An attempt was made to isolate Salmonella(S) organisms from a total of 4,587 fecal samples of birds during the period from May 1987 to March 1988, and serotype and biotypes of the isolates were also investigated. One hundred and sixty-six Salmonella strains were isolated from 151(3.3%) of 4,587 fecal samples of birds, and their serotype was all identified as S typhimurium var copenhagen. The positive samples of S typhimurium var copenhagen were 149 samples(5.1%) in pigeons and 2 samples (0.8%) in aquatic birds. No Salmonella was obtained from ducks, pheasant, and other birds. The isolation frequencies of S typhimurium var copenhagen from pigeons varied from 1.1 to 12.8% at 5 parks, it was higher in September and November. Biotypes of 166 S typhimurium var copenhagen strains isolated from pigeons and aquatic birds were all biotype 10 according to Brandis' method, and were biotype 25hi (78.3%), 27 hi (14.5%), 25 fhi (3.6%), 25 bhi (1.8%), 27 bhi (0.6%), 27 hiz (0.6%), and 9 hi (0.6%) according to Duguid's scheme. Appearance of different biotypes indicated the occurrence of exotic infection sources on the parks.

A study on the isolation of Yersinia from the feces of healthy pigs and the biotype and serotype and susceptibility to 16 antimicrobials was carried. Out of 853 pigs, Yersiniae were isolated from 349 pigs(40.9%). Of 349 isolates, 289 isolates(82.8%) were Yersinia enterocolitica and 54(15.5%) were Y kristensenii, 3(0.9%) were Y pesudotuberculosis and the rest 3(0.9%) were Y prederiksenii. Out of 289 isolates of Y enterocolitica, the predominants biotype was 3B comprising of 165 isolates(57.1%) and followed by biotype 2, comprising of 49 isolates(17.0%), bioptype 3A, comprising of 41 isolates(14.2%) and biotype 4 comprising of 23 isolates(8.0%). And the predominant serotype was 0 : 3 comprising of 231 isolates(79.9%) and followed by serotype 0 : 9 comprising of 42 isolates(14.5%) and 0 : 21 comprising of 10 isolates(3.5%). Y. enterocolitica were resistant to cephalothin(99%), novobiocin(99%), erythromycine(83%), ampicillin(83%) and carbenicillin(81%) and susceptible to amikacin(100%), colistin(100%), gentamicin(100%), kanamycin(100%), polymyxin B(100%), tobramycin(100%), chloramphenicol(99%), nalidixic acid(99%), neomycin(99%), streptomycin(99%) and tetracycline(99%). Most strains of biotype 2/serotype 0 : 9 were susceptible to carbenicillin(100%) and ampicillin(61%) but the other biotype/serotypes were resistant to these antibiotic.

A total of 277 mineral spring water samples in Kangwon province from 1999 to 2000 were analyzed for the presence of Yersinia spp. by the conventional Food and Drug Administration protocol, and presumptive strains were identified by morphological, cultural and biochemical tests according to Bergey’s manual. Also, the biotypes, serotypes, and susceptibility to 12 antibiotics were tested. Among the total 277 mineral spring water samples, 40 samples (14.4%) were found to be contaminated with Yersinia species. Among the 40 strains of Yersinia spp. isolates, 33 strains (82.5%) for Yersinia enterocolitica, 4 strains (10%) for Yersinia frederiksenii, 2 strains (5%) for Yersinia intermedia, and 1 strain (2.5%) for Yersinia sakazaki were identified, respectively. Of 40 Yersinia spp. isolates, Yersinia enterocolitica (82.5%) was the most predominant species in the mineral spring water samples compared to other Yersinia species. Compared to direct culture method after KOH treatment and KOH treatment method after cold enrichment for better isolation ratio of according to comparision of Yersinia species, the detection ration (18.5%) of KOH treatment method after cold enrichment was about 3 times better than that (6.1%) of direct culture method after KOH treatment. According to serotypes of Y. enterocolitica isolates, O : 5 (12.9%) was the most predominant and followed by O : 3 (9.7%), O : 8 (6.5%), and O : 9 (3.2%), and others. For biotypes of Y. enterocolitica isolates, 1A (71.0%) was the most predominantly abundant and followed by 3A (12.9%), 3B (9.7%), 1B (3.2%) and 5 (3.2%). Also, an antibiotic susceptibility test showed that Yersinia spp. isolates were very susceptible to the antibiotics tested, but they were very strongly resistant to ampicillin, cephalothin and carbenicillin.

