Abstract
This study aims to investigate the potential of using advanced spectroscopies for cheese quality monitoring. For this purpose, six semi-hard cheeses manufactured using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and/or propionic acid bacteria (PAB) were explored using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy. The spectral data were analyzed using principal component analysis for extraction of possible discriminative patterns in quality parameters. The results show that the green analytical, but primarily bulk-sensitive, NIRS method was able to discriminate the cheese varieties primarily due to differences in the first overtone CH stretching region between 1650 and 1720 nm, in particular by the lactate methylene absorption at 1674 nm. A total of 25 metabolites were identified in the 1H NMR spectra of the cheese extracts, several of which were associated with the LAB and PAB metabolic pathways. PAB-associated metabolites include propionate, acetate, and glutamate, while LAB-associated metabolites include lactate and acetoin among others.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine the sensory interactions between lactones and ketones in a Cheddar simulation matrix through perceptual interaction analysis. The olfactory thresholds of 6 key lactones had values ranging from 8.32 to 58.88 μg/kg, whereas those of the 4 key ketones ranged from 6.61 to 660.69 μg/kg. Both Feller's additive model and σ-τ plots demonstrated complex interactions in 24 binary mixtures composed of the 6 lactones and 4 ketones, including synergy, addition, and masking effects. Specifically, we found that 6 binary mixtures exhibited aroma synergistic effects using both methods. Moreover, the σ-τ plot showed a synergistic effect of aroma in 3 ternary mixtures. The U-model further confirmed the synergistic effects of the 6 groups of binary systems and 3 groups of ternary systems on aroma at actual cheese concentrations. In an aroma addition experiment, the combination of δ-octalactone and diacetyl in binary mixtures had the most pronounced effect on enhancing milk flavor. In ternary mixtures, 2 combinations, namely δ-octalactone/δ-dodecalactone/diacetyl and γ-dodecalactone/δ-dodecalactone/acetoin, significantly enhanced the milky and sweet aroma properties of cheese, while also enhancing the overall acceptability of the cheese aroma.

Metabolites, flavor profiles and ripening characteristics of Monascus-ripened cheese enhanced by Ligilactobacillus salivarius AR809 as adjunct culture. Food Chem 2024; 436:137759.

Abstract
Adjunct cultures strongly determined the distinguishing sensorial and nutritional characteristics of cheeses. Metabolites, flavor profiles and ripening characteristics of Monascus-ripened cheese enhanced by the co-fermentation of Ligilactobacillus salivarius AR809 were investigated. The AR809 significantly increased the contents of soluble nitrogen, small peptides (<1200 Da), free amino acids, and casein degradation degree in the resulting cheese. Furthermore, AR809 significantly promoted the formation of methyl ketones during cheese maturation. Based on untargeted metabolomics analysis, metabolites related to fatty acids metabolism and lysine degradation were highly enriched in Monascus-rich region of cheese. AR809 was primarily engaged in amino acid metabolism, promoting the synthesis of amino acids and dipeptide. L. salivarius and Monascus co-fermentation produced more beneficial bioactive metabolites involved in amino acids and lipid metabolisms than Monascus used alone in cheese ripening. Therefore, as adjunct culture, L. salivarius AR809 exhibited tremendous potential in improving nutrition and flavor quality during cheese ripening.

Microbial Diversity and Flavor Regularity of Soy Milk Fermented Using Kombucha. Foods 2023; 12:foods12040884. [PMID: 36832959 PMCID: PMC9956076 DOI: 10.3390/foods12040884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Plant-based milk is considered a healthy and environmentally sustainable option. However, due to the low protein content of most plant-based milk and the difficulty of gaining flavor acceptance by consumers, its production scale is usually limited. Soy milk is a kind of food with comprehensive nutrition and high protein content. In addition, kombucha is naturally fermented by acetic acid bacteria (AAB), yeast, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and other microorganisms, and the microorganisms in its system can improve the flavor characteristics of food. In the present study, LAB (commercially purchased) and kombucha were used as fermenting agents for soybean, which was used as a raw material to produce soy milk. A variety of characterization methods were used to study the relationship between the microbial composition and flavor regularity of soy milk produced with different proportions of fermenting agents and different fermentation times. In soy milk produced at 32 °C with a mass ratio of LAB to kombucha of 1:1 and a fermentation time of 42 h, the concentrations of LAB, yeast, and acetic acid bacteria in the milk were optimal at 7.48, 6.68, and 6.83 log CFU/mL, respectively. In fermented soy milk produced with kombucha and LAB, the dominant bacterial genera were Lactobacillus (41.58%) and Acetobacter (42.39%), while the dominant fungal genera were Zygosaccharomyces (38.89%) and Saccharomyces (35.86%). After 42 h, the content of hexanol in the fermentation system of kombucha and LAB decreased from 30.16% to 8.74%, while flavor substances such as 2,5-dimethylbenzaldehyde and linalool were produced. Soy milk fermented with kombucha offers the opportunity to explore the mechanisms associated with flavor formation in multi-strain co-fermentation systems and to develop commercial plant-based fermentation products.

