약용식물의 추출물을 식품 제조시에 첨가제로 사용할 목적으로 4종류의 약용식물을 추출하여 각 식물의 기능성을 조사하였다. 골담초, 당귀, 목통, 초피의 나무 줄기를 물과 70% 에탄올로서 추출하여 동결 건조한 후 항균작용, 항산화작용 및 아질산염소거능을 조사하였다. 각 시료의 물과 에탄올추출물의 식중독세균에 대한 항균작용은 그람음성균인 Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella sonnei에 대하여 억제 작용을 나타내지 않았다. 그러나 골담초와 당귀의 에탄을 추출물은 2％ 이상의 농도에서 그람양성균인 Listeria monocytogenes와 Staphylococcus aureus의 증식을 억제하였다. 각 시료 물추출물의 전자공여능은 500ppm이상의 농도에서 모두 60% 이상의 전자공여능을 나타내었다. 각 시료의 에탄을 추출물은 목통과 초피가 300ppm에서 70% 이상의 전자공여능으로 물추출물보다 우수하였고 골담초는 물추출물과 비슷한 수준이었으며 당귀는 물추출물보다 낮은 전자공여능을 나타내었다. 각 시료 추출물의 아질산염소거능은 물추출 1,000ppm, pH 1.2에서 당귀 38%, 골담초 40%, 목통35%의 소거능을 나타내었으며 초피가 50%로서 가장 우수한 아질산염소거능을 나타내었다. 각 시료에탄을 추출물의 아질산염소거능은 당귀와 골담초가 물추출물보다 약간 낮은 소거능을 나타낸 반면에 목통과 초피는 물추출물보다 높은 아질산염소거능을 나타내었는데, 특히 초피는 1,000ppm pH 1.2에서 66%의 우수한 아질산염소거능을 나타내었다.

We investigated the effects of gamma irradiation on the microbiological, chemical and sensory qualities of bulgogi, a traditional Korean meat product. Gamma irradiation reduced the number of coliform bacteria and bacterial colonies counted in Salmonella-Shigella selective agar to a non-detectable level. Thermophillic microorganisms (mainly Bacillus spp.) in bolgogi refrigerated for 20 days were also significantly reduced by 3 log cycles by 2.5 to 7.5 kGy of irradiation, compared to the control. Electron donating ability and shear force of ready-to-cook bulgogi was not significantly affected by gamma irradiation. Irradiation increased the 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value. The irradiated, raw, ready-to-cook bulgogi had significantly higher scores in color and appearance than those of non-irradiated controls from sensory evaluation. The overall acceptance of cooked bulgogi had higher scores in non-irradiated or 2.5 kGy-irradiated bulgogi than the 5.0- or 7.5-kGy irradiated counterparts. In conclusion, irradiation at 2.5 kGy is recommended as a method to improve shelf-life, safety, and to achieve acceptable quality of ready-to-cook bulgogi without any adverse changes in the sensory characteristics.

Chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) gas is a neutral chlorine compound. $ClO_2$ gas was proven to effectively decontaminate different environments, such as hospital rooms, ambulances, biosafety level 3 laboratories, and cafeterias. In this study, to evaluate the effects of $ClO_2$ gas, bacteria of clinical importance were applied. Staphylococci, Streptococci and Bacillus strains were applied and Klebsiella, and others e.g., Escherichia coli, Shigella, Salmonella, Serratia were also done for the inhibitory analysis. Bacteria plates were applied with a hygiene stick, namely, "FarmeTok (Medistick/Puristic)" to produce $ClO_2$. $ClO_2$-releasing hygiene stick showed the very strong inhibition of bacterial growth but had different inhibitions to the bacteria above 96.7% except for MRSA of 90% inhibition. It is difficult to explain why the MRSA were not inhibited less than others at this point. It can be only suggested that more releasing $ClO_2$ should be essential to kill or inhibit the MRSA. B. subtilis, S. agalactiae, S. pyogenes, E. coli O157:H7, S. typhi (S. enterica serotype typhi) and S. marcesence were inhibited over 99%. This study will provide fundamental data to research growth inhibition by $ClO_2$ gas with bacteria of clinical importance value.

