Abstract
The human has utilized microbes in a variety of uses including fermented foods, pharmaceutical products, a chemical products and an environmental sanitation. The microbes inhabit all over the world including the extreme environment that the human cannot live innumerably. In the present, we cannot utilize these microbes enough. The major problem in this issue is that a method to isolate an objective useful microbe from the innumerable microbes group is not fully established. In addition, we need to construct the microbial process suitable for these microbes to utilize for commercialization. In general, this process needs a long time until use of maximum ability of each microbe because of the individual characteristics. Therefore we developed three techniques, isolation of microbe, metabolite analysis and breeding of microbe to construct a microbial process more efficiently. Furthermore we advanced these elemental techniques to high-throughput ones.