Abstract
Industrial production of Gouda cheeses mostly relies on a rotated use of different mixed-strain lactic acid bacteria starter cultures to avoid phage infections. However, it is unknown how the application of these different starter culture mixtures affect the organoleptic properties of the final cheeses. Therefore, the present study assessed the impact of three different starter culture mixtures on the batch-to-batch variations among Gouda cheeses from 23 different batch productions in the same dairy company. Both the cores and rinds of all these cheeses were investigated after 36, 45, 75, and 100 weeks of ripening by metagenetics based on high-throughput full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing accompanied with an amplicon sequence variant (ASV) approach as well as metabolite target analysis of non-volatile and volatile organic compounds. Up to 75 weeks of ripening, the acidifying Lactococcus cremoris and Lactococcus lactis were the most abundant bacterial species in the cheese cores. The relative abundance of Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides was significantly different for each starter culture mixture. This impacted the concentrations of some key metabolites, such as acetoin produced from citrate, and the relative abundance of non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB). Cheeses with the least Leuc. pseudomesenteroides contained more NSLAB, such as Lacticaseibacillus paracasei that was taken over by Tetragenococcus halophilus and Loigolactobacillus rennini upon ripening time. Taken together, the results indicated a minor role of leuconostocs in aroma formation but a major impact on the growth of NSLAB. The relative abundance of T. halophilus (high) and Loil. rennini (low) increased with ripening time from rind to core. Two main ASV clusters of T. halophilus could be distinguished, which were differently correlated with some metabolites, both beneficial (regarding aroma formation) and undesirable ones (biogenic amines). A well-chosen T. halophilus strain could be a candidate adjunct culture for Gouda cheese production.

Abstract
Queijo Serra da Estrela is a PDO Portuguese cheese produced through coagulation of raw ewe’s milk using cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.) flowers. The present research was aimed at depicting an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the microbiota of Queijo Serra da Estrela cheese. To this end, viable counting and metataxonomic analysis were carried out on cheeses sampled from four Portuguese artisan producers. Physico-chemical and morpho-textural analyses were also performed, together with the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Finally, non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) isolated from the cheeses were characterized for their enzymatic activities using a semi-quantitative method. According to the metataxonomic analysis, Lactococcus lactis and Lactococcus piscium were the species occurring at the highest relative abundance. The isolates collected from the cheeses were assigned to Enterococcus durans, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus lactis, Levilactobacillus brevis, Latilactobacillus graminis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, and the Lacticaseibacillus casei group. The enzymatic characterization of these cultures highlighted esterase, aminopeptidase, acid phosphatase, beta-galactosidase, alpha-glucosidase, and beta-glucosidase among the major enzymatic activities. Fungal populations were dominated by Debaryomyces hansenii and Kurtzmaniella zeylanoides; however, species rarely found in cheese (e.g., Candida boidinii, Vishniacozyma victoriae, and Starmerella) were also detected. The volatile compounds characterizing the analyzed cheeses were carboxylic acids and esters, followed by carbonyl compounds and alcohols.

Abstract
Greek yogurt is a strained yogurt with a high protein content that brings nutritional benefits. To enhance the functional benefits of Greek yogurt, Greek yogurt was prepared with various combinations of probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) (Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus gasseri BNR17, and Lactobacillus plantarum HY7714). Effects of probiotic LAB on quality, sensory, and microbiological characteristics of Greek yogurt were then compared. Among samples, Greek yogurt fermented by S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus showed the highest changes of pH and titratable acidity during 21 d of storage at 4 °C. Greek yogurt fermented with L. plantarum HY7714 had a higher viscosity than other samples. Greek yogurt fermented with S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus, L. gasseri BNR17, and L. plantarum HY7714 showed superior physicochemical properties and received the highest preference score from sensory evaluation among samples. Overall, the population of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) was more effectively reduced in Greek yogurt fermented with probiotic LAB than in commercial Greek yogurt during storage at 4, 10, and 25 °C. Thus, the addition of L. gasseri BNR17 and L. plantarum HY7714 as starter cultures could enhance the microbial safety of Greek yogurt and sensory acceptance by consumers.

Abstract
The microbial community of industrially produced Canadian Cheddar cheese was examined from curd to ripened cheese at 30-32 months using a combination of viable plate counts of SLAB (GM17) and NSLAB (MRSv), qPCR and 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Cell treatment with propidium monoazide excluded DNA of permeable cells from amplification. The proportion of permeable cells of both Lactococcus spp. and Lacticaseibacillus spp. was highest at 3-6 months. While most remaining Lacticaseibacillus spp. cells were intact during later ripening stages, a consistent population of permeable Lactococcus spp. cells was maintained over the 32-month period. While Lactococcus sequence variants were significant biomarkers for viable cheese curd communities at 0-1 m, Lacticaseibacillus was identified as a distinctive biomarker for cheeses from 7 to 20 months. From 24 to 32 months, Lacticaseibacillus was replaced in significance by four genera (Pediococcus and Latilactobacillus at 24 m and at 30-32 m, Secundilactobacillus and Paucilactobacillus). These results underscore the importance of monitoring potential defects in cheeses aged over 24 months, which could be diagnosed early through microbial DNA profiling to minimize potential waste of product. Future perspectives include correlating volatile flavor compounds with microbial community composition as well as the investigation of intra-species diversity.

Abstract
Cheese is characterized by a rich and complex microbiota that plays a vital role during both production and ripening, contributing significantly to the safety, quality, and sensory characteristics of the final product. In this context, it is vital to explore the microbiota composition and understand its dynamics and evolution during cheese manufacturing and ripening. Application of high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies have facilitated the more accurate identification of the cheese microbiome, detailed study of its potential functionality, and its contribution to the development of specific organoleptic properties. These technologies include amplicon sequencing, whole-metagenome shotgun sequencing, metatranscriptomics, and, most recently, metabolomics. In recent years, however, the application of multiple meta-omics approaches along with data integration analysis, which was enabled by advanced computational and bioinformatics tools, paved the way to better comprehension of the cheese ripening process, revealing significant associations between the cheese microbiota and metabolites, as well as their impact on cheese flavor and quality.

