Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate for resistance of V. parahaemolyticus that isolated from patients of food poisoning and fish and shellfish, captured in east coast of Kyungpook province of Korea from 1985 to 1986. VP ATCC 17802 and NAG V. ATCC 6538 were used as control. In fish, shellfish and seaweed, the more temperature increased, the shorter survival time was. In case of sea-water, the more temperature rose up, the longer survival time was, particularly in $37^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, the strains had survived after 6 months. And in tapwater, it was sterilized in 150 mins. and survived for 11.5 days on maximum in ground water. In kimchi, at room temperature, germicidal time was shorter more than 6 times compared with that which had been kept in refrigerator. It survived for 57.1 days in milk, 49.2 mins. in yougurt. Strains had been surviving in frozen condition at $-70^{\circ}C$ even after 6 months, present study time. In resistance test in water bath at several degrees of temperature, all the strains were sterilized in 20 mins. with $60^{\circ}C$. In resistance test to driness, number of surviving strains dropped rapidly in 10-11%) water contents. In UV $2538{\AA}$, strains were sterilized in 20 mins. In resistance test to alcohol, strains had survived for 0.1-4 mins. in fermentative wine of below than 25% and distilled wine of over than 25% in alcohol concentration. The bactericidal concentration of disinfectant was 1% in phenol and 3% in cresol. In 0.1M acetic acid and 0.1M lactic acid, number of surviving colonies decreased rapidly but not in citric acid. The more NaCl concentration rose up, the lower decreasing rate of number of surviving colonies was. The strains had showed sensitive response to vancomycin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, and resisted to carbenicillin, ampicillin and kanamycin. When one day culture strain was cultured till 25th day, resistant strains to tetracycline and cephalothin were changed to sensitive.

본 연구는 식중독 환자와 1985년부터 1986년까지 2년간 경상북도 동해안에서 어획한 어패류로부터 분리 동정된 장염 비브리오균의 저항성에 대해서 관찰한 것으로, 대조균은 VP ATCC 17802와 NAG V. ATCC 6538이었다. 어패류와 해초 둥에서는 온도가 상승할수록 생존기간이 짧았다. 해수온도가 상승할수록 생존기간이 길었으며 특히 $37^{\circ}C$$25^{\circ}C$에서 6개월이 지난 현재도(1987. 6. 10) 생존을 계속하고 있다. 상수에서 150분내 사멸하였고 지하수에서 11.5일간 생존하였다. 숙성된 김치(pH 3.9)가 냉장고에서 보관된 김치(pH 4.5)보다 균의 사멸시간이 빨랐으며, 우유에서 57.1일, 요구르트에서 49.2분간 생존하였다. $-70^{\circ}C$의 냉동상태에서는 6개월이 경과한 현재까지도 생존하고 있으나$60^{\circ}C$ 항온조에서는 20분내에 전 균주가 사멸하였다. 내건성 실험에서 10-11% 함수율을 기점으로 생존수가 급격히 떨어지는 양상을 보였다. 자외선 $2538{\AA}$의 조사에서 20분내에 전 균주가 사멸하였다. 알콜에 대한 시험결과 25%미만의 발효주에서는 0.5내지 4분간 생존하였고 25% 이상의 증류주 경우 0.1분내 사멸하였다. 소독액의 유효 살균농도는 석탄산 1%, 크레졸 3%이었다. 0.1M 빙초산과 유산 함유배지에서 60분간 배양후, 생균수가 급격히 저하하였으나 구연산의 경우는 그렇지 않았으며 염도가 증가할수록 생균수 감소폭이 줄어 들었다. Vancomycin, Chloramphenicol, Gentamicin, Cephalothin 및 Nitrofurantoin 등에 감수성을 보였으며 Carbenicillin, Ampicillin 및 Kanamycin 등에 저항성을 나타내었다. 또 1일 배양균을 25일간 증균시킬 때 Tetracycline, Cephalothin 등에 대한 저항성이 감수성으로 변화하였다.
