Twenty-four strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from a traditional Spanish cheese (Genestoso cheese) were evaluated for their enzymatic activities (acidifying and proteolytic abilities and carboxypeptidase, aminopeptidase, dipeptidase, caseinolytic and esterase activities), in order to select indigenous strains of technical interest for the manufacture of cheese. These strains were selected on the basis of their antimicrobial activity relative to five reference strains and were identified as Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (thirteen strains), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (two strains), Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides (one strain), Lactobacillus paracasei (two strains), Lactobacillus plantarum (one strain) and Enterococcus faecalis (five strains). 相似文献

The antimicrobial and technological characteristics of three bacteriocinogenic cultures used as adjunct starters in Minas Frescal cheese were investigated. The cheeses were manufactured with 1% commercial lactic starter and 0.5%Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis ATCC 11454, Lactobacillus plantarum ALC 01 or Enterococcus faecium FAIR‐E 198. The cheeses were then artificially inoculated with Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 27154 and Bacillus cereus K1‐B041 and stored for 21 days at 8°C. The results show that there was no significant difference in the counts of L. monocytogenes and S. aureus between the cheeses made with added bacteriocinogenic cultures and the control cheese. On the other hand, B. cereus exhibited susceptibility to Lb. plantarum ALC 01 and E. faecium FAIR‐E 198 from the seventh day of storage. However, these cultures increased the proteolysis of the Minas Frescal cheese. 相似文献

To evaluate the efficacy of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to improve the hygienic safety of a traditional raw milk cheese, the raw ewes' milk protected denomination of origin (PDO) Pecorino Siciliano cheese was used as a model system. Different Pecorino Siciliano curds and cheeses were used as sources of autochthonous LAB subsequently used as starter and non-starter LAB. These were screened for their acidification capacity and autolysis. Starter LAB showing the best performance were genotypically differentiated and identified: two strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis were selected. From the non-starter LAB, Enterococcus faecalis, Lactococcus garvieae and Streptococcus macedonicus strains were selected. The five cultures were used in individual or dual inocula to produce experimental cheeses in a dairy factory for which production was characterised by high numbers of undesirable bacteria. At 5-month of ripening, the experimental cheeses produced with LAB were characterised by undetectable levels of enterobacteria and pseudomonads and the typical sensory attributes. 相似文献

The goal of this study was the characterisation of indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts isolated from nine white pickled (BG) and nine fresh soft (ZG) artisanal cheeses collected in Serbia and Croatia. While LAB were present in all of the cheeses collected, yeasts were found in all BG cheeses but only in three ZG cheese samples. High LAB and yeast species diversity was determined (average H′L = 0.4 and H′Y = 0.8, respectively). The predominant LAB species in white pickled (BG) cheeses were Lactococcus lactis, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides, while in fresh soft (ZG) cheeses the most dominant LAB species were L. lactis, Enterococcus faecalis, and Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides. Among the 20 yeast species found, Debaryomyces hansenii, Candida zeylanoides, and Torulaspora delbrueckii were found to be predominant in BG cheeses, while Yarrowia lipolytica was predominant in ZG cheeses. The characterisation of metabolic and technological potentials revealed that 53.4% of LAB isolates produced antimicrobial compounds, 44.3% of LAB strains showed proteolytic activity, while most of the yeast species possessed either lipolytic or proteolytic activity. In conclusion, the results obtained in this study showed that the composition of LAB and yeast populations in white pickled and fresh soft cheeses is region specific. The knowledge gained in this study could eventually be used to select region specific LAB and yeast strains for the production of white pickled and fresh soft artisanal cheeses with geographically specific origins under controlled conditions. 相似文献

Ninety‐five isolated strains of Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were identified from Lighvan cheese. The LAB evolution showed the dominance of lactococci and lactobacilli in the first stage and substitution of these genera by enterococci at the end of ripening. The most predominant strains were Enterococcus faecium (22.44%), Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis (20.4%), Lactobacillus plantarum (18.36%) and E. faecalis (14.28%), respectively. Eleven and 51 different carbohydrate fermentation profiles were observed according to API 20 STREP and API 50 CH, respectively. API 20 STREP dendogram showed identical fermentation profiles of some E. faecalis and E. faecium strains, indicating that these strains might be well adapted to the whole cheese manufacture. 相似文献

