''P. damnosus'' can produce high amounts of diacetyl during lactic acid production <ref>[http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1365-2672.2000.00956.x/pdf Identification of pediococci by ribotyping.

''P. damnosus'' also produces an antimicrobial compound called pediocin PD-1, which can inhibit several bacteria spp including ''O. oeni'' <ref>[http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1365-2672.2001.01486.x/full Growth optimization of Pediococcus damnosus NCFB 1832 and the influence of pH and nutrients on the production of pediocin PD-1.
