CAS 1414-45-5: nisin from streptococcus lactis
Description:Nisin is a polycyclic antibacterial peptide produced by the bacterium Lactococcus lactis, specifically classified as a lantibiotic due to its unique structure that includes unusual amino acids. It is characterized by its ability to inhibit the growth of a wide range of Gram-positive bacteria, including some pathogens, making it a valuable preservative in the food industry. Nisin functions by binding to lipid II, a key component in bacterial cell wall synthesis, disrupting the cell membrane and ultimately leading to cell death. It is recognized for its heat stability and effectiveness at low concentrations, which contributes to its use in food preservation, particularly in dairy products and canned foods. Additionally, nisin has been studied for its potential applications in medicine, particularly in combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Its safety for human consumption has been established, and it is classified as a Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) substance by regulatory agencies. Overall, nisin is a significant biopreservative with both industrial and potential therapeutic applications.
