AbstractRicinoleic and acid oleic acid derivatives were screened for their antimicrobial activity, under optimum growing‐conditions, against several species of bacteria, yeasts, and molds. Several ricinoleic acid derivatives and petroselinic (iso‐oleic) acid exhibited considerable activity; in fact, their activity against some micro‐organisms was comparable to sorbic and 10‐undecenoic acid, known antimicrobial agents, as indicated by this test.
