Normalized resistance interpretation (NRI) analysis for tetracycline was applied to generate information on the epidemiological cut-off value for Vibrio ichthyoenteri isolated from diseased olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) larvae. Thus, 42 strains of V. ichthyoenteri were used to determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of tetracycline using Etest. Also, 11 tetracycline resistance related genes were investigated by PCR method. Most tetracycline-resistant strains harbored both tetB and tetM with a few exceptions. NRI-derived mean and 2 SD above the mean of theoretical normal distributions of susceptible isolates were 0.33 mg/L and 1.66 mg/L, respectively. The epidemiological cut-off value for V. ichthyoenteri from the calculations could be set to S ${\leq}$ 2 mg/L. Of the 42 strains, 15 were classified as non-wild type (NWT), and MIC values of the NWT strains vary regardless of tetB and tetM detection, suggesting that there may be other mechanisms involved in tetracycline resistance in this Vibrio species.

We isolated 28 Vibrio vulnificus strains from seawater and fisheries and investigated the positive rate of eight virulence genes. Additionally, we evaluated the susceptibility of these strains to 25 antimicrobials. The positive rates of fur, vvhA, tcp, rtxA, vcgC, viuB, vvp, and acfA were 100, 92.9, 92.9, 67.9, 64.3, 25.0, 14.3, and 7.1%, respectively. A disk diffusion susceptibility test revealed that, all the investigated strains had the highest resistance to amoxicillin and oxacillin, followed by that to streptomycin (96.4%), cefoxitin (92.9%), clindamycin (82.1%), amikacin (67.9%), vancomycin (46.4%), nalidixic acid (7.1%), penicillin G (7.1%), and ampicillin (3.6%). Moreover, they were susceptible to 10 other antimicrobials, including cefotaxime, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, gentamicin, and rifampicin. Notably, amoxicillin, oxacillin, and streptomycin had average minimum inhibitory concentrations of 132.6, 603.4, and 23.1 ㎍/mL against V. vulnificus, respectively. These observations provide new insights regarding the necessity for sanitation of commercial fisheries and can potentially, help reduce the risk posed by fisheries contaminated with bacteria resistant to antimicrobials.

Fifty four strains of pathogenic vibrios were isolated from the Gwangan Beach from May to October, 2002. The isolated vibrios were composed of 7 different species: Vibrio parahaemolyticus, V. cholerae non-O1, V. alginolyticus, V. vulnificus, V. hollisae, V. fluvialis, ane V. mimicus. In the detection rate, V. parahaemolyticus was most predominant as $46\%$(25/54). From the isolated strains, only 25 strains have hemolytic activity or 25 strains only proteolytic activity on agar plates. Eleven strains showed both hemolytic and proteolytic activity. No strains showed urease activity. All strains of V parahaemolyticus did not show hemolytic activity, while V. cholerae non-O1 strains showed $\beta$ hemolytic activity. Kanagawa phenomena of pathogenic vibrios did not accord with hemolytic activity of the culture supernatant at the late log phase. Some strains showed high hemolytic activity despite having proteolytic activity, but some weak hemolytic activities despite having no proteolytic activity.

수입 냉동어패류에서 24주의 Vibiro 균주를 순수 분리하여 그들의 생리, 생화학적 특성에 따라 동정한 결과 V. cholerae non-O1과 V. diazotrophicus가 각 2주, V. hollisae 1주, V. natriegens 5주, V. fluvialis 8주, V. nereis 4주인 것으로 밝혀졌고 2주는 Vibirio속 균주가 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 이 균주들을 API-2OE kit로 동정한 결과는 위의 결과와 매우 달라, V. cholerae로 동정된 2주와 fluvialis로 동정된 5균주의 경우에만 결과가 일치하였고 나머지는 Vibrio속이 아닌 것으로 분석되었다. 식품류에서 V. cholerae가 검출된 점에 주목하여 이 분리균들의 동정을 보다 정확히 하기 위하여 분리균들의 165 rRNA를 증폭시켜 이들의 RFLP를 분석하였다. 그 결과, r cholerae로 동정된 두 균주는 동일한 RFLP양상을 갖고 있었으며, V. cholerae보다는 V. proteolyticus의 RFLP에 보다 가까운 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 식품류의 병원균 검색을 보다 정확하고 신속하게 할 수 있도록 효율적인 검색 방법의 개발이 시급하다고 하겠다.

