Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the antibacterial activity of $SeO_2$ against pathogenic bacteria, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Using the disc diffusion method, $SeO_2$ showed higher antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria than Gram-negative bacteria used in this study. Coccus-form bacteria showed much susceptible to $SeO_2$, compared to bacillus-form bacteria. Compared to antibiotics-susceptible S. aureus, antibiotics used in this study showed lower antibacterial activity against MRSA. As $200-500{\mu}g/disc$ of $SeO_2$ was applied, diameters of clear zone for S. aureus and MRSA were 20-32.7 mm and 13.5-17.9 mm, respectively. For MRSA, minimal inhibitory concentration of $SeO_2$ was $40{\mu}g/ml$. When $SeO_2$ was added in culture broth, cell growth of MRSA was inhibited. These results will be applied to determine antibacterial mechanism of MRSA and other pathogenic microorganisms.

본 연구는 $SeO_2$의 메티실린-내성 S. aureus에 대한 항세균활성을 규명하고자 수행하였다. Disc diffusion method를 이용하여 $SeO_2$의 항세균 활성을 측정한 결과, 그람 양성 세균이 그람 음성 세균과 비교시 우수하였다. 사용한 그람 양성 세균 중 Streptococcus, Staphylococcs 속 세균이 Bacillus 속 간균과 비교시 더 우수하였다. 사용한 모든 MRSA에 항균활성이 나타났다. 항생제의 생육저지환을 측정한 결과, 사용한 모든 항생제에 대해 MRSA의 항균활성이 작게 나타났다. $200-500{\mu}g/disc$ 범위의 $SeO_2$ 적용시 S. aureus 및 S. aureus CCARM (MRSA)에 대한 생육저지환의 직경은 각각 20-32.7 mm 및 13.5-17.9 mm이었다. $SeO_2$의 MRSA에 대한 최소생육억제농도는 $40{\mu}g/ml$이었다. 액체배지에 0.5% 및 1%의 $SeO_2$를 첨가한 결과, MRSA의 생육이 억제 되었다. 본 $SeO_2$의 항균활성 실험 결과는 추후, $SeO_2$의 항균활성 기작의 규명, 병원성 세균 및 항생제-내성 미생물에 적용될 수 있다고 판단된다.
