The exploration of dominant spoilage bacteria in blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) stored under different modified atmospheres by MALDI-TOF MS in combination with 16S rRNA sequencing. Food Microbiol 2024; 118:104407. [PMID: 38049269 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2023.104407] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023]
Abstract
Few studies have addressed species-level identification of spoilage bacteria in blue mussels packed under modified atmospheres (MAs). We investigated the effect of MAs and seasons on the tentative species-level of dominant spoilage bacteria in blue mussels. Summer (s) and winter (w) blue mussels were stored at 4 °C in the atmospheres (%CO2/O2/N2): A40s (30/40/30), B60s (40/60/0), C60s (0/60/40), A40w (30/40/30), and D75w (25/75/0). In total, 122 culturable isolates were obtained at the final stage of shelf life, when mortality was high (56-100%) and total psychrotrophic bacteria counted >7 log CFU g-1. Biochemical properties were analyzed using gram reactions, catalase and oxidase activities, and salt tolerance tests. Culturable isolates were identified through matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and 16 S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Spoilage potential tests were investigated by evaluating protease, lipase, and fermentation activities as well as gas and H2S production. The culturable isolates showed tolerance to varied salt concentrations. Psychromonas arctica, Pseudoalteromonas elyakovii, and Shewanella frigidimarina were dominating in specific MAs. Winter blue mussels resulted in a higher variation of spoilage bacteria, including S. frigidimarina, S. vesiculosa, S. polaris, Micrococcus luteus, Paeniglutamicibacter terrestris sp. nov., and Alteromonas sp.

Pradal I, González-Alonso V, Wardhana YR, Cnockaert M, Wieme AD, Vandamme P, De Vuyst L. Various cold storage-backslopping cycles show the robustness of Limosilactobacillus fermentum IMDO 130101 as starter culture for Type 3 sourdough production. Int J Food Microbiol 2024; 411:110522. [PMID: 38160537 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110522] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
Type 3 sourdoughs, which are starter culture-initiated and subsequently backslopped, are less studied than other sourdough types. Yet, they can serve as a model to assess how competitive starter culture strains for sourdough production are and how the microbial composition of such sourdoughs may evolve over time. In the present study, Limosilactobacillus fermentum IMDO 130101 was used to produce Type 3 sourdoughs, prepared from wheat and wholemeal wheat flours. Therefore, an initial fermentation of the flour-water mixture was performed at 30 °C for 48 h. This was followed by cold storage-backslopping cycles, consisting of refreshments (50 %, v/v), fermentation steps of 16 h, and storage at 4 °C each week, every three weeks, and every six weeks. The microbial dynamics (culture-dependent and -independent approaches) and metabolite dynamics were measured. In all sourdoughs produced, starter culture strain monitoring, following an amplicon sequence variant approach, showed that Liml. fermentum IMDO 130101 prevailed during one month when the sourdoughs were refreshed each week, during 24 weeks when the sourdoughs were refreshed every three weeks, and during 12 weeks when the sourdoughs were refreshed every six weeks. This suggested the competitiveness and robustness of Liml. fermentum IMDO 130101 for a considerable duration but also showed that the strain is prone to microbial interference. For instance, Levilactobacillus brevis and Pediococcus spp. prevailed upon further cold storage and backslopping. Also, although no yeasts were inoculated into the flour-water mixtures, Kazachstania unispora, Torulaspora delbrueckii, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus were the main yeast species found. They appeared after several weeks of storage and backslopping, which however indicated the importance of an interplay between LAB and yeast species in sourdoughs. The main differences among the mature sourdoughs obtained could be explained by the different flours used, the refreshment conditions applied, and the sampling time (before and after backslopping). Finally, the metabolite quantifications revealed continued metabolite production during the cold storage periods, which may impact the sourdough properties and those of the breads made thereof.

Abstract
We characterized the microbial communities of the crop, midgut, hindgut, and ovaries of the wild solitary bees Andrena vaga, Anthophora plumipes, Colletes cunicularius, and Osmia cornuta through 16S rRNA gene and ITS2 amplicon sequencing and a large-scale isolation campaign. The bacterial communities of these bees were dominated by endosymbionts of the genera Wolbachia and Spiroplasma. Bacterial and yeast genera representing the remaining predominant taxa were linked to an environmental origin. While only a single sampling site was examined for Andrena vaga, Anthophora plumipes, and Colletes cunicularius, and two sampling sites for Osmia cornuta, the microbiota appeared to be host specific: bacterial, but not fungal, communities generally differed between the analyzed bee species, gut compartments and ovaries. This may suggest a selective process determined by floral and host traits. Many of the gut symbionts identified in the present study are characterized by metabolic versatility. Whether they exert similar functionalities within the bee gut and thus functional redundancy remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
We provide a culturomics analysis of the cultivable bacterial communities of the crop, midgut and hindgut compartments, as well as the ovaries, of the invasive insect Vespa velutina, along with a cultivation-independent analysis of samples of the same nest through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. The Vespa velutina bacterial symbiont community was dominated by the genera Convivina, Fructobacillus, Lactiplantibacillus, Lactococcus, Sphingomonas and Spiroplasma. Lactococcus lactis and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum represented generalist core lactic acid bacteria (LAB) symbionts, while Convivina species and Fructobacillus fructosus represented highly specialised core LAB symbionts with strongly reduced genome sizes. Sphingomonas and Spiroplasma were the only non-LAB core symbionts but were not isolated. Convivina bacteria were particularly enriched in the hornet crop and included Convivina intestini, a species adapted towards amino acid metabolism, and Convivina praedatoris sp. nov. which was adapted towards carbohydrate metabolism.

