Table 1. Anti-listeria activity of different Ply500 formulations against L. innocua assessed after incubation with 1 mL of a suspension containing 105 CFU/mla.

Ply500 Formulation Log CFU reduction after 24 h Retention of native enzyme activity (plating assay) as a percentage relative to native enzyme Retention of native enzyme activity (cell wall assay) as a percentage relative to native enzyme
Ply500 (20 μg/ml) 4.7 ± 0.05 100% 100%
Ply500-SNP (60 μg/ml) 4.6 ± 0.02 33 n.d.b
Ply500 film (500 μg/ml) 1.6 ± 0.12 3.9 ± 0.05 n.d.b
FP (20 μg/ml) 0.3 ± 0.02 51 ± 4 4.5 ± 0.5
FP10 (20 μg/ml) 2.5 ± 0.30 99 ± 0.5 32 + 4.0
FP10-starch nanoparticle (80 μg/ml) 2.9 ± 0.18 24 ± 0.02 n.d.b

aListeria cells were grown in BHI media for 7 h. Standard deviations were calculated from triplicate measurements. No significant killing was observed with controls of SNP-NCO, overnight wash of Ply500-SNP, Film (without Ply500), overnight wash of Ply500 film, MBP, starch nanoparticles, and MBP-starch nanoparticles. The concentration (in μg/mL) in column one represents the Ply500 content of the formulation.

bnot determined.
