D. BARANOWSKI AND C. W. NAGEL* Department of Food Science and Technology, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington Received 7 June 1982/Accepted 13 September 1982 Alkyl esters of six hydroxycinnamic acids, shown to be active antimicrobial agents when tested against Pseudomonas fluorescens, were further investigated for their effects against this organism. There was no statistically significant adaptation by this organism to either of the methyl esters of caffeic, p-coumaric, cinnamic, or p-hydroxybenzoic acids. Mixtures of these compounds taken two at a time gave at least additive effects, with some mixtures showing synergism. Preliminary work was also performed to determine the mode of inhibitory action for these compounds. The inhibition of oxygen utilization by the methyl esters correlated well with growth inhibition. Short-term lethality studies showed that none of the alkyl esters or methyl or propyl paraben produced any bacteriocidal effects. Oil-water partition coefficients were determined for these compounds and were shown to have no correlation with growth inhibitions. These all point to a specific mode of action, based in part on cellular energy depletion, rather than the nonspecific membrane-disrupting effects of other phenolic antimicrobial agents. Phenolic antimicrobial agents, including benzoic acid and the parabens, have had a long history in food usage. Closely related to benzoic acid are the naturally occurring cinnamic acid derivatives. Although generally recognized for their antimicrobial activities, very little work has been done on their range of activity or on their mode of action. Depending on the test system used, certain of the hydroxycinnamic acids show considerable antimicrobial activity. Caffeic acid has been found to be active against potato fungii (23), ferulic and p-coumaric acids are known to be active against Saccharomyces cerevisiae (3), and chlorogenic acid (3-caffeoyl quinate) has been found to be active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (14). Conversely, other researchers using the same compounds have reported finding no antifungal or antibacterial activity (1, 18). These variable results are probably due to the differences in experimental procedures. It can be concluded that under certain conditions these cinnamic acid derivatives do possess a range of antimicrobial activities. One reason for the discrepancies noted above is the differences in ph of the media employed. The hydroxycinnamates are ionizable compounds, and their activity will likely vary with ph, as does benzoic acid (7). An obvious way to t Scientific paper no. 625 of the College of Agriculture Research Center, Washington State University, Pullman, WA negate these effects is through the synthesis of non-ionizable derivatives, the simplest being the alkyl esters. Certain of these alkyl esters do exist naturally, although their concentrations are usually low (4, 15, 2). Ethyl p-methoxycinnamate has been isolated from a tumeric-type plant and has been shown to inhibit a wide range of fungi at 1 to 5 ppm (,xg/ml) (15). Baranowski and Nagel (J. Food Sci., in press) synthesized the methyl esters of six hydroxycinnamic acids as well as the propyl and ethyl esters of caffeic acid for antimicrobial screening. They found that the caffeoate esters, methyl p-coumarate, and methyl ferulate possessed antibacterial activity toward Pseudomonasfluorescens, a gramnegative bacterium associated with refrigerated meat spoilage. The most active of these derivatives was, in fact, found to be more inhibitory than either methyl or propyl paraben on a weight basis. These authors have suggested the use of these alkyl hydroxycinnamates (to which they have given the acronym alkacins) in food products. This paper attempts to identify the mode of activity of the alkacins against P. fluorescens as well as some of the general properties of these compounds which may influence their effectiveness as antimicrobial agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS A culture of P. fluorescens ATCC was obtained from the culture collection of the Department of Food Science and Technology, Washington State Uni- 218

The additive or synergistic effect of the combination of two alkacins at 125 ppm each was also investigated.

