  • 흙에는 세균이나 곰팡이 같은 미생물들이 수없이 서식하고 있다. 이들은 흙 속에 포함된 유기물질들을 먹고 살며 빠른 속도로 증식을 한다. 그러나 미생물들이 끝없이 증식할 수는 없다. 이들이 섭취할 영양분이 고갈되기 때문이다. 이때부터는 전쟁이다. 주변에 서식하는 다른 미생물들의 공격을 피해야 하며 상대를 꼼짝 못하게 만들 공격을 가해야 한다. 겉으로 보기에 별일 없을 것 같은 흙이지만, 사실상 치열한 전투가 벌어지고 있는 것이다.

  • The changes of total carbohydrates and trehalose levels during differentiation of A. niger were studied. Aspergillus niger was cultivated in Czapeck-Dox medium by the method of surface culture and shake culture. Total carbohydrates and trehalose were fractionated and determined by the method of Trevelyan and Harrison (1956). Total carbohydrates and trehalose accumulated in A. niger during sporulation. The influences of nutritional starvation on the levels of cellular carbohydrates in A. niger, which was cultivated in each nitrogen, phosphate and glucose limited Czapeck-Dox medium, were studied. The levels of total carbohydrates and trehalose in A. niger cultivated in nitrogen limited medium increased much than those cultured in full medium. The total carborates and trehalose levels in A. niger cultivated in phosphate limited medium increased, but the increases were less than those cultured in nitrogen limitted medium. In glucose limited medium, any changes of total carbohydrates and trehalose levels were not found. It is considered that the biochemical mechanisms responsible for the changes of total carbohydrates and trehalose levels may be related with differentiation of Aspergillus niger.

  • To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of green tea against putrefactive microorganism in steamed bread, antibacterial activity of green tea extract against well-known strains of spoilage bacteria (Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Bacillus pulmilus KCTC 3348 and Bacillus cereus IFO 12113) and mold (Aspergillus niger KCCM l1239) in bread was determined using the paper disk method. The green tea extract (GTE) showed the inhibition effects on the growth of all the strains of bacteria and mold at 1, 2, 3% levels. The activity of GTE was stable in the wide range of pH (4~9) and temperature (50~20$0^{\circ}C$). When green tea powder (GTP: 1, 3, 5%) was added to steamed bread increase of total bacterial and mold counts declined during storage at 25"C as the levels of GTP increased. By addition of 5% GTP, mold appeared 1 day late extending shelf life of steamed bread compared to control bread without GTP. Therefore, the levels of GTP added to steamed bread could be more than 5% for extended shelf life and wholesomeness of steamed bread.read.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the hazard of fungi in Garaetteok (Korean rice cake) by isolating and identifying of fungi contaminated with Garaetteok and investigating the possibility of mycotoxin production. Garaetteok used in this study were the ones that were returned back to the manufacturers in Jeollanam-do due to the presence of foreign matters presumed to be fungi. The fungi foreign matter was collected and inoculated on Potato dextrose agar, Malt extract agar, and Czapek yeast extract agar, and then cultured at 25℃ for 7 days. The micro-structure was observed under an optical microscope for the colonies in which pure isolation was confirmed. The gene sequencing of the product of amplified PCR was analyzed using the ITS primer. Colony-1 and 2 maintained the same properties in each tray, confirming that they were purely isolated. Budding cells were observed from the Colony-1, thus, it was determined to be yeast. Colony-2 was determined to be a fungus that belongs to Fusarium spp. as fusiform conidia were observed. As a result of gene sequencing, a total of 76 cases of fungi of Fusarium spp. were found, among which Fusarium solani was the most observed cases (53 cases). From the morphological and genetic identification, Colony-2 was identified as Fusarium spp., specifically, Fusarium solani. The fungi found in Fusarium spp. produce mycotoxins such as nivalenol, zearalenone, and fumonisin, which may cause vomiting, diarrhea, and cancer. Conclusively, the results confirm the possibility of mycotoxin production by Fusarium spp. isolated from Garaetteok. Consequently, when an unknown fungus was found, it is necessary to isolate and identify the fungus, determine whether it is a mycotoxin producing species, and strengthen relative administrative measures, accordingly.