Hispánico cheese was manufactured in duplicate experiments, each consisting of two 50-L vats, and ripened for 75 days. Lactic cultures for experimental cheese were 0.5% Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415 (Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, Madrid, Spain), a bacteriocin-producing (Bac+) strain harbouring the structural genes of nisin Z and lacticin 481, 0.5% L. lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415-2, a Bac− mutant and 2% TA052, a commercial Streptococcus thermophilus culture. Lactic cultures for control cheese were 1% L. lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415-2 and 2% TA052. S. thermophilus counts were lower, and levels of cell-free intracellular aminopeptidases higher, from day 1 in cheese made with the bacteriocin producer, indicating early lysis of the thermophilic culture. Experimental cheese showed reduced proteolysis of αs-casein and lower levels of hydrophilic and hydrophobic peptides than control cheese. However, proteolysis as estimated by the o-phthaldialdehyde method and total level of free amino acids were in experimental cheese 1.38- and 2.47-fold, respectively, those in control cheese on day 25, and 1.49- and 2.34-fold, respectively, on day 75. Higher values of fracturability, elasticity and hardness were recorded from day 50 for cheese made with the bacteriocin producer, which were related to its higher residual αs-casein content. The use of a bacteriocin-producing culture, though retarding αs-casein proteolysis and softening of texture, enhanced considerably secondary proteolysis during cheese ripening. 相似文献

Sodium chloride (NaCl) in cheese contributes to flavor and texture directly and by its effect on microbial and enzymatic activity. The salt-to-moisture ratio (S/M) is used to gauge if conditions for producing good-quality cheese have been met. Reductions in salt that deviate from the ideal S/M range could result in changing culture acidification profiles during cheese making. Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis or Lc. lactis ssp. cremoris are both used as cultures in Cheddar cheese manufacture, but Lc. lactis ssp. lactis has a higher salt and pH tolerance than Lc. lactis ssp. cremoris. Both salt and pH are used to control growth and survival of Listeria monocytogenes and salts such as KCl are commonly used to replace the effects of NaCl in food when NaCl is reduced. The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of sodium reduction, KCl use, and the subspecies of Lc. lactis used on L. monocytogenes survival in stirred-curd Cheddar cheese. Cheese was manufactured with either Lc. lactis ssp. lactis or Lc. lactis ssp. cremoris. At the salting step, curd was divided and salted with a concentration targeted to produce a final cheese with 600 mg of sodium/100 g (control), 25% reduced sodium (450 mg of sodium/100 g; both with and without KCl), and low sodium (53% sodium reduction or 280 mg of sodium/100 g; both with and without KCl). Potassium chloride was added on a molar equivalent to the NaCl it replaced to maintain an equivalent S/M. Cheese was inoculated with a 5-strain cocktail of L. monocytogenes at different times during aging to simulate postprocessing contamination, and counts were monitored over 27 or 50 d, depending on incubation temperature (12 or 5°C, respectively). In cheese inoculated with 4 log10 cfu of L. monocytogenes/g 2 wk after manufacture, viable counts declined by more than 3 log10 cfu/g in all treatments over 60 d. When inoculated with 5 log10 cfu/g at 3 mo of cheese age, L. monocytogenes counts in Cheddar cheese were also reduced during storage, but by less than 1.5 log10 cfu/g after 50 d. However, cheese with a 50% reduction in sodium without KCl had higher counts than full-sodium cheese at the end of 50 d of incubation at 4°C when inoculated at 3 mo. When inoculated at 8 mo postmanufacture, this trend was only observed in 50% reduced sodium with KCl, for cheese manufactured with both cultures. This enhanced survival for 50% reduced-sodium cheese was not seen when a higher incubation temperature (12°C) was used when cheese was inoculated at 3 mo of age and monitored for 27 d (no difference in treatments was observed at this incubation temperature). In the event of postprocessing contamination during later stages of ripening, L. monocytogenes was capable of survival in Cheddar cheese regardless of which culture was used, whether or not sodium had been reduced by as much as 50% from standard concentrations, or if KCl had been added to maintain the effective S/M of full-sodium Cheddar cheese. 相似文献

