Abstract
ABSTRACT
Characterization by partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing, ribotyping, and green fluorescent protein-based nisin bioassay revealed that 6 of 20 human milk samples contained nisin-producing
Lactococcus lactis
bacteria. This suggests that the history of humans consuming nisin is older than the tradition of consuming fermented milk products.
