What science says

compound effect

“This article provides an overview on natural antimicrobials incorporated in nanostructures, showing an effective antimicrobial activity on a diversity of food spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms.”

nanostructures → show effective antimicrobial activity → food spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms

Nanostructures for delivery of natural antimicrobials in food DOI →2017DOI

compound effect

“The most effective condensate was S2. All strains except Salmonella enteritidis were inhibited by S2 with an MIC < 0.5-1.5%”

S2 smoke condensate → inhibits → food spoilage and pathogenic micro-organisms

Minimum inhibitory concentration of smoke wood extracts against spoilage and pathogenic...DOI →1998DOI

compound effect

“Pediocin AcH, a bacteriocin of Pediococcus acidilactici H, inhibits the growth of several food spoilage and pathogenic bacteria.”

pediocin AcH → inhibits → growth of several food spoilage and pathogenic bacteria

Antigenic property of pediocin AcH produced by Pediococcus acidilactici H DOI →1990DOI

safety threshold

“In view of the interesting inhibitory spectrum of this bacteriocin and because of its good technological properties (resistance to heat and activity at acidic pH), this bacteriocin has potential applications as a biopreservative to prevent the growth of food-borne pathogens and food spoilage bacteria in certain food products.”

bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum lp 31 strain → has potential applications as → a biopreservative to prevent the growth of food-borne pathogens and food spoilage bacteria

Characterization and purification of a new bacteriocin with a broad inhibitory spectrum...DOI →2009DOI

compound effect

“A new lanthionine-containing bacteriocin, variacin, displaying a broad host range of inhibition against gram-positive food spoilage bacteria, has been identified from two strains of Micrococcus varians isolated from meat fermentations.”

variacin → inhibits → gram-positive food spoilage bacteria

Variacin, a new lanthionine-containing bacteriocin produced by Micrococcus varians: com...DOI →1996DOI
