Course description
・Date and time: 20, May 2021 Online Class
・Research on filamentous fungi including Koji-mold, which has been used in the production of Japanese traditional fermented foods and beverages, has made remarkable progress in recent years. In this lecture, it will be explained about growth, enzyme production and safety of Koji-mold and its closely related fungi including historical background based on recent molecular biological knowledge.
・This is a course to acquire a high degree of specialized ability in the field of applied life science by learning the latest knowledge and technology in agriculture.
Expected Learning
・To be able to understand molecular biology about morphogenesis and growth of filamentous fungi and protein production.
・To be able to acquire knowledge about safe and efficient usage of Koji-mold and its related fungi, and to be able to propose new usage ways by yourself.
