수분활성을 조절한 오징어육으로 제조한 저염 오징어젓갈의 우점 미생물을 분리 동정하고 숙성중 변화를 조사하였다. 우점미생물은 젖산균으로 Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus brevis, Leuconostoc sp., Pediococcus sp., Streptococcus sp.,로 동정되었으며 총균수의 80%를 차지하였다. 숙성중 Leuconostoc, Streptococcus, Pediococcus는 초기에 급격히 증가하였다가 숙성적기 이후에 급속히 감소하였으며 Lactobacillus는 숙성적기 이후에 급격히 증가하였다. 한편, yeast는 숙성중기 이후에 검출되었으며 숙성말기에 급격히 증가하여 주로 부패에 관여하는 것으로 사료되었다.

This study was conducted to isolate and identify the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from spent mushroom substrates (SMS) for the effective anaerobic fermentation to utilize SMS as an animal feed and to determine the optimal medium conditions for their growth. At first, a total of 23 strains were isolated from the ensiled SMS based on the LAB counts and pH tested. Then, a total of 16 strains which rapidly produce lactate and decreased the pH, were selected for a screening test. The optical density (OD), pH, and yellow clear zone were tested for the selected 16 strains. Among the strains, KU5 strain had wider yellow clear zone and lower pH and KU13 strain had higher OD at 24 hr of incubation and wider yellow clear zone compared to other strains and control strain (Lactobacillus plantarum KCCM 12116). Accordingly, KU5 and KU13 strains were finally selected. The KU5 and KU13 were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum by the 16S rRNA sequencing. The KU5 strain was named as Lactobacillus plantarum KU5, and the KU13 strain was named as Lactobacillus plantarum KU13. Lactobacillus plantarum KU5 and Lactobacillus plantarum KU13 were registered at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). Access number of Lactobacillus plantarum KU5 was HQ542227 and that of Lactobacillus plantarum KU13 was HQ542228. The optimal medium conditions for growth of KU5 and KU13 were soybean meal 2% and formulated feed 2%, respectively.

Lactic acid is an important product arising from the anaerobic fermentation by lactic acid bacteria (LAB). It is used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, chemical, and food industries as well as for biodegradable polymer and green solvent production. The poly lactic acid (PLA) is an important material for bio-plastic manufacturing process. For PLA production by new LAB, we screened LAB isolates from shellfish. A total of 28 LAB were isolated from various shellfishes. They were all Gram positive, oxidase and catalase negative. Based on API 50CHL kit, 7 strains among the 28 isolates were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum, 6 strains as Lactobacillus delbrueckii, 5 strains as Leuconostoc mesenteroides, 3 strains as Lactobacillus brevis, 2 strains as Lactococcus lactis, 1 strain as Lactobacillus salivarius, 1 strain as Lactobacillus paracasei, 1 strain as Lactobacillus pentosus, 1 strain as Lactobacillus fermentum and 1 strain as Pediococcus pentosaceu. Also, we examined the amount of total lactic acid produced by these new strains by HPLC analysis with Chiralpak MA column. One strain E-3 from Mytilus edulis was indentified as Lactobacillus plantarum and found to produce 20.0 g/L of D-form lactic acid from 20 g/L of dextrose. Further studies are underway to increase the D-lactic acid production by E-3.

Lactobacilli are normal constituents of the intestinal microbiota, and some strains show the capacity to bind to extracellular matrix proteins and components of the mucosal layer, which represents an adaptation to persist in this niche. A shotgun phage-display library of Lactobacillus casei BL23 was constructed and screened for peptides able to bind to fibronectin and collagen. Clones showing binding to these proteins were isolated, which encoded overlapping fragments of a putative transcriptional regulator (LCABL_29260), a hypothetical protein exclusively found in the L. casei/rhamnosus group (LCABL_01820), and a putative phage-related endolysin (LCABL_13470). The construction of different glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusions confirmed the binding activity and demonstrated that the three identified proteins could interact with fibronectin, fibrinogen, and collagen. The results illustrate the utility of phage display for the isolation of putative adhesins in lactobacilli. However, it remains to be determined whether the primary function of these proteins actually is adhesion to mucosal surfaces.

This study was conducted to isolate lactobacilli having characteristics to be used as health adjuncts with fermented milk products. Acid tolerant strains were selected in Lactobacilli MRS broth adjusted to pH 4.0 from human faeces. Bile tolerant strains were examined in Lactobacilli MRS broth in which 1.0% bile salt was added. Microhemagglutination tests using swine erythrocytes were performed to select lactobacilli having adherence properties to survive in the intestinal tract. By examination of these characteristics the strain Nam 27, which was isolated from adult faeces, was selected and identified as Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salivarius based on carbohydrate fermentation and 16S rDNA sequencing.

