This study was carried out to examine that pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin has applicabilities which are market milk and dairy products. The stability of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine apo-lactoferrin and the change of its antibacterial character has been studied under various method for pasteurization (LTLT; 65$^{\circ}C$ / 30min., HTST ; 75$^{\circ}C$ / 15sec., UHT ; 135$^{\circ}C$ / 3sec.) and pH Values (pH 2.0, pH 4.0, pH 6.8). The ehated samples were assayed for minimal bacteriocidal concentrations (MBCs) and bacteriocidal effect against E. coli. The results obtained were summarized as follows: After fractionation of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactofeerin by gel filtration. several peptide fractions were found that had strong antibacterial activity. SDS-PAGE showed that the one of these fractions with strong antibacterial activity, which had a molecular mass a range of 30∼33KDa. The MBCs for pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin fraction No. 2 against E. coli required to cause complete inhibition of growth varied within the range of 200∼400 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, depending on heat treatments and pH conditions. The peptide fraction No. 2 showed strong bacteriocidal activity against E. coli at LTLT and HTST treatments under acidic pH conditions. and was reduced activity at UHT treatment under pH 6.8 condition.

Free fatty acids (FFAs) are known to have bacteriocidal activity and are important components of the innate immune system. Many FFAs are naturally present in human and animal skin, breast milk, and in the bloodstream. Here, the therapeutic potential of FFAs against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is demonstrated in cultures and in mice. Among a series of FFAs, only oleic acid (OA) (C18:1, cis-9) can effectively eliminate Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) through cell wall disruption. Lauric acid (LA, C12:0) and palmitic acid (PA, C16:0) do not have this ability. OA can inhibit growth of a number of Gram-positive bacteria, including hospital and community-associated MRSA at a dose that did not show any toxicity to human sebocytes. The bacteriocidal activities of FFAs were also demonstrated in vivo through injection of OA into mouse skin lesions previously infected with a strain of MRSA. In conclusion, our results suggest a promising therapeutic approach against MRSA through boosting the bacteriocidal activities of native FFAs, which may have been co-evolved during the interactions between microbes and their hosts.

Lactobacillus sake는 냉장온도(2-4 ℃)이하에서도 성장이 가능한 통성혐기성균으로서, sausage와 진공포장육의 제조에 관여하며, 동양에서는 청주의 발효와 김치의 숙성에도 큰 비중을 차지하는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 그러나 L. sake는 이들 식품의 제조시 과도한 발효의 진행으로 식품을 변질시켜 가치를 저하시키기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 L. sake의 생육을 효과적으로 저지하는 박테리오신을 생산하는 미생물을 김치로부터 분리하여 Lactobacillus sp. Oh-B3로 명명하였다. 최대의 박테리오신을 생산하기 위한 분리균의 배양조건은 초기 pH를 8.0으로 조절한 MRS배지에 접종하여 25℃에서 24시간동안 배양했을 때 최대의 박테리오신을 생산하였다. 분리균의 배양액을 원심분리하여 균체를 제거한 상등액에 ammonium sulfate를 첨가한 뒤, 얻어진 침전물을 투석하고 여과한 뒤, -20℃에 보관하며 조박테리오신 용액으로 사용하였다. 분리균이 생산하는 박테리오신은 pH 2.0-9.0의 넓은 범위에서 비교적 안정한 활성을 나타내었으며, 그람음성균에 대해서는 항균활성을 보이지 않았고 일부 그람양성균에 대해서만 활성을 나타내었다. 조박테리오신 용액에 각각의 단백질 분해효소를 처리한 후 박테리오신의 잔존활성을 측정한 결과 분리균이 생산하는 박테리오신은 대부분의 단백질분해효소에 의해 활성이 제거되었다. 그리고 조박테리오신 용액을 열처리를 한 뒤 잔존활성을 측정한 결과 분리균이 생산하는 박테리오신은 100℃에서도 매우 안정하였으며, autoclave를 하여도 50％ 이상의 활성이 유지되었다. 일반적인 박테리오신과 마찬가지로 분리균이 생산하는 박테리오신은 bacteriocidal action을 하는 것으로 관찰되었다.

