Figure 4

Plate inhibition zone assay showing the antimicrobial activity of different thiosulfinates against various bacteria and yeast. (a) Representative pictures for Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli K12, Pseudomonas spp.), Gram-positive bacteria (M. luteus) and yeast BY4742 cells. Cells were incorporated in 50 °C warm agar and poured into a Petri-dish. The upper well contained 20 µL of 8 mM solution, the hole at the left side of each Petri-dish contained 20 µL of 4 mM solution and the hole at the right side of the Petri-dish contained 20 µL of 2 mM solution of each compound tested. (b) The diameter of inhibition zone was measured for the hole containing 20 µL of 8 mM solution of the test compound. Error bars show standard deviation about the mean, n = 9.
