Three culture media were studied for the bacteriocin like substance (BLS) production from Carnobacterium piscicola L 103 in a batch and continuous culture system. The efficacy of the antagonistic substance against Listeria monocytogenes was tested on vacuum packaged salmon. BLS was produced in a 1.0 L bioreactor by batch and continuous culture using D-MRS, mod. D-MRS and APT as nutrient broths. Salmon fillets were inoculated with BLS (200 AU mL-1 and 800 AU mL-1) and 8.0 x 10¹ cfu cm-2 of L. monocytogenes and stored at 4ºC. The growth of L. monocytogenes was determined every 5 days during 15 days. After 12 h of batch culture the stationary growth phase of C. piscicola L 103 started, with a BLS activity of 800 AU mL-1 in D-MRS and mod. D-MRS broth, and of 400 AU mL-1 in APT broth. During continuous culture BLS activity increased to 6400 AU mL-1 in both types of MRS broths, while in APT the activity decreased to 50 AU mL-1, indicating a clear advantage of the first two culture media and also of the continuous culture system. BLS had a bacteriostatic effect on L. monocytogenes when inoculated on salmon, with counts of 6.0 x 10³ cfu cm-2 after 15 days. No significant differences were found between the two BLS activities used. In the control without BLS, L. monocytogenes counts increased to 1.0 x 10(6) cfu cm-2 after 15 days of storage.
