Şalgam (Shalgam) beverage, which is manufactured by lactic acid-ethanol fermentation, takes its name from turnip radish and its purple-reddish colour from purple carrot, is a drink with certain turbidity and sour taste. This research was carried out to determine the effect of using an autochthonous starter culture and purple carrot size in şalgam production. For this purpose, with the direct production process, purple carrot in two different sizes (4 cm horizontally cut purple carrot or 12 cm vertically cut purple carrot) and şalgam with the addition of 3% L. plantarum was produced. The added starter culture enabled the fermentation to start quickly and the maximum total acidity and LAB count was reached earlier. Besides, the addition of starter culture significantly affected the overall composition of şalgam. In the production of shalgam beverage, the use of horizontally cut purple carrot and L. plantarum as an autochthonous starter culture can be recommended.

Lactic acid bacteria have been isolated from several Indonesian indigenous fermented foods and screened for the potential strains as probiotic candidates. The aim of this study was to evaluate sensory properties and respondents’ preference of yogurt-like set and yogurt-like drink with various Indonesian indigenous probiotic strains produced by dairy industry. Indigenous probiotics of Lactobacillus plantarum MUT-7 and Lactobacillus plantarum DAD-13 were used to produce yogurt-like set and yogurt-like drink. Family perception toward yogurt-like drink was performed in Yogyakarta involving 100 family members. The yogurt-like products were also compared to yogurt containing commercial Lactobacilus bulgaricus and Streptococus thermophilus or commercial yogurt produced by dairy company. Several sensory evaluation toward sensory properties and panelist’s preference were performed in different cities.  The result showed that the indigenous probiotic L. plantarum DAD-13 and L. plantarum MUT-7 were potential to be used as a starter culture for the production of yogurt-like set and yogurt-like drink. The combination of indigenous probiotics and indigenous lactic acid bacteria S. thermophilus DAD-11 resulted in better sensory properties of yogurt set compared to combination of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus.

Malolactic fermentation (MLF) in wine is an important step in the vinification of most red and some white wines, as stands for the biological conversion of l-malic acid into l-lactic acid and carbon dioxide, resulting in a decrease in wine acidity. MLF not only results in a biological deacidification, it can exert a significant impact on the organoleptic qualities of wine. This paper reviews the biodiversity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in wine, their origin, and the limiting conditions encountered in wine, which allow only the most adapted species and strains to survive and induce malolactic fermentation. Of all the species of wine LAB, Oenococcus oeni is probably the best adapted to overcome the harsh environmental wine conditions and therefore represents the majority of commercial MLF starter cultures. Wine pH is most challenging, but, as a result of global warming, Lactobacillus sp. is more often reported to predominate and be responsible for spontaneous malolactic fermentation. Some Lactobacillus plantarum strains can tolerate the high alcohol and SO2 levels normally encountered in wine. This paper shows the potential within this species for the application as a starter culture for induction of MLF in juice or wine. Due to its complex metabolism, a range of compositional changes can be induced, which may positively affect the quality of the final product. An example of a recent isolate has shown most interesting results, not only for its capacity to induce MLF after direct inoculation, but also for its positive contribution to the wine quality. Degrading hexose sugars by the homo-fermentative pathway, which poses no risk of acetic acid production from the sugars, is an interesting alternative to control MLF in high pH wines. Within this species, we can expect more strains with interesting enological properties.

We investigated the suitability of rice flour for fermented beverage production using various strains of lactic acid bacteria. Fermentation led to a decrease in pH from 5.04&ndash;5.17 to 3.74&ndash;4.35. At the same time, total acidity increased (1.28&ndash;2.59&nbsp;g/l) due to lactic acid (0.59&ndash;2.76 g/l) and acetic acid (0.11&ndash;0.30 g/l) production. Fermentation of rice beverages also caused a gradual decrease in glucose and fructose concentration. Lactic acid bacteria proliferated in the first phases of fermentation, and cell counts reached a maximum after 12 h. The highest growth rate (v<sub>LAB</sub> = 0.44 Log<sub>10</sub> CFU/ml/h) was observed in a sample with the culture of Lactobacillus brevis CCM 1815. Viscosity of beverages decreased significantly after 24&nbsp;h of fermentation. The highest values of sensory parameters were observed in a monoculture of Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 7039 and in a sample with a mixed culture of Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 7039 and Bifidobacterium longum CCM 4990.

Lactobacillus plantarum N014 is a bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria originally isolated from nham, a traditional Thai fermented sausage, and in the process of development to be used as a starter culture for nham fermentation. During the fermentation process, there is a need to identify the starter culture among several naturally occurring bacteria. In this study, a new plasmid carrying the gfp (green fluorescent protein) gene was constructed based on pGKV210, an Escherichia coli/Lactococcus shuttle vector containing an erythromycin resistance marker. The gfp gene derived from pGFPuv was placed under the control of an L-lactate dehydrogenase promoter and then inserted at the EcoRI site of pGKV210, leading to pN014-GFP. The novel plasmid was used to transform L. plantarum N014, which is a bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria isolated from nham. The resulting transformant, L. plantarum N014-GFP+, was brightly fluorescent and harbored the expected plasmid. A plasmid stability test revealed that pN014-GFP was stable after 100 generations of growth under nonselective pressure. L. plantarum N014-GFP+ and its parent strain were shown to be very similar in growth rate, bacteriocin production, and lactate production. L. plantarum N014-GFP+ was able to survive in a nham model. The survival clones were still fluorescent and harbored pN014-GFP.

