We have studied bioremediation of effective microorganisms on crude oil spill in Taean, west-coast of Korea. Oil contaminated soil samples were collected on December 14, 2007, seven days after the Hebei Spirit oil-spilled accident. Total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) was measured to evaluate the effectiveness of effective microorganisms (EM) which were composed with yeast, photosynthetic bacteria and lactic acid bacteria on oil degradation. TPH concentration before EM treatment was 323.8 mg/kg, whereas TPH concentrations on 2 days after EM treatment and that of control (without EM) was 102.1 mg/kg and 170.6 mg/kg, respectively. On six days after EM treatment TPH was 91.3 mg/kg and that of control was 127.7 mg/kg. Percentages of degraded crude oil were 47.3% without EM and 68.5% with EM, 60.6% without EM and 71.8% with EM on 2 and 6 days after EM treatment, respectively. These results clearly showed that the application of effective microorganisms toward oil-contaminated soil was quite useful to degrade crude oil spill. These results were derived from the effects of biostimulation of microbial media nutrients and bioaugmentation of effective microorganisms. If we carefully apply these effective microorganisms, it can be a useful bioremediation method to recover oil-contaminated marine ecosystems.

해양 생물공학은 잔존하는 기술적인, 산업적인 디딤돌 중에 가장 큰 분야라는 인식하에 선진국에서는 이미 그 생태계 대상을 육지로부터 해양으로 돌려 많은 연구결과가 축적되어 있고 좋은 결실 또한 얻고있다. 따라서 본 총설에서는 1989년 9월 3일 부터 6일 까지 일본에서 개최한 제1회 국제 해양 생물공학학회에서 소개된 연구내용을 중심으로 하여 초근의 동향을 간략하게 기술하고자 한다.

Epifluorescence microscopy and direct viable counting methods have shown that only 0.01-0.1% of all the microbial cells from marine environments form colonies on standard agar plates. To culture novel marine microorganisms, high throughput culturing (HTC) techniques were developed to isolate cells in very low nutrient media. This approaches was designed to address microbial metabolic precesses that occur at natural substrate concentrations and cell densities, which are typically about three orders of magnitude less than in common laboratory media. Approximately 5000 cultures of pelagic marine bacteria were examined over the course of 3 years. Up to 14% of cells from coastal seawater were cultured using this method, a number that is 1400 to 140-fold higher than obtained by traditional microbiological culturing techniques. Among the cultured organisms are many unique phylogenetic lineages that have been named as new phyla (7), orders (2, 5, 12), families (3), and genera (1, 4, 6). Over 90% of the cells recovered by this method do not replicate in standard agar plating, the most common method of microbial cell cultivation.

본 연구에서는 생리활성물질을 생성하는 해양미생물을 분리하기 위하여 연근해역의 해면을 조사하였다. 해면 중의 미생물은 $1.2{\times}10{\sim}2.1{\times}10^3/g$ 범위에 있었고, 이들 중 방선균은 $0.01{\sim}0.5\%$(data 생략)로 나타났다. 분리된 미생물은 각각 배양하여 항균물질을 검토하였으며, 검토하던 중에 비교적 강한 항균물질을 생산하는 균주 No. 101을 분리, 선발하였다. 선발된 균의 특징은 sclerotia로 형태가 다양하였고, 다양한 배지에서 생육이 가능하였고, 기균사의 색깔은 회백색, 배면의 색깔은 주로 회백색에서 갈색으로 나타났으며, 젤라틴 액화능과 전분 분해능을 가지나 myo-inositol은 이용하지 못하였다. 이 균의 배양학적 특성은 최적 pH 및 온도가 $6.5{\sim}7.0$ 및 $30^{\circ}C$였으며, 탄소원으로는 starch가 30g/l, 질소원으로는 casamino acid 10g/l가 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 방선균 No. 101의 균체 및 균배양액의 추출물에 대한 항균 및 항진균성에서는 Staphylococcus aureus와 Bacillus subtilis에서 강한 항균력을, 효모와 곰팡이에 대하여는 낮은 항진균성을 나타내었다.

