Identification of nisin-producing strains by nisin-controlled gene expression system.

TL;DR: A specific method to identify nisin-producing strains was developed based on Nisin-Controlled gene Expression (NICE) vector pSec:Nuc, and 4 among 56 lactococci strains isolated from raw milk were identified as nisin producers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Purification and characterization of a bacteriocin from an oenological strain of Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris.

TL;DR: Mesentericin W3 inhibited the growth of food-borne pathogenic bacteria such as Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, and malolactic bacteria and was active over a wide pH range and stable to organic solvents and heat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Salmonella Typhimurium by bovicin HC5 associated with chelating agents and surfactants

TL;DR: The bactericidal effect of bovicin HC5 against Salmonella Typhimurium to is augment in the presence of chelating agents and surfactants, which possibly act in the destabilization of the bacterial outer membrane, which allows the action of the bacteriocin on cell membranes to be allowed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and identification of a new intracellular antimicrobial peptide produced by Paenibacillus alvei AN5

TL;DR: A wild-type, Gram-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming and motile bacteria has been isolated from palm oil mill sludge in Malaysia and showed antimicrobial activity against Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13076, Escherichia coli ATCC 29522, Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 and Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 8014.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of three different methods for the isolation of bacteriocin‐like inhibitory substances from bifidobacterium infantis bcrc 14602

TL;DR: The ability of the partially purified BLIS to inhibit the growth of gram-negative bacteria, which cause food spoilage and foodborne diseases, makes the bacteriocins purified from bifidobacteria very useful in food safety applications.
