This study examined the antibacterial activity of the biological pesticide Liangguoan against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli as a potential replacement for chemical pesticide use in the fruit and vegetable industry. We measured the minimum inhibitory concentration and observed the changes in bacterial morphology, mortality, conductivity, nucleic acid content, and ATP content in response to the bactericide. The minimum inhibitory concentration of Liangguoan was 20 mg/mL for S. aureus and 40 mg/mL for E. coli. After treatment with Liangguoan, the mortality rates of S. aureus and E. coli reached 78.3% and 63.7%, respectively. We observed that the cells were scattered and that the cell morphology was altered in that the cells shortened. The interconnection effect and ATP content decreased, whereas cell conductivity and the nucleic acid content increased. In summary, Liangguoan inhibited S. aureus and E. coli by destroying their cell structure and disrupting their metabolism.