Miconazole was estimated to have a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.78 ㎍/㎖ against the methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The antibacterial activity of miconazole against MRSA was bacteriostatic in cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth, but bacteriocidal in saline solution. The anti-MRSA activity of miconazole did not show a significant change under the susceptibility-testing conditions such as various inoculum sizes, pHs, or cations (Ca/sup ++/ or Mg/sup ++/) which was added to the medium. However, the anti-MRSA activity of miconazole was completely suppressed by lipophilic a-tocopherol (50 ㎍/㎖), but definitely not by water-soluble ascorbic acid.

박테리오신의 일종인 Leucocin A를 생산하는 효모의 제작을 위하여 114 bp 길이의 종지코돈을 포함하는 Leucocin A 유전자를 합성하여 효모운반체인 pYDl에 클로닝하였다. 이렇게 제작된 재조합 DNA를 효모세포에 형질전환시켜 Leucocin A를 생산하는 형질전환 효모세포를 제작하였다. 형질전환 효모는 고초균(Bacillus subtilis)에 대해 항균활성을 나타냈다. 형질전환 효모로부터 분리한 플라스미드를 주형(template)으로 하고 Leucocin A에 특이적인 primer들을 이용하여 PCR 반응을 행한 결과, 효모에 도입된 Leucocin A 유전자를 확인할 수 있었다. 이 연구의 결과로 부패하기 쉬운 식품들의 보존성을 향상시키거나, 내성이 생긴 병원균의 생육을 저해하기 위한 항생제로 사용할 수 있는 박테리오신을 산업적으로 대량생산할 수 있는 효모세포를 제작하였다.

The present study was to investigate in vitro antimicrobial effects of propolis against six different fish bacterial pathogens, Aeromonas hydrophila, Edwardsiella tarda, Vibrio vulnificus, V. parahaemolyticus, A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida, A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida) using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bacteriocidal concentration (MBC) tests. In the results, propolis exhibited antimicrobial activity against all bacteria used in the present study, but there was no marked difference in bacterial species except Vibrio species. Collectively, propolis was thought to be an usefulness antimicrobial substance for controlling bacterial diseases in the fish industry.

The therapeutic activity of LB20304a was examined on experimental respiratory tract infection (RTI) caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae DT-S in mice. A single oral dose of LB 20304a (1.2mg/mouse) showed a rapid bacteriocidal activity in lung tissue at 4,7 and 24h after administration of drug. The in vivo activity of LB20304a was comparable to that of ciprofloxacin against K. pneumoniae infection, although in vitro MIC of LB20304a was four-fold higher than that of ciprofloxacin.

Water-insoluble chitosan with molecular weight of 2,000,000, 580,000, 80,000, and 40,000 and more than 90% of degree of deacetylation were prepared to test antibacterial activity of chitosan against a pathogenic bacteria, methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). As experimental method, the Shake Flask Method (SFM) and Modified Shake Flask Method (MSFM) were applicated. The anti-microbial activity of chitosan/acetic acid aqueous solution is consistent irrespective of Mw of chitosan. MIC value of SFM measurement was 0.2 ppm, and MIC value of modified SFM measurement was 25 ppm. But MIC value of chitosan/acetic add solution and chitosan treated cotton filter paper was equally 5 ppm. The antibacterial activities of chitosan were different in different test measurements employed. The antibacterial activities of chitosan/acetic acid solution and chitosan treated cotton filter paper were also different. Therefore, it needs to be pointed out that the test measurements of anti-microbial activity have some problems.

This study was carried out to determine the inhibitory effect of garlic juice against Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella flexneri. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Virio. parahaemolyticus which are food pathogenic bacteria and Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus. lactis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides which are lactic acid bacteria. An aqueous extract of garlic was bacteriocidal against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in all concentrations (0.1∼2.5(w/v)%) tested in this experiment. Especially 0.5(w/v)% garlic juice inactivated completely E. coli, S. typhimurium, S. flexineri, V. parahaemolyticus and 1.0(w/v)% garlic juice perfectly reduced P. aeruginosa, S. mutans. Generally, the experiment result indicate that garlic juice restrains the growth of the pathogenic bacteria better than the lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, garlic has potential for the preservation of processed foods.
