Summary

Cells of a strain of Lactobacillus lactis selected for ability to produce hydrogen peroxide were added to Trypticase soy broth containing Escherichia coli O157:H7 to determine if L. lactis was antagonistic toward the E. coli during storage at 7 deg C for 7 days. E. coli was enumerated on violet red bile agar. Three strains of E. coli O157:H7 were evaluated. control samples containing no L. lactis did not show significant declines in numbers of E. coli after only 3 days of storage for all strains. More details are given.
