Benefits and Inputs From Lactic Acid Bacteria and Their Bacteriocins as Alternatives to Antibiotic Growth Promoters During Food-Animal Production

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Resistance to antibiotics is escalating and threatening humans and animals worldwide. Different countries have legislated or promoted the ban of antibiotics as growth promoters in livestock and aquaculture to reduce this phenomenon. Therefore, to improve

Combating biofilms of foodborne pathogens with bacteriocins by lactic acid bacteria in the food industry.

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, 2022
Most foodborne pathogens have biofilm-forming capacity and prefer to grow in the form of biofilms. Presence of biofilms on food contact surfaces can lead to persistence of pathogens and the recurrent cross-contamination of food products, resulting in ...

Bacteriocins of lactic acid bacteria: extending the family

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2016
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitute a heterogeneous group of microorganisms that produce lactic acid as the major product during the fermentation process. LAB are Gram-positive bacteria with great biotechnological potential in the food industry.
