Objectives: Recently Ciprofloxacin, used in the treatment of mastitis, showed many serious side effects. The object of this study was to recognize whether TNS and KWT can be used in the treatment of mastitis by observing the in vitro antibacterial effects of TNS and KWT aqueous herbal extracts against S. aureus. Methods: Antibacterial activities of TNS and KWT aqueous extracts against S. aureus ATCC 25923 were detected using standard agar microdilution methods. In addition, the effects on the bacterial growth curve were monitored at MIC and $MIC{\times}2$ levels. The effects on the intracellular killing and bacterial invasion of individual test materials were also observed using Raw 264.6 and MCF-7. The results were compared with Ciprofloxacin, a second generation of quinolone antibiotics in the present study. Results: MIC of aqueous extracts of TNS and KWT against S. aureus were detected as ($0.313{\pm}0.107$) and ($0.137{\pm}0.053$) mg/ml, respectively. MIC of Ciprofloxacin was detected as ($0.469{\pm}0.297$) ${\mu}g/ml$ at same conditions. In addition, TNS, KWT aqueous herbal extracts and Ciprofloxacin were also showed marked dosage-dependent inhibition of bacterial growth, and dramatical inhibitions on the both intracellular killing assays and bacterial invasion using Raw 264.6 and MCF-7 cells were detected. Conclusions: The results obtained in this study suggest that TNS and KWT aqueous herbal extracts showed antibacterial effects against S. aureus, and they also showed dosage-dependent inhibitory effects on the bacterial growth. And they showed the significant intracellular killing and bacterial invasion effects. It means, KWT and TNS may show more potent anti-infectious effects against S. aureus in vivo.

금속이 처리된 활성탄에 대한 물리 화학적 흡착특성과 항균효과에 대한 연구를 하였다. Cd 및 Cu가 처리된 활성탄에 관한 물리 흡착 연구로부터 대표적인 Type I의 등온곡선을 얻었다. 이들 금속이 처리된 활성탄의 BET 비표면적 값은 Cd-AC의 경우 $1101-1418m^2/g$의 사이에 분포하였으며, Cu-AC의 경우 $1084-1361m^2/g$의 범위에 분포하였다. 또한 흡착 등온곡선으로부터 ${\alpha}_s$-방법을 도입하여 미세 동공 부피 값과 대표적인 동공 크기 분포를 얻었다. SEM 연구로부터 활성탄의 많은 미세 동공들이 처리된 금속에 의하여 가리움 현상을 일으키는 것으로 나타났다. Escherichia coli에 대한 항균효과를 알아보기 위한 결과로부터 Cd와 Cu의 양을 증가시켜 처리함에 따라 항균 활성 면적이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 까마중추출물의 캔디다 알비칸스의 항균력을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구를 위해 까마중을 70퍼센트 메탄올에 추출하였다. 추출물의 성분분석을 위해 까마중 추출물의 플라보노이드와 폴리페놀의 함량을 확인하였다. 까마중 추출물의 캔디다 알비칸스의 항균력을 확인하기 위하여 생존률을 OD값으로 측정하였고, 증식능력을 CFU로 측정하였다. 까마중 추출물의 플라보노이드와 폴리페놀의 함량을 분석한 결과 각 각 $8.23{\pm}0.13mg/g$와 $14.97{\pm}1.58mg/g$로 나타났다. CFU 결과, 대조군과 비교하여 실험군에서 CFU 값이 낮게 나타났다. 균의 활성도를 평가한 결과, 대조군과 비교하여 실험군에서 더 낮은 균활성도 값을 보여 칸디다 알비칸스에 대한 까마중 추출물의 항균력을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과, 까마중 추출물은 칸디다균뿐만 아니라 치과분야에서 천연 항균제로 사용될 수 있을 가능성이 보인다.

A novel antibacterial paper coated with chitosan-based silver (Ag) nanocomposite prepared by green synthesis has been investigated for a wide range of application in food, agricultural and medical packaging. Green synthesis of Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) was carried out by a chemical reaction involving a mixture of chitosan-silver nitrate (AgNO3) in an autoclave at 15 psi, $121^{\circ}C$, for 15-120 sec. AgNPs and their formation in chitosan were confirmed by both UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) study showed that free amino groups in chitosan act as an effective reductant and AgNPs stabilizer. Antibacterial test of coated paper with as-prepared chitosan-AgNPs was performed qualitatively against E. coli based on the formation of halo zones around coated papers and it was shown to be effective in suppressing the growth of E. coli with increasing Ag contents in coating layer.

