Abstract

Despite its antibacterial and antipathogenic effects, the heat treatment of milk induces undesirable changes that can be noted in the overall properties of ultrahigh temperature (UHT) milk, such as changes in nutritional and organoleptic properties. Our goal is to find new nonthermal antibacterial technologies for the preservation of raw milk (RM). This study investigates the possible synergistic effect of using a combination of the lactoperoxidase system (LS) and 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon essential oil (cinnamon EO) to inactivate the total flora of milk and Salmonella Hadar (S. Hadar). The LS was activated with 30 mg L⁻¹ sodium percarbonate and 14 mg L⁻¹ of sodium thiocyanate. Using this approach, we obtained a synergistic effect with a complete inhibition of the activity of the total flora of the milk and . Hadar after 12 hours at 25°C. In addition, the attainment of synergy was defined when the inhibitory effect of the two compounds together was greater than the effect observed by each compound added alone. Moreover, the monitoring of the synergistic effect at 4°C for 5 days showed complete inhibition of total flora for 3 days and for . Hadar it was up to 5 days. To summarize, the current study clearly identified a new inhibitory combination that may be used in food-based applications.

1. Introduction

Salmonella enterica has been identified as a food-borne pathogen of great importance in recent years. It is a major problem for human health around the world [1, 2]. A study conducted in Tunisia from 1994 to 2004 showed that Salmonella enterica serovar Hadar is a bacteria that is very often present in milk and dairy products [3, 4].

Heat treatment is a very effective technique for the destruction of pathogenic microorganisms, but this technique can cause changes in the nutritional and organoleptic properties of the milk [5, 6]. This is the reason why several efforts have been made to develop novel nonthermal processing technologies [7], such as the use of, for example, lactoperoxidase which is a bioactive peptide naturally occurring in bovine milk naturally in bovine milk [8].

The lactoperoxidase system (LS) is a natural antimicrobial system of milk [9, 10]. The LS consists of three compounds: the enzyme lactoperoxidase, hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), and thiocyanate (SCN⁻) [11, 12]. Its use has been suggested as an antimicrobial agent for the preservation of food for safe human consumption [13–15].

In hot countries, where refrigeration is not possible for the preservation of raw milk, it would be useful to activate the LS in the milk just after milking, allowing its natural preservation until its delivery to the factory [16]. Several studies have shown the effectiveness of this antimicrobial system against several germs, such as Salmonella enterica [17] and Escherichia coli O157:H7 [18].

In Europe, essential oils (EOs), which are natural extracts of plants, are classified as flavourings (European Decision 2002/113/EC of 23 January 2002, notified under document number C (2002) 88). Moreover, the US Food and Drug Administration consider EOs as generally recognised as safe compounds (GRAS).

The cinnamon essential oil (cinnamon EO) is very rich in cinnamaldehyde, which is the major component found in this oil [19]. Several studies have shown that cinnamaldehyde has powerful antioxidant [20], anti-inflammatory [21], anticancer [22, 23] properties and has antibacterial properties against various microorganisms in milk [24, 25]. Recent studies have shown that cinnamon EO inhibits the growth of several bacteria, such as E. coli O157:H7 [26, 27] and Salmonella typhimurium [28]. Another interesting work showed that cinnamaldehyde has an antidepressant activity in animals [29].

Nowadays, the consumer is increasingly interested in finding natural substances in their diet [30]. Despite the high efficacy of essential oils against food-borne pathogens, their use has been limited. Indeed, to have an antimicrobial effect, it is necessary to add high concentrations of essential oils [30, 31]. This can have a negative effect on the organoleptic quality of the food. Only a few approaches have been proposed to reduce the amount of essential oils required and reduce sensory effects [32, 33]. For this reason, combinations with other compounds may be promising alternatives [34]. One solution involves combining plant extracts with a bioactive protein in the milk.

The aim of this work is to study the combined effect of the LS and cinnamon EO, looking for a possible synergism to inhibit the total flora of milk and the pathogenic . Hadar in raw milk.

2. Materials and Methods

2.1. Antimicrobial Substances

Essential oil of cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum from bark; originated in Cylan-Sri Lanka) was obtained from Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) (registry number 84649-98-9) and cinnamaldehyde (a final percentage of 72.08%) was supplied by Esperis (Milan, Italy).

2.2. Bacterial Strain

The bacterial strain used, Salmonella enterica serovar Hadar, was selected at the Pasteur Institute, Tunisia. This is Salmonella Hadar, isolate 63, classified under number 6,8:z10:e,n,x [35].

