title: The influence of nalidixic acid on Escherichia coli growth in milk.
abstract: The high antibacterial activity of nalidixic acid against Escherichia coli, cultivated in raw and pasteurized milk has been shown. The low oxygen reduction potential had no influence on the antibacterial activity of this drug. The natural antibacterial agents in active milk from an inflamed udder have reduced the efficacy of nalidixic acid inhibition of the growth of E. coli.
