Abstract:
... The antibacterial activity of the lactoperoxidase system on the growth and survival of Listeria monocytogenes in trypticase soy broth, UHT milk and French soft cheese was determined. Several levels of Listeria cells, ranging from ca. 10 to 10(4) or 10(7) CFU/ml were studied. A comparison was made between the behavior of L. monocytogenes in these media with or without the lactoperoxidase system at ...

L. monocytogenes was able to survive during a 21 d fermentation of sausage with levels of nitrite and salt commonly used in the meat industry today (120 ppm NaNO2 and 3.0% NaCl). Initial numbers of Listeria (103 CFU/g and 105 CFU/g) decreased approximately 1 log 10 CFU/g during the manufacture. Increasi ...

The thermal inactivation of Salmonella thompson, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens, Candida zeylanoides, Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis was accelerated by the addition of sodium isoascorbate (1 mmol/1) to phosphate-buffer heating medium but not to complex food mixtures. The lethal effect of isoascorbate was nullified by heating under anaerobic conditions or by ...

Abstract:
... It has been demonstrated that human milk, unlike bovine milk, can reduce the viability of Bordetella pertussis. This antibacterial activity was not due to the presence of antibiotics or antibodies in the human milk. Reducing the level of available iron or increasing the concentration of lysozyme in bovine milk did not induce anti‐B. pertussis activity. Analysis of total fatty acids revealed that ...

Abstract:
... Food irradiation, typified by gamma rays from a cobalt 60 source, results in discontinuous or focal chemical damage to food components and microorganisms. A host of variables make the identification of a suitable dose for any food item difficult. There are so few products suitable for this treatment that it will do little to reduce the incidence of food poisoning. Before irradiation is used, the p ...

Hypophosphites were introduced in the mid 1800s as a cure for tuberculosis, but recent reports have suggested SHP could possess antibotulinal and antimicrobial properties. Sodium hypophosphite has good potential as an antimicrobial food i ...

The smugglins may be transported through any of three peptide permeases, and once inside the bacteria are activated by intracellular peptidase action to release their intrinsically impermeant, antibacterial moieties. When each such antibiotic peptide present in a mixture was ...
