Effect of ultrasound on s. Epidermidis museum culture

Abstract

The aim o f the present research project was to study the effect o f ultrasonic waves on the S. epidermidis ATCC 14990 museum culture. Materials and methods: A bibliosemantic method - for analyzing previous research based on scientific literature, electronic resources. empirical methods of scientific research (observation, comparison, measurement, experiment) - to study the effect o f ultrasound on the strain o f S. epidermidis ATCC 14990. Results: A study showed that when exposed to ultrasound for four and a h alf minutes on a culture o f microorganisms S. epidermidis in glass tubes, the number o f viable cells in the suspension decreases. Conclusions: The influence o f ultrasound on the culture o f S. epidermidis, studied in the work, showed that the selected and used parameters o f ultrasound treatment cause destructive changes in microorganisms. These changes are not fatal for the entire bacterial culture used in the study, but they have a reliable antimicrobial effect.
