Isolation and identification of nisin producer strains of Lactococcus lactis from Lighvan cheese

In this study, strains of lactic acid bacteria capable of bacteriocin production were isolated from Lighvan cheese samples obtained from East Azerbaijan, Iran. Among 16 isolates initially identified as Lactococcus lactis, four isolates were phenotipically determined as bacteriocinogenic. The isolate...

description In this study, strains of lactic acid bacteria capable of bacteriocin production were isolated from Lighvan cheese samples obtained from East Azerbaijan, Iran. Among 16 isolates initially identified as Lactococcus lactis, four isolates were phenotipically determined as bacteriocinogenic. The isolates showed inhibitory effect on the growth of Gram-positive food borne pathogens including Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes by the agar spot test. Selected isolates were PCR-positive for nisin-encoding gene. The strains produced antibacterial substances resistant to α-amylase but sensitive to trypsin and proteinase K. Thermo-stability was indicated after treatment at 100 °C for 30 minutes. The antibacterial activity was pH dependent and occurred in pH 3 and 6, but at pH 9 the antibacterial activity was mainly restricted. No loss in antibacterial activity was recorded after treatment with SDS, Tween20, Tween 80, Triton X-100, urea and EDTA. The results suggest the potential application of these isolates as biopreservatives in food products.
