These studies were made to assess the present stage of resistance of Shigella species to antibiotics and to find characteristics of R-plasmid of these bacteria. From 1986 to 1988, 125 strains of Shigella species were isolated from patients specimens collected in Chung Cheong-do Hospital, Kyunghee Medical Center, city an provincial health & environmental institutes. These specimens were tested for resistance to 12 kinds of antimicrobial agents by agar dilution method. Using Muller-Hinton agar for the assay of drug resistance and Trypticane Soy Broth as propagating medium for conjugation. All the strains (100%) were resistant to one or more antibiotics. Drug resistance patterns of isolated strains were found as the highest resistance to ampicillin (98%) in 1986, to tetracycline (98%) in 1987, to tetracycline (100%) in 1988, all strains were sensitive to gentamicin, amikacin, tobramycin. Chronologically, resistance decreased gradually as it was shown in relation to kanamycin, rifampicin in 1986, 1987 and 1988, (4%, 2%) (4%, 2%) (0%, 0%) respectively. But, resistance was increased year by year as it was shown in relation to tetracycline, nalidixic acid, streptomycin in 1986, 1987, 1988 (89%, 19%, 45%) (98%, 46%, 71%) and (100%, 58%, 88%). The resistance in correlation to more than 5 drugs, which was 13 strains among 47 strains in 1986, 38 strains among 87 strains in 1987, 23 strains among 26 strains in 1988, was increased gradually. In the transfer test of drug resistance by conjugation methods, the rate which was 3 strains (50%) in 1986, 8 strains (62%) in 1987, 3 strains (100%) in 1988, was increased gradually. When the donor strains were conjugated with the recipient strains, the conjugation rate was high in the multiple resistant strains. The relationships of transferring patterns of drug resistance and molecular weight of R-plasmid were variable. However, only a plasmid which has more than 35 Mgd was transferred.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a microaerophilic spiral bacterium and infection by it in the human stomach causes gastritis, furthermore, it is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcers and the development of gastric carcinoma. We assessed the inhibitory activity of new antiulcer drugs against Helicobacter pylori. The activities of new antiulcer agents against Helicobacter pylori strains were determined by the standard agar dilution method with blood agar base #2, supplemented with 5% sheep blood and 4 antibiotics to support growth of these organisms. They were inoculated by multipoint inoculator and incubated at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 3 days under microaerophilic atmosphere. The MIC of antiulcer agents was the lowest concentration that inhibited visible growth of these organisms. According to results of various biochemical tests, these bacteria were identified as Helicobacter pylori strains. And the MIC results showed that the strains were very susceptible to omeprazole and YJA20379s. Some of YJA20379s were more potent than omeprazole. These results suggest that our new antiulcer drugs have potent inhibitory activity against Helicobacter pylori, so that our new antiulcer drugs might be useful for the clinical eradication of gastrointestinal Helicobacter pylori.

본 연구에서는 지금까지 알려진 바와 달리 항균활성의 적용범위가 모호한 actinonin을 대표적 식중독균인 B. cereus에 적용함으로써 식중독균에 대한 항균 효과에 대해 연구하였다. 계대배양된 대수기의 B. cereus에 actinonin을 처리하여 생장 저해 여부를 확인하였고, 96-well plate를 이용한 broth micro-dilution 방법과 agar disk diffusion 방법을 통해 actinonin의 B. cereus에 대한 항균활성을 측정해본 결과, actinonin의 농도에 비례하여 B. cereus의 생장이 저해되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, actinonin의 처리에 따른 B. cereus의 세포 독성 측정 결과 actinonin이 B. cereus의 세포 독성 또한 억제하는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서, actinonin은 천연항균물질로서 B. cereus에 의한 식품 오염을 억제하고 식중독 예방 및 잠재적 치료제로서 적용 될 가능성이 있는 것으로 관찰되었으며, 나아가 다른 식중독균들에 대한 적용 가능성 탐색과 관련한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antibacterial effect of the low temperature atmospheric plasma device with needle tip designed for easy approach to the oral cavity and root canal against Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans. The antibacterial activities evaluated by measuring clear zone of agar plate smeared with each bacteria after plasma treatment. To quantify antibacterial effects, dilution plate method was used. In addition, scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used for observation of changes in bacterial morphology. As treatment time of plasma increased, the clear zone was enlarged. The death rate was more than 99%. The SEM results showed that the globular shape of bacteria was distorted. These results suggest that needle tip plasma could be an innovative device for prevention of dental caries, and treatment of apical infection and soft tissue diseases.

This study evaluated the anti-Helicobacter and anti-inflammatory effects of Sohamhyungtang (SHHT). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of SHHT against Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) was determined by the agar dilution method. Expression of the H. pylori cagA gene in the presence of SHHT was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Inhibition of H. pylori urease by SHHT was determined by the phenol-hypochlorite assay. Antiadhesion activity of SHHT was measured by urea-phenol red reagent. Inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production in AGS cells was measured with Griess reagent. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and IL-8 mRNA expression in AGS cells which were infected with H. pylori was determined by qRT-PCR. IL-8 level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The MIC of SHHT was $100{\mu}g/mL$ and the expression of cagA gene was decreased about 25 folds in the presence of SHHT. H. pylori urease was inhibited 90% by SHHT. SHHT inhibited H. pylori adhesion on AGS cell in a concentration dependent manner. mRNA expression of iNOS and IL-8 and the production of NO and IL-8 were significantly decreased in the presence of SHHT. In conclusion, SHHT showed anti-Helicobacter activity and has potent anti-inflammatory effect on H. pylori-induced inflammation in human gastric epithelial AGS cells.

A series of 6-(N-aylamono)-7-chloro-5, 8-quinolinedione derivatives was newly synthesized for the evaluation of antifugal activities. 5-Amino-8-hydroxy-quinoline (II) was treated with $KCLO_3$ in HCl to give 6,7-dichloro-5,8-quinolinediones (III). 6-(N-Arylamino)-7-chloro5,8-quinolinediones 1-13 were prepared by regioselective nucleophilic substitution of III with arylamines. In the presence of $CeCl_3$, the N-arylamono groups were introduced at the 6-position of 5,8-quinolinedione ring by the regioselective substitution. These derivatives 1-12 were tested for natifungal and also antibacterial activites, in vitro, against Canadida albicans, Aspergillus nier, Tricophyton mentagrophytes, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coil. The MIC values were determined by the two-fold agar/steak dilution method. Newly obtained 6-(N-arylamino)-7-chloro5,8-quinolinedione derivatives showed potent antifungal and antibacterial activities. Among these derivatives, 1,3,5,7,8 and 9 showed more potent antifungal activities than fluconazole and griseofulvin. Also most of derivatives were found to be more active than ampicillin against gram-positive bacteria. 1 and 7 showed the very potent antifungal activities. 1 was the most efective in preventing the growth of Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, Tricophyton mentagrophytes, Bacillus subtills and Staphylococcus aureus at MIC $1.6\;\mu{g/ml}$.
