We evaluated the microbiological quality of a facility in which freshly cut onions were prepared. The total plate counts on walls, equipment, and raw materials were ND (not detected) to $10^1$ CFU/100 $cm^2$, $10^0{\sim}10^3$ CFU/100 $cm^2$, and $10^3{\sim}10^4$ CFU/g, respectively. No coliforms were detected on walls however, coliforms were detected at concentrations of ND to $10^3$ CFU/100 $cm^2$ and $10^3{\sim}10^4$ CFU/g on equipment and raw materials, respectively. The total plate counts for falling and floating bacteria in the processing plant were ND to $10^0$CFU/plate and $10^1{\sim}10^2$ $CFU/m^3$, respectively. Pathogenic microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes were not detected on walls, equipment, or raw materials. Overall, the results of the study indicate that hygiene control at the fresh-cut processing plant should be improved.

장조림 원료 쇠고기 우둔살과 가열 처리한 쇠고기 우둔살에서 중온성 세균, 저온성 세균, 혐기성 세균, 포자형성균 및 대장균군 등과 같은 미생물 균수의 변화를 측정하였고, B. cereus, C. botulinum, C. perfringens, L. monocytogenes 등과 같은 9종류의 주요 병원성 세균의 분리를 시도하였다. 원료육에서 중온균, 저온균, 혐기성 균 등은 대부분 높은 분포를 보였으나 가열 처리육에서는 급격히 감소하였으며, 대장균군, E. coli, Enterpbacteriacea, C. perfringens, S. aureus 등은 원료육과 가열 처리한 쇠고기 우둔살에서 모두 검출되지 않았다. 식중독균인 B. cereus, C. perfringens 및 L. monocytogenes등 3균주가 원료육에서 분리된 반면, C. botulinum, E. coli 0157:H7, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., S. aureus 및 Y. enterocolitica는 분리되지 않았다.

This study was performed to evaluate and compare the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of various berry juices (cherry, grape, blueberry, aronia, cranberry, and raspberry). The cherry, aronia, and cranberry juices included higher levels of total polyphenol than the other berry juices. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of various berry juices increased according to the juices concentration. The scavenging activity of DPPH radicals by the aronia, cranberry, and raspberry juices was higher than those of other samples and was in the following order: aronia > cranberry > raspberry. The FRAP values of 100% aronia juice was the highest among the samples, which was more than five times higher than grape juice at a concentration of 25%. The cranberry and raspberry juices exhibited a strong inhibitory effect against important food-borne bacteria, and in general, the berry juices inhibited the growth of Gram-negative bacteria more than that of Gram-positive bacteria. The cranberry and raspberry juices exhibited high antimicrobial activities against important food-borne bacteria at a concentration of 100% and 75%, however, they did not affect food-borne bacteria at a concentration below 10%. These results suggest that aronia, cranberry, and raspberry may be used effectively as natural additives and as functional foods due to their high antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.

물(water, TW), 에탄올(ethanol, TE) 및 핵산(n-hexane, TH)을 이용하여 탱자씨 추출물(trifoliate orange seed extracts, TSEs)을 각각 제조한 후 그람양성 식중독균 6종(Bacillus cereus KCCM 11341, Bacillus subtilis KCTC 1022, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 12692, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 19111, Streptococcus mutans KCTC 3065 및 Yersinia enterocolitica KCCM 41657)에 대한 항균활성과 Lactobacillus acidophilus IFO 3025에 대한 프레바이오틱 효과(prebiotic effect)를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 탱자씨 핵산추출물(TH)은 S. aureus ATCC 19111에 대해 배양시간이 증가함에 따라 대조군에 비해 강한 증식저해활성을 보였으며, 탱자씨 에탄올 추출물(TE)은 약간의 증식저해활성을 보였다. 특히, 배양 81시간 후 대조군은 90.31%의 증식활성을 보인 것에 반해 탱자씨 핵산추출물과 에탄올추출물은 64.95%와 75.50%의 증식활성을 각각 보였다. 탱자씨 추출물의 Lb. acidophilus IFO 3025에 대한 프레바이오틱 효과는 대조군에 비해 증식활성을 보이지는 않았으나, 적어도 생육저해효과를 보이지는 않았다. 따라서 탱자씨의 핵산 및 에탄올 추출물은 S. aureus ATCC 19111에 대한 항균활성물질로서의 가능성을 제시하였다.

Antibacterial activities of garlic and heat-treated garlic juices on food-poisoning and lactic acid bacterial were examined. Aqueous extract of garlic juice showed bacteriocidal effect against both types of bacteria. Food-poisoning and lactic acid bacterial counts decreased at over 0.5 and 1.5% (w/v) garlic juice. Heat-treated garlic juice, which showed lower antibacterial effect than garlic juice against food-poisoning bacteria, had no significant antibacterial effect against Bifidobacterium, but instead increased Bifidobacterium count.

The sensitivity of various pathogenic bacteria (Aeromonas hydrophila, Estherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus 196E, Salmonella typhimurium and Vibrio parahaemolyticus) to the spices, allspice, clove, oregano, and thyme, was tested. Tryptic soy broth (TSB) containing 0∼2% (w/v) of spices was inoculated with 10sup 5/∼10$\^$6/ cells/$m\ell$ of each bacterium and incubated at 35$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr. The growth of pathogenic bacteria was inhibited with increasing concentrations of spices in the culture broth. At 2％ spice concentration, Gram positive bacteria were more sensitive than Gram negative bacteria with the exception of V. parahaemolyticus. Clove had the highest antibacterial activity, followed by allspice and oregano. At the concentration of 0.3%, clove inhibited the growth of all strains tested. Kanagawa-positive strain of V. parahaemolyticus displayed the highest sensitivity to clove and allspice. Thyme was the least effective for growth inhibition, while 1％ clove killed all pathogens tested.

In this study, microbial investigation is accomplished for 554 Jeot-kal samples(102 of Jeot-kal, 448 of Seasoned Jeot-kal and 4 of Sik-khe, respectively) that corresponds with Coliform-bacteria, Escherichia coli, Aerobic live bacteria as hygienic indicator microorganisms, and Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus as Food-borne pathogenic microorganisms, Based on the methods in Korea Food Code, reliable data are obtained as follows; in 31.9% rate of the samples, Coliform bacteria are verified in the extent of $0{\sim}20,000$ CFU/g as 2.3 logCFU/g. Especially, Seasoned Jeot-kal(37.7%,2.3 logCFU/g) are detected to 6 and 2 folds higher than those of Jeot-kal, 5.9% and 1.4 logCFU/g. Likewise, Escherichia coli is detected from 9 samples only in Seasoned Jeot-kal, that includes seasoned squid, seasoned octopus, seasoned roe of pollack, seasoned large-eyed herring and seasoned hairtail. Aerobic live bacteria are also detected in the range of $0{\sim}8.9{\times}10^8CFU/g$. Against salinity, E. coli are detected in samples only less than 10% salinity. Concomitantly, aerobic live bacteria count is decreased to $5.5{\sim}3.6$ log CFU/g upon the salinity is increased up to 25%. However, S. aureus and V. parahaemolyticus are not detected in 554 samples, presumptively referring Jeot-kal products are somehow free from such food-borne pathogens. As the results above, we deliberately consider that the sanitary control in Jeot-kal, which be necessarily fermented- as well as non-microbially inactivated should be ensured in near future and also suggest an effectual microbial standard corresponding to the Negativity in E. coli for Jeot-kal products.
