Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 180:110477. [PMID: 39003969 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2024.110477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
The present paper deals with the preparation and annotation of a surfactin(s) derived from a culture of the endophytic bacterium Bacillus 15 F. The LC-MS analysis of the acetonitrile fraction confirmed the presence of surfactins Leu/Ile7 C15, Leu/Ile7 C14 and Leu/Ile7 C13 with [M+H]+ at m/z 1036.6895, 1022.6741 and 1008.6581, respectively. Various concentrations of the surfactin(s) (hereafter referred to as surfactin-15 F) were used to reduce the adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis S61, which served as a model for studying antibiofilm activity on polystyrene surfaces. Incubation of Staphylococcus epidermidis S61 with 62.5 µg/ml of surfactin-15 F resulted in almost complete inhibition of biofilm formation (90.3 ± 3.33 %), and a significant reduction of cell viability (resazurin-based fluorescence was more than 200 times lower). The antiadhesive effect of surfactin-15 F was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Surfactin-15 F demonstrated an eradication effect against preformed biofilm, causing severe disruption of Staphylococcus epidermidis S61 biofilm structure and reducing viability. The results suggest that surfactins produced by endophytic bacteria could be an alternative to synthetic products. Surfactin-15 F, used in wound dressings, demonstrated an efficient treatment of the preformed Staphylococcus epidermidis S61 biofilm, and thus having a great potential in medical applications.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is an important foodborne pathogen that causes listeriosis, a severe and fatal condition. Biofilms are communities of microorganisms nested within a self-secreted extracellular polymeric substance, and they protect L. monocytogenes from environmental stresses. Biofilms, once formed, can lead to the persistence of L. monocytogenes in processing equipment and are therefore considered to be a major concern for the food industry. This paper briefly introduces the recent advancements on biofilm formation characteristics and detection methods, and focuses on analysis of the mechanism of L. monocytogenes biofilm resistance; Moreover, this paper also summarizes and discusses the existing different techniques of L. monocytogenes biofilm control according to the physical, chemical, biological, and combined strategies, to provide a theoretical reference to aid the choice of effective control technology in the food industry.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 228:113391. [PMID: 37290199 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
This work aimed to determine the ability of Listeria innocua (L.i.) to colonize eight materials found in food-processing and packaging settings and to evaluate the viability of the sessile cells. We also selected four commonly used phytochemicals (trans-cinnamaldehyde, eugenol, citronellol, and terpineol) to examine and compare their efficacies against L.i. on each surface. Biofilms were also deciphered in chamber slides using confocal laser scanning microscopy to learn more about how phytochemicals affect L.i. The materials tested were silicone rubber (Si), polyurethane (PU), polypropylene (PP), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), stainless steel 316 L (SS), copper (Cu), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and borosilicate glass (GL). L.i. colonized Si and SS abundantly, followed by PU, PP, Cu, PET, GL, and PTFE surfaces. The live/dead status ranged from 65/35% for Si to 20/80% for Cu, and the estimates of cells unable to grow on Cu were the highest, reaching even 43%. Cu was also characterized by the highest degree of hydrophobicity (ΔGTOT = -81.5 mJ/m2). Eventually, it was less prone to attachment, as we could not recover L.i. after treatments with control or phytochemical solutions. The PTFE surface demonstrated the least total cell densities and fewer live cells (31%) as compared to Si (65%) or SS (nearly 60%). It also scored high in hydrophobicity degree (ΔGTOT = -68.9 mJ/m2) and efficacy of phytochemical treatments (on average, biofilms were reduced by 2.1 log10 CFU/cm2). Thus, the hydrophobicity of surface materials plays a role in cell viability, biofilm formation, and then biofilm control and could be the prevailing parameter when designing preventive measures and interventions. As for phytochemical comparison, trans-cinnamaldehyde displayed greater efficacies, with the highest reductions seen on PET and Si (4.6 and 4.0 log10 CFU/cm2). The biofilms in chamber slides exposed to trans-cinnamaldehyde revealed the disrupted organization to a greater extent than other molecules. This may help establish better interventions via proper phytochemical selection for incorporation in environment-friendly disinfection approaches.

[PMID: 37374865 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11061364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen, the causative agent of listeriosis. Infections typically occur through consumption of foods, such as meats, fisheries, milk, vegetables, and fruits. Today, chemical preservatives are used in foods; however, due to their effects on human health, attention is increasingly turning to natural decontamination practices. One option is the application of essential oils (EOs) with antibacterial features, since EOs are considered by many authorities as being safe. In this review, we aimed to summarize the results of recent research focusing on EOs with antilisterial activity. We review different methods via which the antilisterial effect and the antimicrobial mode of action of EOs or their compounds can be investigated. In the second part of the review, results of those studies from the last 10 years are summarized, in which EOs with antilisterial effects were applied in and on different food matrices. This section only included those studies in which EOs or their pure compounds were tested alone, without combining them with any additional physical or chemical procedure or additive. Tests were performed at different temperatures and, in certain cases, by applying different coating materials. Although certain coatings can enhance the antilisterial effect of an EO, the most effective way is to mix the EO into the food matrix. In conclusion, the application of EOs is justified in the food industry as food preservatives and could help to eliminate this zoonotic bacterium from the food chain.
