Inhibitory effect of bacteriocins against Escherichia coli O157:H7

| Résumé: | The purpose of this study was to explore the activity of bacteriocin enterocin KP and lactococcin BZ against Escherichia coli O157:H7, a Gram-negative foodborne pathogen, in ultra-high temperature (UHT) milks with different fat ratios. Enterocin KP and lactococcin BZ were produced from two bacteriocinogenic strains, isolated in previous studies from White cheese and Boza. Full fat (3.0%), half fat (1.5%), and low fat (<0.1% fat) UHT milks inoculated with 102, 104, and 106 CFU/ml of E. coli O157:H7 were treated with different concentrations (400, 800, 1600, and 2500 AU/ml) of lactococcin BZ, enterocin KP, or a combination of both and stored at 4 or 20 ℃ for 20 days. The survival of E. coli O157:H7 was determined at both storage temperatures during the storage period of 20 days. Lactococcin BZ and enterocin KP had a bactericidal impact on E. coli O157:H7 in all UHT milk samples either separately or in combination. However, antibacterial activity of the bacteriocins decreased with increasing fat content of milk and inoculum levels of bacterium. The results of this study indicate that lactococcin BZ and enterocin KP may be useful candidates either separately or in combination as biopreservatives for use in the dairy industry to control the growth of pathogenic microorganisms |
