Abstract

To develop a lactic starter to produce antimicrobial substance for inhibiting the growth of a variety of foodborne spoilage bacteria in fermented foods, we investigated the anti-bacterial effect of the antibacterial substance, produced by Lactobacillus amylovorus IMC-1, against foodborne spoilage strains, and its sensitivity on the treatment of proteolytic enzymes. L. amylovorus IMC-1, which was isolated from a traditional cheese in Inner Mongolia, produced a maximum amount of antibacterial substance in the skim milk medium after 72 h incubation at 37$^{\circ}C$, and further incubation resulted in the same activity. The substance obtained from gel filtration inhibited all strains used such as Bacillus subtilis IFO 3025, Staphylococcus aureus IAM 1011, Listeria monocytogenes VTU 206, Escherichia coli RB, and Pseudomonas fragi IFO 3458 at the concentration of 20 units/ml. This substance was found to show bactericidal action against B. subtilis, E. coli, and Ps. fragi, and bacteriostatic activity against both Staph. aureus and L. monocytogenes. The bactericidal action was due to cellular Iysis. The substance is not organic acid, hydrogen peroxide and proteinaceous compound.

본 연구에서는 발효 식품의 제조에 유용한 항균성 물질을 생산하는 유산균 starter의 개발의 일환으로 장내 상존균으로 알려진 Lactobacillus acidophilus group유산균인 Lactobacillus amylovorus IMC-1 균주가 생산한 항균성 물질의 식품오염세균에 대한 항균 활성을 검토하였다. 내몽골 원산 치즈에서 분리된 L. amylovorus IMC-1 균주는 탈지유배지에서 37$^{\circ}C$에서 72시간 배양하였을 때 최대로 항균성 물질을 생산하였으며, 더 이상의 배양은 항균성 물질의 생산에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 겔 여과후의 항균성 물질은 식품오염세균인 Bacillus subtilis IFO 3025, staphylococcus aureus IAM 1011, Listeria monocytogenes VTU 206, Escherichia coli RB. 및 Pseudomonas fragi IFO 3458등과 같은 모든 피검균에 대하여 20units/ml 첨가로 항균활성을 나타내었다. 그리고 이 물질은 B. subtilis, E. coli및 Ps. fragi에 대해서는 살균 작용을 나타내었으며, Staphy. aureus와 L. monocytogenes에 대해서는 정균 작용을 보였다. 그 살균 작용은 용균 작용에 기인한 것임이 밝혀졌다. 또한 이 물질은 유기산, 과산화수소 및 단백질성 물질이 아님이 밝혀졌다.
