Enrofloxacin-colistin combination, widely used in Gram negative infections in veterinary sector, was investigated in terms of MIC and initial killing rate using E coli k 88ab, Salmonella typhimurium, Pasteurella multocida type A, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Staphylococcus aureus as test organisms. On the basis of MICs of enrofloxacin-colistin combination against the above bacteria, killing rates of the combination of enrofloxacin and colistin at the ratio of 5:0, 4:1, 3:2, 1:1, 2:3, 1:4 and 0:5, indicated high and rapid antibacterial acitivities against all but Staphylococcus aureus R-209, with the number of bacteria reducing to less than one percent within two hours. At the MIC of enrofloxacin or colistin, both antibacterials showed the highest killing rates during 2-4 hours against Gram negatives such as E coli K88ab,Pasteurella multocida type A and Bodetella bronchiseptica but allowed the regrowth of the same pathogens thereafter. On the while, the combination of two antibacterials at a fourth MIC resulted in high killing rate without bacterial regrowth during 24 hours, suggesting the synergistic antivacterial effects. The combination, however, did not show favourable activity against Gram negatime S typhimurium and Gram positive S aureus ergistic antibacterial activity against Gram negatime pathogens but also colistin showed LPS-neutraization, we could suggest the combination should provide clinically positive therapeutic armarium in Gram negative infections.

This study was investigated the antibacterial activities of Cirsium japonicum from extracts five regions(Chungnam, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Jeju and Jeonnam) extract against six food-borne pathogenes(Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica and Vibrio vulnificus) using the broth dilution and agar diffusion method. At concentrations between 0 and $750{\mu}g/mL$ the extracts showed an antibacterial effect against all tested bacteria. The antibacterial activities of Cirsium japonicum from Jeju and Gangwon are stronger than others. The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) values against the six bacteria ranged from 93.75 to $750{\mu}g/mL$. In time killing assay(cell growth curves), the tested bacteria inactivated upon exposure to the extracts for 24h. At the 24h exposure to the extracts, all bacteria were inhibited to over 70% for growth. In particular, Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella enterica and Vibrio vulnificus conveyed an inhibition of growth to almost complete. It is anticipated that Cirsium japonicum extracts may have greater potential as natural food preservatives.

There is increasing interest in the relationships between marine bacteria and red tide organisms. Some bacteria are known to kill red tide organisms, and may be responsible for accelerating the termination of red tides. Thus, certain algicidal bacteria have been proposed for the control of red tides. Meanwhile, many red tide organisms are known to feed on marine bacteria. The roles of marine bacteria and red tide organisms are therefore reversible. In Korean waters, the killing of red tide organisms by algicidal bacteria, and also the feeding of red tide organisms on marine bacteria have been extensively investigated. The findings of such studies may influence the conventional view of red tide dynamics, and also planktonic food webs. Here, we review the species and concentrations of algicidal bacteria that kill red tide organisms in Korean waters, as well as the ingestion rate and grazing impact of red tide organisms on marine bacteria. Furthermore, we offer an insight into the ecological roles of these 2 components in marine planktonic food webs.

본 연구는 차 카테킨인 EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate)에 의한 구강세균의 살균효과를 조사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 초기 세포밀도 $10^{7}$ cell/ml의 대상 세균에 대한 항세균 활성은 EGCG 1ml당 5mg에서 조사하였다. 선택 또는 복합배지상에서 집락생성단위(colony-forming unit, CFU)에 근거하여 EGCG의 항세균 활성은 농도에 비례하는 것을 확인하였다. Streptococcus mutans와 Streptococcus sobrinus는 5mg/ml의 EGCG에서 8시간 이내에 완전히 살균되었다. Lactobacillus acidophilus와 Lactobacillus plantarum도 동일한 조건에서 각각 2시간과 4시간 이내에 살균되었다. 2.5 mg/ml의 EGCG로 처리한 사람의 타액에서 유래하는 총 구강세균의 생존율을 BHI 고체배지상에서 조사하였으며, 총 구강세균은 10시간 이내에 완전히 살균되었다. MS 고체배지상에서 S. mitis and S. salivarius의 집락은 감소되었으며 배양 12시간 이내에서는 집락은 관찰되지 않았다. 그 결과, EGCG는 입냄새와 치석의 원인이 되는 구강세균을 살균시키고 충치를 예방하는 자연적이며 효과적인 물질임이 입증되었다.

