Researchers from the UGR use a bacterium to obtain biopreservatives from food
The research group “Estudio de sustancias antagonistas producidas por microorganismos” (Antagonistic substances produced by microorganisms), part of the Microbiology Department of the University of Granada (Universidad de Granada), has succeeded in isolating enterocin AS-48, which could have a medium-term use as food biopreservative. This represents a significant advance, given that biopreservation is an innovative method in food-preservation systems based on the use of microorganisms or their metabolic products to inhibit or destroy undesirable microorganisms.
