Antimicrobial activity of lactobacillus plantarum, isolated from local fermented food (tempe) / Nor Azila Abd Latif

Lactobacillus plantarum LS isolated from local fermented food has been shown to produce antimicrobial activity. Agar disk diffusion method was used in antimicrobial activity testing and inhibition zone around disk was measured and recorded. The antimicrobial compound from L. plantarum LS has been fo...
