Abstract
Vanillic, syringic, gallic, and protocatechuic acids, methyl-
p
-hydroxybenzoate, and propyl-
p
-hydroxybenzoate generally inhibited respiration in vitro of
Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa
, and
Aerobacter aerogenes
in human urine. In the absence of any other available carbon source, certain of the phenolic compounds were utilized. Reproduction was generally suppressed in urine buffered to
p
H 7, 5.6, 4.5, and 4.0. The phenolic compounds were used in the range of 0.11 to 0.99 μmole/ml.
