Abstract
A bacterial strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PR3) has been intensively studied to produce a novel 7,10-dihydroxy-8(E)-octadecenoic acid (DOD) from oleic acid or natural vegetable oils containing oleic acid. However, biological properties of DOD remained unknown so far. In this study, as a trial to determine the biological properties of DOD molecule, antibacterial activities of DOD against food-borne pathogenic bacteria were determined quantitatively and qualitatively. DOD presented strong antibacterial activities against all the bacterial strains tested with an MIC value being in the range of 125–500 μg/ml and there was no activity preference between gram-positive and gram-negative strains.
