title: Antibacterial activity of S-methyl methanethiosulfinate and S-methyl 2-propene-1-thiosulfinate from Chinese chive toward Escherichia coli O157:H7.
abstract: S-Methyl methanethiosufinate (1) and S-methyl 2-propene-1-thiosulfinate (2) were easily seperated from Chinese chive (Allium tuberosum L.) using simple column chromatography. Both compounds showed significant antibacterial activities against E. coli O-157:H7 including spoilage microorganism in food. Structural assignment was based on Mass and NMR-spectroscopic methods.
