Electrospun plant protein-based nanofibers loaded with sakacin as a promising bacteriocin source for active packaging against Listeria monocytogenes in quail breast.

The main objective of this study was to fabricate nanofibers from zein incorporated with two concentrations of sakacin (9 and 18 AU/mL) with anti-Listeria properties by electrospinning technique. The efficacies of the resulting active nanofibers against L. innocua, in quail breast during 24 days of refrigerated storage (4 ± 1 °C) were evaluated.
