Non-typhoid salmonella감염질환은 악성 종양, 당뇨병, 스테로이드의 장기사용 등 면역 기능이 저하된 환자에서 흔히 균혈증과 동반되어 드물게 보고되고 있다. 그중에 non-typhoid salmonella에 의한 농흉과 심낭염의 합병 발생은 극히 드물다. 저자들은 흉막 전이가 동반된 악성 흉선종 환자에서 Group D salmonella 감염으로 인한 농흉과 심낭염이 합병되었던 예를 치험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고한다.

To develop a live vaccine strain against fowl typhoid and paratyphoid caused by Salmonella serovar Gallinarum biovar Gallinarum (Salmonella Gallinarum) and Salmonella serovar Enteritidis (Salmonella Enteritidis), respectively, several nalidixic acid resistant mutants were selected from lipopolysaccharide (LPS) rough strains of Salmonella Gallinarum that escaped from fatal infection of a LPS-binding lytic bacteriophage. A non-virulent and immunogenic vaccine strain of Salmonella Gallinarum, SR2-N6, was established through in vivo pathogenicity and protection efficacy tests. SR2-N6 was highly protective against Salmonella Gallinarum and Salmonella Enteritidis and safer than Salmonella Gallinarum vaccine strain SG 9R in the condition of protein-energy malnutrition. Thus, SR2-N6 may be a safe and efficacious vaccine strain to prevent both fowl typhoid and paratyphoid.

In this study the isolation and characterization of three bacteriophages (ST4, L13, and SG3) infecting Salmonella gallinarum were carried out. They were further tested for their in vivo efficacy in phage therapy. All three phages belong to the Siphoviridae family with isometric heads and non-contractile tails. They have a broad host range among serovars of Salmonella enterica. The burst sizes were observed to be 1670, 80, and 28 for ST4, L13, and SG3, respectively. The in vivo efficacy of the phages was tested in chickens. Layer chickens were challenged with S. gallinarum, whereas contact chickens were cohabited without direct challenge. Each bacteriophage was orally inoculated in the form of feed additives. Mortality was observed and S. gallinarum was periodically re-isolated from the livers, spleens, and cecums of the chickens. Bacterial re-isolation from the organs and mortality decreased significantly in both challenged and contact chickens treated with the bacteriophages compared with untreated chickens serving as the control. The three bacteriophages may be effective alternatives to antibiotics for the control of fowl typhoid disease in chickens.

To investigate the specificity of rapid slide agglutination test for pullorum-gallinarum diseases and to obtain a basic data for avian salmonellosis control, salmonella isolation was peformed for the layer chickens positively reacted in pullonlm-typhoid agglutination test. The biochemical, serological and antimicrobial properties of the isolates were examined. The results obtained through this study were summarized as follows; 1. Of 2,384 chickens tested by the agglutination test, 606 chickens (25.4%) were positive reactors. 154 of 606 reactors and 49 of the non-reacting chickens were investigated for salmonella isolation, resulting in isolation of 68 strains of salmonellae from 27 chickens. 2. By organs, the isolation frequency from liver, cecum, spleen, ovary and gall bladder showed 8.9% (18 strains), 8.9% (18 strains), 7.4% (15 strains), 4.4% (9 strains) and 3.9% (8 strains), respectively. 3. By culture medium the combination of selenite broth and MacConkey agar revealed the highest isolation rate and the enrichment culture by delayed secondary enrichment culture method was found the most effective for salmonella isolation. 4. The serotypes of 68 salmonella isolates were identified as 3 strains of S pullorum, 24 strains of S gallinarum, 15 strains of S typhimurium, 8 strains of S enteritidis, 7 strains of S paratyphi A, 5 strains of S typhimurium and 6 strains of the other salmonellae. 5. The serotypes of 8 salmonella strains isolated from 49 chickens non-reacting in pullorum-typhoid agglutination test were identified as 3 strains of S typhimurium and 5 strains of S infantis. 6. When 24 chickens of which 68 strains of salmonellae isolated were examined by microplate agglutination test, the average antibody titer for pullorum antigen was $2^{5.25}$. The chickens at antibody titer between $2^3$ and $2^5$ showed the higher frequency of isolation as compared with the chickens at the other titers. 7. When salmonella isolates were tested the antimicrobial drug sensitivity by disk diffusion method, S paratyphi A were highly sensitive by 100% to ATM and GM, S typhimurium, by 88% to AM, CIP, IMP and TN, S infantis, by 100% to AM, CRO, ENR and PIP, S enteritidis,by 100% to IMP and PIP, S pullorum, by 100% to ATM, CRO, ENR and PIP and S gallinarum, by 92% to CRO, CIP and PIP.

