동절기 급격한 온도 저하로 인한 적용한계를 극복하기 위하여 composting 기술을 현장에 적용하여 적용 가능성을 검토하고 온도 변화에 따른 분해 특성을 검토하였다. 기초 실험을 통해 영양원과 유류분해 미생물의 첨가에 따른 분해 효율을 점검한 결과 초기 유효 미생물 (유류분해 미생물)의 농도가 낮고 영양원(N, P source)의 불균형으로 인해 영양원의 첨가와 유류분해 미생물을 동시에 투입하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 나타났으며, 동절기 낮은 온도를 극복하기 위해 퇴비를 투입한 Co-composting 기술은 주입된 퇴비의 영향으로 pile 내부의 온도가 30-40일 동안 중온상태를 유지하였으며, 제거효율은 91%로 나타났다. 따라서 유류 오염토양을 복원함에 있어서 동절기에도 별도의 시설투자 없이 효율적으로 유류를 분해시킬 수 있는 CO-Composting 기술의 적응 가능성이 확인되었으며, 난분해성 물질의 생물학적 분해에 있어서도 다양하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Effects of gamma irradiation on hygienic quality, extraction yields and physiological effectiveness in twenty-one kinds of Korean medicinal plants were investigated. Gamma irradiation at $5{\sim}10\;kGy$ eliminated the microorganisms contaminated in Korean medicinal plants. The total extraction yield in fifteen kinds of Korean medicinal plants increased by $5{\sim}25%$ at 10 kGy gamma irradiation. The physiological effectiveness such as antioxidation, anticomplement functions, nitrite scavenging and electron donating abilities of medicinal plants exposed to 10 kGy gamma irradiation were not different from that of the nonirradiated control.

To evaluate functional biomaterials of 5 invasive alien plants, total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory activity, and antibacterial effect were measured. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of the extracts were in the order of Rumex acetosella L. > Hypochaeris radicata L. ≥ Lactuca scariola L. > Humulus japonicus Siebold & Zucc. ≥ Solanum viarum Dunal. The DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of the extract were the highest in R. acetosella and correlated well with the total polyphenol contents. In RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) production inhibitory effect of the extracts (100 ㎍ SE/mL) were 20~60% and 10~70%, respectively, showing the highest inhibitory effect in R. acetocella. The extracts of R. acetosella, H. japonicus and S. viarum showed antibacterial activity against food poisoning-causing microorganisms such as Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus. Furthermore, the H. japonicus extract was found to have effective antibacterial activity against oral microorganisms such as Enterococcus faecalis, Lacticaseibacillus casei, Rothia dentocariosa, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Streptococcus mutans, and its major active ingredients were predicted to be pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid and clionasterol. These results suggest that alien plants have potential as biomaterials with antioxidant, anti-inflammation and antibacterial effects.

원유로 오염된 모래지역의 생물정화기술 적용을 위하여 인위적으로 오염시킨 해사를 이용한 타당성 연구를 수행함으로써, 오염 환경에 최적 적용방법을 검토하였다. 무기 영양염류, 인공계면활성제, 유류분해미생물의 적용성을 검토한 결과, 영양염류의 첨가가 효과적이며 외부로부터 미생물을 첨가할 경우 토착미생물보다 많은 양을 적용하는 것이 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 계면활성제는 CMC와 동일 농도로 첨가할 때 높은 효과를 얻을 수 있었다 원유성분의 무기화에 의해 발생되는 이산화탄소량 측정이 타당성 평가의 유효한 도구임을 알 수 있었으며 미생물의 활성과 원유성분 변화로 이를 검증할 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of microbial inoculation on sewage sludge composting. The number and species of microorganisms in sewage sludge sampled on February were higher than those sampled on August. The composting of sewage sludge is inhibited by the polyacrylamide cation, which was used as a coagulant and known to repress the growth of microorganisms. The growth of all microorganisms was inhibited by the addition of the polyacrylamide cation at a concentration of more than 0.8%. The species and viable counts of microorganisms were observed to increase during composting sewage sludge by inoculation of the effective microorganisms and addition of the pine tree sawdust as a bulking agent, compared with those without inoculation. A variety of organisms in compost(sewage sludge plus sawdust) were observed after composting for 30 days, such as Fragilaria sp., Proales sp., Vorticella sp., Schizothrix sp., Anabaena sp., Zoothaminium sp., Epstylis sp., Arcella sp., Balantidium sp., Actinophrys sp., Synedra sp., Euglypha sp., Ulothrix sp., Anacystis sp., and Clostium sp.

