It was found that glycine, glutamate, lysine, histidine, and arginine increase the rate of Escherichia coli cell lysis by chicken egg lysozyme. The highest cell lysis rates (lysis acceleration by 7.0-8.5 times) are provided by combinations of the following amino acids: 1) arginine, histidine, and lysine, 2) glutamate, histidine, and arginine, 3) glycine, lysine, and arginine (all charged amino acids are applied in concentrations of 5 mM, the concentration of glycine is 1.5 mM). These amino acids added into food products with lysozyme as a preservative can significantly increase antibacterial properties of the latter. This could help increase the shelf life of human food and also serve as a preventive measure against the spread of bacterial infections among farm animals.
