Process for producing by culturing Lactobacillus casei var. rhamnosus yeast and mold inhibiting products

摘要

A method for producing a novel yeast and mold inhibiting products (FIC) from a Lactobacillus, particularly a Lactobacillus casei having the yeast and mold producing characteristics of Lactobacillus casei var. rhamnosus NRRL-B-15972 is described. The products (FIC) are particularly useful in retarding yeast and mold growth in foods and other materials in need thereof.
