Title

E. Uhlig; A. Kjellström; N. Nurminen; et al. Innovative Food Science & Emerging Technologies 2021. doi:10.1016/j.ifset.2021.102862
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Of 295 tested bacterial strains from leafy greens, 37 showed antagonistic effect against E. coli in vitro
- Observation Antagonistic strains coated on spinach seeds lowered the relative abundance of plant and human pathogenic genera in the field
- Intervention effect Pseudomonas cedrina and P. punonenis reduced Escherichia-Shigella as seeds developed into plants
- Observation Seeds inoculated with Bacillus coagulans strains had increased Lactobacillaceae levels
- Intervention effect B. coagulans LMG P-32206 lowered Pantoea levels on spinach from 31.4% to 12.2%
- Recommendation Bacterial antagonists should be used to reduce the risk of human pathogens on leafy green vegetables
