Enhanced bacteriocin production by Pediococcus pentosaceus 147 in co-culture wi...
Nero, Luis Augusto; Gutiérrez-Cortés, Carolina; Suarez, Héctor; Buitrago, Gustavo; Todorov, Svetoslav DimitrovThe production of bacteriocins by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been of wide interest in the food industry due to their potential application in biopreservation. The production of bacteriocins is usually low in single strain fermentation, but can improve when the bacteriocinogenic strain is cultured in association with another bacteria. The present work aims to evaluate the growth and production of bacteriocin...
Characterization of bacteriocins produced by strains of Pediococcus pentosaceus...
Nero, Luis Augusto; Gutiérrez-Cortés, Carolina; Suarez, Héctor; Buitrago, Gustavo; Todorov, Svetoslav DimitrovInterest in obtaining bacteriocin-producing strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from different sources has been increasing in recent years due to their multiple applications in health and food industries. This study focused on the isolation and characterization of metabolically active populations of bacteriocinogenic LAB and the evaluation of their antimicrobial substances as well as of some nutritional requi...
