ASP: ammonium sulfate precipitate; EAE: ethyl acetate extract; EE: ether extract; T1: ammonium sulfate precipitate of sterile LB medium; T2: ammonium sulfate precipitate of LB medium inoculated with E. coli; T3: proteinase K solution. The data are average values of duplicates ± one standard deviation.
