Use of bacteriocinogenic cultures to improve the safety of food products would represent an attractive alternative to the use of chemical preservatives, based on the long history of safe use of naturally occurring bacteriocin producing food-grade bacteria. Chapter One in this book discusses the effects of bacteriocin production in situ by bacteria in food products and evidence for the probiotic properties of bacteriocin producers ... Read more
