The aim of the present study was to isolate and identify lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from fermented juice of tropical crops such as Napier grass, Ruzi grass, Purple guinea grass, Stylo legume, and Leucaena and their application to improve the quality of tropical crop silage. Fifteen strains of LAB were isolated. The LAB strains were Gram-positive and catalase-negative bacteria and could be divided into three groups, i.e., Pediococcus pentosaceus, Lactiplantibacillus (para)plantarum, and Limosilactobacillus fermentum according to the biochemical API 50CH test. Based on the analysis of 16S rRNA sequence, the strains isolated in the group L. (para)plantarum were distinguished. Two isolates (N3 and G4) were identified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. Three isolates (St1, St2, and St3) were identified as L. paraplantarum. In addition, the identification of other isolates was confirmed in the group P. pentosaceus (R1, R4, R5, R8, R11, and L1) and the group L. fermentum (N4, G6, G7, and N4). All selected strains were able to grow at 50°C. All LAB strains showed antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Shigella sonnei ATCC 25931, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778. Four selected LAB strains (St1, St3, N4, and R4) were tested for their capacity to successfully ensile Stylo legume (Stylosanthes guianensis CIAT184). Stylo silages treated with LAB were well preserved, the NH3–N and butyric acid contents were lower, and the lactic acid content was higher than those in the control (p < 0.05). The acetic acid content was the highest in R4-treated silage among the treatments (p < 0.05). The crude protein (CP) content of St1-silage was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the others. The inoculation of thermotolerant LAB selected from fermented juice of epiphytic lactic acid bacteria (FJLB) was found to be highly instrumental to obtain well-preserved silage from the Stylo legume.

Abstract Along with raising public awareness about health and increasing yogurt consumption, it is critical to improve the quality of the yogurt. The innovation of yogurt producing in terms of flavor variety is critical since it can entice consumers to consume yogurt. This innovation is possible through the use of high-nutrient plant components that have not been optimally exploited in the surrounding environment. The purpose of this study was to examine the quality of yogurt produced from a variety of raw materials and stabilized naturally using Eucheuma spinosum seaweed. This study used a completely randomized design with a single factor: the type of raw material utilized in the production of yogurt (corn, sweet potato, pumpkin, banana and pineapple). The parameters analyzed included total lactic acid content, pH, total lactic acid bacteria, bacterial viability, viscosity, and organoleptic qualities such as homogeneity and taste were examined using scoring and hedonic methods. The data were evaluated using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) with a significance level of 5%, and the significantly different data were further tested using an additional test of an honest significant difference (HSD). Results show that yogurt made from corn was the best treatment, with pH value of 4.28, total lactic acid content was 1.67%; viscosity was 74,67cP, total lactic acid bacteria was 11.02 log CFU/ml, the bacterial viability met the concentration as a probiotic drink with the decreasing number 0.21 log CFU/ml, scoring test homogeneity score was 3,21 (slightly homogenous), taste score was 3.08 (slightly sour) and hedonic score for homogeneity and taste were 3.29 and 3.25 respectively.

In the experiment was the effect of absorbens supplementation on the fermentation quality of brewers´ grains silage by comparing with the untreated control. As effective substance of experimental groups were barleygroats and malt sprouts. The addition of malt sprouts „B“ and barleygroats „C“ in our experiment conditions increased statistically significantly (P<0.01) the content of DM in silage. The addition of malt sprouts decreased pH value in experimental silage (4.29±0.007) in comparison with control silage (4.43±0.049). The malt sprouts increased significantly (P<0.01) the contents of lactic acid (67.15±2.796 g/kg DM), sum of acids (84.30±2.97 g/kg DM) and decreased (P<0.01) in the trial the ethanol content (0.51±0.102 g/kg DM) and acetic acid content (17.15±0.227 g/kg DM). Silage with malt sprouts has the highest (P<0.01) ammonia content from all silages in trial (966,67±33,33 mg/kg DM). The use of absorbens inhibited significantly (P<0.01) in comparison with control silage (without absorbens) the content of propionic and butyric acid production. Brewers´grain silage with malt sprouts and barleygroats addition were free of butyric and propionic acid, but had higher lactic acid content. These results indicate that malt sprouts addition in the ensiling process may improve the fermentation quality of the brewers´grain silage.

