Resumo: The aim of this study was to characterize bacteriocins produced by 70 strains of Enterococcus mundtii.Four strains exhibited antibiotic activity towards Listeria innocua, L. monocytogenes, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Salmonella Enteritidis. They remained active under temperatures of up to 121ºC for 20 min, and under pH treatments that varied from 2.0 to 10.0. Antimicrobial activity was maintained during the storage test for 60 days under freezing. The kinetics of production revealed the peak activity of 1600 AU /mL during the logarithmic growth phase and the molecular weight found was approximately 3.0 kDa. The characterization of the products with antimicrobial activity indicated their proteic nature, presenting a typical kinetics of primary metabolite and a molecular weight similar to many purified enterocins.
