Diameters of the inhibitory zones against the bacteria of peanut polysaccharides
| Bacteria | Concentration of peanut polysaccharides (mg/mL) | Control | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.25 | 12.5 | 25 | 50 | 75 | 100 | H2O | Ampicillin | |
| S. aureus | - | 24.3 ± 0.62B | 12.6 ± 0.81C | - | - | - | - | 49.7 ± 1.52△A |
| B. subtilis | - | 8.2 ± 0.46B | 7.2 ± 0.52B | - | - | - | - | 11.6 ± 1.05*A |
| E. coli | - | - | - | 7.1 ± 0.51C | 8.2 ± 0.54C | 9.7 ± 0.63B | - | 23.3 ± 1.14*A |
Ampicillin: 50 mg/mL (*), 10 mg/mL (△). The symbol (-) means that there is no effective inhibitory zone. The diameter is mean ± SD (n = 6) and the unit is millimeter. Values with different superscripts differ significantly (p < 0.01) (n = 6)
