The biocontrol of on fresh-cut tomato using nisin and organic acids was investigated. Fresh-cut samples inoculated with 10 CFU/mL of , treated with nisin (5,000 IU/mL), a combination of nisin and organic acids (acetic and citric acids at 3 and 5% each), with chlorine at 200 ppm as a control, and stored for six days at 4, 10, and 25°C were used to evaluate certain physicochemical qualities (pH, titratable acidity, soluble solid content, vitamin C content, and color). Nisin treatment significantly (<0.05) reduced bacterial population by 1.91-3.07 log CFU/mL. Nisin-citric acid combination provided 2.65-3.29 log CFU/mL reduction, while nisin-acetic acid combination provided 2.93-4.15 log CFU/mL reduction. The control treatment provided <1-2 fold log reductions. Slight variations in physicochemical properties of fresh-cut tomato were observed. Nisin and organic acids can be used to improve the microbial safety of fresh-cut tomato.
研究了用乳酸链球菌素和有机酸对鲜切番茄进行生物防治。接种了10 CFU/mL[具体微生物名称未给出]的鲜切样品,分别用乳酸链球菌素(5000 IU/mL)、乳酸链球菌素与有机酸的组合(乙酸和柠檬酸各为3%和5%)处理,以200 ppm的氯作为对照,并在4、10和25°C下储存6天,用于评估某些理化性质(pH值、可滴定酸度、可溶性固形物含量、维生素C含量和颜色)。乳酸链球菌素处理显著(<0.05)降低了细菌数量,降低幅度为1.91 - 3.07 log CFU/mL。乳酸链球菌素 - 柠檬酸组合使细菌数量降低了2.65 - 3.29 log CFU/mL,而乳酸链球菌素 - 乙酸组合使细菌数量降低了2.93 - 4.15 log CFU/mL。对照处理使细菌数量降低了不到1 - 2倍对数。观察到鲜切番茄的理化性质有轻微变化。乳酸链球菌素和有机酸可用于提高鲜切番茄的微生物安全性。
