The result of studying the pathogenicity of Salmonella typhimurium and S enteritidis isolated from domestic animals in Gyeongbuk province were summarized as follows. In Congo-red binding test, S typhimurium had much more rough types than S enteritidis. In colicin production test, 4 strains of S typhimurium were positive but all of S enteritidis were negative. In hemolysin production test, all of S typhimurium and S enteritidis were negative. In Guinea pig serum resistant test, all of S typhimurium and S enteritidis were positive. As a result of pathogenicity test to mice, 54.4% of mice were died. Therefore, S typhimurium and S enteritidis were considered as highly pathogenic. S typhimurium DT104 and S enteritidis PT4 were more pathogenic to mice than other phage types of same serovar. S typhimurium and S enteritidis were considered not so pathogenic for 6-day-old chickens. The recovery rates of Salmonella stains from mice and chickens inoculated were 96.8%, and 54%, respectively. In chickens, proportional to the time from 2 weeks after challenge inoculation, the recovery rates were noticeably decreased.

Antimicrobial activity of silver ion was tested against 3 kinds of food-borne microorganisms-Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus-using paper disk and broth medium methods. In paper disk method, silver ion showed antimicrobial activity against S. typhimurium and V. parahaemolyticus at the concentration above 2 ppm and 10 ppm, respectively, where as it was not detected in S. aureus with 20 ppm of silver ion concentration. In broth medium, the growth of S. typhimurium and V. Porahaemolyticus could be retarded at 0.3 ppm and 0.5 ppm of silver ion concentration respectively. In the presence of 1.0 ppm of silver ion, the growth of S. typhimurium was inhibited completely. In S. aureus, the growth was retarded at 5 ppm and was inhibited at l5 ppm completely.

This study was performed to predict the multiplication growth patterns of Salmonella typhimurium according to the holding methods and times in cooked foods served at foodservice institutions. When simmered pork in soy sauce and ham and cucumber salad were inoculated with S. typhimurium (7.00 logCFU/g) and tested according to holding methods and times, room temperature holding showed a continuous increase in S. typhimurium count as time passed, whereas 80$^{\circ}C$ heating table sharply reduced the count to 4.00 (logCFU/g) after 2hrs of holding and to zero after 6hrs, which suggested that all S. typhimurium were destroyed. However, 5$^{\circ}C$ refrigerator holding showed a count increase, although it wasis still lower than that at room temperature and at 10$^{\circ}C$ cold table holding, which suggested that S. typhimurium is comparatively resistive to low temperature.

This paper deals with the distribution, reservoir and mode of spread of infection on 6 hatcheries in Taegu, Kyungpook and 5 broiler farms in Kyungpook during the period from June 1991 to June 1992. Isolated Salmonella were examined for serotypes, biotyping of Salmonella(S) typhimurtum, antibiotic susceptibility and some biochemical characteristics. Forty two Salmonella strains were isolated from 42(2.7% of 1,577 caecal samples of chicks, and their serotypes were S typhimurium 10, S typhimurium var Copenhagen 5, S infantis 4, S thompson 3, and untypable 20. The isolation rate of Salmonella varied from 0 to 5.1% in 6 hatcheries and that of Salmonella from 5 broiler farms was 10. 5%. Biotypes of 10 S typhimurium and 5 S typhimurium var Copenhagen strains isolated from chicks of hatcheries and broiler farms were biotype 2(86.6%), 8(6.7%), and 10a(6.7%), and 26i(6.7%) according to Duguid's scheme. Antibiotic susceptibility test of Salmonella isolated were performed by agar dilution method, using 9 antibiotics as follows: ampicillin(Am), chloramphenicol(Cm), gentamicin(Gm), kanamycin(Km), nalidixic acid(Na), rifampicin(Rf), streptomycin(Sm), sulfadimethoxine(Su), and tetracycline(Tc), All the strains were sensitive to RF. But 8 strans(23.8%) were resistant to one or more drugs and the most common resistance patterns of transferred R plasmids were SmSuGm and SmSu. Among 42 isolates, one had transferable citrate utilizing plasmid. S typhimurium and S typhimurium var copenhagen strains were resistant to killing by 90% normal guinea pig serum.

