Biopreservative application of bacteriocins obtained from samples Ictalurus punctatus and fermented Zea mays

This study evaluated the preservative ability of protein-like cell free supernatants produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates from samples of Ictalurus punctatus (Cat fish) and slurry of fermented Zea mays (Ogi). The LAB strains were separately isolated from understudied samples using De Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) media at 37C for 48 h. The isolated strains were characterized with G...