[PMID: 34661886 DOI: 10.1007/s42770-021-00629-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022] Open
Abstract
The biodiversity and succession of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) involved in the production and storage of Brazilian buffalo mozzarella cheese were evaluated. The isolates were characterized by Gram staining and catalase test, by the ability to grow at different conditions: temperatures, pH, concentrations of NaCl, and production of CO2 from glucose. The biodiversity and succession of 152 LAB isolated during cheese production were evaluated by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR), and Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP-PCR) techniques. Most of the strains grow well at 30 °C and are tolerant to 6.5% of NaCl, and in general, the best pH for growing was 9.6. Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lacticaseibacillus casei, Limosilactobacillus fermentum, and Enterococcus sp. were prevalent and present in almost all steps of production. The LAB strains are typically found in the traditional Italian cheese, except the Leuconostoc citreum species. Sixty clusters were obtained by RAPD-PCR with 85% of similarity (114 isolates) while most of the LAB was clustered with 100% of similarity by the RFLP-PCR technique. The applied techniques enabled a valuable elucidation of the LAB biodiversity and succession, contributing to a better understanding of the specific microbial cultures with a technological aptitude of this cheese.

Effects of Protein, Calcium, and pH on Gene Transcription, Cell-Envelope Peptidase Activity of Lactococcus lactis Strains, and the Formation of Bitter Peptides. Foods 2021; 10:foods10071588. [PMID: 34359457 PMCID: PMC8307170 DOI: 10.3390/foods10071588] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Calcium- and protein-rich fermented milk products, such as concentrated yoghurts and fresh cheeses, may contain undesired bitter peptides, which are generated by the proteolytic cleavage of casein. Up to now, it is not clear whether this process is caused by endogenous milk enzymes, such as plasmin and cathepsin D, or whether proteolytic enzymes from applied starter cultures, such as the lactococcal cell-envelope peptidase PrtP, are involved. A sensory analysis of fresh cheese products made from milk concentrates fermented with prtP-negative and -positive Lactococcus lactis strains revealed bitterness in the products fermented with prtP-positive L. lactis strains. Two prtP-positive strains, LTH 7122 and LTH 7123, were selected to investigate the effect of increased calcium concentrations (additional 5 mM and 50 mM CaCl2) at neutral (pH 6.6) and acidic (pH 5.5) pH-values on the transcription of the prtP gene and its corresponding PrtP peptidase activity in milk citrate broth (MCB). For both strains, it was shown that prtP transcription was upregulated only under slightly elevated calcium conditions (5 mM CaCl2) after 5 h of growth. In concordance with these findings, PrtP peptidase activity also increased. When higher concentrations of calcium were used (50 mM), prtP expression of both strains decreased strongly by more than 50%. Moreover, PrtP peptidase activity of strain LTH 7123 decreased by 15%, but enzymatic activity of strain LTH 7122 increased slightly during growth under elevated calcium concentrations (50 mM CaCl2). Fermentations of reconstituted casein medium with 3.4% (w/v) and 8.5% (w/v) protein and different calcium concentrations using strain LTH 7122 revealed no clear relationship between prtP transcription and calcium or protein concentration. However, an increase in PrtP peptidase activity under elevated protein and calcium conditions was observed. The activity increase was accompanied by increased levels of bitter peptides derived from different casein fractions. These findings could be a possible explanation for the bitterness in fermented milk concentrates that was detected by a trained bitter panel.

GABA enhancement by simple carbohydrates in yoghurt fermented using novel, self-cloned Lactobacillus plantarum Taj-Apis362 and metabolomics profiling. Sci Rep 2021; 11:9417. [PMID: 33941803 PMCID: PMC8093275 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-88436-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2020] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to enhance natural gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) production in yoghurt by the addition of simple sugars and commercial prebiotics without the need for pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP) cofactor. The simple sugars induced more GABA production (42.83–58.56 mg/100 g) compared to the prebiotics (34.19–40.51 mg/100 g), with glucose promoting the most GABA production in yoghurt (58.56 mg/100 g) surpassing the control sample with added PLP (48.01 mg/100 g). The yoghurt prepared with glucose also had the highest probiotic count (9.31 log CFU/g). Simulated gastrointestinal digestion of this GABA-rich yoghurt showed a non-significant reduction in GABA content and probiotic viability, demonstrating the resistance towards a highly acidic environment (pH 1.2). Refrigerated storage up to 28 days improved GABA production (83.65 mg/100 g) compared to fresh GABA-rich yoghurt prepared on day 1. In conclusion, the addition of glucose successfully mitigates the over-use of glutamate and omits the use of PLP for increased production of GABA in yoghurt, offering an economical approach to produce a probiotic-rich dairy food with potential anti-hypertensive effects.

Abstract
Nowadays, consumers have become increasingly attentive to human health and the use of more natural products. Consequently, the demand for natural preservatives in the food industry is more frequent. This has led to intense research to discover new antimicrobial compounds of natural origin that could effectively fight foodborne pathogens. This research aims to safeguard the health of consumers and, above all, to avoid potentially harmful chemical compounds. Lactobacillus is a bacterial genus belonging to the Lactic Acid Bacteria and many strains are defined GRAS, generally recognized as safe. These strains are able to produce substances with antibacterial activity against food spoilage bacteria and contaminating pathogens: the bacteriocins. The aim of this review was to focus on this genus and its capability to produce antibacterial peptides. The review collected all the information from the last few years about bacteriocins produced by Lactobacillus strains, isolated from clinical or food samples, with remarkable antimicrobial activities useful for being exploited in the food field. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of their use and the possible ways of improvement for industrial applications were described.

