ABSTRACT The changes of people consumtion patterns demands a healthier bread product and tends to be organic food without use synthetic food additives that brings various consequences to health. This condition leads to the development of food additives which has effectiveness equivalent to synthetic food additive but safe for health especially if consumed long term. Lactic acid bacteria is a bacteria that hass been widely used in fermented food production process. Making bread using lactic acid bacteria begins with sourdough or acid dough consisting of flour and water fermented with lactic acid bacteria either derived from a particular natural contaminant from flour or from a starter culture containing one or more known lactic acid bacteria. Various product of actic acid bacteria metabolism such as lactic acid, acetic acid, exopollysaccharide and antimicrobial compounds such as bacteriocin make lactic acid bacteria application in baking process have to the potential to improve microbiological quality and bread shelf-life. This research aims to study the effect of lactic acid bacteria addition as a natural preservative in the baking process. The ability of lactic acid bacteria to evolve naturally from fermented flour and water promises the potential for easy sourdough preparation and can be used continuously as  a natural preservative that will save production cost. The parameters to be determined include evaluation of lactic acid bacteria and yeast growth on dough and determination of moisture content as well as total bacteris, mold and E.coli an bread. Key words: bread, lactic acid bacteria, preservatives, shelf-life, food safety ABSTRAK Pergeseran pola konsumsi masyarakat menuntut adanya produk roti yang lebih sehat dan cenderung bersifat organik tanpa penggunaan Bahan Tambahan Makanan (BTM) sintetis yang membawa berbagai konsekuensi terhadap kesehatan. Kondisi ini mengarah pada berkembangnya pencarian BTM yang memiliki efektifitas yang setara dengan BTM sintetis namun aman bagi kesehatan terutama jika dikonsumsi jangka panjang. Bakteri Asam Laktat (BAL) merupakan golongan bakteri yang telah digunakan secara luas dalam proses produksi makanan fermentasi. Pembuatan roti menggunakan BAL diawali dengan sourdough atau adonan asam yang terdiri atas tepung dan air yang difermentasi dengan BAL baik yang berasal dari  kontaminan alami tertentu dari tepung atau dari suatu kultur starter yang mengandung satu atau lebih BAL yang sudah diketahui jenisnya. Berbagai produk hasil metabolisme BAL seperti asam laktat, asam asetat, eksopolisakarida dan senyawa antimikroba seperti bakteriosin menjadikan aplikasi BAL pada proses pembuatan roti berpotensi meningkatkan kualitas mikrobiologis dan daya simpan roti. Penelitian ini secara khusus bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh penambahan BAL sebagai pengawet alami dalam proses pembuatan roti. Kemampuan BAL untuk berkembang secara alami dari tepung dan air yang difermentasi menjanjikan potensi penyediaan sourdough yang mudah dibuat dan dapat digunakan secara kontinyu sebagai pengawet alami sehingga akan menghemat biaya produksi. Parameter yang akan ditentukan meliputi evaluasi pertumbuhan BAL dan yeast pada adonan dan penentuan kadar air serta total bakteri, kapang dan E. coli pada roti.   Kata kunci: roti, bakteri asam laktat, pengawet, daya simpan, keamanan pangan.

Eating fresh fruits and vegetables is, undoubtedly, a healthy habit that should be adopted by everyone (particularly due to the nutrients and functional properties of fruits and vegetables). However, at the same time, due to their production in the external environment, there is an increased risk of their being infected with various pathogenic microorganisms, some of which cause serious foodborne illnesses. In order to preserve and distribute safe, raw, and minimally processed fruits and vegetables, many strategies have been proposed, including bioprotection. The use of lactic acid bacteria in raw and minimally processed fruits and vegetables helps to better maintain their quality by extending their shelf life, causing a significant reduction and inhibition of the action of important foodborne pathogens. The antibacterial effect of lactic acid bacteria is attributed to its ability to produce antimicrobial compounds, including bacteriocins, with strong competitive action against many microorganisms. The use of bacteriocins, both separately and in combination with edible coatings, is considered a very promising approach for microbiological quality, and safety for postharvest storage of raw and minimally processed fruits and vegetables. Therefore, the purpose of the review is to discuss the biopreservation of fresh fruits and vegetables through the use of lactic acid bacteria as a green and safe technique.