Antimicrobial behavior of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been explored since many years to assess their ability to produce bacteriocin, a natural preservative, to increase the shelf life of food. This study aims to characterize bacteriocin producing strains of lactic acid bacteria isolated from acidic to slightly acidic raw vegetables including tomato, bell pepper and green chili and to investigate their potential to inhibit food related bacteria. Among twenty nine LAB screened for antimicrobial activity, three exhibited antagonism against closely related bacterial isolates which was influenced by varying temperature and pH. They were identified up to strain level as Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis TI-4, L. lactis subsp. lactis CE-2 and L. lactis subsp. lactis PI-2 based on 16S rRNA gene sequence. Their spectrum of inhibition was observed against food associated strains of Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus. Moreover, L. lactis subsp. lactis PI-2 selected on the basis of higher antimicrobial activity was further evaluated for bacteriocin production which was detected as nisin A and nisin Z. These findings suggest the possible use of L. lactis strains of vegetable origin as protective cultures in slightly acidic as well as slightly alkaline food by the bio-preservative action of bacteriocins. 相似文献

Bacteriocin-producing lactococci were isolated from raw ewes’ milk samples obtained from 5 different Protected Designation of Origin Zamorano cheese manufacturers. Thirteen isolates with antimicrobial activity against Lactococcus lactis HP were selected. Eleven were identified by a PCR technique as L. lactis ssp. lactis and 2 were identified as L. lactis ssp. cremoris. They were grouped under 4 different pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns. The presence of structural genes of both nisin and lacticin 481 was detected in 10 L. lactis ssp. lactis isolates belonging to 2 different pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns. Coproduction of nisin and lacticin 481 was confirmed after semipurification by using selective indicators. The production of 2 bacteriocins by the same strain is an uncommon property, with relevance in food safety. Nisin and lacticin 481 L. lactis-producing strains might be used as adjunct cultures to the commercial starter in the manufacture of dairy products. 相似文献

The survival of the probiotic strains Lactobacillus fermentum (AB5-18 and AK4-120) and Lactobacillus plantarum (AB16-65 and AC18-82), all derived from human faces, was investigated in Turkish Beyaz cheese production. Three batches of Turkish Beyaz cheese were produced: one with the test probiotic culture mix (P), another with a commercial starter culture mix including Lactoccocus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (C) and the third with equal parts of the commercial starter culture mix and test probiotic culture mix (CP). The cheeses were ripened at 4 °C for 120 days and the viability of cultures was determined monthly. Cheese samples were analyzed for total solids, fat in solids, titratable acidity, pH, salt in total solids, proteolysis, sensory evaluation, aroma compounds and biogenic amines. While initial lactic acid bacteria load in P cheese was 2.7 × 109 at the beginning, it was 7.42 × 107 cfu/g at the end of 120 days of ripening. The results showed that test probiotic culture mix was successfully used in cheese production without adversely affecting the cheese quality during ripening. The chemical composition and sensory quality of P cheeses were also comparable with C cheeses. The present study indicates that probiotic cultures of human origin are feasible for Turkish Beyaz cheese production. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate if Mexican Fresco cheese manufactured with specific lactic acid bacteria (LAB) presented angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory (ACEI) activity. Water-soluble extracts (3 kDa) obtained from Mexican Fresco cheese prepared with specific LAB (Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, and mixtures: Lactococcus-Lactobacillus and Lactococcus-Enterococcus) were evaluated for ACEI activity. Specific peptide fractions with high ACEI were analyzed using reverse phase-HPLC coupled to mass spectrometry for determination of amino acid sequence. Cheese containing Enterococcus faecium or a Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis-Enterococcus faecium mixture showed the largest number of fractions with ACEI activity and the lowest half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50; <10 μg/mL). Various ACEI peptides derived from β-casein [(f(193-205), f(193-207), and f(193-209)] and αS1-casein [f(1-15), f(1-22), f(14-23), and f(24-34)] were found. The Mexican Fresco cheese manufactured with specific LAB strains produced peptides with potential antihypertensive activity. 相似文献

