The hollow stalk, caused by Erwinia carotovors var. carotovora, is probaly the most devastating disease to burley tobacco in Korea. There are two modes of infection to tobacco plants: the primary infection along the plant stem from soil and the secondary one from the topped end of plants. The secondary infection rate could be reduced to almost zero by applying an antibiotic, streptomycin sulfate(400 ppm solution), right after topping.

A total of 130 of Staphylococcus strains isolated from various clinical specimens of admitted patients of a university hospital with systemic or severe cases of infection. All of these were tested for the antimicrobial susceptibility to 11 drugs of common use. The hospital strains isolated showed higher frequency of resistance against four drugs including gentamicin, penicillin, erythromycin, kanamycin but amikacin, cephalothin, streptomycin were effective. And also 47.7% of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus were isolated from the clinical patients. However, isolated Escherichia coli strains showed higher frequency of resistance, but two drugs, tobramycin and gentamicin were effective to them.

In this comparative study, the effects of temperature, pH, and bactericides on the growth of Erwinia pyrifoliae and Erwinia amylovora were investigated. The maximum temperature for the growth of both Erwinia species was estimated to be $36{\circ}C$. The maximum specific growth rates of E. pyrifoliae and E. amylovora were observed at $27{\circ}C$ and $28{\circ}C$, respectively, and no significant growth differences were shown at their optimum temperatures. However, at lower temperatures ranging from 12-$21{\circ}C$, E. pyrifoliae showed higher growth rates with doubling times shorter than those of E. amylovora. Distinct growth rates at these temperatures revealed that E. pyrifoliae is more cold-tolerant than E. amylovora. The optimum pH for the growth of both pathogens was 7.5 and growth was not seen at pH ${\le}$ 5.0 and ${\ge}$ 10.0. These results showed that the effect of pH on the growth of E. pyrifoliae and E. amylovora was similar. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of copper sulfate, oxolinic acid, streptomycin, and tetracycline, which inhibited growth of E. pyrifoliae and E. amylovora, were determined. The strains of both pathogens were able to grow at 0.08-0.32 mM copper sulfate, but not at higher concentrations. However, none of the tested strains grew in the presence of oxolinic acid (0.001 mM), streptomycin (0.1 mM), and tetracycline (0.01 mM) concentrations. These results suggested that all strains of both Erwinia species were sensitive to tested bactericides and indicated no occurrence of resistant strains of E. pyrifoliae in Korea.

The susceptibility of 536 isolates of Staphylococcus and 313 isolates of Streptococcus to a number of chemotherapeutics were studied. These organisms were isolated from bovine mastitis during 1973 and 1974. In addition to this, the rate of multiple resistance of 425 isolates of Staphylococcus and 164 isolates of Streptococcus, isolated in 1974, to the chemotherapeutics was analysed. The results obtained in this work were summerized as follows: 1. Staphylococcus and Streptococcus isolated in 1974 showed a higher resistance, with 3 exceptions of chemotherapeutics, than the isolates of 1973. 2. Staphylococcus isolated in 1973 and 1974 showed a higher susceptibility than Streptococcus. 3. The strains of Staphylococcus resistant to colistin were 39 strains (9.2%), to colistin and sulfisoxazole 33 (7.8%), to streptomycin, kanamycin, colistin and sulfisoxazole 20 (4.7%), and to penicillin, colistin and sulfisoxazole 18 (4.2%). 4. The strains of Streptococcus resistant to colistin were 17 strains (10.4%), to streptomycin, kanamycin, colistin and sulfisoxazole 13 (7.9%), to colistin and sulfisoxazole 11 (6.7%) and to penicillin, colistin and sulfisoxazole 11 (6.7%).

