We developed the Eco medium for Escherichia coli and total coliforms, which was modified by Violet Red Bile (VRB) medium, and derived the standard curve of exponential phase at $OD_{410}$ by using type strains such as E. coli ATCC11303, Enterobacter cloacae KCTC2361, Klebsiella pneumoniae KCTC2241, and Citrobacter freundii KCTC2359. Also, we used total 93 samples of spring and stream water to compare the detection ability of total coliforms between the method using Eco medium and such as most probable number (MPN), and plate count methods. As a result, the qualitative analysis of E. coli and total coliforms using Eco medium contained ortho-nitrophenyl-$\beta$-galactoside (ONPG) and 4-methylumbelliferyl-$\beta$-D-glucuronide (MUG) was same as those of Korean standard methods (Colilert kit). And the colony forming unit (CFU) detected in Eco medium was similar to those of result from MPN and plate count methods. Moreover, the agreement, sensitivity, and specificity of the developed kit was more than 97.5% in comparison with Colilert kit for 350 samples. Thus, the Eco medium can be used both qualitative and quantitative analysis of E. coli and total coliforms.

A sanitary survey was conducted to evaluate the water quality and mussel (Mytilus edulis) conditions of two administrative shellfish growing waters: those designated as shellfish growing water for export, and adjacent waters on the east coast of Changseon Island, Namhae, Korea. In all, 1,656 seawater and 166 mussel samples were collected at 46 stations for seawater and five stations for the shellfish from January 2007 to December 2009. Both seawater and mussels were examined for total coliforms and fecal coliforms. The standard plate count and most probable number of Escherichia coli were also determined for the shellfish samples. The range of the geometric means and the estimated 90th percentiles of fecal coliform for seawater samples at each station were <1.8-4.1 MPN/100 mL and <1.8-22.3 MPN/100 mL, respectively. The sanitary conditions for both shellfish growing areas, the designated shellfish growing area and adjacent area in Changseon, met the 'Approved area' criteria of the United States National Shellfish Sanitation Program. The range of E. coli detected in mussels in these areas was <20-500 MPN/100 g; and only 3 of 166 samples exceeded 230 MPN/100 g, the European standard for the consumption of raw bivalves. Therefore, the mussel farms in the Changseon area are classified as 'Class A' according to criteria set in European Community regulations. However, the levels of E. coli in mussels in parts of the designated shellfish growing area and adjacent area exceeded the bacterial limits after rainfall exceeding 45 mm. Further studies are needed to fully define the conditions leading to a temporary closure to harvest after a rainfall event.

This study evaluated the abundance of fecal coliforms in oysters Crassostrea gigas, sea squirts Halocynthia roretzi and sea cucumbers Apostichopus japonicus in fisheries along the coast of Korea in 2014, and investigated the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolated from these fishery products. The ranges of fecal coliforms found in oysters, sea squirts and sea cucumbers were <18-20, <18-330 and <18-3,300 MPN (most probable number)/100 g, respectively. Sea squirts contained the greatest range of E. coli (<20-140 MPN/100 g), followed by sea cucumbers (<20-130 MPN/100 g) and oysters (<20-20 MPN/100 g). A total of 26 strains of E. coli were isolated from 34 sea squirt, 25 sea cucumber and 13 oyster samples. Strains thus isolated were tested for their susceptibility to 22 antimicrobial agents used in Korea for medical or veterinary therapy. E. coli isolates showed the greatest resistance to ampicillin (84.6%), followed by trimethoprim (34.6%), nalidixic acid (34.6%), tetracycline (30.8%), pipemidic acid (26.9%), streptomycin (23.1%), chloramphenicol (23.1%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (23.1%), and gentamicin (15.4%). Resistance to at least one antimicrobial agent was present in 88.5% of E. coli isolates. Of the 26 isolated, six strains (23.1%) were resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents.

