Plantaricin 423, produced by Lactobacillus plantarum, and bacteriocin ST4SA produced by Enterococcus mundtii, were electrospun into nanofibers prepared from different combinations of poly(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Both peptides were released from the nanofibers with a high initial burst and retained 88% of their original antimicrobial activity at 37 °C. Nanofibers have the potential to serve as carrier matrix for bacteriocins and open a new field in developing controlled antimicrobial delivery systems for various applications.
植物乳杆菌产生的植物乳杆菌素423和蒙氏肠球菌产生的细菌素ST4SA被静电纺丝到由溶解于N,N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)中的聚(d,l-丙交酯)(PDLLA)和聚环氧乙烷(PEO)的不同组合制备的纳米纤维中。两种肽均从纳米纤维中以高初始突释释放,并在37℃下保留其原始抗菌活性的88%。纳米纤维有潜力作为细菌素的载体基质,并为开发用于各种应用的可控抗菌递送系统开辟一个新领域。
