Tsuneo Ishida* 1 Reiko Kobayashi 2

Antimicrobial and bacteriolytic PGN cell wall destruction, hydrolysis, decomposition, and cleavage activities by metal salts, metal-based compounds/alloy materials have been extensively elucidated against S. aureus and E. coli.

Anti-microbial activity on metal salts: The antibacterial activity of Cu2+-treatment against Staphylococcus aureus was the most effective. Zn2+-treatment possessed a great antibacterial activity against S. aureus even, Cu2+ possessed the…

Although milk is a vital part of the human diet, foodborne bacteria, especially those with antibiotic resistance, may spread through it. The purpose of this study was to assess the foodborne risks related to Staphylococcus aureus and multidrug-resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli that were isolated from retail milk samples. 360 milk samples in all were gathered from retail establishments and subjected to conventional bacteriological analysis. In compliance with CLSI recommendations, isolates…
