Abstract:Traditional bacteriocin screening methods often face limitations due to diffusion‐related challenges in agar matrices, which can prevent the peptides from reaching their target organism. Turbidimetric techniques offer a solution to these issues, eliminating diffusion‐related problems and providing an initial quantification of bacteriocin efficacy in producer organisms. This study involved screening the cell‐free supernatant (CFS) from eight uncharacterized asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) isolates and Escherichi… Show more
