Abstract

In an effort to evaluate Salmonella food safety using combinations of preservation techniques, its viabilities when exposed to HCl, acetic acid, and the oxidative agents (hydrogen peroxide and butyl hydrogen peroxide), were analyzed using sub-lethal heat-shocked Salmonella Typhimurium at $56^{\circ}C$. 2D gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF MS analyses were also conducted to determine the expression and repression of proteins in heat-shocked cells. Heat-shocked S. Typhimurium evidenced a reduction of viable counts by 1-2 log CFU/mL. However, viality of non heat-shocked S. Typhimurium decreased markedly by 5-6 log CFU/mL at a pH 4 in response to acid and oxidative stresses. Sub-lethal heat treatment greatly increased the resistance of S. Typhimurium against acid and oxidant agents. As for 2D gel electrophoresis and protein identification via MALDI-TOF MS, 17 major proteins in non heat-shocked S. Typhimurium were detected, and only 13 proteins among these proteins were detected in heat-shocked S. Typhimurium. The heat shock proteins such as DnaK and small heat shock proteins were included, and may be associated with the resistance of S. typhimurium against exposure to acids and oxidants. Therefore, even though the promising hurdle technology using the combined mild treatments including heat was applied to S. Typhimurium, the proper heat treatment to reduce its crossprotection activity toward the following preservative agents might be considered.

Salmonella로부터 식품 안전성을 높이기 위한 보존법의 병용처리에 의한 효과를 평가하고자 S. Typhimurium을 열과 산, 산화제 등으로 연속 처리한 후 생균수를 측정하여 효과를 분석하였다. 그리고 열충격에 의하여 S. Typhimurium 내에 발현되거나 억제되는 단백질을 이차원 전기영동과 MALDI-TOF 질량분석기로 분석하였다. 열처리된 S. Typhimurium은 초산과 염산의 pH 4에서의 생균수가 1.3-1.8 log CFU/mL가 줄었고 비열처리 S. Typhimurium은 생균수가 약 5 log CFU/mL가 감소하였다. 열처리 S. Typhimurium은 butyl hydrogen peroxide와 과산화수소에서 생균수가 1.1-1.7 log CFU/mL가 줄었으나 비열처리 S. Typhimurium은 5.4-5.6 log CFU/mL 감소하였다. 충분하지 않은 사멸 열처리는 S. Typhimurium의 생존력을 증가시키고 산과 산화제 등의 보존제에서 저항성이 커지는 것을 알 수가 있었다. 이차원 전기영동과 MALDI-TOF 질량분석에 의한 발현 단백질 분석 결과 비열처리 S. Typhimurium은 17개의 단백질이 검출되었고 열처리 S. Typhimurium에는 13개의 단백질만 검출되었다. 이들 중에 열충격 단백질로 알려진 DnaK, small heat shock protein 등이 검출되었고 이들이 산과 산화제에서의 생존 저항성 증가와 관련이 있을 것으로 보인다. 그러므로 열처리를 포함하는 hurdle technology를 적용하여 식품을 보존처리할 때 다른 보존제에 대한 교차보호성이 증가되는 사실을 고려하여 적절한 열처리가 고려되어야 된다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