In order to evaluate the clinical usefulness of maternal serum C-reactive protein measurement in early detection of infectious morbidity at term laboring women, serum C-reactive protein levels were measured in 521 healthy pregnant women ; 64 who were not in labor before term, 55 who were in labor before term, 71 who were not in labor at term and 331 who were in labor at term. The frequencies of elevated serum C-reactive protein level were compared in relation to the gestational weeks, the presence or absence of labor, the status of amniotic membranes and the degree of cervical dilation. The obtained results were as follows. 1. The frequencies of women with elevated serum C-reactive protein, 0.8mg/dl or higher and 2.0mg/dl or higher, in 521 health pregnant women were 12% and 4%, respectively. 2. C-reactive pretein levels of 0.8mg/dl or higher were more frequent in the group of women in labor than those not in labor(5.93%, vs. 13.73%, p<0.05), but the frequencies of C-reactive protein level of 2.0mg/dl or higher were not statistically different between both groups. The frequencies of C-reactive protein level of 0.8mg/dl or higher and 2.0mg/dl or higher were not statistically different between the groups before term and at term, intact and ruptured membranes, latent phase and active phase of labor, respectively. 3. Before term, C-reactive protein levels of 0.8mg/dl or higher and 2.0mg/dl or higher were more frequent in the group of women in labor than those not in labor(23.64 vs. 4.69, p<0.001 and 12.73% vs. 3.13%, p<0.05, respectively), but those statistical differences were not seen between both group at term. Above results and review of literature suggest that serum C-reactive protein level of 2.0mg/dl or higher may be reliable in early detection of infectious morbidity at term laboring women as well as laboring women before term, and the presence of subclinical infection should be suspected in the laboring women before term with serum C-reactive protein level of 0.8mg/dl or higher.

54 clinical isolates of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans showed distinct hybrdization patern(DAN fingerprinting patterns) when the bacterial DNA were hybridized with randomly cloned 4.7 - kb DNA probe. The frequency of the genotypic distribution demonstrated that type C was the most prevalent genotype, the next being D, NT, A, B, and E in the descending order. The most prevalent serotype was serotype c, the next being a, nd, and b in the descending order. It was noted that the one serotype can represent more than two different genotypes and that multiple genotypic variants can also exist in the periodontal pockets within the sam subject.

뎅기 바이러스는 전 세계적으로 빠르게 확산되고 있는 모기 매개 바이러스이다. 현재까지 4가지의 혈청형이 알려져 있는 뎅기 바이러스는 뎅기열, 뎅기 출혈열과 뎅기 쇼크증후군 등을 유발한다. 현재 뎅기 바이러스가 전 세계적으로 확산되고 있음에도 불구하고 확실한 치료제나 백신이 없기 때문에 초기 진단이 매우 중요하다. 아열대기후로 진입하는 우리나라에서도 흰줄숲모기가 자주 발견되기 때문에 이 질병으로부터 결코 자유롭지가 않다. 바이러스 감염을 진단하기 위한 진단키트를 개발하기 위해서는 타깃 유전자 부위 선정이 매우 중요하기 때문에 본 연구에서는 먼저 생명정보학을 기반으로 뎅기 바이러스만을 특이적으로 검출할 수 있는 항월결정부위를 예측하고 진단키트에 적용하고자 하였다. 4가지 유형의 뎅기 바이러스 유전자들을 찾고, ProtScale Tool 프로그램으로 친수성(hydrophilicity), 접근성(acc -essibility), 유연성(flexibility), 회전(${\beta}-turns$) 등의 특성을 분석하여 항원결정부위를 선정하였다. 이 항원결정부위를 이용하여 단일클론항체를 제작하였으며 향후 진단키트로의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

For the inspection of the occurrence situation of porcine pleuropneumonia and serotyping of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strains isolated from lung lesions of pig in Korea, a series of experimentation have been carried out by the isolation and identification of A pleuropneumoniae, serotyping by coagglutination test, observation of lung lesion and clinical signs from 360 cases of porcine pneumonia in Clinical Pathology Laboratory, Bayer Veterinary Medical Research Institute. The results could be summarized as follows. The reaction of coagglutination between the reference antigens and the specific reagents of A pleuropneumoniae was strongly agglutinatied within 30 seconds without cross reaction. The 89 strains of A pleuropneumoniae were isolated from 360 cases of porcine pleuropneumonis and the biochemical properties of the isolates were same as the reference strains. The 89 isolated strains could be serotyped 39 strains as setotype 5, 34 strains as serotype 2, 8 strains as serotype 3, 2 strains as serotype 7 by coagglutination test, respectively. The clinical signs of pleuropneumonia were weakness, fever, anorexia, dyspnea and laboured breath in the later stages. The gross lesions of lung were haemorrhages, enlargement of interlobular septa, nodular formation and adhesion of the pleura.
