This study examined the effects of food additives on gram-negative bacteria. The food additives used included synthetic antioxidants (butylated hydroxyanisole, BHA, and butylated hydroxytoluene, BHT), a curing agent and lactic acid with or without a cell-free supernatant (CFS) containing antimicrobial compounds of Lactobacillus sakei D-1001. The gram-negative bacteria were selected from dry-fermented sausages and cultured with different food additives for 18 h in nutrient broth, and then another 24 h with or without CFS adjusted (at pH 6.0) to inactivate lactic acid or not adjusted (at pH 4.0). BHA (0.1%) resulted in total viable cell inhibition following 18 h culture. A reduction in cell growth was observed in culture broths with 0.1% lactic acid and synthetic antioxidants at different concentrations. Furthermore, greater susceptibility of gram-negative bacteria could be obtained in 18+24-h cultures with combinations of selected food additives and antimicrobial compounds of Lactobacillus sakei D-1001, in a low pH environment depending on the lactic acid concentration.
