Abstract: | In order to rationalize work and to reduce the consumption of laboratory glassware a reduction micromethod with the bacterial stain Streptococcus thermophilus has been modified; the method is used to detect inhibitory substances in genuine, pausteurized and dried milk, and it is performed on a serological plate made from organic glass. The method is sensitive to most antibiotics used in the veterinary clinical practice. The detection sensitivity to penicillin residua ranges from 0.0015 to 0.0015 i.u. in 1 ml of milk. The method may be assessed as semi-quantitative. |
