In traditional medicines, Dansam-samul-tang and Samwhang-sasim-tang extracts were known to effects of antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. To investigate the safety evaluation of skin, these extracts were measured to skin safety testing such as primary skin irritation test, eye irritation test and skin sensitization test. The results of the primary skin irritation test and eye irritation test in vitro showed that these extracts included in the nonirritating area. Skin sensitization test results by Guinea Pig Maximization (GPMA) indicated that there was no allergy reaction. Therefore, Dansam-samul-tang and Samwhang-sasim-tang extracts were very safe in every safety test of skin. These results suggests that Dansam-samul-tang and Samwhang- sasim-tang extracts in 1 % concentration can be useful cosmetic ingredients.

도라지 추출농축액과 발효도라지 추출액을 이용하여 휴대가 편이하고 식용이 간편한 도라지 추출농축액 스틱제품을 제조하기 위하여 관능적 특성과 항산화 및 항균 활성을 최적화 목적으로 품질의 특성을 분석하였고 최적 배합 레시피를 산출하였다. 중심합성계획법(CCD)에 따라 도라지 추출농축액($X_1$), 발효도라지 추출액($X_2$), 천년초 추출액($X_3$)의 양을 독립변수로 하여 실험계획을 하고 데이터를 분석한 후 최적화하였다. 쓴맛과 아린맛, 흐름성 및 전반적인 기호도 등 관능적 특성과 항산화 및 항균 활성의 기능적 특성 모두 P-value가 5% 이내에서 유의성을 보여 모델의 적합성이 인정되었다. 관능적 특성에서는 쓴맛, 아린맛 및 흐름성에서는 도라지 추출농축액이 증가할수록 맛 및 흐름성에 강도가 높아졌고, 천년초 추출액이 증가할수록 점성이 높아져서 흐름성에 대한 기호도가 높아졌으며, 관능적인 특성에서 배합비의 최적치를 쓴맛과 아린맛은 최저치를, 흐름성과 기호도는 최대치를 목적으로 하였다. 이때 도라지 추출농축액, 발효도라지 추출액 및 천년초 추출액을 최적 배합치는 각각 8.00 g, 18.38 g 및 20.00 g이었으며, 쓴맛, 아린맛, 흐름성 및 전반적인 기호도에 대한 관능 결과값은 각각 3.259, 1.491, 5.218 및 6.037을 보였으며, 만족도는 쓴맛, 아린맛, 흐름성 및 전반적인 기호도 각각 0.9753, 1.0000, 0.6336 및 0.9093이었고 전체적으로 관능적인 면에서 만족도는 0.8658로 나타났다. 항산화 및 항균 활성은 도라지 추출농축액, 발효도라지 추출액 및 천년초 추출액 모두 첨가량이 증가할수록 높아지는 결과를 보였으며, 최대치를 목적으로 하였을 때 최적 배합치는 도라지 추출농축액, 발효도라지 추출액 및 천년초 추출액 각각 12.00 g, 20.00 g 및 18.38 g이었다. 이때 결과는 각각 93.405%의 항산화 효과와 45.306시간 동안 기관지질환 유발세균의 생육을 저지하였으며 만족도는 항산화 활성은 1.0000이었고 항균 활성에 대한 만족도는 0.9684였다. 관능적 특성과 기능적 특성을 동시에 반응표면분석한 결과 최적배합치는 도라지 추출농축액, 발효도라지 추출액 및 천년초 추출액 각각 8.456 g, 20.00 g 및 20.00 g이었으며, 이때 결과는 쓴맛, 아린맛, 흐름성 및 전반적인 기호도가 각각 3.424, 1.700, 5.105 및 6.033이었고, 85.53%의 항산화 활성과 34.27시간 동안 생육시간이 저지되었다. 최적 배합치에서 아린맛에 대한 만족도는 변함이 없었으나 기타 관능적인 면에서 만족도와 기능적인 만족도는 낮아졌으며 전체적인 만족도는 0.7596이었다.

황련은 한의학에서 진정, 소염, 항균 및 해열에 쓰이고 있으며, 주성분인 berberine은 강력한 항균작용을 가지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 황련에 대한 피부상재균 및 주거환경의 실내 낙하균에 대한 항균효과와 주거 환경에서 검출빈도가 높은 곰팡이에 대한 항진균 효과 및 인체에 대한 안전성을 조사하였다. 황련 열수 추출물(CW)은 Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis에 대해 항균 효과를 보였으며, 각기 다른 4곳에서 포집된 실내 낙하균에 대해서도 항균효과를 보였다. 100 mg/mL의 농도에서 42일까지 항균의 지속력과 열처리 후에도 항균력의 변화가 없는 열 안정성을 보여주었다. CW의 MIC와 MBC는 S. aureus는 0.03, 0.05 mg/mL, S. epidermidis는 0.50, 0.75 mg/mL, P. acne는 0.10, 0.15 mg/mL 였다. 주변 환경에서 검출빈도가 높은 5종의 곰팡이 중 4종에 대해 항진균 활성을 보였으며, 균사 생장의 100%를 억제할 수 있는 최저 농도로 결정하여 MIC를 측정한 결과 Gliocladium virens는 65 mg/mL이었다. Aureobasidium pullulans에 대한 MIC는 90 mg/mL, Penicilium pinophilum 및 Chaetomium globosum에 대한 MIC는 100 mg/mL로 측정되었다. 피부자극 테스트인 패치테스트와 안자극 테스트인 ocular mucous membrane irritation evaluation test에서도 CW는 자극을 보이지 않는 안전한 추출물로 간주되었다. 따라서, 이러한 결과는, 황련(Coptis chinensis)은 항균, 항진균 활성 및 인체 안전성을 가지는 화장품 및 주거 환경 산업의 소재 개발에 응용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

