Abstract:Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a food-borne pathogenic microorganism that commonly exists in aquatic products. In this study, the antibacterial activities of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) against V. parahaemolyticus were investigated by both transcriptomic analysis and morphological verification. Treatment with 1/8 minimum inhibitory concentration (1/8 MIC) BITC resulted in 234 upregulated genes and 273 downregulated genes. We selected six virulence genes that were significantly downregulated and verified them usin… Show more