Abstract
Bacillus strains are ubiquitous in the environment and are widely used in the microbiological industry as valuable enzyme sources, as well as in agriculture to stimulate plant growth. The Bacillus genus comprises several closely related groups of species. The rapid classification of these remains challenging using existing methods. Techniques based on MALDI-TOF MS data analysis hold significant promise for fast and precise microbial strains classification at both the genus and species levels. In previous work, we proposed a geometric approach to Bacillus strain classification based on mass spectra analysis via the centroid method (CM). One limitation of such methods is the noise in MS spectra. In this study, we used a denoising autoencoder (DAE) to improve bacteria classification accuracy under noisy MS spectra conditions. We employed a denoising autoencoder approach to convert noisy MS spectra into latent variables representing molecular patterns in the original MS data, and the Random Forest method to classify bacterial strains by latent variables. Comparison of the DAE-RF with the CM method using the artificially noisy test samples showed that DAE-RF offers higher noise robustness. Hence, the DAE-RF method could be utilized for noise-robust, fast, and neat classification of Bacillus species according to MALDI-TOF MS data.

Abstract
Strain LMG 31809 T was isolated from a top soil sample of a temperate, mixed deciduous forest in Belgium. Comparison of its 16S rRNA gene sequence with that of type strains of bacteria with validly published names positioned it in the class Alphaproteobacteria and highlighted a major evolutionary divergence from its near neighbor species which represented species of the orders Emcibacterales and Sphingomonadales. 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of the same soil sample revealed a highly diverse community in which Acidobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria predominated, but failed to yield amplicon sequence variants highly similar to that of strain LMG 31809 T. There were no metagenome assembled genomes that corresponded to the same species and a comprehensive analysis of public 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data sets demonstrated that strain LMG 31809 T represents a rare biosphere bacterium that occurs at very low abundances in multiple soil and water-related ecosystems. The genome analysis suggested that this strain is a strictly aerobic heterotroph that is asaccharolytic and uses organic acids and possibly aromatic compounds as growth substrates. We propose to classify LMG 31809 T as a novel species within a novel genus, Govania unica gen. nov., sp. nov, within the novel family Govaniaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria. Its type strain is LMG 31809 T (=CECT 30155 T). The whole-genome sequence of strain LMG 31809 T has a size of 3.21 Mbp. The G + C content is 58.99 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene and whole-genome sequences of strain LMG 31809 T are publicly available under accession numbers OQ161091 and JANWOI000000000, respectively.

Abstract
Loigolactobacillus backii is an important beer-spoiling species, exhibiting high hop tolerance. Here, we present the annotated whole genome sequence of two recently isolated strains, Lg. backii KKP 3565 and KKP 3566. Firstly, to study the genetic basis of the persistence of the two isolates in beer, a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis ensued. Their chromosome map was constructed, using whole-genome sequencing and assembly, revealing that the two strains carry genomes with a length of 2.79 Mb with a GC content of 40.68%. An average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis demonstrated that the novel strains possess unique genomic sequences, also confirming their classification into the Lg. backii species. Their genome harbors numerous insertion sequences and plasmids, originating from other beer-spoiling species. Regarding their adaptation in brewery environment, homologous genes that confer resistance to hop were spotted, while the impact of hop bitters and pure beer on bacterial growth was investigated, in vitro. In brief, low hop concentrations were found to induce the proliferation of strains, while a higher concentration negatively affected their growth. Nonetheless, their ability to survive in pure beer indicated their tolerance to high hop concentrations. These results offer insight into the capacity of Lg. backii KKP 3566 and Lg. backii KKP 3566 to tolerate the extreme conditions prevalent in the brewery environment.

