Effect of ultrasound on s. epidermidis museum culture

The aim of the present research project was to study the effect of ultrasonic waves on the S. epidermidis ATCC 14990 museum culture.

Materials and methods: A bibliosemantic method - for analyzing previous research based on scientific literature, electronic resources, empirical methods of scientific research (observation, comparison, measurement, experiment) - to study the effect of ultrasound on the strain of S. epidermidis ATCC 14990.

Results: A study showed that when exposed to ultrasound for four and a half minutes on a culture of microorganisms S. epidermidis in glass tubes, the number of viable cells in the suspension decreases.

Conclusions: The influence of ultrasound on the culture of S. epidermidis, studied in the work, showed that the selected and used parameters of ultrasound treatment cause destructive changes in microorganisms. These changes are not fatal for the entire bacterial culture used in the study, but they have a reliable antimicrobial effect.
