Koňuchová M, Boháčiková A, Valík Ľ. Characterisation of the surface growth of Mucor circinelloides in cheese agar media using predictive mathematical models. Heliyon 2024; 10:e30812. [PMID: 38765159 PMCID: PMC11101853 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024] Open
Abstract
The main objective of this work was to characterise the mycelial growth of Mucor circinelloides, one of the fungal contaminants that appear frequently in the artisan cheese production environment. The study uses primary Baranyi and Huang models to compare their parameters and predict M. circinelloides on cheese-based medium (CBA) under diverse environmental conditions (temperature range from 6 to 37 °C and 0 and 1 % NaCl concentration). However, the Baranyi model consistently estimated longer lag phases and higher surface growth rates (sgr) than the Huang model; both models showed adequate best-fit performance (exactly with the mean coefficient of determination R2 = (0.993 ± 0.020 × 10-1). The groups of primary growth parameters were analysed against temperature using the cardinal model (CM) with the following main outputs. The optimal surface growth rates (sgropt) on CBA were 6.8 and 6.5 mm/d calculated with the Baranyi and Huang models, respectively. They were reduced by approximately 46 % on the surface of the agar medium when 1 % NaCl was added. Topt was estimated in a very narrow range of 32.1-32.5 °C from both primary sgr data sets (0 % and 1 % NaCl). Similarly, Tmax values of 37.2 °C and 37.3 °C were estimated for the Baranyi and Huang models, respectively; however, they decreased at 2 °C in CBA with 1 % NaCl (Tmax = 35.1 °C). The application of CM for sgr provided an estimation of the parameter Tmin with negative values that are considered only as a theoretical output. The results provide insight into the modelling and prediction of fungi growth as a function of time and salt concentration, including the times to detect visible mycelial growth of Mucor circinelloides. The mere quantification of this phenomenon can be useful for practice. Adjusting the frequency of the cheese surface washing step with a salt solution at the early stage of ripening properly can prevent the growth of not only fast fungal growers.

Valle M, Nguyen Van Long N, Jany JL, Koullen L, Couvert O, Huchet V, Coroller L. Impact of carbon dioxide on the radial growth of fungi isolated from dairy environment. Food Microbiol 2023; 115:104324. [PMID: 37567633 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2023.104324] [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: 01/26/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
In dairy industry, filamentous fungi are used as adjunct cultures in fermented products for their technological properties but they could also be responsible for food spoilage and mycotoxin production. The consumer demands about free-preservative products has increased in recent years and lead to develop alternative methods for food preservation. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) can inhibit fungal growth and therefore increase the food product shelf-life. This study aimed to evaluate radial growth as a function of CO2 and more particularly carbonic acid for fourteen adjuncts and/or fungal spoiler isolated from dairy products or dairy environment by using predictive mycology tools. The impact of the different chemical species linked to CO2 (notably carbonic acid) were study because it was reported previously that undissociated carbonic acid impacted bacterial growth and bicarbonates ions were involved in modifications of physiological process of fungal cells. A significant diversity in the responses of selected strains was observed. Mucor circinelloides had the fastest growth rates (μ > 11 mm. day-1) while Bisifusarium domesticum, Cladosporium herbarum and Penicillium bialowiezense had the slowest growth rates (μ < 1 mm. day-1). Independently of the medium pH, the majority of strains were sensitive to total carbonic acid. In this case, it was not possible to conclude if CO2 active form was gaseous or aqueous so modeling were performed as a function of CO2 percentage. Only Geotrichum candidum and M. circinelloides strains were sensitive to undissociated carbonic acid. Among the fourteen strains, P. bialowiezense was the less sensitive strain to CO2, no growth was observed at 50% of CO2 only for this strain. M. lanceolatus was the less sensitive strain to CO2, the CO250 which reduce the growth rates by 50% was estimated at 138% of CO2. Low CO2 percentage improved the growth of Penicillium expansum, Penicillium roqueforti and Paecilomyces niveus. Mathematical models (without and with optimum) were suggested to describe the impact of CO2 percentage or undissociated carbonic acid concentration on fungal growth rate.

Diversity of Filamentous Fungi Associated with Dairy Processing Environments and Spoiled Products in Brazil. Foods 2022; 12:foods12010153. [PMID: 36613369 PMCID: PMC9818152 DOI: 10.3390/foods12010153] [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: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Few studies have investigated the diversity of spoilage fungi from the dairy production chain in Brazil, despite their importance as spoilage microorganisms. In the present study, 109 filamentous fungi were isolated from various spoiled dairy products and dairy production environments. The isolates were identified through sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. In spoiled products, Penicillium and Cladosporium were the most frequent genera of filamentous fungi and were also present in the dairy environment, indicating that they may represent a primary source of contamination. For dairy production environments, the most frequent genera were Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Nigrospora. Four species (Hypoxylon griseobrunneum, Rhinocladiella similis, Coniochaeta rosae, and Paecilomyces maximus) were identified for the first time in dairy products or in dairy production environment. Phytopathogenic genera were also detected, such as Montagnula, Clonostachys, and Riopa. One species isolated from the dairy production environment is classified as the pathogenic fungi, R. similis. Regarding the phylogeny, 14 different families were observed and most of the fungi belong to the Ascomycota phylum. The understanding of fungal biodiversity in dairy products and environment can support the development of conservation strategies to control food spoilage. This includes the suitable use of preservatives in dairy products, as well as the application of specific cleaning and sanitizing protocols designed for a specific group of target microorganisms.

The Vapor Phase of Selected Essential Oils and Their Antifungal Activity In Vitro and In Situ against Penicillium commune, a Common Contaminant of Cheese. Foods 2022; 11:3517.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the in vitro and in situ antifungal activity of (14) selected essential oils (EOS), namely clove, thyme, red thyme, litsea, eucalyptus, niaouli, fennel, anise, cumin, basil, rosemary, sage, bergamot mint, and marjoram, by vapor contact against the growth of two strains of Penicillium commune (KMi-183 and KMi-402). Furthermore, to exclude the negative effect of EOs on the lactic acid bacteria (LABs) (Streptococcus spp.) on cheeses, their influence was monitored. Next, the sensory evaluation of cheese treated by EOs was evaluated. The results show that litsea and clove EOs were the most effective in the vapor phase against both tested strains. These EOs were characterized by the highest amount of α- (40.00%) and β-Citral (34.35%) in litsea and eugenol (85.23%) in clove. The antitoxicogenic activity of less effective (in growth inhibition) EOs on cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) production by the tested strains was also observed. The growth of Streptococcus spp. (ranging from 8.11 to 9.69 log CFU/g) was not affected by the EOs in treated cheese. Even though the evaluators recognized some EOs in sensory evaluation by the triangle test, they did not have a negative effect on the taste and smell of the treated cheeses and were evaluated as edible. The antifungal activity of EOs against several types of microscopic fungi and their effect on the sensory properties of treated foods needs to be further tested to achieve the most effective protection of foods from their direct contaminants.

