Figure 1From: Resistance of rumen bacteria murein to bovine gastric lysozymeBacteriolytic activity of gastric extract against M. luteus. Lytic activity shown as % of initial scattering of a M. luteus suspension (0.25 mg/ml in acetate buffer pH 5.5) treated (indicated by arrow) with gastric extracts of whole abomasum mucosa (E1, E2, E3, E4 and E, corresponding to extract concentrations of 42, 133, 233, 417 and 554 μg/ml, respectively) and EWL (5 μg/ml).Back to article page