One single lactic acid producing bacterium, isolated from kimchi, inhibited the growth and adherence of Helicobacter pylori to the human gastric epithelial cell line MKN-45. This isolate was identified as Lactobacillus plantarum and termed L. plantarum strain PL9011. The adherence of H pylori, in the presence of live or nonviable L. plantarum strain PL9011 (10-fold CFU), decreased to 14-20%. The spent culture supernatant of L. plantarum strain PL9011 resulted in the eradication of H pylori. This activity remained stable following neutralization and heat treatment, but not following pepsin treatment, thereby suggesting small peptides as the inhibitory factor. L. plantarum strain PL9011 did not produce any harmful metabolites or enzymes. The results obtained in this study suggest that the L. plantarum strain PL9011 may be a potential novel probiotic for the stomach.

Human breast milk is a potential source of bacteria for the development of the intestinal microbiota of infants. Several species within the genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium were demonstrated to shape the gut microbiota of infants. In this study, the bacterial diversity was investigated in the breast milk and feces of a mother-infant pair, and probiotic candidates were identified. Importantly, the novel L. gasseri EJL and B. breve JTL strains were isolated from breast milk and infant feces samples, respectively; their completed genome was resolved using de novo sequencing. In addition, the bacterial composition in the infant's feces at 1 week revealed the prevalence of Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus; a higher diversity was observed after 3 weeks. In particular, the abundance of Akkermansia was sharply increased at 7 weeks, further increasing thereafter, up to 15 weeks. Our results suggest that human breast milk and infant's feces are a source of probiotic candidates.

Bacteriophages (phages) are known determinants of kimchi microbial ecology. Lactobacillus plantarum is related to kimchi over-acidification during the late stages of kimchi fermentation. A phage infecting Lac. plantarum was isolated from kimchi and characterized. The phage population for kimchi in a market was 2.3 log particles/mL, which corresponded to 32% of the bacterial population on a log scale. The isolated phage was designated as ΦLP12116. ΦLP12116 which belonged to the Siphoviridae family and has a very narrow host range, infecting only Lac. plantarum. The phage was stable at a lactic acid concentration of 1.0% and pH 4.0 at 4℃, indicating that it could survive in kimchi. In the kimchi extract broth treated by the phage, the growth of Lac. plantarum KCCM 12116 was inhibited by 2.2 log CFU/mL compared to the growth in non-phage-treated broth. Therefore, this study suggests that the growth of Lac. plantarum, which is known as an acid-producing strain during late fermentation in kimchi, may be controlled using the phage.

배추김치로부터 식품유해균인 Listeria monocytogenes를 저해하는 박테리오신을 생산하는 유산균, Lactobacillus sakei P3-1이 분리되었다. 형태학적, 생화학적 특성조사와 최종적으로 PCR로 증폭하여 얻은 16S rDNA 염기서열 결정을 통해서 L. sakei로 동정되었다. L. sakei P3-1이 분비하는 박테리오신은 여러 그람 양성 및 음성균들 중에서 단지 L. monocytogenes만을 저해하는 그래서 저해범위가 매우 좁은 박테리오신으로 확인되었다. 이온교환 크로마토그래피에 의해서 박테리오신은 부분 정제되었으며 박테리오신의 열처리 안정성을 조사한 결과 121$^{\circ}C$에서 15분간 그리고10$0^{\circ}C$에서 10분간 열처리 후에도 각각 12.5%와 50%의 역가가 잔존하여 상당한 열안정성을 지니고 있음을 알 수 있었다. MRS배지에서 배양중 배양온도가 박테리오신 역가에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 배양할 때 그리고 18시간 이상 배양에서 가장 높은 1,000 AU/mL 역가를 보였다. 한편 SDS-PAGE 및 activity staining에 의해 측정된 박테리오신의 분자량은 4,000이었다. L. monocytogenes 생육 억제능, 작은 분자량 및 높은 열안정성 등의 성질들을 종합적으로 고려할 때 L. sakei P3-1이 생산하는 박테리오신은 박테리오신들 중에서 class II-a에 속하는 것으로 추정된다.

원유로부터 bacteriocin을 생산하는 미생물을 분리하고 이 균주들을 중심으로 Lactobacillus plantarum을 target organism으로 하여 항균력을 비교하였다. 분리된 항균성물질들은 Gram양성 및 음성균에 대하여 넓은 항균 spectrum을 보였으며 선발균주 중 최종적으로 항균력이 가장 높은 1112-1을 우량균주로 선발하였다. 선발한 1112-2 균주의 항균성물질 230 IU/ml 첨가시에 Lactobacillus plantarum의 생육은 완전히 억제되었으며 500IU/ml 첨가시 E.coli의 생육은 대조구조에 비하여 11 억제되었다.