Abstract
Consumers are now more concerned about food safety and hygiene following the COVID-19 pandemic. Antimicrobial packaging has attracted increased interest by reducing contamination of food surfaces to deliver quality and safe food while maintaining shelf life. Active packaging materials to reduce contamination or inhibit viral activity in packaged foods and on packaging surfaces are mostly prepared using solvent casting, but very few materials demonstrate antiviral activity on foods of animal origin, which are important in the human diet. Incorporation of silver nanoparticles, essential oils and natural plant extracts as antimicrobial agents in/on polymeric matrices provides improved antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral properties. This paper reviews recent developments in antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral packaging incorporating natural or synthetic compounds using preparation methods including extrusion, solvent casting and surface modification treatment for surface coating and their applications in several foods (i.e., bakery products, fruits and vegetables, meat and meat products, fish and seafood and milk and dairy foods). Findings showed that antimicrobial material as films, coated films, coating and pouches exhibited efficient antimicrobial activity in vitro but lower activity in real food systems. Antimicrobial activity depends on (i) polar or non-polar food components, (ii) interactions between antimicrobial compounds and the polymer materials and (iii) interactions between environmental conditions and active films (i.e., relative humidity, oxygen and water vapor permeability and temperature) that impact the migration or diffusion of active compounds in foods. Knowledge gained from the plethora of existing studies on antimicrobial polymers can be effectively utilized to develop multifunctional antimicrobial materials that can protect food products and packaging surfaces from SARS-CoV-2 contamination.

Abstract
This research paper addresses the hypothesis that the optimum doses of a continuous type of ultraviolet (UV) light applied to the surface of lor (whey) cheese needs to be identified to maximize mould inactivation and shelf life while minimizing quality deterioration. Therefore, the mould inactivation, protein and lipid oxidation products, sensory and colour attributes of lor cheese subjected to different doses of UV light (1.617, 4.018, and 36.832 kJ/m2) in a continuous type of UV system were evaluated. UV treated samples presented mould counts lower than those of untreated ones. UV treatment at more than 4.018 kJ/m2 allowed around 0.7-2.7 log reductions on mould growth during storage. The increase in UV light dose caused significant increases in primary and secondary lipid oxidation products. In particular, the highest doses applied to the surface of cheese samples had the highest values of protein carbonyls, as well as lipid oxidation products. Strong positive correlations were recorded between lipid and protein oxidation markers. Exposure to the highest doses of UV light increased foreign flavour perception, probably due to the oxidative reactions. The results indicated that the application of UV light to the lor cheese surface allowed delaying mould growth during storage but extreme doses could induce lipid and protein oxidation reactions, leading to quality deterioration.

Abstract
Traditional cheeses produced from raw milk exhibit a complex microbiota, characterized by a sequence of different microorganisms from milk coagulation and throughout maturation. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play an essential role in traditional cheese making, either as starter cultures that cause the rapid acidification of milk or as secondary microbiota that play an important role during cheese ripening. The enzymes produced by such dynamic LAB communities in raw milk are crucial, since they support proteolysis and lipolysis as chief drivers of flavor and texture of cheese. Recently, several LAB species have been characterized and used as probiotics that successfully promote human health. This review highlights the latest trends encompassing LAB acting in traditional raw milk cheeses (from cow, sheep, and goat milk), and their potential as probiotics and producers of bioactive compounds with health-promoting effects.

Spoilage Potential of Contaminating Yeast Species Kluyveromyces marxianus, Pichia kudriavzevii and Torulaspora delbrueckii during Cold Storage of Skyr. Foods 2022; 11:foods11121776. [PMID: 35741978 PMCID: PMC9223127 DOI: 10.3390/foods11121776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the spoilage potential of yeast strains Kluyveromyces marxianus (Km1, Km2 and Km3), Pichia kudriavzevii Pk1 and Torulaspora delbrueckii Td1 grown in skyr in cold storage. Yeast strains were isolated from skyr and identified by sequencing of the 26S rRNA gene. K. marxianus yeasts were grown in skyr to high numbers, generating large amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC) associated with off-flavours, among them were alcohols (3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol and 1-hexanol), esters (ethyl acetate and 3-methylbutyl acetate) and aldehydes (hexanal, methylbutanal and methylpropanal). Growth of P. kudriavzevii Pk1 led to moderate increases in several alcohols and esters (mostly, 3-methyl-1-butanol and ethyl acetate), whereas only minor shifts in VOCs were associated with T. delbrueckii Td2. The levels of the key aroma compounds, diacetyl and acetoin, were significantly decreased by all K. marxianus strains and P. kudriavzevii Pk1. In contrast to the other yeast species, K. marxianus was able to utilize lactose, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide. Based on the overall results, K. marxianus was characterised by the highest spoilage potential. The study revealed the differences between the yeast species in fermentative and spoilage activities, and clarified the role of yeast metabolites for off-flavour formation and quality defects in skyr during cold storage.