This study was accomplished to illuminate factors of contamination of microbes in the culture medium and effect of antibiotics on prevention of contamination in the medium when bovine follicular oocyte was matured, fertilized and developed in vitro. 1. When washed or unwashed semen diluted with TCM 199 was incubated for 24∼72hr, contamination was come out. 2. When diluted semen with TCM 199 which has penicillin, streptomycin, gentamycin, kanamycin or nystatin was incubated for 24∼72hr, contamination was not come out only in kanamycin. 3. When imported semen which was diluted in TCM 199 with penicillin, streptomycin, gentamycin, kanamycin or nystatin was incubated for 24∼72hr, contamination was not come out in all treatments. 4. When semen which was diluted in BO, CZB, Ham's F10 or TCM 199 was incubated for 24∼72hr, kanamycin showed no contamination in all treatments, but gentamycin showed contamination in CZB, Ham's F10 and TCM 199. 5. When the semen diluted in BO was moved at 24hr after incubation into BO and incubated for 72hr, contamination was not come out, but when it was moved into the TCM 199 and incubated for 72hr, contamination was come out at 48 to 72hr of incubation. 6. When the semen diluted in BO, BO＋BSA or BO＋FBS containing gentamycin, kanamycin or nystatin was incubated for 24∼72hr, the diluted semen in BO or BO＋BSA showed no contamination in all antibiotics but the diluted semen in BO＋FBS showed no contamination only in kanamycin. 7.The Pseudomonas cepacia, Serratia liquefaciens, Klebsiella pneumaniae was respectively isolated in the semen of A, B, and C bull and the microbes are highly affected by amikacin, tobramycin and kanamycin. 8. When bovine folicular oocyte was in vitro matured, fertilized and developed in the simple medium with kanamycin, 26.6% was developed to over 32cell stage embryo.

Eighty two bacterial strains have been isolated from five different soil and sewage samples by selective enrichment culture on m-toluate minimal medium. Two of these were identified as Pseudomonas capacia, one as P. putida, one as Yersinia intermedia, and one as Flavobaeterium odoratum. P. cepacia SUB37 appeared to carry plasmid superficially similar to TOL plasmid previously described in p. putida mt-2 and other two plasmids from Flavobacterium odorutum and Y. intermedia larger than that of p. putida mt-2. p. cepacia SUB37 was sensitive to streptomycin but resistant to rifampicin. P. cepacia SUB37 carrying plasmid metabolizes the hydrocarbons to benzoate and toluates via the corresponding alcohols and aldehydes. By the curing experiment, it appears that P. cepacia SUB37 carries TOL plasmid encoding for the enzymes responsible for the catabolism of toluene and xylene via benzoate and the toluates and then by meta pathway in the process of degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons. p. cepacia SUB37 degraded m-toluate rapidly to be very low level when it was fully grown.

Several bacteria and yeasts were isolated from soil and characterized for the development of functional probiotics which can be used as a livestock feed additive. From the soil, the microbial strains which have acid/bovine resistance, antibiotics resistance and high stability, were isolated. Most strains selected were very tolerable against acids and very stable in a broad range of pH. Some strains could survive 100% at pH 2.5. The growth of the strains was not affected in the presence of bile acid, pathogenic E. coli and several antibiotics such as tetracycline, nisin, kanamycin, streptomycin, ampicillin. Acidogenic capability test showed that all the strains can produce acids. The hydrolytic activities were analysed for amylase, protease, lipase and cellulase to decompose various organic compounds. All the strains were found to be gram negative, round type, non-kinetic and the color is yellow or white.

The semen collection process in the porcine is far from being a sterile procedure. Consequently, porcine ejaculates commonly contain bacterial contaminants. The aim of this study is to identify the bacteria in porcine semen and to find the antibiotics resistance of bacteria. Twelve porcine originating from four AI center were used to collect semen. Bacteria were identified by automated instrument for rapid organism identification system and bacterial sensitivities of 8 antibiotics were tested. The Bacterial contaminants of Staphylococcus genus(37.8%), Proteus genus(7.0%), Bacillus genus (6.1%), Pasteulla genus(5.7%), Acinetobacte genus(5.2%), Serratia genus(4.3%) and others(33.9%) were frequently isolated. However, amikacin showed higher antibiotic sensitivity than other antibiotics. General sanitation protocols can contribute partly to inhibit the bacterial contamination, with monitoring boar housing, semen collection areas and the extended semen. But, proper selection of preservative antibiotics by microbial sensitivities can minimize the influence of bacteria.
