초록

본 연구의 목적은 미량오염물질인 클린다마이신(Clindamycin) 항생제의 생분해성을 질산화 슬러지내 에서 평가하는 것이다. 우선 단기간 배치 실험(Batch)을 통한 10ppb의 클린다마이신 생분해 실험결과, 클린다마이신이 반으로 줄어드는 시간 ($t_{0.5}$)은 질산화 슬러지내에서는 9.1시간으로 측정되었으나, 질산화가 저해된 슬러지내에서는 $t_{0.5}$ 시간이 26.1시간으로 증가하였다. 본 실험을 통해, 클린다마이신 분해산물이 질산화 슬러지내에서 발견되었고 이는 clindamycin-sulfoxide (m/z 441)인 것으로 추정되었다. 이 분해산물은 항생 능력이 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 이 클린다마이신 분해산물은 장기간 배치실험을 통해서도 줄어들지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다. 따라서, 활성슬러지를 통한 클린다마이신의 완전 생분해는 쉽지 않은 것으로 판단되었다.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the biodegradability of the micro-contaminant, clindamycin antibiotic, under nitrifying activated sludge (AS) condition. Based on the short-term clindamycin degradation batch test at an environmentally relevant concentration (10 ppb), clindamycin disappearance half-life ($t_{0.5}$) was estimated to be 9.1hrs under nitrification condition. However, biodegradation was slower (26.1 hrs) when nitrification was inhibited. Also, one clindamycin metabolite was detected under nitrification condition, but not under inhibited nitrification condition. Based on the mass spectra, the metabolite is suspected to be clindamycin-sulfoxide (m/z 441), which is known to have antimicrobial activity. The metabolite was not degraded during the long term batch study, suggesting that under the conditions tested, biodegradation of clindamycin in activated sludge systems is ineffective.
