초록

천연에서 발견되는 휘발성 물질인 isothiocyanate계(ITCs) 물질을 대상으로 Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Erwinia carotovora, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans, Aspergillus oryzae and Penicillium roqueforti 등 9종의 균주에 대한 증식 억제 효과를 측정하였으며 초산과 혼합하여 사용할 때 상승효과를 비교하였다. Allyl isothiocyanate (AIT), benzyl isothiocyanate (BIT) 및 ethyl isothiocyanate (EIT)가 대상 균주 모두에 $100{\sim}200\;{\mu}g/dish$ 수준의 최소증식저해농도(MIC)를 보였고 증식 저해 정도는 곰팡이>효모>Gram 음성 세균>Gram 양성 세균 순 이었다. 초산은 $50{\sim}500\;{\mu}g/dish$로 ITCs 보다 MIC가 낮았다. ITCs와 초산을 혼합하여 사용하는 경우 대부분의 실험 대상 균주에 대하여 증식 저해 상승효과가 인정되었고 AIT의 경우 AIT 단독 또는 초산 단독으로 사용할 때보다 $2{\sim}10$배 이상 효과가 상승하였으며 전체적으로 증식 억제 경향은 ITCs 단독 사용할 때와 같은 경향이었다.

Volatile antimicrobial compounds, isothiocyanates (ITCs), were compared their antimicrobial activity against 9 strains, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Erwinia carotovora, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans, Aspergillus oryzae and Penicillium roqueforti. And synergistic antimicrobial effect of ITCs was examined with acetic acid. Allyl isothiocyanate (AIT), benzyl isothiocyanate (BIT), and ethyl isothiocyanate (EIT) were more effective than other ITCs. MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) of these compounds was $100{\sim}200\;{\mu}g/dish$ against microorganisms tested and their inhibitory actions were more effective in order of fungi>yeast>Gram-negative bacteria>Gram-positive bacteria. MIC of acetic acid was $50{\sim}500\;{\mu}g/dish$ as lower concentration than ITCs. Using a mixture of volatile antimicrobial compounds and acetic acid, the synergistic effect was increased in $2{\sim}10$ times than ITCs used solely.