A new approach for antimicrobial is based on the overproduction of reactive nitrogen species (RNS), especially; nitric oxide (NO) and peroxinitrite ($ONOO^-$-) are important factors to deactivate the bacteria. Recently, non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) has been frequently used in the field of microbial sterilization through the generation of different kinds of RNS/ROS species. However, in previous study we showed APPJ has combine effects ROS/RNS on bacterial sterilization. It is not still clear whether this bacterial killing effect has been done through ROS or RNS. We need to further investigate separate effect of ROS and RNS on bacterial sterilization. Hence, in this work, we have enhanced NO production, especially; by applying a 1% of HNO3 vapour to the N2 based APPJ. In comparison with nitrogen plasma with inclusion of water vapour plasma, it has been shown that nitrogen plasma with inclusion of 1% of HNO3 vapour has higher efficiency in killing the E. coli and different type of cancer cell through the high production of NO. We also investigate the enhancement of NO species both in atmosphere by emission spectrum and inside the solution by ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. Moreover, qPCR analysis of oxidative stress mRNA shows higher gene expression. It is noted that 1% of HNO3 vapour plasma generates high amount of NO for killing bacteria and cancer cell killing.

Hydrogen peroxide has been used in cleaning the piping of an advanced high-purity water system that supplies ultra-high purity water (UHPW) for 16 megabyte DRAM semiconductor manufacturing. The level of hydrogen peroxide-resistant bacteria in UHPW water was monitored prior to and after disinfecting the piping with hydrogen peroxide. Most of the bacteria isolated after hydrogen peroxide disinfection were highly resistant to hydrogen peroxide. However, the percentage of resistant bacteria decreased with time. The hydrogen peroxide-resistant bacteria were identified as Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus cereus, Alcaligenes latus, Xanthomonas sp. and Flavobacterium indologenes. The susceptibility of the bacteria to hydrogen peroxide was tested as either planktonic cells or attached cells on glass. Attached bacteria as the biofilm on glass exhibited increased hydrogen peroxide resistnace, with the resistance increasing with respect to the age of the biofilm regrowth on piping after hydrogen peroxide treatment. In order to optimize the cleaning strategy for piping of the high-purity water system, the disinfecting effect of hydrogen preoxide and peracetic acid on the bacteria was evaluated. The combined use of hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid was very effective in killing attached bacteria as well as planktonic bacteria.

In this study, the bactericidal activity of each extract from Sawa-wasabi (Wasabia japonica) root, stem and leaf against the fish pathogenic bacteria were examined. The main component related to bactericidal activity in Sawa-wasabi was well known to AlT. The Sawa-wasabi roots showed the highest AIT amount with 1.18 mg/g. Stems was 0.41 and leaves was 0.38 mg/g. All of them showed bactericidal activity against 2 strains of Vibrio hollisae, V. anguillarum, and 2 strains of Edwardsiella tarda, but weak effect against Staphylococcus capitis. The Sawa­wasabi leaves showed the strongest bactericidal activity with minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) of 156.3mg of dry weight/mL against 2 strains of V. hollisae, V. anguillarum and 2 strains of E. tarda. The roots and stems showed a little weak bactericidal activities with 312-1,250mg of dry weight/mL against them. These results suggest that certain components besides AIT in Sawa-wasabi are affective in killing fish pathogenic bacteria.

1996년 7월 마산만의 해수를 0.8 $\mu$m filter에 여과한 여과액과 f/2배지에서 배양한 P. micans와의 혼합배양액에서 P. micans를 사멸시키는 해양세균을 분리하였다. 분리균의 형태학적 및 생화학적 검사와 균체지방산을 분석하여 동정한 결과 Pseudomonas 속으로 동정되어 Pseudomonas sp. LG-2로 명명하였으며, 그 살조특성을 조사한 결과는 아래와 같다. Pseudomonas sp. LG-2의 개체수와 배양여과액의 농도가 높을수록 P. micans의 사멸효과가 높게 나타났다. $1.3\times10^5,\;1.3\times10^6$ cells/ml의 농도로 접종한 시험관의 P. micans는 급격히 감소하여 배양 7일 후에는 $10^2$ cells/ml 이하로 사멸되었다. 또한, 배양석과액의 최종농도가 $30\%$일 경우에는 급격히 감소하여 배양 3일 후 거의 사멸하였다. Pseudomonas sp. LG-2의 성장시기에 따른 배양여과액의 사멸효과는 잠복기의 경우 P. micans의 성장에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았으나, 대수증식기 중기의 배양여과액은 접종 5일 후 P. micans의 개체수를 1/2로 감소시켰으며, 정상기의 배양여과액은 접종 후 급격히 감소시켜 배양 3일 후 대부분 사멸시켰다. Alexandrium tamarense, Prorocentrum micans, Scrippsiella trochoidea, Gymnodinium sanguineum, Cochlodinium polykrikoides의 5종의 적조원인 편모조류에 대한 Pseudomonas sp. LG-2의 살조특이성은 P. micans와 S. trochoidea에 살조효과를 나타내었다.
