Table 2.
Treatment | Remaining bacteriostatic activity (%) |
---|---|
PBS (pH 4.0) | 0 ± 0 |
Untreated CFS | 100 ± 0 |
pH 4.5 | 50.32 ± 0.04 |
pH 5.0 | 22.08 ± 0.05 |
pH 5.5 | 0 ± 0 |
pH 6.0 | 0 ± 0 |
Values are mean ± SD (n = 3 independent experiment). Remaining bacteriostatic activity of CFS with different treatments was presented as percentages (%). Remaining antibacterial activity was expressed as the ratio of the experimental group’s inhibition zone’s diameter and the diameter of the control group.
