( 2011 ) also used a microbial protease to obtain peptides with antimicrobial activity; however, those peptides were only able to inhibit the growth of two Gram-positive bacterial strains ( Bacillus cereus ATCC 9634 and Corynebacterium fimi NCTC 7547) using a much higher concentration (250 mg/mL) than that used in the present work.

Article Title: Comparison of regenerated and non-regenerated oxidized cellulose hemostatic agents

doi: 10.1007/s10353-013-0222-z

Figure Lengend Snippet: Bactericidal effect of Traumastem®, non-regenerated oxidized cellulose, and Surgicel® Original, regenerated oxidized cellulose, against a Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), b Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 9027), c Streptococcus pyogenes (ATCC 19615), and d Enterococcus faecium (ATCC 6057) relative to a sterile gauze negative control. Time point 0 represents baseline colony forming units ( CFUs ) prior to treatment

Article Snippet: A 166 μL sample of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538, 4.7 × 10 7 CFU), Streptococcus pyogenes (ATCC 19615, 4.5 × 10 7 ), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 9027, 6.1 × 10 7 CFU), or Enterococcus faecium (ATCC 6057, 5.7 × 10 7 CFU) and 3 ml of TSB-Bouillon broth were added to each tube and maintained at 37 °C.

Techniques: Sterility, Negative Control
