As a research for developing biofertilizers, Klebsiella oxytoca, an associative nitrogen fixer in the rhizosphere of rice plant in the soil of paddy field, was subjected to molecular breeding. The results obtained were as followings. 1). By transforming pbIC71A, Nif A overproducing plasmid, into Klebsiella oxytoca NGl3, Klebsiell6f oxytoca SH3l, and Klebsiella oxytoca SH161, nitrogenase activities in the absence of nitrogen source in the medium were increased 6.4, 17.2, and 13.5 times, respectively, in comparison with the parent strains. 2). Nitrogenase activity of Klebgiella oxytoca NGl3, Klebsiella oxytoca SH3l, and Klebsiella oxytoca SH161 was completely repressed In the presence of 15mM NH4+. But, nitrogenase activities of Klebsiella oxytoca NGl3/PMC71A, Klebsiella oxytoca SH3l /PMC71A, and Klebsiella oxytoca SH 161/pMC714 harboring PMC71A, were 13.7%, 7.7%, and 6.2% of the nitrogenase activities in the absence of nitrogen source in the medium, respectively.

공업단지 폐수로부터 benzoate에 대하여 분해능을 보이는 균주를 분리하여 생화학적 특성과 세포 지방산 분석을 실시하여 동정한 결과 Klebsiella oxytoca로 밝혀졌다. 따라서 이 균주를 Klebsiella oxytoca strain C3O2라 명명하였으며 여러 가지 방향족 탄화수소에 대한 분해특성을 알아본 결과, benzoate 외에 catechol, protocatechuate, 4-hydroxybenzoate에 대한 분해능이 우수하였으며, 특히 benzoate와 catechol에 대하여 높은 분해능을 보였다. Klebsiella oxytoca C3O2 균주의 catechol 분해능에 대한 환경요소의 영향을 실험한 결과, $30^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.0에서 그리고 0.5~1.0 mM의 농도에서 왕성한 생장과 분해능을 보였다.

A female Chinese hamster with unknown age was referred for acute onset of anorexia, depression, and large cyst from the head to body. After referring, the patient died shortly. During necropsy, severe hemorrhage in the cyst, multiple mass on liver, and transformed right kidney were found. The infection was confirmed by cytology, cultures and PCR of 16S ribosomal RNA gene. This report describes a first case of naturally occurred systemic Klebsiella oxytoca infection in a household Chinese hamster.

Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)와 같은 carbapenem 분해효소의 급속한 증가와 보급은 의료 관련 감염 분야 내에서 주요한 문제가 되었다. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) 감염을 치료하기 위한 항생제는 거의 없으므로 내성의 박테리아 메커니즘의 확인은 감염 통제와 역학 연구에 매우 중요하다. 그러므로 KPC 균주를 검출하는 신속하고 효과적인 방법은 치료상의 실패를 피하고, 이러한 다제 내성세균의 유통을 방지 및 통제하는 대책으로 도입할 필요가 있다. 분석에 이용한 31균주에서 Acinetobacter spp. 7균주, Morganella morganii 6균주, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 5균주, Proteus mirabilis 5균주, Proteus vulgaris 1균주, Enterobacter cloacae 2균주, Enterobacter aerogenes 1균주, Klebsiella pneumoniae 1균주, Klebsiella oxytoca 1균주, Serratia marcescens 1균주, Escherichia coli 1균주를 확인하였다. 그람음성 간균이 분리된 검체의 빈도는 urine (35.5%), blood (19.4%), sputum (16.1%), pus (9.7%), ascitic fluid (9.7%), tracheal aspirates (6.5%), bile juice (3.2%) 순으로 나타났다. PCR 방법을 이용한 유전자분석 결과 bla_IMP, bla_VIM, bla_OXA-48 에서는 증폭이 확인된 균주가 없었으나, Klebsiella oxytoca 1 균주에서 bla_KPC 유전자를 확인하였다. 결론적으로, PCR 방법을 이용한 진단법은 KPC를 정확하고 신속하게 진단할 수 있으며, 그로 인해 병원 내 KPC의 전파방지를 위한 신속한 예방대책 수립이 가능하다 할 수 있다.

Nowadays, Klebsiella oxytoca is described as a causative organism for antibiotic-associated hemorrhagic colitis (AAHC). Here we report two cases of pediatric AAHC, from which K. oxytoca was cultured after starting amoxicillin-clavulanate or amoxicillin treatment. The patients developed severe abdominal pain and a large amount of bloody diarrhea. K. oxytoca was obtained in intestinal fluid culture of a boy through the colonoscopy. On the other hand, colonic tissue culture and intestinal fluid culture were negative of the other patient. K. oxytoca was detected in stool culture when he was admitted. These cases showed characteristic endoscopic findings of segmental hemorrhagic colitis, and both boys recovered spontaneously within 2-3 days after they stopped taking the antibiotics. Therefore, in children who develop relatively large amount of bloody diarrhea after antibiotic treatment, we should consider AAHC caused by K. oxytoca.

