Abstract

In this study, microorganisms were isolated from nosocomial environment and are identified by biochemical analysis as the part of biochemical and technical convergence. Microorganisms were collected at intense care unit of general hospital located in Pyeongtak (2014.11.28. - 2014. 11. 30). Using a VITEK2 equipment of biochemical approaches, eleven microorganisms e.g., Micrococcus luteus (or M. lylae), Granulicatella adiacens (M. luteus or M. lylae), Staphylococcus caprae, Sphingomonas paucimobilis, Kocuria kristinae, G elegans, Aerococcus viridans (or Staphylococcus arlettae), Methylobacterium spp., Dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis (or Kytococcus sedentarius), Kocuria kristinae (or M. luteus, M. lylae), Pseudomonas oryzihabitans were identified. And then identified bacteria plates were applied with a plastic stick, so called with "FarmeTok (medistick/Puristic) to produce ClO2. ClO2-releasing plastic stick showed the very strong inhibition of bacterial growth with about 99.9%. There were no bacterial colonies on the ClO2-incubated plate. Taken together, it is suggested that chlorine dioxide should be very strong inhibitor to microorganisms of nosocomial infections.

본 연구에서는, 생화학 및 기술학 융합 연구의 일환으로, 병원내 환경으로부터 미생물이 추출되고 생화학적 분석으로 통하여 동정되었다. 미생물은 평택 소재 평원 중환자실에서 수집되었다 (2014년 11월 28일부터 2014년 11월 30일). 생화학장비인 VITEK2를 이용하여 11개의 미생물, Micrococcus luteus (or M. lylae), Granulicatella adiacens (M. luteus or M. lylae), Staphylococcus caprae, Sphingomonas paucimobilis, Kocuria kristinae, G elegans, Aerococcus viridans (or Staphylococcus arlettae), Methylobacterium spp., Dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis (or Kytococcus sedentarius), Kocuria kristinae (or M. luteus, M. lylae), Pseudomonas oryzihabitans이 동정되었다. 이후 이산화염소가스를 배출하는 팜이톡이라고 하는 플라스틱 막대와 함께 두고 측정해본 결과, 약 99.9% 이상의 매우 강한 미생물 성장억제가 분석되었다. 팜이톡과 함께 배양된 미생물 플레이트에는 어떠한 세균 집락도 발견되지 않았다. 종합해볼 때, 이산화염소가스를 배출하는 팜이톡은 병원내 감염을 유발하는 미생물에 대한 매우 강한 성장 억제효과를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다.
