Abstract
Yeasts are an important group of microorganisms and contribute to the fermentation of a broad range of foods and beverages spontaneously or as a starter culture. Rapid and reliable microbial species identification is essential to evaluate biodiversity in fermented foods and beverages. Nowadays, high-throughput omics technologies and bioinformatics tools produce large-scale molecular-level data in many fields. These omics technologies generate data at different expression levels and are used to identify microorganisms. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is a powerful analytical technique in proteomic technology. It is a tool used to analyze the peptides or proteins of microorganisms for identification. MALDI-TOF MS has been used for the taxonomic identification of microorganisms as a fast, high-throughput, and cost-effective method. This review briefly discussed the application of MALDI-TOF MS in identifying yeasts in fermented foods and beverages.

Predictive Potential of MALDI-TOF Analyses for Wine and Brewing Yeast. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10020265.

Abstract
The potential of MALDI-TOF profiling for predicting potential applications of yeast strains in the beverage sector was assessed. A panel of 59 commercial yeasts (47 wine and 12 brewing yeasts) was used to validate the concept whereby 2 culture media (YPD agar and YPD broth), as well as two mass ranges m/z 500–4000 and m/z 2000–20,000, were evaluated for the best fit. Three machine learning-based algorithms, PCA, MDS, and UMAP, in addition to a hierarchical clustering method, were employed. Profiles derived from broth cultures yielded more peaks, but these were less well-defined compared with those from agar cultures. Hierarchical clustering more clearly resolved different species and gave a broad overview of potential strain utility, but more nuanced insights were provided by MDS and UMAP analyses. PCA-based displays were less informative. The potential of MALDI-TOF proteomics in predicting the utility of yeast strains of commercial benefit is supported in this study, provided appropriate approaches are used for data generation and analysis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Chicha morada, also known as purple corn drink (PCD), is a traditional noncarbonated beverage commonly prepared at homes and restaurants in Peru. However, in recent years, it is being produced at an industrial scale aiming to extend its shelf life, expand its marketing, and make it known worldwide. Traditionally, this beverage, whose main component is purple corn (Zea mays L.), was made and consumed quickly and in some cases, stored under refrigeration until consumption, but never beyond 24 to 48 h. With its industrialization, factories are presented with challenges to design and provide adequate protection of the beverage, assuring its quality and safety. Although its production at an industrial level is similar to that of other noncarbonated drinks containing fruit juice, several processing factors could affect the microbiological stability desired for this beverage, such as the storage of the purple corn drink extract. In this document, a critical review of the production process (raw materials, production stages, and forms of commercialization) that can directly affect the contamination of the beverage is made. Recommendations are made for improving the control points in the industrial process and to avoid potential microbiological problems. HIGHLIGHTS

Abstract
Over the course of human history and in most societies, fermented beverages have had a unique economic and cultural importance. Before the arrival of the first Europeans in Australia, Aboriginal people reportedly produced several fermented drinks including mangaitch from flowering cones of Banksia and way-a-linah from Eucalyptus tree sap. In the case of more familiar fermented beverages, numerous microorganisms, including fungi, yeast and bacteria, present on the surface of fruits and grains are responsible for the conversion of the sugars in these materials into ethanol. Here we describe native microbial communities associated with the spontaneous fermentation of sap from the cider gum Eucalyptus gunnii, a Eucalyptus tree native to the remote Central Plateau of Tasmania. Amplicon-based phylotyping showed numerous microbial species in cider gum samples, with fungal species differing greatly to those associated with winemaking. Phylotyping also revealed several fungal sequences which do not match known fungal genomes suggesting novel yeast species. These findings highlight the vast microbial diversity associated with the Australian Eucalyptus gunnii and the native alcoholic beverage way-a-linah.

Abstract
Peruvian chicha de jora is one of the most ancient traditional beverages produced through maize fermentation, still popular to modern consumers, but less studied in terms of microbial compositions. In this work, the bacterial biodiversity of 27 chicha samples collected from 14 different "chicherias" in seven provinces of Peru was investigated by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). A large dissimilarity in chicha microbial composition was a direct consequence of ingredients, manufacturing processes and geographical influences. The core microbiome was represented by six main genera, belonging to Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) and Acetic Acid Bacteria (AAB). Lactobacillus prevailed (more than 50% of sequences belong to this genus) followed by Weissella, Leuconostoc, Lactococcus and Streptococcus. Acetobacter was the only AAB genus identified in chicha. The occurrence of sequences associated to spoiling and pathogenic bacteria, such as Bacillus, Clostridium, and Enterobacteriaceae, was observed only in a few samples, validating the safety of this beverage. Predictive functional annotation of metagenomic sequences revealed that carbohydrate and amino acid metabolisms and coenzyme transport are the main KEGG categories associated to chicha fermentation pathways. The old recipes and traditional processing of each chicherias helps maintain native microorganisms as a resource of biodiversity with potential technological and health-beneficial properties.

