  • The objectives of this research were to 1) isolate and identify thermophilic bacteria for food waste treatment; 2) investigate the capability of food waste treatment using Bacillus species; and 3) develop air-dried Bacillus starters for food waste treatment. Five Bacillus species were isolated from food wastes and identified as Bacillus licheniformis (B. licheniformis) G1, Bacillus circulans C2, Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) E1, Bacillus vanillea F1, and Bacillus atrophaeus G2 based on 16S rDNA sequencing. Each identified Bacillus and the mixture of Bacillus species were cultivated in the standard food waste at $45^{\circ}C$ for 8 d. Changes in cell count, solid contents, and pH of the food waste were monitored during cultivation. Air-dried Bacillus cell powders were prepared using wheat flour and lactomil as excipients, and the cell count and survival rate were determined. The cell count of B. licheniformis G1 exhibited the highest number among the tested Bacillus (${\sim}10^8CFU/mL$). The greatest reduction in solid contents of food waste was achieved by B. subtilis E1 (22.6%). The mixture of B. licheniformis G1 and B. subtilis E1 exhibited a synergistic effect on the reduction of solid contents. Lactomil was determined as better excipient than wheat flour based on the greatest survival rate of 95%.

  • Bacillus species were observed and quantified by molecular approaches, using the 16S rDNA primers/probes, in a wastewater treatment plant designed for the purpose of stimulating the growth of Bacillus species. The plant has been operating as a test plant since 1997 in the city of Ina, Japan, with excellent treatment performance. Observations by in situ hybridization, using Bacillus-specific probes, indicated that Bacillus strains were inhabited in the plant and their num­bers decreased during the treatment process. Similar results were obtained from a quantitative PCR analysis using a Bacillus-specific primer set, and the amount of DNA originating from various Bacillus species was maximally $1.91%\$ of the total DNA in the wastewater treatment tank. Clone library analysis using the Bacillus-specific primers suggested that, while the population was no­ticeably increased, the phylogenetic diversity of the increasing Bacillus species was very low.

  • In this study we analyzed the dynamic changes in microbiota composition during kochujang fermentation at $30^{\circ}C$. During fermentation, the viable cell counts slowly increased and reached $3.2{\times}10^7$ for aerobic bacteria, $8.3{\times}10^3$ for yeast, and $1.4{\times}10^3$ CFU/mL for fungi after 60 days. Bacilli were found to be the most dominant microorganisms throughout the fermentation process. Using the culture dependent method Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis, and Bacillus amyloquefaciens were found to be the main species during the early stages of fermentation; however, Bacillus pumilus and Bacillus stearothermophilus became the most dominant species during the late stage of fermentation. In contrast, when the polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) method was used Bacillus ehimensis was found to be the dominant species during the early stage of fermentation and Bacillus megaterium, B. pumilus, B. subtilis, and B. licheniformis were dominant in the ate stages. These results indicate various other Bacillus species rather than just B. subtilis and B. licheniformis might be involved in the fermentation of kochujang.

  • 탄저균의 분자적 다양성 분석은 다양한 DNA표지의 부족으로 쉬운 일이 아니어서, 본 연구에서는 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR을 이용하여 Bacillus 속으로부터 탄저균을 구별할 수 있는 새로운 DNA 표지를 개발하고자 하였다. RAPD-PCR을 이용한 분석은 다양한 Bacillus 종으로부터 탄저균을 동정할 수 있었으며, 아울러 Bacillus 종 사이에서 확실한 유전적인 변이를 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 분석은 간단, 신속하고, 그리고 정확하게 탄저균을 진단하는데 활용할 수 있다고 본다.

