Bacteriostatic activity of secretory immumoglobulin A (SIgA) in human and bovine colostrums on enterotoxigenic type Salmonella was tested in the tissue culture medium. SIgA was used in $0.1{\sim}5.0mg/m{\ell}$ concentration with or without the addition of egg lysozyme tested for theirs bacteriostatic activites. 1. Bovine SIgA rich fraction with a large amount of $IgG_1$-dimer could be prepared from bovine colostrum of Holstein cows by anion exchange chromatography using DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B. 2. Human SIgA appeared to be the most bacteriostatic effect for all varieties of Salmonella in a range of $0.5{\sim}1.0mg/m{\ell}$ Bovine SIgA showed a marked bacteriostatic effect increased by increasing the concentration. Bovine IgG had not show bacteriostatic effect against both enterotoxigenic type Salmonella. Egg lysozyme as well as bovine SIgA also showed a marked bacteriostatic effect increased by increasing the concentration. 3. When the growth inhibition of human SIgA was tested by adding egg lysozyme with time interval, egg lysozyme showed bacteriostatic effect as compared with control. But human SIgA and adding with lysozyme showed slight the bacteriostatic effect. 4. When the growth inhibition of bovine SIgA was tested by adding egg lysozyme with time interval, all treatment against S. enteritidis showed bacteriostatic effect as compared with control In the case of S. typhinwrium, egg lysozyme showed a marked bacteriostatic effect as compared with control.

In the previous paper, we reported that the bacteriostatic effect of condensed phosphate. The present study was intended to observe influence of various environmental factors on the bacteriostatic effect of condensed phosphates in the laboratory media, in order to get the information on the possibility to use the phosphate as food preservative. Bacteriostatic effect of sodium polyphosphate was not reduced by the heating at 100 for 1 hour, but it was considerably decreased by heating at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and the phosphate sensitivity of bacteria was increased by freezing and heating. On the other hand, the strong bacteriostatic activity of condensed phosphate was observed below pH 6.5 in nutrient broth culture, and the activity was decreased by the addition of $CaCl_2$, KCl and $MgSO_4$.

According to the traditional chinese herbal Cuscuta japonica Choisy and C. australis R.Be (original plant of Semen Cuscutae in Korea) have been used to cure pimple. In order to prove their bacteriostatic effects against Propionibacterium acnes, we performed the micro broth dilution method. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of C. japonica juice was 27.3 mg/ml, but C. australis juice showed no effect. The MIC of water extracted C. japonica seed and Wontosa and Bupjetosa were $960\;{\mu}g/ml$. The MIC of both water and ethanol extracts of C. australis seed was $9240\;{\mu}g/ml$. But ethanol extracts of C. japonicaseeds, Wontosa and Bupjetosa had no bacteriostatic activity. We also performed the disk diffusion test, C. japonica juice had prominent effect. Water extracts of C. japonica seed, Wontosa and Bupjetosa showed bacterio-static effect in 10 mg/ml, and C. australis seed in 10 mg/ml. The ethanol extract of C. japonica seed, Wontosa and Bupjetosa, and C. australis seed showed bacteriostatic effect in 20 mg/ml.

5.7-Dibromo-8-hydroxyquinolinyl-N-ethylcarbamate, one of the carbamate derivative which are generally used as insecticide, was newly synthesized. Its physical properities were determined and chemical structure was identified by means of I.R., nmr in addition to elemental analysis. The yield of addition, using triethylamine as catalyst, 5.7-dibromo-8-hydroxyquinoline and isocyanate was better than that of condensation of 5.7-dibromo-8-hydroxyquinoline with carbamoylchloride. The present organic synthesized compound showed the bacteriostatic action on salmonella typhi, escherichia coli and pseudomonas aeruginosa, but no otherwise effect of contraction of rabbit's ileum in the concentration of $100 \mu g/ml$.