Abstract
The burgeoning interest in archaic, traditional, and novel beer styles has coincided with a growing appreciation of the role of yeasts in determining beer character as well as a better understanding of the ecology and biogeography of yeasts. Multiple studies in recent years have highlighted the potential of wild Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts for production of beers with novel flavour profiles and other desirable properties. Yeasts isolated from spontaneously fermented beers as well as from other food systems (wine, bread, and kombucha) have shown promise for brewing application, and there is evidence that such cross-system transfers have occurred naturally in the past. We review here the available literature pertaining to the use of nonconventional yeasts in brewing, with a focus on the origins of these yeasts, including methods of isolation. Practical aspects of utilizing nondomesticated yeasts are discussed, and modern methods to facilitate discovery of yeasts with brewing potential are highlighted.

Abstract
For a long time, food microbiota has been studied using traditional microbiological techniques. With the arrival of molecular or culture-independent techniques, a strong understanding of microbiota dynamics has been achieved. However, analyzing the functional role of microbial communities is not an easy task. The application of omics sciences to the study of fermented foods would provide the metabolic and functional understanding of the microbial communities and their impact on the fermented product, including the molecules that define its aroma and flavor, as well as its nutritional properties. Until now, most omics studies have focused on commercial fermented products, such as cheese, wine, bread and beer, but traditional fermented foods have been neglected. Therefore, the information that allows to relate the present microbiota in the food and its properties remains limited. In this review, reports on the applications of omics in the study of traditional fermented foods and beverages are reviewed to propose new ways to analyze the fermentation phenomena.

Abstract
Fungal spoilage of products manufactured by the food and beverage industry imposes significant annual global revenue losses. Mould spoilage can also be a food safety issue due to the production of mycotoxins by these moulds. To prevent mould spoilage, it is essential that the associated mycobiota be adequately isolated and accurately identified. The main fungal groups associated with spoilage are the xerophilic, heat-resistant, preservative-resistant, anaerobic and psychrophilic fungi. To assess mould spoilage, the appropriate methodology and media must be used. While classic mycological detection methods can detect a broad range of fungi using well validated protocols, they are time consuming and results can take days or even weeks. New molecular detection methods are faster but require good DNA isolation techniques, expensive equipment and may detect viable and non-viable fungi that probably will not spoil a specific product. Although there is no complete and easy method for the detection of fungi in food it is important to be aware of the limitation of the methodology. More research is needed on the development of methods of detection and identification that are both faster and highly sensitive.

Temporal and Spatial Distribution of the Acetic Acid Bacterium Communities throughout the Wooden Casks Used for the Fermentation and Maturation of Lambic Beer Underlines Their Functional Role.

Abstract
Few data have been published on the occurrence and functional role of acetic acid bacteria (AAB) in lambic beer production processes, mainly due to their difficult recovery and possibly unknown role. Therefore, a novel aseptic sampling method, spanning both the spatial and temporal distributions of the AAB and their substrates and metabolites, was combined with a highly selective medium and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) as a high-throughput dereplication method followed by comparative gene sequencing for their isolation and identification, respectively. The AAB (Acetobacter species more than Gluconobacter species) proliferated during two phases of the lambic beer production process, represented by Acetobacter orientalis during a few days in the beginning of the fermentation and Acetobacter pasteurianus from 7 weeks until 24 months of maturation. Competitive exclusion tests combined with comparative genomic analysis of all genomes of strains of both species available disclosed possible reasons for this successive dominance. The spatial analysis revealed that significantly higher concentrations of acetic acid (from ethanol) and acetoin (from lactic acid) were produced at the tops of the casks, due to higher AAB counts and a higher metabolic activity of the AAB species at the air/liquid interface during the first 6 months of lambic beer production. In contrast, no differences in AAB species diversity occurred throughout the casks.IMPORTANCE Lambic beer is an acidic beer that is the result of a spontaneous fermentation and maturation process. Acidic beers are currently attracting attention worldwide. Part of the acidity of these beers is caused by acetic acid bacteria (AAB). However, due to their difficult recovery, they were never investigated extensively regarding their occurrence, species diversity, and functional role in lambic beer production. In the present study, a framework was developed for their isolation and identification using a novel aseptic sampling method in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry as a high-throughput dereplication technique followed by accurate molecular identification. The sampling method applied enabled us to take spatial differences into account regarding both enumerations and metabolite production. In this way, it was shown that more AAB were present and more acetic acid was produced at the air/liquid interface during a major part of the lambic beer production process. Also, two different AAB species were encountered, namely, Acetobacter orientalis at the beginning and Acetobacter pasteurianus in a later stage of the production process. This developed framework could also be applied for other fermentation processes.

