Antimicrobial activity of Enterococcus faecium FAIR-E 198 against gram-positive pathogens [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2010
This study investigated the antimicrobial activity of Enterococcus faecium FAIR-E 198 against Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. Using the critical-dilution method, the bacteriocin produced by E. faecium FAIR-E 198 inhibited all L. monocytogenes strains evaluated (1,600 to 19,200 AU mL(-1)).
