doi: 10.1093/ecam/nem160

Figure Lengend Snippet: The minimum inhibitory concentrations of date pit extract and LB (‘L-broth’) control against Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209-B1. A higher number of surviving bacteria reflects the increased inhibitory activity (against the phages) of the higher concentrations of date pit extract.

Article Snippet: Inhibitory effect of date pit extract 1, 10, 100 and 1000 μg ml −1 and L-broth control on the ability of Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209-B1 to lyse, and thereby eliminate the growth of, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 25668.

Techniques: Activity Assay

Numbers are expressed as the percentage of bacteria remaining after 18 h incubation with Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209-B1. A higher number of surviving bacteria reflects the increased inhibitory activity (against the phages) of the higher concentrations of date pit extract.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Inhibition of Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209-B1 infectivity to Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 25668 brought about by 100 and 1000 μg ml −1 concentrations of date pit extract, versus L-broth control. Numbers are expressed as the percentage of bacteria remaining after 5 min incubation with Pseudomonas phage ATCC 14209-B1. Error bars indicate SD. A high number of surviving bacteria indicates poor phage infectivity.
