In this paper, we establish two results assuring that \lambda =0 is a bifurcation point in L^ \rm{inf} ty (\Omega ) for the Hammerstein integral equation

u(x)=\lambda \int _\Omega k(x,y)f({}y,u({}y))dy.

We also present an application to the two-point boundary value problem

\cases{ -u''=\lambda f(x,u)\hfill \hbox {a.e. in [0,1] } \cr u(0)=u(1)=0 } \right.
