Bacillus sp. 유래 ${\beta}-mannanase$의 brown copra meal에 대한 기질 특이성을 규명하기 위하여 정제효소 150 ml를 0.5% 기질에 $50^{\circ}C$, 24 hrs 가수분해후 TLC, FACE로 비교 검토한 결과 2종류의 galactosyl mannooligosaccharide로 구성되어 1차 activated carbon column chromatography을 이용해 250 ml/hr 유속으로 tube당 50ml씩 ethanol $0{\sim}30%$ linear gradient로 당을 분리하였다. Activated carbon column chromatography에 의한 당용액 0.2 ml와 5% phenol 0.2 ml를 가하여 혼합 후 $Conc.H_2SO_4$ 1 ml를 가하여 혼합한 후 20분간 방치하여 490 nm로 흡광도를 측정하여 TLC로 pattern을 검토한 후 $Gal^3Man_4$ 및 DP 7의 galactosyl manooligosaccharide의 fraction을 회수하여 2차 activated carbon column chromatography를 이용해 1차와 동일한 조전에서 분리 회수하여 중합도 5는 $Gal^3Man_4(63-mono-{\alpha}-D-galactopyranosyl-{\beta}-mannotetraose)$로 동정되었고, 중합도 7은 현재 동정중에 있다. Bifidobacterium속 균주(B. longum, B. bifidum)에 대한 생육활성을 비교 검토하기 위하여 MRS media에서 탄소원을 dextrose대신에 조제된 $Gal^3Man_4$를 첨가후 측정한 결과 $Gal^3Man_4$이 첨가되지 않은 MRS broth에 비해 생육촉진 활성을 보였다. 특히 B. longum에 대해서는 $Gal^3Man_4$를 dextrose대체 탄소원으로 처리시 10배의 생육활성이 증가하였다.
For the elucidation of substrate specificity to the brown copra meal by Bacillus sp. ${\beta}-mannanase.$, the enzymatic hydrolysate after 24 hr of reaction was heated in a boiling water bath for 10 min, and then centrifuged to remove the insoluble materials from hydrolysates. The major hydrolysates composed of D.P 5 and 7 galactosyl mannooligosaccharides. For the separate of galactosyl mannooligosaccharides, the supernatant solution of 150 ml was put on a first activated carbon column. The column was then washed with 5 l of water to remove mannose and salts. The oligosaccharides in the column were eluted by a liner gradient of $0{\sim}30%$ ethanol, at the flow rate of 250 ml per hour. The sugar composition in each fraction tubes was examined by TLC and FACE analysis. The combined fraction from F3 was concentrated to 30 ml by vacuum evaporator. Then put on a second activated carbon column. The oligosaccharides in the column were eluted by a liner gradient of $0{\sim}30%$ ethanol (total volume: 5 l), at the flow rate of 250 ml per hour. The eluent was collected in 8 ml fraction tubes, and the total sugar concentration was measured by method of phenol-sulfuric acid. The major component of F2 separated by 2nd activated carbon column chromatography were identified $Gal^3Man_4(6^3-mono-{\alpha}-D-galactopyranosyl-{\beta}-mannotetraose)$. To investigate the effects of brown copra meal galactomannooligosaccharides on growth of Bifidobacterium longum, B. bifidum were cultivated individually on the modified-MRS medium containing carbon source such as $Gal^3Man_4$, compared to those of standard MRS medium.
