The effects of solid-state fermentation (SSF) and submerged fermentation (SmF) and the addition of olive oil on the whole-cell lipase production by Rhizopus chinensis CCTCC M201021 were investigated.Compared with SSF, higher biomass, hydrolytic activity and synthetic activity were observed in SmF.By the addition of olive oil, the synthetic activity of whole-cell lipase in both fermentations was enhanced significantly, especially in SmF, while the biomass and the hydrolytic activity were also increased.Hence, olive oil serves as both carbon source and the inducer of lipases in fermentation.It was also found that the synthetic activity of whole-cell lipase was not accordant to the hydrolytic activity during both SmF and SSF, suggesting that isoenzymes with difference in lipase properties may be produced by Rhizopus chinensis.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between transplantation of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells (allo-PBSCs) and low incidence of leukemic relapse. Methods Thirty-seven adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia in first remission ( n =16) and chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase ( n =21) underwent allo-PBSCT from June 1997 to December 1999. A median number of CD34 + cells, CD3 + cells, CD4 + cells and CD8 + cells infused was 7.3 ?10 6/kg, 364?10 6/kg, 210?10 6/kg and 137?10 6/kg, respectively. Busulfan and cyclophosphamide were used as conditioning regimen (BU-CY2). All patients received cyclosporine and methotrexate for GVHD prophylaxis. Results Engraftment of neutrophil and platelet was achieved at a median of day +13(9~28) and day +12(7~19) respectively. Acute GVHD (aGVHD) occurred in 18 of 37 patients ( 48.6% ) with grade II~IV aGVHD ( 24.3% ). Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) developed in 22 (extensive 8, limited 14) out of 32 evaluable patients ( 68.8% ). 28 patients were still alive in complete remission at a median follow-up of 950 days (range 600~ 1 500 days). The main causes of death were aGVHD in two patients, CMV-IP in four patients, cGVHD in two patients, and relapse only in one patient. The probability of disease free survival at 3 years was 75.7% . Conclusion In our series, leukemia recurrence was seen only in one patient ( 2.7% ), suggesting that a high incidence of cGVHD may have an enhanced graft-versus-leukemia effect and hence reduce the incidence of relapse after transplantation.
