BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to isolate and identify algicidal bacterium that tends to kill the toxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium catenella, and to determine the algicidal activity and algicidal range of algicide. METHODS AND RESULTS: Among of algicidal bacteria isolated in this study, NH-3 isolate was the strongest algicidal activity against A. catenella. NH-3 isolate was identified on the basis of biochemical characteristics and analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences. The NH-3 isolate showed over 99% homology with Arthrobacter oxydans, and was designated as Arthrobacter sp. NH-3. The optimal culture conditions were $25^{\circ}C$, initial pH 7.0, and 2.0% (w/v) NaCl concentration. The algicidal activity of Arthrobacter sp. NH-3 was significantly increased to maximum value in the late of logarithmic phase. Arthrobacter sp. NH-3 showed algicidal activity through indirect attack, which excreted active substance into the culture filtrate. When 10% culture filtrate of NH-3 was applied to A. catenella, 100% of algal cells were destroyed within 30 h. In addition, the algicidal activities were increased in dose and time dependent manners. The pure algicide was isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the culture filtrate of NH-3 by using silica gel column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). We investigated the algicidal activity of this algicide on the growth of harmful algal bloom (HAB) species, including A. catenella. As a result, it showed algicidal activity against several HAB species at a concentration of $100{\mu}g/mL$ and had a relatively wide host range. CONCLUSION: Taken together, our results suggest that Arthrobacter sp. NH-3 and its algicide could be a candidate for controlling of toxic and harmful algal blooms.

In this study, a newly synthesized thiazolidinedione derivative, TD49 with a highly selective algicide to red tide, was examined in order to evaluate the bioconcentration on aquatic organisms of coast. BAF (accumulation of TD49 by aquatic food chain) and BCF (accumulation of TD49 by sea water) were examined employing the shrimp (Fenneropenaeus chinensis) as the feed organism, and the olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus as a consumer in marine ecosystem. Bioconcentration degree in sea water showed that the order in P. olivaceus was viscera > gill > muscle. The average BCF values of TD49 were 67.70, 63.32 and 20.25 at viscera, gill and muscle, respectively. Bioaccumulation degree using feed showed that the order in the organs of P. olivaceus was viscera > gill > muscle. The average BAF values of TD49 were 175.89, 114.88 and 32.59 at viscera, gill and muscle, respectively. When compared with two results, the accumulation by the food and water was higher than that by water. After the elimination experiment in sea water, the TD49 concentration was 2.81 nmole/g in the viscera and were not found in the gill and the muscle. More than 50% of the accumulated TD49 were eliminated from viscera in 7 days and all the accumulated TD49 were eliminated from gill and muscle in 7 days. On the other hand, the octanol/water partition coefficient (log $K_{ow}$) was measured to be 3.66 and experimental BCF of this study was 67.7.

Cell-free culture broth of marine halophilic bacterium, Kordia algicida was shown to possess specific algicidal ability against red tide organism, Cochlodinium polykrikides. Physiochemical characteristics of algicidal material originated in the bacterial culture broth were analyzed that its molecular weight was estimated to a 3,000 dalton and it was stable in heat and pH treatment. The algicidal fraction against C. polykrikoides obtained from gel permeable chromatography contained high concentration of ammonium ion as analyzed by ICP/Mass spectrum. C. polykrikoides by the fraction was quickly lysed within 1 min. It was shown that the effective concentration for algicide against C. polykrikoides was over 1mM of ammonium chloride. On the other hand, other metal ions presented in the algicidal fraction showed no algicidal effect against C. polykrikoides. In additon, ammonium ion exhibited species-specific killing spectrum for two species of red tide organisms, C. polykrikoides and Gymnodinium sanguieum. Therefore, further researches on the killing mechanism against C. polykrikoides exerted by ammonium ion, and subsequent development of replaceable algicidal materials will perform to provide useful tools for the control of red tide.