Abstract
AIMS To determine whether the culture-dependent spoilage microflora found in draught beer are influenced by beer style. METHODS AND RESULTS Four beer styles - lager, ale, stout, and cask ale - were sampled twice from five different public houses (accounts) in four different locations. The microbiological quality of the dispensed beers was determined by a culture-dependent method ('forcing'), measuring the increase in turbidity after incubation at 30°C. The quality of draught beer varied from 'excellent' to 'poor' with cask beer samples having a higher Quality Index (90%) with keg ale the lowest (67.5%). With PCR amplified DNA (ITS1, ITS4, 16S rRNA primers) and BLAST identification of microflora, 386 colonies from agar plates were identified with 28 different microorganisms from five genera of yeast and six of bacteria. Seven microorganisms were found in all beer styles with Brettanomyces bruxellensis, B. anomalus and Acetobacter fabarum representing 53% of the identified microorganisms. A subsequent, limited study using PALL multiplex PCR GeneDisc technology on forced samples (without selection on plates) suggests that draught beer microflora is qualitatively broader. It is noteworthy that the microflora of spoilt draught beer resembles that involved in the production of Belgian Lambic sour beers. CONCLUSIONS Draught beer was of variable quality. Culture-dependent analysis suggests that species of Brettanomyces and Acetobacter are core microflora with some microorganisms being associated with beer style. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The microbiological quality of draught beer is important both commercially and to the Consumer. Here, we report the core and diverse microflora found in different styles of draught beer using culture-dependent methods.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has revolutionized scientific research over the past few decades and has provided a unique platform in ongoing technological developments. Undoubtedly, there has been a bloom chiefly in the field of biological sciences with this emerging technology, and has enabled researchers to generate critical data in the field of disease diagnoses, drug development, dereplication. It has received well acceptance in the field of microbial identification even at strain level, as well as diversified field like biomolecule profiling (proteomics and lipidomics) has evolved tremendously.

Abstract
Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a four-carbon non-protein amino acid, is widely known to have multiple physiological functions. The present study aimed to investigate the cultivation parameters for GABA production by a lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strain isolated from a tuna gut sample. Among 60 tuna gut LAB, only 7 Limosilactobacillus fermentum isolates, i.e. NG01, NG12, NG13, NG14, NG16, NG23, and NG27, were capable of GABA fermentation, with NG16 being the most potent GABA producer. The GABA production by isolate NG16 was therefore thoroughly characterised. The optimal batch culture conditions for GABA production were an initial cell density of 5×106 CFU mL−1, a monosodium glutamate concentration of 2%, an initial pH of 7, a fermentation temperature of 35 °C, and an incubation time of 96 h. Under this cultivation conditions, NG16 produced a maximum GABA yield of 25.52 ± 0.41 mM.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, milky white bacterium, designated B2012T, was isolated from mangrove sediment collected at Beibu Gulf, South China Sea. Antimicrobial activity assay revealed that the isolate possesses the capability of producing antibacterial compounds. Strain B2012T shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence relatedness (96.9-95.5 %) with members of the genus Acuticoccus. The isolate and all known Acuticoccus species contain Q-10 as the main respiratory quinone and have the same polar lipid components (phosphatidylcholine, unidentified glycolipid, unidentified lipid, unidentified amino lipid and phosphatidylglycerol). However, genomic relatedness referred by values of average nucleotide identity, digital DNA-DNA hybridization, average amino acid identity and the percentage of conserved proteins between strain B2012T and other type strains of the genus Acuticoccus were below the proposed thresholds for species discrimination. The genome of strain B2012T was assembled into 65 scaffolds with an N50 size of 244239 bp, resulting in a 5.5 Mb genome size. Eight secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters were detected in this genome, including three non-ribosomal peptide biosynthetic loci encoding yet unknown natural products. Strain B2012T displayed moderately halophilic and alkaliphilic properties, growing optimally at 2-3 % (w/v) NaCl concentration and at pH 8-9. The major cellular fatty acids (>10 %) were anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 dimethyl aldehyde (DMA) and C16 : 0. Combined data from phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses suggested that strain B2012T represents a novel species of the genus Acuticoccus, for which the name Acuticoccus mangrovi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is B2012T (=MCCC 1K04418T=KCTC 72962T).

Abstract
Today machine learning methods are commonly deployed for bacterial species identification using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry data. However, most of the studies reported in literature only consider very traditional machine learning methods on small datasets that contain a limited number of species. In this paper we present benchmarking results on an unprecedented scale for a wide range of machine learning methods, using datasets that contain almost 100,000 spectra and more than 1000 different species. The size and the diversity of the data allow to compare three important identification scenarios that are often not distinguished in literature, i.e., identification for novel biological replicates, novel strains and novel species that are not present in the training data. The results demonstrate that in all three scenarios acceptable identification rates are obtained, but the numbers are typically lower than those reported in studies with a more limited analysis. Using hierarchical classification methods, we also demonstrate that taxonomic information is in general not well preserved in MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry data. For the novel species scenario, we apply for the first time neural networks with Monte Carlo dropout, which have shown to be successful in other domains, such as computer vision, for the detection of novel species.

