Bacteriocin AS-48 showed high bactericidal activity for mesophilic and psychrotrophic strains of Bacillus cereus over a broad pH range. AS-48 inhibition of the enterotoxin-producing strain LWL1 was enhanced by sodium nitrite, sodium lactate, and sodium chloride. The latter also enhanced AS-48 activity against strain CECT 131. Bacterial growth and enterotoxin production by strain LWL1 were completely inhibited at bacteriocin concentrations of 7.5 mug/ml. At subinhibitory bacteriocin concentrations, enterotoxin production decreased markedly and sporulation was delayed. Intact spores were resistant to AS-48 but became gradually sensitive to AS-48 during the course of germination.
