Abstract |
After
isolating and screening the antifungal strain from the soil in Korea,
effective antifungal strains were selected after testing the paper disk
method. A strain was selected after it was found highly effective
against
Pyricularia oryzae
and Pellicularia filamentosa and named as
YJH-1. For morphological characteristics of YJH-1 were rod-shaped, Gram
positive and has a good motility. The
temperature for the growth of YJH-1 ranged from 15~50oC, pH
ranging from 3~10, and NaCl concentration of 6%. Physiological
characteristics of YJH-1 showed positive catalase, negative oxidase, and
negative propionate and also hydrolyzed starch. All sugar components
except cellulose were utilized for the growth of YJH-1. The antifungal antibiotic was extracted three times
using n-butanol from the
culture broth of Bacillus sp. Bioassay-guided column chromatography with silica gel and Sephadex
LH-20 yielded 62 mg of the
original active compound from 1 litre of culture broth. The minimal
inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were 25 µg/ml and 50 µg/ml against
Pyricularia oryzae and
Pellicularia filamentosa
respectively. Based on results from the structure analysis of the
antibiotic using MS, NMR and IR spectroscopy, the antifungal antibiotic
was found to consist of only six of fructose.
