Abstract:
Listeria innocua strain Lin11 was used to compare the inhibitory activity of two bacteriocins (nisin A and pediocin AcH) in a decontamination process consisting of soaking artificially contaminated pieces of raw pork meat in a bacteriocin-containing solution before they were ground and stored aerobically at 5°C. Nisin A proved to be considerably more efficient than pediocin AcH, but generally after two days surviving bacteria in meat treated with each bacteriocin resumed growth at a rate similar to that of the control.

Abstract:
Sixty-nine Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria were isolated and identified from Italian dairy products (raw milk, cream, butter, soft cheese and yoghurt) to find new antimicrobial compounds to use as food bio-preservatives. All the isolates were preliminarily screened by the deferred antagonism method for bacteriocin production. Afterwards, to evaluate the release of bacteriocin in liquid medium, the Cell-Free Supernatant Fluid (CFSF) of the best producers was tested by agar well diffusion assay.

Lactic acid bacteria produce diverse antimicrobial peptides called bacteriocins. Most bacteriocins target sensitive bacteria by binding to specific receptors. Although a plethora of bacteriocins have been identified, for only a few of them the receptors they recognize are known. Here, we identified permease IIC and surface protein IID, two membrane subunits of the mannose-specific quaternary phosphotransferase system (Man-PTS), as a receptor for BacSJ, a subclass IId bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei BGSJ2-8.
