The present study was conducted to investigate the incidence of pneumonic lesions with special regard to enzootic pneumonia and the microbiology of pneumoic lungs from 544 slaughter pigs during the period from October 1995 to September 1996. The incidence of enzootic pneumonic lesion was 76.3% (41s/s44) and pleurisy was detected from 7.9% of slaughter pigs. Seasonal prevalence of pneumonic lesions in slaughter pigs were in order of prevalence of 82.9% in spring, 76.8% in winter, 74.8% in autumn and 69.0% in summer, respectively. Pasteurella multocida, Streptococcus sp, Str suis, Corynebacterium sp, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Hemophilus parasuis, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected in order of prevalence from 16.9%, 15.9%, 7.5%, 6.0%, 1.4%, 1.0% and 0.5% of 415 pneumonic lungs, respectively. P multocida were susceptible to oxytetracycline, polymyxin-B, streptomycin, and vancomycin, while the majority of them were resistant to amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, kanamycin, and penicillin-G. Str suis were susceptible to amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalothin, penicillin-G, although the majority of them were resistant to erythromycin, oxytetracycline, streptomycin, vancomycin. A pleuropneumoniae were susceptible to ampicillin, and cephalothin, but the majority of them were resistant to oxytetracycline.

Antimicrobial resistance and multi-drug resistance patterns have been carried out on total of 210 isolated of Salmonella spp. and pathogenic E. coli isolated from food poisoning patients on January through December 2012 in Incheon, Korea. The highest percentage of antibiotics resistance was found to the following antimicrobial agents: tetracycline 43.8%, ampicillin 34.8%, nalidixic acid 23.8%, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim and chloramphenicol 12.4%, and ampicillin/sulbactam 11.4%. The highest percentage of resistance was 37.5% to ampicillin for Salmonella spp. and 59.0% to tetracycline for pathogenic E. coli. Overall the multidrug resistance rates of 1 drug was 26.2%, 2 drugs 9.0%, 3 drugs 9.5%, 4 drugs 7.1%, and 5 or more drugs 12.46%. The multi-drug (MDR) strains to four or more antimicrobial agents among the resistant organisms were quite high: 15.9% and 22.1% for Salmonella spp. and pathogenic E. coli, respectively. The study implies that limitation of unnecessary medication use is pertinent in order to maintaining the efficacy of drugs.

The study was designed to determine the estrogenic effect of some penicillins on endocrine function in adult Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes). Vitellogenin (Vtg) produced in male fish has been used for a biomarker to study endocrine disrupters. $17\beta-estradiol\;(E_2)$ was used a positive control that was induced Vtg in male fish. Result of total protein qantification and ELISA for female and male fish were exposed to $17\beta-estradiol$ 10ng/ml for $3\sim5$ days. As a result, male fish exposed to amoxicillin respectively appeared 0.75, 0.23, 8.21 and $9.36\%_{\circ}$ of 1, 10, 100 and 1000 ppm respectively, that value was elevated compared with control male fish. Male fish exposed to ampicillin respectively appeared 1.85, 4.68, 0.85 and $39.59\%_{\circ}$ of 1, 10, 100 and 1000 ppm respectively, that value was elevated compared with control male fish. This study is one of the first reports suggesting potential endocrine disruption of some penicillins in aquatic ecosystem. These results suggest that vitellogenin and estrogen receptor induction patterns alter in male medaka treated with selected estrogenic compounds, and that these results may be useful molecular biomarkers for screening estrogenic EDCs (endocrine-disrupting chemicals) in the shortest possible time.

Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) may cause diarrhea and enterotoxemia in adult and young livestock, leading to problems in the production and management of farms. Four hundred fecal samples were collected from 25 goat farms located in Gyeongsangbuk-do Province in the Republic of Korea. Sixteen C. perfringens strains were isolates from fecal samples, and the isolates were identified as type A (n=11) and type D (n=5). Additionally, ${\alpha}$- and ${\varepsilon}$-toxin genes were detected in 16 and 5 strains by PCR, respectively, and the enterotoxin gene was presented in 2 strains. The antibiotic susceptibility test was performed using the disk diffusion method and E-test method. In the disk diffusion method, ampicillin (n=16) and chloramphenicol (n=15) were highly susceptible to 16 C. perfringens isolates. In the E-test method, ampicillin, amoxicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and meropenem were susceptible to more than 14 of 16 C. perfringens isolates. This study indicates that administration of antibiotics such as ampicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and meropenem can prevent and treat C. perfringens infections in goats.