Abstract
Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, motile bacteria, designated CBAS 719 T, CBAS 732 and CBAS 720 were isolated from leaf litter samples, collected in Espírito Santo State, Brazil, in 2008. Sequences of the 16S rRNA, gyrB, lepA and recA genes showed that these strains grouped with Burkholderia plantarii LMG 9035 T, Burkholderia gladioli LMG 2216 T and Burkholderia glumae LMG 2196 T in a clade of phytopathogenic Burkholderia species. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization experiments and ANI analyses demonstrated that strain CBAS 719 T represents a novel species in this lineage that is very closely related with B. plantarii. The genome sequence of the type strain is 7.57 Mbp and its G + C content is 69.01 mol%. The absence of growth on TSA medium supplemented with 3% (w/v) NaCl, citrate assimilation, β-galactosidase (PNPG) activity, and of lipase C14 activity differentiated strain CBAS 719 T from B. plantarii LMG 9035 T, its nearest phylogenetic neighbor. Its predominant fatty acid components were C16:0, C18:1 ω7c, cyclo-C17:0 and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C15:0 iso 2-OH). Based on these genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, the strains CBAS 719 T, CBAS 732 and CBAS 720 are classified in a novel Burkholderia species, for which the name Burkholderia perseverans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CBAS 719 T (= LMG 31557 T = INN12T).

Abstract
We performed a taxonomic and comparative genomics analysis of 67 novel Paraburkholderia isolates from forest soil. Phylogenetic analysis of the recA gene revealed that these isolates formed a coherent lineage within the genus Paraburkholderia that also included Paraburkholderiaaspalathi, Paraburkholderiamadseniana, Paraburkholderiasediminicola, Paraburkholderiacaffeinilytica, Paraburkholderiasolitsugae and Paraburkholderiaelongata and four unidentified soil isolates from earlier studies. A phylogenomic analysis, along with orthoANIu and digital DNA–DNA hybridization calculations revealed that they represented four different species including three novel species and P. aspalathi. Functional genome annotation of the strains revealed several pathways for aromatic compound degradation and the presence of mono- and dioxygenases involved in the degradation of the lignin-derived compounds ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid. This co-occurrence of multiple Paraburkholderia strains and species with the capacity to degrade aromatic compounds in pristine forest soil is likely caused by the abundant presence of aromatic compounds in decomposing plant litter and may highlight a diversity in micro-habitats or be indicative of synergistic relationships. We propose to classify the isolates representing novel species as Paraburkholderia domus with LMG 31832T (=CECT 30334) as the type strain, Paraburkholderia nemoris with LMG 31836T (=CECT 30335) as the type strain and Paraburkholderia haematera with LMG 31837T (=CECT 30336) as the type strain and provide an emended description of Paraburkholderia sediminicola Lim et al. 2008.

Abstract
Strains LMG 1744T, LMG 1745, LMG 31484T, LMG 1764T and R-71646 were isolated from rotting fruits and fermented food products. A phylogenomic analysis based on 107 single-copy core genes revealed that they grouped in a Gluconobacter lineage comprising Gluconobacter oxydans, Gluconobacter roseus, Gluconobacter sphaericus, Gluconobacter kanchanaburiensis, Gluconobacter albidus, Gluconobacter cerevisiae, Gluconobacter kondonii and Gluconobacter aidae. OrthoANIu and digital DNA hybridization analyses demonstrated that these five strains represented three novel Gluconobacter species, which could be differentiated from the type strains of closely related Gluconobacter species by multiple phenotypic characteristics. We therefore propose to classify strains LMG 1744T and LMG 1745 in the novel species Gluconobacter cadivus sp. nov., with LMG 1744T (=CECT 30141T) as the type strain; to classify strain LMG 31484T as the novel species Gluconobacter vitians sp. nov., with LMG 31484T (=CECT 30132T) as the type strain; and to classify strains LMG 1764T and R-71646 in the novel species Gluconobacter potus sp. nov., with LMG 1764T (=CECT 30140T) as the type strain.

Abstract
Nowadays, the use of sulfur dioxide (SO2) during the winemaking process is a controversial societal issue. In order to reduce its use, various alternatives are emerging, in particular bioprotection by adding yeasts, with different impacts on yeast microbiota in early winemaking stages. In this study, quantitative-PCR and metabarcoding high-throughput sequencing (HTS) were combined with MALDI-TOF-MS to monitor yeast population dynamic and diversity in the early stages of red winemaking process without sulfites and with bioprotection by Torulaspora delbrueckii and Metschnikowia pulcherrima addition. By using standard procedures for yeast protein extraction and a laboratory-specific database of wine yeasts, identification at species level of 95% of the isolates was successfully achieved by MALDI-TOF-MS, thus confirming that it is a promising method for wine yeast identification. The different approaches confirmed the implantation and the niche occupation of bioprotection leading to the decrease of fungal communities (HTS) and Hanseniaspora uvarum cultivable population (MALDI-TOF MS). Yeast and fungi diversity was impacted by stage of maceration and, to a lesser extent, by bioprotection and SO2, resulting in a modification of the nature and abundance of the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) diversity.

