ABSTRACTThe production of cooked ham involves numerous steps shaping the microbial communities of the final product, with consequences on spoilage metabolites production. To identify the main factors driving the ecology of ham and its spoilage, we designed a study encompassing five variables related to ham production: type of storage during meat transportation, churning speed, drain-off time, slicing line and O2 packaging permeability. We obtained about 200 samples from the same facility and we characterized i) their microbiota based on gyrB amplicon sequencing ii) their production of spoilage-related metabolites based on E-Nose analysis and enzymatic assays. The slicing was the most critical step, shaping two general types of microbiota according to the slicing line: one dominated by Carnobacterium divergens and another one dominated by Leuconostoc carnosum and Serratia proteamaculans. Regarding metabolites production, L. carnosum was associated to D-lactic acid, ethanol and acetic acid production, whereas Serratia proteamaculans was associated to acetic acid production. This last species prevailed with highly O2-permeable packaging. Within a given slicing line, we observed campaign-based variations, with Lactobacillus sakei, Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Carnobacterium maltaromaticum prevalent in summer. L. sakei was associated with L-lactic acid production and C. maltaromaticum with formic and acetic acid productions.

The effect of different levels of compression (A1 = 420 gdm-1, A2 = 560 gdm-1) and inoculation (B1 = no inoculant, B2 = with inoculant) on changes in chemical composition, proteolysis and quality of lucerne silage was investigated in this paper. Based on the results of chemical analysis we found that in silages with more compressed material there was a reduction in the amount of ammonia nitrogen, soluble nitrogen and acetic acid, and increased content of protein nitrogen (?true?protein) and production of lactic acid (p<0.05). With the inoculation of the ensiling material the production of ammonia nitrogen and acetic acid was reduced but the content of lactic acid and acidity was increased (p<0.05). The interaction of both investigated factors (A?B) induced a decrease in the proteolysis degree, increase of lactic acid production and decrease in acetic acid production, and decrease in pH values (p<0.001) in investigated silages. The investigated factors had less influence on the chemical composition of lucerne material, and the significant variations were observed in fat and NFE contents. On the basis of this investigation the degree of compression is the most important parameter in ensiling technology. With the adequate compression and reduction of air in the starting material, the aerobic phase is reduced and the activity of proeolytic enzymes is decreased. In practice the special attention should be given to factors on which directly or indirectly the level of compression of ensiled material depends: wilting, cutting, object selection and/or selection of machines used for compression.

The succession of the dominant microbial population during cacao fermentation with or without adjunct inoculation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were monitored on a laboratory scale using culture-dependent and culture-independent methods. Yeasts and acetic acid bacteria (AAB) population throughout a five-day fermentation process showed no significant differences but the LAB population increased through adjunct inoculation. Polymerase Chain Reaction-Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) identification method showed the dominance of only Lactobacillus plantarum, one of the species used as the adjunct inoculum, which resulted in higher lactic acid production. On the other hand, Acetobacter spp. and Gluconobacter spp. were markedly observed in the spontaneously fermented set-up resulting in increased acetic acid production, significantly different (p>0.05) at three to five days of fermentation. LAB and yeast inoculation resulted in a more desirable temperature and pH of the fermenting mash which may result in better product quality.