본 연구는 마늘추출물의 병원성 세균에 대한 항균효과를 검증하기 위한 목적으로 시행된 실험연구이다. 항균효과의 대조 항생제로서 Ampicillin $10{\mu}g$(BBL)을 사용하였다. 실험은 2013년 11월과 2014년 1월로 두 차례에 걸쳐 진행하였다. Kirby-Bauer의 disc diffusion method에 따라 감수성을 측정하였고 CLSI에서 제시한 판독기준에 따라 감수성 여부를 판독하였다. 연구결과, 생마늘은 추출법과 관계없이 Ampicillin $10{\mu}g$에 비해 항균효과가 높게 나타났다. 반면 흑마늘은 제조법과 추출방법과 관계없이 4종의 균주에서 저항성을 발현하였다. CLSI의 감수성 판독기준에 따르면 S. aureus와 E. coli에 Ampicillin $10{\mu}g$은 강력한 항균효과를 발현한 반면, 모든 균주들이 흑마늘 추출물에는 저항성을 발현하였다. 다만, 15일의 자연숙성발효한 흑마늘의 에탄올 추출물은 S. aureus와 E. coli에서 성장저지환이 각각 8 mm와 7 mm로 나타나 항균효과의 가능성을 발견하였다는 점에서 본 연구의 의의가 있다하겠다. 향후 마늘의 천연식품보존제 개발 가능성을 검증하기 위해서 흑마늘의 다양한 추출법을 활용한 항균효과에 대한 반복 연구를 제언한다.

Besides the benefits of antimicrobial agents in the control of various infectious diseases, widespread and prolonged use of particular antimicrobial agents has brought about the increase of drug-resistant strains in a community and the profound changes in the pattern of infectious diseases. In Korea, there are some remote villages where no clinics and drug stores are available and the residents in those areas are assumed to have fewer chances to contact with antimicrobial agents. In the present study, the differences in susceptibilities to 14 antimicrobial agents between the isolates from rural areas(R) and Seoul National University Hospital(SNUH, H) were studied. The isolates and their numbers were Staphylococcus aureus, R;55, H;68), Enterococci(R;28, H;30), Escherichia coli(R;40, H;40), Enterobacter aerogenes(R;25, H;21) and Klebsiella pneunoniae(R;58, H;67). Minimal inhibitory concentrations(MIC's) of penicillin, ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalexin, tetracycline, oxytetracyline, doxycycline, minocycline, gentamicin, kanamycin, streptomycin, erythromycin, troleandomycin and co-trimoxazole were determined by agar dilution method. I. Comparison of MIC's and resistant strain proportions between isolates from SNUH and rural areas. MIC's and/or resistant strain proportions of the isolates from SNUH were significantly higher than those of the isolates from rural areas in the cases of 1. S. aureus to doxycycline, streptomycin and kanamycin. 2. E. coli to penicillin, ampicillin, carbenicillin, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, streptomycin, kanamycin, erythromycin and co-trimoxazole. 3. E. aerogences to carbenicillin, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, streptomycin, kanamycin, genaamicin and co-trimoxazole. 4. K pneunoniae to penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, doxycycline, monocycline, streptomycin, kanamycine, gentamicin and co-trimoxazole. However, the mean MIC and resistant strain proportion of S. aureus to tetracycline were higher in isolates from rural areas than in those from SNUH and Enterococci showed no differences in susceptibilities to the antimicrobial agents between isolates from rural areas and from SNUH. Therefore, in general, differenes in susceptibility to these antimicrobial agents between the isolates from rural areas and SNUH were remarkably greater and broader in gram negative enteric bacteria. II. Multiple drug resistance pattern. Patterns and incidences of multiple drug resistance were studied with penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, cephalexin, gentamicin, streptomcin, kanamycin and co-trimoxazole in Enterococci, E. coli, E. aeroges and K. pneumoniae. There appeared significant differences in the incidence of multiply drug-resistant strains and multiple drug resistance patterns between the isolates from SNUH and rural areas in Enterococci, E. coli, E. aerogenes and K. pneumoniae. However, there was no difference in the incidence of multiply drug-resistant strains between isolates of S. aureus from SNUH and rural areas but the pattern of multiple resistance of the SNUH strains of S. aureus was diverse, while that of the rural strains was predominantly confined to penicillin-tetracycline combination. The incidence of multigly drug-resistant strains and diversity of their patterns were the highest in E. coli strains isolated from SNUH and there were no multiply drug resistant strrains in Enterococci and K. pneumoniae strains isolated from rural areas. The number of drug-resistance determinants was also different between the isolates from rural areas and SNUH. Most of the multiply drug-resistant strains of E. coli, E. aerogenes and K. pneumoniae isolated from SNUH were resistant to more than 3 kinds of antimicrobial agents, most frequently to ampicillin, tetracycline and streptomycin, while multiply drug-resistant strains from rural areas were resistant to 2 kinds of antimicrobial agents among ampicillin, tetracycline and streptomycin. With drug-resistant E. coli strains, resistance to tetracycline which was used most widely since 1951 was most frequently involved as a part of mutliple drug-resistance, followed by resistance to ampicillin and streptomycin. This strongly suggests that emergence of drug-restant strains in a community is directly dependent on the selective pressure exerted by the antimicrobial agent used. III. Cross resistance. Cross resistance of bacteria was studied among tetracycline penicillin, aminoglycoside and macrolide derivatives by analyzing correlation coefficients of sucseptibilities using the least square method. In this study, there were high correlations among the susceptibilities to related derivatives. It appears that the relatively low correlations in susceptibilities present in some cases are due to intrinsic resistance of E. aerogenes to penicillin, Enterococci to aminoglycoside and E. coli E. aerogenes and K. pneumoniae to macrolide derivatives.

