Antimicrobial activity of yellow pigment produced by Monascus anka Y7 (Y7) was studied. The crude yellow pigment of Y7 showed antimicrobial activity against some bacteria and yeasts. The diameter of inhibition zone against gram-positive bacteria was a little smaller t]fan that of gram-negative bacteria to the crude yellow pigment. Especially, E2 fraction obtained from the crude yellow pigment by TLC method showed high anti-microbial activity against E. coli.. The fraction had bright yellow pigment, showing fluorescent light and having the maximum absorption at 373 nm. Citrinin, a mycotoxin which had been characterized as an antimicrobial substance from a Monascus strain, was not detected in the E2 fraction and in the crude yellow pigment by the results of TLC and HPLC. This indicates that the antimicrobial activity of Y7 pigments did not any relationship with citrinin. Yellow degree (b/a of Hunters color value) of Y7 pigment was much higher than that of other natural colorants such as annatto, gardenia yellow and carthamus yellow. But the colors of all of the yellow pigments were similar by panels. Thus, the yellow pigment of Y7 could be used as a useful alternative colorant for food industry, having the advantage of antimicrobial activity.

This research evaluates the antibacterial and transparency properties of UV-curable paint augmented with 20wt% copper particles. The transparency assessment indicated that the paint maintained a total luminous transmittance of 90% or above, thereby matching or surpassing the performance of standard UV-curing paints. To further test its antibacterial capabilities, wooden flooring boards were coated with the UV-curable paint laced with 20wt% copper particles, which had been surface-modified with a silane coupling agent. Following the fatigue tests of these treated boards, an impressive bacterial reduction rate of 99.9% was noted after a span of 6 hours, demonstrating the paint's exceptional antibacterial performance.

The polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based activated carbon fibers (ACFs) containing copper metal were electrolytically prepared in introducing the antibacterial activity into ACFs. The antibacterial activity was investigated by dilution test against Staphylococous aureus (S. aureus; gram positive and virulence) and Klebsiella pnemoniae (K. pnumoniae: gram negative and avirulence). The micropore and textural properties of the ACFs containing copper metal were characterized by BET, t-plot, and H-K methods. The ACFs showed slight decreases in BET's specific surface area, micropore volume, and total pore volume as copper metal increased. However, the antibacterial activities of the ACFs were strongly increased against S. aureus as well as K. pnumoniae, which could be attributed to the presence of copper metal in CU/ACFs systems.

A bacterium producing antimicrobial substance was isolated from cheonggukjang. The bacterium was identified as a strain of Bacillus subtilis by 16S rDNA sequencing and designated as Bacillus subtilis HH28. The antimicrobial substance produced from Bacillus subtilis HH28 was purified by 0-80% ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-sepharose FF column chromatography, and Sephacryl S-200 HR gel chromatography. The molecular weight of the purified antimicrobial substance was estimated to be approximately 3,500 Da using Tricine sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and direct detection analysis. Antimicrobial substance from B. subtilis HH28 not only inhibited B. cereus, but also Listeria monocytogenes and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The purified antimicrobial substance was stable at $40-80^{\circ}C$, and between pH 2 and 8. Antimicrobial activity of the purified substance was completely destroyed by treatment of protease, proteinase K, and pronase E, indicating that it is proteinaceous.

Antimicrobial activity of Korean leek was effective on Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, E. coli O157:H7, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pichia membranaefaciens. Extract from raw Korean leek and that from frozen one showed antimicrobial activity; in contrast, extract stored frozen condition or extract from blanched one lost antimicrobial activity. Filtration, centrifugation, and vacuum concentration did not affect antimicrobial activity of the leek, nor did the changes in storage pHs. Addition of ground leek to soy milk, soy curd, and broth for cold noodle resulted in the prolonged shelf life by significantly reducing the number of viable cells.

