Antibacterial and sporicidal activity of Eugenia polyantha Wight against Bacillus cereus and Bacillus subtilis
The spore-forming bacteria, Bacillus spp., have often been associated with the contamination of rice and other starchy products. In this study, the extract of Indonesian bay leaf (Eugenia polyantha) was assessed for its antibacterial and sporicidal activities against vegetative cells and spores of B...
