  • the present invention relates to a method for reduction and/or prevention of the activity of gram-negative bacteria in or on products by using a composition based on fatty acid esters of glycerol.
  • the present invention further is directed to the products resulting from using this method.
  • Fatty acid monoesters of glycerol are known for their antibacterial activity against yeasts, fungi and food-spoiiage bacteria. They a!so have antibacteriai activity against certain gram-positive food pathogenic bacteria such as for example Listeria and Clostridium. They are on themselves however not or hardly effective against gram-
  • the enhancer may be: an ⁇ -hydroxy acid, a ⁇ -hydroxy acid, other carboxylic acids, a chelating agent other than a carboxyiic acid, a phenolic compound (e.g. certain antioxidants and parabens) or a C1-C10 - monohydroxy alcohol.
  • a phenolic compound e.g. certain antioxidants and parabens
  • a C1-C10 - monohydroxy alcohol e.g. certain antioxidants and parabens
  • Further suitable enhancers are compounds highly specific for binding ferrous and/or ferric ion such as siderophores (e.g.
  • enterobactin enterobactin, pyochelin
  • iron binding proteins e.g lactoferrin, transferrin
  • chelators such as bacteriocins, antibacteriai enzymes, sugars, sugar alcohol and combinations thereof.
  • Above-mentioned chelating agent is described to be an organic compound capable of multiple coordination sites with a meta! ion in solution. Typically these chelating agents are polyanionic compounds and coordinate best with polyvalent metal ions.
  • Examples are ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and salts thereof, various phosphate-based and/or phosphonic acid-based compounds, adipic acid, succinic acid, diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid, 1-hydroxyethy!ene and certain carboxylic acids such as ⁇ - and ⁇ -hydroxy acids, malic acid and tartaric acid.

  • Fatty acid esters of glycerol are usually applied as emulsifiers but it has now been surprisingly found that they may be applied as antibacterial agent against specifically gram-negative bacteria as wel! by using them in a composition comprising poiyiysine and/or a salt hereof.
  • the combination of poiyiysine and/or salt with fatty acid esters of glycerol is capable of not simply enhancing the activity of both components whereby said enhancing effect is the sum of the individual activities of both the poiyiysine and the glycerol fatty acid ester, but it unexpectedly demonstrates a synergistic effect on the antibacterial activity as both components works in synergy resulting in an antibacterial activity which is significantly higher than the sum of the activities of the individuai
  • enhancers are themselves not very effective against gram- negative bacteria and thus have to be appiied in high quantities to show any enhancing antibacterial effect, in the quantities needed to achieve this antibacterial effect, said enhancers negatively affect the quality of the food product in which they are appiied in terms of taste, color, odor and/or texture.
  • Organic acids for example are not that effective by themselves against gram- negative bacteria and in order to have an enhancing effect, a considerable amount of the organic acid is needed.
  • the acid however negatively affects taste, texture and other properties of many products as they lower the phi of said food product in the quantity necessary to have any antibacteriai effect.
  • Acids are for example known to negatively affect the texture of protein-rich products (e.g. meat products) because they lead to for example the denaturation of the proteins.
  • the fatty acid esters of glycerol used in the method according to the present invention are also not very effective on their own against gram-negative bacteria, but in combination with poiylysine and/or a salt hereof, a synergisticaliy increased antibacterial activity is obtained at concentrations of the glycerol fatty acid esters that are acceptable in many food and drink products.
  • Polylysine is known to exert an antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria. Both ⁇ -po!y!ysine and ⁇ - ⁇ o!ySysine have antibacteria! activity although the latter one in significant greater extent as described by Shima et al. (Nov. 1984). As described in the article, ⁇ -polyiysine can effectively be used against gram-positive and -negative bacteria
  • Hiraki et al. (2000) describe that when ⁇ -poiylysine is used together with antibacterial agents such as glycine, acetic acid (in the form of vinegar), ethanol or thiamine iauryisulfonate, its antibacterial efficiency is greatly enhanced.

  • Polyiysine may be present as ⁇ -poiylysine, as ⁇ -poiylysine or as a mixture hereof.
  • ⁇ -Polyiysine is preferred as it has a higher antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria compared to the other forms of poiylysine and thus lesser amounts of this antibacteria! agent are needed to achieve a satisfactory synergy in the antibacterial
  • ⁇ -poly!ysine preferably comprises 30 to 50 L-lysine monomers linked by the peptide bonds between the free carboxyi groups and the e-amino groups.

  • Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 13311 and Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC 700728 were grown in sterile screw capped tubes containing Brain heart infusion broth for 18 - 24 hours at 30 0 C.
  • Fiiets were subsequently sterilized by gamma-irradiation (average radiation dose: 12 kiioGray).
  • Chicken fiiets were briefly dipped and completeiy submersed in 1 I of a solution containing the appropriate formulation and then transferred to 400 mi Bagfilter® lateral filter bags (interscience, St Nom, France) containing 5 mi of the appropriate formulation. Bags were vacuum-sealed and incubated at 12 0 C for up to 7 days untii further analysis. Time zero samples were plated within 30 min after dipping.
  • Sterile iow fat milk was purchased fro a iocaS supermarket and 100 mi quantities were transferred to a series of sterile screw topped bottles.
  • ⁇ -Poiylysine The sodium salt of glyceryl mono/di octanoate (C8 mono/di giyceride) and glyceryl mono/di decanoate (C10 mono/di giyceride) was added to a concentration as shown in Tabie 2.
  • the different milk preparations were inoculated with an overnight culture of Escherichia coii O157:H7.
  • the starting ceil density was iog 10 2.5 - 3.0.
  • compositions of the formulations that were studied are shown in Table 2.
  • ⁇ - Polylysine and mono/di glycerides were dissolved in demineralised water and sterilized for 20 min at 12O 0 C.
  • ⁇ -Polylyssne was purchased from Chisso America lnc (New York, USA), The sodium salt of glyceryl mono/di octanoate (C8 mono/di giyceride) and glyceryl mono/di decanoate (C10 mono/di giyceride) were purchased from Caravan Ingredients (Lenexa, Kansas, USA).
