摘要：
Catechin exhibits antimicrobial activity against various microorganisms, such as EHEC O157:H7. This study reports the bactericidal effect of catechin on EHEC O157:H7 in simulated human gastrointestinal environment and the underlying antibacterial mechanism. Bacteriostasis test results showed that the minimum bactericidal concentration of catechin for EHEC O157:H7 was 5 g/L. The bactericidal effect of catechin in the gastrointestinal juice became more significant with increased culture time, and catechin exhibited a synergistic effect with bile salt in inhibiting EHEC O157:H7. Changes in the pr...
