Achromobacter sp. YJ-66에 의한 생물응집제의 생산 특성

Among microorganisms isolated from soil, YJ-66 strain was the best producer of flocculant and was examined for flocculating ability in the active carbon and CaCl2. YJ-66 strain was the best producer of flocculant and was examined for flocculating ability in the active carbon and CaCl2. YJ-66 strain was identified to be a species belonging to the genus Achromobacter. The optimum culture condition for production of bioflocculant with the isolated strain was for 72hrs at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and pH7.5. The favorable carbon, nitrogen sources and inorganic salts for production of the flocculant were sucrose, peptone, MgSO4 and KH2PO4, whose optimal concentrations were 2%. 0.067%, 0.1% and 0.1%, respectively. Addition of the carbon and inorganic salts significantly increased the production of flocculant. Compositions of optimized culture medium for bioflocculant production by Achromobacter sp. YJ-66 were 2% sucrose, 0.067% peptone, 0.1% MgSO4 and 0.1% KH2PO4 in initial pH 7.5 during at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 72hrs.