Selection of starter and adjunct cultures is important to minimize bitterness of Cheddar and Gouda cheeses. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry may be useful for rapid screening of cheese cultures for propensity to produce bitter cheese. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the application of MALDI-TOF for differentiating intracellular peptidase activities of starter and adjunct cultures on β-CN f193-209 under simulated cheese condition. Bovine β-casein was incubated with chymosin in 9.55 g/l citrate buffer (pH 5.4, 40 g/l sodium chloride) at 30°C for 24 h, followed by incubation with cell-free extract (CFE) of starter or adjunct culture. Mixed strains of Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis and L. lactis ssp. cremoris designated as 56 and 105 were the sources of nonbitter and bitter starter cultures, respectively. Lactobacillus helveticus WSU-19 and W900R represented adjunct cultures having high and low debittering activities, respectively. The degradation pattern of β-CN f193-209 by CFE of WSU-19 indicates general aminopeptidase and endopeptidase activities, while degradation of the peptide by CFE of W900R, 56, and 105 are mainly from endopeptidase activity. The rates of β-CN f193-209 hydrolysis by CFE of WSU-19, W900R, 56, and 105 are 6.90, 0.38, 0.39, and 0.23 mg/l per h, respectively. 相似文献

Antagonistic phenomena between strains often occur in mixed cultures containing a bacteriocinogenic strain. A nisin Z producer (Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis UL719) and 2 nisin-sensitive strains for acidification (Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris ATCC19257) and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production (Lactobacillus rhamnosus RW-9595M) were immobilized separately in gel beads and used to continuously preferment milk at different temperatures, with pH controlled at 6.0 by fresh milk addition. The process showed high volumetric productivity, with an increase from 8.0 to 12.5 L of prefermented milk per liter of reactor volume and hour as the temperature was increased from 27 to 35°C. Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis UL719 counts in prefermented and fermented (22-h batch fermentation) milks were stable during 3 wk of continuous fermentation (8.1 ± 0.1 and 8.9 ± 0.2 log cfu/mL, respectively). The L. lactis ssp. cremoris population (estimated with real-time quantitative PCR) decreased rapidly during the first week of continuous culture to approximately 4.5 log cfu/mL and remained constant afterward. Lactobacillus rhamnosus counts in prefermented and fermented milks significantly increased with prefermentation time, with no temperature effect. Nisin Z reached high titers in fermented milks (from 177 to 363 IU/mL), with EPS concentration in the range from 43 to 178 mg/L. Immobilization and continuous culture led to important physiological changes, with Lb. rhamnosus becoming much more tolerant to nisin Z, and Lb. rhamnosus and L. lactis ssp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis UL719 exhibiting large increases in milk acidification capacity. Our data showed that continuous milk prefermentation with immobilized cells can stimulate the acidification activity of low-acidifying strains and produce fermented milks with improved and controlled functional properties. 相似文献

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activity of milk fermented by wild and industrial Lactococcus lactis strains 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory (ACEI) activity was evaluated and compared in <3 KDa water-soluble extracts (WSE) isolated from milk fermented by wild and commercial starter culture Lactococcus lactis strains after 48 h of incubation. The highest ACEI activities were found in WSE from milk inoculated with wild L. lactis strains isolated from artisanal dairy products and commercial starter cultures. On the other hand, the lowest ACEI activities were found in WSE from milk inoculated with wild strains isolated from vegetables. Moreover, the IC50 values (concentration that inhibits 50% activity) of WSE from artisanal dairy products were the lowest, indicating that these fractions were the most effective in inhibiting 50% of ACE activity. In fact, a strain isolated from artisanal cheese presented the lowest IC50 (13 μg/mL). Thus, it appears that wild L. lactis strains isolated from artisanal dairy products and commercial starter cultures showed good potential for the production of fermented dairy products with ACEI properties. 相似文献

