Use of a bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici to inhibit Listeria monocytogenes associated with fresh meat.

A bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici had an inhibitory and bactericidal effect on Listeria monocytogenes associated with fresh meat. MICs were significantly lower than minimum killing concentrations. When meat was inoculated with L. monocytogenes, the bacteriocin reduced the number of attached bacteria in 2 min by 0.5 to 2.2 log cycles depending upon bacteriocin concentration. Mea...

Inhibition of Listeria monocytogenes by using bacteriocin PA-1 produced by Pediococcus acidilactici PAC 1.0.

The bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici PAC 1.0, previously designated PA-1 bacteriocin, was found to be inhibitory and bactericidal for Listeria monocytogenes. A dried powder prepared from PAC 1.0 culture supernatant fortified with 10% milk powder was found to contain bacteriocin activity. An MIC against L. monocytogenes and lytic effects in broth cultures were determined. Inhibit...

Collapse of the proton motive force in Listeria monocytogenes caused by a bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici.

The effect of pediocin JD, a bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici JD1-23, on the proton motive force and proton permeability of resting whole cells of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A was determined. Control cells, treated with trypsin-inactivated bacteriocin at a pH of 5.3 to 6.1, maintained a pH gradient and a membrane potential of approximately 0.65 pH unit and 75 mV, respectively....

Plasmid-Associated Bacteriocin Production and Sucrose Fermentation in Pediococcus acidilactici.

Production of bacteriocin activity designated pediocin PA-1 was associated with the presence of a 6.2-megadalton plasmid in Pediococcus acidilactici PAC1.0. The bacteriocin exhibited activity against P. acidilactici, P. pentosaceus, Lactobacillus plantarum, L. casei, L. bifermentans, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum. Partial characterization of pediocin PA-1 is described. The mo...

Biocontrol of Listeria monocytogenes on fresh-cut produce by treatment with lytic bacteriophages and a bacteriocin.

The fresh-cut produce industry has been the fastest-growing portion of the food retail market during the past 10 years, providing consumers with convenient and nutritious food. However, fresh-cut fruits and vegetables raise food safety concerns, because exposed tissue may be colonized more easily by pathogenic bacteria than intact produce. This is due to the higher availability of nutrients on ...