본 연구는 새로운 환경친화적 살조제를 탐색하기 위한 연구의 일환으로, 담수에서 조류 대발생 원인종 Microcystis aeruginosa.를 대상으로 하여 국내에 자생하는 9가지 참나무 잎과 줄기로부터 추출한 물질의 조류생장 억제능력을 조사하였다. 추출물 농도 100 mg $L^{-1}$ 첨가시, 5가지 참나무 추출물 (QAT-L, QAT-S, QAS-L, QGI-S 및 QSA-L)은 M. aeruginosa의 7일 후 세포수를 90% 이상 감소시켰다. 20 mg $L^{-1}$의 경우에는 상기의 5가지 참나무 추출물에서 M. aeruginosa의 세포수가 약 50% 정도 감소하였다. M. aeruginosa를 효과적으로 제어하기 위한 참나무 추출물의 최소 농도는 20 mg $L^{-1}$로 조사되었다. 참나무의 주요 성분으로 알려져 있는 tannic acid는 17 mg $L^{-1}$의 농도에서 M. aeruginosa에 대한 억제효과를 나타냈다. 본 연구를 통해서 참나무 추출물은 부영양 수계에서 조류 대발생 원인종 M. aeruginosa를 제어하는 환경친화적 살조제로서 이용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In order to perform an acute toxicity assessment of a new algicide, thiazolidinedione derivative (TD53) with enhanced solubility and lower toxicity to marine ecosystem, representative 3 organisms: plant plankton (Skeletonema costatum), animal plankton (Daphnia magna), fish (Paralichthys olivaceus) related in the food chain of marine ecosystem according to OECD standard methods were employed in the exposure experiment. The exposure assessment showed that $EC_50$ of S. costatum in 96-hour, $EC_50$ of D. magna in 48-hour and $LC_50$ of P. olivaceus in 72-hour for TD53 were $1.53\;{\mu}M$, $0.61\;{\mu}M$ and $2.14\;{\mu}M$ respectively. NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration) and PNEC (Predicted No Effect Concentration) were calculated to be $0.25\;{\mu}M$ and 6.10 nM, respectively from $EC_50$ of most sensitive strain, D. magna. Comparing with the results of toxicity assessment previously performed by using Ulva pertusa Kjellman accepted as an ISO standard method, the values of PNEC showed 3.7 times lower toxicity in case of this study employing 3 organisms, indicating that if the organisms which are more representative and sensitive in marine ecosystem are further investigated, more accurately and validly predicted toxicity of TD53 could be applied in field.

The potential of calcium peroxide to act as an agent for waterblooming control was In-vestigated by examining the growth inhibition of Microcystis aerusinosa. Due to the chemical nature of calcium peroxide, it can remove dissolved phosphate by forming an Insoluble precipitate, generating radicals, coagulant, and oxygen as byproducts as it dissolves in water. The growth of M. aerusinosa was severely inhibited and the chlorophyll-n concentration was drastically decreased in the presence of calcium peroxide. With 200 ppm of calcium peroxide dosage, a chlorophyll-a concentration of 1,700 mg/m$^3$ was lowered to below 10% of its initial concentration after 4 days. One possible explanation for this growth Inhibition is the removal of the available phosphate by calcium peroxide.

유해 남조류를 친환경적으로 제어하기 위해 개발된 생물유래 물질인 naphthoquinone (NQ) 유도체의 현장 적용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 기흥 저수지 수변에 30 ton 규모의 mesocosm을 설치하여 현장 조건에서의 살조효과와 비생물학적, 생물학적 요인을 모니터링하였다. NQ 2-0 물질을 처리한 결과, 대조구에서는 대상 조류인 Microcystis sp.의 세포밀도가 지속적으로 증가한 반면, 처리구에서는 실험 초기 $7.9{\times}10^4cells\;mL^{-1}$에서 접종 후 점진적으로 세포수가 감소하여 10일차 $9.7{\times}10^2cells\;mL^{-1}$으로 대조구 대비 99.4% 감소하였다. 실험 종료시인 15일차에는 Microcystis sp. 세포수가 100% 제거되었다. 대상 조류인 Microcystis sp. 종만을 선택적으로 제어하였을 뿐만 아니라, 다른 식물플랑크톤의 성장과 식물플랑크톤 종 다양성 지수도 증진되었다. 또한, 식물플랑크톤을 제외하고 NQ 2-0 물질에 의하여 물리 화학적요인 (수온, 용존 산소, pH, 전기전도도, 영양염)과 생물요인 (박테리아, HNFs, 섬모충, 동물플랑크톤)에 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 대조구와 처리구에서 유사한 경향이 관찰되었다.

