Polylysine 코팅 필름의 항균활성

  • Published : 2005.08.01

Abstract

This study were investigated to analyzed an optimum preparation condition of coating film and its antimicrobial activity on pathogenic and deteriorative bacteria to obtain fundamental data for development of active packaging film using antimicrobial peptide, polysine. In the preparation conditions of coating film, antimicrobial activity was depending on the concentration of polylysine and polyamide respectively, and relatively high activity was obtained in the film prepared with more than $1.0\%$ (w/v) of polylysine, $40\%$ (w/v) polyamide, and more than $50\;{\mu}m$ of film thickness. Concentration of polylysine migrated from coated film to distilled water was reached at the maximum concentration, about 20 ppm after 3 days and in equilibrium after 7 days of soaking in sterilized water. An antimicrobial activity of coated film showed bactericidal effect of about $10^5\;CFU/mL$ comparing with the control against Bacillus cereus having $4.8{\times}10^5\;CFU/mL$ of initial viable cell numbers, and of about $10^2\;CFU/mL$ comparing with the control against Klebsiella pneumoniae having $6.8{\times}10^5\;CFU/mL$ of initial viable cell numbers. Consequently, it was revealed that polylysine coating film has a potential of applicable possibility as antimicrobial packaging film.

천연 항균성 peptide인 polylysine을 이용한 항균성 포장재의 개발을 위한 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 polyamide 수지를 기반으로 하는 제조조건을 검토하고 두부를 대상식품으로 하여 병원성 및 부패 관련 미생물에 대한 항균활성을 확인하였다. Polylysine 제조조건에 있어서는 polylysine, polyamide의 농도와 코팅필름의 두께에 따라 항균활성에 큰 차이를 보였으나, $1.0\%$ 이상의 polylysine, $40\%$ polyamide, $50\;{\mu}m$ 이상의 필름 두께로 제조한 필름에 상대적으로 가장 높은 항균활성을 나타내었다. Polylysine의 용출량은 코팅된 필름을 멸균수에서 7일간 침지시킨 결과 침지 3일 까지 최대 약 $20\;{\mu}g/mL$의 농도를 나타낸 후 평형에 도달하였다. 코팅 필름의 항균활성은 초기 생균수 $4.8{\times}10^5\;CFU/mL$인 B. cereus에 대해 대조구에 비해 침지 7일 후 최대 105 CFU/mL수준의 감균효과를, 그리고 초기 생균수 $6.8{\times}10^5\;CFU/mL$인 K. pneumoniae에 대해서는 대조구에 비해 침지 7일 후 최대 $10^2\;CFU/mL$ 수준의 감균효과를 나타내어 polylysine 코팅 필름의 항균성 포장재로서의 활용 가능성을 확인 할 수 있었으며 polylysine 코팅 필름을 상업적으로 적용하기 위해서는 저농도의 두꺼운 필름보다는 고농도의 얇은 필름이 미생물의 증식을 저해하는데 효과적이라고 판단된다. 또한 필름으로부터 polylysine 용출을 용이하도록 하기 위한 연구가 추가로 연구되어야 하겠다.