Condensed phosphates have been used in various meat products to enhance the water holding capacity, to improve texture and to prevent the development of off flavors and off odors. This study was intended to observe the effects of poly - and pyrophosphate on the growth of sanitary indicative bacteria and food poisoning bacteria. The bacteriostatic effect of poly - and pyrophosphates against Gram positive bacteria was much stronger than that of against Gram negative organisms. The effective inhibitory concentration of sodium polyphosphate on the growth of bacteria was varied by species such as $0.3\%$ to Staphylococcus aureus, $0.9\%$ to Salmonella, and more than $1.0\%$ to Escherichia coli in nutrient broth. When Staphylococcus aureus suspension was treated with $0.5\%$ sodium polyphosphate at $35^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, the release of UV-absorbing substances from the organism was confirmed. However no significant effect was observed in Escherichia coli under the similar condition. When alaska pollack fillets were dipped in $ 3.5\%$ sodium polyphospahate at $2^{\circ}C$ for 1 min. prior to freezing, the viable cell count and coliform MPN's of the frozen product were decreased with the range of 30 to $50\%$ in comparison with those of control.

Metallo-${\beta}$-lactamase (MBL) can hydrolyze all ${\beta}$-lactams except monobactams and frequently coexists with various antibiotic resistance genes such as aminoglycoside resistance, sulfonamide resistance gene, etc. Therefore, the effective antibiotics against infections by these bacteria are markedly limited or can't even be found. We tried to search in-vitro antimicrobial combinations with synergistic effects for a VIM-2 type MBL producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa, isolated from clinical specimen. On the selection of antibiotic combinations with synergistic effects, we performed a one disk synergy test, modified Pestel's method, in agar without aztreonam (AZT). The bacteriostatic synergistic effects of this tests were scored as $S_1$ (by susceptibility pattern in agar without antibiotics), $S_2$ (by the change of susceptibility in agar with or without antibiotics) and $S_3$ ($S_1$ + $S_2$) and was classified into weak (1 point), moderate (2 points) and strong (3 points) by $S_3$ score. Subsequently, we carried out the time-killing curve for the antibiotic combinations with the strong synergistic bacteriostatic effect. One VIM-2 type MBL producing P. aeruginosa confirmed by the PCR showed all resistance against all ${\beta}$-lactams except AZT, aminoglycoside and ciprofloxacin. In the one disk synergy test, this isolate showed a strong bacteriostatic synergistic effect for the antibiotic combination of AZT and piperacillin-tazobactam (PIP-TZP) or AZT and amikacin (AN). On the time-killing curve after six hours of incubation, the colony forming units (CFUs/mL) of this bacteria in the medium broth with both combination antibiotics were decreased to 1/18.7, 1/17.1 of the least CFUs of each single antibiotics. The triple antibiotic combination therapy including AZT, PIP-TZP and AN was shown to be significantly synergistic after 8 hrs of exposure. In a VIM-2 MBL producing P. aeruginosa with susceptibility for AZT, the triple antibiotic combination therapy including AZT, PIP-TZP and AN may be considered as an alternative antibiotics modality against the infection by some MBL type. But the antimicrobial combination therapy for many more MBL producing isolates is essential to know as soon as possible for the selection of effective treatment against the infection by this bacteria.

This study was investigated to evaluate the potential of Stewartia koreana Nakai as an oral healthcare material. The inhibitory effects of extracts on the biofilm formation and fimbriae genes expression of Porphyromonas gingivalis were determined by minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC), biofilm biomass staining, SEM, and qRT-PCR analysis. The S. koreana Nakai branch was extracted into 70% ethanol, and bacteriostatic MIC of extracts against P. gingivalis were 0.6 mg/ml. In P. gingivalis cultures treated with 0.2-2.0 mg/ml of extract, biofilm production rate was significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner. The morphology of treated and untreated samples was observed by SEM, and cell aggregation and biofilm were only observed in those treated with extract. Subsequently, qRT-PCR analysis showed that the mRNA expression on fimbriae genes fimA and fimB was suppressed in a concentration-dependent manner. Based on these results, it can be suggested that S. koreana branch extract has the potential to be used as naturally derived oral healthcare material because of its bacteriostatic action and inhibition of P. gingivalis biofilm formation.
