ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF CARBAMIDE RESIN AND UTILIZATION OF THE LATTER BY CERTAIN MICROORGANISMS,
Abstract
The effect of nicroorganisms of soil secured by carbamide resin has been investigated. Various species of fungi Actinomycetes and bacteria were tested in liquid carbamide resin, a gel prepared by addition of 5% HCl solution to the resin, and also in samples of sand and loeff soils secured by resin. Addition of 0.1% of the resin to cultures of the test-organisms completely suppressed growth of desulfurized bacteria, microbacteria and actinomycetes, and the growth of the majority of other microorganisms was inhibited. None of the test-organisms grew in resin concentrations of 3%. Certain microorganisms, including Trichoderma which grew in 2% resin, were able to utilize the carbamide resin as a nitrogen source.
