Dear raffay, due to busiest schedule i wan unable to reply as soon, it requires free time and efforts to dig the information and post so that the whole world benefits...

Bacteriocins are ubiquitous in nature and clearly serve some critical role, they also possess qualities that can be tapped for a myriad of applied uses. In recent years, bacteriocins have been targeted for use in human health, veterinary medicine, and food preservation (Cleveland et al., 2001; Bower et al., 2004, 2005) They are an attractive focus for drug development because they active against every known human, animal, and plant pathogen existing in nature, they are remarkably stable proteins, and they are not toxic to human cells. The use of the bacteriocin nisin in food production (Breukink and de Kruijff, 1999) lends credence to their perceived promise in human therapy. Nisin is the star of bacteriocins. It is the only bacteriocin allowed as a food additive (E234), recognized as safe (FAO/WHO, 1968), and accepted by the American Food and Drug Administration (1988). In the Food Industry bacteriocins, such as nisin and pediocin, have diverse applications and can be invaluable tools to self protect food in a wide range of applications.

Hope the attached information is sufficient...

Hi. I do not want to sound naive but before attacking the problem with a chemical, shouldn't we review GMP's and other prerequisite programs?. Is this the best option after a robust haccp analysis of your system?. Regards.
