Critical Effect of H2O2 in the Agar Plate on the Growth of Laboratory and Environmental Strains
ABSTRACT We previously showed that autoclaving in preparing agar media is one of the sources of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the medium. This medium-embedded H2O2 was shown to lower the total colony count of environmental microorganisms. However, the critical concentrations of H2O2 detrimental to col...