Abstract
The establishment of norms that regulates the production and trade of Brazilian Artisanal Cheeses (BAC) has been stimulating many small farmers for this activity. The predominance of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is a typical characteristic of BAC, which confers desirable attributes to artisanal cheeses. However, these products can be contaminated by other microbial groups, including those that indicate hygienic failures during production and may cause spoilage, or even microorganisms that pose risks to consumers' health. A systematic review of the literature published from January 1996 to November 2020 was carried out to identify scientific data about production characteristics and microbiological aspects of BAC, with a major focus on quality and safety status of these traditional products. Studies that fulfilled the inclusion criteria indicated that artisanal chesses produced in Brazil still do not satisfactorily meet the microbiological criteria established by the national laws, mainly due to the high counts of coagulase-positive Staphylococcus and coliforms. Despite low prevalence, pathogens such as Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes were isolated in some BAC. This review contributed to better understanding microbiological aspects of BAC, the data compiled by the authors highlight the need to improve hygiene practices along the production chain of these traditional cheeses.

Abstract
Many indigenous fermented foods of Northern Thailand and neighbouring regions have traditionally been known for their health benefits. In this study, we explored the communities of bacteria in selected fermented foods which are commonly consumed among ethnic groups around Northern Thailand, for which information on their microbial compositions or their functional properties is still limited. The selected food groups included Thua Nao (alkaline fermented soybean product), Nham (fermented pork sausage/loaf), Nam phak (fermented Chinese cabbage) and Miang (fermented leaves from Miang Tea trees). Bacteria in these fermented foods were isolated and enumerated. Bacterial communities were determined using a culture-independent (pyrosequencing) approach. Lactic acid bacteria were recovered from all of these fermented food samples, with levels ranging from 3.1 to 7.5 log CFU/g throughout the fermentation processes. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene from the fermented food samples using 454-pyrosequencing resulted in 113,844 sequences after quality evaluation. Lactic acid bacteria were found in high proportions in Nham, Nam phak and Miang. Bacillus was predominant in Thua nao, in which significant proportions of Lactic acid bacteria of the family Leuconostocaceae were also found. Groups of lactic acid bacteria found varied among different food samples, but three genera were predominant: Lactococcus, Lactobacillus and Leuconostoc, of which many members are recognised as probiotics. The results showed that these traditional Thai fermented food products are rich sources of beneficial bacteria and can potentially be functional/probiotic foods.

Abstract
New strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from different traditional dairy products. Six new strains named Lactobacillus delbrueckii strain A01, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strain D01, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strain E01, Lactococcus lactis strain G01, Lactobacillus delbrueckii strain C01, and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strain F01 were identified using 16S rDNA sequencing, morphological and biochemical traits. All strains have been registered in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) with accession numbers MN611241.1, MN611300.1, MN611301.1, MN611303.1, MN611241.1, and MN611299.1, respectively. Having found ε-Poly-L-Lysine (ε-PL) in all strains isolated, Lactobacillus delbrueckii strain A01 was identified as an active producer of ε-Poly-L-Lysine (ε-PL). The one-factor-at-a-time method and central composite design were applied to optimize ε-Poly-L-Lysine (ε-PL). A predicted 200 ppm of ε-PL was obtained in the medium containing the lowest level of glucose, 25 g/l, and yeast extract, 6 g/l.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to summarize the data regarding diversity of non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) isolated from various artisanal dairy products manufactured in Western Balkan Countries. The dairy products examined were manufactured from raw cow's, sheep's or goat's milk or mixed milk, in the traditional way without the addition of commercial starter cultures. Dairy products such as white brined cheese, fresh cheese, hard cheese, yogurt, sour cream and kajmak were sampled in the households of Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. It has been established that the diversity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from raw milk artisanal dairy products is extensive. In the reviewed literature, 28 LAB species and a large number of strains belonging to the Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Enterococcus, Streptococcus, Pediococcus, Leuconostoc and Weissella genera were isolated from various dairy products. Over 3000 LAB strains were obtained and characterized for their technological and probiotic properties including: acidification and coagulation of milk, production of aromatic compounds, proteolytic activity, bacteriocins production and competitive exclusion of pathogens, production of exopolysaccharides, aggregation ability and immunomodulatory effect. Results show that many of the isolated NSLAB strains had one, two or more of the properties mentioned. The data presented emphasize the importance of artisanal products as a valuable source of NSLAB with unique technological and probiotic features important both as a base for scientific research as well as for designing novel starter cultures for functional dairy food.

