The germicidal and insecticidal properties of volatile components extracted from star anise(Illicium verum Hooker filius) and clove (Eugenia caryophyllata THUNBERG)were evaluated against five microorganisms and three insects for the purpose of developing biocidal active substances from medicinal plants. The volatile components of star anise and clove showed strong antimicrobial effect against Aspergillus niger, Penicillium funiculosum, Mucor hiemalis, Trichoderma viride, and Aureobasidium pullulans. The extracts of each medicine also showed insecticidal effects against Sitophilusoryzae L., Lyctus linearis GOZE, and Reticulitermes spertus kyushuensis Morimoto. Fumigant toxicities to adult insects were determined. In the case of fumiganttoxicity, the extract of star anise showed 100% mortality against R. spertus, S.oryzae, and L. linearis at rates of $2.5\mu\ell$, $50\mu\ell$, $250\mu\ell$/filter paper, respectively but showed no killing effects by clove. The volatile components of star anise and clove were investigated by means of GC/MS. The main constitute, anethole among 20components from star anise and eugenol among 9 components from clove were identified. The mixture of star anise and clove as the volume ratio of 2 : 1 showed higher properties for antimicrobial and insecticidal effect than each volatile component. A. niger was inhibited by the mixture(125ml/$m^3$) for up to 10 days of exposure. Also, from the result of observing state change of organic materials by volatile extracts of star anise and clove, volatile extracts effects have no effect on natural organic materials of organic cultural properties and can be used as biological control agent. As research contents as above, the insecticidal and germicidal agents from star anise and clove and the mixture of them were more efficient and high level to prevent biological damage for conservation of organic cultural properties. So they may be used in new development of biologicalinsecticidal and germicidal agents for conservation of cultural properties.

Clitoria ternatea or Commonly known blue pea, is a perennial climber crop native to Asian countries. The current study was aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity C. ternatea extract on food borne microorganisms and its antifungal effect on Penicillium expansum. The extract showed significant antimicrobial activity against 3 Gram positive bacteria, 2 Gram negative bacteria and 1 filamentous fungus on disc diffusion assay. The extract also showed good biocidal effect on all Gram positive bacteria tested and P. expansum. However, the kill curve analysis revealed that the fungicidal activity of the extract against P. expansum conidia was depend on the concentration of the extract and the time of exposure of the conidia to the extract. The scanning electron micrograph of the extract treated P. expansum culture showed alterations in the morphology of fungal hyphae. The germination of P. expansum conidia was completely inhibited and conidial development was totally suppressed by the extract, suggesting the possible mode of action of anthocyanin. Besides, the extract also exhibited 5.0-log suppression of microbial growth relative to control in the rice model. The results indicate the potential use of the C. ternatea anthocyanin as food biopreservative.

과산화수소의 이스라엘잉어에 대한 급성독성 시험을 실시하여 반수치사농도 ($LC_{50}$)를 구하고 기생충 제거 효과와 살균력을 조사하였다. 이스라엘잉어 (평균체중 0.44 g)는 80 $\mu\ell/\ell$에서 24시간 동안 폐사가 발생하지 않았으며 24시간 $LC_{50}$은 148.9 $\mu\ell/\ell$ 이었다. 이스라엘잉어 (평균 체중 0.1 g)에 기생된 트리코디나는 40 $\mu\ell/\ell$의 과산화수소로 1회 약욕 하였을 때 모두 제거되었다. 30종의 어병 임상균주를 사용하여 시험한 결과, 과산화수소에 대한 어병 세균의 최소억제 농도는 거의 40 $\mu\ell/\ell$보다 낮았으며 과산화수소에 의한 세균 증식 억제 효과를 확인 할 수 있었다.

Aquaculture development is based on the ideas of increasing production while reducing economic losses. Bacterial diseases are the leading source of fish cases. Citrobacter freundii has been linked to septicemia and mortality all over the world. In the current study, the cause of mortality in O. niloticus was C. freundii MW279218. External hemorrhages were seen on the affected fish, as well as paleness in the liver and kidney congestion. C. freundii MW279218 had a median lethal dosage of 1.5×10⁵ CFU/mL. Zinc oxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) were tested for their biocidal effectiveness against C. freundii MW279218. The lethal effect of ZnO-NPs for C. freundii MW279218 was 100% when compared to zinc oxide compound, and the inhibition zone width was 2.31.1mm at the highest tested concentrations (70 mg/L) compared to the lowest (35 and 45 mg/L, respectively). Fish were fed three different diets for 28 days: diet 1 (no additives), diet 2 (100 mg of ZnO-NPs/kg of feed), and diet 3 (200 mg of ZnO-NPs/kg of feed). Organs were also collected for histopathology 96 hours after injection (P<0.05). In the groups given 200 mg of ZnO-NPs, there was 10% mortality and 80% RPS. The group fed 100 mg of ZnO-NPs/kg, on the other hand, had 20% mortality and 60% RPS, compared to 50% mortality in the control positive group. Histopathological examinations demonstrated significant alterations in the control positive group and mild lesions in the hepatopancreas of the groups administered 100 mg ZnO-NPs/kg of feed. The groups fed 200 mg of ZnO-NPs/kg diet, on the other hand, showed no histological alterations. ZnO-NPs were found to be effective in the up regulation of both IL-10 and complement 5 immune-related genes.

