The sensitivity of various pathogenic bacteria(Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus 196E, Salmonella typhimurium) to the water extract of green tea was tested. Tryptic soy broth was inoculated with 10$\^$5/CPU/ml of pathogenic bacteria and incubated at 35$^{\circ}C$ for 30 hours. The extract was added at a final concentration of 0-2%(w/v) into culture broth at the mid or late exponential phase of bacteria. The growth of pathogenic bacteria was inhibited with increasing concentrations of the extract in culture broth and the late exponential phase cells were more resistant than the mid exponential phase cells. Cram positive bacteria(L. monocytogenes and S. aureus 196E) were more sensitive than Cram negative bacteria(E. coli O157:H7 and S. typhimurium). S. aureus had the highest sensitivity, followed by L monocytogenes, E. coli O157:H7. S. typhimurium was the most resistant to the water extract of green tea.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the antagonistic activities of Enterococcus faecalis strain PL9003 (PL9003) on Helicobacter pylori. This strain was isolated from infant feces and found to inhibit both the growth of H. pylori and its in vitro adherence to the human gastric cell line MKN-45. The binding of PL9003 to MKN-45 was observed under a light microscope after Cram staining and under a scanning electron microscope. When detected with an FITC-conjugate antibody, both viable and nonviable PL9003 were found to decrease the number of H. pylori bound to MKN-45. When detected by an enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay, about 70% of the H. pylori bound on MKN-45 disappeared with the four-1314 addition of viable or nonviable PL9003. The spent culture supernatant (SCS) of PL9003 also decreased the viability of H pylori even after neutralization and pepsin treatment. The above results suggest that PL9003 has a potential as a new probiotic for the stomach.

The bonding phenomenon and mechanism in the transient liquid phase bonding(TLP Bonding) of directionally solidified Ni base superalloy, GTD-111 was investigated. At the bonding temperature of 1403K, liquid insert metal was eliminated by isothermal solidification which was controlled by the diffusion of B and Si into the base metal and solids in the bonded interlayer grew epitaxially from mating base metal inward the insert metal. The number of grain boundaries formed at the bonded interlayer was corresponded with those of base metal. The liquation of grain boundary and dendrite boundary occurred at 1433K. At the bonding temperature of 1453K which is higher than liquation temperature of grain boundary, liquids of the Insert metal were connected with liquated grain boundaries and compositions in each region mixed mutually. In Joints held for various time at 1453t phases formed at liquated grain boundary far from the interface were similar to those of bonded interlayer. With prolonged holding time, liquid phases decreased gradually and liquids of continuous band shape divided many island shape. But liquid phases did not disappeared after holding for 7.2ks at 1453k. Isothermal solidification process at the bonding temperature which is higher than the liquation temperature of the grain boundary was controlled by diffusion of Ti to be result in liquation than B or Si. in insert metal.

Bioassay-directed chromatographic fractionation of a methylene chloride extract of Ailanthus altisshima indicated the presence of 20(S), 24(R), epoxy-25-hydroxydammarane-3-one (compound 1, ocotillone) which was isolated from this plant, for the first time. Antimicrobial activity of compound 1 was measured by inhibition of bacterial and fungal cells growth and by a hemolytic assay with human erythrocytes, respectively. The results revealed that compound 1 had potent antibacterial activity against Cram-negative bacteria, P. aeruginosa and S. typhimurium, that were without hemolytic activity, whereas it had weak antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria and fungi. These results demonstrated that the compound 1 has more antibacterial activity against 6ram-negative bacteria, which have no hemolytic activity, than Gram-positive bacteria and fungi. This is the first report on the biological activities of the compound 1.

Antimicrobial activity to the extracts of Perilla frutescens Briton var. acuta Kudo was investigated against various foodborne pathogenes or food poisioning microorganisms(Aspergillus flavus KCTC 6143 and KCTC 6961, Aspergillus niger ATCC 4695, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 15313, Staphylococcus aureus 196E ATCC 13565, Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC 43895, Salmonella typhimurium ATCC 13311 and Yersinia enterocolitica). The ethanol extract of Perilla frutescens Briton var. acuta Kudo was very stable over heat at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. In concentration of $1000\mu\textrm{g}$/mL into culture broth(TSB), the ethanol extract of Perilla frutescens Briton var. acuta Kudo showed the strongest antimicrobial activities against Listeria monocytogenes, followed by Staphylococcus aureus 196E, Salmonella typhimurium. Gram negative bacteria(Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella 쇼phimurium, Yersinia enterocolitica) were less sensitive than Cram positive bacteria but the growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Yersinia exterocolitica were inhibited with increasing concentrations of the extract in culture broth.

An antimicrobial compound was isolated from the MeOH extract of Catalpa ovata G.$D_{ON}$ fruits, and its structure was Identified as 4,9-dihydroxy-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-Uihydronaphtho[2,3-b]pyran-5,10-dione (HMNP). The antimicrobial activity of the Un was determined by measuring the dose-response inhibiton of microbial growth in liquid cultures and then compared with that of lapachol, a well known antimicrobial 1,4-naphthoquinone. The antimicrobial activity of the HMNP was more effective than that of lapachol over a wide range of test organisms. Gram-positive bacteria, yeast, and fungi ($IC_{50}$ $20-75\muM$) were found to be more sensitive to the HMNP than Cram-negative bacteria ($IC_{50}$ > $100\muM$). The HMNP also inhibited germination of spores of many fungi. The morphological defurmation of the fungal spores was induced by the treatment of HMNP, as illustrated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).

To develop a natural antibacterial agent for fish bacterial diseases, antibacterial activity, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and bactericidal effect of cinnamon bark extract were examined against fish pathogenic bacteria. The antimicrobial effect of the extract to the fish diet was also estimated, Cinnamon bark extract showed the broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against fish pathogenic bacteria, especially, it had strong activity against Streptococcus iniae, Edwardsiella tarda and Listonella anguillarum. Its MIC was $75.8\sim189.6{\mu}g/mL$ against Cram positive bacteria, and $75.8\sim113.8{\mu}g/mL$ against Gram negative bacteria in liquid medium, It was found to show stronger bactericidal action against Gram negative bacteria than Cram positive bacteria. According to increasing concentrations of the extract, it resulted in a proportional reduction of viable cell counts of both S. iniae and L. anguillarum. The former was not detected by addition of $189.6{\mu}g/mL$ after 12 hours incubation and the latter by addition of $151.6{\mu}g/mL$ after 24 hours incubation, respectively. It was reasonable that fish diet was soaked in cinnamon bark extract for ten minutes. The relationship formula between the weight of fish diet and the extract absorbed to fish diet was Y=7.2726X+4.5083 ($R^2=0.9998$). The fish diet soaked in the extract inhibited the growth of all strains used in this study. Its antibacterial activity was stable at the range from $10^{\circ}C\;to\;35^{\circ}C$ during the storage period of 28 days. When the diet soaked in the extract was incubated in liquid medium at $35^{\circ}C$, it inhibited the growth of microorganisms inhabited in the diet.
