The article describes fermentation process of the Baikal omul with the bacterial concentrate containing Lactobacillus sakei LSK-104. pH and microbiological analyses were used as indicators of biochemical activity of lactic acid bacteria. As found, during fermentation of omul, pH of the muscle tissue in the experimental sample decreased faster and reached 5.05 at 14 days of fermentation, while in the control sample the pH value was 6.28. It can be explained by the formation of organic acids during the fermentation with lactic acid bacteria L. sakei LSK-104. In this case, the number of viable cells reacheed a maximum value of 1011 CFU/g. The lactic acid fermentation process in brine proceeded more intensively than in the muscle tissue. The data obtained in this study expand our understanding of the adaptive mechanisms that ensure survival of L. sakei LSK-104 under unfavorable cultivation conditions

Yoghurt is a pro-biotic beverage produced from the fermentation process of milk, namely from vegetable milk (soy milk) or animal milk (goat's milk and cow's milk). During the fermentation process, the chemical reactions that occur will turn milk into yogurt with the help of lactic acid bacteria. In the health sector, yogurt plays a role in increasing the body's immunity, digestive tract health and can prevent osteoporosis. In general, yogurt circulating in the community still has low nutritional content, so a more in-depth study needs to be done. The goal of this research is to examine the quality of yogurt by manipulating certain variables and adding other components to increase the yogurt's quality. Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus were used as starter as much as 12.5 mL each (10% of 500 mL of cream milk). The fixed variables in this study were the volume of goat's milk 500 ml, cream concentration 6%, pasteurization temperature 85°C, pasteurization time 15 minutes and fermentation temperature 45°C, while the independent variables were varying the length of the fermentation process for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 hours. From this study, it was concluded that yogurt with optimum results was obtained at a fermentation time of 6 hours, the pH value was 3.8, lactic acid content was 1.305%, protein content was 5.54%, fat content was 4.98%, and moisture content was 84.10%.

Abstract To investigate the bitterness status of asparagus juices during lactic acid fermentation, Limosilactobacillus fermentum Xd, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Yd, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 5-7-3 and their various combinations were used for single and mixed fermentation of asparagus juices. The fermentation characteristics and variation of the main bitter substances were studied. For the single and co-fermented samples, the viable counts, pH value and acidity were ranged from 8.33 lg CFU/mL to 8.65 lg CFU/mL, 3.58 to 3.86 and 6.29 g/kg to 6.52 g/kg, respectively. By sensory evaluation, the bitterness of every fermented sample was continuously reduced by at least 77% during fermentation and the corresponding content of total saponins, flavonoids and nine bitter amino acids showed varying degrees of declination. These results suggested that it was feasible to develop novel low-bitter asparagus juices fermented by the lactic acid bacteria used in this study.

Iodine is a vital trace element that must be constantly and daily supplied with food to the organism. Currently, the amount of food that can provide the organism with the required amount of iodine is insufficient. The purpose of the study was to investigate changes in organoleptic, microbiological, and biochemical parameters of kefir made with the addition of iodine during its refrigeration storage. It was found that during the storage of samples of kefir with iodine there is a slowdown in the reproduction of lactic acid bacteria, compared with the control sample. In particular, the number of lactic acid bacteria during the first two days of storage increased 1.3 times in the experimental sample and 1.5 times in the control sample of kefir. After 12 days of storage, the number of lactobacilli in the test sample of kefir increased 2.5 times, and in the control 3.2 times, compared with the amount in fresh kefir. Similar patterns were observed in determining the development of yeast. In particular, the reproduction rate of yeast in the control sample of kefir was, on average, 1.3 times faster (8 – 12 days), compared with yeast in the experimental sample. It was also found that during the 12-day storage period at a temperature of +6 °C, the titrated acidity in kefir with iodine increased 1.4 times, and in the control 1.6 times and was 130.5 °T and 154.1 °T, respectively. At such acidity values, the test sample of kefir still met the requirements of the standard, and the control was 24.1 °T higher. In this case, kefir containing iodide had better organoleptic characteristics during 12 days of storage. Produced kefir with the addition of iodine can be considered a functional product to provide the population with sufficient iodine.

