Antifouling and antibacterial compounds from a marine fungus Cladosporium sp. F14 (2009, background): “Cyclo-(Phe-Pro) isolated from a Lactobacillus plantarum strain showed antifungal activity ( Strom et al. 2002 ).”
Bacteriocins from Lactic Acid Bacteria: Production, Purification, and Food Applications (2007, background): “Besides the production of bacteriocins, some LAB are able to synthesize other antimicrobial peptides that may also contribute to food preservation and safety. For instance, strains of Lactobacillus plantarum , isolated from sourdough and grass silage, display antifungal activity, due to the product”
Effects of phenyllactic acid on production performance, egg quality parameters, and blood characteristics in laying hens (2009, background): “Phenyllactic acid has recently been identified in cultures of Lactobacillus plantarum, and it is known to inhibit the growth of a wide variety of fungal strains [7, 8] and pathogenic bacteria, such as several strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli [9].”