In order to ensure better conservation and to increase the nutritive value of barley straw, the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and cellulase addition were studied. Two cellulases were Acremonium cellulase (AC) and Meiji cellulase (MC). Both cellulase and LAB addition decreased the pH values (P < 0.05) and increased lactic acid content when compared with the control, and their combination had further benefits over them alone. The efficiencies of improving fermentation quality were AC + LAB > MC + LAB > AC > MC > LAB. Cellulase addition significantly reduced ADF and crude fiber contents, and increased NFE content compared to the control (P < 0.05). The TDN contents of barley straw silages treated with AC, AC+LAB, MC and MC+LAB were increased by 11.9%, 15.5%, 7.0% and 10.8%, respectively.

The microbiota and fermentation quality of cassava foliage (CF) ensiled in the absence of additive (CK), or the presence of citric acid (CA), malic acid (MA), and their combination with a Lactobacillus plantarum strain (CAL and MAL)were investigated. These additives reduced (P &lt; 0.05) the pH, butyric acid, and ammonia-N contents but increased (P &lt; 0.05) the lactic acid content, and CAL and MAL showed similar remarkable effects. Paenibacillus (mean, 27.81%) and Bacillus (mean, 16.04%) were the predominant strains in CF silage. The addition of CA or MAL increased the abundance of Paenibacillus (25.81–52.28% and 47.97%, respectively), and the addition of MA increased the abundance of Bacillus (15.76–32.48%) compared with the CK group. Moreover, CAL and MAL increased the abundances of the potentially desirable bacteria Cellulosimicrobium (CAL 0–12.73%), Hyphomicrobium (0–7.90% and 8.94%), and Oceanobacillus (0–8.37% and 3.08%) compared with the CK group. These findings suggested that CA and MA could enhance the silage quality of CF, and their combinations with Lactobacillus plantarum were more effective.

Mixed lactic acid bacteria culture is commonly used in yogurt production. In the present study, two lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophillus) was used as starter culture. Calcium carbonate was added to the starter culture to increase the quality of mixed starter culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophillus with ratio of 4:1. The present study was directed to investigate the chemical composition of mixed starter culture with and without calcium carbonat addition. Furthermore, the effect of each starter culture on yogurt product chemical composition was also examined. The pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content was determined as chemical composition parameters. For starter culture without calcium carbonate addition, the yogurt has pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content of 4.18–4.39, 4.18–4.39% w/v, 2.88–4.36% w/v and 0.82–0.99% w/v, respectively. While for starter culture with calcium carbonate addition, the yogurt product has pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content of 4.26–4.37, 1.47–1.75% b/v, 3.42–4.95% w/v and 0.86–1.11% w/v, respectively. Addition of 0.05% w/v calcium carbonate to mixed starter culture gave effect on lactose consumption, where it still can convert lactose to lactic acid up to 45 days of storage. Furthermore, the yogurt product made with starter culture with calcium carbonate addition has higher soluble protein content compared to yogurt made with starter culture without calcium carbonate addition

The qualitative and quantitative composition of volatile compounds in fermented distillery mash determines the quality of the obtained distillate of agricultural origin (i.e., raw spirit) and the effectiveness of further purification steps. Propan-2-ol (syn. isopropyl alcohol), due to its low boiling point, is difficult to remove by rectification. Therefore, its synthesis needs to be limited during fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, while at the same time controlling the levels of acetaldehyde and acetic acid, which are likewise known to determine the quality of raw spirit. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a common but undesirable contaminant in distillery mashes. They are responsible for the production of undesirable compounds, which can affect synthesis of propan-2-ol. Some bacteria strains are able to synthesize isopropyl alcohol. This study therefore set out to investigate whether LAB with S. cerevisiae yeast are responsible for conversion of acetone to propan-2-ol, as well as the effects of the amount of LAB inoculum and fermentation parameters (pH and temperature) on the content of isopropyl alcohol, acetaldehyde, lactic acid and acetic acid in fermented mashes. The results of NMR and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with time of flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC-TOF MS) analysis confirmed the ability of the yeast and LAB strains to metabolize acetone via its reduction to isopropyl alcohol. Efficient fermentation of distillery mashes was observed in all tested mashes with an initial LAB count of 3.34–6.34 log cfu/mL, which had no significant effect on the ethanol content. However, changes were observed in the contents of by-products. Lowering the initial pH of the mashes to 4.5, without and with LAB (3.34–4.34 log cfu/mL), resulted in a decrease in propan-2-ol and a concomitant increase in acetaldehyde content, while a higher pH (5.0 and 5.5) increased the content of propan-2-ol and decreased acetaldehyde content. Higher temperature (35 °C) promoted propan-2-ol synthesis and also resulted in increased acetic acid content in the fermented mashes compared to the controls. Moreover, the acetic acid content rose with increases in the initial pH and the initial LAB count.