Correlation of growth inhibition with inhibition of respiration. in TSB, mortality was also studied in this medium Ṫhe inhibition of oxygen usage correlated well with the inhibition of growth (Baranowski and Nagel, in press) (Fig. 1). This is consistent with a physiological action based on the depletion of ATP, rather than through a genetic inhibition of some type (12). Again, as shown with plate counts, no mortality was observed under the oxygen analysis conditions. Also, no correlation of the soy oil-phosphate buffer (ph 7.) system to the growth inhibition (r =.8) at 25 ppm was found. These results point to a specific action of the inhibitors, rather than the nonspecific membrane action of various other phenolic antimicrobial agents such as BHA and phenol (9, 17, 21). The parabens are known to inhibit both membrane transport of amino acids and electron transport (11, 12). The data herein are consistent with those results. Table 1 presents the results of the adaptation studies. Although there was a decrease in the effectiveness of methyl caffeoate and methyl p- coumarate after growth of the organism on all of the inhibitors, these results demonstrate a trend and were not found to be significantly different 2. APPL. ENVIRON. MICROBIOL. from the inhibitions found without the pregrowth treatments. The only statistically determined decrease in activity was shown by methyl paraben after pregrowth in methyl cinnamate (P =.5). The lack of adaptation by a microorganism to an inhibitor is an obvious necessity for its use in a food product and has been previously noted for the parabens (19). P. fluorescens was able to adapt to BHA through a similar pregrowth treatment, and did become somewhat resistant to its effects (9). Quite commonly, mixtures of antimicrobial compounds are used in a product so as to circumvent such problems as solubility or taste of any individual compound. This practice is common for the parabens where a 2:1 or 3:1 mixture of the methyl and propyl ester is used. This allows an additive effect of the antimicrobial activities and avoids off tastes brought about by a high concentration of any one paraben (taste effects for these compounds are not additive [6]). The action of mixtures of compounds is commonly additive, as with the parabens, although occasionally synergistic actions are found. Mixtures of BHA and sorbic acid tested against both P. fluorescens and Pseudomonas fragi were found to have additive results (9). The effects of a mixture of two alkacins, each at 125 ppm against P. fluorescens (Table 2), are seen to be at least an additive effect. If both were active in the same manner, it would seem reasonable that the activity of a mixture would be compared with the average activity of the two compounds at twice the concentration used in the study. Conversely, if they acted in a different manner, the activity of the mixture should be the additive activities of the two compounds at the concentration tested. With either comparison method, all mixtures gave at least additive results, and certain of these compounds were found to have a slightly synergistic activity. Although this is a favorable property, only one mixture, methyl p-coumarate-methyl caffeoate, had an activity greater than methyl caffeoate (the most active methyl ester) at 25 ppm alone (RE = 2.84; Baranowski and Nagel, in press), and this difference was not significant. These additive and synergistic effects would become important with respect to flavor if these alkacins were to be used in food products. TABLE 1.

BHA has been shown to be an active antimicrobial agent in model systems against a wide range of bacteria and fungi (5, 9, 1, 16). Problems arise, though, when this additive is used in a food product for this purpose, presumedly due to its very large oil-water partition coefficient. This causes the majority of the compound to partition into the lipid phase of the product, effectively removing it from any antimicrobial capabilities. The active alkacins (the methyl esters of caffeic, p-coumaric, and ferulic acids and ethyl and propyl caffeoate; Baranowski and TABLE 3.

Nagel, in press) have oil-water partition coefficients ranging from 1.33 to (Table 3), much less than the 4.37 of BHA or 3.43 of propyl paraben. In fact, methyl caffeoate has a significantly smaller partition coefficient (1.33) than methyl paraben (3.43), pointing to the compatability of the alkacins for their use in food systems. Overall, based on their effects on P. fluorescens, certain alkacins show promise for further antimicrobial use based on (i) their non-selfadaptive nature, (ii) their favorable oil-buffer partition coefficients (which are comparable to methyl and propyl paraben), and (iii) their additive or possibly synergistic antimicrobial effects. Further research is under way in the testing of these compounds against other microorganisms in broth cultures and in food systems. LITERATURE CITED 1. Alberghina, A., A. Benni, and M. G.
