“…The highest inhibitory effect of t-butyl-4-Hydroxyanisole occurred with L. monocytogenes at pH 4.5 and pH 7.1. Synergistic antimicrobial activity of butylated hydroxyl anisole was enhanced when mixed with sucrose laurate and ethylene diamine tetraacetate against L. monocytogenes and S. typhimurium (Sikes and Ehioba 1999).…”

Background Foodborne illness is a public health alarm with a deleterious effect on human health and the economy all over the world. Searching for possible solutions to beat foodborne pathogens is still a demanding concern. The scope of this study is to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of some natural and organic compounds against important pathogens including Escherichia coli O157:H7 C9490, Listeria monocytogenes Lm2 Scott A 4b, and Salmonella enteritidis 8-9-99. Results The bactericidal effect of eight compounds and their concentrations were evaluated by the tube dilution assay against the tested bacterial strains. Thymol was found to be superior to all tested compounds. Antimicrobial activities found to be highly influenced by varying pH values. Low pH 4.5 found to report higher inhibition when compared with pH 7.1. For instance, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) occurred at pH 7.1 with 25 ppm of thymol against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella enteritidis, while 200 ppm against Listeria monocytogenes. However, MIC occurred at pH 4.5 with 25 ppm of thymol against all tested bacterial strains. Conclusions Thymol is the most active antimicrobial recorded in our study at low concentrations. Our results indicated thymol, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, salicylic acid, 3-t-butyl-4-Hydroxyanisole, and acetylsalicylic acid have promising potential applications in controlling tested foodborne pathogens.

“…One cryo-protective bead of each C. perfringens was inoculated into 30 ml of fluid thioglycolate broth (FTG, Oxoid, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England) and incubated in a gaseous mixture of 90% N 2 and 10% CO 2 (BOC Gasses, Dublin) at 37°C for 24 h using an anaerobic incubator (Don Whitley Scientific Limited) (Labbe et al, 2001;Sikes & Ehioba, 1999). Following incubation, each strain was centrifuged using an Eppendorf Centrifuge 5403 (Davidson & Hardy Ltd., Belfast, N. Ireland) at 3000g for 10 min at 4°C.…”

“…Alguns ésteres de sacarose apresentam uma interessante propriedade controladora sobre bactérias mesofílicas e termofílicas formadoras de esporos, como Clostridium perfringens, em alimentos hermeticamente embalados 30 . Este controle é sinergicamente intensificado quando os sucroésteres são usados com outros compostos, como o ácido etilenodiaminotetraacético (EDTA) e éter fenilmetílico que, isoladamente, apresentam baixa atividade antimicrobiana.…”

Recebido em 13/8/02; aceito em 19/5/03 SUCROCHEMISTRY: SYNTHESIS AND POTENTIALITIES FOR APPLICATIONS OF SOME SUCROSE CHEMICAL DERIVATIVES. The interest on the use of sucrose as raw material increased in the last years. In this work, the synthesis and applications of sucrose derivatives as esters, ethers, and other products are discussed in a concise manner aiming to presenting the sucrochemistry as a promising field in organic chemistry from a rather accessible, low-priced, ecological, and renewable source.
