The objectives of this study were both to evaluate the level and correlations of hazardous agents and to suggest measures to control industrial hygiene problems caused by using water-soluble metalworking f1uids(MWF). Geometric mean of formaldehyde(0.039 ppm) was higher than criteria of NIOSH(0.016ppm). Formaldehyde, originally existed in the biocide, is released and used to kill microbes in soluble MWF. Microbe concentrations were above $10^4No./mL$ in 14 MWF tanks among 20 tanks surveyed. Nitrosamines that is formed by reaction of nitrosating group and amines was detected to $18.4-47.1{\mu}g/m^3$. Formaldehyde concentration was low when microbes were abundant(r=-0.67, p=0.011), and high when open tank area was wide(r=0.75. p=0.012). The significant relationship between pH and microbes(r=-0.76. p=0.003) was also observed. The predominant bacteria species in MWF were Pseudomonas spp., Bacillus spp., Comamonas testosteroni, Acinetobacter haemolyticus, Bordertella bronchiseptica in order. Therefore, hazardous agents emitted by using water-soluble MWF seems to be correlated microbial growth. In order to minimize worker's exposure to several hazardous agents by an water-soluble MWF and to increase productivity, microbial growth must be controlled to the lowest level as possible. Administrative control as well as engineering control must comprehensively be applied to control microbe's growth in water-soluble MWF.

Kacdugi fermented in the subatomospheric pressure(350mmHg) and polyethylene film package to improve the quality and to investigate the effect of fermentative control at $25^{\circ}C$. Brix degree, acidity, vitamin C content and number of total microbe and Lactobacilli was determined and also, the edible period of kacdugi was checked up by sensory assessment. The increasing rate of brix degree during kacdugi fermentation was high in the subatomospheric pressure, but decreased at the last period of fermentation as same tendency to the control, and it was preferably increased at the last period of fermentation in the polyethylene film package. However, the acidity was higher in the control than sbuatomospheric pressure but it was low in the polyethylene film package. Vitamin C content was high in the control at beginning and middle period of fermentation but high in sbuatomospheric pressure, and was low in the polyethylene film package at the last period of fermentation. The number of Lactobacilli was more in the subatomospheric pressure and polyethylene film package than the control, but it was suddenly incressed for the total microbe in the polyethylene film package at last period of fermentation. The edible periods of kacdugi by the sensory assessment of sour flavor, hardness and complex flavor was second days in the control. third days in the polyethylene film package, and fifth days in the subatomospheric pressure after soaking.

김치의 초발산도를 조절함으로써 담금초기부터 산미를 부여함과 동시에 보존성을 증대시킬 목적으로 acetic acid(A), citric acid(C), lactic acid(L), A+C+L(ACL) 및 formic acid+acetic acid+fumalic acid+malic acid+citric acid 0.2 - 0.3%를 함유하는 10% 소금물에서 절임하여 김치를 숙성시키면서 품질에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 유기산 첨가군중 특히 citric acid 첨가군은 pH의 저하와 산도의 증가율이 낮았으며, 총균수와 젖산 균수도 적었다. 그리고 경도가 가장 높고, 씹힘성은 낮았다. 관능검사 결과에 있어서도 첨가군은 담금 초기부터 적당한 산미를 부여한 반면, 숙성 후기에는 산의 생성량이 적어 타 처리군에 비하여 낮은 산미를 띠었으며, pH, 산도, 조직감 및 관능검사를 통하여 종합적으로 평가한 결과 1$0^{\circ}C$에서의 가식기간이 약 5일 이상 연장되었다.

전 세계적으로 주요 작물에서 식물 병원성 해충 및 선충으로 인한 작물 생산량 감소 등의 경제적 손실이 심각하다. 우리나라의 경우 시설 재배지의 연작으로 인해 해충과 선충의 발생이 증가하여 작물의 피해가 점차 증가하고 있는 추세다. 현재 주로 사용되고 있는 식물병원성 해충 및 선충의 방제법은 사용이 편리하고 비용이 저렴한 화학적 방제법을 이용하고 있지만 화학 농약의 남용으로 인한 약제 저항성이 발생하고, 화학 약품으로 인한 인체 유해성 및 환경오염 문제가 대두되고 있다. 이로 인해 최근 친환경적인 방제에 관한 지속적인 연구와 관심이 높아지면서 식물병원성 해충과 선충에 대하여 살충/살선충 활성을 나타내는 미생물을 생물학적 방제법으로 이용하기 위한 시도가 증가하고 있다. 본 리뷰에서는 식물병원성 해충과 선충에 대한 살충/살선충 활성을 나타내는 세균, 진균, 바이러스에 의한 살충 및 살선충 사례와 기전들을 소개하였다. 이러한 미생물의 활성은 외피 분해효소와 독소물질생산을 통한 직접적인 작용기전과 기주 식물의 저항성 유도를 통한 간접적인 작용기전에 의해서 일어난다. 본 리뷰를 통하여 선충과 해충에 대한 생물학적 방제법과 그 분자 작용기전에 대한 이해를 돕고, 최신 살충 및 살선충 연구들을 소개함으로써 국내의 농민들과 연구자들의 미생물을 기반으로 한 친환경적 해충 및 선충의 방제법에 대한 저변확대를 기대한다.

