Species disparity response to mutagenesis of marine yeasts for the potential production of biodiesel.
Abstract Background Among the third-generation biodiesel feed stock, oleaginous marine yeasts are the least studied microorganisms for such purpose. Results Wild strains yeasts were isolated from various Tunisian marine sources including fish waste (Candida tenuis CtTun15, Debaryomyces hansenii DhTun2015, Trichosporon asahii TaTun15 and Yarrowia lipolytica YlTun15) and seawater (Rhodotorula mucilaginosa RmTun15). Following incubation with ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS: 75 mM) for various periods of time (T15, T30, T45, T60 min), the cell viability of these strains responded differentially according to yeast species. For instance, mutated CtTun15 did not survive after 30 min of EMS treatment; …
Evaluation of the qualitative properties and consumer perception of marinated sardine Sardina pilchardus: The effect of fucoxanthin addition
With the increasing consumer awareness and demand for healthy food and natural ingredients; there is an urgent need to develop and propose innovative products to industry. In this study, the combined effect of various time of pre-incubation (30, 60 and 90 min) in vinegar and the addition of fucoxanthin (Fux) extracted from the brown alga Dictyopteris polypodiodes to the covering oil of sardine fillets was investigated during 3 months of refrigerated storage at 4◦C. Compared to fresh sardines, biogenic amines (Bas) decreased significantly in all marinated lots (histamine <0.07 mg/100 g, cadaverine <0.0 mg/100 g) and remained far below the regulatory limit up to the end of storage indic…
