The extracts from 40 different traditional medicinal herbs were used to investigate the antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli. Among them, the extracts from Paeonia suffruticosa (PS), Siegesbeckia orientalis (SO), Schizandra chinensis (SC), Caesalpinia sappan (CS) and Rhus javanica (RJ) exhibited high antimicrobial activities against E. coli, Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the RJ extract against E. coli were 0.8 mg/ml. After heating treatment of these extracts, the antimicrobial activities against E. coli were significantly reduced in case of the CS extract. After alkaline or acid treatment of these extracts, the antimicrobial activities against E. coli were significantly increased in the PS extract but reduced in both SO and RJ extract. Since extracts from RJ and CS exhibited the highest antimicrobial activities, bacterial growth-inhibiting activities against E. coli by these two extracts were further examined. Optical density at 620 nm after 24 hours incubation of E. coli in the presence of 100, 300 or 500 ppm of RJ extract ranged from 0.1 to 0.2 compared to 0.35~0.65 in the absence of RJ extract, indicating that growth of E. coli was significantly inhibited within 24 hours by the addition of at least 100 ppm of RJ extract. Optical density at 620 nm after 24 hours incubation of E. coli in the presence of 300 or 500 ppm of CS extract ranged from 0.01 to 0.25 compared to 0.5~0.55 in the absence of CS extract, indicating that growth of E. coli was also significantly inhibited within 24 hours by the addition of at least 300 ppm of CS extract. In conclusion, these findings suggest that extracts from RJ and CS may play important roles for antimicrobial activities against E. coli causing various animal diseases.

본 연구에서는 훈제오리 슬라이스에서 Escherichia coli 유통 중 생장 예측을 위한 dynamic model을 개발하였다. E. coli는 2개의 훈제 오리 시료(16.7%) 에서 1.23 log CFU/g검출되었다. 10-30℃ 보관에 따라 E. coli의 𝜇_max는 0.05-0.36 log CFU/g/h, LPD는 4.39-1.07h, h₀ 값은 0.24-0.51을 나타내었다. 개발된 모델의 검증은 15℃, 23℃에서 수행하였다. 모델 검증 결과 RMSE값이 0.130으로 개발된 모델이 다른 온도에 적용하기에 적합하다고 판단하였다. 이러한 결과는 E. coli로 개발된 모델은 훈제오리 슬라이스에서 E. coli의 변화하는 온도에 따른 생장을 예측하는 데 유용하다.

Nalidixic acid and six other drugs were studied for in vitro effectiveness against 200 strains of Escherichia coli isolated recently from healthy persons and bactericidal activity of ampicillin against one respective strain of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi isolated were also studied. The resutlts obtained by the plate dilution method showed the following percentage of resistance: kanamycin, 2.5%; streptomycin, 12.0%; ampicillin, 13.5%; tetracyclin, 15.5%; chloramphenicol, 17.5%; colistin sulfate, 19.5%. No strains were resistant to nalidixic acid, clearly indicating that nalidixic acid is the most effective drug tested. Ampicillin, measured by test-tube diltion method, was highly bactericidal against Salmonella typhi at the concentration of 2.5mcg/ml and against Escherichia coli at 5mcg/ml.

OK serogroups of 268 cultures of Escherichia coli isolated from piglets with colibacillary diarrhea were determined by the use of the simplified routine diagnostic procedures of Sojka. The results obtained are summarised as follows: 1. Of 268 cultures of Escherichia coli tested, 190 cultures were classified into 15 OK groups and the remaining 78(29.1%) were untypable. 2. The most frequently isolated enteropathogenic E. coli in order of prevalence were 0157 : K 'Vl7' (14.2%), 0149 : K91, K88a, c (13.7%), 064 : K 'V142' (11.6%), 08 : K87, K88a, b (10.5%) and O141 : K85a, b, K88a, b (7.9%).

Corni Fructus extracts were investigated for antimicrobial and antioxidative activities. In the methanol, ethanol, water extracts from Corni Fructus, antimicrobial activity of the water extract was stronger than the others. Antimicrobial activities were strong against microorganisms such as Streptococcus mutans, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli and Escherichia coli O-157, the activity against Escherichia coli O-157 was the strongest of all the microorganisms. The growth of all the microorganisms were completely inhibited to 48 hours in the 150${\mu}\ell$ per $m\ell$ of culture media. the shape of E. coli O-157 treated with Corni Fructus water extract was expended and its cellular surface was collapsed severely. When Corni Fructus water extract of 200${\mu}\ell$ was treated, hydrogen donating effect was more than 90%, and antioxidative activity using linoleic acid was similar to 0.1% BHT at the concentration of 50${\mu}\ell$.

Escherichia coli has been used as an expression work horse for foreign genes. This article summarized recent development in genetic engineering techniques for overproduction of medical proteins and industrial enzymes. Special emphasis was placed upon research activities concerning folding and refolding of inclusion bodies at genetic and fermentation levels. Plasmid and mRNA stabilization, development of strong inducible promoters, modification of translational elements and reduction of rpoteolytic degradation were carried out to elevate an expression level of a target protein. Optimization of culture conditions, improvement of denaturation and renaturation steps and coexpression of molecular chaperones or foldase were accomplished to produce active proteins in soluble form. Fusion protein systems with selective separation and surface display technology were also performed in an effort to make the E. coli expression system more effective and versatile.

The prevalence and characterization of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants in ciprofloxacin-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from a Korean commercial layer farm were studied. A total of 45 ciprofloxacin-resistant E. coli isolates were recovered and all isolates were multidrug-resistant. Eight isolates have the PMQR genes aac(6')-Ib-cr, qnrS1, and qnrB4, and seven isolates exhibited double amino acid exchange at both gyrA and parC, and have high fluoroquinolone minimum inhibitory concentrations. Five transconjugants demonstrated transferability of PMQR and β-lactamase genes and similar antimicrobial resistance. Because PMQR genes in isolates from commercial layer chickens could enter the food supply and directly affect humans, control of ciprofloxacin resistance is needed.

Sepiapterin is a precursor for the synthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), which is a wellknown cofactor for aromatic amino acid hydroxylation and nitric oxide synthesis in higher mammals. In this study, a recombinant Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) strain harboring cyanobacterial guanosine 5’-triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH1) and human 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase (PTPS) genes was constructed to produce sepiapterin. The optimum conditions for T₇ promoter–driven expression of GCH1 and PTPS were 30℃ and 0.1 mM isopropyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside (IPTG). The maximum sepiapterin concentration of 88.1 ± 2.4 mg/l was obtained in a batch cultivation of the recombinant E. coli, corresponding to an 18-fold increase in sepiapterin production compared with the control condition (37℃ and 1 mM IPTG).

Chromosomal DNA fragments of Bacillus sp. YA-14 isolated from soil as a potent xylan hydrolyzing bacterium, were ligated to a vector plasmid, pBR322, and used to transfer Escherichia coli HB101 cells. The recombinant plasmid pYDC21 was found to enable the transformants to produce xylanase. pYDC21 was found to contain the 3 kb HindIII fragment originated from the Bacillus sp. YA-14 chromosomal DNA by southern hybridization. The optimum temperature and pH for the reaction of xylanse produced by E. coli (pYDC21) were appeared at 50$_7$C and pH 7.0, respectiveiy. the xylanase enzyme was stable between pH 5.0 and 7.0 and maintained stably up to 4$0^{\circ}C$.
