Anti-Microbial Activities

Antimicrobial activity evaluation methods in food are as old as the existence of disinfectants and antibiotics. For example, determination of the antimicrobial effect of vapours of crushed garlic against Mycobacterium species, Escherichia coli, Serratia marcescens and B. subtilus was studied as early as 1936 (Walton et al., 1936).

Crushed garlic was placed on the lid of a Petri dish and the bottom of the dish containing nutrient medium was inverted over the top.

Most of the methods used for evaluation of the antimicrobial activity in foods can be classified as shown in Fig. 14.2.
