초록

동물성 식품 유래 장구균의 에리스로마이신 내성 유전자형 및 표현형을 분석하고자 하였다. 경기북부지역의 축산 농가 15곳으로부터 원유 시료 378개를 분양받아 본실험에 사용하였으며 에리스로마이신 내성 장구균 분리에 사용하였다. 총 110균주의 장구균이 분리 되었으며 이중 E. faecalis가 101균주, E. avium이 7균주, E durans가 2균주였다. 에리스로마이신에 대한 내성 비율은 65.45%였으며 $MIC_{50}$은 16 ${\mu}g$/ml, $MIC_{90}$은 64 ${\mu}g$/ml이었다. 분리된 장구균 110균주 모두 erm(B) 유전자를 소유하고 있었으며 75.45%인 83균주가 mef(A)를 소유하고 있음을 확인하였다. 표현형 분석에 따르면 지속성 내성($cMLS_B$)을 나타내는 균주는 95균주(86.36%)였으며 유도내성 ($iMLS_B$)을 보이는 균주는 15균주(13.34%)였다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the erythromycin resistance patterns of Enterococci sp. present in cow milk. A total 110 erythromycin resistant Enterococci were isolated from milk samples; E. faecalis (n=101), E. avium (n=7), and E. durans (n=2). The minimum inhibitory concentration of erythromycin against 110 Enterococci were determined. The 66.3% of Entercocci (n=73) showed high level resistance (${\geq}64$ mg/ml). Among 110 isolates, 86.3% (n=95) showed $cMLS_B$ phenotype and 13.6% (n=15) showed $iMLS_B$ The aim of this study was to investigate the erythromycin resistance patterns of Enterococci sp. present in cow milk.

The majority of Enetrcococci isolated from raw milk samples in northern area of Gyeonggi-Do showed high level of resistance to erythromycin.