Enterococcus faecalis was isolated from the body fluid of dead Galleria mellonella larvae. Upon injection of E. faecalis into the hemocoel of G. mellonella, the bacteria destroyed parts of humoral defense systems in the hemolymph. In a test for the proteolytic activity of E. faecalis CS, it was confirmed that the enzyme degraded three well-known a-helical antimicrobial peptides, cecropin A, melittin and halocidin, and abolished their activities. We also determined putative cleavage sites on the primary sequences of three peptides through purification and mass analysis of peptide fragments digested by E. faecalis CS. Furthermore it was found that apolipophorin-III, recently known as a critical recognition protein for invading microbes in the hemolymph of G. mellonella, was also degraded by E. faecalis CS. Taken together, the present work shows that the protease in secretions from E. faecalis destroyed two critical humoral immune factors in the hemolymph of G. mellonella larvae. In addition, this paper demonstrates that the relationship between the host insect and the pathogenic bacteria might provide a valuable model system to study the enterococcal virulence mechanism, which may be relevant to mammalian pathogenesis.

Microorganisms were isolated and identified from bovine 296 quarters which showed positive reaction by California Mastitis Test (CMT) in 40 farms of Jeju from September 1999 to June 2000. The organisms associated with the mastitis of bovine were 11 different bacterial species in this study. Which of them, Staphylococcus aureus was the most predominant species as 152 (51.4%) isolates. Other identified species included 49 (16.5%) coliform, 47 (15.8%) Streptococcus dysgalactiae, 15 (5.1%) Bacillus spp., 8 (2.7%) Staphylococcus epidermidis, 6 (2.1%) Streptococcus agalactiae, 5 (1.7%) Enterococcus faecalis, 5 (1.7%) Corynebacterium spp., 3 (1.0%) Streptococcus uberis, 1 (0.3%) Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 1 (0.3%) Pasteurella haemolytica. Almost of all the islolated beacterial species showed high sensitivity against kanamycin (98.6%), cephalothin (98.0%), streptomycin (94.9%), gentamicin (94.6%), ampicillin (92.2%) and polymyxin B (90.2%). On the contrary, they showed resistance against penicillin (47.0%), tetracycline (37.2%), cefazolin (26.0%), bacitracin (22.6%) and erythromycin (19.9%). Eighty-one isolates were not resistant to any antibiotics and 215 drug resistant isolates showed 89 different drug resistance patterns from single to nine multiple antibiotics resistance patterns.

Seventy-two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from the patients were tested for pigment production, exoenzyme production and antimicrobial susceptibility. In the pigment production test, 23.6% of total 72 strains produced both pyocyanine and pyoverdin. Pyoverdin and pyomelanin producing strains were in 9.7%, and 5.5% produced pyoverdin and pyorubin. Strains producing of all of exoenzyme, protease, elastase and lecithinase were in 5.6%. The most common type of exoenzyme production was both protease and elastase producing. Protease producing strain were 23.6%, Among the 72 strains, 50% produced protease. As the result of antimicrobial susceptibility in the isolated 20 strain, most strain were resistant to sulfamethoxazole(90%), but sensitive to other tested antibiotics more than 60%. The MIC50 and MIC90 level of tested antibiotics to 70 strains were 128 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$, 512 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ for KM, 8,256 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ for GM, 8, 128 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ for CPZ, and 8, 64 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ for PIPC respectively.

Biotransformation is often used to improve chemical activity. We evaluated the antimicrobial activity of rhapontigeuin, converted from rhapontin after treatment with Pectinex. Rhapontigenin showed 4-16 times higher antimicrobial activity than rhapontin. The activity was higher against Gram-positive strains than Gram-negative strains. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of rhapontigenin, retinol, and five antibiotics were determined by the microbroth dilution method for antibiotic-sensitive and -resistant Propionibacterium acnes. We also investigated the in vitro antibacterial activity of rhapontigenin in combination with antibiotic against antibiotic-resistant P. acnes. The antibiotic combination effect against resistant P. acnes was studied by the checkerboard method. The combination formulations (rhapontigenin and clindamycin, retinol and clindamycin) showed synergistic effects on the inhibition of the growth of clindamycin-resistant P. acnes. It is predictable that the combination of antibiotics with rhapontigenin is helpful to treat acne caused by antibiotic-resistant P. acnes. The antibacterial activity of rhapontigenin was enhanced by biotransformation.