Abstract
The nutrition and flavor of cheese are generated by the microbial community. Thus, horse milk cheese with unique nutrition and flavor, an increasingly popular local cheese of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China, is considered to have diverse and specific bacterial community. To verify this hypothesis, horse, cow, and goat milk cheese samples produced under the same environmental conditions and manufacturing process were collected, and the 16S rRNA gene was targeted to determine the bacterial population size and community composition by real‐time quantitative PCR and high‐throughput sequencing. The bacterial community of horse milk cheese had a significantly larger bacterial population size, greater species richness, and a more diverse composition than those of cow and goat milk cheeses. Unlike the absolute dominance of Lactococcus and Streptococcus in cow and goat milk cheeses, Lactobacillus and Streptococcus dominated the bacterial community as the starter lactic acid bacteria in horse milk cheese. Additionally, horse milk cheese also contains a higher abundance of unclassified secondary bacteria and specific secondary bacteria (e.g., Psychrobacter, Sulfurisoma, Halomonas, and Brevibacterium) than cow and goat milk cheeses. These abundant, diverse, and specific starter lactic acid bacteria and secondary bacteria may generate unique nutrition and flavor of horse milk cheese.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to track intentionally inoculated Leuconostoc mesenteroides (11251) and Lactobacillus brevis (B151) strains in kimchi using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), repetitive element palindromic PCR (rep-PCR), and comparative housekeeping gene sequences analysis. The 16S rRNA gene provided species-level information for 30 colonies randomly picked from kimchi inoculated with strains 11251 and B151. Out of 30 colonies, one colony was matched to strain 11251, and two colonies were found identical to strain B151 reference strain in inoculated kimchi. Notably, among the three tools, strain 11251 was best tracked by comparative gene sequence analysis, while strain B151 tracked by all three tools. Our results suggest that the gene sequence analysis is a more reliable tool for tracking of desired strains than RAPD and rep-PCR. Based on the findings, it is recommended that gene sequence analysis could be used to avoid misuse of industrially useful strains within the growing food industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Baixi sufu (BS) is a traditional Chinese spicy fermented bean curd manufactured with a natural starter. In this study, the bacterial and fungal communities during BS fermentation were determined by culture and by the culture-independent method of high-throughput sequencing (HTS). Correlation analyses were performed to select the microorganisms potentially contributing to this fermentation. RESULTS During the fermentation of BS, 162 bacterial and 97 fungal strains were isolated and identified, and a total of 268 314 bacterial and 287 844 fungal high-quality sequences were analyzed. In general, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), especially Enterococcus and Lactococcus, were dominant in the early stage of fermentation, and spore-forming bacteria, especially Bacillus spp., became the predominant bacteria by the end of fermentation. Geotrichum, Mortierella, and unclassified Ascomycota, were the major fungal populations, which could not be detected in the final product. Correlation analyses indicated that Enterococcus, Bacillus, Geotrichum, and unclassified Ascomycota correlated significantly and positively with amino nitrogen. However, due to the sporulation characteristics of Bacillus, they may have little effect on BS ripening. The presence of Bifidobacterium spp. in sufu is reported for the first time, but the excessive counts of the Bacillus cereus group (>105 CFU g-1 ) indicate a potential hazard to consumers. CONCLUSION The profiles obtained from this study will contribute to the development of autochthonous starter cultures to control BS fermentation, and may lead to the development of novel strategies to shorten the fermentation time of sufu products. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Diversity of volatile organic compound production from leucine and citrate in Enterococcus faecium. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2019; 104:1175-1186. [PMID: 31828406 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-019-10277-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2019] [Revised: 11/14/2019] [Accepted: 11/23/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Enterococcus faecium is frequently isolated from fermented food; in particular, they positively contribute to the aroma compound generation in traditional cheese. Citrate fermentation is a desirable property in these bacteria, but this feature is not uniformly distributed among E. faecium strains. In the present study, three selected E. faecium strains, IQ110 (cit-), GM70 (cit+ type I), and Com12 (cit+ type II), were analyzed in their production of aroma compounds in milk. End products and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were determined by solid-phase micro-extraction combined with gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS). Principal component analysis (PCA) of aroma compound profiles revealed a different VOC composition for the three strains. In addition, resting cell experiments of E. faecium performed in the presence of leucine, citrate, or pyruvate as aroma compound precursors allowed us to determine metabolic differences between the studied strains. GM70 (cit+ type I) showed an active citrate metabolism, with increased levels of diacetyl and acetoin generation relative to Com12 or to citrate defective IQ110 strains. In addition, in the experimental conditions tested, a defective citrate-fermenting phenotype for the Com12 strain was found, while its leucine degradation and pyruvate metabolism were conserved. In conclusion, rational selection of E. faecium strains could be performed based on genotypic and phenotypic analyses. This would result in a performing strain, such as GM70, that could positively contribute to flavor, with typical notes of diacetyl, acetoin, 3-methyl butanal, and 3-methyl butanol in an adjuvant culture.

Abstract
This review aims to familiarize the reader with research efforts on the cultivation media of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). We have also included a brief discussion on standard ingredients used in LAB media and chemically defined media as related to bacterial growth requirements. Recent research has focused on modifying standard media for the enumeration, differentiation, isolation, and identification of starter cultures and probiotics. Even though large numbers of these media have been developed to serve dairy microbial control, they have failed to provide consistent results. The research consequently points to the need to develop a reliable lactobacilli growth medium for the dairy industry.