Landfarming that supplies aerobic biodegradation condition to indigenous microbes in soils is a biological remediation technology. In this research, volatilization and biodegradation rate by indigenous microbes in the soil contaminated with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) were measured. Soils were contaminated with diesel artificially and divided into two parts. One was sterilized by autoclave to remove indigenous microorganism and the other was used as it was. Various moisture contents and number of tillings were applied to the soil to find out proper condition to minimize volatilization and enhance bioremediation. Volatilization of TPH was inhibited and biodegradation was enhanced by increase on moisture content. Tilling was usually used to supply air for microbes, but tillings did not affect the growth of microbes in our study. Enough moisture content and proper aeration are important to control volatilization in landfarming. Also, TPH degradation was a function of the microbe counts (x₁), numbers of tilling (x₂), and moisture content (x₃) from the application of the response surface methodology. Statistical results showed the order of significance of the independent variables to be microbe counts > numbers of tilling > moisture content.

In order to develop a biocontrol agent that can effectively control Fusarium wilt on Cymbidium genus, the effectiveness of antagonistic microbes against the cause pathogen was screened. The selected microbe showed a broad spectrum of antifungal activity, and the culture broth of this microbe had better preventive effect on Fusarium wilt than the commercial chemical agent in the pot assay. This isolated strain, GBA-12, was identified as Streptomyces kasugaensis, and the antifungal substance was purified from a broth culture of GBA-12. This purified substance was identified as a polyene macrolide (YS-822A) that was newly discovered from Streptomyces kasugaensis, and it exhibited antifungal activity against several phytopathogenic fungi.

The recruitment of leukocytes to a site of inflammation is dependent on a complex interplay of a number of cytokines. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a potent chemoattractant for monocytes, whereas interleukin-8 (IL-8) has chemotactic activity for neutrophils, lymphocytes, and basophils. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of several microbes found in infected root canal systems on the production of inflammatoy cytokines, interleukin 8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Monocytes isolated from peripheral blood were stimulated by group A streptococci (GAS, ATCC 19615), Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212), Streptococcus mutans (ATCC 10449), Streptococcus sanguis (clinical isolate), and Candida albicans (ATCC 90029) respectively. Each of these bacteria induced dose-dependent induction in IL-8 and MCP-1 determined by ELISA. IL-8 production by each bacteria was decreased in the range of the microbe-to-PBMC ratios of 0.1-1.0. Group A streptococci was the week inducer of MCP-1 production. These results suggest that different oral pathogens induce specific dose-dependent patterns of cytokine release. Such patterns may provide a means of control of the type of immune celles particularly with regard to inflammatory leukocyte recruitment.

Plants and microorganisms (microbes) use information from chemicals such as volatile compounds to understand their environments. Proficiency in sensing and responding to these infochemicals increases an organism's ecological competence and ability to survive in competitive environments, particularly with regard to plant-pathogen interactions. Plants and microbes acquired the ability to sense and respond to biogenic volatiles during their evolutionary history. However, these signals can only be interpreted by humans through the use of state-of the-art technologies. Newly-developed tools allow microbe-induced plant volatiles to be detected in a rapid, precise, and non-invasive manner to diagnose plant diseases. Beside disease diagnosis, volatile compounds may also be valuable in improving crop productivity in sustainable agriculture. Bacterial volatile compounds (BVCs) have potential for use as a novel plant growth stimulant or as improver of fertilizer efficiency. BVCs can also elicit plant innate immunity against insect pests and microbial pathogens. Research is needed to expand our knowledge of BVCs and to produce BVC-based formulations that can be used practically in the field. Formulation possibilities include encapsulation and sol-gel matrices, which can be used in attract and kill formulations, chemigation, and seed priming. Exploitation of biogenic volatiles will facilitate the development of smart integrated plant management systems for disease control and productivity improvement.
