The effect of organic osmoprotectors on Aeromonas trota and A. hydrophila grown under high sodium chloride concentrations Efeito de osmoprotetores orgânicos sobre Aeromonas trota e A. hydrophila cultivada em concentrações de cloreto de sódio
The effect of organic solutes on the growth of Aeromonas trota and A. hydrophila was evaluated. Proline and glutamic acid were not effective as osmoprotectors, but betaine exerts osmoprotection allowing the growth of both strains in inhibitory concentrations of NaCl. Growth kinetics suggests that th...