Abstract
The characterization of autochthonous cultures based on their contribution to cheese flavor is an additional selection criterion for their use in cheese making. The objective of the present work was to assess the ability of three strains of mesophilic lactobacilli: Lactobacillus casei 72 (Lc72), L. paracasei 90 (Lp90), and L. plantarum 91 (Lp91), one strain of thermophilic lactobacillus: L. helveticus 209 (Lh209), and the thermophilic-mesophilic combinations, to grow and produce aroma compounds in a hard cheese model. Microbiological counts, pH, and the profiles of carbohydrates, organic acids, and volatile compounds were analyzed during incubation for 14 days at 37 ℃. The population of mesophilic lactobacilli reached levels around 8.0 log CFU ml-1 at three days, but then decreased until ∼7.0 log CFU ml-1 toward 14 days. Thermophilic lactobacillus population reached and maintained levels around 7.7 log CFU ml-1 during incubation. Carbohydrates were absent in the hard cheese model, and so no change in the pH values and in the levels of lactic acid was detected. Mesophilic lactobacilli, inoculated individually or in association with Lh209, metabolized the citric acid and produced ethanoic acid. The profiles of volatile compounds of mesophilic lactobacilli (characterized mainly by butan-2-one, 3-hydroxybutan-2-one, 3-methylbutan-1-ol, hexan-1-ol, 2-phenylethanol, and ethanoic acid) were different from the profile of thermophilic lactobacillus Lh209 (characterized mainly by heptan-2-one, ethyl acetate, isoamyl hexanoate, pentan-1-ol, decanoic acid, and 2- and 3-methylbutanal). Cooperative effects in the production of compounds related to cheese flavor, such as 3-hydroxybutan-2-one, ethyl butanoate, ethanol, pentan-2-ol, hexan-1-ol, benzeneacetaldehyde, 2-phenylethanol, and heptanoic acid, were largely evidenced between Lh209 and Lp91; in a lesser extent, cooperative effects were also found for Lh209+Lp90 for the following compounds: 3-hydroxybutan-2-one, isoamyl acetate, and ethanoic acid. Of the mesophilic lactobacilli strains evaluated, Lp91 and Lp90 would be interesting candidates for its use as adjunct cultures in hard cheeses to improve and diversify the flavor.

Abstract
Lactococcus lactis is a Gram-positive bacterium widely used as a starter culture for the production of different dairy products, especially a large variety of cheeses. Infection of lactococcal starter cultures by bacteriophages is one of the major causes of fermentation failure and often leads to production halt. Lactococcal bacteriophages belonging to the c2, 936, and P335 species are the most commonly isolated in dairy plants and have been extensively investigated in the past three decades. Information regarding bacteriophages belonging to less commonly isolated species is, on the other hand, less extensive, although these phages can also contribute to starter culture infection. Here, we report the nucleotide sequence of the newly isolated L. lactis phage CHPC971, belonging to the rare 1706 species of lactococcal phages. We investigated the nature of the host receptor recognized by the phage and collected evidence that strongly suggests that it binds to a specific sugar moiety in the cell wall pellicle of its host. An in silico analysis of the genome of phage CHPC971 identified the hypothetical genes involved in receptor binding.IMPORTANCE Gathering information on how lactococcal bacteriophages recognize their host and proliferate in the dairy environment is of vital importance for the establishment of proper starter culture rotation plans and to avoid fermentation failure and consequent great economic losses for dairy industries. We provide strong evidence on the type of receptor recognized by a newly isolated 1706-type lactococcal bacteriophage, increasing knowledge of phage-host interactions relevant to dairying. This information can help to prevent phage infection events that, so far, are hard to predict and avoid.

Abstract
Streptococcus thermophilus is an important bacterium used in the production of fermented dairy products. Yogurt with good flavor is preferred by consumers; thus, variation in flavor-formation characteristics among isolates is attracting attention. Here, acetaldehyde production characteristics of 30 isolates were evaluated in parallel with genotyping and multilocus sequence typing of key functional genes involved in acetaldehyde production. The results showed that isolates could be divided into 3 phenotypically distinct groups: high-acetaldehyde-yielding isolates (>10 mg/L), medium-acetaldehyde-yielding isolates (5-10 mg/L) and low-acetaldehyde-yielding (<5 mg/L) based on evaluation of acetaldehyde production during yogurt storage. These groups, distinguishable by phenotypic characteristics, were clustered in corresponding groups based on functional gene multilocus sequence typing analysis. Combining functional gene sequence analysis of 30 Strep. thermophilus isolates with phenotypic evaluation of their flavor-related characteristics (specifically acetaldehyde production) demonstrated that groups of isolates established using genotype data analysis corresponded with groups identified based on their phenotypic traits. Interestingly, the 30 isolates of Strep. thermophilus showed significant phylogenetic clustering in acetaldehyde content by functional gene and acetaldehyde content analysis. A corresponding relationship exists between functional gene phylogenetic clustering and acetaldehyde content variation.

Abstract
Rice has been fermented to enhance its application in some foods. Although various microbes are involved in rice fermentation, their roles in the formation of volatile compounds, which are important to the characteristics of fermented rice, are not clear. In this study, diverse approaches, such as partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), metabolic pathway-based volatile compound formations, and correlation analysis between volatile compounds and microbes were applied to compare metabolic characteristics according to each microbe and determine microbe-specific metabolites in fermented rice inoculated by molds, yeasts, and lactic acid bacteria. Metabolic changes were relatively more activated in fermented rice inoculated by molds compared to other microbes. Volatile compound profiles were significantly changed depending on each microbe as well as the group of microbes. Regarding some metabolic pathways, such as carbohydrates, amino acids, and fatty acids, it could be observed that certain formation pathways of volatile compounds were closely linked with the type of microbes. Also, some volatile compounds were strongly correlated to specific microbes; for example, branched-chain volatiles were closely link to Aspergillus oryzae, while Lactobacillus plantarum had strong relationship with acetic acid in fermented rice. This study can provide an insight into the effects of fermentative microbes on the formation of volatile compounds in rice fermentation.

