Abstract

Due to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, some infectious diseases are difficult to treat and are getting worse. In recent years, the development of new and effective antibiotics is slow. However, the alternative antibiotics bacteria are concerned in recent years, which have a great potential to inhibit antibiotic-resistant pathogens by bacteriocins. Bacteriocins are small antimicrobial peptides (AMPS) which are produced by many bacteria, they not only can inhibit effectively pathogen growth, but also can play an important role in health care as probiotics. At the same time, bacteriocins have been commonly used as a preservative in food production. With the focus on health and safety of livestock products as well as popularization and application of probiotics in diet increasing, bacteriocins will be widely used in animal production. This review summarizes the concept, classification, mechanism of bacteriocins, and discusses present research progress about the application of bacteriocins in animal production.
