Abstract

In this study, the minimum inhibition concentration(MIC), growth inhibition activity, and colony forming inhibitory activity of water soluble propolis against Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Salmonella enteritidis were tested. The MICs of the water soluble propolis against Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Salmonella enteritidis were 312.5 ppm, below 156.3 ppm, 625 ppm, 10,000 ppm, above 10,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, above 10,000 ppm, above 10,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, and above 10,000 ppm, respectively. The growth inhibition concentrations against Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 156.3 ppm, below 156.3 ppm, 625 ppm, 5,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm, and 5,000 ppm, respectively. However, 10,000 ppm did not inhibit the growth of Salmonella enteritidis. Finally, the colony forming inhibitory activities against Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Salmonella enteritidis were 98.0%, 99.8%, 69.8%, 98.1%, 62.0%, 63.1%, 79.5%, 61.9%, 79.6%, and 0.0%, respectively.
