-4-Quinolone antibiotics (pefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, norfoxacin, ofloxacin and enoxacin) were tested for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA1538 and TA102, for chromosomal aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells, and for wing somatic mutations and recombinations (wing spot) in Drosophila. Five 4-quinolones did not show any mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538. However, they were mutagenic inSalmonella typhimurium TA102 with and without metabolic activation in both plate incorporation method and preincubation method. Ciprofloxacin induced structural chromosome aberrations in CHL cells both with and without metabolic activation, and the frequencies were 6% and up to 28%, respectively. Pefloxacin showed equivocal evidence, however, norfloxacin, ofloxacin and enoxacin did not induce the structural chromosome aberrations both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. In the wing spot assay in Drosophila, ofloxacin increased the frequency of small single spots significantly in a dose-dependent manner but there was no dose-dependent increase of single or twin spots in the others.

This study aimed to apply the Parallux system to detect (fluoro)quinone antibiotics residues in raw bovine milk. The immunogen enabled the generation of a specific antiserum with a titer of 1/40,000. The $Parallax^{TM}$ kit using the antibody displayed $IC_{50}$ value of 10 to 150 ppb for (fluoro)quinolone antibiotics. $Parallax^{TM}$ kit was also sensitive for the detection of incurred (fluoro)quinolone at Korean Maximum Residual Levels in raw bovine milk as the result of dose response test. Cross reactivities of the antibody with the common (fluoro)quinolones were determined to be norfloxacin, 100%; enrofloxacin, 100%; ciprofloxacin, 100%; danofloxacin, 100%; nalidixic acid, 40%. Lower detection limit (LOD) values of the $Parallax^{TM}$ kit in raw bovine milk were determined to be norfloxacin, 4 ppb; enrofloxacin, 5 ppb; danofloxacin, 5 ppb; ciprofloxacin, 5 ppb and nalidixic acid, 10 ppb. The $Parallax^{TM}$ kit was run 8 times with five different concentrations of norfloxacin to determine the coefficient of variation (CV, %) of intra-assay, which was between 2.7% and 11.8%. To confirm the precision among kit batches for the inter-assay, five different batch kits were tested with 2 different concentration of norfloxacin. The CVs of the inter assay were 4.2% at 50 ppb, and 7.2% at 10 ppb norfloxacin, respectively.

Clinically isolated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains were exposed to subinhibitory concentration of DW286, DW-224a, gemifloxacin, trovafloxacin, sparfloxacin and ciprofloxacin during 26- to 39-days period. Subculturing led to resistance development, and most of the selected mutants were above susceptible breakpoints. Selected mutants had broad cross resistance to other quinolone antibiotics and only one mutant was completely susceptible to all fluoroquinolones. Twenty five among 42 mutants revealed mutations on DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV by sequencing. Also 16 mutants had fluoroquinolones MICs that were 4-32 times lower in the presence of reserpine. In conclusion, alterations in DNA gyrase or topoisomerase IV and action of efflux pumping out system are the resistance mechanisms of DW-224a.

식품 내의 잔류 항생물질의 검사는 주로 미생물의 생육 억제 여부를 통한 생물학적인 분석을 이용한다. 이러한 방법은 여러 가지 계열의 항생제들에 대한 미생물의 민감성을 토대로 이용되고 있다. 그러나 현재 사용하고 있는 미생물들로는 동물용의약품으로 허가되어 식용동물에 사용되고 있는 점점 다양해지는 항생제 및 합성항균제를 식품에서 모두 검출할 수는 없다는 한계가 있다. 그러므로 본 연구는 검출 가능한 항생제 및 합성항균제 계열의 범위를 확대하고, 각 약품별 감도를 증진시키기 위한 새로운 방법들을 조사하였다. B. megaterium ATCC 9885, B. subtilis ATCC 6633, B. cereus ATCC l1778 and Geobacillus stearothermophilus (B. stearothermophilus) ATCC 10149를 사용한 검사의 민감성은 macrolides, quinolones와 monensin, chloramphenicol에 대한 검출 감도가 낮았다. 반면에 M. luteus(K. rhizophila) ATCC 9341는 macrolides에 대한 높은 검출 감도를 나타냈고, E. coli ATCC l1303는 quinolones와 aminoglycosides에 대한 높은 민감성을 나타냈다. 결론적으로, 두 균주의 추가로 검출가능한 항생제 및 합성항균제의 범위를 확대하였으며, 검출감도를 높일 수 있게 되었다.

Staphylococcus aureus is a prominent multidrug-resistant pathogen known for its resistance to a variety of antibiotics. To combat this, a wide range of antibiotics, including quinolones, is utilized. While the efficacy of quinolones against S. aureus has been established, the rise in quinolone-resistant strains, particularly in methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), has necessitated a shift in their usage patterns. Genomic sequencing plays a crucial role as it offers insights into the genetic mechanisms of resistance. Thus, we report the complete genome sequence of an oxolinic acid-resistant strain of S. aureus isolated from sweet potato leaves, a crop commonly cultivated in Korea.

