Chum salmon의 알이 부화하는 동안 물곰팡이의 감염으로부터 보호하기 위해 알을 10 mg/L 염소농도의 하이포아염소산나트륨(NaOCl) 용액에 매일 15분간 수정란에서부터 발안기까지 처리하였다. 감염된 알의 수 및 발안기 알의 수는 부화 23일째 관찰하였다. 전체의 알에서 감염된 알의 비율은 대조구(11.3;59.3%)보다 NaOCl 처리한 실험구(1.8; 33.4%)에서 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다(P<0.01). 전체 알에 대한 발안란의 비율은 대조구(66.1:97.5%)보다 NaOCl처리한 실험구(85.9:98.6%)에서 유의적으로 우수한 경향을 보였다(P<0.01). NaOCl의 항균 활성은 알의 생존율을 향상시킨다. 따라서 NaOCl는 chum salmon의 난에 대한 물곰팡이의 감염에 대하여 아주 유용한 항균물질이라고 판단된다.

머드는 알루미늄, 철, 마그네슘 등의 미네랄이 풍부하여 원적외선 방사율이 높고, 미량 포함된 단백질과 비타민은 피부의 세포조직을 강화하고 탄력성을 주며, 항균, 소취 등의 기능을 보유하고 있다. 이러한 유익한 기능을 가진 머드를 매일 사용하는 면타올에 적용하려 하나 무기 염재인 머드는 섬유와 친화성이 없어 일반 염료처럼 고농도로 섬유에 염색되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 섬유의 촉감에 영향을 미치지 않으면서 머드의 염색농도를 높이기 위해, 4종의 고착제를 이용한 염색법을 검토하였다. 먼저 식물성 단백질액으로 면타올을 전처리하고 나노입자의 머드액를 사용하여 염착시킨 경우가 가장 진하게 염색되며, 염색견뢰도 측정 결과 세탁과 땀에 모두 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

The emergence and dissemination of extended-spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamse (ESBL) producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates make it more difficult to treatment of bacterial infections. In our study, we detected ESBL genes and investigated antimicrobial susceptibility of K. pneumoniae isolates in Chungcheong province. In addition, clonality among the isolates was analyzed by repetitive element sequence (REP)-PCR. Twenty-one of 102 K. pneumoniae isolates produced CTX-M-14 and/or CTX-M-15 and showed high level (over 70%) resistance to third cephalosporins. CTX-M type ESBL producing K. pneumoniae strains isolated in our study showed diverse clonality and some of the isolates have been disseminated in the community. Enhancing infection control will be needed to prevent dissemination of the K. pneumoniae isolates. In addition, for more effective control of resistant bacteria it is considered necessary to monitor the database constructed through convergence of biological investigation and statistical analysis of antimicrobial resistance genes.

The cytotoxic and antibacterial activities of Sanguisorbae officinalis L., which is known as a major tannin source, were investigated to check the possible use of natural nutraceutics or cosmetics. The S. officinalis inhibited cancer cell growth in a dose-dependant manner. Also, the clear zone against various bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, E. coli were evident at 0.5 and 1 mg/disc. When the concentrations were 500 and 1,000 ppm, growth of all aerobic bacteria increased at early stage but decrease afterward. The results indicated that S. officinalis had the anti-skin cancer activity as well as antibacterial activity against skin-related bacteria.

This study was conducted to find potentialities of the leaves of gingko tree (Gingko biloba L.) which has been planted as a roadside tree in Korea because of its resistance on air pollution, insect, fungi, etc. Various amounts of the leaves were mixed with wasted wood particles to manufacture particleboard. Their influences on physical and mechanical properties and the formaldehyde emission of PB were investigated. Physical and mechanical properties, such as density, modulus of rupture (MOR), and internal bond (IB) strength, of manufactured particleboard were not much different from those of control board. Formaldehyde emission values were decreased with increasing amount of leaves in PB prepared. Especially, particleboard made with 3 percent of leaves was decreased to $1.66mg/{\ell}$ in formaldehyde emission, which is about 40% lower emission than that of control. From these results, the leaves of gingko tree may be considered as a formaldehyde emission lowering additive in a functional PB manufacturing process.

In order to incorporate silver ions into the alginate, silver-alginate was prepared with aqueous solutions of silver nitrate. In the study, the silver-alginate was prepared by blending with poly vinylpyrrolidone solutions and the electrospinning was performed by using this blend solution. Antibacterial properties of silver-alginate/PVP solutions were estimated for Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus by the colony counting test. Electrospinning conditions of silver-alginate/PVP solution were the tip-to-collector distance of 22 cm, the flow rate of the solution at 0.01 mL/min, and the voltage at 26 kV. The form and size of silver-alginate/PVP nanofibers were estimated by SEM and Image J. The average diameter of the electrospun SA5P15 fibers was 124 nm and showed a narrow diameter distribution. The reduction of bacteria for SA5P15 exhibited 99.9% after 24 h.

Antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of ethanol extracts from 2 colored sweet potatoes such as purple and yellow, 5 pale yellow sweet potatoes, and 8 general cultivars of sweet potato were investigated. Colored sweet potatoes showed the highest antioxidative activity, followed by Saengmi and Yeonmi, which were pale yellow sweet potato cultivars, and Hwangmi, which was a general cultivar of sweet potato. Colored sweet potatoes also showed distinctively lower mold and surface microbial number (cfu) than the pale yellow sweet potatoes and the general cultivars of sweet potato. Although all sweet potatoes tested did not represent any antimicrobial activity against yeast and mold, they exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus faecalis. Especially, purple and yellow sweet potatoes showed antimicrobial activity against wide range of bacteria.

Isolates of the different species groups of Trichoderma from the mushroom culture beds were identified according to Rifai's classification and influence of antibiotics produced by them against the oyster mushroom was examined. Trichoderma islolates were identified as Trichoderma hamatum, Trichoderma viride and Trichoderma koningii. Among the Trichoderma isolates, fungistatic action of Trichoderma viride was found to be most remarkable. Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus sajor-caju were the most susceptable of the edible mushrooms tested, followed by Lentinus edodes, Flammulina velutipes and Auricularia auricula. A needle-shaped crystal gained from the chloroform extract of the culture filtrate of Trichoderma viride repressed distinctively the mycelial growth of the oyster mushroom. The grade of repression of the crystal at 500ppm and 1/10 aequ­ous solution of the chloroform extract against the oyster mushroom, seemed equal to that of cycloheximide at $100{\sim}200ppm$.