Abstract
Resistance to antibiotics is on the rise, and its indiscriminate usage has resulted in human and animal management constraints. In the research for an innovative treatment to diminish antimicrobial resistance, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) throw light on diminishing this problem in public health. As a result, this paper looked at the efficacy of LAB isolates and their active metabolites to combat pathogens, reduce antibiotic use in clinical settings, and explore the anticancer potential of 8 strains of LAB isolated from dairy products. Antifungal and antibacterial potential of LAB isolates against selected crop pathogenic fungi and food pathogenic bacteria had been estimated. Results revealed that all isolates exert antioxidant efficacy relating to DPPH, NO scavenging ability, reducing power, superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical, and anti-lipid peroxidation potential. Additionally, 12B isolate exert the highest anticancer upshot with IC50 values of 43.98 ± 0.4; 36.7 ± 0.6, 43.1 ± 0.8, and 35.1 ± 0.3 μg/ml, versus Caco-2, MCF-7, HepG-2, and PC3 cell lines respectively, whereas 13B isolate significantly had the highest selectivity index between peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and the tested human cancer cell lines compared to 5-fluorouracil. 13B was the most apoptosis-dependent death inducer for all human cancer cell lines besides exerting the lowest percentage of apoptosis against PBMCs suggesting its safety against PBMCs. The most promising strains 12B and 13B were identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ESSG1 (MZ683194.1) and Lactiplantibacillus pentosus ESSG2 (MZ683195.1). LAB and their extracts are superb substitutive, safe, and efficient antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antitumor curative agents.

Occurrence and Identification of Yeasts in Production of White-Brined Cheese. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10061079. [PMID: 35744597 PMCID: PMC9228510 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10061079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to reveal the sites of yeast contamination in dairy production and perform taxonomic characterization of potential yeast spoilers in cheese making. Occurrence of spoilage yeasts was followed throughout the manufacture of white-brined cheese at a Danish dairy, including the areas of milk pasteurization, curd processing, and packaging (26 sites in total). Spoilage yeasts were isolated from whey, old cheese curd, and air samples in viable counts of 1.48–6.27 log CFU/mL, 5.44 log CFU/g, and 1.02 log CFU/m3, respectively. Yeast isolates were genotypically classified using (GTG)5-PCR fingerprinting and identified by sequencing of the D1/D2 region of the 26S rRNA gene. The largest yeast heterogeneity was found in old curd collected under the turning machine of molds, where 11 different yeast species were identified. The most frequently isolated yeast species were Candida intermedia, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Pichia kudriavzevii. The less abundant yeast species included Candida auris, Candida parapsilosis, Candida pseudoglaebosa, Candida sojae, Cutaneotrichosporon curvatus, Cutaneotrichosporon moniliiforme, Papiliotrema flavescens, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Vanrija humicola, and Wickerhamiella sorbophila. The awareness on occurrence and taxonomy of spoilage yeasts in cheese production will contribute to a knowledge-based control of contaminating yeasts and quality management of cheese at the dairies.

Abstract
Fungal growth and consequent mycotoxin release in food and feed threatens human health, which might even, in acute cases, lead to death. Control and prevention of foodborne poisoning is a major task of public health that will be faced in the 21st century. Nowadays, consumers increasingly demand healthier and more natural food with minimal use of chemical preservatives, whose negative effects on human health are well known. Biopreservation is among the safest and most reliable methods for inhibiting fungi in food. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are of great interest as biological additives in food owing to their Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) classification and probiotic properties. LAB produce bioactive compounds such as reuterin, cyclic peptides, fatty acids, etc., with antifungal properties. This review highlights the great potential of LAB as biopreservatives by summarizing various reported antifungal activities/metabolites of LAB against fungal growth into foods. In the end, it provides profound insight into the possibilities and different factors to be considered in the application of LAB in different foods as well as enhancing their efficiency in biodetoxification and biopreservative activities.

Abstract
Mold spoilage of dairy products such as yogurt is a concern in dairy industry. Not only does it lead to substantial food waste, economic losses, and even brand image damage, but it may also cause public health concern due to the potential production of mycotoxin. Good hygiene practices are necessary to prevent contamination, but contamination may nevertheless occur at the production site and, not least, at the site of the consumer. In recent years, there has been a growing interest from consumers for "clean label" food products, which are natural, less-processed, and free of added, chemical preservatives, and a wish for shelf lives of considerable length in order to minimize food waste. This has sparked an interest in using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) or their metabolites as biopreservatives as a way to limit the growth of spoilage organisms in dairy products. A range of compounds produced by LAB with potential antifungal activity have been described as contributing factors to the inhibitory effect of LAB. More recently, growth inhibition effects caused by specific competitive exclusion have been elucidated. It has also become clear that the sensitivity toward both individual antifungal compounds and competition mechanisms differ among molds. In this review, the main spoilage molds encountered in dairy products are introduced, and an overview of the antifungal activity of LAB against different spoilage molds is presented including the main antifungal compounds derived from LAB cultures and the sensitivity of the spoilage molds observed toward these compounds. The recent findings of the role of competitive exclusion with emphasis on manganese depletion and the possible implications of this for biopreservation are described. Finally, some of the knowledge gaps, future challenges, and trends in the application of LAB biopreservation in dairy products are discussed.

Abstract
Yeasts constitute an important part of cheeses, and especially the artisanal ones. The current study reviews the occurrence of yeasts in different cheese varieties and the role of yeasts in cheesemaking process. The use of molecular methods for identification and strain typing has extended the knowledge for yeast diversity in cheeses. For the study of the occurrence of yeasts in different cheese types, seven categories are used, that is: 1) hard, 2) semi-hard, 3) soft, which includes soft pasta-filata and whey cheeses, 4) white brined cheeses, 5) mould surface ripened, 6) bacterial surface ripened cheeses, and 7) blue cheeses. For some cheese types, yeasts are the main microbial group, at least for some part of their ripening process, while for some other types, yeasts are absent. Differences between industrially manufactured cheeses and artisanal cheeses have specified. Artisanal cheeses possess a diverse assortment of yeast species, mainly belonging to the genera Candida, Clavisporalus, Cryptococcus, Debaryomyces, Geotrichum, Issatchenkia, Kazachstania, Kluyveromyces, Kodemaea, Pichia, Rhodotorula, Saccharomyces, Saturnispora, Torulaspora, Trichosporon, Yarrowia and ZygoSaccharomyces. The role of the yeasts for selected cheeses from the seven cheese categories is discussed.

