The purpose of this study was the examination for presence of K99 antigen (K99), enterotoxigenicity, 0-groups, colicin and antibiotic susceptibility among E. coil isolated from calves and cows. A total of 49(18.7%) among 262 strains, isolated from 30(26.5%) out of 113 calves and cows, possesed K99, and thirty three of 49 $K99^+$ strains produced ST. Of the strains of diarrheal calf origin which less than 15 days old, a high correlation was observed between enterotoxigenic ability and K99: 92.3% of the $K99^+$ strains produced heat stable enterotoxin(ST). In O group typing of 33 $ST^+$ strains, they belonged to O20(48.4%), O8(9.1%), O9(6.1%), O139(6.1%), O149(6.1%), O101(3.0%), O115(3.0%), except six which were untypable or autoagglutinable. Of 262 E. coil isolates, 30 strains(13.3%) produced colicin and K99 were detected in 6 strains. One hundred eighty eight strains(71.8%) of 262 E. coil isolates were resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, streptomycin, tetracycline, alone or in combination thereof. One hundred and fourteen(60.6%) out of 188 drug resistance strains carried R factor($R^+$) which were transferable to the recipients by conjugation. Sixty five $R^+$ strains(57.0%) carried thermo-sensitive R plasmid.

In previous paper, it was reported that antibiotic substance such as tetracycline and streptomycin were produced by S'. albus subsp. and S'. globosus. And increase of mycelial growth of two strains, antibiotic production, and changes of pH range are extended to approximately 110-130 hrs in fermenting medium, there-after they decreased with culture period exception of pH range. Two Streptomyces spp. required commonly 4-5% starch as carbon sources and 1.5-2.0% soybean meal as nitrogen sources. However, 0.005-0.01M potassium phosphate dibasic, calcium carbonate (6mg/ml in S.albus subsp. and 2mg/ml in S. globosus), 0.01-0.03M, magnesium sulgate and 0.01M ferric chloride showed as optimal concentration for the growth of 2 strains. Mineral compoments such as zinc, manganese, cobalt, sodium and copper at the level of 10/sup -4/ -10/sup -6/M were observed. Especially, zinc ion showed toxicity to the growth of 2 strains at 0.005M. In relation with pH, there is a little difference in mycelial growth with cultural initial pH.

In order to develop a new starter culture for fermented milk, Lactobacillus fermentum LC272 was isolated from raw milk and its physiological characteristics were investigated. The vitamin $K_2$ concentration of L. fermentum LC272 was $184.94{\mu}g/L$ in Rogosa medium and $63.93{\mu}g/L$ in the reconstituted skim milk. The optimum growth temperature for L. fermentum LC272 was determined to be $40^{\circ}C$ and it took 24 h for the pH to reach 5.2 under this condition. L. fermentum LC272 was more sensitive to rifampicin relative of the other 15 different antibiotics tested, and showed most resistance to streptomycin. L. fermentum LC272 showed higher activities to leucine arylamidase and acid phosphatase. It was comparatively tolerant to bile juice and acid and displayed high resistance against Salmonella Typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus with rates of 82.9 and 86.3% respectively. These results demonstrated that L. fermentum LC272 could be an excellent starter culture for fermented milk with high levels of vitamin $K_2$ production.

The present study was conducted to investigate biochemical properties and antimicrobial drug susceptibilities of 57 strains of Pasteurella haemolytica (P haemolytica) isolated from pneumonic calves and goats in Youngnam province during the period from September 1989 to February 1991. P haemolytica was isolated from 95 of 142(31.7%) pneumonic calves of 1 to 6 months of age and from 9 of 24(37.5%) pneumonic goats of 2 to 10 months of age. Seasonal isolation frequency of P haemolytica in calves and goats varied from 16.6 to 35.7%, and it was higher in winter. The majority of biochemical and cultural properties of P haemolytica isolated from calves and goats were identical to those of the reference strains employed. All isolates were susceptible to ceftiofur, erythromycin, kanamycin, gentamicin, and chloramphenicol (MIC: <$25{\mu}g/ml$), some of them were resistant to amikacin, sulfadimethoxin, and streptomycin (MIC: >200IU or ${\mu}g/ml$).