  • Kochujang-gulbi, a traditional food in Chonnam province of Korea, was prepared with kochujang and dried gulbi slices. The crude lipid contents of kochujang and gulbi in the product were 3.08% and 15.6% at 0 day, respectively. After 7 days, the lipid contents were changed to 8.15% and 9.72%. The moisture content and VBN of kochujang and gulbi in the product were reached to the equilibrium after 7 days. In the kochujang-gulbi product, the TBARS value in gulbi was reduced because the lipid from gulbi permeated into kochujang, while the value in kochujang was increased. To prevent the growth of microorganisms and lipid oxidation from the kochujang-gulbi, 0.5% (w/v) garlic extract, citron essential oil, or ethanol was added to the product. The garlic extract and ethanol were very effective to inhibit the growth of mold and yeast at 2$0^{\circ}C$. The products treated with the garlic extract and citron oil were shown significantly lower microbial number than control for 30 days storage. The addition of citron oil to kochujang-gulbi showed lower TBARS value than other treatment.

  • Recently, due to COV ID-19, many people are spending most of their time indoors. So, there is a rising interest on the indoor air quality in the field of building construction. The main sources for the indoor air pollution are human indoors activity, building materials, living supplies and the polluted air from outdoor. The Korean government has designated 17 indoor air pollutants including fine dust, total airborne bacteria, fungi and carbon dioxide, etc.. Most people are always exposed to assorted bacteria and molds in our daily life, because indoor environment for human, moderate temperature are humidity, it is favourable to the growth of most of bacteria and fungi. Pine needles have an antibacterial effect against bacteria and fungi. In this study, the antibacterial activity against bacteria and fungi was tested by cement matrix using pine needle extract. As a result, the cement matrix using pine needle extract showed antibacterial activities against bacteria, but in the case of fungi, it did not show antifungal activity.

  • Cherry tomato was packed with several plastic films, and investigated the quality characteristics such as gas composition, weight loss, microbial load, soluble solid content, total acidity during storage at 12$\^{C}$. Cast polypropylene(CPP), low density polyethylene(LDPE), polyolefin(MPD, PD961) and perforated polyolefin(PY85) were used as packaging film. Oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration inside packages generally showed a stabilized levels after 10 days, but those of CPP and PD961 changed throughout the storage. Weight loss of PY85 was 25.6 % after 20 days, while others maintained around 1.0%. Total microbial count showed a increase pattern similar to yeast and mold, and CPP maintained the highest microbial load after 10 days. MPD retarded the decay of cherry tomato to 5.3%, while others showed above 20% after 20 days.

  • The study was conducted to isolate and identify highly fibrolytic anaerobic fungi from the guts of a Hanwoo steer and a Korean native goat, and then investigate the characterization of cellulolytic activity of an anaerobic fungus. Twenty-one anaerobic fungal colonies were isolated in the study, in which 16 colonies were isolated from the rumen contents of the Hanwoo steer and 5 colonies from the duodenal fluids of the Korean native goat. Four anaerobic fungi were selected based on higher cellulolytic enzyme activities to identify under a optical microscope. NLRI-M003 and -T004 belong to Neocallimastix genus and NLRI-M014 belongs to Piromyces genus based on the morphology of their thallus, sporangia, rhizoid and the number of flagella. NLRI-M001 appeared to be an unknown strain of anaerobic fungi due to its different morphology from existing types of anaerobic fungi, though the morpholgoy is similar to Orpinomyces sp. Supplementation of 2% anaerobic fungal culture(NLRI-M003) in rumen-mixed microorganisms increased in vitro DM degradability of rice straw and filter paper up to 4 and 11%, respectively, compared with non-supplementation(control). CMCase and xylanase activities in in vitro culture were also higher in 2% fungal supplementation than controls in both rice straw and filter paper substrates.