Abstract
Prior to the advent of milk pasteurization and the use of defined-strain starter cultures, the production and ripening of cheese relied on the introduction and growth of adventitious microbes from the environment. This study characterized microbial community structures throughout a traditional farmstead cheese production continuum and evaluated the role of the environment in microbial transfer. In total, 118 samples (e.g., raw milk, cheese, and environmental surfaces) were collected from milk harvesting through cheese ripening. Microbial communities were characterized based on amplicon sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA and fungal internal transcribed spacer genes using the Illumina MiSeq platform. Results indicated that the environment in each processing room harbored unique microbial ecosystems and consistently contributed microbes to milk, curd, and cheese. The diverse microbial composition of milk was initially attributed to milker hands and cow teats and then changed substantially following overnight ripening in a wooden vat to one dominated by lactic acid bacteria, including Lactococcus lactis, Lactobacillus, and Leuconostoc, as well as fungi such as Exophiala, Kluyveromyces, and Candida. Additional microbial contributions were attributed to processing tools, but the composition of the cheese paste remained relatively stable over 60 days of ripening. In contrast, rind communities that were largely influenced by direct contact with bamboo aging mats showed a distinct succession pattern compared to the interior sections. Overall, these findings highlight the critical role of traditional tools and practices in shaping the microbial composition of cheese and broaden our understanding of processing environments as important sources of microbes in food. IMPORTANCE Throughout the 20th century, especially in the United States, sanitation practices, pasteurization of milk, and the use of commercial defined-strain starter cultures have enhanced the safety and consistency of cheese. However, these practices can reduce cheese microbial diversity. The rapid growth of the artisanal cheese industry in the United States has renewed interest in recapturing the diversity of dairy products and the microbes involved in their production. Here, we demonstrate the essential role of the environment, including the use of wooden tools and cheesemaking equipment, as sources of dominant microbes that shape the fermentation and ripening processes of a traditional farmstead cheese produced without the addition of starter cultures or direct inoculation of any other bacteria or fungi. These data enrich our understanding of the microbial interactions between products and the environment and identify taxa that contribute to the microbial diversity of cheese and cheese production.

Abstract
Different strains of a given fungal species may display heterogeneous growth behavior in response to environmental factors. In predictive mycology, the consideration of such variability during data collection could improve the robustness of predictive models. Among food-borne fungi, Penicillium roqueforti is a major food spoiler species which is also used as a ripening culture for blue cheese manufacturing. In the present study, we investigated the intraspecific variability of cardinal temperatures and water activities (aw), namely, minimal (Tmin and awmin), optimal (Topt and awopt) and maximal (Tmax) temperatures and/or aw estimated with the cardinal model for radial growth, of 29 Penicillium roqueforti strains belonging to 3 genetically distinct populations. The mean values of cardinal temperatures and aw for radial growth varied significantly across the tested strains, except for Tmax which was constant. In addition, the relationship between the intraspecific variability of the biological response to temperature and aw and putative genetic populations (based on microsatellite markers) within the selected P. roqueforti strains was investigated. Even though no clear relationship was identified between growth parameters and ecological characteristics, PCA confirmed that certain strains had marginal growth response to temperature or aw. Overall, the present data support the idea that a better knowledge of the response to abiotic factors such as temperature and aw at an intraspecific level would be useful to model fungal growth in predictive mycology approaches.

Abstract
Yeast spoilage of fermented dairy products causes challenges for the dairy industry, including economic losses due to wasted product. Food cultures with bioprotective effects are becoming more widely used to help ensure product quality throughout product shelf life. To assist the dairy industry when evaluating product quality throughout shelf life and the effect of bioprotective cultures, we aimed to build stochastic models that provide reliable predictions of yeast spoilage in yogurt with and without bioprotective culture. Growth characterizations of Debaryomyces hansenii, Yarrowia lipolytica, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Kluyveromyces marxianus at storage temperatures of 7, 12, and 16°C during a 30-d storage period were conducted in yogurt with and without a bioprotective culture containing Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus strains. The kinetic growth parameters were calculated using the Buchanan growth model, and these parameters were used as baseline values in Monte Carlo models to translate the yeast growth into spoilage levels. The models were developed using 100,000 simulations and they predicted yeast spoilage levels in yogurt by the 4 yeast types. Each modeled yogurt batch was set to be contaminated with yeast at a concentration drawn from a normal distribution with a mean of 1 log10 cfu/mL and standard deviation of 1 log10 cfu/mL and stored for 30 d at a temperature drawn from a normal distribution with a mean of 6.1°C and a standard deviation of 2.8°C. Considering a spoilage level of 5 log10 cfu/mL, the predicted number of spoiled samples was reduced 3-fold during the first 10 d and by 2-fold at the end of shelf life when a bioprotective culture was added to the yogurt. The models were evaluated by sensitivity analyses, where the main effect factors were maximum yeast population, storage temperature, and yeast strain. The models were validated by comparing the model output to actual observed spoilage data from a European dairy using the bioprotective culture. When the model prediction, based on a mixture of the 4 specific yeast strains, was compared with spoilage data from the European dairy, the observed effect of bioprotective cultures was considerably higher than predicted, potentially influenced by the presence of contaminating strains more sensitive to a bioprotective culture than those characterized here. The developed Monte Carlo models can predict yeast spoilage levels in yogurt at specific production settings and how this may be affected by various parameters and addition of bioprotective cultures.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The demand for preservative-free food products is rising, and biopreservation is a potential alternative to replace or reduce the use of chemical preservatives. The objectives of this study were to assess the antifungal activity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB; n = 98) and the efficacy and applicability of the chosen bioprotective cultures against fungal spoilers in dairy products. First, 14 antifungal strains were preliminarily screened by in vitro tests against Pichia pastoris D3, Aspergillus niger D1, Geotrichum candidum N1, Kluyveromyces marxianus W1, and Penicillium chrysogenum B1 and validated by challenge tests in yogurt, indicating that the fungal-inhibiting activity of LAB was species specific and yogurt fermented with antifungal LAB cultures was more effective in extending shelf life. Second, the chosen 14 LAB strains were identified by the 16S rDNA sequence analysis and carbohydrate fermentation test. The results were as follows: nine strains were Lactobacillus plantarum, three were Lactobacillus paracasei, one was Enterococus faecium, and one was Lactobacillus rhamnosus. Among them, active L. plantarum N7 was the chosen and studied factor affecting antifungal activity by using the response surface methodology. Finally, in situ tests were conducted to validate the activity of L. plantarum N7 in actual dairy products (whey beverages). Physicochemical and microbial indices of whey beverages during storage indicated that antifungal L. plantarum N7 could slow yeast growth and be candidates of interest for industrial applications.

