The efficient synthesis of a tetrasaccharide, the suitably protected form of the repeat unit, →2)-α-D-Manp-(1→2)-β-D-Manp-(1→3)-α-D-GlcpNAc-(1→6)-α-D-Manp-(1→, of the O-antigen polysaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide from E. coli O77 has been accomplished. Glycosylation reactions for the coupling of four monosaccharide building blocks of the tetrasaccharide were carried out employing the CB glycoside method, the mannosyl 4-pentenoate/PhSeOTf method, and the glycosyl trichloroacetimidate method with complete stereoselectivities in excellent yields.

The role of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli(EPEC) was evaluated in a group of children with endemic diarrhea admitted to Hanyang University Hospital in Seoul, Korea. EPEC was detected in fecal samples of 23% of 100 cases and 4.5% of 44 concurrent control children. The most commonly isolated EPBC strains were serogroups $O_{18a}O_{18c}:K_{77},\;O_{86a}:K_{61},\;O_{119}:K_{69},\;and\;O_{128}:K_{70}$. On testing for enterotoxin production, 6(26%) strains were isolated from 17% of the 100 diarrheal children and in 4.5% of the 44 well controls(P<0.05). Our study supports the concept that EPEC may be an important cause of endemic diarrheas in Korea.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of antibacterial activity of Tibetan mushroom exopolysaccharide against foodborne pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus 305, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC19114, Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC42894 and Escherichia coli O55. The yield of exopolysaccharide isolated from Tibetan mushroom culture was 620 mg/L. The antibacterial activity of exopolysaccharide against foodborne pathogenic bacteria exhibited 15 mm and 12 mm clear zone against S. aureus 305 and L. monocytogenes ATCC 19114, respectively. However, no clear zone was observed against E. coli O157:H7 ATCC 42894 and E. coli O55. In conclusion, exopolysaccharide isolated from Tibetan mushroom culture have the antibacterial activity only against Gram-positive foodborne pathogenic bacteria.

Antimicrobial drugs are widely used in poultry industry as growth promoters or to control infectious diseases. However, this practice is reported to have caused high resistance to antimicrobial drugs in normal chicken flora and pathogens. Antimicrobial resistance to Escherichia coli (E. coli) from chicken has been mainly reported in normal flora, but rare in pathogenic organism in Korea, recently. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate prevalence of antimicrobials resistance, transfer of R plasmid, and association between antimicrobial drug resistance and O serotype of 203 pathogenic E. coli from poultry in Korea during the period from April 2003 to December 2005. These isolates showed a high resistance to tetracycline (Tc, 93.6%), nalidixic acid (Na, 92.6%), streptomycin (Sm, 81.8%), ampicillin (Ap, 77.3%), ciprofloxacin (Ci, 70.9%), sulfisoxazole (Su, 66.5%), and trimethoprim (Tp, 58.1%). Two hundred-one (99.0%) of the isolates were resistant to one or more drugs. They showed 57 different resistant patterns, and the most prevalent resistant pattern among them was Tc, Sin, Su, Ap, Tp, Ci, Na. Sixty-eight (33.8%) of the isolates transferred all or a part of their antimicrobial resistant pattern to the recipient strain by R plasmid. The most common antimicrobial resistant pattern was Tc, Sm, Su, Ap, Tp, Ci, Na in serotype O78, O88 and O15, respectively. These results exhibit high individual and multiple resistance to antimicrobials of pathogenic E. coli from poultry in Korea. They also suggest the needs for surveillance to monitor antimicrobial resistance in pathogenic bacteria that can be potentially transmitted to humans from food animals and to regulate the abuse of antimicrobials on food-producing animals in Korea.

Objectives : Two related cases of Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome (HUS) were reported to the Korea National Institute of Health in May, 2001. Shiga toxin 2 genes were detected in both stool samples. We suspected an enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infection as the cause of the HUS, and conducted an investigation to find the source of the infection and its route of transmission. Methods : We peformed case investigations on these two related HUS cases, and obtained interviews and rectal swabs form the family members and other close contacts. Additionally, we peformed rectal swabs on the cattle raised by the household of the index patient. Results : We found a 20 month old index patient and a 6 year-old cousin had developed HUS, where there had been a 2 day history of contact with the index, and bacteriological examinations for these two patients revealed, indistinguishably, the same E. coli O171. The grandmother of the index patient was found to be asymptomatic, but E. coli O26 was isolated. We also found a probable case in the mother of the cousin. She reported a history of contact with the index, and developed bloody diarrhea of 3 days duration. The test results for the cattle revealed E. coli O26 in one cow, and E. coli O26 and O55 in another. E. coli O26, which was isolated in both cows and the grandmother of the index, were indistinguishably the same. Conclusions : We found that the E. coli O26 in the grandmother had originated from the cows, and that the E. coli O171 found in the index patient had been transmitted to the cousin through person-to-person contact.