Abstract
Dromedary camel milk is generally considered a valuable and marketable commodity but its production suffers from poor hygienic conditions that result in low microbiological quality and the presence of various pathogens. The objective of the present study was to provide a detailed report of the bacterial species level composition of Moroccan raw camel milk samples that can serve as a starting point for the selection of starter cultures to facilitate a change in manufacturing practices to an improved and safer production system. The composition of the bacterial community in four freshly collected raw camel milk samples was analyzed by performing a large-scale isolation campaign combined with 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. A total of 806 isolates were obtained from four raw camel milk samples using ten combinations of growth media and incubation conditions. Subsequent isolate dereplication using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and identification of representative isolates through sequence analysis of protein encoding and 16S rRNA genes revealed the presence of established and novel dairy lactic acid bacteria, as well as bacteria that are considered indicators of poor hygienic conditions and psychrotrophic spoilage organisms. The large numbers of Lactococcus and Enterococcus isolates obtained present an interesting resource for starter culture selection.

Abstract
A phylogenomic analysis based on 107 single-copy core genes revealed that three strains from sugar-rich environments, i.e. LMG 1728T, LMG 1731 and LMG 22058, represented a single, novel Gluconacetobacter lineage with Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens as nearest validly named neighbour. OrthoANIu and digital DNA-DNA hybridization analyses among these strains and Gluconacetobacter type strains confirmed that the three strains represented a novel Gluconacetobacter species. Biochemical characteristics and MALDI-TOF mass spectra allowed differentiation of this novel species from the type strains of G. liquefaciens and other closely related Gluconacetobacter species. We therefore propose to classify strains LMG 1728T, LMG 1731 and LMG 22058 in the novel species Gluconacetobacter dulcium sp. nov., with LMG 1728T (=CECT 30142T) as the type strain.

Abstract
Identifying the Lactobacillus plantarum group using conventional taxonomic methods such as biochemical analysis and 16S rRNA gene sequencing is inaccurate, expensive, and time-consuming. In this study, for the first time, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry was used to identify the L. plantarum group and develop a classification method for species level differentiation with specific peaks based on mass spectra. Furthermore, from the mass spectra of 131 isolates aligned with the biotyper database, 131 isolates (100%) were correctly identified at the species level with a mean score of 2.316. However, commercial databases could not accurately differentiate some isolates of L. plantarum group species because the same colony was identified as different species with similar score values. Moreover, these two species showed a similar mass pattern in the main spectrum profiles-dendrogram and Principal component analysis clustering generated by the mass peak of the reference strains and isolates. Specific peaks to each species were investigated from the analyzed mass peak, and they clearly showed that three species could be differentiated. These peaks were verified by re-identifying 131 isolates, and it demonstrated 100% specificity and accuracy. Also, using a specific peak, isolates that were undifferentiated from the biotyper database were clearly identified as one species, similar to species-specific polymerase chain reaction. Our data demonstrate that the specific peaks accurately differentiate the L. plantarum group and enable high-resolution identification at the species level; this methodology can be used to rapidly and easily identify them and determine their nomenclature.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS), a culture based alternative for microbial diversity studies, is an attractive tool to dereplicate large numbers of isolates to a smaller set of representatives for downstream characterization. In the present study, MALDI-TOF MS, combined with a database of reference spectra compiled in previous studies, was applied to identify 88 non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) isolated from 18 samples of four different artisanal cheeses produced in the Island of Naxos, Greece, from raw sheep and goat milk without the addition of starters. Eighty-four isolates (95.5%) could be identified directly via MALDI-TOF MS. Lactobacillus brevis and Lactobacillus plantarum were the dominant species, followed by Lactococcus lactis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Pediococcus pentosaceus and Enterococcus faecium. The remaining four isolates represented species present in the database; however, within-species diversity was insufficiently covered. Additionally, pheS sequencing was applied to confirm identification.

