전국에서 채취한 사일리지 및 우분 시료로부터 사일리지 첨가제로 사용하기 위한 유산균을 순수 분리하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. MRS 배지에서 성장 속도를 기반으로 16개의 유산균 균주를 순수 분리하였으며 이들은 16S rRNA, RNA polymerase alpha subunit, 60-kDa heat shock protein, phenylalanyl-tRNA synthase alpha subunit 유전자 염기서열에 기반하여 Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, Weissella 속으로 동정되었다. 16균주 중 L. plantarum과 유전적으로 높은 유사도를 보인 균주들은 MRS 배지와 쌀보리 추출배지에서 가장 빠른 성장 및 pH 저하를 나타냈으며 이용 가능한 당 종류 및 생장 가능한 pH, 온도, 염분범위가 상대적으로 넓었다. 또한 이 균주들은 PCR 검사 결과 바이오제닉 아민 생성을 위한 유전자가 없었으며 그 MRS 배지 배양액은 사일리지 부패균에 대한 저해 효과가 상대적으로 큰 것으로 나타나 이 균주들이 우수한 사일리지 첨가제로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 분리된 모든 유산균들의 쌀보리 추출배지 배양액은 사일리지 부패균의 성장에 큰 영향을 미치지 않거나 오히려 촉진시켰으며 선발된 유산균들을 사일리지 제조에 사용하기 위하여 그 원인 구명과 대책마련이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria were isolated from kimchi. One isolate producing the most efficient bacteriocin was identified and named Lactococcus lactis B2, based on the biochemical properties and 16S rDNA sequences. The B2 bacteriocin inhibited many different Gram positive bacteria including Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Enterococcus, Streptococcus, and Staphylococcus, but did not inhibit Gram-negative bacteria. The bacteriocin was maximally produced at temperatures between $25^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ and at the initial pH of 7.0. Ninety $\%$ of the activity remained after 10 min of heat treatment at $121^{\circ}C,\;and\;100\%$, after 1 h exposure to organic solvents. The bacteriocin was purified from culture supernatant by ammonium sulfate precipitation, CM Sepharose column chromatography, ultrafiltration, and finally, by reverse-phase HPLC. A 1.58-kb fragment was amplified from B2 chromosome by using a primer set designed from the published nisA sequence. Sequencing result showed that the fragment contained the whole nisZ and 5' portion of nisB, whose gene product was involved in postmodification of nisin. The upstream sequence, however, was completely different from those of reported nisin genes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate lactic acid bacteria with antioxidative and probiotic activities isolated from Korean healthy infant feces and kimchi. Isolates A1, A2, S1, S2, and S3 were assigned to Lactobacillus sp. and isolates A3, A4, E1, E2, E3, and E4 were assigned to Leuconostoc sp. on the basis of their physiological properties and 16S ribosomal DNA sequence analysis. Most strains were confirmed as safe bioresources through nonhemolytic activities and non-production of harmful enzymes such as β-glucosidase, β-glucuronidase and tryptophanase. The 11 isolates showed different resistance to acid and bile acids. In addition, they exhibited antibacterial activity against foodborne bacteria, especially Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Escherichia coli. Furthermore, all strains showed significantly high levels of hydrophobicity. The antioxidant effects of culture filtrates of the 11 strains included 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging capacity, 2.2'-azino-bis (2-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation scavenging activity, and superoxide dismutase activity. The results revealed that most of the culture filtrates have effective scavenging activity for DPPH and ABTS radicals. All strains appeared to have effective superoxide dismutase activity. In conclusion, the isolated strains A1, A3, S1, and S3 have significant probiotic activities applicable to the development of functional foods and health-related products. These strains might also contribute to preventing and controlling several diseases associated with oxidative stress, when used as probiotics.

Previous studies have suggested that microbial fermentation is an attractive process to develop food products using seaweed. The objective of this study was to isolate and characterize lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which are used as starters for seaweed fermentation. The isolation of LAB strains was conducted using kelp Saccharina japonica kimchi, a well-known fermented seaweed in southeastern Korea. Based on the assay of acid tolerance, bile tolerance and antioxidant activity, 15 strains of LAB were selected for further study. The LABs exhibited cholesterol lowering activity in the range of 15.50 to 94.77%. Among the LABs suitable for food production, Lactobacillus plantarum D-11 had the highest antioxidant and cholesterol lowering activities. This probiotic strain will be applied to develop various kelp fermentation products.

