Purification of bacteriocin LS1 produced by human oral isolate <i>Lactobacillus salivarius</i> BGHO1

Abstract

Our results imply that LS1 is most probably a new bacteriocin, different from previously described bacteriocins produced by L. salivarius strains. The purification of bacteriocin LS1 enabled the further characterization of LS1 on both the molecular and genetic levels.