Abstract
In this research communication we report on the diversity of yeast and mould species in 69 samples of milk and different dairy products from three plants located in Umbria, central Italy. Isolates were characterised both macroscopically and microscopically and then identified by PCR and genome sequencing of the ITS region and the D1-D2 domain of the large-subunit rRNA gene for filamentous fungi and yeasts, respectively. Out of the 69 samples analysed, 51 (73.9%) tested positive for the presence of yeasts, whereas moulds were detected in 25 (36.2%) samples. A total of 9 yeast species belonging to 8 different genera and 13 mould species belonging to 6 different genera were isolated. The most common genera isolated were Debaryomyces and Kluyveromyces among the yeasts and Penicillium and Galactomyces among the moulds. Microbiota play a key role in the formation of flavour, aroma, texture and appearance of dairy products. This complex microbial ecosystem includes both cultured and external bacteria, yeasts and moulds. Some of them have an important role in the production of cheeses, whereas others are responsible for dairy product spoilage, resulting in significant food waste and economic losses. Some species can produce mycotoxins, representing a potential hazard for the consumer's safety. This study provides interesting information on the diversity of fungi species in dairy products from central Italy that can be of major importance to identify these products and to develop adequate strategies for fungal spoilage control and consumer safety.

Abstract
Production of artisan cheeses, including surface-ripened cheeses, has increased in the United States over the past 2 decades. Although many of these cheesemakers report unique quality and spoilage problems during production, a systematic assessment of the quality concerns facing this sector of specialty cheese production has not been conducted. Here we report the effects of microbial spoilage and quality issues on US artisan cheese production. In a survey of 61 cheesemakers, the most common issues reported were undesirable surface molds (71%) and incorrect or unexpected colors or pigments on rinds (54%). When asked, 18% of participants indicated that they were extremely concerned about quality and spoilage problems, and they indicated that their quality standards are frequently not met, either annually (39%) or monthly (33%). Although most of the respondents (62%) said that just 0 to 5% of their cheese was lost or rendered less valuable due to quality issues annually, a small number (7% combined) reported large losses of 20 to 30% or >30% of their product lost or rendered less valuable. Almost all respondents (95%) agreed that improved quality would reduce waste, increase profits, and improve production. The survey respondents indicated in open response questions that they want access to more online resources related to quality issues and digital forums to discuss issues with experts and peers when problems arise. These findings represent the first attempt to document and estimate the effect of quality and spoilage on the American artisan cheese industry. Future work should investigate what technologies, interventions, or information could reduce losses from these problems.

The Influence of Dietary Fibers on Physicochemical Properties of Acid Casein Processed Cheese Sauces Obtained with Whey Proteins and Coconut Oil or Anhydrous Milk Fat. Foods 2021; 10:foods10040759.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate different fibers (acacia, bamboo, citrus or potato) on texture, rheological properties, color, density, and water activity of processed cheese sauces (PCS) based on acid casein, WPC80 and anhydrous milk fat or organic coconut oil. The interaction between the type of oil/fat, the fiber type and the fiber content was significant regarding almost all parameters studied. The computer vision system (CVS) showed that color changes of sauces could be noticeable by consumers. The main factor influencing the change in all products’ hardness was not fat/oil, but added fibers and their concentrations. The highest increase in hardness, adhesiveness and viscosity was observed in products with potato fiber. The value of storage modulus (G′) was higher than the loss modulus (G″) and tan (δ) < 1 for all samples. Different fibers and their amounts did not influence the water activity of cheese sauces obtained with organic coconut oil (OCO) or anhydrous milk fat (AMF).

Abstract
Reverse ecology is the inference of ecological information from patterns of genomic variation. One rich, heretofore underutilized, source of ecologically relevant genomic information is codon optimality or adaptation. Bias toward codons that match the tRNA pool is robustly associated with high gene expression in diverse organisms, suggesting that codon optimization could be used in a reverse ecology framework to identify highly expressed, ecologically relevant genes. To test this hypothesis, we examined the relationship between optimal codon usage in the classic galactose metabolism (GAL) pathway and known ecological niches for 329 species of budding yeasts, a diverse subphylum of fungi. We find that optimal codon usage in the GAL pathway is positively correlated with quantitative growth on galactose, suggesting that GAL codon optimization reflects increased capacity to grow on galactose. Optimal codon usage in the GAL pathway is also positively correlated with human-associated ecological niches in yeasts of the CUG-Ser1 clade and with dairy-associated ecological niches in the family Saccharomycetaceae. For example, optimal codon usage of GAL genes is greater than 85% of all genes in the genome of the major human pathogen Candida albicans (CUG-Ser1 clade) and greater than 75% of genes in the genome of the dairy yeast Kluyveromyces lactis (family Saccharomycetaceae). We further find a correlation between optimization in the GALactose pathway genes and several genes associated with nutrient sensing and metabolism. This work suggests that codon optimization harbors information about the metabolic ecology of microbial eukaryotes. This information may be particularly useful for studying fungal dark matter-species that have yet to be cultured in the lab or have only been identified by genomic material.

Abstract
In this study, yeasts isolated from filter membranes used for the quality control of bottled wines were identified and tested for their resistance to some cleaning agents and potassium metabisulphite, adhesion to polystyrene and stainless-steel surfaces, and formation of a thin round biofilm, referred to as a MAT. A total of 40 strains were identified by rRNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) restriction analysis and sequence analysis of D1/D2 domain of 26S rRNA gene. Strains belong to Pichia manshurica (12), Pichia kudriavzevii (9), Pichia membranifaciens (1), Candida sojae (6), Candida parapsilosis (3), Candida sonorensis (1), Lodderomyces elongisporus (2), Sporopachydermia lactativora (3), and Clavispora lusitaniae (3) species. Regarding the adhesion properties, differences were observed among species. Yeasts preferred planktonic state when tested on polystyrene plates. On stainless-steel supports, adhered cells reached values of about 6 log CFU/mL. MAT structures were formed only by yeasts belonging to the Pichia genus. Yeast species showed different resistance to sanitizers, with peracetic acid being the most effective and active at low concentrations, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 0.08% (v/v) to 1% (v/v). C. parapsilosis was the most sensible species. Data could be exploited to develop sustainable strategies to reduce wine contamination and establish tailored sanitizing procedures.

