- Abstract
- The antibiofilm effect of bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance (BLIS) from Enterococcus faecium DB1 against Clostridium perfringens was investigated in the present study. BLIS of E. faecium DB1 significantly reduced biofilm formation by C. perfringens in a dose-dependent manner for 24 and 48 h. In particular, treatment with BLIS of E. faecium DB1 significantly inhibited biofilm formation by C. perfringens on chicken meat and stainless steel coupon surfaces. Moreover, BLIS of E. faecium DB1 decreased the viability of C. perfringens biofilm and planktonic cells, indicating that the reduction of biofilm formation by C. perfringens might be achieved by killing the bacterial cells. Taken together, the present results suggest that BLIS of E. faecium DB1 can be a promising antibiofilm agent to eradicate C. perfringens.
