Abstract

Lactic acid bacteria H6 was isolated from dried yak jerky by plate dilution method, and using theListeria monocytogenesas indicator, the Oxford cup method was used to test the bacteriostasis effect. Lactic acid bacteria H6 were identified asPediococcus pentosaceusby 16S rRNA sequence. The growth curve ofPediococcus pentosaceusH6 was determined by Turbidimetry, and the antibacterial activity of bacteriocin H6 was measured by two fold dilution method and the Oxford cup method. Studying on the thermal stability and pH stability, our results indicated that the barteriocin H6 has better antibacterial effect in acidic conditions or at 100 °C for 90min. The antibacterial spectrum of bacteriocin H6 proved its good inhibitory effect on proliferation ofListeria monocytogenesand other Gram-positive bacteria, and had a certain inhibitory effect onEscherichia coliand other Gram-negative bacteria, showing a broad-spectrum antibacterial property, which demonstrate its great potential in food preservation
