소나무과 식물(곰솔, 리기다소나무 및 소나무)이 지닌 monoterpene의 표준시약 12가지를 4가지 농도별로 Escherichia coli와 Aspergillus nidulans에 처리하여 성장 저해 효과를 조사하였다. E. coli의 성장 저해 효과가 있는 것들은 (R)(-)carvone, (S)(+)carvone, (1R)(-)fenchone, (-)menthone, α-pinene, (1S)(-)verbenone 그리고 (+)β-pinene이었고, 이들 중에서 가장 높은 성장 저해 효과를 보이는 것은 (+)β-pinene이었다. 그리고 A. nidulans에 성장 저해 효과를 보이는 것들은 (R)(-)carvone, (S)(+)carvone, (+)β-pinene, geranyl-acetate, α-pinene 그리고 (1S)(-)verbenone이었다. 본 실험에서 A. nidulans에 성 장 저해 효과를 나타내는 monoterpene은 대부분 E. coli에서도 저해효과를 보이는데, 다만 geranyl-acetate는 E. coli에서는 전혀 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 (1R)(-)fenchone과 (-)menthone은 E. coli의 성장 억제를 하는 반면. A. nidulans의 성장에는 영향이 없었다. 특히 주목할 만한 점은 myrcene, sabinene, bornyl acetate 그리고 limonene의 경우 두 종 모두에서 성장 저해 효과가 전혀 나타나지 않았다.

목적: 요로감염은 소아에서 흔한 세균 감염이며, Escherichia coli가 주요 원인균이다. 본 연구는 우리나라에서 소아 요로감염을 일으키는 E. coli의 계통 분류와 독성인자를 분석하고자 하였다. 방법: 2010년 10월부터 2013년 4월까지 요로감염으로 입원한 33명의 소아 환자로부터 검출된 E. coli균주를 대상으로 하였다. 중합효소연쇄반응을 통해 E. coli의 계통 분류 및 5가지 독성인자(fimH, sfa, papA, hylA, and cnf1)를 조사하였다. E. coli의 분자유전학적 특징을 환자의 임상적 진단과 동반된 방광요관 역류에 따라 분석하였다. 결과: 대부분의 요로병원성 E. coli 는 계통 분류에서 B2군(84.8%)에 속했으며, 나머지는 모두 D군(15.2%)에 해당되었다. 독성인자는 fimH (100%), sfa (100%), hylA (63.6%), cnfI (63.6%), 그리고 papA (36.4%)의 분포를 보였다. 임상 진단에 따른 계통 분류에서 급성 신우신염의 경우 B2군이 92.3%, D군이 7.7%를 나타냈으며, 방광염에서는 B2군에서 57.1%, D2군은 42.9%였다. 독성인자는 양 군에서 비슷하게 분포하였다. 급성 신우신염에서 방광요관 역류의 유무에 따른 계통 분류의 분포에는 차이가 없었으나, 독성인자의 경우 papA 유전자가 방광요관 역류가 동반되지 않은 군에서보다 방광요관 역류 군에서 적게 나타났다(43.8% vs. 20.0%, P=0.399). 결론: 본 연구는 국내 소아 요로감염의 원인 E. coli 균주의 분자유전학적 역학 자료를 제시하였으며, 이 결과는 향후 소아 요로감염의 발생 기전을 이해하는 데 기초가 될 것으로 생각된다.

This study aimed to inhibit Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 artificially contaminated in fresh meat using bacteriophage. Among 14 bacteriophages, the highly lytic bacteriophage BPECO19 strain was selected to inhibit E. coli O157:H7 in artificially contaminated meat samples. Bacteriophage BPECO19 significantly reduced E. coli O157:H7 bacterial load in vitro in a multiplicity of infection (MOI)-dependent manner. E. coli O157:H7 was completely inhibited only in 10 min in vitro by the treatment of 10,000 MOI BPECO19. The treatment of BPECO19 at 100,000 MOI completely reduced 5 Log CFU/cm² E. coli O157:H7 bacterial load in beef and pork at 4 and 8h, respectively. In chicken meat, a 4.65 log reduction of E. coli O157:H7 was observed at 4 h by 100,000 MOI. The treatment of single bacteriophage BPECO19 was an effective method to control E. coli O157:H7 in meat samples.

The efficacy of citric acid-aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) treatment of radish seeds artificially contaminated with Escherichia coli was studied. Radish seeds were inoculated with E. coli. Following inoculation, samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ and soaked in citric acid or aqueous $ClO_2$ for 10 min. The treatment of radish seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ solution caused a 1.5 log CFU/g reduction in the population of E. coli. Compared to the aqueous $ClO_2$ treatment, soaking radish seeds in 2.0% citric acid solution for 10 min was more effective in reducing E. coli populations on radish seeds. The efficacy of spray application of chlorine (100 ppm) or 0.5% citric acid to eliminate E. coli during the germination and growth of radish was investigated. Radish seed inoculated with E. coli was treated for the duration of the growth period. Although it resulted in a decrease in the E. coli population, the spray application of 100 ppm chlorine during the growth period was not significantly effective. In contrast, the combined treatment of seeds using 200 ppm aqueous $ClO_2$ and treatment of sprouts with 0.5% citric acid solution during sprout growth was hardly effective in eliminating E. coli.

Escherichia coli are the predominant facultative bacteria found in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans. Some strains of E. coli that acquire virulence factors and cause foodborne and waterborne diseases in humans are called pathogenic E. coli and can be divided into five pathotypes according to the virulence mechanism: EAEC, EHEC, EIEC, EPEC, and ETEC. Although selective media have been developed to detect E. coli, distinguishing pathogenic strains from non-pathogenic ones is difficult because of their similar biochemical properties. Therefore, it is very important to find a new and effective diagnostic method to identify pathogenic E. coli. With recent advances in molecular biology and whole genome sequencing, the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is increasing rapidly. In this review paper, we provide an overview of pathogenic E. coli and present a review on PCR detection methods that can be used to diagnose pathogenic E. coli. In addition, the possibility of real-time PCR incorporating IAC is introduced. Consequently, this review paper will contribute to solving the current challenges related to the detection of pathogenic E. coli.

The present study was conducted to investigate the biochemical characteristics and anti-biotic resistance of Escherichia coli(E. coli) isolated from piglets with diarrhea in Kyongbuk province during the Period from February to November 1991. 368 E. coli strains were isolated from 382 piglets with diarrhea and the biochemical and cultural reaction were compared with the classification criteria of Edwards and Ewing. Tetracycline and sulfadimethoxine were found to be highly ineffective at in vitro inhibition of the E. coli of piglets origin. The majority of E. coli were susceptible to amikacin, chloramphenicol and gentamicine. 89 (89.0%) of 100 strains of E. coil were resistant to one or more drugs. The organisms resistant to 20 or 3 drugs were 54(60.6%) of 89 strains, whereas 16(17.9%) strains were found to be resistant to one drug. 55(61.8%) out of 89 drug resistance strains carried R factors($R^+$) which were transfer-able to the recipients by conjugation.
