Abstract

This study determined the bactericidal activity of different concentrations of trisodium phosphate (TSP) against Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella enteritidis in vitro. One milliliter of each TSP solution (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2% w/v) was mixed with 1 mL of each bacterial culture and left to stand at room temperature (18 +/- 1C) for 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 or 90 min before enumeration of the surviving pathogens.
