  • 패독발생의 원인규명을 위한 모니터링의 일환으로 원인생물의 출현과 휴면포자의 발아에 의한 현장 개체군의 유입가능성을 조사하기 위하여 1993년 9월부터 진해만을 중심으로 Alexandrium속의 발생현황, 원인생물의 잠재력을 제공하는 저질중의 휴면포자의 분포 및 실내 발아율을 조사하였다. 만내의 조사된 모든 정점에서 1월부터 Alexandrium속이 출현하여 대곡리 정점(칠천도)에서 3월에 533 개체/l의 최고치를 보였으며, 다른 지점에서는 100개체 이하를 나타냈으나 수온상승기인 4월에는 출현량이 감소하였다. 저질중의 Alexandrium속 휴면포자의 분포밀도는 채집한 정점간의 차이가 많아 100-800 개체/$cm^3$의 밀도를 보였으나, 채집지역의 저질상부층$(0\~4cm)$에서 $700\~800$ 개체/$cm^3$의 분포 지점이 많았다 휴면포자의 발아율은 수정리 정점에서 1월$(72.5\%)$, 4월$(68.0\%)$, 7월$(44\%)$ 및 10월$(9.0\%)$ 순으로 채집 계절에 따른 차이를 나타냈으며, 1월 채집한 만내의 다른 2 정점의 휴면포자도 $71\~97|%$의 높은 발아율을 보였다. 한편, 수심이 얕은 다대포 지점의 휴면포자는 6월$(86.5\%)$과 10월$(70.0\%)$에도 높은 발아율을 보여 진해만의 각 지점과는 대조적인 결과를 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 Alexandrium속 휴면포자의 발아는 지역환경에 따라 차이를 보일 수 있으며 비교적 수심이 깊은 지역에서는 온도 등의 환경요인의 변동 외에 내재적 발아리듬의 영향이 클 것으로 추정되었다. 따라서 진해만에서는 저수온기일지라도 휴면포자의 발아에 의한 Alexandrium속의 출현이 놀게 나타나며, 이 지역의 패독발생의 원인생물로 기여할 가능성이 높은 것으로 시사되었다.

  • For the safety assessment of microbiological and chemical hazards in raw short-neck clam Ruditapes philippinarum distributed in the Yeongnam and Honam areas during the spring season, the contamination levels of total viable bacteria, coliforms, Escherichia coli, and nine pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp., Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Clostridium perfringens, Listeria monocytogenes, enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, Bacillus cereus, Campylobacter jejuni) as microbiological hazards, and heavy metals (lead, cadmium, total mercury), benzopyrene, shellfish poison (paralytic, diarrhetic, amnesic), and radioactivity (131I, 134Cs+137Cs) were also analyzed in 15 samples based on the methods of the Korean Food Code. The average contamination levels of total viable bacteria were 3.11 (1.40-4.49) log CFU/g, and coliforms were detected in 5 out of 15 samples (1.18-1.85 log CFU/g). E. coli and S. aureus were not detected in all samples. Furthermore, the presence of 8 pathogens were not detected in all samples. The average contamination levels of lead, cadmium, and total mercury were 0.155 (0.079-0.264), 0.160 (0.040-0.287), and 0.017 (0.008-0.026) mg/kg, respectively. Benzo(a)pyrene, shellfish poison, and radioactivity were not detected in all samples. The results of this study suggest that the safety against all microbiological and chemical hazard factors in raw short-neck clams distributed in markets has been assured.

  • 부산 및 경남일대에서 널리 유통되고 있는 생선회, 패류 등의 횟감류 213건을 대상으로 주요 식중독 원인균인 Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes 및 Campylobacter jejuni의 오염실태를 조사하였다. V. parahaermolyticus가 65건(30.5%), B. cerus가 21건(9.9%), S. aureus가 8건(3.8%) 및 기타 식중독균이 3건에서 검출되었다. 이를 월별 검출율로 비교해 보면, 7~10월에서 식중독균의 높은 검출율을 나타내었으며, 이러한 높은 검출율은 주로 V. parahaemolyticus에 기인된 것으로 조사되었다. 아울러 생선회에서의 검출율(28.9%) 보다는 패류 등의 기타 횟감류에서 더욱 높은 검출율(49.2%)을 나타내었다. V. parahaemolyticus의 경우 Ampicillin (96.9%), Amikacin (29.2%) 및 Tetracycline (27.7%)에 대해 내성을 나타내었으며, B. rereus의 경우는 Ampicillin (100%), Penicillin G (100%) 및 Rifampicin (71.4%)에 대해 높은 내성을 나타내었다. V. parahaemolyticus와 B. cereus의 생육은 보관온도 및 시간에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 수돗물 세척이 해산물에 잔존하는 V. parahaemolyticus의 균수를 크게 감소시키는 것으로 조사되어, 여름철 해산물 섭취로 인한 식중독 발생의 예방을 위해서 $10^{\circ}C$이하의 저온보관과 수돗물로써의 철저한 세척이 필수적인 것으로 판단되었다.

