In Vitro Use Guide
The ability of a number of phenolic disinfectants to cause leakage of cell contents of Escbericbia coli was studied by exposing cells of the latter that had been labeled by incubating with C14 glutamate. Release of cell contents, as indicated by release of radioactivity, was found to be to be caused by phenol with IC50 below 6.25 mg/ml.
