Developing of antibiotic, bacterial meningitis is one of the disease of high mortality. Especially in case of gram negative, pneumococal meningitis, they have high mortality and neurological disorders after treatment. Main symptoms of bacterial meningitis are fever, headache, vomit, neck stiffness and coma etc. In oriental medicine, acute feverish infectious diseases have been treated as wenbing(溫病). We can divide wenbing into 8 kinds. Bacterial meningitis is included as Chunwen(春溫), fengwen(風溫) in the sight of similarity on the symptoms and falling ill. Comparing with CVA, we have too rare cases of treating bacterial meningitis with oriental medicine. A case of sequelae of bacterial meningitis patient diagnosed as Chunon, pungon showed prominent improvement by herb med and acupuncture treatment etc.

Burkholderia glumae (bacterial grain rot), Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (bacterial leaf blight), and Acidovorax avenae subsp. avenae (bacterial brown stripe) are major seedborne pathogens of rice. Based on the 16S and 23S rDNA sequences for A. avenae subsp. avenae and B. glumae, and transposase A gene sequence for X. oryzae pv. oryzae, three sets of primers had been designed to produce 402 bp for B. glumae, 490 bp for X. oryzae, and 290 bp for A. avenae subsp. avenae with the $63^{\circ}C$ as an optimum annealing temperature. Samples collected from naturally infected fields were detected with two bacteria, B. glumae and A. avenae subsp. avenae but X. oryzae pv. oryzae was not detected. This assay can be used to identify pathogens directly from infected seeds, and will be an effective tool for the identification of the three pathogens in rice plants.

The gut microbiota is involved in the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and is now recognized as a regulator of many diseases. Although germ-free mouse models are the standard for microbiome studies, mice with antibiotic-induced sterile intestines are often chosen as a fast and inexpensive alternative. Pathophysiological changes in the gut microbiome have been demonstrated, but there are no reports so far on how such alterations affect the bacterial composition of the uterus. Here we examined changes in uterine microbiota as a result of gut microbiome disruption in an antibiotics-based sterile-uterus mouse model. Sterility was induced in 6-week-old female mice by administration of a combination of antibiotics, and amplicons of a bacteria marker gene (16S rRNA) were sequenced to decipher bacterial community structures in the uterus. At the phylum-level, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria were found to be dominant, while Ralstonia, Escherichia, and Prauserella were the major genera. Quantitative comparisons of the microbial contents of an antibiotic-fed and a control group revealed that the treatment resulted in the reduction of bacterial population density. Although there was no significant difference in bacterial community structures between the two animal groups, β-diversity analysis showed a converged profile of uterus microbiotain the germ-free model. These findings suggest that the induction of sterility does not result in changes in the levels of specific taxa but in a reduction of individual variations in the mouse uterus microbiota, accompanied by a decrease in overall bacterial population density.

Diarrhea is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in children worldwide. Rotavirus is the most common cause of infectious diarrhea both in developed and developing countries. However, bacterial causes such as Salmonella typhi and Vibrio cholerae still play an important role in developing countries. Newly developed vaccines for rotavirus, S. typhi, and V. choleae are highly immunogenic and safe in children.

The role of atypical bacterial infection in the pathogenesis of asthma is a subject of continuing debate. There is an increasing body of literature concerning the association between the atypical bacteria such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) and asthma pathogenesis. Moreover, many studies investigating such a link have been uncontrolled and have provided conflicting evidence, in part due to the difficulty in accurately diagnosing infection with these atypical pathogens. This manuscript will review the relationship between M. pneumoniae infection and asthma pathogenesis.

목적: 소아에서 급성 인두편도염의 원인균의 분포를 조사하고자 하였다. 방법: 2010년 3월부터 2011년 3월까지 급성 인두편도염 환자의 인두 후부에서 검체를 채취하여 원인바이러스와 세균을 분석하였다. 결과: 615명의 환자 중, 세균이 분리된 경우는 40례(6.5%), 바이러스가 검출된 경우는 310례(50.4%)이었다. 분리된 세균 중 A군 사슬알균이 31례(77.5%)로 가장 많았고, 검출된 바이러스 중에는 adenovirus가 가장 많았으며(203명; 65.5%), 그 다음으로 rhinovirus (65명; 21.0%), enterovirus (43명; 13.9%) 순이었다. 기침, 콧물, 결막염은 바이러스 감염 환자에서, 연구개의 발적과 점상출혈은 세균 감염 환자에서 더 많았다. 결론: 급성 인두편도염 환자에서 바이러스 감염이 세균 감염에 비해 많았으며 임상양상에 차이를 보였다. 따라서 급성 인두편도염 환자에서 무조건적인 항생제의 사용을 피하고 임상양상의 차이를 감안하여 치료를 결정해야 하겠다.

