Characterization and Removal of Multispecies Biofilms Formed by L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, and E. coli

Journal of Food Safety, Volume 46, Issue 4, August 2026.
The formation of mono‐, dual‐, and triple‐species biofilms by L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, and E. coli was characterized by cell growth, metabolic activity, staining, and microscopy. Their resistance to a commercial disinfectant (NaOCl) and natural agents such as vinegar and lactic acid was evaluated.

Bacteriocin diversity and the frequency of multiple bacteriocin production in Escherichia coli

, 2006
A collection of 266 faecal isolates of Escherichia coli from humans was assayed for the production of mitomycin C-inducible bacteriocins and screened using a PCR-based method for the presence of eleven colicins and seven microcins.

Inonotus obliquus Ameliorates Metabolic Dysfunction and Attenuates Obesity by Enriching Enterococcus casseliflavus

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Inonotus obliquus mitigates obesity through the targeted enrichment of intestinal Enterococcus casseliflavus (EC). EC facilitates thermogenesis in adipose tissues, augments energy expenditure, enhances systemic metabolic homeostasis, and diminishes low‐grade inflammation.

Probiotics and Their Functional Role in Mitigating Antinutrient Effects In Vivo—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Antinutrients like phytic acid and oxalates reduce mineral bioavailability by forming insoluble complexes with iron, zinc, and calcium. Probiotic supplementation may counteract these effects through enzymatic activity (e.g., phytase, oxalate decarboxylase) and microbiota modulation. This PRISMA‐based meta‐analysis evaluated 27 in vivo studies (

Multiplexed bacteriocin synthesis to combat and prevent antimicrobial resistance

Bacteriocins are underexplored yet promising candidates to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and enable targeted therapy due to their natural origin, abundance and narrow spectrum of activity.

Traditional Fermented Dairy Products as Reservoirs of Bifidobacterium With Probiotic Potential: From Microbial Diversity to Functional Characterization

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Traditional fermented dairy products (TFDPs) are complex microbial ecosystems that may serve as reservoirs of many microorganisms, including those with probiotic potential such as Bifidobacterium species and lactobacilli. Although bifidobacteria are widely used as probiotic microorganisms in defined formulations, their occurrence, persistence,

Isolation and characterization of microbes producing bacteriocin from curd, raw milk and soil and its preservative effects

, 2014
Bacteriocins are proteinaceous substance produced by bacteria to inhibit the growth of similar or closely related bacterial strains. They are typically considered to be narrow spectrum antibiotics produced by both gram negative and gram positive range of

Antagonistic activity expressed by Shigella sonnei: identification of a putative new bacteriocin

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
Bacteriocins are antibacterial, proteinaceous substances that mediate microbial dynamics. Bacteriocin production is a highly disseminated property among all major lineages of bacteria, including Shigella.

Revisiting the Multifaceted Roles of Bacteriocins

Microbial Ecology
AbstractBacteriocins are gene-encoded antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria. These peptides are heterogeneous in terms of structure, antimicrobial activities, biosynthetic clusters, and regulatory mechanisms. Bacteriocins are widespread in nature and may contribute to microbial diversity due to their capacity to target specific bacteria ...
