The inhibition zone was measured from the gel overlay assay after SDS gel
electrophoresis. Each sample contains 15 ml of the crude lacxin from L. paracasei
NRRL B-50314 and 15 ml gel loading dye. MSSA: Methicillin sensitive S. aureus,
MRSA: Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus. Hetero VISA: Heterologous Vancomycin-
Intermediate Methicillin-Resistant, Homo VISA: Homogeneous Vancomycin-
Intermediate Methicillin-Resistant. * The zone is not very clear.
