Antibacterial activity of lactic cultures isolated of Italian salami
Lactic acid bacteria were isolated in the MRS, D-MRS and M17 modified media, during the processing of Italian salami, obtained from two processing plants, in the State of Paraná. The 484 isolates were tested for their antibacterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes (Microbiology Laboratory-UFV), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Salmonella enteritidis (ATCC 13076) and Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), by a deferred method. One hundred and fifteen isolates inhibited at least two of the pathogens. The isolates presented larger inhibition against L. monocytogenes. The 45 isolates with antagonistic action on the four indicator bacteria were identified by the system Biolog. Lactobacillus bifermentans prevailed among the isolates identified in MRS medium from the samples of the two processing plants.
