Abstrakt: This study compared the minimal inhibition concentrations (MICs) and their effects on the growth kinetics of seven different types of zinc (Zn) compounds and Na2EDTA in the case of three typical commensal beneficial microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis, Lactococcus lactis, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The seven Zn compounds included ZnSO4, four Zn–amino acid chelates, and two Zn–EDTA complexes. Both MICs and growth kinetic parameters indicated that different microorganisms show different sensitivities; for example, B. subtilis, L. lactis, and S. cerevisiae were most sensitive to ZnSO4, Na2EDTA, and Zn(NH3)2(Gly)2, respectively. Both ZnEDTA and Zn(NH3)2(Lys)2 improved the growth rate of all beneficial commensal intestinal microorganisms at low concentrations (5–10 mg/L) and showed low toxicity towards all tested strains. At higher concentrations (100–500 mg/L), all compounds decreased the growth rate and increased the lag phase. In conclusion, both growth kinetic parameters and MICs tested effectively measured the inhibitory effects of the test materials; however, growth kinetics provides a more detailed picture of the concentration-dependent effects and those on the mechanisms of microbial growth inhibition.