Various selective media for enumerating probiotic and cheese cultures were screened, with 6 media then used to study survival of probiotic bacteria in full-fat and low-fat Cheddar cheese. Commercial strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei, or Bifidobacterium lactis were added as probiotic adjuncts. The selective media, designed to promote growth of certain lactic acid bacteria (LAB) over others or to differentiate between LAB, were used to detect individual LAB types during cheese storage. Commercial strains of Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, and Bifidobacterium spp. were initially screened on the 6 selective media along with nonstarter LAB (NSLAB) isolates. The microbial flora of the cheeses was analyzed during 9 mo of storage at 6°C. Many NSLAB were able to grow on media presumed selective for Lactococcus, Bifidobacterium spp., or Lb. acidophilus, which became apparent after 90 d of cheese storage, Between 90 and 120 d of storage, bacterial counts changed on media selective for Bifidobacterium spp., suggesting growth of NSLAB. Appearance of NSLAB on Lb. casei selective media [de man, Rogosa, and Sharpe (MRS) + vancomycin] occurred sooner (30 d) in low-fat cheese than in full-fat control cheeses. Differentiation between NSLAB and Lactococcus was achieved by counting after 18 to 24 h when the NSLAB colonies were only pinpoint in size. Growth of NSLAB on the various selective media during aging means that probiotic adjunct cultures added during cheesemaking can only be enumerated with confidence on selective media for up to 3 or 4 mo. After this time, growth of NSLAB obfuscates enumeration of probiotic adjuncts. When adjunct Lb. casei or Lb. paracasei cultures are added during cheesemaking, they appear to remain at high numbers for a long time (9 mo) when counted on MRS + vancomycin medium, but a reasonable probability exists that they have been overtaken by NSLAB, which also grow readily on this medium. Enumeration using multiple selective media can provide insight into whether it is the actual adjunct culture or a NSLAB strain that is being enumerated. 相似文献

3-Methylbutanal is one of the primary substances that contribute to the nutty flavor in cheese. Lactococcus strains have been shown to have higher aminotransferase and α-keto acid decarboxylase activities compared with other microbes, indicating that they might form a higher amount of 3-methylbutanal by decarboxylation. Several dairy lactococcal strains have been successfully applied as adjunct cultures to increase the 3-methylbutanal content of cheese. Moreover, compared with dairy cultures, the nondairy lactococci are generally metabolically more diverse with more active AA-converting enzymes. Therefore, it might be appropriate to use nondairy lactococcal strains as adjunct cultures to enrich the 3-methylbutanal content of cheese. This study thereby aimed to select a nondairy Lactococcus strain that is highly productive of 3-methylbutanal, identify its biosynthetic pathway, and apply it to cheese manufacture. Twenty wild nondairy lactococci isolated from 5 kinds of Chinese traditional fermented products were identified using 16S rRNA sequence analysis and were found to belong to Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis. The nondairy strains were then screened in vitro for their production of 3-methylbutanal and whether they met the criteria to become an adjunct culture for cheese. The L. lactis ssp. lactis F9, isolated from sour bamboo shoot, was selected because of its higher 3-methylbutanal production, suitable autolysis rate, and lower acid production. The enzymes involved in the catabolic pathway of leucine were then evaluated. Both α-keto acid decarboxylase (6.96 μmol/g per minute) and α-keto acid dehydrogenase (30.06 μmol/g per minute) activities were detected in nondairy L. lactis F9. Cheddar cheeses made with different F9 levels were ripened at 13°C and analyzed after 90 d by a combination of instrumental and sensory methods. The results showed that adding nondairy L. lactis F9 significantly increased 3-methylbutanal content and enhanced the nutty flavor of the cheese without impairing its textural properties. Thus, nondairy L. lactis F9 efficiently enhanced the biosynthesis of 3-methylbutanal in vitro and in manufactured cheese. 相似文献