다환방향족 탄화수소는 주요한 독성환경오염물질풍의 하나이며 해양퇴적물에 축적이 된다. 다환방향족 탄화수소가 가지고 있는 위해성으로 인해 해양퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소 제거는 많은 관심사가 되어오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다환방향족 탄화수소로 오염된 해양퇴적물의 생물정화를 위해 bioslurry reactor를 사용하기 위한 전단계로 ex situ bioremediation을 위한 최적 조건을 찾기 위해 멸균 유무의 퇴적물에서 균주접종과 혼합 cyclodextrin (M-CD)공급의 효과를 알아보았다. 비멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 분해균주의 접종여부에 상관없이 M-CD가 첨가된 실험구의 전자전달계활성이 증가되었고 멸균상태의 퇴적물에서는 분해균주가 접종되고 M-CD가 첨가된 실험구의 전자전달계활성이 증가되었다. 멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 M-CD와 함께 단일 균주가 접종되었을 때 퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소의 분해율이 9-20%로 나타났으며 동일한 조건에서 혼합균주가 접종되었을 때는 24-37%로 나타났다. 비멸균상태의 퇴적물에서 동일한 조건으로 실험하였을 때는 유의한 분해가 일어나지 않았으며 군집분석 결과 접종 균주도 감소하였다. 또한 M-CD 첨가 없이는 2일후 접종균주를 찾아볼 수 없었다. 결론적으로 퇴적물내의 다환방향족 탄화수소 제거를 위해 퇴적물내의 토착미생물과 포식자가 제거된 상태에서 적절한 탄소원과 함께 균주를 접종하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

The fucoidan from Laminaria relicollected at Wando in Korea was purified with the yield of 2.3% in mass. The monosaccharide composiof the purified fucoidan was nearly identical to that of the commercial standard: fucose 63.71 %, xylose 22.98%, galactose 6.62%, mannose 0.24%, and uronic acid 3.26%. Microorganisms capable of degrading the purified fucoidan were isolated from the colonies on the minimal medium containing 0.2% of purified fucoidan as a sole carbon source. Of these isolates, a strain showing a relatively higher capability to degrade fucoidan, up to 63%, was partially characterized as a Gram positive, aerobic, moderately halophilic marine bacterium.

This study investigated how ozone treatment can successfully inactivate pathogenic bacteria in both artificial seawater and effluents discharged from the fishery quarantine station in Pyeongtaek Port, Korea. Vibrio sp. and Streptococcus sp. were initially inoculated into the artificial seawater. All microbes were almost completely inactivated within 10 min and 30 min by injecting 6.4 mg/min and 2.0 mg/min of ozone, respectively. It was discovered that the water storing Pleuronichthys, Pelteobagrus, and Cyprinus imported from China contained the indicator bacteria, Vibrio sp., Enterococcus sp., total coliforms, and heterotrophic microorganisms. Compared to the control, three indicator bacteria were detected at two to six times higher concentrations. The water samples displayed a diverse microbial community, comprising the following four phyla: Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria. Almost all indicator bacteria were inactivated in 5 min at 2.0 mg/min of ozonation; comparatively, 92.9%-98.2% of the less heterotrophic microorganisms were deactivated within the same time period. By increasing the dosage to 6.4 mg/min, 100% deactivation was achieved after 10 min. Despite the almost complete inactivation of most indicator bacteria at high doses after 10 min, several bacterial strains belonging to the Proteobacteria have still been found to be resistant under the given operational conditions.

The Geomunoreum Lava Tube System, declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has a unique natural ecosystem. The information available about this ecosystem, which contains lava caves with secondary carbonate speleothems, is sparse. Hence, extensive research is warranted for establishing a conservation standard. We commenced microbial research on the system and have been studying the microorganisms coating the lava tube wall to acquire fundamental information for understanding the lava cave ecology of Jeju Island. Samples were collected from yellow-colored walls in six caves that are part of the system-the Bengdwi, Utsanjeon, Bukoreum, Manjang, Gimnyeong, and Yongcheon caves. This study focused on yellow walls as it is the most easily distinguished color. According to previous studies, the color of cave walls is attributed to microorganisms or their components. To determine whether the yellow mats from the Jeju lava tube walls are caused by microorganisms, we examined samples at the microscopic scale, by staining mats and analyzing bacterial isolates from glitter particles. As a result, we found that the yellow walls of lava tubes are comprised of microbial mats.