Abstract
Aim: The research was conducted to determine the effect of temperature and storage duration on the physicochemical, lipolytic, microbiological, and proteolytic characteristics of goat cheese made using Lactobacillus plantarum TW14 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus TW2 bacteria. Materials and Methods: The cheese was stored at 4°C and −20°C for 0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 days. Observations were made on its physicochemical, lipolysis, and microbiological characteristics. The proteolysis pattern was measured with sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Results: The protein, fat, ash and total solids levels of cold-stored cheese were higher than the frozen-stored one. The frozen-stored cheese’s free fatty acids (FFA) and acid degree value (ADV) levels are lower than those of the cold-stored cheese as indicated by the partial lipolysis event. The total yeast in the frozen-stored cheese is lower than that in the frozen-stored cheese. Finally, the electrophoresis profile indicates that proteolysis of the frozen-stored cheese is formed since there have been detected αs1-casein, αs2-casein, β-casein, and κ-casein in the casein breakdown during the 60-day storage. Conclusion: The physicochemical characteristics of cold-stored cheese are better than the cheese stored at frozen temperature. However, frozen-stored cheese produces lower FFA and ADV than cold-stored cheese and lipolysis occurs only partially.

Abstract
The Minas artisanal cheese is a traditional product in its way of producing. Produced in the Minas Gerais state, Brazil, this cheese is made using raw cow's milk with the addition of an endogenous starter culture called "pingo", responsible for inoculating specific microorganisms that could enhance flavor and sensorial aspects. There are seven regions able to produce and commercialize this product - Araxá, Campo das Vertentes, Canastra Cerrado, Serra do Salitre, Serro and Triângulo Mineiro. This study aimed to assess the bacterial community of raw milk, endogenous starter culture and to uncover possible shifts in the bacterial community of the rind and core of cheeses at sixty days of ripening located in the Serra do Salitre region by Illumina MiSeq 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Raw milk and starter culture are responsible for inoculating specific bacteria into the cheese, with Planococcaceae and Streptococcaceae being prevalent throughout ripening time. The Planococcaceae family seems to develop strong interactions with the Leuconostocaceae family on the surface of these cheeses, and is associated with environmental aspects of the region, probably leading to a microbial signature of these products. Additionally, abiotic factors such as geographical location, moisture and acidity are major drivers in the microbial shift.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of Weissella cibaria D30 as an adjunct culture in cottage cheese, including an assessment of antioxidant, antilisterial, and compositional parameters. Cottage cheese samples were manufactured using a commercial starter culture and probiotic strains Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (GG) or W. cibaria D30 (W) and without probiotic (control). Samples were stored at 4 ± 1°C for 28 d. Bacterial cell counts (log cfu/g) of control, GG, and W samples were counted at 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 d. Counts of W. cibaria D30 in the W samples remained at 6.85 log cfu/g after 28 d. Total solids, fat, protein, ash, and pH were measured and no significant differences were observed in compositional parameters or pH after 28 d of storage in all cheeses except those inoculated to Listeria monocytogenes. To measure the antilisterial effect, Listeria monocytogenes was inoculated into the cottage cheese samples and bacterial cell counts were obtained at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 144 h. Listeria monocytogenes counts were less than the analytical limit of detection (<10 cfu/g) in the inoculated GG and W samples, whereas the counts of L. monocytogenes in the inoculated control sample remained at 3.0 log cfu/g after 144 h. We used the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS [2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)] radical scavenging activity assays to assess antioxidant activity: GG and W samples exhibited significant increases in antioxidant activity compared with the control sample. These results indicate that W. cibaria D30 has potential as an adjunct culture in the dairy industry.

BMC Microbiol 2018; 18:189. [PMID: 30453904 PMCID: PMC6245907 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-018-1323-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2017] [Accepted: 10/21/2018] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The microbiome of cheese is diverse, even within a variety. The metagenomics of cheese is dependent on a vast array of biotic and abiotic factors. Biotic factors include the population of microbiota and their resulting cellular metabolism. Abiotic factors, including the pH, water activity, fat, salt, and moisture content of the cheese matrix, as well as environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, and location of aging), influence the biotic factors. This study assessed the metagenomics of commercial Gouda cheese prepared using pasteurized or unpasteurized cow milk or pasteurized goat milk via 16S rDNA sequencing. RESULTS Results were analyzed and compared based on milk pasteurization and source, spatial variability (core, outer, and under the rind), and length of aging (2-4 up to 12-18 months). The dominant organisms in the Gouda cheeses, based on percentage of sequence reads identified at the family or genus levels, were Bacillaceae, Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, and Staphylococcus. More genus- or family-level (e.g. Bacillaceae) identifications were observed in the Gouda cheeses prepared with unpasteurized cow milk (120) compared with those prepared with pasteurized cow milk (92). When assessing influence of spatial variability on the metagenomics of the cheese, more pronounced differences in bacterial genera were observed in the samples taken under the rind; Brachybacterium, Pseudoalteromonas, Yersinia, Klebsiella, and Weissella were only detected in these samples. Lastly, the aging length of the cheese greatly influenced the number of organisms observed. Twenty-seven additional genus-level identifications were observed in Gouda cheese aged for 12-18 months compared with cheese only aged 2-4 months. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, the results of this study are important in determining the typical microbiota associated with Gouda cheese and how the microbiome plays a role in safety and quality.

Genetic diversity analysis of Leuconostoc mesenteroides from Korean vegetables and food products by multilocus sequence typing. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2018; 102:4853-4861.

