Abstract
An investigation of the effect of the concentration of Staphylococcus aureus on the antimicrobial activity of phenol has been performed. For this purpose, a kinetic approach to the screening of antimicrobial activity of phenol was successfully applied. The values of the parameters D, E (the time for elimination of any size population of organism) and E ̀ (the time for elimination of 10 2 organisms/ml) were calculated. The results show that the preservative efficacy is not affected by the concentration of challenge organisms up to the point where the system becomes overloaded.
