Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the inhibitory effect of garlic juice against Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella flexneri. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Virio. parahaemolyticus which are food pathogenic bacteria and Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus. lactis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides which are lactic acid bacteria. An aqueous extract of garlic was bacteriocidal against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in all concentrations (0.1∼2.5(w/v)%) tested in this experiment. Especially 0.5(w/v)% garlic juice inactivated completely E. coli, S. typhimurium, S. flexineri, V. parahaemolyticus and 1.0(w/v)% garlic juice perfectly reduced P. aeruginosa, S. mutans. Generally, the experiment result indicate that garlic juice restrains the growth of the pathogenic bacteria better than the lactic acid bacteria. Therefore, garlic has potential for the preservation of processed foods.
