Hydrogen peroxide production by Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis I at 5°C.

Author(s) : VILLEGAS E., GILLILAND S. E.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Cells of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis I produced hydrogen peroxide at 5°C in sodium phosphate buffer (0.2 M, pH 6.5) with or without glucose. However, if the cells were starved by preincubation in buffer alone, glucose or sodium lactate were necessary to cause hydrogen peroxide production at 5°C. Results suggested the presence of a lactate oxidase in the organism which used D-lactate to produce hydrogen peroxide.