소취 및 소독제로서 사용되어온 안정화 이산화염소($S-ClO_2$)의 조직에 대한 부패억제 효과를 확인하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 실험을 위해 8주령 SD계 흰쥐 콩팥(kidney)을 사용하였고, 안정화 이산화염소를 처리하지 않은 대조군과, 안정화 이산화염소의 분말과 수용액을 처리한 실험군으로 구분하여 광학 및 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 광학현미경 관찰 결과, 부패양상은 시간경과에 따라 토리, 보우만주머니 및 세뇨관을 구성하는 세포의 핵과 세포사이 경계가 불분명해지며, 세뇨관의 경우 신장되었다가 결국에 수축되었다. 대조군의 1일군부터 괴사(necrosis)가 시작되어 3일군 이후는 전체적인 조직 괴사로 형태를 구별하기 어려웠다. 실험군에서 3일군의 경우, 조직의 전반적 형태와 괴사정도가 대조군의 1일군과 유사하였다. 전자현미경 관찰 결과, 시간경과에 따라 세포소기관 및 미토콘드리아의 부분적 붕괴로 시작되어 결과적으로 모든 세포내소기관이 붕괴되었다. 대조군의 1일군에서 세포소기관의 부분적 붕괴가 관찰되었으며, 실험군의 3일군에서 세포소기관 및 미토콘드리아의 부분적 붕괴 현상이 관찰되었다. 대조군의 3일군 이후에서는 세포소기관을 구별할 수 없었다. 이상의 연구 결과에서 $37^{\circ}C$, 습도 $80{\pm}5%$에서 안정화 이산화염소($S-ClO_2$)가 부패와 변성을 억제하는 부패억제제로서 효과가 있고, 억제 정도는 실험군의 3일군이 대조군의 1일군에 해당하는 것으로 보아 최소 2일 정도의 부패억제 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다.

Didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC) is used in many types of biocidal products including tableware, carpets, humidifiers, and swimming pools, etc. In spite of increased chances of DDAC exposure through inhalation, studies on the inhalation toxicity of DDAC are not common even though the toxicity of DDAC might be significantly higher if it were to be administered through routes other than the respiratory system. DDAC aerosols were exposed to Sprague-Dawley rats in whole body exposure chambers for a duration of 13 weeks. The Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameters of the DDAC aerosol were $0.63{\mu}m$, $0.81{\mu}m$, and $1.65{\mu}m$, and the geometric standard deviations were 1.62, 1.65, and 1.65 in the low ($0.11{\pm}0.06mg/m^3$), the middle ($0.36{\pm}0.20mg/m^3$) and the high ($1.41{\pm}0.71mg/m^3$) exposure groups, respectively. Body weight was confirmed to be clearly influenced by exposure to DDAC and mean body weight was approximately 35% lower in the high ($1.41{\pm}0.71mg/m^3$) male group and 15% lower in the high ($1.41{\pm}0.71mg/m^3$) female group compared to that of the control group. In the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid assay, the levels of albumin and lactate dehydrogenase had no effect on DDAC exposure. The lung weight increased for the middle ($0.36{\pm}0.20mg/m^3$) and the high ($1.41{\pm}0.71mg/m^3$) concentrations of the DDAC exposure group, and inflammatory cell infiltration and interstitial pneumonia were partially observed in the lungs of the middle ($0.36{\pm}0.20mg/m^3$) and the high ($1.41{\pm}0.71mg/m^3$) exposure groups. However, severe histopathological symptoms, including proteinosis and/or fibrosis, were not found. Based on the results of the changes in the body weight and lung weight, it is considered that the NOAEL (no-observed adverse effect) level for the 13-week exposure duration is $0.11mg/m^3$.

본 연구에서는 4급 암모늄에 속하는 didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC)와 유카추출물 (Yucca extract)의 합제인 아쿠아 팜세이프$^{(R)}$의 어류 질병 병원체에 대한 살균효과를 확인하기 위하여 농림수산검역검사본부의 소독제 효력시험 중 세균 및 바이러스 소독제 효력시험에 따라 수행하였다. 소독제와 병원체를 증류수, 경수 그리고 유기물 조건에서 반응시킨 후, 중화액을 이용하여 중화시킨 다음, 중화된 용액을 배지 및 주화세포에서 접종시켜 세균의 성장 및 세포변성효과를 통해 소독제의 효력배수를 결정하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 아쿠아 팜세이프$^{(R)}$는 식중독을 일으키는 공시균주 살모넬라균 (S. typhimurim)에 비하여, 어병세균이 30~40배 이상 높은 희석농도에서 소독효과를 나타내었으며, VHSV에 대하여서는 2,000~3,600배의 유효한 효력배수를 나타내었다. 따라서, 향후, 야외적용시험을 통해 실제 적용에 따른 효과를 확인할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
