The Properties of Nisin
Nisin is a polypeptide produced by Lactococcus lactis and can be digested into amino acids by a-chymotrypsin in in human intestines and stomach. The use of nisin will not affect the normal bacterial community , nor produce the drug resistance or chiasmatic resistance as it happened when the antibiotics used. Nisin is a nonpoisonous and high efficacious food preservative/anti-microbial agent.
It possesses anti-microbial activity against a wide range of Gram-posit-ive bacteria , particularly those that produce spores , which are the major food spoilage organisms , such as Clostridium botulinum , Staphylococcus aureus , Streptococcus hemolyticus, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus stearothermophilus, Bacillus subtilis etc.