The capsular serogroupes and drug susceptibility of 111 isolates of Pasteurella multocida from pigs with atrophic rhinitis and pneumonic lesions were investigated. Of the 111 P multocida isolates, 42 were from lung lesions, 47 from nasal turbinate lesions and the remaining 22 from the nasal swabs. P multocida isolates were typed for capsular serogroupes A by hyaluronidase inhibition of capsule and D by acriflavine auto-agglutination. Most isolates(64.9%) were type A, 23.4% were type D and the remaining 11.7% were untypable. Resistance to triple sulfa(97.3%) was most frequent, followed by resistance to tiamulin(71.2%), tylosin(56.8%), streptomycin(36.9%), and neomycin(36.0%). The majority of the organisms were susceptible in order of prevalence to baytril(100%), ampicillin(98.2%), linsmycin(97.3%), colistin(97.3%), cephalothin(94.6%), gentamicin(93.7%), amikacin(92.3%), tetracycline(91.9%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole(91.0%), and kanamycin(90.1%). No differences in drug resistance in relation to capsular serogroupes of P multocida and the origin of lesions were noted. A high prevalence of multiple drug resistance was observed and the most common resistant patterns were Sss, Tm, Ty(12.6%) and Sm, Sss, Tm, Ty(8.1%) patterns.

본 연구는 국내산 돈육의 Staphylococcus aureus에 대한 오염도와 항생제 내성 여부를 살펴보기 위해 실시되었다. 가공전의 원료육과 가공후의 포장육의 Staphylococcus aureus 에 대한 오염도를 비교해 본 결과 원료육에서 11.5%, 포장육에서 6.1%의 검출률을 보여 도축단계에서의 오염으로 판단된다. 돈육에서 검출된 Staphylococcus aureus의 항생제별 내성은 Penicillin 및 Ampicillin에 각각 93.3%로 매우 높은 내성률을 나타내었으며, Tetracycline에서 60.0%, Tobramycin 20.0%, Erythromycin, Streptomycin에 각각 13.3%의 내성률을 보였다. 2001년 전국 6개 도시의 일반인의 비강으로부터 분리한 S. aureus의 tetracycline에 대한 내성률은 8.2%로 돈육에서 검출된 S. aureus의 내성률과 비교하였을 때 7배 이상 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 생산성을 향상시킬 목적으로 동물에게 항생제를 처방하고, 사료에 항생제를 첨가하여 균 자체의 내성율을 높이고 이런 균들이 인간에게 전파되어 내성균의 생성 루트가 될 수 있기 때문에 향후 돈육의 사료에 첨가하는 최초 항생제의 사용량부터 지속적인관리가 필요하리라 판단된다.

균주개량 방법의 일환으로 electrofusion 법을 이용하여 protease 화성, lipase 활성, 내열성, 내산성 등이 우수한 L. bulgaricus와 bacteriocin을 생산하는 L. acidophilus 간의 융합조건을 검토하였다. Electrofusion에 의해 생성된 융합주는 식별하기 위해 streptomycin(2mg/ml)과 lincomycin(5$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml)에 내성을 나타내는 L. bulgaricus 변이주이와 kanamucin (600$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml)에 내성을 나타내는 L. acidophilus 88 변이주를 분리하였다. Electrofusion을 500V/cm, 100mses(49phms, 2300 capacotance)에서 수행했을 때 가장 융합이 잘 일어났으며 전기장의 세시와 시간이 증가할수록 융합요율이 현저히 감소하였다. 2가 양이온은 대체적으로 융합효율을 감속시키는 경향을 나타내었으나 1mM MgCl$_2$에서 융합 효율이 약간 증가하였다. PEG 400을 elec-trogusion buffer에 30%되도록 첨가했을 때, 가장 양호한 융합효율을 나타내었으며 그 이상에서는 오히려 융합 효율이 감소하였다. Electrofusion법과 PEG 매개에 의한 융합법의 융합 효율을 비교한 결과, 거의 비슷한 융합 효율을 나타내었으나 electrofusion 법과 PEG매개에 의한 융합법을 혼합하였을 때 가장 양호한 융합 효율을 나타내었다.

The Korean sawmills have recently recognized the importance of prevention of fungal discoloration due to increased losses in revenue. Before establishing integrated control strategies of fungal discoloration, more complete knowledge about causal organisms is needed. As a first step, we initiated a through survey of fungi colonizing commercially important softwood(Pinus dens flora, Pinus koraiensis, and Pinus radiata) logs and lumber in Korea. In this paper we report results obtained from Japanese red pine(Pinus densiflora) log study. In summer 2000, fungi were isolated from Japanese red pine logs in storage, and identified based on their cultural and morphological characteristics. A total of 595 fungi were isolated, representing 21 genera and 30 species. Mold fungi, mostly Trichoderma species, were the most frequently isolating fungi, representing more than half of all isolates. Dematiaceous fungi represented approximately one fifth of the isolates, and Rhinocladiella atorvirens was the most abundant in all samples. Opiostoma species represented 7% of all isolates from cores planted on malt extract agar(MEA) and the incidence of these species doubled with the addition of streptomycin and cycloheximide to MEA. The results indicate that Japanese red pine sapwood is susceptible to colonization by a variety of fungal species. As a result, control strategies that concentrate on one fungus may have limited success because of interference from competing flora.
