Nabil Ben Omar,Araceli Castro,Rosario Lucas,Hikmate Abriouel,Nuha M. K. Yousif,Charles M. A. P. Franz,Wilhelm H. Holzapfel,Pérez-Pulido Rubén,Magdalena Martínez-Cañamero,Antonio Gálvez +9 more
TL;DR: Many isolates showed intermediate sensitivity to several antibiotics and showed functional properties of food or health relevance, and 14 of them carried structural genes for enterocins A, B and/or P.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial antagonists to food-borne pathogens and biocontrol.
TL;DR: In-farm application of bacteriocins, bacterial protective cultures, or bacteriophages can decrease the incidence of food-borne pathogens in livestock, animal products and fresh produce items, reducing the risks for transmission through the food chain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Roles of Staphylococcus aureus Enterotoxins: Pathogenicity, Superantigenic Activity, and Correlation to Antibiotic Resistance
TL;DR: A review of the diverse roles of SE, their possible correlations and the influence in disease progression and therapy in Staphylococcus aureus infections is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Culture-independent study of the diversity of microbial populations in brines during fermentation of naturally-fermented Aloreña green table olives.
TL;DR: The present study illustrates the complexity of the microbial populations in naturally-fermented Aloreña table olives by studying the microbial load of brines during fermentation and the microbial diversity by a culture-independent approach based on PCR-DGGE analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris in fruit juices by enterocin AS-48
Mª José Grande,Rosario Lucas,Hikmate Abriouel,N. Ben Omar,Mercedes Maqueda,Manuel Martínez-Bueno,Magdalena Martínez-Cañamero,Eva Valdivia,Antonio Gálvez +8 more
TL;DR: Control of this bacterium by enterocin AS-48 from Enterococcus faecalis A-48-32 is described, and in all commercial fruit juices tested, no viable cells were detected as early as 15 min after incubation with the bacteriocin.