2.3. Source of Milk

Our supplier of raw milk was the EL BADER Group, Bizerte, Tunisia.

2.4. The Effect of the LS in Combination with Cinnamon EO on Actively Growing Cells of Total Flora of Milk

Into 10 mL of raw milk, we activated the LS and added 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO (the concentration of which, when mixed with the activated LS, resulted in the total inhibition of the total flora of raw milk) at the initial time. The LS was activated with 30 mg L⁻¹ of sodium percarbonate 2Na₂CO₃·3H₂O₂ and 14 mg L⁻¹ of sodium thiocyanate (NaSCN) [16].

The sodium percarbonate is recommended by the codex as it leads to a slower release of hydrogen peroxide. Under these experimental conditions the OSCN⁻ ion is the main antibacterial product [16, 36].

For this experiment, we have prepared four controls. The first control contained only raw milk. In the second control, we activated the LS in raw milk. The third control contained raw milk with 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO. In the fourth control, we added 30 mg L⁻¹ of sodium percarbonate in raw milk. The preparations were monitored at 25°C for 12 hours. All the experiments were repeated three times. Replications were done to determine the total viable number. Luria-Bertani medium (Difco) was used for enumeration of total bacteria in raw milk. During the 12 hours of the experiment the LS remained active [16].

2.5. The Effect of the LS in Combination with Cinnamon EO on Actively Growing Cells of . Hadar in Milk

A volume of 10 mL of raw milk (in the absence of . Hadar) was inoculated with . Hadar to a final concentration of 8 × 10⁵ CFU mL⁻¹ [17, 37]. We activated the LS (as previously described) and added 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO. Four controls were prepared. The first control contained raw milk with . Hadar. The second control contained . Hadar with activators of the LS in raw milk. The third control contained raw milk with . Hadar with cinnamon EO (without activating the LS). The fourth control contained . Hadar with 30 mg L⁻¹ of sodium percarbonate in raw milk. The preparations were monitored at 25°C for 12 hours. All the experiments were repeated three times. Replications were done to determine the amount of . Hadar in raw milk. SS agar (Difco) was used for enumeration of total bacteria in raw milk. All of the flasks prepared above were stored at 4°C for 7 days. Bacteria were counted every day as explained above.

2.6. Statistical Analysis

Data were analysed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), with Tukey’s test (HSD) (STATISTICA version 6.0 for Microsoft Windows). Data were found to be significant at relative to the control milk.

3. Results

3.1. The Effect of the LS in Combination with Cinnamon EO on Actively Growing Cells of Total Flora of Milk

We studied the antibacterial activity of 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO and the LS, both alone and in combination, at 25°C over a period of 12 hours in relation to the total flora of milk. The data reported in Table 1 indicate that, after 12 hours of growth with the LS activated, the total flora in the milk rose from 6.39 log₁₀ to 6.72 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹, compared to 9.37 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹ for the control (). Under the same conditions and in only the presence of cinnamon EO in the milk, the total flora decreased from 6.39 log₁₀ to 6.04 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹. The addition of cinnamon EO induces an insignificant inhibition of 0.35 log₁₀ units () (Table 1). After adding the LS together with cinnamon EO at the start, we observed a complete inhibition of total flora of milk after 12 hours of growth (). The fourth control did not show any relevant antimicrobial activity.

3.2. The Effect of the LS in Combination with Cinnamon EO on Actively Growing Cells of . Hadar

In this work, we studied the antibacterial activity of the LS and 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO, both alone and in combination, against . Hadar at 25°C over a period of 12 hours. In the control milk, S. Hadar increased from 5.9 log₁₀ to 10.05 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹. After activating the LS, the number of . Hadar increased 5.9 log₁₀ to 7.25 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹ (). After adding 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO, counts of . Hadar decreased to 4.94 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹ () (Table 2). After combining the LS together with cinnamon EO, the number of bacteria decreased gradually for 6 hours and then fell rapidly and we observed a complete inhibition of germs after 9 hours of growth (). The fourth control did not show any relevant antimicrobial activity.

3.3. Monitoring the Synergistic Effect at 4°C

According to Figure 1, the LS with 3 μg mL⁻¹ of cinnamon EO added at the initial time showed a synergistic and lasting bactericidal effect which, after 3 days at 4°C, resulted in no detectable cells of total flora and . Hadar in the milk.

After 4 days of growth, we observed the appearance of 4.2 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹ of total flora of milk and 4.6 log₁₀ CFU mL⁻¹ after 5 days of growth. On the other hand, no . Hadar was observed up to the end of the experiment.

