MATPROG-Matprogrammet: Norsk mat fra sjø og land

Inhibition and suppression of bacterial growth by Sphagnum moss biopolymers

Remarkably, a pectin-like polysaccharide found in the leaves of Sphagnum moss displays direct anti-microbial properties with the ability to preserve a whole Zebra fish for a number of weeks at room temperature in the presence of oxygen. Using whole leaves of moss, we have even preserved a chicke...
