killed the bacteria). These effects
have been attributed to the oxidation
of sulphur which in turn destroys
most of the harmful bacteria.

Nobel Laureate Arthur Stoll, who
first isolated the active ingredient
of garlic, discovered that allicin
has significant germicidal properties
due to its ability to oxidize sulphur
and allinase, which degrades alliin
into allicin (the antibacterial
component of garlic.) (Stoll &

Studies of the effects of
allicin extracted from garlic, at low
concentrations of 1:125,000 on
species of bacteria belonging to the
genera Staphylococcus, Streptococcus,
Bacillus and Vibrio (cholera), found
they were highly susceptible to the
allicin. (Cavillito & Bailey, 1944)
Other species of bacteria found to be
susceptible to powdered garlic were:
Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus
vulgaris, Escherichia coli,
Salmonella enteritidis and the fungus
Candida albicans. (Jezpwa et al,
