There are many of anaerobic culture methods and equipments for isolation and cultivation of anaerabic bacteria, but most of these methods are used without pre-reduced media. Gas-jet method is a recommend. able method for the culture of anaerobes, resently developed. Bacteriological studies were experimented of liver abscess of cattle by the use of gas. jet method. The results were summarised as follows; 1. Gas-jet method for anaerobic culture are expedient for the making of pre-reduced media, maintaining of oxygen free condition in the culture tube, picking of bacteria from colony and colony counting etc. 2. A 121 strains of facultative anaerobic and anaerobic bacteria were isolated from liver abscess of 27 head of cattle, and the isolated anaerobic bacteria were as follows. Peptostreptococcus spp. 7 strains Acid aminococcus fermentans 1 Veillonella spp. 1 Bacterioides spp. 6 Bifidobacterium spp. 4 Arachinia propionica 2 Lactobacillus spp. 4 Propionibacterium acnes 1 3. Liver abscess were infected with many of bacteria, about $10^3-10^9$ numbers per gram of abcessed tissue. Almost of abscess were mixed infection of various bacterial species rather than simple species.

There are many advantages when using IIF and DNA probe methods over anaerobic culture method in that they are time-and effort-saving, more precise and more sensitive. Furthermore, in IIF and DNA probe methods, the detection is possible only with small amount of bacteria, the quantitative analysis is possible, and the cell viability is not necessary. The purpose of this study is to observe the incidence of P.endodontalis by carrying out anaerobic culture, IIF and colony lift using DNA probe method respectively, and to compare these 3 methods in terms of effectiveness and sensitivity in order to identify the most effective detection method. 30 teeth with at least one clinical symptoms, with single canal, and with pulp necrosis were sampled. For sampling bacteria, access cavity was prepared after disinfecting tooth and its surroundings. Then the paper point was inserted up to the periapical area, leave there for a while, and finally it was placed into PRAS Ringer's sol. and PBS sol. In anaerobic culture method, P.endodontalis was identified by biochemical tests after subculturing black and brown colonies which were produced after 7 days of incubation on BAP and Brucella BAP in anaerobic chamber. To identify P.endodontalis in IIF method, species-specific polyclonal rabbit-antisera of P.endodontalis(ATCC 35406) was reacted with sampled PBS sol. dispensed onto glass slide, and then P.endodontalis was examined by phase contrast microscopy after incubating with Goat anti-rabbit lgG conjugated to Fluorescein isothiocyanate. For colony lift using DNA probe method, membranes were laid over colonies on the surface of BAP and were hybridized with cloned DNA probe of P.endodontalis. The existence of P.endodontalis was then identified by the methods of chemiluminescent detection and color metric detection. Black colony was found in 11 teeth out of 30 teeth and P.endodontalis was detected in 6 teeth (20 %) by anaerobic culture method, 16 teeth (53 %) by IIF method, and 7 teeth (23 %) by DNA probe method. IIF method is significantly better in detecting P.endodontalis than DNA probe method and anaerobic culture method. There was no significant differences between DNA probe method and anaerobic culture method. There was significant correlation between the formation of black colony and the existence of P.endodontalis. The probability of detecting P.endodontalis when black colony being present is 2.89 times higher than when not being present. There was significant relationship between the foul odor of clinical symptoms and P.endodontalis. The sensitivity of existing P.endodontalis when foul odor being present was 93.75 %, while the specificity of not existing P.endodontalis when foul odor not being present was 28.57 %. These results suggested that the probes of P.endodontalis will be used to decide the method and prognosis in endodontic treatments.

