초록

현재 국내에 유통되고 있는 담수관상어의 대부분은 수입에 의존하므로 외래 병원체 및 항생제 내성균의 유입 가능성이 크다. 본 연구에서는 담수에 상재하는 균으로 인수공통 감염이 가능하며 어류에 조건성병원균으로 작용하는 Aeromonas hydrophila를 다양한 수입 담수관상어로부터 분리하여 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 수입 후 1일 이내의 관상어를 수족관으로부터 수집하여 0.5% NaCl을 포함하는 TSA 배지에 간, 신장, 비장을 도말하여 세균을 분리하였다. 세균의 형태, 생화학적 특성 및 starch- ampicillin agar (SA)에서의 clear zone 형성 유무에 근거하여 분리 균의 약 70%인 226 균주가 Aeromonas spp.로 확인되어 이들의 분리 빈도가 매우 높음을 알 수 있었다. 이들 중 9균주를 선택하여 16S rRNA gene의 sequence를 분석한 결과 모두 A. hydrophila로 동정되었으며 API 20E test에서 대부분의 분리 균주는 amygdalin, D-melibiose, D-sucrose, trisodium citrate, L-arabinose 이용에서 표준 균주와 차이를 보였다. 10종의 항균제에 대한 분리 균주의 감수성을 디스크 확산법으로 확인한 결과 amoxycillin, ampicillin에 대해서는 모든 균주가 저항성이었고 florfecicol에 대해서는 모두 감수성이었다. 그러나 7균주는 tetracycline 계통의 항균제와 erythromycin, nalidixic acid 등에 복합내성을 보였다. A. hydrophila로 동정된 9개 분리 균주를 금붕어에 인위 감염을 실시한 결과, 3 균주는 5일 이내에 60~80%의 폐사를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 다약제내성이면서 독력이 있는 Aeromonas가 수입관 상어를 따라 국내로 유입되어 전파될 수 있으므로 수입상에서 소비처로 판매되기 전의 방어적 조치가 필요하다는 것을 시사한다.

The majority of freshwater ornamental fish are imported and distributed domestically, causing high risk of exposure to exotic pathogens and drug resistant bacteria in Korea. Aeromonas hydrophila is known as a common species of fresh water bacteria and opportunistic fish pathogen, as well as a species causing zoonotic infection. In this study, we isolated motile aeromonads from various imported freshwater ornamental fish and studied the characters of the isolates. Imported freshwater ornamental fish were purchased on day 1 after the fish were deposited in the aquarium. Bacteria were isolated from the liver, kidney and spleen of fish using 0.5% NaCl containing tryptic soy agar medium. Bacteria were grouped on the basis of their morphological characteristics. The colonies with clear zone on starch-ampicillin agar (SA agar) were tentatively identified as Aeromonas spp. Two hundred and twenty-six strains, about 70% of total isolates were assumed to be Aeromonas spp. Nine isolates were further identified based on the result of the API 20E test and PCR using primers specific for A. hydrophila 16S rRNA gene. The isolates were identified as A. hydrophila and the API 20E test showed differences in trisodium citrate, D-sucrose, D-melibiose, amygdalin and L-arabinose availability between the nine isolates and standard A. hydrophila. The susceptibilities of the isolated bacteria to 10 antibacterial agents were confirmed by the disk diffusion method. Isolated strains were found to be resistant to amoxicillin and ampicillin and sensitive to florfenicol. However, 7 isolates showed multiple drug resistances to erythromycin, oxytetracycline, nalidixic acid etc. Pathogenicity of the isolates was determined by the artificial challenge test on goldfish (Carassius auratus). Three isolates caused 60 ~ 80% mortality in goldfish within 5 days after the initiation of challenge. These results indicate that multiple drug resistant, highly pathogenic and exotic A. hydrophila can spread to domestic aquarium and the preventive treatment of fish before sale is necessary.
