摘要：The antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria is closely related to its metabolites. Our results showed that Lactobacillus plantarum DY‐6 had the highest antibacterial activities among the seven bacteria tested in this study. To fully understand the active antimicrobial substances in L. plantarum DY‐6, the cell‐free supernatant (CFS) were analyzed. Our data indicated that the antibacterial effect of the CFS was positively correlated with the growth of the bacteria, and the main antibacterial substances were lactic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, caprylic acid, and decyl acid. Finally, this study demonstrated that the antibacterial active substance produced by the lactic acid bacteria could destroy the cell membrane structure of the bacteria, causing bacteria to fail to grow and reproduce normally, thereby exerting a bacteriostatic action. Taken together, our current findings would provide an effective method for rapid screening of antimicrobial substances.
