Purpose : This study was conducted to investigate the antimicrobial effects of herb for removing dampness and promoting urination against vaginal microbes. Methods : Staphylococcus aureus. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA), Candida albicans and Gardnerella vaginalis were used for vaginitis-induced microbes. Lactobacillus gasseri, Streptococcus spp. and Escherichia coil HB101 were used for normal vaginal florae. And herbs for removing dampness and promoting urination(Dianthi herbs. Tokoro Rhizoma, Saururi Herbs, Pyrrosiae Folium, Artemisiae Iwayomogii Herba, Plantaginis Semen, Tetrapanacis Medulla, Polygoni Avicularis Herba, Malvae Semen, Akebiae Caulis, Kochiae Fructus, Lygodii Spora) were used. Antimicrobial activities were estimated by the change of optical densities and colony test in vitro. Results : Plantaginis Semen, Artemisiae Iwayomogii Herba and Lygodii Spora had the antimicrobial susceptibility and selective toxicity against MRSA and Gardnerella vaginalis. Polygoni Avicularis Herba had the antimicrobial susceptibility and selective toxicity against Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA and Gardnerella vaginalis. Malvae Semen and Kochiae Fructus had the antimicrobial susceptibility and selective toxicity against MRSA. Dianthi Herba had the antimicrobial susceptibility and selective toxicity against Gardnerella vaginalis. Conclusion : According to these results, we can suggest that Plantaginis Semen, Artemisiae Iwayomogii Herba, Lygodii Spora, Polygoni Avicularis Herba, Malvae Semen, Kochiae Fructus and Dianthi Herba would be available to the antimicrobial agent for vaginitis-induced microbe in vitro.

국내시판 김치로부터 분리한 probiotics의 병원생 미생물에 대한 억제효과와 항균제 내성을 조사하기 위해 35종의 국내시판 김치에서 총 140주의 probiotics를 분리하였으며, 16S rRNA 염기서열 분석을 통해 L. plantarum이 53주(37.9%), E. faecium 27주(19.3%) 그리고 L. rhamnosus 7주(5.0%) 순으로 동정되었고, 12종(species)의 다양한 병원성 미생물 즉 S. Typhi, S. Enteritidis, E. coli O157:H7, S. flexneri, NAG Vibrio, L. monocytogenesis, Y. enterocolitica, S. aureus, S. pyogenes, G. vaginalis, C. albicans, P. acne에 대한 전체적인 항균성은 69주(49.3%)이었으며, 균종별로 살펴보면 L. plantarum 75.5%, L. sakei 66.7%, E. faecium 40.7%, 그리고 L. rhamnosus 28.6% 순이었다. 또한 디스크 확산법에 의한 18종의 다양한 계열의 항균제에 대한 내성시험 결과 nalidixic acid가 98.6%의 내성을, S 83.6%, gentamicin 75.7%, vancomycin 73.6%, norfloxacin 72.1%, 그리고 ciprofloxacin 67.9% 순으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 실험에서 다양한 항균활성과 광범위한 항생제 내성을 지닌 L. plantarum, L. sakei, 그리고 E. faecium 균주가 장기 항생제 치료환자에 대한 유용한 설사 치료용 및 Candida 속이 야기하는 여성질염 치료제로서의 사용이 유용할 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives This study aimed to investigate therapeutic effect of Korean Medicine Steam Therapy (KMST) for leukorrhea patients. Methods From December 1st 2013 to Nov 31st 2014, 16 leukorrhea outpatients treated with KMST filled out questionnaire before and after treatments. The questionnaire was composed of 8 question items such as sleep, appetite & digestion, urination, defecation, emotion, cold hypersensitivity, menstrual pain, leukorrhea and patients were told to evaluate their symptoms as NRS score. We analyzed mean NRS score of each question item before and after KMST by using Wilcoxon's signed rank test of SPSS ver. 19. Results Mean age of participants was 40.8±13.0 years and mean value of treatment numbers per person was 3.8±1.8 times. 43.75% (n=7) of the patients had history of vaginitis caused by gardnella vaginalis, ureaplasma urealyticum or candida albicans. All patients were treated with acupuncture, moxibustion and Korean medicine. In addition, there was no side effect reported by participants. NRS score of quantity, odor of leukorrhea, perineal unpleasant sensation such as itching, dryness, burning sensation remarkably decreased (p<0.01, p<0.05, p<0.01 each). NRS score of symptoms including sleep, urination, cold hypersensitivity, menstrual pain also remarkably decreased (p<0.05). Conclusions Symptoms of leukorrhea patients including sleep, urination, cold hypersensitivity, menstrual pain, leukorrhea showed significant decrease after treated with concurrent KMST.
