Language: English Descriptors: Microbial pesticides; Bacterial insecticides; Fungal antagonists; Inoculum; Cell culture; Insect control; Plant disease control Abstract: The purpose of this article is twofold. First is to present some of the economic considerations in the use of microbial cells as biocontrol agents. These include the fermentation and formulation costs as well as the importance of reducing application rates. Second is to discuss the requirements for the formulation of microbes and to introduce Monsanto's new encapsulation technology for microbial pesticides. This encapsulation technology is applicable to both phylloplane and rhizosphere delivery, has shown good field results and preliminary tests indicate the process results in good shelf-life. 54 NAL Call.

Language: English; Russian Descriptors: Cryptococcus laurentii; Hydrolases; Enzyme activity; Amino compounds; Hydrolysis; Lysine; Immobilization; Industrial microbiology; Biotechnology; Equations; Cost benefit analysis Abstract: This paper considers approaches of assessment of the cost-effectiveness of immobilization methods, using two biocatalysts that can be employed for L-lysine production by the chemical-enzymatic method as models. The main cost-effectiveness indices examined are biocatalyst activity, the manner in which it changes during immobilization, catalytic stability, and biocatalyst cost, as well as indices characterizing physical properties. Another cost-effectiveness criterion for immobilization methods is provided by an index that estimates the contribution made by biocatalyst cost to target product cost. 64 NAL Call.

Language: English; Russian Descriptors: Candida; Chaetomium virescens; Pleurotus ostreatus; Biomass production; Fungal protein; Cell culture; Mixtures; Lignocellulosic wastes; Winemaking residues; Stems; Economic analysis; Production costs Abstract: Various methods of grape stem bioconversion were studied with consideration of the criteria of effectiveness (increase of protein per unit substrate, biological value, etc.) and economy. It is shown that the method of growing a mixed culture--yeast (protein) and fungus (cellulolytic)--on ligno-cellulose raw material is the most effective. The biological value of the feed product is highest with the use of a substrate that was preliminarily hydrolyzed with dilute (2%) H2SO4 and freed from solid nonhydrolyzed remains. The methods of solid-phase and deep fermentation of the mixed culture are equivalent with respect to specific cost referred to a unit increase of protein per unit substrate used. The effectiveness of these methods is 2-3 times higher than that of the other methods studied. The calculations were made with consideration of a production capacity of 60,000 tonnes of yeast per year. 65 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: New York; Dairy cows; Bovine mastitis; Bacteriocins; Vaccines; Disease control; Economic impact; Yield losses; Milk production; Costs Abstract: This paper estimates the cost of mastitis for the New York dairy sector. The average cost is found to be $125 per cow from reduced milk production, treatment, and increased culling. At the 1988 cow inventory, this translates to approximately $100 million annually for the entire dairy farm sector. When quality and production losses for the processing sector are added, the cost to the New York industry alone is nearly $150 million annually. Two promising new treatments, a bacteriocin and a vaccine, are evaluated. Both have shown effectiveness in preliminary trials against Staphylococcus aureus. Assuming that further development will allow the treatments to be effective against the major bacterial sources of mastitis infections, the treatments are projected to increase the annual income of the New York dairy industry by $18.8 to $39.7 million. The bacteriocin could replace antibiotic usage, a desirable goal in the opinion of many, and the vaccine promises to immunize cows against mastitis very effectively. 85 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Japan; Biotechnology; Technology transfer; Government research; Trade policy; Market competition Abstract: In the newly emerging field of biotechnology, Japan so far is generally considered to be lagging somewhat behind the US. Through the judicious application of industrial policy to encourage the growth of the industry, however, Japan is rapidly gaining on the US lead. Joint ventures between large Japanese Companies specializing in areas such as chemicals and food and new American biotechnology companies play a key role in the technology-transfer process. This paper analyzes the dynamics and potential of Japanese efforts in biotechnology. Certain structural features of the Japanese economy, such as extensive corporate financial resources, traditional fermentation expertise, and, in particular, government policy to encourage high-technology research and development, serve to increase Japanese competitiveness in the field. 131 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Sesbania exaltata; Colletotrichum truncatum; Mycoherbicides; Biological control; Fungal spores; Culture media; Cell culture; Biological production; Optimization Abstract: A commercial type liquid culture medium for the production of Colletotrichum truncatum NRRL 13737, a pathogen of the weed hemp sesbania, was developed. The concentrations of culture ingredients: 20 g glucose l-1, 2.5 g Tastone yeast extract l-1, 7.5 g Pharmamedia l-1 are optimum for batch cultures. Initial glucose concentration determined total dry weight which was largely composed of mycelia: Pharmamedia concentration influenced the yield and rate of spore production; Tastone 154 yeast extract apparently supplied a nutritional factor which also affected the yield and rate of spore production but to a lesser extent. Batch culture with the described media yielded 6.2 X 10(7) spores per ml in three days. Studies of spore recovery, drying and storage can now be conducted with a commercial type culture medium. 154 NAL Call.

