Effect of sorbitan monolaurate polyoxyalkylene (Tween 20) on the ultrastructure of some bacteria.
The ultrastructure of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas pseudomallei and Pseudomonas aeruginosa treated with 0.5 and 1% Tween 20 was studied by means of transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Specific changes in the cell wall and cytoplasmic membrane were observed.
