Abstract:The effect of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (4 x 1 0 -5~4 x 10-3~) on the growth and physiological activity of Streptococcus lactis subsp. diacetylactis and Lactobacillus casei has been investigated when cultivated in milk and lactose-peptone media. The concentrations of 2,4-D applied in milk did not cause complete growth inhibition of any of the strains. The degree of inhibition was dependent upon the bacterium species and the herbicide dose. Growth of the tolerant strain-L. casei W-10-was reduced by… Show more
