Insight into the Postbiotic Potential of the Autochthonous Bacteriocin-Producing <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> BGZLM1-5 in the Reduction in the Abundance of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> ATCC19111 in a Milk Model

This study aimed to explore the probiogenomic characteristics of artisanal bacteriocin-producing <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> BGZLM1-5 and its potential application in reducing <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> in a milk model. The BGZLM1-5 strain was isolated from raw cow’s milk...

description This study aimed to explore the probiogenomic characteristics of artisanal bacteriocin-producing <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> BGZLM1-5 and its potential application in reducing <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> in a milk model. The BGZLM1-5 strain was isolated from raw cow’s milk from households in the Zlatar Mountain region. The whole genome sequencing approach and bioinformatics analyses reveal that the strain BGZLM1-5 is non-pathogenic to humans. Bacteriocin-containing supernatant was thermally stable and antimicrobial activity retained 75% of the initial activity compared with that of the control after treatment at 90 °C for 30 min. Antimicrobial activity maintained relative stability at pH 3–11 and retained 62.5% of the initial activity compared with that of the control after treatment at pH 1, 2, and 12. The highest activity of the partially purified bacteriocin was obtained after precipitation at 40% saturation with ammonium sulfate and further purification by mixing with chloroform. Applying 3% and 5% (<i>v/v</i>) of the bacteriocin-containing supernatant and 0.5% (<i>v</i>/<i>v</i>) of the partially purified bacteriocin decreased the viable number of <i>L. monocytogenes</i> ATCC19111 after three days of milk storage by 23.5%, 63.5%, and 58.9%, respectively.
