Brevicin 27, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus brevis SB27, is inhibitory mainly against closely related Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus buchneri strains. It was purified from the culture supernatant by a four-step purification procedure including ammonium sulfate precipitation, cation...