  • 식물과 그 식물의 근권미생물과의 협력관계는 이미 오래전부터 관심을 받아왔고 지구 기후변화에 따라 식물과 그 근권미생물의 생태 및 지구환경에 대한 적응성은 막대한 지장을 받을 것으로 생각되어 왔다. 따라서 지구온난화에 따라 식물뿌리에 서식하는 근권미생물인 토양미 생물의 우점종이 어떻게 변화하는지에 대해 규명하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 우선 한국 식물생태계의 대표종인 소나무 (A), 잣나무 (B), 상수리나무 (C), 오리나무 (D) 를 선발하여 각각 실온인 $27^{\circ}C$$29^{\circ}C$(실온$+2^{\circ}C$), $31^{\circ}C$(실온$+4^{\circ}C$), $33^{\circ}C$(실온$+6^{\circ}C$)에서 1년 이상 성장시킨 후 이들의 뿌리토양을 무균적으로 채취하여 미생물 screening법과 colony counting을 통하여 각각의 군에서 우점종을 선별한 뒤 16S rRNA 분석에 의해 이들 각각의 우점종을 동정하였다. 그 결과 소나무 $27^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus와 Enterobacter sp. CCBAU 15492, 소나무 $29^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. 210_64와 Enterobacter sp. CCBAU 15492, 소나무 $31^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. 210_64와 Enterobacter ludwigii, 소나무 $33^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. 210_64와 Enterobacter sp. CCBAU 15492, Bacillus marisflavistrain DS6이 검출되었고, 잣나무 $27^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus Q1, Pseudomonas sp. PR1-3, Arthrobacter woluwensisstrain CBU05/5295, 잣나무 $29^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. G3, Pseudomonas sp. PR1-3, Bacillus sp. 210_24, 잣나무 $31^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus Q1, Pseudomonas sp. PR1-3, 잣나무 $33^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus coagulans strain, Pseudomo-Dominant-species Change of Soil Microbes 59 nas sp. PR1-3, Chryseobacterium sp. COLI2, 상수리나무 $27^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus strain B1, Pseudomonas putida strain W30, Arthrobacter woluwensis strain CBU05/5295, 상수리나무 $29^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus strain CICC10185, Pseudomonas putida strain W30, 상수리나무 $31^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus strain CG-T2, Pseudomonas sp. W15Feb9B, 상수리나무 $33^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. CCBAU 51490, Arthrobacter woluwensis strain CBU05/5295, 오리나무 $27^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. B18, Pseudomonas sp. PD 16, Enterobacter sp. CCBAU 15492, 오리나무 $29^{\circ}C$에서는 Rhodococcus erythropolis PR4, 오리나무 $31^{\circ}C$에서는 Enterobacter cloacae, Pseudomonas sp. PD 16, 오리나무 $33^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus subtilis strain SYH15, Pseudomonas sp. PD16을 우점종으로 동정하였다. 이 중 소나무는 $33^{\circ}C$에서 Bacillus marisflavi strain DS6가 $27{\sim}31^{\circ}C$에서는 발견되지 않다가 온도가 상승함에 따라 출현한 새로운 우점종으로 나타났고 잣나무에서는 $27^{\circ}C$에서 Bacillus cereus Q1, $29^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus sp. G3, $31^{\circ}C$에서는 Bacillus cereus Q1 등의 Bacillus속이 주요 우점종으로 나타났으나 온도가 가장 많이 상승한 $33^{\circ}C$에서는 Chryseobacterium sp. COLI2으로 우점종이 변한 것을 확인하였다. 본 실험은 차후 더 다양한 온도에서의 토양미생물 우점종 변화에 대한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 사료되며 이들 연구결과들이 연계되어 지구온난화와 미생물의 관계, 그리고 새롭게 출현한 토양미생물과 식물간의 관계를 규명하는데 도움이 되는 데이터가 도출 될 것으로 기대된다.

  • Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)-based pathogen identification relies on the ribosomal protein spectra provided in the proprietary database. Although these mass spectra can discern various pathogens at species level, the spectra-based method still has limitations in identifying closely-related microbial species. In this study, to overcome the limits of the current MALDI-TOF MS identification method using ribosomal protein spectra, we applied MALDI-TOF MS of low-mass profiling to the identification of two genetically related Bacillus species, the food-borne pathogen Bacillus cereus, and the insect pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis. The mass spectra of small molecules from 17 type strains of two bacilli were compared to the morphological, biochemical, and genetic identification methods of pathogens. The specific mass peaks in the low-mass range (m/z 500-3,000) successfully identified various closely-related strains belonging to these two reference species. The intensity profiles of the MALDI-TOF mass spectra clearly revealed the differences between the two genetically-related species at strain level. We suggest that small molecules with low molecular weight, 714.2 and 906.5 m/z can be potential mass biomarkers used for reliable identification of B. cereus and B. thuringiensis.

  • Twenty isolates of Bacillus species obtained from livestock manure composts and cotton-waste composts were tested for their antagonistic effects in vitro against three green mold pathogens of mushrooms (Trichoderma harzianum, T. koningii, and T. viridescens). However, there exists a possibility Bacillus species may have antagonistic effects against mushrooms themselves, and thus the same 20 isolates were tested in vitro against three species of mushrooms (Flammulina velutipes, Lentinus edodes, and Pleurotus ostreatus). Of the 20 Bacillus species isolates tested, two inhibited mycelial growth of T. harzianum, seven that of T. koningii, and eight that of T. viridescens. Importantly, the bacterial isolates M27 and RM29 strongly inhibited mycelial growth of all the Trichoderma spp. isolates tested. The isolate M27 was subsequently identified as the most effective in inhibiting mycelial growth of all the Trichoderma species. Interesting results of the effect Bacillus isolates had upon the mushroom species followed. It was found that most Bacillus isolates except 5T33 at least somewhat inhibited mycelial growth of the three mushroom species or some of the mushrooms. Furhermore, the antagonistic effects of the bacterial isolates against the three species of mushrooms varied depending on the mushroom species, suggesting a role for mushroom type in the mechanism of inhibition. The bacterial isolates M27 and RM29 were identified as having the most antagonistic activity, inhibiting mycelial growth of all the Trichoderma spp. as well as mycelial growth of the three species of mushrooms. These results suggest that the bacterial isolates and their antagonistic effects on green mold pathogens should be further studied for their practical use for biological control of green mold in the growing room of the mushrooms.
