The antilisterial effect of enterocins A and B in meat and meat products (cooked ham, minced pork meat, deboned chicken breasts, pâté, and slightly fermented sausages [espetec]) have been shown. An infective dose of 5 to 10 most probable numbers (MPN)/g to simulate the counts of Listeria generally found in meat products was used. Enterocins at 4,80...
