Bioactive proteins against pathogenic and spoilage bacteria

چکیده
Glycinin, basic subunit and β-conglycinin were isolated from soybean protein isolate and tested for their antimicrobial action against pathogenic and spoilage bacteria as compared to penicillin. The three fractions exhibited antibacterial activities equivalent to or higher than penicillin in the next order; basic subunit>glycinin> β-conglycinin with MIC of 50, 100 and 1000 μg/mL, respectively. The IC50% values of the basic subunit glycinin and β-conglycinin against Listeria monocytogenes were 15, 16 and 695 μg/mL, against Bacillus subtilis were 17, 20, and 612 μg/mL, and against Salmonella Enteritidis were 18, 21 and 526 μg/mL, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy images of L. monocytogenes and S. Enteritidis exhibited bigger sizes and separation of cell wall from cell membrane when treated with glycinin or basic subunit. Scanning electron microscopy of B. subtilis indicated signs of irregular wrinkled outer surface, fragmentation, adhesion and aggregation of damaged cells or cellular debris when treated with glycinin or the basic subunits but not with penicillin. The proliferation of L. monocytogenes, S. Enteritidis and Escherichia coli O157:H7 artificially inoculated into raw milk stored at 4 or 25 °C were particularly and significantly (P<0·05) reduced by glycinin subunit and nisin (0·5% w/v), but only slightly by β-conglycinin and moderately by lysozyme.

متن کاملApplication of Baranyi function to model the antibacterial properties of solvent extract from Irish York cabbage against food spoilage and pathogenic bacteria.
Cabbage is a rich source of a number of bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, glucosinolates and their breakdown products which may have antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer properties. Outer green leaves of York cabbage were extracted with 60% methanol, ethanol or acetone. Antibacterial activities of vacuum dried crude extracts were estimated against a number of Gram-positive and Gram-n...
