호흡기 질환 환자로부터 분리된 M. pneumoniae 123 균주를 tetracycline에 저항성인 tetM 유전자만을 가진 36균주, erythromycin에만 저항성 변이를 일으킨 39균주, tetracycline과erythromycin에 저항성인 21균주, erythromycin과 tetracycline에 감수성인 27균주로 나누어 quinolone 제제와 macrolides계 항생제에 대한 감수성 검사를 시험관 희석법으로 실시하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. Tetracycline에만 저항성인 M. pneumoniae 36균주의 moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, amikacin, clarithromycin에 대한 $MIC_{90}$은 각각 0.125, 0.39, 0.125, 1.0, 1.0, 15.6과 $1.56\;{\mu}g/ml$ 이었다. Erythromycin에만 저항성인 39균주의 $MIC_{90}$은 각각 0.06, 0.39, 0.125, 1.0, 1.0, 15.6과 $25.0\;{\mu}g/ml$ 이었다. Tetracycline과 erythromycin에 모두 저항성인 21 균주의 $MIC_{90}$은 각각 0.125, 0.39, 0.125, 1.0, 1.0, 3.9,과 $1.56\;{\mu}g/ml$ 이었다. Tetracycline과 erythromycin에 모두 감수성인 27 균주의 $MIC_{90}$은 각각 0.125, 0.39, 0.125, 1.0, 1.0, 7.8과 $0.09\;{\mu}g/ml$ 이었다. 이상의 결과로 moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin 과 같은 quinolone 계 항생물질은 tetracycline이나 erythromycin에 단독 혹은 모두에 저항성인 M. pneumoniae 균주에도 감수성이었으므로 이들 균에 의한 감염증의 치료에 이용할 수 있는 약제이었으나, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin 등의 약제 선택에는 항생물질에 대한 감수성검사를 실시하여 적절한 항생제를 선택하는 등의 각별한 주의가 요망된다.

The in vitro antibacterial activity against antibiotic-resistant Propionibacterium acnes of kaempferol isolated from the Impatiens balsamina alone and in combination with erythromycin or clindamycin antibiotics was investigated. The antibiotic combination effect against antibiotic-resistant P. acnes was studied by checkerboard test. Kaempferol and quercetin demonstrated antibacterial activities against P. acnes. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for both compounds were ${\leq}32\;{\mu}g/ml\;and\;{\leq}64{\mu}g/ml$ for clindamycin-sensitive and -resistant P. acnes, respectively. The four combination formulations (kaempferol and either erythromycin or clindamycin; quercetin and either erythromycin or clindamycin) exhibited a synergic inhibition of P. acnes growth. The combination of kaempferol with quercetin showed an indifferent effect. The combination of clindamycin with kaempferol or quercetin showed a greater synergic effect than that of erythromycin with kaempferol or quercetin. Thus, these combinations demonstrated the potential to treat acne.

Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic and inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by stimulating the dissociation of the peptidyl-tRNA molecule from the ribosomes during elongation. The use of macrolides has increased dramatically over the last few years and has led to an increase in bacterial resistance to these antibiotics. Bacterial resistance to erythromycin is generally conferred by the ribosome methylation and/or transport (efflux) protein genes. Among the identified erythromycin-resistant genes, erm(B) (erythromycin methylation) and mef(A) (macrolide efflux) are generally detectable in erythromycin-resistant streptococcal species. The distribution of these genes in oral streptococcal isolates has been reported in studies from other countries but has not been previously examined in a Korean study. We here examined by PCR the presence of erm(B) and mef(A) in oral streptococci isolated from Korean dental plaques. Among the 57 erythromycin-resistant strains tested, 64.9% harbored erm(B) whereas 40.4% were positive for mef(A). Eleven isolates had both the erm(B) and mef(A) genes. Twenty six isolates had only erm(B) and 12 isolates had only mef(A). Eight of the 57 strains examined were negative for both genes.

Campylobacter species are known to the high optimum growth temperature ($42^{\circ}C$) and the cause of enteritis in people. Erythromycin has a curative effect for enteritis caused by the bacteria. However, the rate of erythromycin-resistant bacteria was not well known until recently in Korea. Swine are one of sources of the infection with a Campylobacter species which cause the symptom of a high temperature. In this study, we cultured rectum fecal specimens of 100 pigs in an area of Buan-gun, Jeonbuk Province during July 2009. As a result, the detection rate of C. jejuni and C. coli and the rate of erythromycin-resistant bacteria for the separated Campylobacter species on the condition of high temperature were investigated. The possession or not of hipO and glyA gene and ciprofloxacin-resistant gene gyrA was also reviewed with biochemical characteristics and PCR.

