Evaluation of growth inhibitory effect of ceramics powder slurry on bacteria by conductance method.
Open accessAbstract
The growth inhibitory effect of 26 ceramic powder slurries on bacteria was evaluated by measurement of the conductance change of the growth medium caused by bacterial metabolism (conductance method). Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis were used as test bacteria. It was found that the growth of the test bacteria was inhibited by 10 ceramic powders. Magnesium oxide (MgO) and calcium oxide (CaO) powder slurries had a growth inhibitory effect on all test bacteria. In the cases of MgO, and CaO powder slurries, there was no difference in sensitivities among the test bacteria. These powder slurries exhibited bactericidal action on the test bacteria. On the other hand, the zinc oxide (ZnO) powder slurry inhibited the growth of Gram-positive bacteria stronger than Gram-negative bacteria. The effect was bacteriostatic action. The conductance method could provide quantitative and simple evaluation of the growth inhibitory effect of ceramic powder slurries on bacteria, and was more applicable than the conventional methods, such as the halo test.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