AbstractCheeses as ready-to-eat food should be considered as a potential source of foodborne pathogens, primarily Listeria monocytogenes. The aim of present study was to determine the microbiological quality of soft, semi-hard and hard cheeses during the shelf-life, with particular reference to L. monocytogenes. Five types of cheeses were sampled at different time-points during the cold storage and analyzed for presence of Salmonella and L. monocytogenes, as well as lactic acid bacteria, Escherichia coli, coagulase-positive staphylococci, yeasts, molds, sulfite-reducing clostridia and L. monocytogenes counts. Water activity, pH and NaCl content were monitored in order to evaluate the possibility of L. monocytogenes growth. Challenge test for L. monocytogenes was performed in soft whey cheese, to determine the growth potential of pathogen during the shelf-life of product. All analyzed cheeses were compliant with microbiological criteria during the shelf-life. In soft cheeses, lactic acid bacteria increased in the course of the shelf-life period (1.2-2.6 log increase), while in semi-hard and hard cheeses it decreased (1.6 and 5.2 log decrease, respectively). Soft cheeses support the growth of L. monocytogenes according to determined pH values (5.8-6.5), water activity (0.99-0.94), and NaCl content (0.3-1.2%). Challenge test showed that L. monocytogenes growth potential in selected soft cheese was 0.43 log10 cfu/g during 8 days at 4°C. Water activity in semi-hard and hard cheeses was a limiting factor for Listeria growth during the shelf-life. Soft, semi-hard and hard cheeses were microbiologically stable during their defined shelf-life. Good manufacturing and hygienic practices must be strictly followed in the production of soft cheeses as Listeria-supporting food and be focused on preventing (re)contamination.

The effects of cultivation conditions, winter storage, peeling method, browning prevention Chemicals replacing sodium bisulfite, and packing methods on the sensory, nutritional and microbiological quality of pre-peeled potato were examined. Two different cultivation lots of the potato variety Van Gogh were used. Cultivation and harvesting conditions and peeling method were the most important facts reducing the sensory quality, especially the appearance, of prepeeled and sliced potatoes. Cooking and baking of potatoes decreased the appearance defects detected in raw potatoes. The levels of vitamin C in packaged samples decreased during winter storage. Cooking for 10 min and keeping potatoes at 60°C for 1 h after cooking also decreased the content of vitamin C. In potato samples immediately after treatments aerobic bacteria were present at levels of 400 to 2,950 CFU/g and lactic acid bacteria at levels of 8 to 16 CFU/g. The number of aerobic bacteria did not increase during storage, and the number of lactic acid bacteria increased at the most to 90 CFU/g. Peeling, washing and packaging methods, cultivation conditions, and winter storage did not have important effects on the number of microbes present.

Microbiological Parameters

In this study, the microbiological quality of traditionally produced Bez Sucuk in Tokat and its vicinity was investigated. For this purpose, 30 Bez Sucuk samples obtained from butchers, producers of Bez Sucuk, were analyzed for total count of mesophilic aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, yeasts-moulds, total coliform, fecal coliform, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Cl. perfringens. Also, the presence of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp. were investigated in all samples. pH and water activity of the samples were determined. As the result of the analysis, the counts of the microbiological parameters investigated were found as follows: total mesophilic aerobic bacteria 3.5×106-4.23×109 CFU/g, lactic acid bacteria 5.55×105-2.45×109 CFU/g, yeasts and moulds 2.50×103-6.90×109 CFU/g, total coliform