목 적 : 요로감염은 소아의 감염 질환 중 호흡기 감염에 이어 두번째로 흔한 질환이며, 소아에서 가장 흔한 세균성 질환으로 적절한 치료가 시행되지 않을 경우 심한 신손상이 초래되어 소아기의 고혈압 중 60%가 이로 인해 발생하고 전체 신부전 환자의 15-20%가 소아기의 만성 신우신염으로 10-15년 후에 신기능을 잃게된 경우가 있다. 따라서 조기 진단과 적절한 치료 및 재발 방지가 중요하다. 그러나 최근 항생제의 개발, 항생제의 남용 및 부적절한 선택에 따른 특정 항생제 내성균들의 출현 및 증가로 요로감염 원인 균주의 항생제 감수성에 변화를 가져와 치료를 위한 항생제의 선택이 어려워지고 있다. 이에 저자들은 소아 요로감염증의 주요 원인균과 항생제의 감수성을 조사하여 적절한 항생제 선택에 도움을 주고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2002년 1월부터 2003년 12월까지 삼성제일병원 소아과에 입원하여 요세균 배양 검사상 단일 집락수가 $1.0{\times}10^5/mL$ 이상으로 배양되어 요로감염증으로 진단된 5세 이하 환아 69명을 대상으로 성별 및 연령별 발생 빈도, 방사선 소견, 주요 원인균과 원인균에 따른 항생제 감수성을 후향적으로 조사하였다. 결 과 : 1) 요로감염증 환아 69례에서 남아 52례(75.4%), 여아 17례(24.6%)로 남녀비가 3.05 : 1이였고 영아기에는 남아가 많았으나 이후에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 연령별로는 1세 이하가 61례(88.4%), 1-2세가 5례(7.2%), 2세 이상이 3례(4.4%)로 1세 이하가 가장 많았다. 2) 전체 환아 69례의 원인 균주는 그람 음성 균주가 68주(98.5%)로 대부분이었고 그중 E. coli가 54주(78.3%)로 가장 많았다. 그 외의 균주로는 Klebsiella 8주(11.6%), Pseudomonas 2주(2.9%), Proteus 2주(2.9%), Enterobacter 1주(1.4%), Morganelle 1주(1.4%), Enterococcus 1주(1.4%) 순이었다. 3) 69례 중 신장 초음파 검사는 68례에서 시행하여 7례(10.3%)에서 이상 소견을 보였고, 배뇨성 방광 요도 조영술은 44례에서 시행하여 8례(18.2%)에서 역류가 관찰되었다. 4) 그람음성 균주에 대한 항생제 감수성은 imipenem(98.4%)이 가장 높은 감수성을 보였고 다음으로 amikacin 96.9%, aztreonam 87.5%, cefepime 87.5%, cefoxitin 84.4%, ceftriaxone 84.4% 순으로 나타났다. 반면에 tobramycin 75.0%, gentamicin 70.3%, TMP/SMX 57.8%, ampicillin/sulbactam 28.1%, ampicillin 23.4%은 낮은 감수성을 보였다. 결 론 : 본 연구 결과에서는 amikacin과 cephalosporin계열의 항생제가 높은 감수성을 보였고 반면에 ampicillin과 aminoglycoside 계열은 감수성이 낮아지고 있음을 나타내었다. 따라서 요로감염에 경험적 초기 치료제로 ampicillin, gentamicin이 사용되고 있고 예방적인 치료제로 TMP-SMX이 권장되고 있으나 본 연구 결과에 의하면 이들 항생제의 내성률이 높게 나타나므로 요로감염의 치료에 있어 경험적 항생제 선택에 재평가가 이루어져야 한다.
