Interactions between two carnobacteriocins Cbn BM1 and Cbn B2 from Carnobacterium maltaromaticum CP5 on target bacteria and Caco-2 cells.

TL;DR: The cytotoxicity of the combination of theses two bacteriocins was determined but these two peptides used alone or in combination, at concentration 100-fold higher than those required for antimicrobial activity, were not cytotoxic, suggesting that the two carnobacteriocin produced by C. maltaromaticum CP5 could be potential natural agents for food preservation.

Bacteriocins from Gram-Negative Bacteria: A Classification?

TL;DR: This chapter presents the basis of a classification of colicins and microcins, which are highly stable hydrophobic peptides that are produced under stress conditions, particularly nutrient depletion.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-performance liquid chromatography determination of phenyllactic acid in MRS broth.

TL;DR: A simple and rapid method that does not require extraction, but only microfiltration of broth before injection in HPLC is proposed, which allows separation and quantification of PLA with a recovery of 98.7% and is highly reproducible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enterococcus faecium isolated from honey synthesized bacteriocin-like substances active against different Listeria monocytogenes strains.

TL;DR: Four Enterococcus faecium strains, isolated from honeycombs and feral combs, secreted antimicrobial substances active against fourteen different Listeria spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

An antilisterial bacteriocin BacFL31 produced by Enterococcus faecium FL31 with a novel structure containing hydroxyproline residues.

TL;DR: A new bacterium called FL31, which was selected for its antimicrobial activity against the pathogenic bacterium Listeria monocytogenes, was identified as Enterococcus faecium and noted to produce an antibacterial proteinaceous substance (BacFL31).