This study was accomplished for the purpose of developing a textile processing ingredient that is harmless to the human body and environment. The research method consists of dyeing cotton textiles by extracting the dye solution from ginseng. Then, chrominance, after treatment, antibacterial ratio and deodorization ratio of cotton fabrics dyed with ginseng extracts were tested and results were examined. The research procedure involved first extracting the dye solution from the ginseng's by-product (fine roots) and then dyeing was effectuated differently according to the test samples temperature and dyeing time requirements. Brightness in all dye substances was lower in pre-mordanting. Beige color could be extracted from pre-mordanted samples. And dark orange from postmordanted samples. Color-festness was high in all samples. Most of samples show a big antibacterial ratio and deodorization ratio. Through this research it has been discovered that, when applied to textiles, Korea's ginseng extract possessed reproducibility features as a natural dye and a possibility to be used in cutting which plays a crucial role in hygienic processing. In addition, by using ginseng's by-product for dyeing processing as the dye solution, efficient application of resources and occurrences of no water waste damages were demonstrated and thus, proved to be environmentally-friendly. Specifically, through this experiment, it was found that saponin, ginseng's special characteristics, possessed excellent antibacterial odor repelling functions to clothing as well as the capability to prevent skin disease.

본 연구를 통하여 우리는 새로운 실험기구를 사용하여 방사성동위원소(Lu-177)의 항균능력을 측정하였다. 기존에 약물의 항균능력을 측정하는데 사용되었던 디스크법은 배지로의 약물 확산에 의해서 항균능력을 측정하는 방법이기 때문에 방사성동위원소에 적용하기는 적합하지 않아 새로운 실험 방법이 요구된다. 방사성동위원소의 항균능력을 측정하기 위해서는 배지로의 약물 확산을 막고 한점에 머무르게 하는 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 우리는 새로운 실험도구를 이용하여 Lu-177의 방사능량이 증가할수록 항균능력이 증가함을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 실험방법을 통해 다른 방사성동위원소의 항균능력도 쉽게 측정할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The non-mevalonate pathway is a newly discovered isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway in some bacteria, cyanobacteria, algae and plants. Because isoprenoid metabolites (ubiquinone, menaquinone, undecaprenol) are essential for bacterial growth, this pathway may represent a novel target for antibacterial agents. Antibiotics with a unique mechanism of action are needed to combat the risk of antibiotic resistance that is a current worldwide problem. In order to study this pathway as viable target, it was necessary to verify use of the pathway in our model system, the bacterium Bacillus subtilis. Incubation experiments with [6,6-$^2$H$_2$]-D-glucose and [l-$^2$H$_3$]-deoxy-D-xylulose were conducted to provide labeled menaquinone-7 (MK -7), the most abundant isoprenoid in B. subtilis. $^2$H-NMR analysis of the MK-7 revealed labeling patterns that strongly support utilization of the non-mevalonate pathway. Another approach to study the pathway is by structure activity relationships of proposed inhibitors of the pathway. Fosmidomycin is a phosphonic acid with antibacterial activity known to inhibit isoprenoid biosynthesis in susceptible bacteria and may act by inhibiting the non-mevalonate pathway. Fosmidomycin and an N-methyl analog were synthesized and tested for antibacterial activity. Fosmidomycin was active against Escherichia coli and B. subtilis, while N-formyl-N-methyl-3-amino-propylphosphonic acid was inactive.

This study was carried out to examine that pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin has applicabilities which are market milk and dairy products. The stability of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine apo-lactoferrin and the change of its antibacterial character has been studied under various method for pasteurization (LTLT; 65$^{\circ}C$ / 30min., HTST ; 75$^{\circ}C$ / 15sec., UHT ; 135$^{\circ}C$ / 3sec.) and pH Values (pH 2.0, pH 4.0, pH 6.8). The ehated samples were assayed for minimal bacteriocidal concentrations (MBCs) and bacteriocidal effect against E. coli. The results obtained were summarized as follows: After fractionation of pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactofeerin by gel filtration. several peptide fractions were found that had strong antibacterial activity. SDS-PAGE showed that the one of these fractions with strong antibacterial activity, which had a molecular mass a range of 30∼33KDa. The MBCs for pepsin-hydrolyzed bovine lactoferrin fraction No. 2 against E. coli required to cause complete inhibition of growth varied within the range of 200∼400 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, depending on heat treatments and pH conditions. The peptide fraction No. 2 showed strong bacteriocidal activity against E. coli at LTLT and HTST treatments under acidic pH conditions. and was reduced activity at UHT treatment under pH 6.8 condition.

In the present study, sterilizing and antibacterial performance tests of Polybutylene pipe with nano-silver were carried out in the testing bench of water supply facilities. Experimental results show that the average sterilizing and antibacterial rate of two micro-biological samples such as E. coli and S. aureus is about 90% in case of stillness experimental condition and 99% in case of flowing experimental condition, when elapsed time is 120 hours and 3 hours, respectively. Experimental results also show that the supply water velocity in nano-silver Polybutylene pipe varies from 1 m/s to 1.5 m/s, the elapsed time needed sterilizing rate reach to 100% decreases.
