Our company conducts high concentration culturing of the aquatic nitrogen cycling "nitrifier bacteria group" and "denitrification bacteria group". It is well known that under aerobic conditions, the "nitrifier bacteria group" carries out oxidation decomposition of ammonia into nitric acid, and under anaerobic conditions, the "denitrification bacteria group" carries out reductive decomposition of nitric acid into nitrogen gas. We also conduct high concentration culturing of salt tolerant microorganisms and are able to meet a wide variety of needs. We sell from small amounts. If you have any trouble with treating nitrogen, please feel free to contact us. |

We study the physiological function of D-amino acid in foods. The main research themes are 1) quantitative analysis of D-amino acid in fermentative food, 2) analysis of the function of D-amino acid metabolizing enzymes in microorganisms isolated from food, 3) production of D-amino acid by the microorganism. We are planning to apply our research to the development of D-amino acid-containing functional foods. |

Organisms adapt themselves to the surrounding environment and modify the environment. The contents of naturally occurring water reflect both the geological composite elements and the demands of the organisms living therein. Constantly modifying each other they have delicately harmonized and coevolved over some billions of years, resulting in their present state. The human activities after the industrial revolution has rapidly changed the global environment. We have targeted our research, among others, on the fluctuation in the carbon circulation caused by large consumption of fossil fuel and organisms' response thereto. Photosynthesis in water and that on land have played vital roles in the process of carbon circulation. The quantity of the carbon fixed in water amounts to approximately half of the global quantity of the carbon dioxide assimilation on earth. Most of the carbon fixed in water depends on single-cell algae as called plant planktons. Our present research targets the contribution of the plant planktons' carbon metabolism capacity and its earth environment regulating function and the influences of the change in the global environment on these functions, especially the influences on the concentration of carbon oxide. |

On earth, there are various living microorganisms inhabiting a diversity of environments. The microorganisms whose favorite environment is at temperatures exceeding 90 degree C are called hyperthermophiles and most of them live in environments relevant to primeval earth, e.g. hot springs and submarine hydrothermal ore deposits. These microorganisms have attracted attention as the closest existing organisms to protobionts. Among the hyperthermophiles, those belonging to Archhaea are classified morphologically into prokaryotic organisms, but they are analogous to eukaryotic organisms from the viewpoint of molecular phylogeny and therefore interesting in searching for the mystery of the birth of eukaryotic cells. Furthermore, the enzymes produced by these hyperthermophiles are thermostable even at temperatures higher than 100 degrees Celsuis and therefore have industrially wide use. While working on molecular breeding of these hyperthermophiles, we have also attempted to develop effective uses for thermostable enzymes. While modifying the enzymes' functions using genetic engineering, we have aimed to work out novel enzymatic reaction fields by applying these thermostable enzymes in hydrophobic systems such as in organic solvents. Furthermore, we are attempting to develop biotechnology using microorganisms, including searching for new useful microorganisms and exploring environmental detoxification with microorganisms.. |

Over recent years the full genome analysis of several antibiotic producer bacteria has revealed that many genes for secondary metabolites other than the products also get coded. Thus, microorganisms are considered to have the potential capacity to produce unknown secondary metabolites. This laboratory is attempting to search, purify and structurally elucidate new bioactive substances from microbial products through creating a new screening method for anti-cancer, anti-malaria, or anti-water mold substances etc that will lead to their application. |