국내에서 생산, 유통되고 있는 영유아용 분말 조제분유 99제품을 수집하여 일반세균, 대장균군, FAO/WHO Category A, B, C 위해세균 분류에 따른 오염현황을 분석하였다. 일반세균수는 총 99개의 제품 중 92개의 제품에서 검출(93%)되었으며 $1.83{\pm}0.68\;Log\;CFU/g$의 분포를 보였다. 최고 $4.5\;Log\;CFU/g$가 검출된 한 제품을 제외하고는 조제분유의 총균수의 기준규격에 적합하였다. 대장균군은 조제분유 대장균군의 기준규격이 음성인 것에 비해 99개의 제품 중 12개의 제품에서 검출(12%)되었으며 $1.26{\pm}1.03\;\log\;MPN/g$의 분포를 보였다. 대장균은 한 제품에서 0.48 log MPN/g으로 검출되었다. Category A 세균인 Salmonella와 En. sakazakii의 오염도 분석 결과 총 99개의 모든 제품에서 검출되지 않았다. Category B group인 세균 중에서 장내세균은 99개의 제품 중 25개의 제품에서 검출(25%)되었고 오염수준은 $0.83{\pm}1.37\;\log\;MPN/g$으로 나타났다. 검출된 Category B group 세균들로는 Escherichia vulneris, Es. hermannii, Pantoea spp., Citrobacter koseri, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloaceae 등이었다. Category C세균의 오염은 Bacillus cereus가 조제분유 99개의 제품 중에서 29개의 제품이 검출(29%)되어 비교적 높은 오염도를 보였지만 오염수준은 $0.69{\pm}0.32\;\log\;MPN/g$으로서 B. cereus의 국내 기준규격에 모두 적합하였다. 그 외의 Category C 세균은 검출되지 않았다. 국내 유통 조제분유의 주요 위해세균의 대한 미생물 오염정도가 낮아 미생물 기준 규격에 적합한 것으로 평가되었다. 그러나 Category B의 장내세균은 높은 검출율을 보였고 질환을 유발시킬 수 있는 균들이 확인되어 잠재적인 위험이 있다고 사료된다. 따라서 비살균식품인 조제분유의 특성상 잠재적인 위해세균 모니터링이 지속적으로 필요하며 그에 대한 안전성 확보에 능동적 자세가 필요하다.

Vibrio vulnificus is a Gram-negative marine bacterium known to cause septicemia. This study was conducted to investigate the distribution of V. vulnificus along the coast of Gadeok Island in Korea and to determine the molecular characteristics of isolated strains sampled between March and November 2019 from seawater. The strains were mostly detected between July and September, when the average water temperature and average salinity were 22.2-26.2℃ and 14.2-29.9 psu, respectively. V. vulnificus was not detected in seawater below 15℃. In September, the highest population of V. vulnificus was observed at 2,100 MPN (most probable number)/100 mL, attributable to decreased salinity from heavy rains. In addition, the detection rate of V. vulnificus was higher at the sampling station near the Nakdong River. Virulence-related genes were also identified among the isolates, such as vvhA (97.1%), viuB (44.1%), and vcgC (57.4%). In particular, viuB and vcgC were only observed in V. vulnificus isolated from June to September, when the detection rate was high and water temperature was above 20℃, suggesting the role of seasonal characteristics.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of low concentration of oxygen on reduction of perchlorate, especially low perchlorate influent concentrations in a biofilm reactor, as well as the effect of flow pattern in a biofilm reactor. Dissolved oxygen averaging 1 mg/L did not inhibit reduction of influent perchlorate from 23 to $426\;{\mu}g/L$ in the biofilm reactors when sufficient acetate was added, probably due to limitation of oxygen diffusion into the biofilm. Influent perchlorate ranging from 23 to $426\;{\mu}g/L$ was reduced to below detection level ($4\;{\mu}g/L$) in the presence of 1 mg/L dissolved oxygen (DO). Chloride was produced in a ratio of $0.37gCl^-/g{ClO_4}^-$ and $0.35gCl^-/g{ClO_4}^-$ in plug flow and recirculation biofilm reactor which is similar to stoichiometric amount ($0.36gCl^-/g{ClO_4}^-$) indicating complete perchlorate reduction at $426\;{\mu}g/L$ of ${ClO_4}^-$ feeding. At $23\;{\mu}g/L$L influent perchlorate, total biomass solids were 3.18 g and 2.81 g in the plug flow and recirculation biofilm reactors. The most probable number(MPN) analysis for perchlorate-reducing bacteria showed $10^4$ to $10^5\;cells/cm^2$ in both biofilm reactors throughout the experiments. The effluent perchlorate concentrations were not significantly different in the two different flow regimes, plug flow and recirculation biofilm reactors.

This study was carried out to find deodorization management method of the efflux from swine slurry treated by thermophilic aerobic oxidation reactor. Three kinds of deodorization methods in Lab-scale reactors, were used in this experiment; No treatment, air injection treatment(50$m\ell$ air/min. $\ell$) and inoculumn of photrophic bacteria treatement(108 cell(Most probable number, MPN)/$m\ell$). The concentration of volatile fatty acids(VFAs), hydrogen sulfide(H2S), and ammonia(NH3) were analyzed during the treatment period(50 days). The major results obtained as follows. 1. Air injection method to efflux showed very high removal effect on malodorants such as VFAs, hydrogen sulfide(H2B). But ammonia(NH3) was emitted to much. 2. PTB inoculum method was also effective in removal of malodorants, VFAs, Hydrogen sulfide(H2S), when it was applied to the efflux. 3. We found that the concentrations of malodorants, VFAs, H2S, NH3 had some relatinships with the pH, ORP, BOD in the efflux.