Arthrospira platensis is a cyanobacterium widely used in food formulation and mainly consumed as a food supplement because of its high amount of proteins, vitamins and minerals. Different probiotic food supplements are present in the market, and a lactic acid fermented food product like dried spirulina could be useful not only to introduce lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with beneficial effects to the diet of consumers, but also to improve or change the aromatic profile of the substrate. Therefore, the aim of this study was the evaluation of lactic acid fermentation of A. platensis biomass, focusing on the consequent changes in the aromatic profile. For this purpose, two different stabilization treatments (UV light treatment and sterilization) were applied prior to fermentation with two LAB strains, Lacticaseibacillus casei 2240 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG. The biomass proved to be a suitable matrix for solid-state fermentation, showing a LAB growth of more than 2 log CFU/g in 48 h. The fermentation process was also useful for off-flavor reduction. In particular, the fermentation process significantly influenced the concentration of those compounds responsible for aldehydic/ethereal, buttery/waxy (acetoin and diacetyl), alkane and fermented aromatic notes (isoamyl alcohol). The heat treatment of the matrix, in addition to guaranteed safety for consumers, led to an improved aroma after fermentation. In conclusion, a fermented spirulina powder with a different aromatic profile was obtained with the applied heat treatment. Fermentation with lactic acid bacteria can be an interesting tool to obtain cyanobacterial biomasses with more pleasant sensory properties for potential use in food formulations.

In this review, the fermentation process (lactic acid fermentation) of white cabbage is completely coveraged. Fermentation is a very complex dynamic process with numerous physical, chemical and microbiological changes affecting quality of the final product. The sequence of lactic acid bacteria development in the fermentation process, which is characterized by the growth and change of pools of various microorganisms, is described. In place of lactic acid microorganisms Leuconostoc mesenteroides comes Lactobacillus brevis, and then propagated Lactobacillus plantarum. The main factors to be taken into account in the fermentation and storage of sauerkraut are given. In order to start the spontaneous fermentation process, it is necessary that the lactic acid bacteria present on the surface of fresh raw materials prevail over the pathogenic microflora. At the same time, the use of starter cultures is a good alternative to natural fermentation, as this ensures the proper flow of the process and the finished product of good quality. The methods of heat treatment, such as pasteurization and sterilization, allowing to extend the shelf life of the finished fermented product. Various types of packaging that are best used for fermented products are also described: plastic bags, glass and metal cans. It is specified what hygienic norms should be observed at production of sauerkraut. It is shown that fermented (fermented) cabbage has probiotic properties that have a beneficial effect on the human body. It is noted that the use of lactic acid microorganisms (starter cultures) in the fermentation process of white cabbage favorably affects the whole process, as it suppresses the development of pathogenic and other undesirable microorganisms on the surface of fresh raw materials and allows to produce a product with improved functional properties.

The aim of this study was to gain deeper insights into the dynamics of fermentation parameters and the bacterial community during the ensiling of high-moisture alfalfa. A commercial lactic acid bacteria (YX) inoculant was used as an additive. After 15 and 30 days of ensiling, the control silage (CK) exhibited a high pH and a high concentration of ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N); Enterobacter and Hafnia-Obesumbacterium were the dominant genera. At 60 d, the pH value and the concentration of NH3-N in CK silage increased compared with 15 and 30 d, propionic acid and butyric acid (BA) were detected, and Garciella had the highest abundance in the bacterial community. Compared with CK silage, inoculation of YX significantly promoted lactic acid and acetic acid accumulation and reduced pH and BA formation, did not significantly reduce the concentration of NH3-N except at 60 d, and significantly promoted the abundance of Lactobacillus and decreased the abundance of Garciella and Anaerosporobacter, but did not significantly inhibit the growth of Enterobacter and Hafnia-Obesumbacterium. In conclusion, high-moisture alfalfa naturally ensiled is prone to rot. Adding YX can delay the process of silage spoilage by inhibiting the growth of undesirable microorganisms to a certain extent.

