초록

본 연구는 김치로부터 분리한 EPS생성 유산균 Leu. kimchii GJ2에 대한 급성독성시험을 위하여 복강 및 경구로 1회 시료물질을 최고 용량(복강: 2,500 mg/kg, 경구: 5,000 mg/kg)으로, 10마리 ICR계통 암수 마우스에게 투여한 후 14일간의 일반증상, 사망률, 체중, 임상증상 및 육안적 소견을 관찰하였다. 복강 및 경구투여한 후 24시간 이내에 일부 시료투여군에서 부분적으로 사망례가 관찰되었으나 나머지 시험동물은 계속 생존하여 평균치사량을 산출할 수 없었다. 복강 혹은 경구투여한 후 마우스의 체중변화에 있어서도 암수 모두 대조군과 시료물질 투여군 사이에 유의성 있는 차이는 보이지 않았으며, 생존동물의 부검결과에서도 내부장기의 육안적 이상 소견도 관찰되지 않았다. 이상의 결과로부터 시험물질인 Leu. kimchii GJ2는 복강 및 경구투여 시 마우스에서 독성학적인 변화가 관찰되지 않았으며, $LD_{50}$은 복강투여가 2,500 mg/kg, 경구투여가 5,000 mg/kg 이상인 저독성의 안전한 물질로 사료된다.

The present study was carried out to investigate the acute toxicity of Leuconostoc kimchii GJ2(Leu. kimchii GJ2), an exopolysaccharide-producing lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi, in ICR male and female mice. The test article was intraperitoneally or orally administered to both sexes of mice. Then followed a 14-day period of observation. In intraperitoneal acute toxicity test, mice were injected intraperitoneally with dosage of 0, 700, 900, 1,100, 1,300, 1,500, 1,700, 1,900, 2,100, 2,300 and 2,500 mg/kg. Intraperitoneal 50% lethal doses($LD_{50}$) of Leu. kimchii GJ2 was >2,500 mg/kg in male and female mice. In oral acute toxicity test, male and female mice were gavaged with Leu. kimchii GJ2 of five doses(0, 625, 1,500, 2,500 and 5,000 mg/kg). Oral $LD_{50}$ of Leu. kimchii GJ2 was consider to be higher than 5,000 mg/kg. Furthermore, no significant changes in general conditions, body weights, clinical signs and any gross lesions were observed in both sexes of mice administered intraperitoneally or orally with Leu. kimchii GJ2. In conclusion, our results suggest that no adverse effect level of Leu. kimchii GJ2 is estimated to be over 2,500 mg/kg in the intraperitoneal route and 5,000 mg/kg in the oral route, respectively.
