Abstract
The extracellular substance of Bacillus has antibacterial effects inhibiting multiple foodborne pathogens and plays important roles in food production. This study found one Bacillus velezensis BVQ121 strain producing antibacterial lipopeptides (BVAL). After optimization of the fermentation conditions, the BVAL yield was the highest at 1.316 ± 0.03 g/L in reality with the initial pH 6.0, temperature 31 °C, and shaker speed 238 rpm when the optimal nitrogen and carbon sources were used in Landy medium for fermentation. The antibacterial components were identified as iturin, surfactin, and fengycin by HPLC and MALDI-TOF-MS. The MIC was at 2 mg/mL and MBC was at 5 mg/mL. The 6% weight ratio of nanocellulose dosage in chitosan solution could improve the tensile length and strength of the film, and the antibacterial performance was enhanced by the addition of BVAL. The addition of BVAL had no effect on the color and ductility of the film and improved its antibacterial effect. The shelf life of pigeon eggs can be extended by more than 10 days to resist bacterial infections after coating with the chitosan-nanocellulose-BVAL film solution.