Abstract
Yarrowia clade contains yeast species morphologically, ecologically, physiologically and genetically diverse in nature. Yarrowia lipolytica NCIM 3590 (NCIM 3590), a biotechnologically important strain, isolated from Scottish sea waters was reinvestigated for its phenotypic, biochemical, molecular and genomic properties as it exhibited characteristics unlike Y. lipolytica, namely, absence of extracellular lipolytic activity, growth at lower temperatures (less than 20 °C) and in high salt concentrations (10% NaCl). Molecular identification using ITS and D1/D2 sequences suggested NCIM 3590 to be 100% identical with reference strain Yarrowia bubula CBS 12934 rather than Y. lipolytica CBS 6124 (87% identity) while phylogenetic analysis revealed that it clustered with Y. bubula under a separate clade. Further, whole genome sequencing of NCIM 3590 was performed using Illumina NextSeq technology and the draft reported here. The overall genome relatedness values obtained by dDDH (94.1%), ANIb/ANIm (99.41/99.42%) and OrthoANI (99.47%) indicated proximity between NCIM 3590 and CBS 12934 as compared to the reference strain Y. lipolytica. No extracellular lipase activity could be detected in NCIM 3590 while LIP2 gene TBLASTN analysis suggests a low 42% identity with e value 2 e−77 and 62% coverage. Hence molecular, phylogenetic, genomics, biochemical and microbial analyses suggests it belongs to Yarrowia bubula.

Abstract
Microbial food alterations lead to unfit products for consumption, and their discarding, to significant economic losses for the food industry. During storage, fresh foods offer available niches for the survival and growth of undesirable microorganisms. In dairy products, data regarding spoilage and/or pathogenic bacteria is better documented than those for molds and yeasts. Dairy products are less susceptible to mold's contamination than products such as fruits and vegetables, due to their refrigerated storage; their elaboration from heat-treated milk and, for fermented ones, the dominant microbiota that acidifies the medium. However, even cheeses and yogurts may be susceptible to mold contamination. Atypical cases of yogurt samples containing spoilage microorganisms not previously reported (molds producing gas and bacteria of the genus Gluconobacter) in Argentinean fermented milks are presented here. For yogurt, in particular, the "classic" altering organisms were always being yeasts, and in other countries, molds belonging to the genus Aspergillus.

Abstract
Packaging is an integral part of food industry that preserves the properties of food during storage. Food spoilage caused by foodborne microorganisms is a public health problem that imposes a significant burden on the healthcare systems. Moreover, packaging based on artificial and chemical materials such as plastic is destructive to the environment. Chitosan can be categorized as an active food packaging material because of its inherent antimicrobial properties and capacity to carry various active components. Combining chitosan and metallic nanoparticles can be used as a practical approach in antimicrobial packaging systems. This strategy has advantages of thermal stability, barrier properties, antioxidant and antimicrobial packaging. Titanium dioxide is one of these nanoparticles that plays a photocatalytic role by releasing reactive oxygen species, thereby leading to the destruction of microorganisms' cell wall and extension of food shelf life. This review elaborates on the antimicrobial applications of chitosan/titanium dioxide nanoparticles films in food packaging systems.

Abstract
Biopreservation is defined as using microbes, their constituents, or both to control spoilage while satisfying consumer demand for clean-label products. The study objective was to investigate the efficacy of bacterial cultures in biopreserving cottage cheese against postprocessing fungal contamination. Cottage cheese curd and dressing were sourced from a manufacturer in New York State. Dressing was inoculated with 3 different commercial protective cultures-PC1 (mix of Lacticaseibacillus spp. and Lactiplantibacillus spp.), PC2 (Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus), and PC3 (Lactic. rhamnosus)-following the manufacturer recommended dosage and then mixed with curd. A control with no protective culture was included. Nine species of yeast (Candida zeylanoides, Clavispora lusitaniae, Debaryomyces hansenii, Debaryomyces prosopidis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, Pichia fermentans, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, and Torulaspora delbrueckii) and 11 species of mold (Aspergillus cibarius, Aureobasidium pullulans, Penicillium chrysogenum, Penicillium citrinum, Penicillium commune, Penicillium decumbens, Penicillium roqueforti, Mucor genevensis, Mucor racemosus, Phoma dimorpha, and Trichoderma amazonicum) were included in the study. Fungi strains were previously isolated from dairy processing environments and were inoculated onto the cheese surface at a rate of 20 cfu/g. Cheese was stored at 6 ± 2°C. Yeast levels were enumerated at 0, 7, 14, and 21 d postinoculation. Mold growth was visually observed on a weekly basis through d 42 of storage and imaged. Overall, the protective cultures were limited in their ability to delay the outgrowth in cottage cheese, with only 8 of the 20 fungal strains showing an effect of the cultures compared with the control. The protective cultures were not very effective against yeast, with only PC1 able to delay the outgrowth of 3 strains: D. hansenii, Tor. delbrueckii, and Mey. guilliermondii. The efficacy of these protective cultures against molds in cottage cheese was more promising, with all protective cultures showing the ability to delay spoilage of at least 1 mold strain. Both PC1 and PC2 were able to delay Pen. chrysogenum and Pho. dimorpha outgrowth, and PC1 also delayed Pen. commune, Pen. decumbens, and Pen. roqueforti to different extents compared with the controls. This study demonstrates that commercial lactic acid bacteria cultures vary in their performance to delay mold and yeast outgrowth, and thus each protective culture should be evaluated against the specific strains of fungi of concern within each specific dairy facility.

