'''''Lactococcus piscium''''' is a known fish pathogen affecting salmonid fish, which has nevertheless been found in other sources, such as packaged beef.<ref name="Williams1990">{{cite journal|last1=Williams|first1=A|year=1990|title=''Lactococcus piscium'' sp. nov. a new ''Lactococcus'' species from salmonid fish|journal=FEMS Microbiology Letters|volume=68|issue=1–2|pages=109–113|doi=10.1016/0378-1097(90)90134-C|pmid=1692000|issn=0378-1097|doi-access=free}}</ref><ref name="pmid11849342">{{cite journal|year=2002|title=Isolation and characterization of ''Lactococcus piscium'' strains from vacuum-packaged refrigerated beef|journal=Journal of Applied Microbiology|volume=92|issue=1|pages=173–9|doi=10.1046/j.1365-2672.2002.01513.x|pmid=11849342|doi-access=|last1=Sakala|first1=R.

L. piscium has shown promise as a bioprotective culture in the preservation of seafood. The bacterium has exhibited the ability to prevent sensory deterioration of food and inhibit the growth of other psychrophilic bacteria that may produce spoilage.<ref>{{cite journal|year=2012|title=Sensory and Physicochemical Evolution of Tropical Cooked Peeled Shrimp Inoculated by Brochothrix Thermosphacta and Lactococcus Piscium CNCM I-4031 during Storage at 8 °C|journal=International Journal of Food Microbiology|volume=152|issue=3|pages=82–90|doi=10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2011.07.015 |pmid=21835482|doi-access=free|last1=Fall|first1=P.|last2=Pilet|first2=M.|last3=Leduc|first3=F.|last4=Cardinal|first4=M.|last5=Duflos|first5=G.|last6=Guerin|first6=C.|last7=Joffraud|first7=J.|last8=Leroi|first8=F.}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|year=2016|title=Inhibition mechanism of Listeria monocytogenes by a bioprotective bacteria Lactococcus piscium CNCM I-4031|journal=International Journal of Food Microbiology|volume=53|issue=Pt A|pages=70–78|doi=10.1016/j.fm.2015.01.002 |pmid=26611171|doi-access=free|last1=Saraoui|first1=T.|last2=Fall|first2=P.|last3=Leroi|first3=F.|last4=Antignac|first4=J.|last5=Chereau|first5=S.|last6=Pilet|first6=M.}}</ref>