We determined the resistance rates of pathogenic bacteria isolated from cultured olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus to erythromycin (Em), antibiotic typically used in aquaculture and analyzed the genotypes of resistant bacteria using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). We isolated and utilized 160 isolates of Streptococcus parauberis, 1 of S. iniae, 66 of Edwardsiella tarda, 56 of Vibrio sp. and 23 of unidentified bacteria from presumed infected olive flounder from Jeju Island from March 2016 to October 2017. Of the 306 isolated strains, Em-resistant strains included 33 of S. parauberis, 39 of E. tarda and 2 of Vibrio sp. We conducted PCR to assess the resistance determination of Em-resistant strains. Five different types of Em-resistance genes were detected in the 74 Em-resistant strains: erm (A), erm (B), erm (C), mef (A) and mef (E); erm (A) and erm (B) were detected in 1 (3%) and 24 (72.7%) S. parauberis isolates, respectively. In E. tarda, erm (B) was detected in five isolates (12.8 %) and no Em-resistance genes were detected in the two Vibrio sp. isolates.

2002년 2월부터 2005년 4월까지 호흡기질환 환자로부터 분리된 M. pneumeniae 123 균주의 tetracycline과 erythromycin에 대한 MIC 범위는 각각 $0.5\~1.0$, and $0.5\~512{\mu}/ml$ 이었다. 분리된 M. pneumoniae 123 균주에서 plasmid DNA는 확인되지 않았다. 분리된 M. pneumoniae 123 균주 중에서 57($46.3\%$) 균주가 tetracycline에 저항성인 tetM유전자를 가지고 있었으며, 235 rRNA domain V에 erythromycin에 저항성 변이를 일으킨 균주가 60($48.8\%$)이었다. erythromycin에 저항성 변이를 일으키지 않은 63균주 중에서 tetM 유전자를 가지고 있는 균주는 36($57.1\%$)이었으며, erythromycin에 저항성 변이를 일으킨 60균주 중에서 21($35.0\%$ 균주가 tetM 유전자를 가지고 있었다. 본 연구로써 국내에서 tetracycline과 erythromycin에 대한 저항성 M. pneumoniae 균주의 분리율이 외국에 비하여 높으며, M. pneumoniae 감염의 치료에 erythromycin이 일차 선택제가 될 수 없으므로 이에 대한 범국가적 조사가 필요하다고 생각된다.

호흡기질환 환자의 상기도 도말물로 부터 분리 동정된 M. pneumoniae 116균주의 moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin minocycline, erythromycin, josamycin, and tetracycline에 대한 감수성 검사를 실시하였다. 각 항생물질에 대한 저항성 균주의 기준은 $MIC{\pm}1.0$ ${\mu}g/ml$ 로 하였으며, 초기 MIC와 최종 MIC를 구분하여 다제 저항성 균주의 분포를 분석하였다. 초기 MIC의 결과로 분리된 균주의 단일 약제에 대한 저항성은 ciprofloxacin이 79.3%, ofloxacin이 53.5%, clarithromycin이 10.3%, erythromycin이 7.8%이었으며, 2가지 약제에 저항성은 ofloxacin과 ciprofloxacin이 42.2%, ciprofloracin과 clarithromycin이 9.5%이었으며, 3가지 약제에 저항성은 erythromycin, ofloxacin과 ciprofloxacin이 6.9%, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin과 clarithromycin이 6.0%이었다. 최종 MIC의 결과로 분리균의 단일 약제에 대한 저항성은 tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin이 각각 91.4%, minocycline이 89.7%, erythromycin이 68.1%, josamycin이 52.6%, clarithromycin이 28.5%, sparfloxacin이 11.2%이었으며, 2가지 약제에 저항성인 균의 분포는 $20.7{\sim}91.4%$, 3가지약제에 저항성인 규의 분포는 &28.5{\sim}89.7%$, 4가지 약제에 저항성인 균의 분포는 2.6%, 5가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $2.6{\sim}21.6%$, 6가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $0.9{\sim}24.1%$이었으며, 7가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $0.9{\sim}2.6%$이었으며, 8종류 약제에 저항성인 균도 1.7%있었다. 이상의 결과로 국내에서 분리된 M. pneumoniae 균주는 적게는 1-4 종류의 항생제에, 많게는 5-8 종류의 항생제에 저항성인 균주가 있으므로 마이코플라스마폐렴 환자를 치료할때는 macrolide계나 quinolone계의 항생제 선택에 신중을 기하여야 하며, 가급적이면 항생제 감수성 검사를 실시하여 적절한 항생제를 선택함으로써 저항성균의 출현율을 줄일 수 있고 효율적인 치료도 할 수 있도록 하여야 할 것으로 생각된다.

The clinical isolate Staphylococcus aureus SA2 was resistant to ampicillin, Chloramphenicol, clindamycin, erythromycin, gentamicin, kanamycin, methicillin, streptomycin, and tobramycin and harboured more than two kinds of plasmids. Transformation experiment demonstrated that 40.98-kb plasmid(pKH2) encoded resistance to ampicillin, clindamycin, erythromycin, kanamycin, and streptomycin. The cleavage map of a pKH2 was determined by restriction enzyme mapping techniques. Cleavage map is given for BamHI, BglI, BstEII, SalI and XhoI.