Abstract
Abstract Different types of microorganisms are important in cheese-making because of the contributions their metabolism offers during the process. Few microorganisms present in Colonial cheese are known, in addition to the ones that are introduced to kick-start the processes or the ones that are associated with infections or poisonings. This study aimed to identify, by MALDI-TOF and/or DNA sequencing, the bacteria and yeasts isolated from samples collected in the main stages of Colonial cheese production, i.e., a type of cheese produced in the southern region of Brazil. The lytic capacity of these microorganisms at 5 °C and 30 °C was also evaluated. The 58 bacterial strains were distributed in 10 species among the genera Bacillus, Citrobacter, Klebsiella, Lactococcus, Paenibacillus, Staphylococcus and Raoutella. From the 13 yeasts strains analyzed, three species were identified as following: Candida pararugosa; Meyerozyma guilliermondii; and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. In three yeasts isolates it was possible to identify only the genus Candida sp. and Trichosporon sp. The species L. lactis (48%) and M. guilliermondii (46%) were, respectively, the predominant bacteria and yeasts species isolated. The highest microbial lytic activity observed was at 30 °C. Lipase activity on isolates was proportionally more observed with yeasts and proteolytic activity with bacteria. Lower caseinase and lipase activity was observed at 5 °C, demonstrating the importance of refrigeration in controlling microbial activity. This research highlighted the cultivation of some microorganisms that are part of the Colonial cheese microbiota as well as that several of them can hydrolyze various compounds present in milk and that could be associated with its maturation or, in uncontrolled circumstances, could be the cause of product deterioration.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the physiological state and intraspecific variability on the efficacy of 70% ethanol to inactivate conidia of Penicillium commune, used as a representative species of dairy product contaminants. Four physiological states were obtained by modifying the water activity during the production of conidia (0.995 and 0.950) and the harvesting conditions (hydrated and non-hydrated). These conditions were applied to four different P. commune strains isolated from contaminated dairy products. Five minutes exposure to 70% ethanol at ambient temperature allowed total inactivation of conidia (>4 log10) regardless of the physiological state or the strain. For 1 min exposure, regardless of the strains, only dry-harvested conidia produced at aw 0.950 exhibited survivors. Survival after 2 min exposure was observed for this physiological state for P. commune UBOCC-A-116003 only. For this strain, the impact of the physiological state was greater than 1.54 log10 between dry-harvested conidia produced at aw 0.950 that exhibited survivors after 1 min treatment and the 3 other kinds of conidia that were all inactivated. For 1 min exposure, by comparing the more resistant strain to the three other strains, the impact of the intraspecific variability was 2.35 log10. These results demonstrated that the physiological state of the conidia, the representativeness of the tested species and strains should be taken into account to assess the efficacy of disinfectants in dairies.

Occurrence of Yeasts in White-Brined Cheeses: Methodologies for Identification, Spoilage Potential and Good Manufacturing Practices. Front Microbiol 2020; 11:582778.

Abstract
Yeasts are generally recognized as contaminants in the production of white-brined cheeses, such as Feta and Feta-type cheeses. The most predominant yeasts species are Debaryomyces hansenii, Geotrichum candidum, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Kluyveromyces lactis, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, and Trichosporon spp. Although their spoilage potential varies at both species and strain levels, yeasts will, in case of excessive growth, present a microbiological hazard, effecting cheese quality. To evaluate the hazard and trace routes of contamination, the exact taxonomic classification of yeasts is required. Today, identification of dairy yeasts is mainly based on DNA sequencing, various genotyping techniques, and, to some extent, advanced phenotypic identification technologies. Even though these technologies are state of the art at the scientific level, they are only hardly implemented at the industrial level. Quality defects, caused by yeasts in white-brined cheese, are mainly linked to enzymatic activities and metabolism of fermentable carbohydrates, leading to production of metabolites (CO2, fatty acids, volatile compounds, amino acids, sulfur compounds, etc.) and resulting in off-flavors, texture softening, discoloration, and swelling of cheese packages. The proliferation of spoilage yeast depends on maturation and storage conditions at each specific dairy, product characteristics, nutrients availability, and interactions with the co-existing microorganisms. To prevent and control yeast contamination, different strategies based on the principles of HACCP and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) have been introduced in white-brined cheese production. These strategies include milk pasteurization, refrigeration, hygienic sanitation, air filtration, as well as aseptic and modified atmosphere packaging. Though a lot of research has been dedicated to yeasts in dairy products, the role of yeast contaminants, specifically in white-brined cheeses, is still insufficiently understood. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge on the identification of contaminant yeasts in white-brined cheeses, their occurrence and spoilage potential related to different varieties of white-brined cheeses, their interactions with other microorganisms, as well as guidelines used by dairies to prevent cheese contamination.

Domestication of the Emblematic White Cheese-Making Fungus Penicillium camemberti and Its Diversification into Two Varieties. Curr Biol 2020; 30:4441-4453.e4. [PMID: 32976806 DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.08.082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Domestication involves recent adaptation under strong human selection and rapid diversification and therefore constitutes a good model for studies of these processes. We studied the domestication of the emblematic white mold Penicillium camemberti, used for the maturation of soft cheeses, such as Camembert and Brie, about which surprisingly little was known, despite its economic and cultural importance. Whole-genome-based analyses of genetic relationships and diversity revealed that an ancient domestication event led to the emergence of the gray-green P. biforme mold used in cheese making, by divergence from the blue-green wild P. fuscoglaucum fungus. Another much more recent domestication event led to the generation of the P. camemberti clonal lineage as a sister group to P. biforme. Penicillium biforme displayed signs of phenotypic adaptation to cheese making relative to P. fuscoglaucum, in terms of whiter color, faster growth on cheese medium under cave conditions, lower amounts of toxin production, and greater ability to prevent the growth of other fungi. The P. camemberti lineage displayed even stronger signs of domestication for all these phenotypic features. We also identified two differentiated P. camemberti varieties, apparently associated with different kinds of cheeses and with contrasted phenotypic features in terms of color, growth, toxin production, and competitive ability. We have thus identified footprints of domestication in these fungi, with genetic differentiation between cheese and wild populations, bottlenecks, and specific phenotypic traits beneficial for cheese making. This study has not only fundamental implications for our understanding of domestication but can also have important effects on cheese making.

