Summary

Antibacterial activity of the lacteroperoxydase-thiocyanate-hydrogen peroxyde system against four strains of L. monocytogenes is investigated. This activity depends on temperature, incubation time and the tested strain. At chilling temperatures, the activity of the lactoperoxydase system seems to be effective for regulating contamination of raw milk by Listeria.
