Posted by by

Zhang H, Dudley EG, Harte F Applied Environmental Microbiology, 2017 ABSTRACT: In this study, the effect of individual lecithin phospholipids on the antimicrobial properties of eugenol against E. coli C600 was investigated. We tested five major phospholipids common in soy or egg lecithin (DPPC, DSPC, DPPE, DPPA and DPPS) and one synthetic cationic phospholipid (EPC 18:0). Among six phospholipids,… Read more »
