Abstract

Two species of halophilic bacteria were isolated from five salted seafoods and identified by 16S rDNA sequenc­ing homology. One was identified as Halomonas subglaciescola and other four strains were belong to Halomo­nas marina. The identity of all isolates with standard organisms was above $95\%.$ H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, and H. marina SH-2 grew in salinity condition from $3%\;to\;18\%$ NaCl but growth of H. marina SQ and H. marina SH-l grew in salinity environment from $8\%\;to\;17\%.$ Maximum biomass of H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, H. marina SQ, H. marina SH-1, and H. marina SH-2 growing in LB medium containing $15\%$ NaCl were about 3.2, 4.5, 4.5, 5.7, and 4.2, however the maximum biomass in LB medium containing $5\%$ NaCl were about 2.2, 1.1, 0.7, 0.2, and 2.4 as optical density at 660 nm, respectively. In scanning electron micrograph, unknown material (mucus) attached to outer membrane of all isolates was observed. When mucus isolated from halophilic bacterial cell was added to culture of E. coli, E. coli grew in medium containing $15\%$ NaCl.

다섯 종류의 젓갈로부터 다섯 종의 호염성 세균을 분리하였다. 이들의 165-rDNA 염기서열을 분석한 결과 한 종은 Halomonas subglaciescola, 다른 종들은 H. marina에 속하는 것으로 판명되었다. H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, and H. marina SH-2는 염도가 $3\%$에서 $20\%$에 이르는 넓은 범위의 배양 조건에서, H. marina SQ and H. marina SH-1는 염도가 $8\%$ $19\%$에 이르는 비교적 좁은 범위의 배양 조건에서 성장하는 것으로 나타났다. $15\%$ NaCl을 포함하는 LB 배지에서 배양한 H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, H. marina SQ, H. marina SH-1, H. marina SH-2의 최대 균체량은 흡광도로서 각각 3.2, 4.5, 4.5, 5.7, 4.2 이었으나 $5\%$의 NaCl을 포함하는 동일 배지에서 최대 균체량은 각각 2.2, 1.1, 0.7, 0.2, 2.4 이었다. 균체의 주사전자현미경 사진에서 균체의 표면에 부정형의 이물질이 부착되 어 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 각 균체의 배양액에서 점성을 갖는 물질을 분리하여 대장균의 배양액에 첨가하였을 때 대장균은 $15\%$ NaCl을 갖는 배지에서 성장하였다. 이것은 호염균의 세포 표면에 부착한 물질이 NaCl의 차단효과를 갖기 때문으로 생각된다.
