Four bacteriocins of L. fermenti, 3 bacteriocins of L. brevis and 1 bacteriocin of L. buchneri were studied with respect to morphology of the inhibition growth zones of the indicator strains, capacity for diffusion through cellophane, sensitivity to high temperature, bacterial proteases, trypsin, chymotrypsin, pepsin, papain, nucleases and lysozyme. According to the differences in their properties the bacteriocins were classified as belonging to 8 types, including 4 types of L. fermenti bacteriocins and 3 types of L. brevis bacteriocins.
