Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop a LightCycler-based real time PCR (LC-PCR) assay and to evaluate its diagnostic use for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus in raw milk samples. Following amplification of 113 bp of coa gene encoding an coagulase precursor specific for Staphylococcus aureus, melting curve and DNA sequencing analysis was performed to verify the specificity of the PCR products. Amplification of 209 bp gene encoding an altered penicillin-binding protein, PBP2a (mecA), melting curve analysis and DNA sequencing analysis was performed to verify methicillin resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). According to this study, 6 of 647 raw milk samples showed S. aureus positive and 2 of them showed a mecA positive and the detection limit was 10 fg of DNA. And we also isolated Staphylococcus chromogenes a causative agent of exudative epidermitis in pigs and cattle from 3 samples.

본 연구는 Lightcycler (Roche)를 이용한 Real-Time PCR(LC-PCR)기법을 통하여 원유시료에서 신속, 정확하게 황색포도상구균을 검출하는 기법을 개발하고자 하였다. coagulase 전구체를 coding하는 113 bp의 coa 유전자의 증폭, melting curve 분석 및 DNA염기서열을 분석하여 황색포도상구균 특유의 유전자 검출하는 기법을 개발하였다. 또한 분리된 균주중 메치실린에 내성을 나타내는 균주를 검출하고자 penicillin-binding protein, PBP2a (mecA)를 coding 하는 209 bp의 mecA 유전자의 증폭, melting curve 분석 및 DNA염기서열을 분석하여 메치실린내성 황색 포도상구균을 real-time PCR 기법으로 검출하는 기술을 개발하였다. 본 실험에 따르면 647개의 원유시료중 6개의 시료에서 황색포도상구균이 검출되었으며 이중 2개의 시료에서 분리된 황생포도상구균이 메치실린내성 황색포도상구균임을 확인하였다. 또한 DNA 검출한계는 10 fg으로 기존 PCR에 비해 매우 감도가 우수한 것을 확인하였다. 또한 3개의 원유시료에서 돼지나 소의 삼출성 피부염의 원인균인 Staphylococcus chromogenes가 분리되었다.