The metabolomic profile of the anaerobic fungus Piromyces sp. F1, isolated from the rumen of goats, and how this is affected by the presence of naturally associated methanogens, was analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The major metabolites in the fungal monoculture were formate, lactate, ethanol, acetate, succinate, sugars/amino acids and ${\alpha}$-ketoglutarate, whereas the co-cultures of anaerobic fungi and associated methanogens produced citrate. This is the first report of citrate as a major metabolite of anaerobic fungi. Univariate analysis showed that the mean values of formate, lactate, ethanol, citrate, succinate and acetate in co-cultures were significantly higher than those in the fungal monoculture, while the mean values of glucose and ${\alpha}$-ketoglutarate were significantly reduced in co-cultures. Unsupervised principal components analysis revealed separation of metabolite profiles of the fungal mono-culture and co-cultures. In conclusion, the novel finding of citrate as one of the major metabolites of anaerobic fungi associated with methanogens may suggest a new yet to be identified pathway exists in co-culture. Anaerobic fungal metabolism was shifted by associated methanogens, indicating that anaerobic fungi are important providers of substrates for methanogens in the rumen and thus play a key role in ruminal methanogenesis.

20세기에 들어 산업, 군사 및 다양한 목적으로 비인화성 용매인 PCE와 TCE의 사용량이 증대하였다. 주의를 필요로 하는 물질임에도 불구하고 부주의한 사용과 보관으로 인해 토양, 퇴적토, 지하수에 심각하게 오염되었다. High-chlorinated ethenes은 호기성 박테리아의 oxygenation에 의해 분해되지 않는다. PEC및 TCE의 완전한 탈염소화는 혐기성조건에서만 관찰되어지며, 지난 10연년간의 연구에 의해서 탈염소화 혐기성 미생물의 수의 보고는 증가되었다. 혐기성 조건에서 탈염소화 미생물에 의해 PCE와 TCE는 less-chlorinated ethenes 또는 무해한 ethene으로 전환이 가능하다. 본 연구는 lactate를 electron donor로 이용해 PCE에서 ethene까지 완전히 탈염소화하는 혐기성 배양을 수행했다. PCE로 오염된 퇴적토 시료로부터 혐기성 미생물 배양을 성공했다. PCE가 ethene까지 완전히 분해되는 것이 관찰되었다. 추가적으로 혐기성 미생물 배양액에서 1,2-cis-dichloroethene (cis-DCE)와 vinyl chloride (VC)의 축적이 일어남을 관찰하였다. 혐기성 미생물 배양액에서 Dehalococcoides 16S rRNA gene sequences에 특이적으로 반응하는 primer를 이용한 DGGE를 통해 미생물 군집을 분석하였다. 결론적으로, 우리의 연구에서 PCE를 감소시키는 배양액을 배양했으며, 이 배양엑에는 Dehalococcoides sp. 존재하는 것을 확인하였다.

Tetrachloroethylene(PCE) dechlorination was investigated in an anaerobic enrichment culture from landfill soil. Anaerobic PCE dechlorinating microorganisms could convert 150mg/L of PCE via trichloroethylene(TCE) to cir-1,2-dichloroethylene(CDCE) within 2 days at the optimum temperature of 30 to 35$^{\circ}C$. The enrichment culture could dechlorinate TCE but did not degrade other chlorinated aliphatic compounds, such as cDCE, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethane, 1,2-dichloro- ethane, and 1,1,1-trichloroethane during 5 days incubation. Several isolates from the enrichment culture did not show dechlorinating activity of PCE. Microbial analysis of the dechlorinating enrichment culture by using Polymerase chain reaction-Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) method showed that at least three microorganisms were related to the anaerobic PCE dechlorination in the enrichment