Abstract
In the present study, 35 Leuconostoc mesenteroides strains isolated from vegetables and food products from South Korea were studied by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of seven housekeeping genes (atpA, groEL, gyrB, pheS, pyrG, rpoA, and uvrC). The fragment sizes of the seven amplified housekeeping genes ranged in length from 366 to 1414 bp. Sequence analysis indicated 27 different sequence types (STs) with 25 of them being represented by a single strain indicating high genetic diversity, whereas the remaining 2 were characterized by five strains each. In total, 220 polymorphic nucleotide sites were detected among seven housekeeping genes. The phylogenetic analysis based on the STs of the seven loci indicated that the 35 strains belonged to two major groups, A (28 strains) and B (7 strains). Split decomposition analysis showed that intraspecies recombination played a role in generating diversity among strains. The minimum spanning tree showed that the evolution of the STs was not correlated with food source. This study signifies that the multilocus sequence typing is a valuable tool to access the genetic diversity among L. mesenteroides strains from South Korea and can be used further to monitor the evolutionary changes.

Abstract
Akcakatik cheese (yogurt cheese) is produced by drying strained yogurt with or without adding cloves or black cumin. The main objective of this study was to detect the properties of both fresh and ripened Akcakatik cheeses and to compare them. For this purpose the biogenic amine content, volatile flavor compounds, protein degradation level, chemical properties and some microbiological properties of 15 Akcakatik cheese samples were investigated. Titratable acidity, total dry matter, NaCl, total nitrogen, water soluble nitrogen, ripened index, histamine, diacetyl and acetaldehyde levels were found to be higher in ripened cheese samples than in fresh cheese samples. On the other hand, the clove and black cumin ratios were found to be higher in the fresh cheese samples. Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electropherograms of cheese samples showed that protein degradation was higher in ripened cheese samples than in fresh samples, as expected. The dominant Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) flora of Akcakatik cheese samples were found to be Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus.

Abstract
The microbiota of ripening cheese is dominated by lactic acid bacteria, which are either added as starters and adjunct cultures or originate from the production and processing environments (nonstarter or NSLAB). After curd formation and pressing, starters reach high numbers, but their viability then decreases due to lactose depletion, salt addition, and low pH and temperature. Starter autolysis releases cellular contents, including nutrients and enzymes, into the cheese matrix. During ripening, NSLAB may attain cell densities up to 8 log cfu per g after 3 to 9 mo. Depending on the species and strain, their metabolic activity may contribute to defects or inconsistency in cheese quality and to the development of typical cheese flavor. The availability of gene and genome sequences has enabled targeted detection of specific cheese microbes and their gene expression over the ripening period. Integrated systems biology is needed to combine the multiple perspectives of post-genomics technologies to elucidate the metabolic interactions among microorganisms. Future research should delve into the variation in cell physiology within the microbial populations, because spatial distribution within the cheese matrix will lead to microenvironments that could affect localized interactions of starters and NSLAB. Microbial community modeling can contribute to improving the efficiency and reduce the cost of food processes such as cheese ripening.

Abstract
Background Lactococcus lactis is among the most widely studied lactic acid bacterial species due to its long history of safe use and economic importance to the dairy industry, where it is exploited as a starter culture in cheese production. Results In the current study, we report on the complete sequencing of 16 L. lactis subsp. lactis and L. lactis subsp. cremoris genomes. The chromosomal features of these 16 L. lactis strains in conjunction with 14 completely sequenced, publicly available lactococcal chromosomes were assessed with particular emphasis on discerning the L. lactis subspecies division, evolution and niche adaptation. The deduced pan-genome of L. lactis was found to be closed, indicating that the representative data sets employed for this analysis are sufficient to fully describe the genetic diversity of the taxon. Conclusions Niche adaptation appears to play a significant role in governing the genetic content of each L. lactis subspecies, while (differential) genome decay and redundancy in the dairy niche is also highlighted.

Abstract
Cow milk is a common allergenic food, and cow milk-derived cheese retains an appreciable level of allergenicity. The specific and sensitive detection of milk protein residues in foods is needed to protect milk-allergic consumers from exposure to undeclared milk protein residues contained in foods made with milk or milk-derived ingredients or made on shared equipment or in shared facilities with milk or milk-derived ingredients. However, during cheese ripening, milk proteins are degraded by chymosin and milk-derived and bacterial proteases. Commercial allergen-detection methods are not validated for the detection of residues in fermented or hydrolyzed products. The objective of this research was to evaluate commercially available milk ELISA kits for their capability to detect milk protein residues in aged Cheddar cheese. Cheddar cheese was manufactured at a local dairy plant and was aged at 5°C for 24 mo, with samples removed at various time points throughout aging. Milk protein residues and protein profiles were measured using 4 commercial milk ELISA kits and sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE. The ELISA data revealed a 90% loss of milk protein residue signal between the youngest and oldest Cheddar cheese samples (0.5 and 24 mo, respectively). Sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE analysis showed protein degradation throughout aging, with the highest level of proteolysis observed at 24 mo. Results suggest that current commercial milk ELISA methods can detect milk protein residues in young Cheddar cheese, but the detection signal dramatically decreases during aging. The 4 evaluated ELISA kits were not capable of detecting trace levels of milk protein residues in aged cheese. Reliable detection of allergen residues in fermented food products is critical for upholding allergen-control programs, maintaining product safety, and protecting allergic consumers. Furthermore, this research suggests a novel use of ELISA kits to monitor protein degradation as an indication of cheese ripening.