A protocol for the transformation of Klebsiella oxytoca by electroporation was developed. Preparation of competent cells at early exponential phase was most critical to obtain high transformation efficiency. The highest efficiency of 1.6$\times$106 transformants per $\mu\textrm{g}$ DNA(pBR322) could be obtained by electroporation of K. oxytoca cells prepared at the OD600 of 0.2 with 1.25$\mu\textrm{g}$ DNA at the filed strength of 2.5kV, the parallel resistance of 200$\Omega$ and capacitance of 25$\mu$F.

The aim of the present study was to isolate phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and to assess their potential tolerance to fungicides. Out of thirty PSB, two strains Klebsiella oxytoca and Enterobacter ludwigii were selected on the basis of their tolerance to fungicides. Both strains were assessed for their phosphate solubilizing ability using three different fungicides (difenoconazole, fluazinam and streptomycin) each with the concentrations of 0, 1, 2 or 3 times of the recommended rate. Both strains showed increased phosphate solubilization with difenoconazole at 1, 2 and 3 times of the recommended rate as compared to the phosphate solubilization of the control. The phosphate solubilization in Klebsiella oxytoca was recorded as 326, 538, 518 and 481 ${\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ at 0, 1, 2 and 3 times of the recommended rate respectively, whereas in Enterobacter ludwigii it was recorded as 395, 499, 529 and 533 ${\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ respectively at various doses. Based on the present findings, it may be concluded that both strains have the potential to be used as bio-inoculants which can solubilize phosphate even at the higher doses as compared to the recommended rate of fungicides.

Endosulfan degrading ability of Klebsiella oxytoca KE-8 immobilized by entrapment with activated carbon was examined. Endosulfan degradation by the immobilized bacterial strains on several different activated carbon based support materials was investigated. Based on results, activated carbon ($8\times30$ mesh) was chosen as a support material. The immobilized Klebsiella oxytoca KE-8 with the cell density of 4 mg $g^{-1}$ (dry weight) degraded 22.18 ug $ml^{-1}$ endosulfan within 5 days at pH 7.0, $30^{\circ}C$ in batch shake flask cultures. Also, we an experimented recycle packed bed column mode and continuous packed bed column mode for endosulfan degradation. Under optimum operation condition, the immobilized cells in a laboratory scale pack bed column with support beads were able to degrade endosulfan completely in defined minimal salt medium at a maximum rate of 129.6 ug $ml^{-1}$ per day. Moreover, the endosulfan degradation activity could be demonstrated at $4^{\circ}C$ for one month without significant decrease in activity. Results of this study suggest that immobilized cells of Klebsiella oxytoca KE-8 might be applicable to endosulfan contaminated site.

간동맥 거짓동맥류는 드문 질환이나 잠재적으로 생명을 위협할 수 있는 질환으로 외상 이후에 발생하는 경우가 많다. 때문에 빠른 진단과 적절한 치료가 혈복강과 같은 심각한 결과를 예방하기 위해 필수적이다. 우리는 의인적 손상 없이 Klebsiella oxytoca에 의한 간농양에 생긴 간동맥 거짓동맥류의 드문 증례를 보고하는 바이다. 이 증례의 독특한 특징은 농양 공간이 간동맥과 생긴 누공에 의해 거짓동맥류가 되었다는 점이다. 이 증례로부터 의인성 손상이 없이 환자의 임상 과정이 좋지 않은 경우 혈관 관련 합병증에 주의를 기울여야 함을 알 수 있으며 혈관 내 시술의 효과적이고 안전한 치료 방법이 될 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

Benzoate produced from the degradative pathways of various aromatic chemicals is generally recognized as a pollutant compound. However, various bacterial strains isolated as benzoate degraders have exhibited certain limits to their functions, including a loss of viability and degradability when cultivated in a broth medium for a longer time. Accordingly, immobilization techniques have been utilized to overcome such problems, and the current study examined the use of alginate and polyurethane for immobilizing Klebsiella oxytoca C302 to extend its viability and degradability of benzoate. The organism was well encapsulated by both matrices and the immobilized cells showed a high stability as regards their viability and degradability of 2 mM benzoate in a MM2 broth medium during cultivation for longer than 60 h in a semicontinuous batch system.
