Bacteriophages of Leuconostoc, Oenococcus, and Weissella [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Leuconostoc (Ln.), Weissella and Oenococcus form a group of related genera of lactic acid bacteria, which once all shared the name Leuconostoc. They are associated with plants, fermented vegetable products, raw milk, dairy products, meat and fish.

Comparative Genomics of Leuconostoc carnosum [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Leuconostoc carnosum is a known colonizer of meat-related food matrices. It reaches remarkably high loads during the shelf life in packaged meat products and plays a role in spoilage, although preservative effects have been proposed for some strains.

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022 Leuconostoc is mostly found in food, plants, and dairy products. Due to their innate genomic features, such as the presence of carbohydrate-active enzymes, bacteriocins, and plasmids, Leuconostoc spp. have great biotechnological potential. In this study,

Successful Treatment of Leuconostoc Bacteremia in a Neutropenic Patient with Tigecycline
Infectious Disease Reports, 2012 Leuconostoc lactis is a recognised cause of infection in immunocompromised hosts. It is intrinsically resistant to multiple antibiotics and treatment options may be limited.

Phenotypic variation in growth and biofilm formation of Leuconostoc spp. from sugar beet factories [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyLeuconostoc bacteria are common colonizers of sugar crop processing environments, resulting in sucrose losses and the formation of exopolysaccharides (EPS) and biofilms that can lead to reduced product quality and higher operational costs.

Bacteremia caused by species : 6-case series [PDF]
Kosin Medical Journal, 2018 Leuconostoc species are Gram-positive coccobacilli and are used in dairy products and are intrinsically resistant to vancomycin. Leuconostoc infections are rare in humans, usually occurring in immune-compromised patients.

Antibiotic Susceptibility Profiles of Dairy Leuconostoc, Analysis of the Genetic Basis of Atypical Resistances and Transfer of Genes In Vitro and in a Food Matrix. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 In spite of a global concern on the transfer of antibiotic resistances (AR) via the food chain, limited information exists on this issue in species of Leuconostoc and Weissella, adjunct cultures used as aroma producers in fermented foods.