  • The marine dinoflagellate genus Alexandrium has been recognized as the most representative toxic phytoplankton on account of production of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) throughout the world. PSP producers, generally A, tamarense and A. catenella, within the genus Alexandrium have caused high level intoxicauon of fisheries products and even death of human. In addition, more recent increasing of geographical range of this deleterious species has given rise to alarming tension. The study presented here aimed construction of the molecular phylogenetic relationships through sequences-determination from 16 morphotypic species (containing newly sequenced 3 morphotypic species, A. tamiyavainchii, A. fraterculus and A. pseudogonyaulax) in LSU rDNA D1-D2 and 12 morphotypic species (containing newly sequenced 6 - morphotypic species, A. catenella, A. tamiyavanichii, A. fraterculus, A. affine, A. insuetum and A. pseudogonyaulax) in SSU rDNA region, and the sequences were subjected to comparative-analysis in respect to regional population using functionally expressed rDNA genus and pseudogenes. And we discussed on genetic differentiation between A. tamarense and A. catenella together with putative PSP divegence of the genus Alexandrium. The results of phylogenetic analysis showed the robust monophyletic 14 distinct classes of A. tamarense, A. excavatum, A. catenella, Tasmanian A. tamarense, A. affine (and/or A. concavum), Thai A. tamarense, A. tamiyavanichii, A. fraterculus, A. margalefii, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum (and/or A. lusitanicum), A. insuetum, and A, pseudogonyaulx clade. A. fraterculus and A. tamiyavanichii were sister relationship and they were positioned independently between A, affine cluster and those of A. margalefi, A. andersonii, A. ostenfeldii, A. minutum and A. insuetum. A. pseudogonyaulax appeared to be an ancestral taxon among Alexandrium.

  • The marine dinoflagellate genus Alexandrium comprise PSP producing A. acatenella, A. angustitabuzatum, A. catenella, A. fundyense, A. minutum, A. ostenfezdii, A. tamiyavanichii and A. tamarense. In monitoring toxic Alexandrium, rapid and exact species identification is one of the significant prerequisite work, however we have suffered confusion of species definition in Alexandrium. To surmount this problem, we chose DNA probing, which has long been used as an alternative for conventional identification methods, primarily relying on morphological approaches using microscope in microbial field. Oligonucleotide DNA probes targeting rRNA or rDNA have been commonly used in diverse studies to detect and enumerate cells concerned as a culture-indetendent powerful tool. Despite of the massive literature on the HAB species containing Alexandrium, application of DNA probing for species identification and detection has been limited to a few documents. DNA probes of toxic A. tamarense, A. catenella and A. tamiyavanichii, and non-toxic A. affine, A. fraterculus, A. insuetum and A. pseudogonyaulax were designed from LSU rDNA D1-D2, and applied to whole cell-FISH. Each DNA probes reacted only the targeted Alexandrium cells with very high species-specificity within Alexandrium. The probes could detect each targeted cells obtained from the natural sea water samples without cross-reactivity. Labeling intensity varied in the growth stage, this showed that the contents of probe-targeted cellular rRNA decreased with reduced growth rate. Double probe TAMID2S1 achieved approximately two times higher fluorescent intensity than that with single probe TAMID2. This double probe did not cross-react with any kinds of microorganisms in the natural sea waters. Therefore we can say that in whole-cell FISH procedure this double DNA probe successfully labeled targeted A. tamiyavanichii without cross-reaction with congeners and diverse natural bio-communities.

  • The fact that hazardous metals do not bio-degrade or bio-deteriorate translates to long-lasting environmental effects. In the context of evidently rapid global industrialization, this ought to warrant serious caution, particularly in developing countries. In the Republic of Fiji, a developing country in the South Pacific, several different environmental studies over the past 20 years have shown levels of lead, copper, zinc and iron in sediments of the Suva Harbor to be 6.2, 3.9, 3.3 and 2.1 times more than the accepted background reference levels, respectively. High levels of mercury have also been reported in lagoon shellfish. These data inevitably warrant thorough assessment of the waste practices of industries located upstream from the estuaries, but in addition, an exposure and health impact assessment has never been conducted. Relevant government departments are duty-bound, at least to the general public that reside in and consume seafood from the vicinities of the Suva Harbor, to investigate possible human effects of the elevated hazardous metal concentrations found consistently in 20 years of surface sediment analysis. Furthermore, pollution of the intermediate food web with hazardous metals should be investigated, regardless of whether human effects are eventually confirmed present or not.