Salmonella enterica serovar typhi, a Gram-negative food-borne pathogen, causes typhoid fever in humans. OmpC is an outer membrane porin of S. typhi expressed throughout the infection period. OmpC is potentially an attractive antigen for multivalent vaccines and diagnostic kit designs. In this study we combined in silico, in vitro and in vivo approaches to analyze various aspects of OmpC's antigenic properties. The conserved region, in addition to secondary and tertiary structures, and linear B cell epitopes, were predicted. A number of results obtained from in silico analyses were validated by experimental studies. OmpC was amplified, cloned and then expressed, with the recombinant protein then being purified. BALB/c mice were immunized by purified denatured OmpC. The titer of antibody was raised. Results of challenges with the pathogen revealed that the immunity is non-protective. Most of the theoretical and experimental results were in consensus. Introduced linear B cell epitopes can be employed for the design of diagnostic kits based on antigen-antibody interactions.

Salmonella enterica serovars Gallinarum(SG, causative agent of fowl typhoid) and S Pullorum(SP, causative agent of pullorum disease) are very important bacterial pathogens in poultry industry. They share some common antigenic properties though the characteristics of outbreaks are quite different. To discriminate between SG and SP, we developed two rapid diagnostic methods, allele-specific real-time PCR and 3'-tailed PCR over 2 single nucleotide polymorphisms ($237^{th}\;and\;598^{th}$). In both methods, $237^{th}$ allele was found to be a good target for differential diagnosis, while $598^{th}$ allele produced some non-specific reactions.

본 연구는 장티푸스 환자에 대한 혈청학적 시험법인 Vi-PHA, $SD^{(R)}$ kit, Widal 시험(O & H)에 대하여 평가를 위해 수행하였다. 2005년부터 2006년까지 수집된 36건의 혈청검체를 대상으로 하였으며, 9건은 배양검사를 통하여 장티푸스균이 검출된 확진환자의(Typhoid fever) 검체이며, 27건은 비장티푸스성 열성환자의(Non-typhoid fever) 검체이다. 시험결과 Vi-PHA는 환자 혈청 9건 중 양성 8건으로 민감도 88.9% (P<0.001; Fisher's exact test), 비장티푸스성 열성환자 27건 중 1건이 양성을 보여 특이도 96.3%로 나타났다. $SD^{(R)}$ kit는 민감도 100% (P<0.001), 특이도 92.6%로 나타났다. Widal (O & H) 시험의 민감도는 각각 88.9% (P=0.001), 100% (P<0.001), 특이도는 77.8%, 70.4%로 나타났다. 민감도는 $SD^{(R)}$ kit와 Widal H 검사법이 가장 높은 것으로 확인되었으며, 특이도는 Vi-PHA가 가장 높게 나타났다. 장티푸스의 효과적인 혈청학적 진단을 위하여 급성 또는 유행지역에서는 특이도가 높은 Vi-PHA로 검사를 수행하고, 장티푸스 비 유행지역과 고위험군에 대하여는 민감도가 높은 Widal H와 $SD^{(R)}$ kit를 적용하는 것이 진단의 유의수준을 높일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Fowl typhoid (FT) is a septicemic disease caused by Salmonella gallinarum. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial resistance and pulsed -field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns of S gallinarum isolated from broiler. During 1999 to 2004, there was isolated a total of 26 strains in liver and spleen. The biochemical characteristics of S gallinarum isolates was nonmotile, no production of $H_2S$, glucose gas, non-fermented rhamnose, indole-negative, fermentation of dulcitol, mannitol, maltose, and ornithine decarboxylase. At antimicrobial susceptibility, all of isolates were susceptible to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, amikacin, neomycin, kanamycin, and cephalothin. Twenty-six isolates were divided into 19 resistant patterns and 6 strains was 8-multi-drug resistance. PFGE of Xba I restriction fragments of S gallinarum isolates was 22 patterns.

For the preparation of non-infective vaccine against typhoid fever, the authors had carried out an investigation on the possibilities of using $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$-ray irradiation for the inactivation of Salmonella typhi Ty 2. The following results were obtained. 1) Chicks shortly after hatching were higher susceptible than mice to intracerebral injection with S. typhi. 2) In safety test on experimental animal, $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$-ray irradiated vaccines demonstrated no clinical symptom while the phenol treated vaccines revealed several cases of narcosis by intraperitoneal injection in chicks. 3) The rabbit antisera immunized with $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$-ray irradiated and phenol treated vaccine revealed almost same agglutinin titers to each other. 4) In potency test in chicks, there was no significance in the protective capacity between $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$-ray irradiated and phenol treated vaccines.
