Abstract
The aim of the study was the bio-control effectiveness of the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum S61 strain, isolated from traditional fermenting green olives, against Escherichia coli B805 in ground beef. The bio-control effect of L. plantarum S61 against E. coli B805 was evaluated in ground meat during storage under refrigeration at 4 °C. The results showed that L. plantarum S61 reduced the biomass of pathogenic bacteria (E. coli) in ground meat during 10 days of storage at 4 °C. Moreover, the treatment with L. plantarum S61 has no adverse effect on the sensory properties of ground meat after 10 days of storage at 4 °C. The treatment with L. plantarum S61 and storage at 4 °C effectively decreases the growth and risk of pathogenic bacteria in ground meat and, consequently, increases the product’s shelf life. Therefore, the application of L. plantarum S61 during the storage of ground meat beef may help reduce the use of chemical preservatives in meat products. Consequently, L. plantarum S61 can be applied as a bio-control agent against spoilage and pathogenic bacteria in meat and meat products.
