To control Thrips tabaci in Korean leek and green onion which grow at vinyl house in IKSAN, Jeollabuk-do, the non-treatment was set as negative control. In general treatment group, 120 mesh gauze was installed on the side window after planting(May, 2nd) and, in spring, Orius strigicollis (1.0/m2) was grazed 3 times every 7 days from mid of May which is early development stage and In the mid of June, which is the peak stage, plant extracts were sprayed one time. In autumn, O. strigicollis was grazed 3 times every 7 days from mid of September which is early development stage, and in the mid of October, which is the peak stage, plant extracts were sprayed one time. The result shows that the leaf damage ratio was decreased by 22% in Korean leek and by 27% in green onion compared to the untreatment. And the control value of Thrips tabaci shows 78.7% in korean leak and 90.6% in green onion. The density control effect of Thrips tabaci was significantly controlled under max 6.2/plant in general treatment group compared max 25/plant in the untreatment and this result was similar in green onion. The yields by general treatment was increased by 85% in Korean leek and 56% in green onion, compared with non-treatment yields, which was 900kg/10a in Korean leek and 1,287kg/10a in green onion.

식품의 항균물질 분리에 있어 여러 가지 방법이 있지만 오차와 손실이 많아 실용화 하기에는 많은 문제점이 있다. 현재 일반적인 분리법으로 유기용매분획법, 크로마토그래피 등이 있으나, 많은 시간과 노력을 필요로 하며 시료에 따라 항균활성이 소실되는 경우가 많다. 본 연구는 전편의 '부추의 미생물학적 항균활성 특성과 가공식품에의 응용'에 이어 부추의 항균활성 물질을 효과적으로 분리하기 위한 방법을 정립하고 항균활성 물질을 확인하였다. 부추의 항균활성 물질 분리를 위하여 ultrafiltration, liquid-liquid extraction, TLC, HPLC 순으로 정제하였다. Ultrafiltration 결과 항균물질은 분자량 5,000 dalton 이하의 저분자 물질이었고, TLC로 분리된 8개의 spot중 대조군에 비하여 높은 항균활성을 나타내는 1개의 spot을 추출하여, HPLC로 유효 peak 2개를 얻었고 각 peak성분을 GC/MS로 확인한 결과 cis-propenyl methyl disulfide, 5-methyl methylthiosulphonate, dimethyl disulfide등의 황화합물로 구성된 복합물질로 확인되었다.

Antimicrobial activity of Korean leek was effective on Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, E. coli O157:H7, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pichia membranaefaciens. Extract from raw Korean leek and that from frozen one showed antimicrobial activity; in contrast, extract stored frozen condition or extract from blanched one lost antimicrobial activity. Filtration, centrifugation, and vacuum concentration did not affect antimicrobial activity of the leek, nor did the changes in storage pHs. Addition of ground leek to soy milk, soy curd, and broth for cold noodle resulted in the prolonged shelf life by significantly reducing the number of viable cells.
