dalton. The pH and temperature optima were 6.5 and 50$\circ$C, respectively. The enzyme was fairly stable up to 50$\circ$C and at acidic pH region (pH 4.0-7.0). The apparent Km and Vmax values of the enzyme against soluble starch were 0.77 mg/ml and 2,174 $\mu$moles/mg protein, respectively. Amino acid analysis indicated that the enzyme was enriched in alanine, glycine, leucine and acidic amino acid. Starch hydrolysis with the enzyme released maltose but not glucose, whereas maltotriose, Schardinger dextrin ($\alpha$-cyclodextrin) and pullulan were not hydrolysed by the enzyme. The enzyme was inhibited by Schardinger dextrin, p-chloromercuribenzoate(PCMB), CU$^{2+}$' and Hg$^{2+}$. Inhibition of the enzyme by PCMB could be reversed by the addition of cysteine and mercaptoethanol.

A Bacillus strain capable of producing an extracellular malto-oligosaccharides forming $\alpha $-amylase was isolated from soil and designated as Bacillus sp. SUH4-2. The enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Toyopearl and Mono-Q HR 5/5 column chromatographies using a FPLC system. The specific activity of the enzyme was increased by 16.1-fold and the yield was 13.5%. The optimum temperature for the activity of $\alpha $-amylase was 60-65$\circ$C and more than 50% of initial activity was retained after the enzyme was incubated at 60$\circ$C for 40 min. The enzyme was stable over a broad pH range of 5.0-8.0 and the optimum pH was 5.0-6.0. The molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be about 63.6 kD and isoelectric point was around 5.8. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Mn$^{2+}$, Ni$^{2+}$, and Cu$^{2+}$ ; slightly by Ca$^{2+}$. The purified enzyme produced starch hydrolyzates containing mainly maltose and maltotriose from soluble starch. The starch hydrolyzates were composed of 11% glucose, 59% maltose, 25% maltotriose and 5% maltotetraose.
