An immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with a self-assembled protein G layer was developed for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. A self-assembled protein C layer on a gold (Au) surface was fabricated by adsorbing the mixture of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) and hexanethiol at various molar ratios and by activating chemical binding between free amine (-$NH_2$) of protein G and 11-(MUA) using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC) in series. The formation of a self-assembled protein G layer on an Au substrate and the binding of the antibody and antigen in series were confirmed by SPR spectroscopy. The surface morphology analyses of the self-assembled protein G layer on the Au substrate, monoclonal antibody (Mab) against E. coli O157:H7 which was immobilized on protein G, and bound E. coli O157:H7 extracts on Immobilized Mab against E. coii O157:H7 were performed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The detection limit of the SPR-based immunosensor for E. coli O157:H7 was found to be about $10^4$ cells/ml.

50가지 생약재를 95% 에탄올과 물추출하여 식중독 세균인 S. aureus와 E. coli O157:H7에 대한 항균활성을 조사하였다. 한천배지확산법에 따른 생육저해효과를 측한 결과, S. aureus 에 대하여 우슬>목단피>지실>황백, 건강, 민들레 순으로, E. coli O157:H7에 대하여 목단피＞우슬>건강>지실, 황백 순으로 활성을 나타내었다. MIC는 S. aureus에 대하여 우슬이 156.25 $\mu$g/mL, 목단피와 황백이 625 $\mu$g/mL로 나타났으며, E. coli O157:H7에 대하여 우슬과 목단피의 MIC는 각각 625, 312.5 $\mu$g/mL로 높은 항균력을 나타내었다. 가장 높은 활성을 보인 우슬과 목단피를 용매분획(hexane, CHC1$_3$, ethyl acetate, butanol)하여 한천배지 확산법에 의한 두 균에 대한 생장저해 효과를 측정하였다. 우슬은 ethyl acetate 분획물에서, 목단피는 CHC1$_3$과 ethyl acetate 분획물에서 각각 높은 활성을 나타내었다.

In this study, a total of 2,119 samples was taken from bovine feces and carcass from March 2002 to December 2003. And those were examined for the presence of enterohemorrhagic E coli O157:H7. The properties of the isolates were characterized for biochemical features, serotypes, virulence genes and antimicrobial susceptibility. Forty five strains($3.7\%$) of E coli O157:H7 were isolated from 1,208 fecal samples and were not detected in carcass using immunomagnetic separation technique and selective media. In multiplex PCR using stx1, stx2, eaeA and hlyA primers, the amplified bands at 180 bp, 255bp, 384bp and 534bp were observed, respectively. In antimicrobial susceptibility test, all isolates were susceptible to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and cefazolin. The isolates were most resistant to sulfisoxazole($24.4\%$), followed by streptomycin($22.2\%$), tetracycline($20.0\%$). Eight strains($17.8\%$) of 45 isolates showed the multi-resistant patterns with over 3 drugs.
