A simple and no-drug resistance antibacterial method was developed by the synthesis of heat-stable and pH-tolerant nisin-loaded iron oxide nanoparticles polydopamine (IONPs@pDA) composites. The composites had a crystal structure and diameters of 25 +/- 3 nm, with a saturation magnetization (M-s) of 43.7995 emu g(-1). Nisin was successfully conjugated onto the IONPs@pDA nanoparticles, as evinced by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses. The novel synthesized material showed good performance in reducing Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris, a common food spoilage bacterium that represents a significant problem for the food industry. Treatment of A. acidoterrestris cells with composites resulted in membrane damage, as observed by live/dead staining and scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy analyses. Further, the composites exhibited highly efficient antibacterial activity against cells in only 5 min. Transcriptomic sequencing of culture RNA pools after exposure to composites resulted in a total of 334 differentially expressed genes that were primarily associated with transcriptional regulation, energy metabolism, membrane transporters, membrane and cell wall syntheses, and cell motility. Thus, these results suggested that changes in transcriptional regulation caused by aggregated composites on target cells led to major changes in homeostasis that manifested by decreased energy metabolism, pore formation in the membrane, and repressed cell wall synthesis. Concomitantly, cell motility and sporulation activities were both repressed, and finally, intracellular substances flowed out of leaky cells. The proposed biocontrol method represents a novel means to control microorganisms without inducing drug resistance. Further, these results provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the antibacterial activity of composites against microorganisms.