In the manufacture of model cheeses, ovine milk was deliberately contaminated with spores of Clostridium beijerinckii INIA 63, a wild isolate from Manchego cheese with late blowing defect, and inoculated with nisin- and lacticin 481-producing Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415 as starter, to test its potential to prevent the late blowing defect, or with L. lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415-2, a spontaneous mutant not producing bacteriocins. Cheeses made individually with the lactococcal strains, without clostridial spores, served as controls. Cheese made with clostridial spores and L. lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415-2 showed late blowing defect after 120 days of ripening. Spoilt cheese also showed lower concentrations of lactic acid, and higher levels of acetic, propionic and butyric acids, and of other volatile compounds such as 2-propanol and 1-butanol, than control cheese. In addition, cheese made with the bacteriocin producer did not show any late blowing symptoms, despite its spore counts similar to those of blown cheese, pointing to outgrowth inhibition of C. beijerinckii spores by bacteriocins. Besides, cheese made with the bacteriocin producer showed similar concentrations of lactic acid and volatile compounds than control cheese. Inclusion of L. lactis subsp. lactis INIA 415 in starter cultures seems a feasible method to prevent late blowing defect in cheese without altering its sensory characteristics. 相似文献

Eleven lactic acid bacteria strains of importance to the dairy industry were subjected to in vitro analyses to determine their probiotic potential. Seven strains were isolated from ewe’s and cow’s milk (Enterococcus faecalis – five –, Lactococcus lactis and Lactobacillus paracasei). Four were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), isolated from cheese (Lactobacillus casei 393), human feces (L. paracasei 27092 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus 53103) and used in cheese making (L. lactis 54104). Although none of the strains was able to degrade mucin, all E. faecalis showed, at least, one transferable antibiotic resistance, which excluded them as candidates for addition to foods. Of the remaining six safe strains, L. lactis strains were more tolerant to low pH than Lactobacillus spp.; all were tolerant to pancreatin and bile salts and showed antibacterial activity. The highest level of adhesion to Caco-2 cells was observed with L. lactis 660, even higher than L. rhamnosus ATCC 53103 (recognized probiotic and used as control). The physiological probiotic properties of these strains, mainly isolated from dairy sources, are interesting in view of their use in cheese productions as starter and non starter cultures. The five LAB safe strains studied may have potential as novel probiotics in the dairy foods. 相似文献

Pediococci are part of the non-starter lactic acid bacteria, LAB, contributing towards cheese ripening. This study was aimed at isolating, characterizing and evaluating the antimicrobial activity of Pediococcus species occurring among commercial and farm-style cheese. Logarithmic counts of LAB ranged from 6.9 to 9.4 cfu/g. Microscopic examination identified 110 (18%) of 606 isolates as presumptive pediococci distributed among farm-style cheese (pasteurized Gouda, young and matured; un-pasteurized aged Bouquet, aged and matured Gouda), in numbers of 33, 21, 28, 12 and 16, respectively. Pediococci were absent in commercial Cheddar cheese. Characterization of pediococci identified 49 Pediococcus acidilactici and 61 Pediococcus pentosaceus isolates. Fifty-two isolates from both species, 27 (24%) P. acidilactici and 25 (23%) P. pentosaceus, inhibited Lactococcus lactis NCDO 176 through the action of pediocins. Among these isolates, seven (6%) P. acidilactici and six (7%) P. pentosaceus inhibited Bacillus cereus ATCC 1178 while 17 (15%) P. acidilactici and 20 (18%) P. pentosaceus inhibited Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644. Inhibition levels were variable against L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644 and low against B. cereus ATCC 1178. Both Pediococcus species showed similar inhibition patterns; however, more isolates of P. pentosaceus inhibited L. lactis NCDO 176 and L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644 compared to P. acidilactici. 相似文献
