Habituation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Alkali and Susceptibility of Causative Agents
알칼리조건에서 Escherichia coli 0157:H7의 적응 및 항균요법제에 대한 감수성
Abstract
Habituation to alkali condition and susceptibility to antimicrobial agents were investigated to determine methods t inactivation Escherichia coli O157:H7 associated with food poisoning. The investigation showed that Escherichia coli O157:H7growth at pH 9.0 The susceptibilities of Escherichia coli O157:H7 to 13 drugs examined were found highest in regad to saicin and ceftriaxone and lowest in regard to erythromycin and josamycin. No significant changes in minimal inhibitory concen-tration(MIC) values of bactericidal effect was found when saicin and ceftriaxone were irradiated with doses of 5-100KGy.
