Abstract

Tenacibaculum maritimum (formerly Flexibacter maritimus) is the aetiological agent of an ulcerative and necrotic disease commonly called tenacibaculosis in marine fish. Tenacibaculosis is an economically important disease in a great variety species in Jeju Island cultured fish and leading to this pathogen initially affected by skin, mouth, fins, tail causing severe necrotic and ulcerative lesions on the body surface. In the present study, A-7 strain was isolated from Paralichthys olivaceus showing symptoms of tenacibaculosis and identified as T. maritimum by morphological, biochemical and molecular biological analysis. T. maritimum A-7 is experimentally infected through immersion route in Paralichthys olivaceus which the disease outbreaks in land-based fish tanks of Jeju Island. Up to data a number of treatments proposed for the tenacibaculosis outbreaks are based on the immersion administration of drugs in tank. Oxytetracycline is the most widely used disinfectants in fish farms. However, most of fish farms manager and consumers have expressed concern as bioaccumulation in tissue and its environmental. In addition, this antimicrobial compounds is expensive in fish farmers. The overcome of this problem is desired the application of natural plant derived products. To obtain as 70% EtOH extract antimicrobial compounds against tenacibaculosis from 35 species of Jeju Island native plants were screened for antimicrobial activity against T. maritimum. In the present study were identified most of the plant extracts were better antimicrobial activity against T. maritimum.

Tenacibaculum maritimum (formerly Flexibacter maritimus)은 tenacibaculosis라 불리며, 해산어에서 궤양 및 괴사성 증상을 나타내는 질병원인체 이다. Tenacibaculosis는 다양한 양식 어종에서 있어서 경제적 측면에서도 중요한 질병 중 하나이며, 피부, 입, 지느러미, 꼬리 등과 같은 어체 표면에 심각한 궤양과 괴사로 인한 손상을 유발시 킨다. 본 연구에서는 tenacibaculosis의 증상을 나타내는 넙치 병어로부터 A-7 균주를 분리하였고, 형태학적 특성, 생화학적 성상 및 유전자 분석 결과를 바탕으로 T. maritimum으로 동정하였으며, 침지법을 통하여 넙치에 인위적으로 감염되는 것을 확인하였다. Tenacibaculosis를 제어하기 위해 약욕에 의한 항생제 투여가 많이 이루어지며, 그 중 oxytetracycline이 주로 사용되고있다. 그러나, 대부분의 양식어민과 소비자들은항생제 잔류와 환경오염 등의 문제를 우려하고있으며, 비싼 항생제의 사용으로 인하여 양식어의 생산 비용도 높아지고 있다. 이러한 문제점들을 극복하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 천연 자생식물 추출물을 항생제 대체제로 사용하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 총 35 종류의 천연식물의 항균 활성을 검색하였고, 많은 천연식물 추출물이 T. maritimum에 대하여 높은 항균 효과를 나타낸다는 것을 밝혔다.
