Abstract
From the 25 fresh fruits and vegetable products, 1,250 isolates grown on MRS agar media were screened for the inhibitory activity on the growth of Escherichia coli 0157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, and Bacillus cereus as well as Lactobacillus plantarum, L. casei, and Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis. Among them, 607 isolates (49% of total isolates) from 23 different foods produced growth inhibitory activity on the E. coli 0157:H7, L. monocytogenes, or B. cereus. When these isolates were screened for the inhibitory activity on the growth of L. plantarum, L. casei, and Lactococcus lactis subsp., 24 isolates (3% of total isolates) from 7 food samples showed bacteriocin-like activity. These isolates had typical physiological characteristics of lactic acid bacteria, which indicated these isolates were strains of lactic acid bacteria. The inhibitor from 3 out of 24 revealed as nicin. From the RAPD-PCR profiles, 24 strains was classified and it was also indicated that most of the strains isolated from same produce showed similar phylogenetic profile.
