Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the inactivation effect of intense pulsed light (IPL) on Micrococcus roseus, an irradiation-resistant bacterium isolated from laver, and the commercial feasibility of this sterilization method on dried laver. The inactivation of M. roseus in cultivated plates increased with increasing light intensity and treatment time. Approximately 6.6 log CFU/mL reduction of the cell viability was achieved with IPL treatment for 3 min at 1,000 V of light intensity, tailing was not shown. In addition, the inactivation rate of M. roseus increased with increasing pulse number at same light intensity and treatment time. The killing efficiency for M. roseus increased with by decreasing the distance between the light source and the sample surface.

김에 존재하는 M. roseus는 비병원성 세균이나 사람이 면역력이 떨어지게되면 질병을 일으킬 수 있는 균주로서 열처리를 통해서도 쉽게 사멸되지 않고 특히 10 kGy의 감마선 조사에서도 1 log, 40 kGy의 조사선량에서 1 log CFU/mL 이상의 생존율을 나타내는 방사선 저항 세균이다. 이러한 방사선 저항 세균인 M. roseus를 광펄스 살균을 통해 살균 가능성을 알아보았다. M. roseus는 빛의 세기가 증가함에 따라 사멸율이 증가하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 1,000 V의 빛의 세기에서 3분 처리 후에 6.4 log의 감소효과를 보였고 tailing 현상을 보이지 않았다. 빛의 세기와 처리시간을 같이 한 조건에서는 단위 시간동안 펄스 수가 높을수록 살균율이 높아졌으며, 10 pps에서는 2분의 처리로 모든 균이 사멸하였다. 또한 광원과 시료사이의 거리는 가까울수록 사멸율이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 연구 결과로 볼 때 광펄스 살균이 향후 김의 위생적 처리의 방법의 하나로 가능성이 있을 것으로 예측된다.