전세계적으로 연안해역에서 확산되고 있는 유해유독성 식물플랑크톤의 대발생은 수산자원생물자원에 심각한 피해를 입힌다. 본 연구에서는 유해성 미세조류 대발생을 제어하기 위해 개발된 신물질 Thiazolidinedione 유도체(TD49)의 살조능을 유해성 미세조류 성장단계(초기성장기, 대수증식기, 안정기)에 따라 조사하였다. TD49는 $Heterosigma$ $akashiwo$, $Chattonella$ $marina$ 그리고 $Chattonella$ sp.의 세포를 사멸시켰으며, 특히 낮은 농도($0.02{\mu}M$)의 TD49는 대수증식기와 안정기보다 초기 성장기에서 우수한 살조효과를 보였다. 또한 모든 성장단계에서 유해생물을 제어 할 수 있는 TD49의 농도는 $2{\mu}M$로 측정되었다. 무각 편모조류인 $Heterosigma$ $akashiwo$, $Chattonella$ $marina$ 그리고 $Chattonella$ sp.은 세포벽이 약하여 TD49물질에 의해 세포가 쉽게 파괴되어 우수한 살조효과를 보였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서 개발된 Thiazolidinedione 유도체(TD49)는 유해적조생물 $H.$ $akashiwo$, $C.$ $marina$ 그리고 $Chattonella$ sp.를 제어할 수 있는 우수한 물질로 판단되었으나, 추후 현장 실용을 위해 메소코즘과 같은 인공생태계를 이용한 해양생태계 위해성 평가가 체계적으로 추진되어야 한다.

본 연구는 마이크로코즘에서 적조생물 Cochlodinium polykrikoides을 살조하기 위해 사용된 화학물질과 황토의 처리 후 미소생물그룹의 단주기 변화를 파악하였다. 황토 4g 과 10g에서 적조생물의 살조효과는 20%이하로 낮게 관찰된 반면, 화학물질(TD49)의 $0.8{\mu}M$ 에서는 대상생물이 85%이상 제어되었다. 미소생물그룹에서 박테리아는 모든 실험군에서 조사 1일 후 현저하게 증가하였고, 2일 후 가장 높게 관찰된 후 점차적으로 감소하는 경향을 관찰하였다. 대조적으로 종속영양편모충은 조사 3-5일 경과 후 현저하게 높게 증가하였다. TD49처리군에서 박테리아가 2일후 점차적으로 감소한 것은 포식자인 HNF의 증가로 기인된 것으로 파악되었다. 또한 피각을 형성하지 않는 섬모충 Uronema sp.,의 증가는 박테리아의 증가 후 2-3일의 시간차를 두고 반응하는 특색을 관찰하였다. 즉 이는 적조생물이 살조된 후 분해되는 과정에서 박테리아의 현저한 증식을 일으켰고, 이와 함께 포식자 HNF와 Uronema sp.는 일정의 시간차를 두고 높은 개체수를 유지 한 것으로 판단되었다. 이와 같은 경향은 살조물질 TD49처리군에서 두드려졌다. 특히. 사이즈가 큰 무각섬모충 Euplotes sp. 개체수는 HNF와 Uronema sp.의 현저한 증가 후 높게 관찰되는 특성을 보였다. 결과적으로 살조제 TD49물질은 미소생물그룹에 긍정적인 효과를 가져왔고, 이는 박테리아, HNFs 섬모충으로 이어지는 먹이망의 에너지 흐름이 효율적으로 작용하고 있다는 것을 시사할 수 있었다.

A thiazolidinedione derivative, TD49 with the highly selective algicide to red tide was newly synthesized and its acute toxicity was examined in order to evaluate the effect on aquatic ecosystems of coast. Major three species having important role in the food chain of marine ecosystem, such as Skeletonema costatum of microalgae, Daphnia magna of crustacea, Paralichthys olivaceus of flatfish fingerling were employed for the acute toxicity assessment. $EC_50$ or $LC_50$ as the assessment criterion was investigated to each specie, and NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration) and PNEC (Predicted No Effect Concentration) from most sensitive specie to toxicity of TD49 were further calculated. $EC_50$ of S. costatum in 96-hour, $EC_50$ of D. magna in 48-hour, and $LC_50$ of P. olivaceus in 72-hour for TD49 were $0.34\;{\mu}M$, $0.68\;{\mu}M$, and $0.58\;{\mu}M$, respectively. NOEC from the results of S. costatum was estimated to be $0.20\;{\mu}M$ and PNEC was estimated as 3.40 nM by applying factor value of 100 to $EC_50$ $0.34\;{\mu}M$ of S. costatum. In addition, it was revealed that Solutol used as the dispersing agent of TD49 had very little toxic influence under the concentration range of $0{\sim}0.4\;{\mu}M$ used in TD49 toxicity experiment. Although the estimated concentration of TD49 that will be sprayed onto the coastal field for the algicide is higher than NOEC value, it is considered that the spraying concentration would not be a considerable problem due to a dilution effect by tide at the opened coast.
