들깻잎 재배단지에서 분리한 Staphylococcus aureus의 독소 유전자와 항생제 감수성 분석

Abstract

Thirty one of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from perilla leaf cultivation areas in Miryang were investigated on the characteristics, such as enterotoxin genes and antibiotic susceptibility. Five toxin genes (sea, seb, sec, sed, and see) were examined by PCR method. Disc diffusion method was used to examine the antibiotic susceptibility of S. aureus by using 18 types of antibiotic discs with different concentrations. Among enterotoxin-encoding genes, sea and sed genes were co-detected from 4 isolates (12.9%), sed gene was founded in 9 isolates (29.0%), and see gene was founded in 1 isolate (3.2%). However seb and sec and tsst were not detected in any isolates. As a result of antibiotic susceptibility test, 7 isolates (22.6%) were resistant to 12 antibiotics (penicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefazolin, cephalothin, imipenem, gentamicin, tetracycline, ofloxacin, norfloxacin, and erythromycin). 2 isolates (6.5%) were resistant to 5 antibiotics (penicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, gentamycin, and telithromycin). MRSA (Methicilline Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) was founded in packing vinyl, hands, and perilla leaves.