A number of different sources, such as composts, leachates, and pig feces samples, were collected from different pig farms in Korea, and several microorganisms were screened for their ability to deodorize the malodorous gases. Consequently, a novel malodorous gases-deodorizing bacterial strain, KJ-108. was isolated, because it was highly abundant in nitrate-supplemented minimal medium ($MM-NO_3^-$) under anaerobic culture conditions. Airtight crimp-sealed serum bottles containing $MM-NO_3^-$ , medium were inoculated with KJ-108. Nitrate concentration was decreased rapidly after 20 h of incubation, and incubation was carried out until nitrite production reached almost zero. Taxonomic identification, including 16S rDNA base sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, indicated that the isolate had $100\%$ homology in its 165 rDNA base sequence with Lactobacillus pentosus. Among the volatile fatty acids, acetic acid contained in large amounts in fresh piggery slurry was decreased by about $40\%$ after 50 h incubation with strain KJ-108. n-Butyric acid, n-valeric acid, and isovaleric acid were gradually decreased, and isobutyric acid and capronic acid were dramatically eliminated at theinitial period with the treatment. Moreover, NH, removal efficiency reached a maximum of $98.5\%$ after 50 h of incubation, but the concentration of $H_2S$ was not changed.

우리 고유의 전통 발효 음식인 김치로부터 bacteriocin 생성능이 우수한 Lactococcus sp. J-105균주를 분리하였다. Lactococcus sp. J-105의 생육 및 bacteriocin 생성에 대한 최적 조건을 검토한 결과 bacteriocin 생성은 대수 증식기 말기에서 정지기 초기에 가장 많이 생성되었다. Lactococcus sp. J-105의 생육 및 bacteriocin 생성 최적 탄소원 및 질소원은 각각 maltose와 polypeptone이었다. 균의 생육 및 bacteriocin 생성 최적 온도는 $25^{\circ}C$였으며 생육 최적 pH는 pH 8 부근이었다. bacteriocin 생성 또한 pH 8에서 최고를 나타내었다. 한편 NaCl은 오히려 균체 증식과 bac-tericoin 생성을 저해하였다. Lactococcus sp. J-105가 생산하는 bacteriocin의 pH 및 열에 대한 안정성을 검토한 결과 pH 2~4, $121^{\circ}C$ 15분에서 각각 안정하였다. 또한 J-105의 항균 spectrum을 검토한 결과 Lactobacillus sp. Leuconostoc s 그리고 Bacillus subtilis 등의 Gram 양성균에 대해서 항균활성 나타내었으며 Gram 음성균인 Acetobacter acid에 대해서도 항균 활성을 나타내었으나 E. coli에 대해서는 항균 활성을 나타내지 않았다. 본 bacteriocin은 trypsin, protease와 같은 peptide 분해효소에 대해서는 안정한 반면, pepsin에 의해서는 활성이 상실되는 특이한 성질을 나타내었다

Ezine cheese is a non-starter and long-ripened cheese produced in the Mount of Ida region of Canakkale, Turkey, with a protected designation of origin status. Non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) have a substantial effect on the quality and final sensorial characteristics of long-ripened cheeses. The dominance of NSLAB can be attributed to their high tolerance to the hostile environment in cheese during ripening relative to many other microbial groups and to its ability to inhibit undesired microorganisms. These qualities promote the microbiological stability of long-ripened cheeses. In this study, 144 samples were collected from three dairies during the ripening period of Ezine cheese. Physicochemical composition and NSLAB identification analyses were performed using both conventional and molecular methods. According to the results of a 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, 13 different species belonging to seven genera were identified. Enterococcus faecium (38.42%) and E. faecalis (18.94%) were dominant species during the cheese manufacturing process, surviving 12 months of ripening together with Lactobacillus paracasei (13.68%) and Lb. plantarum (11.05%). The results indicate that NSLAB contributes to the microbiological stability of Ezine cheese over 12 months of ripening. The isolation of NSLAB with antimicrobial activity, potential bacteriocin producers, yielded defined collections of natural NSLAB isolates from Ezine cheese that can be used to generate specific starter cultures for the production of Ezine cheese (PDO).
