Escherichia coli O157：H7, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enteritidis are food borne pathogens involved in food poisoning in numerous countries. This study aimed to obtain knowledges on the survival of Esc coli O157：H7, Sta aureus and Sal. enteritidis in the yoghurt added with water extract of Omija(Schizandra chinensis). The growth inhibition of Schizandra chinensis extract on the food borne pathogens were measured by total microbial count and effect of growth inhibition was correspondent to the concentration of Schizandra chinensis extract. The highest growth inhibition effect of Schizandra chinensis extract was shown on the Sta aureus followed by Sal. enteritidis and Esc. coli O157：H7. The number of surviving Esc. coli O157：H7 cell(3.55${\times}$10$\^$5/ CFU/mL) was decreased to 1.00${\times}$10$^1$∼3.00${\times}$10$^1$ CFU/mL after 24 hours incubation by the addition of 0.4∼l.0％ of Schizandra chinensis extract in the yoghurt. And also the viable cell counts of surviving Sta. aureus cells (initial inoculum 1.24${\times}$10$\^$5/ CFU/mL) were decreased gradually to 4.00${\times}$10$^2$∼8.50${\times}$10$^2$ CFU/mL after 48 hours of incubation, but the viable cells of Sal. enteritidis were not detected after 24 hours of incubation. Growth of the food borne pathogens was strongly inhibited by the addition and incubation of Schizandra chinensis extract for 48 hours in the yoghurt.

Throughout the studies the following experimental results were obtained and are summarized: 1. Multiplication of agents in primary cell cultures of both GF classical and CR-64 acute strain of Marek's disease infected chicken kidneys was accompanied by the formation of distinct transformed cell foci. This characteristic nature of cell transformation was passaged regularly by addition of dispersed cell from infected cultures to normal chicken kidney cell cultures, and also transferred was the nature of cell transformation to normal chick-embryo liver and neuroglial cell cultures. No cytopathic changes were noticed in inoculated chick-embryo fibroblast cultures. 2. The same cytopathic effects were noticed in normal kidney cell monolayers after the inoculation of whole blood and huffy coat cells derived from both forms of Marek's disease infected chickens. In these cases, however, the number of transformed cell foci appearing was far less than that of uninoculated monolayers prepared directly from the kidneys of Marek's disease infected chickens. 3. The change in cell culture IS regarded as a specific cell transformation focus induced by an oncogenic virus rather than it plaque in slowly progressing cytopathic effect by non-oncogenic viruses, and it is quite similar to RSV focus in chick-embryo fibroblasts in many respects. 4. The infective agent (cell transformable) were extremely cell-associated and could not be separated in an infective state from cells under the experimental conditions. 5. The focus assay of these agents was valid as shown by the high degree of linear correlation (r=0.97 and 0.99) between the relative infected cell concentration (in inoculum) and the transformed cell foci counted. 6. No differences were observed between the GF classical strain and the CR-64 acute strain of Marek's disease as far as cell culture behavior. 7. Characterization of the isolates by physical and chemical treatments, development of internuclear inclusions in Infected cells, and nucleic acid typing by differential stainings and cytochemical treatments indicated that the natures of these cell transformation agents closely resemble to those described fer the group B herpes viruses. 8. Susceptible chicks inoculated with infected kidney tissue culture cells developed specific lesions of Marek's disease, and in a case of prolonged observation after inoculation (5 weeks) the birds developed clinical symptoms and gross lesions of Marek's disease. Kidney cell cultures prepared from those inoculated birds and sacrificed showed a superior recovery of cell transformation property by formation of distinct foci. 9. Electron microscopic study of infected kidney culture cells (GF agent) by negative staining technique revealed virus particles furnishing the properties of herpes viruses. The particle was measured about $100m{\mu}$ and, so far, no herpes virus envelop has been seen from these preparations. 10. No relationship of both isolates to avian leukosis/sarcoma group viruses and PPLO was observed.
