Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are able to produce a number of metabolites with antimicrobial ability. Bacteriocines are a group of biological compounds produced by these microorganisms that may be applied to extend food shelf-life. These peptides are active against Gram positive bacteria, their inhibition spectra includes several toxic and infectious...

Toxic, recalcitrant and xenobiotic compounds are highly increased in the environment, reason there are many studies about degradation processes of these compounds. One of such xenobiotic important as a model, is pentachlorophenol (PCP), produced during manufactured process of paper. There are physical and chemical methods to degrade the toxic, but...
