일반적으로 메주나 된장 등의 한국 전통발효식품에는 Aspergillus aryzae나 A. nigar 등과 같은 곰팡이독소를 생성하지 않는 균이 주로 서식하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 때로는 A. flavus나 A. paraciticus와 같은 유해곰팡이가 오염되어 발효나 저장 중에 aflatoxin이 축적될 수 도 있다. 따라서 이들 전통발효식품에서의 aflatoxin 생성균의 검색이 이들 식품의 안전성 확보를 위해 매우 중요하다고 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 면역분석기법을 이용하여 서부경남 시판메주 및 된장에서 aflatoxin 생성균을 검색하였다. 시료로는 서부경남 9개 지역으로부터 메주 10개와 된장 20개를 수집하였고, 수집된 시료로부터 메주에서는 24개 그리고 된장에서는 22개의 Aspergillus속 균을 분리하였다. 분리균들은 SLS 배지에 접종하여 $25^{\circ}C$에서 15일간 배양한 다음, 배양액을 ethyl acetate로 추출하고, DC-ELISA법으로 배양물중의 AFB$_1$을 측정하였다. 그 결과 메주로부터 분리된 균주 중에는 6균주가, 된장에서 분리된 균주에는 2균주가 AFB$_1$을 생산하는 것으로 확인되었다. 메주에서 분리된 6균주의 AFB1 생성량은 평균 54.6$\pm$38.7ng/ml 이었고, 된장에서 분리한 2균주는 평균 11.1 $\pm$ 8.6 ng/ml 의 AFB$_1$을 생산하였다. 그 중 분리균 No. M-5-4는 98.26 ng/ml의 AFB$_1$을 생산하여 가장 높은 생성능을 보였다. 아울러 TLC에 의해 aflatoxin생성능을 재확인 한 결과 DC-ELISA의 결과와 유사하였다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 식품의 안전성과 한국에서의 전통발효식품산업에의 HACCP 시스템 도입을 위해 발효식품에서의 유해곰팡이독소 생성균의 검색은 필요하다고 사료되는 바이다.

The 5th outbreak of trichinosis occurred in a mountainous area of North Vietnam in 2012, involving 24 patients among 27 people who consumed raw pork together. Six of these patients visited several hospitals in Hanoi for treatment. Similar clinical symptoms appeared in these patients within 5-8 days after eating infected raw pork, which consisted of fever, muscle pain, difficult moving, edema, difficult swallowing, and difficult breathing. ELISA revealed all (6/6) positive reactions against Trichinella spiralis antigen and all cases showed positive biopsy results for Trichinella sp. larvae in the muscle. The larvae detected in the patients were identified as T. spiralis (Vietnamese strain) by the molecular analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit III (cox3) gene.

Reproductive losses in a herd can be huge. Fetal reabsorption or undefined infertility often remain undetected. Routine herds monitoring for exposure, controlling the introduction of potential agent carriers, appropriate biosafety procedures, and vaccination where possible are together the best security against abortion and stillbirth inducing disease. For biosecurity of local farms, we performed antibody titers of abortion and stillbirth related diseases such as bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV), Neospora caninum, Toxoplasma gondii and Campylobacter fetus subsp venerealis. The blood samples were collected from 500 female Hanwoo over 1 year old of 100 farms in Jeonbuk eastern area. Champhylobater serological test was evaluated by the standard tube agglutination test (STAT) and other pathogen's antibodies were detected by indirect-enzyme linked immunoassay (I-ELISA). The seroprevalence of abortion and stillbirth inducing disease were BVDV 72.4%, IBRV 13.0%, N. caninum 1.2%, T. gondii 10.4% and C. venerealis 0.6%, irrespectively.

Specific polyclonal and/or monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to immunoglobulins (Igs) and their subunits have proved to be valuable tools in immunological research and in immunological assays. In this study, we developed and characterized MAbs against flounder serum Igs. To obtain the pure flounder serum Igs, mouse IgG (mIgG) was immunized to flounder. Flounder Igs were purified by using mIgG-agarose affinity column chromatography. The structure of purified flounder Ig was observed, on denatured SDS-PAGE, to be composed of two heavy chains (77 and 72 kd) and two light chains (28 and 26 kd). MAbs were produced by fusion of myeloma cells (SP2/0) with Balb/c mouse spleen cells previously primed with the flounder Igs. Finally, three hybridoma clones, FIM 511, FIM 519 and FIM 562 were established to recognize both 2 heavy chains, 26 kd of light chain and 28 kd of light chain, respectively. On the other hand, the flounder immune sera collected on the weekly basis were tested on ELISA and immunoblot analysis whether boosting effect is present in flounder humoral immune system. As a result, the secondary immune response in flounder was ascertained on ELISA, but not on immunoblot analysis. Further, we observed an alteration of serum protein levels following immunization. Our MAbs and basic information on flounder humoral immune system obtained in this study will be helpful to control and monitor the efficiency of fish vaccines and therapeutic process of flounder diseases.

