Abstract
Bacillus licheniformis is one of the major spore-forming bacteria with great genotypic diversity in raw milk, dairy ingredients, final dairy products, and is found throughout the dairy processing continuum. Though being widely used as a probiotic strain, this species also serves as a potential risk in the dairy industry based on its roles in foodborne illness and dairy spoilage. Biofilm formation of B. licheniformis in combined with the heat resistance of its spores, make it impossible to prevent the presence of B. licheniformis in final dairy products by traditional cleaning and disinfection procedures. Despite the extensive efforts on the identification of B. licheniformis from various dairy samples, no reviews have been reported on both hazard and benefits of this spore-former. This review discusses the prevalence of B. licheniformis from raw milk to commercial dairy products, biofilm formation and spoilage potential of B. licheniformis, and its potential prevention methods. In addition, the potential benefits of B. licheniformis in the dairy industry were also summarized.

Abstract
The spoilage bacterium Bacillus licheniformis has been identified as a quick and strong biofilm former in the dairy industry. In our previous study, intra-species variation in bacterial biofilms has been observed in diverse B. licheniformis strains from different genetic backgrounds; however, the mechanisms driving the observed heterogeneity of biofilms remain to be determined. In this study, the genotype-phenotype evaluation of the heterogeneity in biofilm formation of four B. licheniformis strains were examined. The heterogeneity in biofilm phenotype was accessed in aspects of bacterial growth and motility, cell viability, biofilm matrix production, and biofilm architectures. The underlying mechanisms of the intra-species variability in biofilms were also explored by whole genome resequencing (WGR). Results from bacterial motility tests showed a diverse motility among the strains, but there was no clear correlation between bacterial motility and biofilm formation. The cell viability results showed a different number of live cells in biofilms at the intra-species level. Analysis of chemical components in biofilm matrix demonstrated the great intra-species differences regarding extracellular matrix composition, and a negative correlation between biofilm formation on stainless steel and the protein: carbohydrate ratio in biofilm matrix was observed. Confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis also revealed the intra-species variability by showing great differences in general properties of B. licheniformis biofilms. WGR results identified important pathways involved in biofilm formation, such as two-component systems, quorum sensing, starch and sucrose metabolism, ABC transporters, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, purine metabolism, and a phosphotransferase system. Overall, the above results emphasize the necessity of exploring the intra-species variation in biofilms, and would provide in-depth knowledge for designing efficient biofilm control strategies in the dairy industry.

Abstract
Bacillus licheniformis, a quick and strong biofilm former, is served as a persistent microbial contamination in the dairy industry. Its biofilm formation process is usually regulated by environmental factors including the divalent cation Ca2+. This work aims to investigate how different concentrations of Ca2+ change biofilm-related phenotypes (bacterial motility, biofilm-forming capacity, biofilm structures, and EPS production) of dairy B. licheniformis strains. The Ca2+ ions dependent regulation mechanism for B. licheniformis biofilm formation was further investigated by RNA-sequencing analysis. Results revealed that supplementation of Ca2+ increased B. licheniformis biofilm formation in a dose-dependent way, and enhanced average coverage and thickness of biofilms with complex structures were observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Bacterial mobility of B. licheniformis was increased by the supplementation of Ca2+ except the swarming ability at 20 mM of Ca2+. The addition of Ca2+ decreased the contents of polysaccharides but promoted proteins production in EPS, and the ratio of proteins/polysaccharides content was significantly enhanced with increasing Ca2+ concentrations. RNA-sequencing results clearly indicated the variation in regulating biofilm formation under different Ca2+ concentrations, as 939 (671 upregulated and 268 downregulated) and 951 genes (581 upregulated and 370 downregulated) in B. licheniformis BL2-11 were induced by 10 and 20 mM of Ca2+, respectively. Differential genes were annotated in various KEGG pathways, including flagellar assembly, two-component system, quorum sensing, ABC transporters, and related carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism pathways. Collectively, the results unravel the significance of Ca2+ as a biofilm-promoting signal for B. licheniformis in the dairy industry.

Abstract
Biofilms formed by pathogenic or spoilage microorganisms have become serious issues in the dairy industry, as this mode of life renders such microorganisms highly resistant to cleaning-in-place (CIP) procedures, disinfectants, desiccation, and other control strategies. The advent of omics techniques, especially the integration of different omics tools, has greatly improved our understanding of the features of microbial biofilms, and provided in-depth knowledge on developing effective methods that are directly against deleterious biofilms. This review provides novel insights into the single use of each omics tool and the application of multiomics tools to unravel the mechanisms of biofilm formation, specific molecular phenotypes exhibited by biofilms, and biofilm control strategies. Challenges and future perspective on the integration of omics tools for biofilm studies are also addressed.

Multi-omics reveals the increased biofilm formation of Salmonella Typhimurium M3 by the induction of tetracycline at sub-inhibitory concentrations. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 899:165695. [PMID: 37487904 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.165695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
Exposure to sub-inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs) of antibiotics could induce the biofilm formation of microorganisms, but its underlying mechanisms still remain elusive. In the present work, biofilm formation by Salmonella Typhimurium M3 was increased when in the presence of tetracycline at sub-MIC, and the highest induction was observed with tetracycline at 1/8 MIC. The integration of RNA-sequencing and untargeted metabolomics was applied in order to further decipher the potential mechanisms for this observation. In total, 439 genes and 144 metabolites of S. Typhimurium M3 were significantly expressed after its exposure to 1/8 MIC of tetracycline. In addition, the co-expression analysis revealed that 6 genes and 8 metabolites play a key role in response to 1/8 MIC of tetracycline. The differential genes and metabolites were represented in 12 KEGG pathways, including five pathways of amino acid metabolism (beta-alanine metabolism, tryptophan metabolism, arginine and proline metabolism, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, and glutathione metabolism), three lipid metabolism pathways (biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, fatty acid degradation, and fatty acid biosynthesis), two nucleotide metabolism pathways (purine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism), pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, and ABC transporters. Metabolites (anthranilate, indole, and putrescine) from amino acid metabolism may act as signaling molecules to promote the biofilm formation of S. Typhimurium M3. The results of this work highlight the importance of low antimicrobial concentrations on foodborne pathogens of environmental origin.

