본 연구는 2020년 10월 중 충청남도내 단체 급식소에서 발생한 대규모 집단 식중독 원인에 대하여 분석하였다. 전체 급식원 135명 중 21명(15.6%)에서 음식을 섭취한 후 1시간 이내에 주로 매스꺼움과 구토 증상을 보였다. 유증상자 21명 중 11명과, 조리종사자 1명, 조리기구 2건과 보존식 8건에서 B. cereus가 검출됨에 따라 B. cereus에 의한 집단 식중독으로 판단하였다. 분리된 21개의 균주를 PFGE 분석한 결과, 19개의 균주가 동일한 것으로 판단되었고, 이들 균주가 가지고 있는 독소 유전자는 CER, nheA, entFM이었다. 실험결과, CER을 포함하고, 증상 발현 시간이 1시간 이내로 매우 짧아 B. cereus의 구토형 식중독으로 판단하였다. 집단식중독 원인으로 안전하지 않은 급식환경과 제대로 관리되지 않은 음식에 의한 것이라 조사되었다. 이러한 결과는 단체급식에서의 급식환경과 제공되는 음식이 철저하게 관리되어야 한다는 것을 보여준다. 이와 더불어 보존식에서 원인 병원체를 찾아내는 것은 식중독의 원인을 추정하는데 매우 중요하므로, 집단급식소에서 규정에 맞는 보존식 용기를 이용하여 이를 적정온도에 잘 보관해야한다. 또한 정밀한 식중독 역학조사를 기반으로 사례를 분석하고 결과를 전파함으로써 유사한 식중독이 재발하지 않도록 해야 한다.

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is an under-recognized non-IgE-mediated gastrointestinal food allergy. The diagnosis of FPIES is based on clinical history, sequential symptoms and the timing, after excluding other possible causes. It is definitively diagnosed by an oral food challenge test. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of FPIES is frequently delayed because of non-specific symptoms and insufficient definitive diagnostic biomarkers. FPIES is not well recognized by clinicians; the affected infants are often mismanaged as having viral gastroenteritis, food poisoning, sepsis, or a surgical disease. Familiarity with the clinical features of FPIES and awareness of the indexes of suspicion for FPIES are important to diagnose FPIES. Understanding the recently defined clinical terms and types of FPIES is mandatory to suspect and correctly diagnose FPIES. The aim of this review is to provide a case-driven presentation as a guide of how to recognize the clinical features of FPIES to improve diagnosis and management of patients with FPIES.

Outbreaks of food poisoning due to the consumption of norovirus-contaminated shellfish continue to occur. Male-specific (F+) coliphage has been suggested as an indicator of viral species due to the association with animal and human wastes. Here, we compared two methods, the double agar overlay and the quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR)-based method, for evaluating the applicability of F+ coliphage-based detection technique in microbial contamination tracking of shellfish samples. The RT-PCR-based method showed 1.6-39 times higher coliphage PFU values from spiked shellfish samples, in relation to the double agar overlay method. These differences indicated that the RT-PCR-based technique can detect both intact viruses and non-particle-protected viral DNA/RNA, suggesting that the RT-PCR based method could be a more efficient tool for tracking microbial contamination in shellfish. However, the virome information on F+ coliphage-contaminated oyster samples revealed that the high specificity of the RT-PCR- based method has a limitation in microbial contamination tracking due to the genomic diversity of F+ coliphages. Further research on the development of appropriate primer sets for microbial contamination tracking is therefore necessary. This study provides preliminary insight that should be examined in the search for suitable microbial contamination tracking methods to control the sanitation of shellfish and related seawater.

Norovirus is a major cause of viral gastroenteritis and a common cause of foodborne and waterborne outbreaks. Norovirus outbreaks are responsible for economic losses, most notably to the public health and food industry field. Norovirus has characteristics such as low infectious dose, prolonged shedding period, strong stability, great diversity, and frequent genome mutations. Besides these characteristics, they are known for rapid and extensive spread in closed settings such as hospitals, hotels, and schools. Norovirus is well known as a major agent of food-poisoning in diverse settings in South Korea. For these reasons, nationwide surveillance for norovirus is active in both clinical and environmental settings in South Korea. Recent studies have reported the emergence of variants and novel recombinants of norovirus. In this review, we summarized studies on the molecular epidemiology and nationwide surveillance of norovirus in South Korea. This review will provide information for vaccine development and prediction of new emerging variants of norovirus in South Korea.

Cross contamination of foodborne virus via food utensils can be an important route of virus propagation. Bacteriophage MS2 was used as a surrogate for norovirus. The viability loss of bacteriophage MS2 attached to 4 kinds of metal surfaces was investigated at different temperatures and relative humidities (RH). The rate of viability loss was higher at $22^{\circ}C$ than at $10^{\circ}C$ and was higher at 75% RH than at 40% RH. The viability loss of the virus attached to copper or bronze surface was faster than on stainless steel or tin surface. Also the beef juice applied with the virus inoculum on the metal surfaces lowered the rate of viability loss. Although bronze was not as effective as copper in resulting the viability loss, it has been extensively used as a traditional Korean kitchen utensil and could be used more widely to decrease the viral poisoning at food processing environment and hospitals.

