Abstract

This study aims to explore the extent to which varying the ratio of linoleic to oleic acid in processed sunflower affects the growth of S. epidermidis and E. coli. A modified Kirby-Bauer test was utilized to obtain quantitative results. Sunflower oil was diluted to various concentrations using Tween 80, then applied to bacteria inoculated in either pour-plate or spread-plate methods. All conditions tested were done in triplicate to conform to standards in antibacterial susceptibility testing.
