BACTERIOPHAGES FOR LACTOCOCCI AND OTHER LACTIC ACIC BACTERIA
This section contains
information on the discovery; biology;lysins;
industrial significance; control; isolation, propagation, storage and
enumeration (assay) of lactococcal
bacteriophages.
It is important to note that while bacteriophage, usually abbreviated to phage, infection is a major cause of poor growth and acid production by starter cultures, that these bacteria may also be inhibited by added substances including antibiotics, sterilant and detergent residues, or free fatty acids produced by or as a result of the growth of microorganisms, and natural often called indigenous antimicrobial proteins. Additionally use of incorrect temperatures during fermentation processes can also cause problems.