Language: English; Russian Descriptors: Dioscorea deltoidea; Cell culture; Bioreactors; Biomass production; Secondary metabolites; Biosynthesis; Mathematical models; Diosgenin; Economic analysis Abstract: The cost of biosynthesis products was chosen as an arbitrary economic criterion for assessing the optimality of culturing regimes, since minimization of this criterion is of decisive importance for broad industrial introduction of cultured plant cells. Mathematical models have been devised for the functional relationships between cost of biomass as primary biosynthesis product and cost of secondary metabolite on one hand and process parameters and plant cell physiological characteristics in culture on the other for growth under a multicycle regime. The models were used to evaluate culturing regime optimality for Dioscorea deltoidea IFR DM 0.5 cells (which produce diosgenin) in 5-liter and 50-liter fermenters; the results were extrapolated to industrial-scale processes. 155 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Biotechnology; Industry; Market competition; Industrial products; Patents; Government; Policy; Nationalism Abstract: Patents influence economic development and international competition in the biotechnology industry. They have been, and currently are, used in many countries as a form of non-tariff trade barrier, where legislative, judicial or simply policy mechanics dissuade non-residents from entering into business. Patent policies towards biotechnology are even more complicated than in other areas. Different definitions of patentable material and the lack of global standards have resulted in a diversity of national biotechnology patent policies. In order for biotechnology to mature as a global industry, these issues of patent nationalism and patent policy must be addressed by governments and the business and legal communities. 158 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Milk fat; Fatty acids; Chemical composition; Breed differences; Genetic change; Heritability; Transgenics; Economic impact; Literature reviews Abstract: Effecting genetic improvement requires genetic variation, a mechanism of selection, and an economic incentive for the improvement. Limited data suggest that there is within-breed genetic variation in milk fat composition, but accurate estimates are lacking. There is some evidence for modest differences among breeds. Substantial differences exist among Species, indicating that substantial genetic change in fat composition is biologically possible. The economic incentives for genetic change are not clear. Changes in fat composition that would improve the quality of one milk product would often be detrimental to other products. Such changes would best work where subpopulations produced milk for specific end products. Such division of the industry would be difficult to organize and might impede existing improvement programs. Changes in fat composition that increased consumer acceptance of milk products, such as reduced saturated fat concentration, might increase the market for milk products. However, only large changes in composition are likely to affect consumer acceptance; thus, the gradual changes of conventional genetic improvement would produce little or no return to the breeder. Genetic changes that reduced processing costs or increased product value might have low to moderate economic value, inducing slow rates of change. Production of transgenic animals might provide a route for genetic alteration of fat composition in the future. Such improvement would most likely be cost effective in a subdivided production industry in which milk from cows of a particular genotype can be directed to a particular milk product. It is concluded that although alteration of fat composition could be achieved, it is unlikely to be an important component of genetic improvement of dairy cattle. 166 NAL Call.

Soviet biotechnology (3): p. 94-97; 1988. Translated from: Biotekhnologiya (3), 1988, p. 397-401. (TP248.2.B57). Language: English; Russian Descriptors: U.S.S.R.; Leptinotarsa decemlineata; Helicoverpa armigera; Bacillus thuringiensis; Bacterial insecticides; Pest control; Cost benefit analysis Abstract: The economic value of various trends in STP is treated as the basic criterion for the urgency of work in these areas. It is recommended that value to the national economy (from utilization) rather than value within an industry (from manufacturing) be taken into account. The present paper formulates the problems that must be solved in order for this parameter to be used in decision-making by planning organizations. 169 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Biotechnology; Agricultural research; Research policy; Field tests; Regulations; Behavior; Risk; Fixed costs; Property; Liabilities; Research support; Safety Abstract: Federal oversight of agricultural biotechnology field testing is based on public concerns that unknown consequences could arise from such tests, and that firms may not adequately consider the public consequences of their research and development activities. In this paper, four general types of ex ante and ex post approaches to manage public risks from field testing are explored. The analysis shows that the approaches are least effective at facilitating the research process yet controlling public risks when the research firm is small in size and potential damages exceed the value of the firm. 173 NAL Call.

Language: English Descriptors: Australia; Wheat; Protein content; Agricultural research; Genetics; Quality; Nutrient improvement; Exports; Demand; Production costs; Economic impact; Domestic markets; Mathematical models; Case studies Abstract: A model is developed for evaluating the size and distribution of the economic benefits from research that improves the quality of an export commodity. Quality improvement, achieved by research or by agronomic practices, shifts the domestic and/or excess demand curves for an export commodity. Research costs are not modeled, but any shift in the supply curve (due to a change in yield, for example) accompanying the quality improvement is included. The model is used to estimate the gains from research that increases protein content in Australian wheat. It is estimated that Australia has the potential to obtain net benefits up to A$53 million per year from a one percentage point increase in the protein content in wheat. Over 90% of these gains accrue to wheat producers. 180 NAL Call. No.: S494.5.B563B554 Research priorities for rice biotechnology. Herdt, R.W. Wallingford, Oxford, UK : CAB International; 1991.

Language: English Descriptors: Uk; Milk products; Milk quality; Food legislation; European communities; Dairy industry; Quality standards; Food composition; Heat treatment; Genetic engineering Abstract: In 1993, the Single European Market will become reality. For consumers and producers, economic advantages can be expected. However, concern has been expressed as to the possible negative effects on food quality. After a brief review of EC food legislation, outlines activities in the dairy field which may contribute to a high quality standard of dairy products. These are among other things related to drinking milk (protein content, heat load), fermented milk (characteristic micro-organisms), cheese (raw milk cheeses, cheeses with specific characteristics) and butter (butter definition, criteria for first quality butter, control of butterfat purity). In a final chapter discusses the future role of products obtained from genetically manipulated micro-organisms in the dairy sector. 185 NAL Call.
