Antimicrobial Activity of Hibiscus sabdariffa Aqueous Extracts against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphylococcus aureus in a Microbiological Medium and Milk of Various Fat Concentrations
Abstract
Hibiscus sabdariffa L. calyces are widely used in the preparation of beverages. The calyces contain compounds that exhibit antimicrobial activity, yet little research has been conducted on their possible use in food systems as antimicrobials.
