Removal of Microbial Biofilms from Dispense Equipment:
The Effect of Enzymatic Pre-digestion and Detergent Treatment
Samantha L. Walker, Michail Fourgialakis, Belen Cerezo and Stephen Livens
Abstract:
J. Inst. Brew. 113(1), 61–66, 2007
Microbial biofilms can form in dispense outlets as a result of
poor or inadequate cleaning and can be difficult to remove using
conventional practices. Enzymatic cleaners might help to remove
biofilms by degrading the exopolysaccharide layers in
which the microbes are embedded. A multispecies biofilm comprising
wild type dispense isolates of Flavimonas oryzihabitans,
Lactobacillus brevis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Saccharomyces
cerevisiae was generated on a section of tubing and fitted
into a pilot dispense system, which was left uncleaned for 12
weeks. After cleaning approximately 104 viable aerobes and 103
viable anaerobes were still present. Stainless steel coupons and
pieces of dispense line contaminated with biofilm were incubated
in the laboratory with an enzyme mix containing varying
proportions of -amylase, -glucuronidase, glucose oxidase,
dextranase, protease and pectinase. Cultures grown on stainless
steel had significantly (F pr. < 0.05) less viable cells than nonenzyme
treated biofilms, but this was dependent on the microbial
species. Typically Lactobacillus brevis was most susceptible
to the enzyme treatment. Cultures grown on dispense line were
much more resistant to enzymatic digestion. Pre-digestion with
protease was most effective for removal of Lactobacillus brevis
and Leuconostoc mesenteroides but not for Saccharomyces cerevisiae
and Flavimonas oryzihabitans. In the simulated bar, predigestion
with protease reduced the viable cell count by 0.64 log
units for the aerobes and 1.9 log units for the anaerobes. This
study demonstrates that pre-digestion with enzyme solutions
before line cleaning is useful for treating heavily contaminated
lines in trade.
Key words: Biofilm, cleaning, dispense line, enzyme, exopolysaccharide
(EPS), line cleaner, stainless steel.
