The purpose of the current study was to determine the inactivation of Streptococcus sanguinis and Proteus mirabilis bacteria species via ultrasound. For this purpose, bacterial suspensions with 5x103, 1.5x104, and 3x104 colony forming unit (cfu/ml) concentrations were ultra-sonicated with 30 kHz frequency and 100 W power ultrasound for various sonication time periods. As a result, time-dependent inhibition rates were observed with bacteria concentration differences. The specific energy (γ) of different concentrations of S. sanguinis and P. mirabilis was also calculated. The rate constant of ultrasonic inhibition was evaluated in the linear region against sonication time. Then, the t-test was applied to all of the data. The results of 5x103, 1.5x104, and 3x104 cfu/ml for S. sanguinis and P. mirabilis were statistically significant at <p= 0.02, 0.02, 0.006 for S. sanguinis, and at <p=0.003, 0.004, 0.003 for P. mirabilis, respectively.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTıpMikrobiyoloji ve Klinik MikrobiyolojiYaşam BilimleriMoleküler Biyoloji ve GenetikSitogenetikSağlık BilimleriTemel Tıp BilimleriTemel BilimlerMedicineMicrobiology and Clinical MicrobiologyLife SciencesMolecular Biology and GeneticsCytogeneticHealth SciencesFundamental Medical SciencesNatural SciencesYaşam Bilimleri (LIFE)MikrobiyolojiBİYOKİMYA VE MOLEKÜLER BİYOLOJİMİKROBİYOLOJİLife Sciences (LIFE)MOLECULAR BIOLOGY & GENETICSMICROBIOLOGYBIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGYGenel Biyokimya, Genetik ve Moleküler BiyolojiMicrobiologyGeneral Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologybacteriaProteus mirabilisspecific energyStreptococcus sanguinistime-dependent inactivationultrasoundarticle3915964