Autophagy is one of the lysosomal degradation pathways to maintain cellular homeostasis. The damaged proteins or organelles are uptaken through extra- and intra-cellular stress, starvation and infected pathogens, subsequently, autophagosomes are fused with lysosomes to break down the molecules. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium), intracellular bacteria, cause acute gastroenteritis and food poisoning. Given that autophagy induced by S. Typhimurium plays an important role in the cells to control the infection, we identify whether the induction of autophagy with rapamycin, chemical inducer of autophagy, before infection regulates S. Typhimurium infection. After treatment of rapamycin or 3-methyladenine (3-MA), autophagy inhibitor, RAW264.7 cells were infected with S. Typhimurium. Pretretment of rapamycin decreased the growth rate of S. Typhimurium in the cells; otherwise, pretreatment of 3-MA increased the growth rate of S. Typhimurium. The expression of autophagy-related genes was significantly increased in the S. Typhimurium-infected cells pretreated with rapamycin. To examine whether induced autophagy by rapamycin control the infection with increase the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO), antibacterial radical substrates were measured in infected cells followed by the treatment with either rapamycin or 3-MA. NO production increased in RAW264.7 cells; otherwise, ROS production remained unchanged during the infection. These findings suggest that inducing autophagy with rapamycin reveals antimicrobial activity as producing NO against S. Typhimurium infection in mouse macrophages.

In an effort to evaluate Salmonella food safety using combinations of preservation techniques, its viabilities when exposed to HCl, acetic acid, and the oxidative agents (hydrogen peroxide and butyl hydrogen peroxide), were analyzed using sub-lethal heat-shocked Salmonella Typhimurium at $56^{\circ}C$. 2D gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF MS analyses were also conducted to determine the expression and repression of proteins in heat-shocked cells. Heat-shocked S. Typhimurium evidenced a reduction of viable counts by 1-2 log CFU/mL. However, viality of non heat-shocked S. Typhimurium decreased markedly by 5-6 log CFU/mL at a pH 4 in response to acid and oxidative stresses. Sub-lethal heat treatment greatly increased the resistance of S. Typhimurium against acid and oxidant agents. As for 2D gel electrophoresis and protein identification via MALDI-TOF MS, 17 major proteins in non heat-shocked S. Typhimurium were detected, and only 13 proteins among these proteins were detected in heat-shocked S. Typhimurium. The heat shock proteins such as DnaK and small heat shock proteins were included, and may be associated with the resistance of S. typhimurium against exposure to acids and oxidants. Therefore, even though the promising hurdle technology using the combined mild treatments including heat was applied to S. Typhimurium, the proper heat treatment to reduce its crossprotection activity toward the following preservative agents might be considered.

The antimicrobial properties of extracts of Prunus mume were tested on Salmonella paratyphimurium and S. typhimurium. First, the Prumus mume was extracted with methanol at several temperatures, and then fractionation of the methanol extracts from Prunus mume was carried out by using petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate or butanol. Secondly, absorption column chromatoraphy (using a Diaion HP 20) was conducted to eliminate some water soluble materials that might inhibit the antimicrobial activity of some extracts. The antimicrobial activitry of each of the Prunus mume extracts was determined using a paper disc method against several food-borne pathogens, The growth inhibition curve was determine using butanol extracts of Prunus mume against Salmonella typhimurium. The extraction temperature did not have any significant effect on the yield of the extract or on the level of antimicrobial activity. The butanol extract of Prunus mume showed strong antimicrobial activity against Salmonella paratyphimurium and S. typhimurium; a 1,000 ppm of butanol extract of Prunus mume retared the growth of S. typhimurium up to 36 hours.

Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is one of the common food pathogens which may cause gastroenteritidis in human and animals. The microorganism also causes the economic loss in animal farming and food industry. In this study, the disinfection efficacy of a powder disinfectant containing phosphate compounds as a main ingredient, was evaluated against S. Typhimurium. A bactericidal efficacy test by broth dilution method was used to determine the lowest effective dilution of the disinfectant following exposure to test bacteria for 30 min at $4^{\circ}C$. The disinfectant and test bacteria were diluted with hard water (HW) or organic matter suspension (OM) according to treatment condition. On HW and OM conditions, the bactericidal activity of the disinfectant against S. Typhimurium was 4- and 2-fold dilutions, respectively. As the disinfectant composed to phosphate compounds possesses bactericidal efficacy against pathogenic bacteria such as S. Typhimurium, the powder disinfectant can be used to control the spread of bacterial diseases.

Vibrio vulnificus Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was extracted, performed chemical analysis, tested its biological activities, and compared to those of Escherichia coli LPS and Salmonella typhimurium LPS. The lethal activity of V. vulnificus LPS was 138.6138.6 mg/kg in mouse, but this was lower than thowe of E. coli LPS (56.3 mg/kg) and S. typhimurium LPS (37.5 mg/kg). The result of fatty acid analysis showed that V. vulnificus LPS had more saturated fatty acid than E. coli LPS and S. typhimurium LPS. Above results indicated that V. vulnificus LPS did not have much effect on the lethality. The results of biological responses of enzymes and blood cells by LPSs showed that V. vulnificus LPS had slightly greater activity than E. coli LPS and S. typhimurium LPS. V. vulnificus LPS was recommendavle for stimulant on interferon induction because of adequate stimulation and safety for host and cell lines.
