Abstract:
With the increasing globalization of the food supply, foodborne infection and food poisoning brought by Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) have progressively become intractable issues. This work aimed to research the dual inhibitory effects of zinc -binding peptides (termed CSSP-Zn) on both planktonic and biofilm of S. aureus 6538, with respect to its utilization on pork models. Further research showed CSSP-Zn could disrupt the cytomembrane of permeability and integrity, triggering cytoplasm overflow, thereby causing proton motive force (PMF) collapse and metabolic disorder in planktonic strain 6538. The antibiofilm mechanism of CSSP-Zn primarily involved disrupting the expression of polysaccharide intercellular adhesion (PIA) biosynthesis -related genes (e.g. icaA , icaB , icaC and icaD ), causing an enervated intercellular adhesion and lessened biofilm viability. When employed to a pork model, CSSP-Zn could obviously attenuate strain 6538 colonization and enterotoxin secretion. These results not only demonstrated the practical antibacterial efficacy of CSSP-Zn but also offered a novel strategy for mitigating the risk of S. aureus contamination in pork.
