  • Immobilization of hen egg white lysozyme by the sole histidine residue to polystyrene beads through peptide spacers

    Creator:
    Wu, Yawen
    Abstract:
    Lysozyme is a natural antimicrobial agent that is effective against many food spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms by disintegrating their cell walls. Immobilization of lysozyme has attractive applications for use in the food industry: (1) The enzyme could be readily separated from treated foods and beverages and re-used while the foods...

  • A study of nisin resistance in Listeria monocytogenes Scott A

    Creator:
    Ming, Xintian
    Abstract:
    Eight foodborne pathogenic and spoilage Gram-positive bacteria were evaluated for their spontaneous resistance frequencies to the peptide antimicrobial nisin. In brain heart infusion (BHI) medium, nisin resistance frequencies were in the range of l06 to l08 when exposed to nisin at concentrations 2 to 4 times the minimal inhibitory concentrations....
