Function
[PERL_CAPHI] Antimicrobial agent which utilizes hydrogen peroxide and thiocyanate (SCN) to generate the antimicrobial substance hypothiocyanous acid (HOSCN) (PubMed:10894086). May protect the udder from infection and promote growth in newborns. Inhibits growth of several fungi including A.niger, Trichoderma species, C.cassicola, P.meadii and C.salmonicolor (PubMed:10894086). Does not have anti-fungal activity towards C.albicans and Pythium species (PubMed:10894086). Inhibits growth of several Gram-positive bacteria including some Staphylococcus species and Gram-negative bacteria including E.coli, P.aeruginosa and some Salmonella species (PubMed:10894086).[1]
