NISIN AND BREWING [PDF]

Journal of the Institute of Brewing, 1988
Nisin, an internationally accepted food preservative has been shown to inhibit the growth of almost all Gram-positive beer-spoilage bacteria investigated. The initial effects on these bacteria appear to be upon the cell membrane. Nisin has little effect on most Gram-negative bacteria and has no effect upon the growth and fermentation properties of ...

Combined Effect of Nisin and Ohmic Heating on Bacillus cereus Inactivation and Quality Preservation in Apple Juice

Journal of Food Safety, Volume 46, Issue 2, April 2026.
Apple juice was prepared and treated using Lactococcus lactis fermentation combined with nisin‐assisted ohmic heating (60 V, 30 s). The combined treatment achieved complete inactivation of Bacillus cereus. This approach preserves juice quality while providing an energy‐efficient and sustainable processing method. ABSTRACT There is increasing demand for

Nisin E, a New Nisin Variant Produced by Streptococcus equinus MDC1

Applied Sciences, 2023
Members of the genus Streptococcus inhabit a variety of sites in humans and other animals and some species are prolific producers of proteinaceous antibiotics (bacteriocins). As little is known about (i) streptococci inhabiting domestic pets, and (ii) whether novel bacteriocin-producing streptococci can be isolated from domestic pets, the aim of this ...

A Comprehensive Review on the Significance of Antioxidants and Their Influence on Biopolymer Packaging Films: Recent Advances and Challenges

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Influence of antioxidants‐loaded biopolymer films on food security and extended shelf life. ABSTRACT Autooxidation is a significant cause of quality deterioration in food systems, leading to nutrient loss, off‐flavor formation, textural changes, and overall spoilage.

Nevertheless, She Resisted – Role of the Environment on Listeria monocytogenes Sensitivity to Nisin Treatment in a Laboratory Cheese Model

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The growth of Listeria monocytogenes on refrigerated, ready-to-eat food products is a major health and economic concern. The natural antimicrobial nisin targets the bacterial cell wall and can be used to inhibit L. monocytogenes growth on cheese.

Microbiome‐urothelium crosstalk in bladder cancer: From dysbiosis to clinical translation

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
This review elucidates the critical crosstalk between the urobiome and bladder cancer (BCa), mapping the landscape from ecological dysbiosis to clinical translation. We synthesize emerging evidence on microbial signatures that distinguish BCa patients, exploring key carcinogenic mechanisms including chronic inflammation, genotoxicity, and the gut ...

Susceptibility of bifidobacteria to nisin [PDF]

Letters in Applied Microbiology, 1998
A collection of 17 bifidobacteria was tested for sensitivity or resistance to lantibiotic nisin. Minimal inhibitory concentration of the strain tested was highly variable, ranging from 4.88 to 10,000 IU-1. In general, strains isolated from faecal samples were more resistant than those purchased from culture collections. These results could be useful in

Oral Delivery of Nisin in Resistant Starch Based Matrices Alters the Gut Microbiota in Mice

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
There is a growing recognition of the role the gastrointestinal microbiota plays in health and disease. Ingested antimicrobial proteins and peptides have the potential to alter the gastrointestinal microbiota; particularly if protected from digestion ...

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, Volume 22, Issue 16, 17 March 2026.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.