Total 984 specimens were collected from sweages(130 specimens) and human rectal swabs(854 specimens) during period from October 1979 to November 1980 in Korea. Sixteen strains of salmonella were isolated from the human rectal swabs at the St. Mary's Hospital in Dae Jeon. They were confirmed into fifteen strains of S. typhi, one strain of S. paratyphi A. In other hand, fourty three strains of Shigella had been isolated from the stool specimens. They were typed as thirty four strains of Shigella flexneri, five strains of Shigella sonnei and one strain of Shigella dysenteriae. However, 16 strains of Vibrio eltor had been isolated from patients and carriers in the first epidemic areas in Chunla Namdo in September 1980. The serotype of isolated strains was determined as a Inaba which was resistant to the Mukerjee phage group IV but was susceptible to El Tor phage groupe I and II. Authors had been concluded that the strains were certain to be identified with Vibrio cholerae biotype El Tor.

Vibrio cholerae O1 serogroup Wave 3 El Tor strains are presently prevalent worldwide. The Wave 3 El Tor strains contain a TLC:RS1:CTX array on chromosome 1, and no element is integrated on chromosome 2. A multiplex PCR optimized to identify the TLC:RS1:CTX array of Wave 3 strains has been developed in this study. By using eight primers, the multiplex PCR can identify the characteristic CTX and RS1 array of Wave 3 strains from various arrays of strains belonging to other Waves. The four amplified DNA fragments of Wave 3 strains have been cloned in a vector, which could be used as a positive control for the multiplex PCR. This multiplex PCR and the positive control set could be useful tools for rapid recognition of Wave 3 El Tor strains.

In an attempt to develop a method for rapid and accurate identification of six Vibrio species that are clinically important and most frequently detected in Korea, 16S rDNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of Vibrio type strains, as well as environmental isolates obtained from the Korean coastal area, was analyzed using ten restriction endonucleases. Digestion of the 16S rDNA fragments amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with the enzymes gave rise to 2~6 restriction patterns for each digestion for 47 Vibrio strains and isolates. An additional 2~3 restriction patterns were observed for five reference species, including Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, A. salmonicida, Photobacterium phosphoreum, and Plesiomonas shigelloides. A genetic distance tree based on RFLP of the bacterial species correlated well with that based on 16S rDNA sequences. The very small 16S rDNA sequence difference (0.1%) between V. alginolyticus and V. parahaemolyticus was resolved clearly by RFLP with a genetic distance of more than 2%. RFLP variation within a species was also detected in the cases of V. parahaemolyticus, V. proteolyticus, and V. vulnificus. According to the RFLP analysis, six Vibrio and five reference species were assigned to 12 genotypes. Using three restriction endonucleases to analyze RFLP proved sufficient to identify the six pathogenic Vibrio species.

본 연구는 산업적으로 활용할 수 있는 lipase를 개발하기 위해 갯벌에서 분리된 Gelidibacter sp. YH333와 Vibrio sp. YH339에 의해 생산되는 lipase의 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 분리 균주들로부터 세포 외로 방출하는 lipase의 양은 세포수의 증가와 비례하여 급격하게 증가하였다. 분리 균주들에 의해 생산되는 lipase는 대부분 세포 외로 lipase를 방출함으로 lipase가 세포 밖으로 constitutively하게 분비됨을 알 수 있었다. 두 균주에서 생산된 lipase 모두 p-nitrophenyl laulate(C12:0)에서 가장 높은 활성을 보여 주었다. Gelidibacter sp. YH333에서 생산된 lipase가 Vibrio sp. YH339에 의해 생성된 lipase보다 모든 기질에 있어 높은 활성을 보여주고 있다. Gelidibacter sp. YH333에서는 약 50 KDa, 25 KDa 등 두 개의 lipase가 확인되었고 Vibrio sp. YH339에서는 약 50 KDa에 해당하는 lipase가 확인되었다.