Abstract
Beer is an incredibly complex beverage containing more than 3000 different compounds, including carbohydrates, proteins, ions, microbes, organic acids, and polyphenols, among others. Beer becomes even more complex during storage, for over time it may undergo chemical changes that negatively affect the flavor, aroma, and appearance. Thus, it can be expected that maintaining the quality of beer throughout its lifetime is a difficult task. Since it is such a popular drink throughout the world, being familiar with proper analytical techniques for beer evaluation is useful for researchers and brewers. These techniques include, but are not limited to, gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization, capillary electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and flame ionization detection. This review aims to summarize the various ingredients and components of beer, discuss how they affect the finished product, and present some of the analytical methods used for quality control and understanding the formation of chemicals in beer during the brewing process.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), in combination with Biotyper software, is a rapid, high-throughput, and accurate method for the identification of microbes. Microbial outbreaks in a brewery present a major risk for companies as it can lead to cost-intensive recalls and damage to the brand reputation. MALDI-TOF MS has been implemented into a brewery setting for quality control practices and the identification of beer spoilage microorganisms. However, the applicability of this approach is hindered by compatibility issues associated with mixed cultures, requiring the use of time-consuming selective cultivation techniques prior to identification. We propose a novel, low-cost approach based on the combination of inertial microfluidics and secondary flows in a spiral microchannel for high-throughput and efficient separation of yeasts (Saccharomyces pastorianus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) from beer spoilage microorganisms (Lactobacillus brevis and Pediococcus damnosus). Flow rates were optimised using S. pastorianus and L. brevis, leading to separation of more than 90% of the L. brevis cells from yeast. The microorganisms were then identified to the species level using the MALDI-TOF MS platform using standard sample preparation protocols. This study shows the high-throughput and rapid separation of spoilage microorganisms (0.3-3 μm) from background yeast (5 μm) from beer, subsequent identification using MALDI Biotyper, and the potential applicability of the approach for biological control in the brewing industry.

Abstract
Current literature shows a gap for methods which can identify yeast sub-species (strains or serovars) in samples where there are no viable cells remaining. Presented here is a technique for the analysis of yeast supernatant, including solid phase extraction, data-dependent acquisition liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and two chemometric methods to identify and classify yeast strains. Five strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were successfully identified in various stages of growth. In addition, peptide/protein identification was performed, without the need for additional data acquisition. Graphical Abstract ᅟ.

Abstract
Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei, and Lactobacillus rhamnosus are phenotypically and genotypically closely related, and together comprise the L. casei group. Although the strains of this group are commercially valuable as probiotics, the taxonomic status and nomenclature of the L. casei group have long been contentious because of the difficulties in identifying these three species by using the most frequently used genotypic methodology of 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Long used as the gold standard for species classification, DNA–DNA hybridization is laborious, requires expert skills, and is difficult to use routinely in laboratories. Currently, genome-based comparisons, including average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH), are commonly applied to bacterial taxonomy as alternatives to the gold standard method for the demarcating phylogenetic relationships. To establish quick and accurate methods for identifying strains in the L. casei group at the species and subspecies levels, we developed species- and subspecies-specific identification methods based on housekeeping gene sequences and whole-cell matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) spectral pattern analysis. By phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated housekeeping gene sequences (dnaJ, dnaK, mutL, pheS, and yycH), 53 strains were separated into four clusters corresponding to the four species: L. casei, L. paracasei and L. rhamnosus, and Lactobacillus chiayiensis sp. nov. A multiplex minisequencing assay using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-specific primers based on the dnaK gene sequences and species-specific primers based on the mutL gene sequences provided high resolution that enabled the strains at the species level to be identified as L. casei, L. paracasei, and L. rhamnosus. By MALDI-TOF MS analysis coupled with an internal database and ClinProTools software, species- and subspecies-level L. casei group strains were identified based on reliable scores and species- and subspecies-specific MS peaks. The L. paracasei strains were distinguished clearly at the subspecies level based on subspecies-specific MS peaks. This article describes the rapid and accurate methods used for identification and classification of strains in the L. casei group based on housekeeping gene sequences and MALDI-TOF MS analysis as well as the novel speciation of this group including L. chiayiensis sp. nov. and ‘Lactobacillus zeae’ by genome-based methods.

Abstract
The brewing process differs slightly in craft breweries as compared to industrial breweries, as there are fewer control points. This affects the microbiota of the final product. Beer contains several antimicrobial properties that protect it from pathogens, such as low pH, low oxygen and high carbon dioxide content, and the addition of hops. However, these hurdles have limited power controlling spoilage organisms. Contamination by these organisms can originate in the raw materials, persist in the environment, and be introduced by using flavoring ingredients later in the process. Spoilage is a prominent issue in brewing, and can cause quality degradation resulting in consumer rejection and product waste. For example, lactic acid bacteria are predominately associated with producing a ropy texture and haze, along with producing diacetyl which gives the beer butter flavor notes. Other microorganisms may not affect flavor or aroma, but can retard fermentation by consuming nutrients needed by fermentation yeast. Quality control in craft breweries today relies on culturing methods to detect specific spoilage organisms. Using media can be beneficial for detecting the most common beer spoilers, such as Lactobacillus and Pediococci. However, these methods are time consuming with long incubation periods. Molecular methods such as community profiling or high throughput sequencing are better used for identifying entire populations of beer. These methods allow for detection, differentiation, and identification of taxa.