Acetic acid bacteria are involved in many food and beverage fermentation processes. They play an important role in cocoa bean fermentation through their acetic acid production. They initiate the development of some of the flavor precursors that are necessary for the organoleptic quality of cocoa, and for the beans’ color. The development of starter cultures with local strains would enable the preservation of the microbial biodiversity of each country in cocoa-producing areas, and would also control the fermentation. This approach could avoid the standardization of cocoa bean fermentation in the producing countries. One hundred and thirty acetic acid bacteria were isolated from three different cocoa-producing countries, and were identified based on their 16S rRNA gene sequence. The predominate strains were grown in a cocoa pulp simulation medium (CPSM-AAB) in order to compare their physiological traits regarding their specific growth rate, ethanol and lactic acid consumption, acetic acid production, and relative preferences of carbon sources. Finally, the intraspecific diversity of the strains was then assessed through the analysis of their genomic polymorphism by (GTG)5-PCR fingerprinting. Our results showed that Acetobacter pasteurianus was the most recovered species in all of the origins, with 86 isolates out of 130 cultures. A great similarity was observed between the strains according to their physiological characterization and genomic polymorphisms. However, the multi-parametric clustering results in the different groups highlighted some differences in their basic metabolism, such as their efficiency in converting carbon substrates to acetate, and their relative affinity to lactic acid and ethanol. The A. pasteurianus strains showed different behaviors regarding their ability to oxidize ethanol and lactic acid into acetic acid, and in their relative preference for each substrate. The impact of these behaviors on the cocoa quality should be investigated, and should be considered as a criterion for the selection of acetic acid bacteria starters.

Lactic acid is mainly used to produce bio-based, bio-degradable polylactic acid. For industrial production of lactic acid, engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be used. To avoid cellular toxicity caused by lactic acid accumulation, pH-neutralizing agents are used, leading to increased production costs. In this study, lactic acid-producing S. cerevisiae BK01 was developed with improved lactic acid tolerance through adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) on 8% lactic acid. The genetic basis of BK01 could not be determined, suggesting complex mechanisms associated with lactic acid tolerance. However, BK01 had distinctive metabolomic traits clearly separated from the parental strain, and lactic acid production was improved by 17% (from 102 g/L to 119 g/L). To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest lactic acid titer produced by engineered S. cerevisiae without the use of pH neutralizers. Moreover, cellulosic lactic acid production by BK01 was demonstrated using acetate-rich buckwheat husk hydrolysates. Particularly, BK01 revealed improved tolerance against acetic acid of the hydrolysates, a major fermentation inhibitor of lignocellulosic biomass. In short, ALE with a high concentration of lactic acid improved lactic acid production as well as acetic acid tolerance of BK01, suggesting a potential for economically viable cellulosic lactic acid production.

Lachancea Thermotolerans

To improve the quality of fermented drinks, or more specifically, wine, some strains of yeast have been isolated, tested and studied, such as Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces. Some non-conventional yeasts present good fermentative capacities and are able to ferment in quite undesirable conditions, such as the case of must, or wines that have a high concentration of acetic acid. One of those yeasts is Lachancea thermotolerants (L. thermotolerans), which has been studied for its use in wine due to its ability to decrease pH through L-lactic acid production, giving the wines a pleasant acidity. This review focuses on the recent discovery of an interesting feature of L. thermotolerans—namely, its ability to decrease wines’ volatile acidity.

AbstractIn this research article, the effects of bee pollen and royal jelly on the selected probiotic bacteria, as growth factors, were investigated. The probiotic cultures were activated in MRS broth at 37°C. Then, bee pollen and royal jelly (10 mg/100 μL, 25 mg/250 μL, 50 mg/500 μL, 75 mg/750 μL, and 100 mg/1000 μL) were added on the probiotic cultures in MRS broth and sampled at 0, 24, and 48 hours of incubation. The medias used for enumeration of the probiotic cultures were RCA (Reinforced Clostridial Agar) forBf. animalisspp.lactis, MRS (deMann, Rogosa and Sharpe) Agar with D-sorbitol forLb. acidophilusand MRS-Vancomycine Agar forLb. casei. The lactic acid production byLb. acidophilus,Lb. casei, andBf. animalisspp.lactis, and acetic acid production byBf. animalisspp. lactis, were determined to compare the bacterial proliferation. The probiotic cultures were mainly affected by the bee pollen and royal jelly during the first 24 hours. The changes observed in the number of probiotic counts between 24 and 48 hours were not significant, statistically (P<0.05). Generally, the probiotic bacterial counts increased parallel to the concentration of bee pollen or royal jelly up to 75mg, and remained unchanged above this concentration. In terms of lactic acid production and bacterial growth, the most significant growth was observed onLb. acidophiluswhen bee pollen or royal jelly was added.
