بررسی و تعیین حداقل غلظت بازدارندگی(MIC) دی استات سدیم بر برخی از میکروارگانیسم های عامل فساد در نوشابه های گاز‌دار در محیط کشت

Sodium diacetate is a safe chemical presevative which is used as an inhibitor against mould, yeast and some bacteria. In this study anti-microbial effect of sodium diacetate on preventing the growth of some spoilage microorganisms in carbonated beverages was investigated by broth diulation suceptibility test in medium. At the concentrations of 10¹, 10², 10³ and 10⁵ cells of Saccharomycess cerevisiae per ml 156, 313, 1250 and 5000 ppm of sodium diacetate were respectively determined as the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) preventing growth of the yeast. As for Candida krusei, 625, 1250, 2500 and 5000 ppm of sodium diacetate were MIC inhibiting the growth of the yeast at concentrations of respectively 10¹, 10², 10³ and 10⁵ cells/ml. 2500 and 5000 ppm of sodium diacetate were determined as MIC inhibiting the growth of Leuconostac mesenteroides at the concentrations of respectively 10², 10⁴ bacteria/ml, and for 10² bacteria/ml of Lactobacillus delbrukii was prevented by adding 2500 ppm sodium diacetate. No inhibitory effects of different concentrations of sodium diacetate observed at none of the prepared spore suspension of Aspergilus niger, so no concentrations of sodium diacetate were determined as MIC for this species of mould.The results show that sodium diacetate has inhibitory effects on the above selected yeast and bacteria but no inhibitory effects on the mould of Aspergilus niger.