This paper presents an invetigation into the cause of deterioration of wet surrounding RC structures subjected to checmical attacks such as sewage. The antibacterial-reforming agent is developed after determining the permeability of the RC structure. After application of the anitbacterial-reforming agent through SEM, the permeability, compressive strength properties and the micro-structure of the concrete were evaluated for durability. In addition, the antibacterial-reforming agent was combined with a protective coating for the wet surrounding RC structure and evaluated for durability. The combined effect of the antibacterial-reforming agent and the protective coating were evaluated in field tests in both sewer system and tunnel sites.

We investigated the biochemical properties of insect defensin expressed and secreted from Saccharomyces corevisiae. The defensin showed extremely high resistance to boiling for up to 30 min and to pH values tested from 2.0 to 12.0. The treatment of defensin with various proteases abolished antibacterial activity. However, amylases, cellulase, lipase and catalase had no effect on the activity. The defensin was purified to homogeneity through ammonium sulfate concentration of culture supernatant, SP-Sepharose column chromatography and RP-HPLC. Tricin-SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that the molecular weight of the defensin was about 4.0 kDa. The antibacterial activity of the purified defensin was verified by renaturation of stained gel and gel pouring assay using Micrococcus luteus as a test organism.

벼 잎집무늬마름병균(Rhizoctonia solani)의 균핵에서 분리한 길항세균 SJ-2를 대치 배양 방법에 의해 벼도열병균(Pyricularia oryzae)외 6종의 식물 병원균에 대한 억제 효과를 조사하였다. 형태 및 생리적 특성을 조사한 결과, 이 균은 Bacillus subtilis로 동정되었다. 이 균은 AM 1(antibiotic medium 1)액체 배지에서 항균 물질을 분비하였으며, 배양 2일째 가장 항균 활성이 높았다. Butyl alcohol로 배양액에서 항균 물질을 조추출하여 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml의 농도로 조제한 감자 한천 배지에서 P. oryzae의 15개균에 대한 생육을 조사한 결과 P. oryzae, R. solani, Cochliobolus sativus에 대해서는 100% 생장을 억제하였으며, C. miyabeanus, Alternaria alternata, Botrytis cinerea, Cladosporium fulvum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium moniliforme, F. oxysporum에는 80% 이상의 억제 효과를 보인 반면 난균강에 속하는 병원균에 대한 효과는 낮게 나타났다. 활성물질을 분리 정제하여 동정한 결과 B. subtilis가 분비하는 항균 물질로 알려진 polypeptides계의 iturins로 밝혀졌다. 이러한 항균 물질은 벼 도열병균(P. oryzae)의 포자 발아 및 발아관의 팽대(swelling)를 야기했으며, 벼 잎집무늬마름병균(R. solani)에는 균사의 용균(lysis)현상을 일으켰다.

폴리우레탄 필름을 이용하여 등산복, 스포츠 웨어, 보호복 등 많은 의복이 제조되고 있으며, 현재 폴리우레탄 필름에 항균성을 부여하여 메디컬 소재에 적용되고 있다. 항균성을 부여하는 물질은 제올라이트. 수산화아파타이트, 실리카 겔을 이용한 많은 무기 항균제가 사용되고 있다. 이들중 특히 수산화아파타이트는 생체친화력 및 이온교환 능력이 우수하여 인공뼈 또는 인공치아로 사용되고, 환경분야에서는 이온교환수지로 중금속 제거를 위하여 사용되기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 폴리우레탄 필름 내부의 비드 간극 및 크기를 제어하여 비드콘 구조를 가지는 폴리우레탄 필름을 제조하였고 수산화아파타이트에 다양한 조건으로 은이온을 흡착시켜 은의 최적 흡착 조건을 설정하고 은이 흡착된 수산화아파타이트의 입자를 제어하여 다양한 종류의 입자를 제조하고 입자별 항균성을 평가하였다. 최종적으로 개발된 비드콘 폴리우레탄 필름과 은담지 수산화아파타이트를 여러가지 조건으로 복합화하여 항균성을 가지는 아파타이트복합 폴리우레탄필름을 제조하고 개발된 필름의 항균성 및 그 특성을 분석하여 보았다.
