Antimicrobial Efficacy of Benzyl Isothiocyanate
Journal of the Food Hygienic Society of Japan (Shokuhin Eiseigaku Zasshi), 2009 The potential value of benzyl isothiocyanate (BIT) vapor for food preservation was investigated in comparison with allyl isothiocyanate (AIT) vapor. Measurements of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against various bacteria and fungi indicated that BIT vapor shows higher antibacterial activity towards Gram-positive bacteria, including lactic acid ...