Isolation and identification of anaerobic bacteria from blood cultures are still technically demanding procedures. Recently, with the use of gas liquid chromatography, the accuracy of identification is much improved. However, there has never been a satisfactory data analysis on anaerobic bacteremia in Korea. The authors evaluated both the clinical and the bacteriological data of 129 anaerobic bacteremias found at the Yonsei Medical Center during the period of 1973 to 1984. The most frequently isolated anaerobic bacteria were Bacteroides (52.7%), among which the major species was B. fragilis (38.7%). Incidence of anaerobic bacteremia by sex was 57% in male and 43% in female. Mortality was higg in groups below 1-year old and above 50-year old. The cause of death seemed closely correlated with the patient's age, general condition and the severity of the underlying disease. Various neoplasms were the most common (20%) underlying diseases predisposing the anaerobic bacteremia. Biliary tract was considered the most frequent route of infection in anaerobic bacteremia. The frequent clinical signs in anaerobic bacteremia were fever (65%), followed by liver function abnormality (29%), jaundice (20%) and hypotention(18%). When analysis of positive rate of blood culture was made on the patients from whom 4 cultures were done within 24 hours, it was found that 33% of the samples were positive. Isolation rate of anaerobic bacteria in thioglycollate medium was 83.8%, while it was 44% in Tryptic soy broth. Among the anaerobic bacteremia, 25.4% were polymicrobial infections with aerobic bacteria (92.5%), such as E. coli(33.3%). From these studies, it is concluded that B. fragilis is the most important causative organism in anaerobic bacteremia, with high fatality, particularly in those who have underlying diseases. The ports of entry are mainly biliary, gastrointestinal and female genital tract. Fever is the most frequent clinical sign. Single blood culture is not sufficient to detect all anaerobic bacteremia, therefore more cultures with optimal time interval are needed. The incidence of polymicrobial infection in anaerobic bacteremia is higher than that in overall bacteremia.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) has been widely used to valorize food waste (FW) because of its ability to convert organic carbon into $CH_4$ and $CO_2$. Korean FW has a high content of fruits and vegetables, and efficient hydrolysis of less biodegradable fibers is critical for its complete stabilization by AD. This study examined the digestates from different anaerobic digesters, namely Rs, Rr, and Rm, as the inocula for the AD of vegetable waste (VW) and cellulose (CL): Rs inoculated with anaerobic sludge from an AD plant, Rr inoculated with rumen fluid, and Rm inoculated with anaerobic sludge and augmented with rumen fluid. A total of six conditions ($3\;inocula{\times}2\;substrates$) were tested in serial subcultures. Biogas yield was higher in the runs inoculated with Rm than in the other runs for both VW (up to 1.10 L/g VS added) and CL (up to 1.05 L/g VS added), and so was biogas production rate. The inocula had different microbial community structures, and both substrate type and inoculum source had a significant effect on the formation and development of microbial community structures in the subcultures. The overall results suggest that the bioaugmentation with rumen microbial consortium has good potential to enhance the anaerobic biodegradability of VW, and thereby can help more efficiently digest high fiber-content Korean FW.

OSA (oxic-settling-anaerobic)공정은 종래 활성슬러지법(conventional activated sludge)의 잉여슬러지 감량을 목적으로 슬러지 반송라인에 혐기조가 추가된 공정이다. 본 연구에서는 호기조(1)-혐기조-호기조(2)가 순차적으로 구성된 OSA 모의공정의 슬러지 감량원리를 조사하기 위해 각 반응조의 세포 내 에너지 전달물질(ATP, NAD(H), NADP(H)) 변화를 관찰하였다. 시간이 경과함에 따라 호기조 및 혐기조 모두 에너지전달물질이 급격히 감소하였다. 혐기조의 경우 호기조(1)과 (2)보다 낮은 에너지를 함유하는 것으로 나타났으며, 혐기조를 거친 호기조(2)의 경우 호기조(1) 보다 에너지 전달물질이 낮은 수준으로 관찰되었다. 또한, OSA 공정에서 내생호흡을 유도하여 슬러지를 감량하는 혐기조의 화학적 산소요구량 (SCOD), 체류시간 및 온도변화에 따른 호기조(1)과 (2)의 에너지량 차이를 확인한 결과 낮은 농도의 SCOD, 긴 체류시간 및 높은 온도는 호기조(2)의 세포 내 에너지량을 감소시켰다. 혐기조 및 호기조(2)의 세포 내 에너지 수준은 각각 호기조(1)의 57.73% 및 39.12% 수준으로, 두 단계의 호기조 사이에 추가된 혐기조는 OSA 공정의 세포 내 에너지 수준을 낮출 뿐 아니라, CAS 공정보다 적은 양의 슬러지가 생산하였다. 본 연구결과를 토대로, 호기조 사이에 추가된 혐기조의 운전조건에 따라 각 반응조의 세포 내 에너지 수준의 조절뿐만 아니라 잉여슬러지의 생성을 제어할 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.
