Antibacterial activity of sardine extracts against C. acnes.
| Sample | MIC* Median | MIC Median | MBC Median |
|---|---|---|---|
| (mg/mL) | (mg/mL) | (mg/mL) | |
| (n = 1/n = 2/n = 3) | (n = 1/n = 2/n = 3) | (n = 1/n = 2/n = 3) | |
| S2 | 0.29 | 0.59 | 2.34 |
| (0.29/0.29/0.29) | (0.59/0.29/0.59) | (4.69/1.17/2.34) | |
| S3 | 2.15 | 17.19 | > 68.75 |
| (2.15/2.15/2.15) | (34.38/17.19/17.19) | (>68.75/68.75/>68.75) |
MIC*—Lowest concentration of a sample at which bacterial growth was visually and differentially affected; MIC—Minimum inhibitory concentration; MBC—Minimum bactericidal concentration.