Norovirus (NoV) is a major cause of food poisoning outbreaks in Korea. Most NoV outbreaks originate from environmental contamination, but bivalves such as oysters are also important vectors. Oyster Crassostrea gigas contamination by NoV has been reported in Korea, but no quantitative analyses of NoV have been performed. We investigated the NoV concentration in 21 oyster samples from a Korean commercial oyster-growing area with confirmed fecal contamination from January to December 2012, using real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, we assessed the NoV concentration after heating to investigate the effects of heat treatment on NoV-infected oysters. In NoV-positive samples, the cycle threshold (Ct) values were 37.43-39.41 and 36.77-39.30, while viral concentrations were $8.97{\times}10^2-2.24{\times}10^2$ and $3.05{\times}10^2-7.47{\times}10^1$ copies/g for genogroups I and II, respectively. After heat treatment, NoV genogroup I decreased by 83.4%, 88.0%, 89.4% and 100% at $60^{\circ}C$, $68^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$, and $100^{\circ}C$, respectively, for 15 min, while genogroup II respectively decreased by 67.3%, 76.3%, 80.1%, and 89.8% under the same conditions.

바이러스성 식중독은 장염을 일으키는 원인 병원체 중 노로바이러스에 의해 흔히 발생하며 이외에도 아스트로바이러스나 로타바이러스에 의한 집단 설사 사례가 국내에서 보고된 바 있다. 노로바이러스는 식중독과 관련하여 특히 오염된 식수와 굴 등 어패류의 생식을 통한 감염 사례가 많이 보고되어 있으나 사람 간 전파도 흔히 일어나는 전염력이 매우 높은 바이러스이다. 국내에서는 1999년 이후 보고가 되고 있으며 최근 집단 급식과 관련된 대형 식중독 사례들이 보고되면서 학교급식이 사회적인 이슈로 대두되고 있다. 2000년 이후 질병관리본부는 바이러스성 설사의 국내 발생현황을 파악하기 위하여 전국의 17개 시도보건환경 연구원과 노로바이러스를 포함한 4종의 바이러스성 장염원인 병원체에 대한 전국적인 실험실 감시체계를 운영한 결과 바이러스성 병원체가 확인된 사례의 약 18%에서 노로바이러스가 검출되었고, 집단설사 사례에서는 대부분 노로바이러스가 원인병원체로 확인되었다. 또한 노로바이러스의 조기 검출을 위해 질병관리본부는 2004년 중 노로바이러스 유전자 검출 kit를 자체적으로 제작하여 이를 전국의 시도 보건환경연구원을 연계한 감시체계에서 적극 활용함으로써 노로바이러스 집단설사사례의 조기 검출이 가능하게 되었고 지역내 노로바이러스 검출율을 높이는데 기여하였다. 국립보건연구원은 2003년과 2006년에 발생한 대규모 노로바이러스 식중독 사례 이외에도 산발적으로 지속적으로 발생하는 사례들을 조기에 탐지하고 국내에서 검출되는 설사바이러스 유전형 분포양상과 새로운 유전자형이나 변이주를 조기에 검출하고자 전국적인 노로바이러스 실험실 감시망을 강화하여 운영하고 있으며, 집단설사 발생시 각 사례의 연관성을 신속하게 분석할 수 있는 실시간 분자역학적 유전자 분석체계를 단계적으로 도입하고 있다. 실험실 감시체계 운영과 함께 집단 식중독 유발 병원체의 효율적인 관리를 위해 질병관리본부는 노로바이러스를 포함한 설사 유발 병원체를 신고대상 병원체로 지정(2006.06.12)하여 병원체 검출시 보고하도록 하고 관련 지침을 마련하였다. 노로바이러스가 지정전염병 병원체로 추가로 지정됨에 따라 집단 사례 및 실험실 감시사업을 통해 검출되는 병원체에 대한 보고가 강화되고 전파 방지와 2차 감염 사례 감소에도 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료되며 전국의 실험실 감시망을 연결하는 국가 차원의 노로바이러스 실시간 분자역학적 분석체계 도입을 통해 노로바이러스 2차 감염을 줄이고 대규모 집단발병 및 유행의 조기 차단 효과를 가져올 수 있을 것이다.

During New year's day and Thanksgiving holiday, the 1339 Information Center in Gwangju and Jeonnam received an emergency medical situation and carried out the analysis as follows ; 1. The reason for the higher phone guidance(72%) of the hospital was based on the simple query for the pain control rather than emergency care. This was explained by the unfamiliar environment of the holiday movers. Pharmaceutical guidance(12.6%) in rural area was also given during the holidays. 2. The disease counselling(2.4%) and emergency treatment instruction(First Aid)(1.6%) decreased because of the small number of request for the diseases. This explained the decrease of the disease counselling. 3. The phone calls increased 8-13 times more than usual. Five-day holidays could have more emergency patients than three-day holidays. During New year's day and Thanksgiving day, the number of received phone calls was 6,444(25.7%) and this accounted for one fourth of the total number in 2007. 4. The number of the patients increased on New year's day and Thanksgiving day because most of the medical institutions and pharmacy were off duty. 5. The patients were centered in Internal medicine and pediatrics. This showed the food-borne diseases and air-borne infection such as common cold. 6. During Thanksgiving day, ophthalmologic patients having viral keratoconjunctivitis(Apollo eye disease) increased 8 folds than in New year's day. It was estimated from the continuous epidemic of Apollo eye disease. 7. There broke out the traffic accidents, food poisoning, infectious diseases, dermatological diseases due to seasonal and environmental changes during the holiday move.
