Changes With Time In The Availability Of Soil Applied Zinc To Navy Beans And In The Chemical Extraction Of Zinc From Soils, J. D. Armour, G. S.P. Ritchie, A. D. Robson

Food Science and Nutrition

The effect of the incubation of zinc (Zn) applied to the soil on Zn uptake and the Zn concentrations in chemical extractants was studied. In a glasshouse experiment using a Zn-deficient gravelly sandy loam, the effect of recently applied Zn was compared with that of Zn incubated with the soil for 15 days at 40°C on growth and Zn uptake by navy beans (Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Gallaroy). At the second harvest (33 days after sowing), the dry weight of shoots of recently applied Zn was consistently higher than that of incubated Zn, except at the highest rate of 1 …

Nisin Inhibits Several Grampositivemastitis-Causing Pathogens, Jeff Broadbent, Y. C. Chou, K. Gillies, J. K. Kondo

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

Organisms known to cause bovine mastitis, Enterococcus faecalis ssp. liquefaciens ATCC 27959, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29740, Streptococcus agalactiae ATCC 27956, Streptococcus equinus ATCC 27960, Streptococcus dysgalactiae ATCC 27957, Streptococcus uberis ATCC 27958, and the neotype Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 14990 were examined for their susceptibility to die small peptide antibiotic, nisin. Using a disc assay, minimum inhibitory concentrations of nisin ranged from 10 to 250 μg/ml among the strains. Examination of die antimicrobial effect of 50 μg/ml nisin in milk showed nisin inhibited all gram-positive pathogens tested.