In order to examine the seasonal variation of organic and inorganic nitrogen compounds, nitrogen compounds in compost were determined at various composting periods. Total nitrogen, organic nitrogen and biodegradable nitrogen contents in compost were almost not changed, while nonbiodegradable nitrogen contents were increased a little with the lapse of composting time. But effective contents of total nitrogen, organic nitrogen and biodegradable nitrogen were decreased with the progress of composting, while effective contents of nonbiodegradable nitrogen were not changed during composting. Ammonium nitrogen contents in compost were highest at the start of composting, and then the contents were decreased with the lapse of composting time. But after turning the contents were increased again, and thereafter the contents were decreased with the progress of composting. Nitrate contents showed a tendency adverse to ammonium nitrogen contents. Organic nitrogens in organic matter in compost were increased slowly within 9 weeks after composting, and thereafter the contents were increased rapidly to 21 weeks after composting. Total nitrogen contents determined by $F{\"{o}}rster$ Method were higher than those determined by Kjeldahl Method. Total nitrogen contents determined by Kjeldahl Method were 6% higher than biodegradable nitrogen contents determined by $F{\"{o}}rster$ Method. Loss of nitrogen in compost was highest at early periods of composting and its losses determined by Kjeldahl Method and $F{\"{o}}rster$ Method in 30 weeks after composting were 50% and 48% of total nitrogen, respectively. Highly positive correlations were observed among total nitrogen determined by Kjeldahl Method, biodegradable nitrogen determined by Kjeldahl Method, total nitrogen determined by $F{\"{o}}rster$ Method and biodegradable nitrogen determined by $F{\"{o}}rster$ Method one another.

A new Bacillus strain designated as MP56 producing antimicrobial substance has been isolated from the mud flat of Korea. The strain MP56 was found to exhibit broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive pathogenic microorganisms and MDR (multi drug resistant) strains. The 16S rRNA sequence revealed that the MP56 was closely related to Bacillus subtilis with 99.93% homology. The optimal medium composition for production of antimicrobial substance in the B. subtilis MP56 were 1% mannitol, 1% oat meal, 0.01% $CaCl_2$. Antimicrobial activity of the culture broth against different pathogenic strains was assessed using the antimicrobial spectrum. The result suggests that Bacillus strain MP56 produces high quality antimicrobial substance that might be very useful to control varieties of pathogenic microbial growth.

The sterilization efficacies of various washing solutions on the surfaces of vegetables such as sesame leaves, lettuce, and mini-cabbage were investigated. The washing solutions were tap water (TW), microbubble water (MB), electrolyzed water (EW), and microbubble electrolyzed water (MB＋EW). After Escherichia coli and Bacillus cereus were artificially inoculated onto the surfaces of vegetables, each vegetable was washed for 1, 3, and 5 min with TW, MB, EW 100 (100 mg/L of available chlorine), EW 200 (200 mg/L of available chlorine), MB+EW 100, and MB＋EW 200. The washing efficacy of MB was slightly higher than that of TW, and EW was more effective than MB (p<0.05). In all instances, the sterilization efficacies of MB+EW 100 and MB+EW 200 were higher than those of EW 100 and EW 200 (p<0.05). Thus, MB+EW offers an effective means of reducing the studied microorganisms in a short time period. The MB＋EW washing method provides microbial reduction on the surfaces of various vegetables and enhances the microbiological safety of the vegetables.
