Cross-cultural comparison of sensory profiles and consumer liking or various tea products with different degree of fermentation. 9. Pangborn sensory science symposium
A new member of the fusaricidin family – structure elucidation and synthesis of fusaricidin E
2017
Two hitherto unknown fusaricidins were obtained from fermentation broths of three Paenibacillus strains. After structure elucidation based on tandem mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, fusaricidin E was synthesized to confirm the structure and the suggested stereochemistry. The synthesis was based on a new strategy which includes an efficient access to the 15-guanidino-3-hydroxypentadecanoyl (GHPD) side chain from erucamide.
Functional and Nutritious Beverages Produced by Lactic Acid Bacteria
2019
Abstract Currently, in the developed countries, there is a concern about leading a healthy lifestyle including eating “organic” and “functional” food. Moreover, in recent years, the percentage of the population with food allergies or intolerances has increased. Within this framework, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which are able to ferment a variety of foodstuffs and also colonize the human digestive tract, can play a beneficial role. Many LAB strains have the generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status and are therefore being used in the food industry, especially to produce different types of fermented beverages, because they confer “functionality” to drinks due to the production of bioactive …
Lactic Acid Bacteria in Spanish Red Rose and White Musts and Wines under Cellar Conditions
1992
The dynamics of the lactic acid bacterial (LAB) population in different cellars, fermentation conditions and musts were analyzed. The number of LAB in fresh musts diminished quickly in the first few days, but an increase of these bacteria occurred during the later stages of the alcoholic fermentation. The species found in fresh musts were Lactobacillus plantarum, L. hilgardii, L. brevis, L. confusus, and Leuc. onostoc paramesenteroides. At the end of fermentation only L. hilgardii, Leuc. oenos and L. fructivorans were isolated. The API 50 CHL system was not useful to identify strains of Leuc. oenos species. All the isolated strains degraded malic acid in synthetic medium but only two strain…
Optimising Lactic Acid Cheese Packaging Systems
2016
On the basis of a previous research, it seems that foil-wrapped tray solutions are not particularly chosen by lactic acid cheese consumers. With relation to this study, almost half of the respondent population would have expressed the desire of different packages. Parchment packages and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate)/polyvinylidene chloride/poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) laminates would be removed by 25.0 and 12.5% of customers, respectively. Polyamide/polyethylene double and single packaging would be removed from the market only by 5.0% of respondents. Data have shown that cheese and packaging quality are dependent on lactic acid cheese surface microflora. The type of this microflora is …
Cultivation ofZymomonas mobilis 113 S at Different Mixing Regimes and their Influence on the Levan Formation
2001
The Zymomonas mobilis I 13 S strain was cultivated in a bioreactor with a working volume of 1.4 I at different stirring regimes in a 15% initial sucrose medium The levan obtained in the fermentation process was analyzed by gel filtration. Because the sucrose/biomass ratio in the fermentation broth decreased to below 300 g/g, the insufficient concentration of sucrose might have decreased the concentration of levan. Besides the growth characteristics of the population, the mixing intensity and flow structure were also found to influence the molecular mass of levan. At 600 rpm, the microorganisms produced levan with a molecular mass lower than at 300 rpm. The stirring of a fermentation broth w…
Solvent production from rice straw by a co-culture of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae: effect of pH control
2022
One of the challenges in biofuel production from lignocellulosic wastes is to improve its conversion to solvents; therefore, new strategies to enhance xylose uptake are required due to be the secondary abundant sugar. In this context, a novel fermentation strategy integrating a co-culture of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with pH control was developed. Initially, two different buffers, ammonium acetate and calcium carbonate, were tested under pHmin > 4.8 by fermenting 60 g L−1 of glucose with the C. acetobutylicum monoculture. Ammonium acetate was selected for fermenting media as butanol production was increased from 9.8 to 10.9 g L−1 over the calcium carbonate test…
Der Stoffwechsel verschiedener Carbons�uren durch Milchs�urebakterien
1984
The anaerobic metabolism of citrate, fumarate, gluconate, malate, 2-oxoglutarate and pyruvate by 137 strains of 23 species of lactic acid bacteria was investigated. The bacteria were from various sources (plant material, meat and dairy products, dough and wine) and belonged to the genera Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus, and Streptococcus. The ability of metabolize the acids was determined by thin layer chromatography or by enzymatic analysis after growth of the strains in a glucose-containing medium. All strains metabolized pyruvate and only 12 mainly heterofermentative strains were malate negative. These strains were also unable to decompose citrate. This acid was fermented by 23 s…
Application of bacteriocins in vegetable food biopreservation.
2007
Bacteriocins are generally recognized as "natural" compounds able to influence the safety and quality of foods. In the past years, a lot of works have been aimed to the detection, purification and characterisation of bacteriocins, as well as to their use in food preservation strategies. A list of review articles dealing with the application of bacteriocins to the protection of foods of animal origin is also available in literature, but it lacks for a summary on the utilization of bacteriocins in vegetable foods. These biopreservatives can be used in a number of ways in food systems and this paper mainly focuses on the state-of-the-art application of bacteriocins from lactic acid bacteria (L…
Induction of new metabolites from sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus carneus by OSMAC approach.
2018
Abstract A comparative study on the metabolic profile of the sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus carneus using the OSMAC approach was conducted. The fungal strain was fermented on three different media including solid rice medium with or without sea salt and modified Czapek medium. Three new natural products, isopropylchaetominine (1), isoterrelumamide A (2) and 5′-epi-averufanin (3), together with fourteen known compounds (4–17) were isolated. The structures of the new compounds were established by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis as well as by HRESIMS. Compound 2 was only found when the fungus was cultivated on modified Czapek medium, whereas compounds 4, 7, 11, 12, and 14 were only …
