수영만에서 서식하고 있는 해양세균의 분포 및 생태학적 특성을 조사하기 위하여 수영만에서 해양세균의 시${\cdot}$공간적 분포 양상의 변화 및 조사기간동안 수영만에서 분리된 해양세균중 우점속의 균체 지방산 조성을 조사하였다. 조사기간동안 연구 해역의 총균수와 생균수의 분포는 각각 $10^7\~10^8/m\ell$와 $10^4\~10^6\;cfu/m\ell$ 범위였으며, 총균수는 표층과 저층간에 큰 차이를 보이지 않았지만, 생균수는 저층의 경우 동계에서 하계로 갈수록 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 해양세균 총 303균주가 분리 동정되었으며, 그 중 Pseudomonas spp. $(30.4\%)$가 가장 많이 출현하였고, 그 다음으로 Acinetobacter spp. $(18.8\%)$, Vibrio spp. $(13.2\%)$, Flavobacterium spp. $(12.2\%)$, Bacillus spp. $(8.9\%)$ 등이 우점하였다. 수영만에서 분리된 해양세균 중 Gram 음성세균 중에서 가장 우점한 Pseudomonas속과 Gram 양성 세균중에서 가장 우점한 Baillus속 각각 5균주의 균체 지방산 조성을 조사한 결과 검출된 균체 지방산은 총 31종이었으며, Pseudomonas속에 비해 Bacillus속의 지방산 형태는 비교적 단순했다. 또한 Pseudomonas속의 균체 지방산에서는 단순불포화지방산이 높은 비율로 검출되었고 Bacillus속 에서는 쇄상지방산이 우점한 지방산 형태였다. 또한 Pseudomonas속에서 검출된 OHFA와 CFA는 Baillus속의 균체 지방산 조성에서는 전혀 검출되지 않았다. Pseudomonas속의 균체 지방산은$C_{16:1},\;C_{17:1},\;C_{18:1}\;and\;C_{16:0}$이 우점했고, Baillus속 세균들에서는 $C_{15:0}\;iso\;,\;C_{15:0}\;anteiso,\;C_{17:0}\;iso\;,C_{17:0}$가 많이 검출되었다.

Nineteen strains of bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria were isolated from 432 Kimchi samples, and identified by the comprehensive biochemical and morphological tests verifying their cellular fatty acid composition. Using partially purified bacteriocins from these isolates, their inhibitory activities against other lactic acid bacteria and some pathogens, and sensitivity to enzyme and heat treatments were tested. The isolates were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum (2 strains), L curvatus (2 starins), L brevis (2 strains), Enterococcus faecium (6 strains), Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides (1 strain) and Lactobacillus sp. (6 strains). The bacteriocins produced by E. faecium strains provided the broadest spectrum of inhibition, affecting against other Gram-positive bacteria including lactic acid bacteria and health-threatening bacteria such as Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes. The bacteriocins of Lactobacillus sp., L plantarum and L brevis strains were capable of inhibiting many strains of the lactic acid bacteria, whereas those of L curvatus and L mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides strains were only inhibitory to a few strains. Generally, the inhibitory activities of both E. faecium and Lactobacillus sp. strains were greater than those of other producer strains. The bacteriocins from the isolates were sensitive to several proteolytic enzymes, and those of L curvatus and L mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides were also sensitive to lipase and $\alpha$-amylase as well as to proteolytic enzymes. The bacteriocins from the strains of Lactobacillus sp. and a strain of L. brevis were resistant to autoclaving.

To investigate the effect of long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on breast cancer cell growth, estrogen-dependent MCF-7 human breast cancer cells were cultured serum-free DMEM media containing 0.5$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of differnet kinds of fatty acids; linoleic acid(LA), arachidonic acid(AA), eicosapentaenoic acid(EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid acid(DHA) and 1, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5and 1.0ng/ml 17$\beta$-estradiol as well as 10$\mu\textrm{g}$/mi insulin and 1.25 mg/ml delipidized bovine serum albumin for 3 days. Cell growth monitored by MTT assay was lower in DHA and EPA treatments as compared to LA treatment, but not with AA treatment. Estrogen concentrations at which cell growth was initially stimulated were 0.1ng/ml for LA and DHA treatments and 0.2ng/ml for EPA and AA treatments, but the degree of stimulation was 25~30% lower in DHA and EPA treatments than in LA treatment. Fatty acid analysis showed that each fatty acid in culture medium was well incoporated into celluar lipid. Protein kinase C activity of cells was most elevated in LA treatment from 2 to 8 hours of culture followed by DHA, EPA, and AA treatments. It is concluded that inhibitions of n-3 DHA and EPA on breast cancer cell growth as compard with n-6 LA is mediated via changes in membrane fatty acid composition reducing estrogen sensitivity and increasing protein kinase C activity.
