摘要
Listeria monocytogenes grew to a level of 106 cfu g−1 during the fermentation of unacidified horsebean, pea, chickpea and soybean tempeh. Inoculation of unacidified beans with Lactobacillus plantarum resulted in a complete inhibition of L. monocytogenes in fermenting pea, chickpea and soybean tempeh. In fermenting horsebean tempeh only growth rate retardation was observed. Acidification of the beans during soaking did not show any marked inhibitory effect on the growth of L. monocytogenes. Inoculation of acidified cooked beans with L. plantarum resulted in a complete inhibition of L. monocytogenes in fermenting pea, chickpea and soybean tempeh. Only a decrease in L. monocytogenes growth rate was noted in fermenting horsebean tempeh. The complete or partial inhibition of L. monocytogenes is believed to be due to fall in pH, acid production and formation of other inhibitory substances by L. plantarum. Since growth of L. plantarum does not result in any marked difference in the sensory quality of the product, its use to control undesirable micro-organisms may be considered during commercial tempeh production. © 1991, Academic Press Limited.