  • This sanitary survey was carried out to investigate the bacteriological contamination of cooking utensils and foods of moving tavern in eight sample sites of Seoul area. The results of survey were as follows: 1. The counts by means of total bacteria in cooking utensils and food samples by standard plate count method were as follow: $5.6\times10^5$ per gm in dishcloth, $3.1\times10^6$ per ml in dishwater. In food samples, $5.4\times10^5$ per gm in meat was higher than other samples. 2. The average counts total coliform and fecal coliform in samples by MPN method were as follow: $3.4\times10^4$ MPN per 100ml, and $1.3\times10^2$ MPN per 100ml in chopping board, $6.1\times10^4$MPN per gm and $1.0\times10^2$ MPN per gm in dishcloth, $1.8\times10^5$ MPN per 100ml and $6.1\times10^2$ MPN per 100ml in dishwater. In food samples, $3.1\times10^4$MPN per gm and $2.0\times10^2$ MPN per gm in meat was higher than other samples. 3. The counts by means of Pseudomonas in samples by MPN method were as follow: $2.8\times10^3$ MPN per 100ml in chopping board, $4.7\times10^3$ MPN per gm in dishcloth $5.6\times10^3$ MPN per 100ml in dishwater. In food samples, $2.4\times10^3$ MPN per gm in shellfish was higher than other samples. 4. Isolation cases of Food poisoning organisms from samples were as follow: Staphylococci was detected 9 cases $(17.6\%)$ in chopping board, 7 cases $(13.6\%)$ in dishcloth. In food samples, 9 cases $(25.7\%)$ in meat, 1 case $(4\%)$ in fish samples. Salmonella was detected 2 cases $(3.9\%)$ in dishwater, 1 case in meat samples.

  • While phytoplankton diversity and productivity in the Southern Ocean has been widely studied in recent years, most attention has been given to elucidating environmental factors that affect the dynamics of micro-plankton (mainly diatoms) and nano-plankton (mainly Phaeocystis antarctica). Only limited effects have been given to studying the occurrence and the potential risks associated with the blooming of dinoflagellates in the relevant waters. This study focused on the appearance and toxicological characteristics of a toxic dinoflagellate, Alexandrium tamarense, identified and isolated from the Drake Passage in a research cruise from November to December 2001 The appearance of A. tamarense in the Southern Ocean indicates the risk of a paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) outbreak there and is therefore of scientific concern. Results showed that while the overall quantity of A. tamarense in water samples from 30meters below the sea surface often comprised less than 0.1% of the total population of phytoplankton, the highest concentration of A. tamarense (20 cells $L^{-1}$) was recorded in the portion of the Southern Ocean between the southern end of South America and the Falkland Islands. Waters near the Polar Front contained the second highest concentrations of 10-15 cells $L^{-1}$. A. tamarense was however rarely found in waters near the southern side of the Polar Front, indicating that cold sea temperatures near the Antarctic ice does not favor the growth of this dinoflagellate. One strain of A. tamarense from this cruise was isolated and cultured for further study in the laboratory. Experiments showed that this strain of A. tamarense has a high tolerance to temperature variations and could survive at temperatures ranging from $5-26^{\circ}C$. This shows the cosmopolitan nature off. tamarense. With regard to the algal toxins produced, this strain of A. tamarense produced mainly C-2 toxins but very little saxitoxin and gonyailtoxin. The toxicological property of this A. tamarense strain coincided with a massive death of penguins in the Falkland Islands in December 2002 to January 2003.

  • 규조류 Pseudo-nitzschia는 아미노산의 일종 신경독인 기억상실성 패독 domoic aicd (DA)를 생산하여 주목받고 있는 속이다. 최근 2010년 여름철에 남해 EEZ 골재채취 단지와 거문도에서 Pseudo-nitzschia cf. brasiliana가 최고 우점종으로 출현하여 그 형태 특성을 관찰하였다. P. cf. brasiliana는 개각(valve)의 모양이 선형이었고, 길이와 폭은 각각 $51{\sim}76{\mu}m$, $1.9{\sim}2.6{\mu}m$이었으며 중간 공간(central interspace)은 없었다. $10{\mu}m$ 안의 등줄안다리(fibulae) 수와 점무늬열(striae) 수는 각각 30~37, 31~37이었다. 미소공(poroid)은 2~3줄이었으며, $1{\mu}m$안에 10~14개가 있었다. 이러한 형태 특성은 $10{\mu}m$ 안에 있는 등줄안다리(fibulae) 수와 점무늬열(striae)의 수, 미소공(Poroid) 수에서 P. brasiliana와 크게 차이가 났다. 따라서 P. cf. brasiliana는 P. brasiliana의 변종이나 신종으로 추정된다.
