RÉDUCTION DE LA CONCENTRATION DE BACTÉRIES À GRAM NÉGATIF DANS UN PRODUIT ALIMENTAIRE FERMENTÉ PAR LA COMBINAISON D'EXTRAIT DE VIN ROUGE ET UNE CULTURE COMPRENANT AU MOINS UNE SOUCHE BACTÉRIENNE D'ACIDE LACTIQUE PRODUISANT DE LA BACTÉRIOCINE
The present invention relates to a method of reducing the concentration of Gram-negative bacteria in a food product, the method comprising adding a red wine extract produced from red wine by dealcoholization, concentration and drying, and a culture comprising at least one class IIa bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacterial strain to a food product, ripening the food product, and storing the food product at a temperature of at the most 15° C. until a concentration less than 1 E-1 of Gram-negative bacteria. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, Gram-negative bacteria already present are eliminated. In one embodiment of the invention, the Gram-negative bacteria are Salmonella ssp. The bacteriocin-producing culture may comprise at least one of Lactobacillus curvatus (DSM 18775) and Pediococcus acidilactici (DSM 28307). The invention further relates to a kit for reducing the concentration of Gram-negative bacteria in a food product comprising a red wine extract produced from red wine by dealcoholization, concentration and drying, and a culture comprising at least one class IIa bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacterial strain.
