The antibacterial activity of the lactoperoxidase (LP) system on the growth and survival of a naladixic acid resistant strain of Salmonella typhimurium on poultry was determined. The LP system treatment, which consisted of lactoperoxidase (1 microgram/ml), potassium thiocyanate (5.9 mM), and hydrogen peroxide (2.5 mM) (final concentrations) in water, reduced the level of Salmonella on inoculated chicken legs. The magnitude of reduction was dependent on temperature and time. For a water temperature of 25C and a time of 30 min, a 13.2% reduction was seen, as compared to a water temperature of 60C and a time of 15 min which showed a 80.6% reduction. In a 48 h shelf-life study, the LP system controlled growth of psychrotrophic bacteria on chicken legs. Hunterlab color values (L, a, b) for chicken thigh skin and oxidative deterioration as measured by TBA values for chicken thigh meat did not significantly differ (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively) between control and treated thighs.
