Agarbati A, Ciani M, Esin S, Agnolucci M, Marcheggiani F, Tiano L, Comitini F. Comparative Zymocidial Effect of Three Different Killer Toxins against Brettanomyces bruxellensis Spoilage Yeasts. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021309.

Abstract
Three killer toxins that were previously investigated, one excreted by Kluyveromyces wickerhamii and two by different strains of Wickerhamomyces anomalus, were produced at the pilot scale, lyophilized and characterized, and the formulates were assessed for their zymocidial effect against Brettanomyces bruxellensis spoilage yeast. A comparative analysis allowed the evaluation of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against a sensitive strain. Fungicidal and fungistatic concentrations were used to evaluate the cytocidal effect using a cytofluorimetric approach that confirmed the lethal effect of all lyophilized formulates against B. bruxellensis spoilage yeasts. Moreover, the potential killer toxins' cytotoxicity against human intestinal cells (Caco-2) were evaluated to exclude any possible negative effect on the consumers. Finally, the effective lethal effect of all three lyophilized killer toxins toward B. bruxellensis sensitive strain were tested. The results indicated that all of them acted without dangerous effects on the human epithelial cells, opening the way for their possible commercial application. In particular, D15 showed the lowest MIC and the highest activity, was evaluated also in wine, revealing a strong reduction of Brettamonyces yeast growth and, at the same time, a control of ethyl phenols production.

Abstract
Preservation technologies for winemaking have relied mainly on the addition of sulfur dioxide (SO2), in consequence of the large spectrum of action of this compound, linked to the control of undesirable microorganisms and the prevention of oxidative phenomena. However, its potential negative effects on consumer health have addressed the interest of the international research on alternative treatments to substitute or minimize the SO2 content in grape must and wine. This review is aimed at analyzing chemical methods, both traditional and innovative, useful for the microbiological stabilization of wine. After a preliminary description of the antimicrobial and technological properties of SO2, the additive traditionally used during wine production, the effects of the addition (in must and wine) of other compounds officially permitted in winemaking, such as sorbic acid, dimethyl dicarbonate (DMDC), lysozyme and chitosan, are discussed and evaluated. Furthermore, other substances showing antimicrobial properties, for which the use for wine microbiological stabilization is not yet permitted in EU, are investigated. Even if these treatments exhibit a good efficacy, a single compound able to completely replace SO2 is not currently available, but a combination of different procedures might be useful to reduce the sulfite content in wine. Among the strategies proposed, particular interest is directed towards the use of insect-based chitosan as a reliable alternative to SO2, mainly due to its low environmental impact. The production of wines containing low sulfite levels by using pro-environmental practices can meet both the consumers’ expectations, who are even more interested in the healthy traits of foods, and wine-producers’ needs, who are interested in the use of sustainable practices to promote the profile of their brand.

Abstract
The development of novel food preservatives based on natural antimicrobials such as phenolic compounds is increasing, but their safety should be established before use, including evaluating their impact on the gut microbiota. This work explored the influence of antimicrobial phenolics presented in different forms on selected human gut microbiota members through in vitro susceptibility tests. The bacteria tested exhibited a wide range of susceptibilities to phenolics depending on the molecule structure and mode of administration. Agathobacter rectalis and Clostridium spiroforme, members of the phylum Firmicutes, were the most sensitive strains. Susceptibility was strain- and species-specific, suggesting that it may not be possible to easily extrapolate results across the human microbiome in general. Species of other phyla including Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobia were more resistant than Firmicutes, with growth of some strains even enhanced. Our results provide insights into the biocompatibility of free and immobilized phenolics as potential food additives.

Brettanomyces bruxellensis: Overview of the genetic and phenotypic diversity of an anthropized yeast. Mol Ecol 2022; 32:2374-2395. [PMID: 35318747 DOI: 10.1111/mec.16439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Revised: 03/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Human-associated microorganisms are ideal models to study the impact of environmental changes on species evolution and adaptation because of their small genome, short generation time, and their colonization of contrasting and ever-changing ecological niches. The yeast Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a good example of organism facing anthropogenic-driven selective pressures. It is associated with fermentation processes in which it can be considered either as a spoiler (e.g. winemaking, bioethanol production) or as a beneficial microorganism (e.g. production of specific beers, kombucha). Besides its industrial interests, noteworthy parallels and dichotomies with Saccharomyces cerevisiae propelled B. bruxellensis as a valuable complementary yeast model. In this review, we emphasize that the broad genetic and phenotypic diversity of this species is only beginning to be uncovered. Population genomic studies have revealed the co-existence of auto- and allotriploidization events with different evolutionary outcomes. The different diploid, autotriploid and allotriploid subpopulations are associated with specific fermented processes, suggesting independent adaptation events to anthropized environments. Phenotypically, B. bruxellensis is renowned for its ability to metabolize a wide variety of carbon and nitrogen sources, which may explain its ability to colonize already fermented environments showing low-nutrient contents. Several traits of interest could be related to adaptation to human activities (e.g. nitrate metabolization in bioethanol production, resistance to sulphite treatments in winemaking). However, phenotypic traits are insufficiently studied in view of the great genomic diversity of the species. Future work will have to take into account strains of varied substrates, geographical origins as well as displaying different ploidy levels to improve our understanding of an anthropized yeast's phenotypic landscape.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of carvacrol- and thymol-functionalised mesoporous silica microparticles (MCM-41) was assessed in the human hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG2). Cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), lipid peroxidation (LPO) and apoptosis/necrosis analyses were used as endpoints. The results showed that both materials induced cytotoxicity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, and were more cytotoxic than free essential oil components and bare MCM-41. This effect was caused by cell-particle interactions and not by degradation products released to the culture media, as demonstrated in the extract dilution assays. LDH release was a less sensitive endpoint than the MTT (thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide) assay, which suggests the impairment of the mitochondrial function as the primary cytotoxic mechanism. In vitro tests on specialised cell functions showed that exposure to sublethal concentrations of these materials did not induce ROS formation during 2 h of exposure, but produced LPO and ΔΨm alterations in a concentration-dependent manner when cells were exposed for 24 h. The obtained results generally support the hypothesis that the carvacrol- and thymol-functionalised MCM-41 microparticles induced toxicity in HepG2 cells by an oxidative stress-related mechanism that resulted in apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway.

