Abstract

본 연구는 인간의 건강과 식품의 오염을 예방하기 위한 유용한 자료를 얻기 위하여 육류(소고기, 닭고기, 돼지고기)로부터 분리된 staphylococci를 가지고 한국에서 광범위하게 사용되는 6가지 항생제와 daptomycin, linezolid, quinupristin/dalfopristin and tigecycline과 같은 4가지의 신항생제에 대한 항생제 감수성 시험을 수행하였다. 이에 더하여 육류의 세균 오염실태를 조사하기 위하여 총 세균수와 대장균수를 측정하였다. 그 결과 147개의 육류 샘플 중 48%의 샘플에서 일반세균수의 기준에 부적합한 결과가 나타났으며, 대장균수에 대해서는 31%의 샘플에서 기준에 부적합한 결과가 나타났다. 또한 육류의 91%에서 stapylococci가 검출되었으며 이들 staphylococci는 Coagulase Negative Staphylococci (CNS)와 S. aureus로 동정되었다. 분리된 staphylococci의 5.4%가 methicillin (oxacillin)에 내성을 나타내었고, 특히 mupirocin ($MIC_{90},\;>\;12\;{\mu}g/mL$) gentamicin ($MIC_{90},\;64\;{\mu}g/mL$)에 높은 내성을 나타내었다. 그러나 신항생제에 대해서는 methicillin 내성 staphylococci를 포함한 모든 staphylococci 분리균주가 높은 감수성을 나타내었다. 결론적으로 본 연구의 결과들은 육류가 소비자들의 건강에 중요한 위험요소로 작용할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.
