Food contamination by pathogenic and spoilage bacteria causes approximately 47 million cases of foodborne diseases in the United States leads to tons food spoilage, worsening loss situation worldwide. In addition, conventional preservation treatments implemented industry decrease food’s nutritional organoleptic quality. Therefore, there is a need for new alternatives counteract without altering its characteristics. Endolysins are promising strategy due their unique properties, such as host specificity, synergism with other antibacterial agents, mode action, low probability resistance development. These characteristics differentiate them from agents used industry. enzymes produced bacteriophages during process bacterial infection lysis. This review describes advances related endolysin application systems food, considering potential safety an overview conditions according type be controlled. We also highlight studies on encapsulation prolongation action time outbreaks that allow obtaining key information improve endolysins different matrices processing storage
