Studies on the hydrolysis of seaweed using microorganisms and its application: I. screening of microfloras involved in hydrolysis of sea tangle (Laminaria japonica) and sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida)

摘要

The purpose of this study is screening of microfloras involved in hydrolysis of sea tangle (Laminaria japonica) and sea mustard (Undaria pinnatifida). This is a part of studies on the hydrolysis of seaweed using microorganisms. General process is difficult to extract of the useful constituent parts as intercellular mucilage, storage polysaccharide and mineral from seaweed. It was screening to thirty-three microflora samples as destructed of tissue in sea tangle and sea mustard to about two hundredmicroflora samples from mountain, rice field, dry field, sea, seaside and fish market etc. in the neighborhood of Yeosu. Sufficient results of the naked eye observation were obtained at eight microflora samples as a feces of bull, a decayed pine tree, asoil of dry field, the mud of the banks in a rice field, the water of a ditch in a rice field, the weed of the banks in a rice field, the water in a rice field and leaved in the air. And the value of chemical analysis of the sample is much better in comparison with control. Accordingly, the hydrolysis of seaweed using microorganisms in the inside of these termolecular samples can possibility.
