The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of isolated lactic acid bacteria from intestines of narrow-barred Spanish mackerel (<em>Scomberomorus commerson</em>) on <em>Listeria innocua</em> growth. Five strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated. <em>Lactobacillus buchneri, Lactococcus lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus fermentum </em>and <em>Sterptococcus salivarius </em>strains were presumptively identified by biochemical and physiological tests. Anti-listerial activities of these isolates and their cell free supernatants (CFS) were evaluated using agar spot tests, agar well diffusion assays and BHI broth. The results revealed that all cultures and their cell free supernatants were able to inhibit <em>L. innocua</em> growth. Furthermore, the study showed that wastes of this kind of warm water sea fish, have antagonistic activities against <em>L. innocua</em> and can be potentially used as a free source of LAB. https://iar.shirazu.ac.ir/article_2380_d89feb657b7435f9ce2eec793c60cfdc.pdf
