Description

Nisin is a bacteriocin that has been used for the preservation of food, such as cheese and eggs. Nisin is produced by Lactococcus lactis and has an acidic pH optimum. It has been shown to be effective against a number of bacteria, including typhimurium and subtilis. Nisin also shows synergistic interactions with other antimicrobial agents, such as sodium benzoate or sorbic acid. This preservative is often used in combination with other antimicrobials because it can be damaged by light and may cause allergic reactions. It is also important to note that nisin is not effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Staphylococcus aureus.
