ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a composition of matter comprising a defined dispersion of lactoferria immobilized on a naturally occuring substrate via the N-terminus region of the lactoferrin. Compositions comprising immobilized lactoferrin (Im-LF) are used in a method for reducing the microbial contamination of a composition subject to microbial contamination, which is also disclosed, and which encompasses a method for reducing the microbial contamination of a foodstuff, such as a meat product. Foodstuffs treated by the method are disclosed, including meat products. A method of inhibiting the growth and/or adhesion of a microbial species on a food-contacting surface f a material for food packaging or food handling with Im-LF is also disclosed. Food containers and food-handling implements so treated are also disclosed, as are antimicrobial cleansers, polishes, paints, sprays, soaps, or detergents containing Im-LF for applying to an inanimate surface.