Use of chitosan and tannins as alternatives to antibiotics to control mold growth on PDO Pecorino Toscano cheese rind. Food Microbiol 2020; 92:103598. [PMID: 32950139 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2020.103598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 07/17/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
The fungal microbiota usually growing on the cheese surface during ripening processes promote rind formation and the development of organoleptic characteristics, imparting positive sensory attributes to cheeses. As cheese contamination may also occur by undesirable molds, specific actions for preventing their growth are usually realized in dairy industries by using the antibiotic natamycin, which may represent a risk factor for human health and environmental sustainability. Here, agroindustrial by-products with natural antimicrobial properties, i.e. tannins and chitosan, were tested in a cheese-making trial producing PDO Tuscan pecorino cheese. Morphological and molecular methods revealed that the main components of rind fungal communities of PDO Tuscan pecorino cheese were represented by P. solitum, P. discolour and P. verrucosum. The use of chitosan on cheese rinds did not significantly affect the composition of rind fungal communities developing during the whole ripening process compared with controls treated with natamycin, whose numbers ranged from 3.4 ± 1.3 × 103 to 3.2 ± 1.8 × 104 and from 6.3 ± 3.5 × 102 to 4.0 ± 1.5 × 104, respectively. Overall, grape marc tannins and chitosan did not significantly affect the number and composition of fungal communities developing during PDO Pecorino Toscano cheese ripening, as well as its physical, chemical and nutritional profiles, showing that they may represent effective alternatives to the antibiotic natamycin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to determine the composition and diversity of the fungal flora at various control points in cheese ripening rooms of 10 dairy farms from six different provinces in the Republic of Korea. METHODS Floor, wall, cheese board, room air, cheese rind and core were sampled from cheese ripening rooms of ten different dairy farms. The molds were enumerated using YM petrifilm, while isolation was done on yeast extract glucose chloramphenicol agar plates. Morphologically distinct isolates were identified using sequencing of internal transcribed spacer region. RESULTS The fungal counts in 8 out of 10 dairy farms were out of acceptable range, as per hazard analysis critical control point regulation. A total of 986 fungal isolates identified and assigned to the phyla Ascomycota (14 genera) and Basidiomycota (3 genera). Of these Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Cladosporium were the most diverse and predominant. The cheese ripening rooms was overrepresented in 9 farms by Penicillium (76%), while Aspergillusin a single farm. Among 39 species, the prominent members were Penicillium commune, P. oxalicum, P. echinulatum, and Aspergillus versicolor. Most of the mold species detected on surfaces were the same found in the indoor air of cheese ripening rooms. CONCLUSION The environment of cheese ripening rooms persuades a favourable niche for mold growth. The fungal diversity in the dairy farms were greatly influenced by several factors (exterior atmosphere, working personnel etc.,) and their proportion varied from one to another. Proper management of hygienic and production practices and air filtration system would be effective to eradicate contamination in cheese processing industries.

Assessment of Spoilage Bacterial Communities in Food Wrap and Modified Atmospheres-Packed Minced Pork Meat Samples by 16S rDNA Metagenetic Analysis. Front Microbiol 2020; 10:3074. [PMID: 32038536 PMCID: PMC6985204 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.03074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2019] [Accepted: 12/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Although several studies have focused on the dynamics of bacterial food community, little is known about the variability of batch production and microbial changes that occur during storage. The aim of the study was to characterize the microbial spoilage community of minced pork meat samples, among different food production and storage, using both 16S rRNA gene sequencing and classical microbiology. Three batches of samples were obtained from four local Belgian facilities (A–D) and stored until shelf life under food wrap (FW) and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP, CO2 30%/O2 70%), at constant and dynamic temperature. Analysis of 288 samples were performed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing in combination with counts of psychrotrophic and lactic acid bacteria at 22°C. At the first day of storage, different psychrotrophic counts were observed between the four food companies (Kruskal-Wallist test, p-value < 0.05). Results shown that lowest microbial counts were observed at the first day for industries D and A (4.2 ± 0.4 and 5.6 ± 0.1 log CFU/g, respectively), whereas industries B and C showed the highest results (7.5 ± 0.4 and 7.2 ± 0.4 log CFU/g). At the end of the shelf life, psychrotrophic counts for all food companies was over 7.0 log CFU/g. With metagenetics, 48 OTUs were assigned. At the first day, the genus Photobacterium (86.7 and 19.9% for food industries A and C, respectively) and Pseudomonas (38.7 and 25.7% for food companies B and D, respectively) were dominant. During the storage, a total of 12 dominant genera (>5% in relative abundance) were identified in MAP and 7 in FW. Pseudomonas was more present in FW and this genus was potentially replaced by Brochothrix in MAP (two-sided Welch’s t-test, p-value < 0.05). Also, a high Bray-Curtis dissimilarity in genus relative abundance was observed between food companies and batches. Although the bacteria consistently dominated the microbiota in our samples are known, results indicated that bacterial diversity needs to be addressed on the level of food companies, batches variation and food storage conditions. Present data illustrate that the combined approach provides complementary results on microbial dynamics in minced pork meat samples, considering batches and packaging variations.

Abstract
The increasing global population has resulted in increased demand for food. Goods quality and safe food is required for healthy living. However, food spoilage has resulted in food insecurity in different regions of the world. Spoilage of food occurs when the quality of food deteriorates from its original organoleptic properties observed at the time of processing. Food spoilage results in huge economic losses to both producers (farmers) and consumers. Factors such as storage temperature, pH, water availability, presence of spoilage microorganisms including bacteria and fungi, initial microbial load (total viable count-TVC), and processing influence the rate of food spoilage. This article reviews the spoilage microbiota and spoilage mechanisms in meat and dairy products and seafood. Understanding food spoilage mechanisms will assist in the development of robust technologies for the prevention of food spoilage and waste.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to determine the inhibitory effect of vapor phase of five essential oils (EOs) on the growth of seven strains of Penicillium commune isolated from moldy milk products. Another objective was to determine the minimum inhibitory doses (in vitro and probit analyses) of EOs, which at concentration 625 μL.L-1 of air completely inhibited the growth of all strains. The antifungal activity was evaluated by the micro-atmosphere method. The essential oils used in this study were extract of plants from family Myrtaceae. Only one essential oil – clove (from Syzygium aromaticum L.; leaves) completely inhibited the growth of all strains during cultivation at 25 °C and 5 °C. Eucalyptus essential oil (from Eucaliptus globulus; leaves), tea tree essential oil (from Melaleuca alternifolia Cheel; leaves), cajeput essential oil (from Melaleuca leucadendra L.; leaves and twigs), niaouli essential oil (from Melaleuca quinquenervia (Cav.) S.T.Blake; leaves) have different effects on the growth of P. commune strains. The order of tested essential oils according to the inhibition effect on the growth of the strains of P. commune (from the strongest to the weakest effect) was: clove > tea tree > cajeput > niaouli > eucalyptus. Clove EO that completely inhibited the growth of all strains was used to determine minimum inhibitory doses (MIDs). The MIDs were 125 µL.L-1 of air for two strains of P. commune and 250 µL.L-1 of air for five strains of P. commune on the 7th and 14th day of cultivation, also. Using probit analysis, predicted MIDs90 and MIDs50 were calculated. The MIDs90 were determined from 104.93 to 301.37 µL.L-1 of air.
