Increasing Demand for Highly-Processed Packaged Food and Beverage Products to Augment Growth of Nisin Market

Image
    Nisin is a synthetic polycyclic antibacterial peptides made by the bacterium L. lactis, which is widely used as a pre-packed food preservative. It has 34 unique amino acid residues, with the very rare amino acid methyllanthionine. Nisin has been shown to be effective in inhibiting bacterial growth and preventing pathogenicity of pathogens and organisms, thus making it a promising food preservative. Nisin inhibits the bacteria's ability to adhere to food particles by forming an adhesive between the food particles and the microorganisms. The sticky substance also prevents the food particles from being washed away during washing or after rinsing, thereby allowing them to penetrate further into the body of the host. When the bacteria are exposed to a suitable concentration of Nisin, it will be unable to attach to the food particles, therefore ensuring that the food remains intact and undisturbed. The use of Nisin as a preservative has long been recommended by he...
