4Protection cultures - Fish

Live cultures for natural protection of fish and fish products

4Protection is a Sacco line of cultures to protect products from the development of unwanted microorganisms. 4Protection cultures are composed of 100% natural lactic acid bacteria that help producers to create a safe product with good structural properties throughout its shelf life.

Sacco System has developed specific lines of live cultures for the natural protection of fish and fish products. Actions such as smoking, salting and drying are not sufficient to guarantee elimination of the Listeria monocytogenes bacteria from fish products.

Sacco 4Protection bacteria have been specially developed to offer Listeria protection for raw fish (smoked salmon and processed products), packaged fish sold refrigerated (fillets of bass, trout, rainbow trout, etc.) freshwater and salt-water fish sold fresh, and many other types of fish products.
