Table 4

The antibacterial activity of bee bread extract (BBE) against foodborne pathogens.

Zone of inhibition (mm)
Fish sausage	Escherichia coli	Salmonella typhimurium	Staphylococcus aureus	Bacillus cereus
BBE (1 g/ml)	23.00 ± 1.41^a	31.00 ± 1.41^a	43.50 ± 2.12^a	31.00 ± 1.41^a
Tetracycline (30 mg/ml)	17.50 ± 0.70^b	20.5 ± 0.70^b	3.95 ± 0.07^b	18.00 ± 0.70^b

Tetracycline is the positive control. Values of means ± standard deviation (SD) of triplicate independent experiments. Different letters in the same column mean significant difference ().