Abstract
Inactivation of bacterial spores is a key objective for developing novel food preservation technologies. In this work, the removal properties of filtering materials based on silica microparticles functionalized with essential oil components (EOCs) (carvacrol, eugenol, thymol, and vanillin) against Bacillus subtilis, a spore-forming bacterium, in two liquid matrices were investigated. The viability of vegetative cells and spores after treatment was also evaluated. The results exhibited marked removal effectiveness against B. subtilis vegetative cells and spores after filtration with the different silica supports coated with EOCs in either sterile water or nutrient broth, with reductions of 3.2 to 4.9 log units and 3.7 to 5.0 log units for vegetative cells and spores, respectively. The fluorescent viability images revealed the poor viability of the treated B. subtilis vegetative cells and spores due to damage to the cell envelope when coming into contact with the immobilized antimicrobials. The culture counts results revealed the great inhibitory capacity of the EOC-functionalized silica microparticles against B. subtilis vegetative cells and spores after a single filtration. Hence, the present work suggests the feasibility of using EOC-functionalized supports as filtering aids to enhance the microbial quality of liquid matrices with spore-forming microorganisms. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The developed antimicrobial-coated filters have shown remarkable removal properties against an important spore-forming bacterium in food industry. These filters may be used as a potential sterilization technique for preservation of different beverages alone or in combination with other mild-thermal or nonthermal techniques.

Abstract
This work evaluated the cytotoxic effect of different EOCs-functionalised silica particle types. The in vitro toxicity of eugenol and vanillin-immobilised SAS, MCM-41 microparticles and MCM-41 nanoparticles was evaluated on HepG2 cells, and compared to free EOCs and pristine materials. The results revealed that free essential oil components and bare silica had a mild cytotoxic effect on HepG2 cells. However, the comparative study showed that free eugenol and vanillin had a milder cytotoxic effect than the equivalent concentrations of immobilised components on the different silica particles, while differences in cell viability between the bare and functionalised particles relied on the type of analysed material. The most cytotoxic materials were eugenol and vanillin-functionalised MCM-41 micro with IC50 values of 0.19 and 0.17 mg/mL, respectively, at 48 h exposure. Differences in cytotoxicity between functionalised particles may be attributed to the density of the functional components on their surface as a result of the functionalisation reaction performance for different materials. The study of the physico-chemical properties of particles demonstrated that cationic nature and increased hydrophobicity could be responsible for promoting cell-particle interactions for the eugenol and vanillin functionalised silica particles, enhancing their cytotoxic behaviour.

Abstract
In this work, the biodurability of three silica particle types (synthetic amourphous silica, MCM-41 microparticles, MCM-41 nanoparticles) functionalised with three different essential oil components (carvacrol, eugenol, vanillin) was studied under conditions that represented the human gastrointestinal tract and lysosomal fluid. The effect of particle type, surface immobilised component and mass quantity on the physico-chemical properties of particles and silicon dissolution was determined. Exposure to biological fluids did not bring about changes in the zeta potential values or particle size distribution of the bare or functionalised materials, but the in vitro digestion process partially degraded the structure of the MCM-41 nanoparticles. Functionalisation preserved the structure of the MCM-41 nanoparticles after simulating an in vitro digestion process, and significantly decreased the amount of silicon dissolved after exposing different particles to both physiological conditions, independently of the essential oil component anchored to their surface. The MCM-41 microparticles showed the highest solubility, while synthetic amorphous silica presented the lowest levels of dissolved silicon. The study of these modified silica particles under physiological conditions could help to predict the toxicological behaviour of these new materials.

Abstract
Available disinfection methods and therapies against Helicobacter pylori have multiple disadvantages, such as increased prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains, which requires the search for novel effective antimicrobial agents against H. pylori. Among them, naturally-occurring antimicrobial compounds, like essential oil components (EOCs), have been reported as substances with anti-H. pylori potential. To avoid the disadvantages associated with using EOCs in their free form, including volatility, low water solubility and intense sensory properties, their immobilisation in inert supports has recently been developed. This study sought to evaluate the inhibitory properties of EOCs immobilised on silica microparticles against H. pylori and to elucidate the mechanism of action of the immobilised antimicrobials. After the preparation and characterisation of the antimicrobial supports, the susceptibility of H. pylori in the presence of the immobilised compounds was assessed by plate count, fluorescent viability staining and direct viable count-fluorescent in situ hybridisation analyses. The antimicrobial supports were found to inhibit H. pylori growth, and to induce morphological and metabolic alterations to the H. pylori membrane, with a minimum bactericidal concentration value between 25 and 50 μg/ml according to the tested EOC. These findings indicate that immobilised EOCs can be used as potential antimicrobial agents for H. pylori clearance and treatment.