Drug interaction of a new antibiotic, methampicillin lysinate (MAL) with nine drugs were investigated using four species of gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The experimental results were as follows: 1. MIC of MAL were found to be decreased against E. coil when combined with mefenamic acid, probenecid, aluminium hydroxide gel or corticosteroids. The other drugs did not affect MIC of MAL against the same bacteria. 2. MIC of MAL were found to be increased against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538-P, 9441 when combined with mefenamic acid, aluminum hydroxide gel or dexamethasone acetate. The other drugs did not affect MIC of MAL against the same bacteria. 3. MIC of MAL were found to be increased against Shigella dysenteriae when either of the nine drugs was combined. 4. MIC of MAL were found to be increased approximately 2.5 times when combined with Streptokinase-Streptodornase or hydrocortisone and to be decreased approximately 2 times when combined with probenecid or dexamethasone against Salmonella typhi(type 2). It seems the other drugs do not affect the MIC of MAL against the same bacteria.

This study was carried out to isolate of causative agents from CMT-positive and mean somatic cell count(SCC) $\geq$500,000 cells/ml mastitic milk, and evaluate to antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates in Iksan branch area from January to November, 1996. 1. The CMT-positivity(SCC 500,000 cells/ml) of 610 heads was 36.2% (221), and of 2,373 quarter milks was 16.1% (383). 2. The Gram-positive isolates were 153 strains which was Staphylococcus sp (115), Micrococcus sp (18), Streptococcus sp (10), Listeria monocytogenes (5) and Enterococcus faecalis(5). 3. The Gram-negative isolates were 66 strains including E coli(14), Yersinia sp (13), Shigella sp(8), Enterobacillus sp(8), Cedecea sp(5), Pseudomonas aeruginosa(5), Proteus sp(5), Klebsiella sp(4), Salmonella sp(2), kluyvera ascorbate(1) and Tatumella ptyseos (1). 4. The Gram positive strains of isolates were moderately susceptible to T/s, Cp, Fd, Imp, Aug, Rif, Cft and Va. And the Gram negative strains of Isolates were moderately susceptible to T/s, Cp, Imp, Pi and Ti, In order. 5. Multiple antimicrobial resistant patterns were encountered 62 and 36 from Gram positive and negative isolates, respectively.

For many years, developmental and physiological differences have been known to exist between anatomic segments of the colorectum. Because of different outcomes, prognoses, and clinical responses to chemotherapy, the distinction between right colon cancer (RCC) and left colon cancer (LCC) has gained attention. Furthermore, variations in the molecular features and gut microbiota between right and LCCs have recently been a hot research topic. CpG island methylator phenotype-high, microsatellite instability-high colorectal cancers are more likely to occur on the right side whereas tumors with chromosomal instability have been detected in approximately 75% of LCC patients and 30% of RCC patients. The mutation rates of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes also differ between RCC and LCC patients. Biofilm is more abundant in RCC patients than LLC patients, as are Prevotella, Selenomonas, and Peptostreptococcus. Conversely, Fusobacterium, Escherichia/Shigella, and Leptotrichia are more abundant in LCC patients compared to RCC patients. Distinctive characteristics are apparent in terms of molecular features and gut microbiota between right and LCC. However, how or to what extent these differences influence diverging oncologic outcomes remains unclear. Further clinical and translational studies are needed to elucidate the causative relationship between primary tumor location and prognosis.

Shiga toxin (Stxs)-producing enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 are major causative agents of severe bloody diarrhea (known as hemorrhagic colitis) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) associated with extraintestinal complications such as acute renal failure and neurologic impairment in infected patients under 9 years of age. Extreme nephrotoxicity of Stxs in HUS patients is associated with severe outcomes, highlighting the need to develop technologies to detect low levels of the toxin in environmental or food samples. Currently, the conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or immunoassay is the most broadly used assay to detect the toxin. However, these assays are laborious, time-consuming, and costly. More recently, numerous studies have described novel, highly sensitive, and portable methods for detecting Stxs from EHEC. To contextualize newly emerging Stxs detection methods, we briefly explain the basic principles of these methods, including lateral flow assays, optical detection, and electrical detection. We subsequently describe existing and newly emerging rapid detection technologies to identify and measure Stxs.

Aeromonas spp., are Gram-negative rods that can cause infections in healthy and immunocompromised hosts. The clinical presentation of gastroenteritis varies from mild diarrhoea to shigella-like dysentery to severe cholera-like watery diarrhoea. Here, we report a case of acute hemorrhagic gastroenteritis in a newborn infant by Aeromonas caviae and its draft genome sequence. It is important to reduce the chance of incorrect isolate identification, which could lead to the exclusion of pathogenic Aeromonas spp., from routine laboratory identification in cases of diarrheal diseases. The genome sequence of A. caviae SVJ23 represents a significant step forward in understanding the diversity and pathogenesis, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance profile.