This study was conducted to investigate O group serotyping, antimicrobial drug resistance and distribution of extended spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase of 203 Escherichia coli(E. coli) isolated from poultry in Korea during the period from April in 2003 to December 2005. The serogroup of 69.4% of isolates was determinated ; O 78(32.5%), O88(7.9%). O15(6.9%) and O141(6.4%) were the most common. These E. coli isolates showed resistance to nalidixic acid(92.6%), streptomycin(81.8%), ampicillin(77.3%), ciprofloxacin(70.9%), sulfisoxazole(66.5%) and trimethoprim(58.1%), respectively. The bla CTX$_{-M-3\;like}$(2 strains) and bla$\;_{CMY-2}$(2 strains) genes producing extended spectrum ${\beta}$ - lactamase(ESBL) were detected in four wild strains resistant to the third generation cephalosporin, respectively. The presence of the ESBL genes was confirmed in all transconjugants by PCR analysis with primers encoding CTX-M-3 like types or CMY-2.

본 연구는 Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Typhimurium 그리고 Listeria monocytogenes에 대하여 천연항균제와 유기산을 이용한 분무 살균제 (aerosol sanitizer)의 살균효과를 검토하였다. 실제 가공공장의 주요 기계나 기구로 사용하는 stainless steel을 coupon으로 이용하여 인위적으로 접종한 식중독 미생물을 model cabinet에서 5분 동안 자몽종자추출물(grapefruit seed extract), acetic acid, citric acid 그리고 lactic acid로 처리 하였다. 3가지 식중독 미생물의 수는 GEF와 유기산 단독 처리시 0.34-3.77log의 균 감소를 나타내었고, 병행 처리시 1.72-3.89 log의 균 감소를 나타내었고 GEF, 유기산 그리고 알코올을 병행 처리시 1.46-5.05 log의 균 감소효과를 나타냈다. 세 종류의 유기산 중 항균력이 가장 높은 것으로 측정된 lactic acid를 이용하여 scale-up 모델에서 10분 동안 처리 한 결과는 E. coli O157:H7, S. Typhimurium 그리고 L. monocytogenes는 각각 3.42, 2.72, 2.30log의 균 감소를 나타내었다. 따라서 천연항균제와 유기산을 이용한 분무 살균제는 안전한 식품에 대한 소비자의 수요를 충족시키고, 환경 위생 방법으로 사용할 수 있다고 생각되었다.

${\beta}-Lactamase$ stability, chemotherapeutic activity, and pharmacokinetics of 7-[(Z)-2-(2-aminothiazole-4-yl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-[4-(2-pyridyl)piperazinyl]thiocarbonylthiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid(CEN1), 7-[(Z)-2-(2-aminothiazole-4-yl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-[4-(2-pyrimidyl)piperazinyl]thiocarbonylthiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid(CEN2), pivaloyloxymethyl-7-[(Z)-2-(2-aminothizaole-4-yl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-[4-(2-pyridyl)piperazinyl]thiocarbonyl-thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate(CEN1P), and pivaloyloxymethyl-7-{(Z)--2-(2-aminothizaole-4-yl)-2-methoxyiminoacetamido]-3-[4-(2-pyridyl)piperazinyl]thiocarbonyl-thiomethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate(CEN2P) were examined. CEN1, CEN2, CEN1P, and CEN2P were very stable to the ${\beta}-lactamase$ obtained from three strains(Enterobacter cloacae P99, Escherichia coli TEM, and Citrobacter freundii). Chemotherapeutic activities$(ED_{50})$ of CEN2 and CEN2P against experimental systemic infections due to Streptococcus pyogenes 77A and Escherichia coli 078 were superior to those of CEN1 and CEN1P, respectively. The $ED_{50}$ values of CEN1, CEN2 were 5.82 mg/kg, 0.89 mg/kg(s.c., S. pyogenes 77A) while those of CEN1P, CEN2P were 14.56mg/kg, 6.40mg/kg(p.o., S. pyogenes 77A), respectively. The pharmacokinetics of CEN1, CEN2, CEN1P, and CEN2P were investigated in mice and rats. In mice, peak blood levels of $1.25\;{\mu}g/ml$ were recorded within 20 min after oral administration of a single dose equivalent to 40 mg/kg CEN1P. Cmax of CEN1P was much higher than that of CEN1 in mice and rats. Oral absorption of CEN2P was much higher than that of CEN2.