Fermentation was used since ancient times as an easy method of food preservation, which also maintains and/or improves the nutritional and sensory properties of food. A research as aimed at identifying strain of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from fermented caridean-shrimp, which properties suitable for starter cultures in food fermentation. A total of 18 LAB stains were obtained from ten different samples, in each sample consisted of commercial LAB strain that isolated from ten samples of caridean-shrimp. The LAB strains from ten samples were screened for resistance to biological barriers (acid and bile salts), and the three most promising strains were selected. The three bacteria strains were isolated from samples of caridean[1]shrimp and were characterized by the API 50 CHL system of identification. Three lactic acid bacteria species were identified and included Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Strain Y’11b,2, Y’11e,2, Y’85,1, which showed probiotic characteristics reducing cell growth of cancer, could be suitable as a starter culture for food fermentation because of its strong acid production and high acid tolerance. This is the first report to describe bacteria, isolated from caridean[1]shrimp, Lactobacillus Plantarum (Y’11b,2, Y’11e,2) and Lactobacillus acidophilus (Y’85,1) which have the probiotic characteristics and the acid tolerance needed for its use as a starter culture in food fermentation.

Lactic acid bacteria produce a variety of antimicrobial compounds such as acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide, diacetyl on them as a natural competitive means to overcome other microorganism sharing the same niche. Seven different strains of Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Lactobacillus plantarum were screened for their ability to produce enzymes and metabolites. They were also screened for their ability to withstand some physiological stress like acid tolerance, temperature, salt concentration and antibacterial activity. Leuconostoc mesenteroides S3 and Lactobacillus plantarum Yh1produced values significantly different to other five isolates and they were selected. These functional properties were exploited in the fermentation of soyabean in order to obtain a probiotic vehicle. The selected isolates were used as starter both singly and in consortium. This research work also finds out the suitability of soya beans flour as a vehicle for probiotic microorganisms (Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides). The cleaned, dried and roasted soya beans were grinded to flour. The soya beans flour was fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc mesenteroides and there was mass increase in lactic acid counts in the fermented soya beans flour store at room temperature. All lactic acid fermented soya beans flour recorded increase at room temperature but slight reduction in number at refrigerator temperature from day 0 to day 14 of storage. Lactobacillus plantarum fermented soya beans flour (LPFSB) recorded increase from 5.9x105 (day 0) to 10.60x105cfu/g (day 14), while the L. plantarum stored at refrigeration temperature had 5.9x105cfu/g on (day 0) to 5.5x105cfu/g on day 14. The L. plantarum and consortium of both starters used were observed to have considerable increase in cell growth after storage, therefore this satisfies the criteria for good probiotic bacteria. Leuconostoc mesenteroides fermented soya beans slightly reduced in cell number at pH of 2 but others survived well at acidic pH and 10% bile. The cell number reduced from 4.8x106 (initial) to 4.2x106 (final). The pH of the intestine ranges from 2.5 to 3.5 and the starter culture used survive this pH and the bile product which shows greatly that they can serve as probiotic in the treatment of infection in gastrointestinal tract    .

Cabbage juices were inoculated with various microorganisms (Lactobacillus plantarum 92H, Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 7039, a mixed starter culture consisting of Lactobacillus plantarum 92H and Saccharomyces cerevisiae C11-3) and fermented spontaneously in a thermostat at 22&deg;C for 168 hours. During fermentation, the analytical and sensory parameters were followed. We found that the most suitable bacteria for the fermentation of cabbage juices was Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 7039 (highest production of lactic acid, sufficient decreasing of pH value, highest intensity of harmonic taste and acceptance of odour and taste). Cabbage juices fermented either with the mixed starter culture or spontaneously contained, at the end of fermentation, cadaverine (48.02&ndash;78.68 mg/dm<sup>3</sup>) and putrescine (82.40&ndash;202.95 mg/dm<sup>3</sup>). The contents of histamine and tyramine were under the limit of quantification in all juices. Optimal sensory characteristics were reached during 72<sup>nd</sup> hour of fermentation of cabbage juice inoculated with Lactobacillus plantarum CCM 7039, and during 96<sup>th </sup>hour of fermentation for the other juices. &nbsp;

Traditional artisan Zlatar cheese belongs to the group of white, semi hard home-made cheeses, which are produced from no pasteurized cow's milk, without addition of any known bacterial starter culture. In total, 253 Gram-positive and catalase negative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated. Results showed that 70 out of 253 analyzed isolates produced antimicrobial compounds known as bacteriocins. Most isolates from genera Lactococcus and Enterococcus, and isolates belonging to species Lactobacillus plantarum and Lb. brevis, do not synthesize extracellular proteinase. In contrast, isolates from subspecies Lb. paracasei subsp. paracasei showed very good proteolytic activity. It was observed that good proteolytic activity of isolates was not in correlation with their good antimicrobial activity in the most of isolates.
