Abstract
Sodium acetate suppressed K99 production in Escherichia coli strains cultured on a minimal medium, as determined by seroagglutination and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The greatest suppression occurred when the medium contained both sodium acetate and glucose. Glucose alone did not suppress K99 production.
