Use of the agar diffusion assay to evaluate bactericidal activity of formulations of alkaline salts of fatty acids against bacteria associated with poultry processing
2011-08-01
Abstract excerpt
The agar diffusion assay was used to examine antibacterial activity of alkaline salts of fatty acids (FA). Wells in agar seeded with bacteria were filled with FA-potassium hydroxide (KOH) solutions, plates were incubated and zones of inhibition were measured. Effects of lauric acid-KOH concentration and pH of caproic, caprylic, capric, lauric and myristic acids in KOH on sizes of zones of inhibition of bacteria we...