축엽세균병으로 알려진 피해뽕나무에서 진균인 Fusarium spp. 균이 분리되어 이를 구명하고 그 피해정도를 조사한 결과 1. 신소썩음증상은 세로로 긴 갈색의 병무늬가 시간이 경과할 수록 암갈색으로 변하고 흰곰팡이가 생기며, 축엽세균병증상은 잎이 말리고 신소에 수침상의 병반과 bacterial ooze가 보인다. 그러나 시간이 경과하면 구분이 어렵다. 2. 신소썩음증상의 피해율은 7.5%, 축엽세균병의 피해율은 4.4%였다. 3. Fusarium spp. 균의 분리는 신소썩음증상에서 높았고, Pseudomonas균의 분리는 축엽세균병 증상에서 많았다. 또한 병원성도 같은 경향을 보였다. 4. 수원 등 3지역 모두에서 부위별 병원성 Fusarium spp. 균의 분리율은 병반에서 30cm 부위에서 보다 병진전부위에서 더 높았다. 5. 수원 등 3지역 모두에서 개량뽕의 신소썩음증상 피해가 가장 많았다. 그러나 청올뽕의 신소썩음증상 피해는 조사 품종중에 가장 적었다.

Equine piroplasmosis (EP) is caused by Babesia caballi and Theileria equi infection. We investigated antigen and antibody of EP in horses in the Republic of Korea during 2016-2017. Antigen and antibody of T. equi was detected 0.06% (1/1,650). Phylogenetic analysis of 18S rRNA revealed that the T. equi was highly homologous with the strains from China, Mongolia, and Spain. Two Theileria spp. were also detected and highly homologous with T. buffeli, T. luwenshuni, and T. orientalis.

당근 세균잎마름병은 세계적으로 가장 중요한 병에 속한다. 지난 10년 전 국내에서 처음 발견됨으로써 당근 생산에 큰 위협이 되는 병으로 간주되었다. 원인균으로 Xathomonas hortorum pv. carotae (Xhc)이며 본 연구는 제주도 당근재배지 토양에서 이 병원균을 분리 동정하고자 수행하였다. 분리한 세균 중 인공배지에서 균총의 형태가 당근 세균잎마름병균과 유사한 세균균총을 분리하여 선발하였다. 또한 이들 선발된 세균들을 대상으로 DNA 염기 서열과 NCBI 자료를 통해 몇몇 분리 세균이 Xhc으로 동정되었다. 게다가 이들 세균을 당근 잎에 접종하였더니 당근 세균잎마름병의 전형적인 병징이 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 제주도 토양내 Xhc의 존재 가능성을 시사하고 앞으로의 당근 세균잎마름병 방제 수단을 강구하는 데 매우 필요한 자료로서 가치가 있다고 본다.

In Korea the most important plant industry is the rice-growing but she has not yet attained self-sufficiency with regard to rice which is the basic food of Korean. In the past, various measures of increasing rice production have been tried with some success but the increasing rate of did not show the sufficient result. Judging from experiences, disease control may be the most important factor which has influence on increasing of rice production in Korea. During the past 60 years three periods divided by the transition of rice diseases were noted, and especially the recent transition attracted much attention . That is, sheath blight and stripe which were minor diseases in the past have promptly spread all over the country and caused heavy losses to rice plant, and also local outbreak of bacterial leaf blight and dwarf were noticed. Various environmental factors are related to such transition of rice disease. Above all, cultivated varieties susceptible to these diseases, increase of application of nitrogenous fertilizer, earlier transplanting and density of transplanting are considered to be lucre closely related to the development of these diseases and successive development of blast. On the other hand. application of forage fungicides such as organic mercury compounds specific to blast contributed to reduce prevalent area if blast in spite of wide spread of susceptible varieties and increase of application of nitrogenous fertilizer. These facts were confirmed by Korean investigators At the present which various diseases to control coexist in the same region, no one variety resistant to all of these diseases is provided and cultural practices for the control of these diseases often do not produce sufficient yield of rice. it is emphasized that a role of pesticides is very great.