Abstract
Zn2+ is largely discharged from many industries and poses a severe threat to the environment, making its remediation crucial. Encapsulins, proteinaceous nano-compartments, may protect cells against environmental stresses by sequestering toxic substances. To determine whether hemerythrin-containing encapsulins (cEnc) from anammox bacteria Ca. Brocadia fulgida can help cells deal with toxic substances such as Zn2+, we transferred cEnc into E.coli by molecular biology technologies for massive expression and then cultured them in media with increasing Zn2+ levels. The engineered bacteria (with cEnc) grew better and entered the apoptosis phase later, while wild bacteria showed poor survival. Furthermore, tandem mass tag-based quantitative proteomic analysis was used to reveal the underlying regulatory mechanism by which the genetically-engineered bacteria (with cEnc) adapted to Zn2+ stress. When Zn2+ was sequestered in cEnc as a transition, the engineered bacteria presented a complex network of regulatory systems against Zn2+-induced cytotoxicity, including functions related to ribosomes, sulfur metabolism, flagellar assembly, DNA repair, protein synthesis, and Zn2+ efflux. Our findings offer an effective and promising stress control strategy to enhance the Zn2+ tolerance of bacteria for Zn2+ remediation and provide a new application for encapsulins.

Abstract
Thermophilic bacteria, such as Bacillus licheniformis, Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Bacillus Subtilis and Anoxybacillus flavithermus, are detected frequently in milk powder products. Biofilms of those strains act as a major contamination to milk powder manufactures and pose potential risks in food safety. In this study, we explored the developing process of multi-species biofilm formed by the four thermophilic bacteria on stainless steel immerged in skimmed milk. The results showed that the thermophilic strains possessed strong capacities to decompose proteins and lactose in skimmed milk, and the spoilage effects were superimposed from multiple strains. B. licheniformis was the most predominant species in the mixed-species biofilm after 12-h incubation. From 24 h to 48 h, G. stearothermophilus occupied the highest proportion. Within the multi-species biofilm, competitive relation existed between B. licheniformis and G. stearothermophilus, while synergistic impacts were observed between B. licheniformis and A. flavithermus. The interspecies mutual influences on biofilm development provided important evidences for understanding colonization of the predominant thermophilic bacteria during milk powder processing.

Abstract
Biofilms constitute a protective barrier for foodborne pathogens to survive under stressful food processing conditions. Therefore, studies into the development and control of biofilms by novel techniques are vital for the food industry. In recent years, foodomics techniques have been developed for biofilm studies, which contributed to a better understanding of biofilm behavior, physiology, composition, as well as their response to antibiofilm methods at different molecular levels including genes, RNA, proteins and metabolic metabolites. Throughout this review, the main studies where foodomics tools used to explore the mechanisms for biofilm formation, dispersal and elimination were reviewed. The data summarized from relevant studies are important to design novel and appropriate biofilm elimination methods for enhancing food safety at any point of food processing lines.

Abstract
Bacillus licheniformis is a major source of microbial contamination to dairy industry, and biofilm formation by this spoilage bacterium aggravates the safety issues. Especially for milk powder manufactures, the evaporation process at temperatures between 50 °C and 70 °C before spray drying, is a critical control point against thermophilic bacteria multiplication. In our study, metabolomics analysis was performed to investigate dynamic changes of the metabolites and their roles during process of biofilm development of B. licheniformis at 55 °C for 24 h. Amino acid metabolism was quite active, with cooperation from lipid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism and nucleotide metabolism. Amino acid biosynthesis provided significant contributions especially during early biofilm development from 8 to 12 h. Metabolites involved in specific pathways of arginine biosynthetic, galactose metabolism and sphingolipid metabolism played a crucial role in building biofilm. This work provided new insights into dynamic metabolic alternations and a comprehensive network during B. licheniformis biofilm development, which will extend the knowledge on the metabolic process of biofilm formation by B. licheniformis. The results are helpful in creating better environmental hygiene in dairy processing and new strategies for ensuring quality of dairy products.

Abstract
Cyanobacteria promote marine biofouling with significant impacts. A qualitative proteomic analysis, by LC-MS/MS, of planktonic and biofilm cells from two cyanobacteria was performed. Biofilms were formed on glass and perspex at two relevant hydrodynamic conditions for marine environments (average shear rates of 4 s-1 and 40 s-1). For both strains and surfaces, biofilm development was higher at 4 s-1. Biofilm development of Nodosilinea sp. LEGE 06145 was substantially higher than Nodosilinea sp. LEGE 06119, but no significant differences were found between surfaces. Overall, 377 and 301 different proteins were identified for Nodosilinea sp. LEGE 06145 and Nodosilinea sp. LEGE 06119. Differences in protein composition were more noticeable in biofilms formed under different hydrodynamic conditions than in those formed on different surfaces. Ribosomal and photosynthetic proteins were identified in most conditions. The characterization performed gives new insights into how shear rate and surface affect the planktonic to biofilm transition, from a structural and proteomics perspective.