목 적 : 올바른 항생제의 사용을 위해서는 우선 항생제 사용 실태의 파악과 함께 검사실의 확충, 의료진의 협조 등 다양한 노력과 보완이 요구된다. 본 연구는 적절한 항생제 사용의 기반을 마련하고자 현재 시행되고 있는 항생제 사용 실태를 조사하였다. 방 법 : 전북대학교병원에 입원한 환자 총 1,833명을 대상으로 의무기록을 통하여 항생제의 사용 여부, 종류, 사용 기간, 용량, 항생제의 투약 시작 시기 및 투여 목적을 조사하였다. 결 과 : 전체 조사 대상 환자 1,833명 중 입원 기간 중 항생제를 사용한 환자는 1,231명으로 67.2%였으며, 계별로 살펴보면 내과계는 전체 1,014명 중 497명(49.0%)이 항생제를 사용하였고, 외과계는 819명 중 734명(89.6%)에서 항생제를 사용하였다. 전체 항생제를 사용한 환자 1,231명 중 706명(57.4%)에서 예방 목적으로 사용하였고, 525명(42.6%)에서 치료 목적으로 사용하였다. 항생제를 사용한 환자의 경우 사용된 항생제의 갯수를 살펴보면 총 1,231명 중 1가지 항생제를 사용한 경우는 125명(10.2%)이었으며, 2가지를 사용한 경우는 311명(25.3%), 3가지를 사용한 경우는 562명(45.6%), 4가지 이상을 사용한 경우는 233명(18.9%)으로, 70% 이상의 환자에서 3가지 이상의 항생제가 사용하였다. 사용 항생제의 종류는 ${\beta}$-lactam, aminoglycoside, quinolone, macrolide, 항진균제, metronidazole, clindamycin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, glycopeptide, 그리고 fosfomycin 등으로 아주 다양하였다. 전체적인 그룹별 사용률을 보면 ${\beta}$-lactam은 57.0%, aminoglycoside는 34.5%, quinolone은 3.6% 그리고 기타 그룹은 4.9%로, ${\beta}$-lactam과 aminoglycoside가 가장 많이 사용되었다. 결 론 : 대부분의 환자에서 2가지 이상의 항생제의 병합요법이 보편화되어 있다는 점은 진지하게 검토되어야 할 것으로 생각된다. 아울러 임상적으로 전신 세균 감염이 확실한 경우에도 원인 병원체를 찾아내기 위한 적극적인 노력이 부족한 경우도 상당수 있어 이에 대해서도 검사실과 함께 적극적인 개선의 노력이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 수술 환자의 예방적 화학 요법에 대해서도 개선이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This survey was carried out to detect the residual antibiotics in beef (n = 1,071), pork (n=7,837) and chicken (n=1,536) from slaughter houses in Gyeongbuk province by EEC-4 plate method, Charm II and HPLC during 2005. Residues of antibiotic were detected from 9 beef (0.8%) and 119pork (1.52%) by EEC-4 plate method, and total positive rates were 1.23% (128). 126 samples of the 128 positive samples by the EEC-4 plate method were detected by charm II test. 128 samples were classified as tetracyclines 110 (95.5%), ${\beta}$-lactam 2 (1.6%), sulfonamide 22 (17.2%), quinolone 1 (0.8%). The highest residual concentration of oxytetracycline, tetracycline, chlor-tetracycline, penicillin, sulfamethazine, sulfadimethoxine, sulfaquinoxaline, sulfamerazine, sulfamonomethoxine and enrofloxacin were 7.57, 0.27, 0.40, 0.24, 14.24, 4.33, 8.59, 0.12, 0.09 and 1.98 ppm, respectively and 49 samples were exceeded legal admitted levels.

The post-antibiotic effect (PAE), which is defined as the period of time lag that the target organisms resume normal growth rate after complete removal of the antibiotics, of LB 20304 and ciprofloxacin was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus 6538p and Escherichia coli 3190Y, respectively. The PAE was estimated by adding each antibiotic to a log phase of growth and incubating at $37^{\circ}$C for 1 h.Antibiotic was removed by centrifugation, and total viable cell counts were determined hourly for a further 10 h. The PAEs of LB20304 against S. aureus at concentrations of $1{\times}MIC\;and\;2{\mu}g/ml$ were 10 min and 93min, respectively. LB20304 showed a comparable PAE to ciprofloxacin. Against E. coli, the PAE of LB20304 was also similar to that of ciprofloxacin at concentration of $4{\times}MIC$ but it was much longer than that of ciprofloxacin at concentration of 2${\mu}g/ml$. LB20304 showed higher lethality than ciprofloxacin against both S. aureus and E. coli strains.

Objectives: This study was carried out to provide safe seafood to the public through simultaneous analysis rapid inspections for residual veterinary drugs in 150 fishery products in 2016. Methods: Quinolones (9), Sulfonamides (14), Penicillins (2), Cephalosporins (3), Tetracyclines (4), Macrolides (4), Lincosamides (2), Pleuromutilin (1), Phenicols (4), benzylpyrimidines (2), Others (1) Malachite green (2), and Melamine (1) were analyzed for 49 species using by HPLC and HPLC-MSMS. Results: There were six unsuitable samples, five among fish and one for crustaceans. Within the standard detection were five fish. The antibiotics found were Quinolones (50%), Tetracyclines (33%) and Penicillins (17%). Conclusions: As a result of the experiment, there were six unsuitable samples, five for fish and one for crustaceans. The most prevalent antibiotics were Quinolones. The quinolone antibiotics are highly persistent in fish tissues, so they require more time than the withdrawal period for other common veterinary drugs. Careful attention is required when they are used in fish farms.
