RESUMO

The application of bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria as biopreservatives in foods depends of several factors, such as the chemical composition of the food, which can interfere with the antimicrobial activity. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of food ingredients on the growth and production of bacteriocins by Lactobacillus sakei subsp. sakei 2a, and on the activity of the bacteriocins produced, by means of a food model prepared with meat extract, yeast extract, proteose-peptone and starch, added of 4% 4% de NaCl and/or glucose, maintained under refrigeration (4° C) for up to 10 days. The study was carried out with the following bacteriocins-containing materials: 1. the concentrated cell-free supernatant from an overnight culture of L.sakei 2a in MRS broth; 2. acid extract obtained from the sediment of the overnight culture of L. sakei 2a in MRS broth and 3. acid extract submitted to a semi-purification by HPLC. Listeria monocytogenes Scott A was used as the antimicrobial activity indicator microorganism and Lactobacillus sakei ATCC15521 as the non-bacteriocinogenic negative control. Results indicated that none of the ingredients presented a significant role in the growth of L.sakei 2a, and in the production and activity of the bacteriocins. However, 4% of NaCl caused a reduction on the production of bacteriocins, while 0,5% of glucose stimulated their production, even in the presence of 4% of NaCl. The interference of the ingredients of the model, 4% of NaCl and/or 0,5% of glucose on the activity of the bacteriocins was not marked, regardless the materials used in the tests.