In this study, a biosensor was developed to rapidly diagnose the swine sarcoptic mange (Sarcoptes scabies var. suis). The ELISA was modified to reduce the processing time for rapid diagnosis. The biosensor consists of a biological reaction part, and a measurement and control part. The biological reaction part was designed for using micro-pumps and valves for fluid transportation, and the measurement control part composed of a photodiode, a light-emitting diode fur light measurement, and a microcomputer to implement assay A polystyrene covet was used as a reaction chamber. Signal output was read as the rate of change in optical density at 645nm. Eighteen pigs diagnosed with sacroptic mange and 19 control pigs were tested. Fifteen sacbies-infested pigs showed positive results ($83.3\%$ sensitivity). Sixteen control pigs showed negative results ($84.2\%$ specificity). The system could execute a diagnosis cycle in about 45 min. The results suggest that this biosensor is useful for the rapid diagnosis of swine sacroptic mange.

We investigated a small-scale serological survey to screen tissue-parasitic helminthiases of North Koreans as one of research programs for re-unification of Korea. Soil-transmitted helminthiases were found highly prevalent among North Korean residents at the border with China. ELISA using 4 tissue-parasitic helminth antigens was applied to 137 residents living in Cheongjin-shi, Hamgyeongbuk-do, North Korea and 133 female refugees in South Korea in 2004-2005. Among a total of 270 samples, 31 (11.5%), 25 (9.3%), and 11 (4.1%) were positive for specific IgG antibodies to antigens of Clonorchis sinensis, Taenia solium metacestode, and sparganum, respectively. The overall positive rate was 21.5%; 38.2% in males and 15.8% in females. The present finding suggests that tissue parasites, such as C. sinensis, T. solium metacestode and sparganum are highly prevalent in some limited areas of North Korea. These foodborne tissue-parasitic helminthiases should be considered for future control measures of parasitic diseases in North Korea.

효소에 의한 단백질분해가 유청단백질의 항원성의 저하에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위한 기본연구로서, 유청단백질의 가수분해특성을 조사하고 competitive inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(cELISA)에 의한 항원성의 변화를 검토하였다. 유청단백질의 가수분해는 chymotrypsin, trypsin, pancreatin, 그리고 Aspergillus oryzae유래의 protease를 각기 4시간 동안 행하였다. TNBS(trinitrobenzensulfonic acid)법에 의하여 측정한 유청단백질의 가수분해도(DH)는 chymotrypsin이나 trypsin을 처리한 경우$(5.05{\sim}11.47)$보다 Aspergillus oryzae유래의 protease 및 pancreatin을 처리한 경우$(15.67{\sim}20.20)$가 훨씬 높게 나타났으며, 각 효소의 처리전에 열처리($75^{\circ}C$, 20분)나 pepsin의 처리를 한 경우에 대체로 약간 높게 나타났다. High performance size exclusion chromatography(HPSEC)에 의하여 분자량분포를 조사한 결과, 가수분해물에 따라 10kDa 이상의 polypeptide가 $12{\sim}36%$ 정도 존재하였고, 평균분자량은 $4,252{\sim}9,132$ dalton, 평균길이는 아미노산 $38{\sim}83$개로 나타났다. 또한 쓴맛은 형성되지 않았다. SDS-PAGE의 결과 처리구에 따라 분자량 14.2kDa 이상의 polypeptide가 일부 존재하였으나 native 유청단백질은 대부분 가수분해에 의하여 제거되었음을 확인하였다. 토끼 항WPI항혈청에 의한 cELISA로 검토한 유청단백질 가수분해물의 monovalent 항원성은 효소처리에 의하여 약 $10^{-1.7}{\sim}10^{-4.9}$배 또는 그 이하로 저하되었으며 대체로 가수분해가 많이 일어난 분해물은 그 항원성이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 각 처리구내에서는 열 및 pepsin의 전처리후 다음 효소 분해한 유청단백질 가수분해물(CDP, TDP, PDP, ODP)의 경우 그 항원성이 가장 낮았다. 그중에서도 pancreatin 가수분해물(PDP)의 경우 항원성이 거의 상실된 것으로 나타났다.

As previously reported, an immunoglobulin M (IgM) monoclonal antibody (MAb) B6.1, specific for a cell wall B-l,2-mannotriose, was protective against vaginal infection due to Candida albicans when mice were treated with the antibody. In this study, the role of neutrophil was examined in the protective effect of MAb B6.1 against vaginal infection. To deplete neutrophils, mice were given intravenously rat anti-mouse neutrophile MAb RB6-8C5 prior to intraperitoneal administration of MAb B6.1 to these mice. The mice were examined for antibody in their reproductive tract. By an ELISA, MAb B6.1 was found in the vaginal homogenates, but no antibody was detected in vaginal lavage materials. The neutropenia was induced by a single dose of the anti-neutrophil antibody, but lymphocytes were also partially depleted. The protective effect of MAb B6.1 was decreased when mice pretreated with MAb RB6-8C5 were given the anti-Candida antibody before challenge with C. albicans yeast cells intravaginally. These results show that neutrophils are involved in the MAb B6.1 protection against Candida vaginal infection.
