NISIN COMPOSITIONS FOR USE AS ENHANCED, BROAD RANGE BACTERICIDES

摘要

Compositions comprising a lanthionine-containing bacteriocin such as nisin and a surfactant, especially a nonionic one, are useful as bactericides, especially against Gram positive bacteria. They have both food and medicinal applications. To avoid overlap of Claim with the parent application, chelating agents are excluded from the claimed compositions and uses.