Abstract
Brewing yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces are either available from yeast distributor centers or from breweries employing their own “in-house strains”. During the last years, the classification and characterization of yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces was achieved by using biochemical and DNA-based methods. The current lack of fast, cost-effective and simple methods to classify brewing yeasts to a beer type, may be closed by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization–Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) upon establishment of a database based on sub-proteome spectra from reference strains of brewing yeasts. In this study an extendable “brewing yeast” spectra database was established including 52 brewing yeast strains of the most important types of bottom- and top-fermenting strains as well as beer-spoiling S. cerevisiae var. diastaticus strains. 1560 single spectra, prepared with a standardized sample preparation method, were finally compared against the established database and investigated by bioinformatic analyses for similarities and distinctions. A 100% separation between bottom-, top-fermenting and S. cerevisiae var. diastaticus strains was achieved. Differentiation between Alt and Kölsch strains was not achieved because of the high similarity of their protein patterns. Whereas the Ale strains show a high degree of dissimilarity with regard to their sub-proteome. These results were supported by MDS and DAPC analysis of all recorded spectra. Within five clusters of beer types that were distinguished, and the wheat beer (WB) cluster has a clear separation from other groups. With the establishment of this MALDI-TOF MS spectra database proof of concept is provided of the discriminatory power of this technique to classify brewing yeasts into different major beer types in a rapid, easy way, and focus brewing trails accordingly. It can be extended to yeasts for specialty beer types and other applications including wine making or baking.

Abstract
Beer is the most consumed beverage in the world, especially in countries such as USA, China and Brazil.It is an alcoholic beverage made from malted cereals, and the barley malt is the main ingredient, added with water, hops and yeast. High-pressure processing is a non-traditional method to preserve food and beverages. This technology has become more interesting compared to heat pasteurization, due to the minimal changes it brings to the original nutritional and sensory characteristics of the product, and it comprises two processes: high hydrostatic pressure, which is the most industrially used process, and high-pressure homogenization. The use of high pressure almost does not affect the molecules that are responsible for the aroma and taste, pigments and vitamins compared to the conventional thermal processes. Thus, the products processed by high-pressure processing have similar characteristics compared to fresh products, including beer. The aim of this paper was to review what has been investigated about beer processing using this technology regarding the effects on physicochemical, microbiology and sensory characteristics and related issues. It is organized by processing steps, since high pressure can be applied to malting, mashing, boiling, filtration and pasteurization. Therefore, the beer processed with high-pressure processing may have an extended shelf-life because this process can inactivate beer spoilage microorganisms and result in a superior sensory quality related to freshness and preservation of flavors as it does to juices that are already commercialized. However, beyond this application, high-pressure processing can modify protein structures, such as enzymes that are present in the malt, like α- and β-amylases. This process can activate enzymes to promote, for example, saccharification, or instead inactivate at the end of mashing, depending on the pressure the product is submitted, besides being capable of isomerizing hops to raise beer bitterness. As a consequence, the process may reduce steam demand and residue generation. Therefore, the use of high-pressure processing can potentially replace or be combined with heat processes usually applied to beer, thus bringing benefits to the sensory quality of the product and to the environment.

Abstract
Identification of bacteria in aquatic and environmental applications, for monitoring purposes and research, for health assessments and therapy considerations of farmed and free-living aquatic organisms, still relies on conventional phenotypic and biochemical protocols. Although molecular techniques based on DNA amplification and sequencing are finding ways into diagnostic laboratories, they are time-consuming, costly and difficult in the case of multiplex assays. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is a rapid and accurate proteomic method reliable for identification of unknown bacteria to the genus and species level. Upon extension of databases, it will certainly find its position in environmental sciences. The paper presents an overview of the principle of the method, its effectiveness in comparison with conventional and molecular identification procedures, and applicability on environmental and aquatic isolates, discussing its advantages and shortcomings, as well as possible future implementations.

Abstract
The whole-genome sequence of Bombella intestini LMG 28161T, an endosymbiotic acetic acid bacterium (AAB) occurring in bumble bees, was determined to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying its metabolic capabilities. The draft genome sequence of B. intestini LMG 28161T was 2.02 Mb. Metabolic carbohydrate pathways were in agreement with the metabolite analyses of fermentation experiments and revealed its oxidative capacity towards sucrose, D-glucose, D-fructose and D-mannitol, but not ethanol and glycerol. The results of the fermentation experiments also demonstrated that the lack of effective aeration in small-scale carbohydrate consumption experiments may be responsible for the lack of reproducibility of such results in taxonomic studies of AAB. Finally, compared to the genome sequences of its nearest phylogenetic neighbor and of three other insect associated AAB strains, the B. intestini LMG 28161T genome lost 69 orthologs and included 89 unique genes. Although many of the latter were hypothetical they also included several type IV secretion system proteins, amino acid transporter/permeases and membrane proteins which might play a role in the interaction with the bumble bee host.

MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry Enables a Comprehensive and Fast Analysis of Dynamics and Qualities of Stress Responses of Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei F19. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0165504.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely used as starter cultures in the manufacture of foods. Upon preparation, these cultures undergo various stresses resulting in losses of survival and fitness. In order to find conditions for the subsequent identification of proteomic biomarkers and their exploitation for preconditioning of strains, we subjected Lactobacillus (Lb.) paracasei subsp. paracasei TMW 1.1434 (F19) to different stress qualities (osmotic stress, oxidative stress, temperature stress, pH stress and starvation stress). We analysed the dynamics of its stress responses based on the expression of stress proteins using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS), which has so far been used for species identification. Exploiting the methodology of accumulating protein expression profiles by MALDI-TOF MS followed by the statistical evaluation with cluster analysis and discriminant analysis of principle components (DAPC), it was possible to monitor the expression of low molecular weight stress proteins, identify a specific time point when the expression of stress proteins reached its maximum, and statistically differentiate types of adaptive responses into groups. Above the specific result for F19 and its stress response, these results demonstrate the discriminatory power of MALDI-TOF MS to characterize even dynamics of stress responses of bacteria and enable a knowledge-based focus on the laborious identification of biomarkers and stress proteins. To our knowledge, the implementation of MALDI-TOF MS protein profiling for the fast and comprehensive analysis of various stress responses is new to the field of bacterial stress responses. Consequently, we generally propose MALDI-TOF MS as an easy and quick method to characterize responses of microbes to different environmental conditions, to focus efforts of more elaborate approaches on time points and dynamics of stress responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While the epidemiology of Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) bacteria in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients suggests that Burkholderia multivorans is acquired from environmental sources, this species has rarely been isolated from soil and water samples. METHODS Multiple isolation strategies were applied to water and soil samples that were previously shown to be B. multivorans PCR positive. These included direct plating and liquid enrichment procedures and the use of selective media, acclimatizing recovery and co-cultivation with CF sputum. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and sequence analysis of 16S rRNA and housekeeping genes were used to identify all isolates. RESULTS None of the approaches yielded B. multivorans isolates. Other Burkholderia species, several Gram-negative non-fermenting bacteria (including Cupriavidus, Inquilinus, Pandoraea, Pseudomonas and Stenotrophomonas) and rapidly growing mycobacteria (including Mycobacterium chelonae) were all isolated from water and soil samples. CONCLUSIONS The use of Bcc isolation media yielded a surprisingly wide array of rare but often clinically relevant CF pathogens, confirming that soil and water are reservoirs of these infectious agents.

Abstract
This study investigated changes in the microbial composition of microbrewed beer during the manufacturing processes and identified potential microbial hazards, effective critical quality control points, and potential contamination routes. Comprehensive quantitative (aerobic plate count, lactic acid bacteria, fungi, acetic acid bacteria, coliforms, and Bacillus cereus) and qualitative (Escherichia coli and eight foodborne pathogens) microbiological analyses were performed using samples of raw materials (malt and manufacturing water), semiprocessed products (saccharified wort, boiled wort, and samples taken during the fermentation and maturation process), and the final product obtained from three plants. The initial aerobic plate count and lactic acid bacteria counts in malt were 5.2 and 4.3 log CFU/g, respectively. These counts were reduced to undetectable levels by boiling but were present at 2.9 and 0.9 log CFU/ml in the final product. Fungi were initially present at 3.6 log CFU/g, although again, the microbes were eliminated by boiling; however, the level in the final product was 4.6 log CFU/ml. No E. coli or foodborne pathogens (except B. cereus) were detected. B. cereus was detected at all stages, although it was not present in the water or boiled wort (total detection rate ¼ 16.4%). Results suggest that boiling of the wort is an effective microbial control measure, but careful management of raw materials and implementation of effective control measures after boiling are needed to prevent contamination of the product after the boiling step. The results of this study may constitute useful and comprehensive information regarding the microbiological quality of microbrewed beer.

Int J Food Microbiol 2014; 196:137-44.

Abstract
Acetic acid bacteria have attracted much attention over the past few years, due mainly to their metabolic traits that are of interest to the biotechnology industry. In addition, it turns out that their ecological habitats are almost unlimited since they have been found as symbionts in different insects and also as emerging opportunistic human pathogens. Very surprising is the finding that they colonize niches considered anaerobic, disproving the generalized statement that they are strict aerobes. Since they have taken on different biological roles in our environment, more and more people are charged with the task of identifying them. However, this turns out to be not always easy, especially if we are using phenotypic approaches for identification. A substantial step forward in making the identification of acetic acid bacteria easier was made possible using molecular biological methods, which have been extensively tested since 2000. However, some molecular methods require expensive machines and experienced staff, and moreover the level of their discrimination varies. All these factors must be considered when selecting the most appropriate approach for identifying acetic acid bacteria. With this objective in mind, this review article discusses the benefits and drawbacks of molecular biological methods for identification of acetic acid bacteria, with a focus on the 16S-23S rRNA gene ITS regions and the recently described alternative method for identification of acetic acid bacteria, MALDI-TOF MS.