4. Discussion

The results of the present work show that the combination of the LS and cinnamon EO significantly reinforced the inhibitory effect against the total flora of milk and . Hadar in raw milk after 12 hours at 25°C. The activation of the LS alone or the addition of cinnamon EO alone does not show a significant decrease in the number of germs. The degree of synergy was defined when the inhibitory effect of the two compounds together was greater than the effect observed by each compound added alone [38]. This study was the first time a possible synergy between the LS and essential oil had been investigated.

Moreover, several studies have examined combinations of different techniques to inhibit food-borne pathogens. The LS has been used in synergy with other nonthermal methods in the preservation of food, such as pulsed electric fields and high hydrostatic pressure [39]. The LS has also been used in combination with bioactive molecules in food, such as nisin, reuterin, and Laminaria [40, 41]. An antimicrobial effect has also been shown with cinnamon EO acting synergistically with other methods, for example, with gamma irradiation [42] or nisin [43].

To obtain a synergistic effect, several antimicrobial modes of action are possible, such as an inhibition of the activity of many enzymes belonging to different metabolic pathways or weakening the bacterial cellular structure [44]. We wanted to understand the mechanism that induced a synergistic inhibitory effect between the LS and cinnamon EO system. Many studies have been devoted to the antimicrobial activity and mechanism of action of the essential oils of plants. Studies have shown that cinnamaldehyde can damage the cytoplasmic membrane due to its action on the proton motive force, by the leakage of small ions without the leakage of ATP [45]. Other studies suggest that the cell membrane is involved in the toxic action of cinnamon EO against Escherichia coli O157:H7 [46]. According to the work of Visvalingam et al. 2013 [26], the antimicrobial effect of cinnamon EO is principally attributable to its carbonyl aldehyde group. Indeed, they showed that different concentrations of cinnamaldehyde caused elongation of Escherichia coli cells and delayed growth [47]. Cinnamaldehyde not only does exhibit toxic effects on cytoplasmic membranes [48], but also inhibits biochemical pathways [49]. The LP is also toxic to the cytoplasmic membrane [50]. Indeed, lactoperoxidase catalyzes the oxidation of thiocyanate by H₂O₂ to hypothiocyanite anion (OSCN⁻) [51, 52], which, in turn, oxidizes the sulphydryl (SH) groups in the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane [9, 53]. The enhanced effect of cinnamon EO and the LS on growing cells of . Hadar and total flora of milk is consistent with previous research. The synergistic effect of LS and cinnamon EO can be explained by their simultaneous effects on the cytoplasmic membrane.

The results obtained from monitoring the synergistic effect at 4°C showed that there was a bactericidal effect against . Hadar. This led us to conclude that the LS and cinnamon EO probably have a synergistic bactericidal effect on . Hadar and a synergistic bacteriostatic behaviour regarding the total flora in milk. Expanding on this, it is known that the LS have bactericidal and bacteriostatic activities regarding a wide range of susceptible microorganisms. This depends on the conditions of the experiment, such as temperature, pH, and incubation time [54, 55]. The effect of the LS can be bactericidal against Gram-negative bacteria, such as salmonellae, or bacteriostatic against Gram-positive bacteria, like lactobacilli.

In fact, this difference may be due to the cytoplasmic membrane of Gram-positive bacteria which seems more resistant to the effect of the LS than Gram-negative species. The LS may also inhibit the growth of some catalase-positive Gram-negative organisms [56].

Despite the fact that LS and cinnamon EO are natural food preservatives, their use remains limited, since their spectrum of antimicrobial activity is not very wide [57]. As we showed in this study, the antibacterial effect of cinnamon EO and the LS can be enhanced if these compounds are combined. In addition, it is a nonthermal technology for the biopreservation of raw milk. Also, it ensures the safety of raw milk from the undesirable changes that can be detected in the organoleptic quality and the nutritional properties of ultrahigh temperature processed (UHT) milk.

5. Conclusion

In this work, we studied the antibacterial effect of the combination of the LS and cinnamon EO at 3 μg mL⁻¹ against total flora of milk and a food-borne pathogen . Hadar. The results showed that a synergistic antimicrobial effect was obtained. Regarding both total flora and . Hadar, we demonstrated complete inhibition of the germs studied for 3 days at 4°C. This work has prompted further studies to develop the use of natural antimicrobials and nonthermal preservation to maintain the good nutritional properties of raw milk, while ensuring the microbiological safety and nutritional properties, to produce milk flavoured with a cinnamon taste.
