“…The proteases used in the evaluations are commonly employed in the characterisation of these peptides because they have a broad specificity of action. Some bacteriocins have complete inhibition of biological activity after treatment with such enzymes (Dey, Rai, Das, Mandal, & Mandal, 2019;Padilla, Carrasco-Sánchez, Padilla, & Lobos, 2019;Zhu, Zhao, Sun, & Gu, 2014). However, it has been shown that bacteriocins have different levels of sensitivity to enzymatic treatments because of their composition and structure (Ge, Sun, Xin, Wang, & Ping, 2016).…”
