| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, bacterial community structure was analyzed to clarify the relationship between shower-head biofilm and shower-head water. The results showed that 10 genera were common to all water samples and that 38 genera of bacteria were more abundant in the water than biofilms. In contrast, only two genera of biofilm samples were common to all samples. These suggest that water and biofilm consist from different bacterial communities. The proportion of bacterial genera commonly found in both water and biofilm was high, with biofilm being about twice as high as water, indicating that the bacteria in the water adhered to the surface and multiplied, not that the bacteria in the biofilm emerged in the water.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日本で大きな問題となってきた非結核性抗酸菌症の原因菌は、同じ抗酸菌の結核菌と異なり、ほとんどゲノム情報も生息地での情報が少なく、対策方法が未発達の状況である。ゲノム情報から、結核とはあまりに大きく異なり、外来因子の頻繁な行き来が推測され、薬剤耐性になりやすい知見が得られた。また、その環境分布は日本と欧米とは大きく異なっていて、少なかった。そのため、感染数が多い謎の解明にはさらに研究が必要である。
