Abstract

Most of food poisoning is frequently raised from mass catering. Especially, staphylococci takes the large part of pathogenic agents which are related to the hygienic condition. Among total 98 samples, four staphylococci were isolated from food service environment such as drinking water (A), hands (D), refrigerator and apron (E) of 5 elementary school (A, B, C, D, E) in Gyeongnam Province. These isolated strains are characterized as 1 MRCNS (Methicilline Resistant Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus aureus) and 3 MSCPS (Methicilline Sensitive Coagulase positive Staphylococcus aureus). Also, production of enterotoxin B (sob gene) were examined by PCR which has known as a big problem because of their temperature resistance. Hence, PCR was performed on isolated 4 staphylococci. The all 4 isolated Staphylococcus aureus have 477 bp of seb gene. Antibiotics susceptibility test was completed on PCR detected strains. All strains were fully resistance to ampicillin and penicillin. The drinking water of A place has resistance to oxacilline, therefore this strain turned out to be MRSA (Methicilline Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus).

대부분의 식중독은 단체 급식으로부터 발생하는 경우가 많으며, 특히 위생상태와 연관되어 식중독을 야기 시키는 병인 물질 중 포도상 구균은 많은 부분을 차지하고 있다 따라서 본 연구에서는 서부경남지역의 5개 초등학교 급식시설에서 총 98개의 샘플 중 A 급식소의 식수, D 급식소의 손, E 급식소의 냉장고와 앞치마에서 4개의 포도상 구균을 분리하였다. 분리된 균주들은 1개의 메티실린 저항성 혈장응고 효소 음성 황색포도상구균(Methicilline Resistant Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus aureus； MRCPS)과 3개의 메치실린 민감성 혈장응고효소 양성 황색포도상구균 (Methicilline sensitive Coagulase positive Staphylococcus aureus； MSCPS)으로 구분되었다. 한편 포도상 구균은 내열성 내독소로서, 이 중 가장 문제가 되는 내독소 B(enterotoxin B)를 검색하기 위한 PCR을 실시한 결과, A 장소의 식수, D 장소의 손, E 장소의 냉장고와 앞치마에서 분리된 균주로부터 477bp의 생성물을 갖는 sob gene을 확인할 수 있었다. 이들 분리된 황색포도상구균에 대한 항생제 민감성 실험에서는 ampicillin과 penicillin에 대하여 전체적으로 저항성을 가졌으며, 특히 A 식수에서 분리된 균주는 옥사실린 저항성(oxacilline resistant)균주로 나타나 MRSA(methicilline resistant staphylococcus aureus)균주로 확인되었다.
