Abstract
It has been shown that the addition of 1% trimethylamine oxide to culture media reduces the total counts from fresh cod fillets approximately fifty per cent when the plates are incubated at 25 °C. or lower.By plating out pure cultures it has been shown that the inhibiting action of the oxide is on gram positive organisms and has either no effect or a slight stimulating action on gram negative organisms.Keywords
