P. gingivalis를 단독면역하거나 또는 Fusobacterium nucleatum 선면역 후 P. gingivalis 항혈청을 각각 얻어냈다. 두 종류의 항혈청이 P. gingivalis biofilm을 침투해 들어가는 능력을 confocal laser scanning microscope를 이용하여 비교 감증하였다. 항혈청의 P. gingivalis에 대한 avidity index도 측정하였다. 결과적으로 F. nucleatum의 선면역은 P. gingivalis 특이 항혈청에 대해 세균성 biofilm의 침투능력을 저하시키고, 동일한 세균에 대한 avidity도 감소시켰다.

In this study, the porous glass media was utilized as biomass carrier, and the optimum characteristics of this new media in fixed bed biofilm process were investigated. The characteristics of media considered here are a void volume fraction, a specific surface area, and surface characteristics of media. The effect of surface roughness and material could be clearly demonstrated by the fact that the porous glass media showed a good potential for biofilm development. This might results from the fact that biofilm is initially formed in the surface cavities of the media is protect from the shear effect. Therefore, the microcolonies are not readily detached by the fluid shear. In the steady state, biofilm formation along the packing bed depth was different from media to media. The specific area was also an important factor for the attachment of microorganism on the media surface. The specific area was also an important factor for the attachment of microorganism on the media surface. In the case of porous glass media, about $100m^2/m^3$ was enough to obtain a good organic removal efficiency The organic removal efficiency could be improved by increasing the void volume fraction in the reactor, at least 80% was required to obtain a high removal efficiency and prevent clogging. From the analysis of kinetics study, the yield coefficient, Y, was 0.42 mgMLSS/mgSBOD, endogenous respiration coefficient, ke, was $0.12day^{-1}$ and substrate removel coefficient of Mckinney. km, was $16.8hr^{-1}$ for the porous glass media G-2

Purpose: The goal of this study was to develop and validate a standardized in vitro pathogenic biofilm attached onto saliva-coated surfaces. Methods: Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) strains were grown under anaerobic conditions as single species and in dual-species cultures. Initially, the bacterial biomass was evaluated at 24 and 48 hours to determine the optimal timing for the adhesion phase onto saliva-coated polystyrene surfaces. Thereafter, biofilm development was assessed over time by crystal violet staining and scanning electron microscopy. Results: The data showed no significant difference in the overall biomass after 48 hours for P. gingivalis in single- and dual-species conditions. After adhesion, P. gingivalis in single- and dual-species biofilms accumulated a substantially higher biomass after 7 days of incubation than after 3 days, but no significant difference was found between 5 and 7 days. Although the biomass of the F. nucleatum biofilm was higher at 3 days, no difference was found at 3, 5, or 7 days of incubation. Conclusions: Polystyrene substrates from well plates work as a standard surface and provide reproducible results for in vitro biofilm models. Our biofilm model could serve as a reference point for studies investigating biofilms on different surfaces.

Bacterial strains were isolated from biofilms formed on glass slides submerged in seawater in Dae-Ho Dike. Eight strains showing fast attaching ability were selected and identified. Their exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing ability and EPS properties were characterized. Based on Microlog System, 4 among the 8 strains were identified as Micrococcus luteus and the rest were Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus megaterium,, Staphylococcus saprophyticus and Agrobacterium vitis. A, vitis was reidentified as Sulfitobacter pontiacus based on 16S rDNA sequence data. The amount of water-soluble EPS produced by the 8 strains ranged from 0.114 to 1.329 g$.$l$\^$-1/ and the productivity was negatively correlated with the cell biomass. The molecular weight of the produced EPS ranged from 0.38 to 25.19$\times$10$\^$4/ Da. Glucose and galactose were ubiquitous sugar components. Mannose, ribose, and xylose were also major sugar components. The molecular weight and composition of the EPS showed strain-specific variation.

점점 더 강화되는 수질기준, 연료 및 에너지비용 증가 등으로 경제성, 소요부지의 최소화, 운전의 용이성, 슬러지 발생의 최소화, 높은 처리효율을 지니는 폐수처리시스템의 개발은 시급한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 난분해성물질을 함유한 오 폐수에 대해 대기노출형 백색부후균 생물막을 이용하여 생물막의 침지형태, 체류시간, 재순환비, 모듈회전수에 따른 유기물 처리 특성을 연구하였다. HBC 링 여재에 부착된 백색부후균 생물막을 대기중에 완전히 노출하여 운전시 침지형 포기조건과 거의 비슷한 제거율을 나타냈다. 대기노출형의 최적조건은 HRT 3$\sim$4 hr, 재순환비 6$\sim$10 Q, 모듈회전수 0.5$\sim$2회/min이며, 이때 유기물 제거율은 COD$_{Cr}$ 65.0$\sim$69.9%, NBDCOD 70.4$\sim$72.7%, BOD$_5$ 88.8$\sim$90.1%, SS 84.2$\sim$90.4%를 나타냈다. 또한 본 연구에서 BOD$_5$의 유출수 평균농도는 8.9 mg/L로 중수도 수질기준 BOD$_5$ 10 mg/L이하를 만족하였으나, NBDCOD의 경우 평균농도가 29.6 mg/L로 중수도 수질기준 20 mg/L보다 높은 것으로 나타났다.

부착성 미생물을 이용하여 기체상 오염물질을 여과 방식으로 처리하는 생물 공정은 기체상의 흐름 특성과 공정 인자간 관련성이 매우 복잡하게 작용하는 특징을 가진다. 본 연구는 기체상 공정의 특성으로 미세한 변화에도 반응이 급변하는 현상과 물질간 반응관계의 중요성을 고려하여 일반화된 plug flow계 반응조의 공정 분석 도구로 활용 가능한 1차원 동적 수치해석 모델을 개발하였다. 개발 모델은 물질수지 원리를 기초하여 확산을 단순화하고 물질간 경쟁, 상승, 억제 반응 등 상호 반응관계를 반영하여 구성이 용이하도록 하였다. 개발 모델의 적용성 평가는 저속과 고속으로 구분된 BTX 제거 실험에 대하여 보정과 검정 절차로 수행되었다. 개발 모델은 고속 조건의 toluene을 제외하고 모든 조건과 항목에서 상관계수($R^2$) 0.79 이상에서 실험 결과를 재현하였다. 개발 모델은 연속흐름(plug flow)계로써 기체상-생물막의 일반화된 공정에 적용할 수 있는 것으로 평가되었으며 복잡하고 다양한 공정 실험에서 설계 인자 분석 및 효율 평가에 유용한 도구로 사용될 수 있다.
