Abstract

In 1999, Vibrio harveyi infection occurred among cultured marine finfishes including olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), black rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli), and turbot (Scophtalmus maximus) in the province of Gyeongsang, Korea. We examined the various microbiological characteristics of this V. harveyi strains. V. harveyi was grown well in the 3% NaCl at 30℃. The swarming activity appeared to be an one of the characteristic properties of the V. harveyi was the highest in the 2% NaCl concentration at TSA medium. These cells were elongated and had the several lateral flagella which is not waved and shorter than polar flagella. It was not luminescent in the all isolated strains. Whole cell of the V. harveyi had a major protein of 50 kDa and presented various band around of 40 kDa in strains.

본 연구에서는 우리 나라에서 분리된 Vibrio harveyi의 미생물학적 특성을 조사하여 V. harveyi 연구의 기초적인 정보를 제공하고자 하였다. V. harveyi는 염분 농도 3%, 배양 온도 30℃에서 가장 잘 증식하였다. Swarming 운동은 1.5% NaCl 첨가 TSA에서 가장 활발하였으며, swarming 운동시 균체는 길어지며, 짧고 곧은 다수의 lateral flagella가 생성된 것을 확인하였다. 우리나라에서 분리된 V. harveyi는 luminometer로 직접 검출하는 방법과 luciferase gene을 검출하는 방법 모두에서 음성으로 나타나, 발광능이 없는 것으로 조사되었다. V. harveyi의 균체 단백질은 50 kDa 부근의 major protein을 가지며, 균주에 따라 40 kDa 근처의 상이한 band pattern을 보였다.