AbstractImproving the nutrition of livestock is an important aspect of global food production sustainability. This study verified whether lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculant could promote ensiling characteristics, nutritive value, and in vitro enteric methane (CH4) mitigation of forage sorghum (FS) mixture silage in attacking malnutrition in Zebu beef cattle. The FS at the soft dough stage, Cavalcade hay (CH), and cassava chip (CC) were obtained. The treatments were designed as a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design. Factor A was FS prepared without or with CH, CC, and CH + CC. Factor B was untreated or treated with Lactobacillus casei TH14. The results showed that all FS mixture silages preserved well with lower pH values below 4.0 and higher lactic acid contents above 56.4 g/kg dry matter (DM). Adding LAB boosted the lactic acid content of silages. After 24 h and 48 h of in vitro rumen incubation, the CC-treated silage increased in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD) with increased total gas production and CH4 production. The LAB-treated silage increased IVDMD but decreased CH4 production. Thus, the addition of L. casei TH14 inoculant could improve lactic acid fermentation, in vitro digestibility, and CH4 mitigation in the FS mixture silages.

On the frame of this research survey, a novel potentially probiotic strain (Lactobacillus paracasei SP5) recently isolated from kefir grains was evaluated for chokeberry juice fermentation. Chokeberry juice was retrieved from the variety Aronia melanocarpa, a plant known to provide small, dark berries and to be one of the richest sources of antioxidants. The juice was subsequently fermented inoculating L. paracasei SP5 for 48 h at 30 °C. The fermented juices were left at 4 °C and tested regarding microbiological and physicochemical characteristics for 4 weeks. The potentially probiotic strain was proved capable of performing lactic acid fermentation at 30 °C. Cell viability of L. paracasei was detected in high levels during fermentation and the whole storage period, while the fermented juice showed higher levels of viability in juice with 40.3 g/L of initial sugar concentration. No ethanol was detected in the final fermented juice. Fermented chokeberry juice was characterized by aromatic desirable volatiles, which were retained in adequate levels for the whole storage period. Specifically, the occurrence of organic esters detected in fermented juices is considered as positive evidence of the provision of fruity and floral notes to the final product. During storage, total phenolics content and antioxidant activity were observed in higher levels in fermented chokeberry juice compared with non-fermented juice. Subsequently, fermentation of chokeberry juice by potentially probiotic lactic acid bacteria could provide high industrialization potential, providing the market with a nutritional beverage of good volatile quality with an enhanced shelf-life compared with an unfermented fresh juice.

Broccoli (Brassica oleracea Italica) was fermented by cultures of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) as a potential source of natural folic acid. This study aimed to evalte characteristic changes and to identify folate compounds from broccoli extract, fermented by mixed LAB cultures (L. bulgaricus, S. thermophulus, L.acidophilus, Bd. bifidum). The formulation of broccoli extract was fermented with variation of LAB starter culture with concentrations of 10 and 20%(v/v), and the change of characteristic of folic acid compound during fermentation (0 to 48 hours) with an interval of 8 hours was evaluated. The results showed that the fermentation of broccoli extract with different concentration of LAB culture had an effect on the concentration of folic acid produced, as well as the change of concentration of folic acid during the fermentation time interval. The optimum condition was obtained based on the highest folic acid concentration of 6.74%, at culture concentration of 20% during 24 hour fermentation with the value of folic acid concentration of 72.11 μg/mL, pH value of 4.29, total sugars of 34.61%, total acids of 0, 97%, dissolved protein of 14.64 mg/mL and total LAB of log 13.02 + 0.05 cfu / ml.
