Antimicrobial Activity of Chitooligosaccharides

Chitooligosaccharides의 항균성

Chitooligosaccharides were prepared by enzymatic hydrolyzing of crab shell chitosan. Low Molecular Meight chitooligosaccharides(LMW-chitooligosaccharides) , 64.3% of which was composed of trimer, tetramer, and pentamer, was obtained by hydrolyzing chitosan with the chitosanase originated Bacillus pumilus BN -262. High Molecular Meight chitooligosaccharides ( HMW-chitooligosaccharides ) , 49.3% of which was composed of chitooligosaccharides over heptamer, was obtained by hydrolyzing chitosan with the cellulase originated Trichoderma viride. Antimicrobial activity and colony forming inhibitory activity of chitooligosaccharides were tested. MIC of LMW-chitooligosaccharides against Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O157 : H7, Lactobacillus plantarum, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans was 1.5%, 1.5% above 2.0%, 1.5%, 1.5%, below 0.5%, 2.0%, 1.5%, above 2.0%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 1.0% respectively. .

Chitosna을 Bacillus pumilus BN-262 유래의 chitosanase로 처리하여 trimer, tetramer, pentamer가 전체 올리고당 중 64.3%에 달하는 비교적 저분자의 chitooligosaccharides로 구성된 LMW-chitooligosaccha-rides를 얻었으며, chitosan을 Trichoderma viride 유래의 cellulase로 처리하여 중합도7이상의 것이 전체 올리고당 중 49.3%에 달하는 상대적으로 분자량이 큰 chitooligosaccharides로 구성된 HMW-chitooligosac-charides를 얻었다. 제조된 chitooligosaccharides의 항균성과 콜로니 형성 저해 활성을 측정하였다. LMW chitooligosaccharides의 Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Lactobacillus plantarum, Listeria mo-nocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans에 대한 MIC(최소저해농도)는 각각 1.5%, 1.5%, above 2.0%, 1.5%, 1.5%, below 0.5%, 2.0%, 1.5%, above 2.0%. 1.0%, 1.5%, 1.0%였으며, HMW-chitooligosaccharides의 Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Esche-richia coli, Escherichia coli O157 : H7, Lactobacillus plantarum, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enteritidis, Samlmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans에 대한 MIC는 각각 1.0%, 1.0%, 2.0% 이상, 1.0%, 1.0%, 0.25% 이하, 1.0%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 1.0%, 1.0%, 0.5%였다.