Abstract
Chicha, a type of beer made mainly with maize or cassava, is a traditional fermented beverage of the Andean region. There have only been a few studies on yeasts associated with chicha fermentation, and the species diversity occurring during the production of this beverage is not known. The objective of this study was to determine the biodiversity of yeasts in chicha, and to characterize the Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations associated with the production of chicha de jora, seven-grain chicha, chicha de yuca, and chicha de morocho in Ecuador. The molecular diversity of S. cerevisiae populations was determined by restriction polymorphism mitochondrial profiles. The beverages were characterized based on their physicochemical parameters. Twenty-six species were identified, and the most prevalent species were S. cerevisiae and Torulaspora delbrueckii. Other yeast species were isolated at low frequencies. Among 121 isolates of S. cerevisiae, 68 different mtDNA molecular profiles were identified. These results showed that chichas are fermented by a high number of different strains of S. cerevisiae. Some other species provided a minor contribution to the fermentation process. The chicha presented generally similar physicochemical parameters to those observed for other traditional fermented beverages, and can be considered as an acid fermented beverage.

Abstract
Culturalable and non-culturable microorganisms naturally ferment majority of global fermented foods and beverages. Traditional food fermentation represents an extremely valuable cultural heritage in most regions, and harbors a huge genetic potential of valuable but hitherto undiscovered strains. Holistic approaches for identification and complete profiling of both culturalable and non-culturable microorganisms in global fermented foods are of interest to food microbiologists. The application of culture-independent technique has thrown new light on the diversity of a number of hitherto unknown and non-cultural microorganisms in naturally fermented foods. Functional bacterial groups ("phylotypes") may be reflected by their mRNA expression in a particular substrate and not by mere DNA-level detection. An attempt has been made to review the microbiology of some fermented foods and alcoholic beverages of the world.

Caturegli G, Caturegli P. Disease prevalence in a rural Andean population of central Peru: a focus on autoimmune and allergic diseases. AUTOIMMUNITY HIGHLIGHTS 2016; 7:3. [PMID: 26861900 PMCID: PMC4749512 DOI: 10.1007/s13317-016-0076-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2015] [Accepted: 01/19/2016] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Introduction
The hygiene hypothesis, formulated to explain the increased incidence of allergic and autoimmune diseases observed in industrialized countries, remains controversial. We reflected upon this hypothesis during a medical mission to rural and impoverished villages of central Peru. Materials and methods
The mission was carried out in July 2015 to aid three Andean villages located near Cusco, and comprised 10 American physicians, 4 nurses, and 24 students. After recording the vital signs, patients were triaged by nurses based on the major complaint, visited by physicians, and prescribed medications. Physicians wrote their notes on a one-page form and established diagnoses purely on clinical grounds, without laboratory or imaging testing. Physician notes were then analyzed retrospectively in a de-identified and double-blinded fashion. Results A total of 1075 patients (357 men and 718 women) were visited during 5 consecutive clinic days, 840 being adults and 235 <18 years of age. The most common complaints were back pain, stomach pain, headache, and vision loss. Osteoarthritis, gastritis, visual disturbances, and parasitic infections dominated the diagnostic categories. Thirty-seven patients (3 %) were diagnosed with an allergic or autoimmune disease, mainly represented by asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, a prevalence that was not significantly lower than that reported in industrialized countries. Conclusions Although a study of this nature cannot definitively support or refute the hygiene hypothesis, it does provide a novel snapshot of disease prevalence in rural Andean villages of central Peru. The study could serve as a basis to implement basic public health interventions and prepare for future missions to the same or comparable regions.

Puerari C, Magalhães-Guedes KT, Schwan RF. Bacaba beverage produced by Umutina Brazilian Amerindians: Microbiological and chemical characterization. Braz J Microbiol 2015; 46:1207-16. [PMID: 26691483 PMCID: PMC4704630 DOI: 10.1590/s1517-838246420140964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2014] [Accepted: 03/30/2015] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacaba chicha is a beverage prepared by the indigenous Umutina people from the bacaba fruit (Oenocarpus bacaba), a purple berry that is rich in fat and carbohydrates, as well as a source of phenolic compounds. In this study, samples of bacaba chicha beverage were collected, and the microbial community was assessed using culture-dependent and -independent techniques. The nutritional composition and metabolite profiles were analyzed, and species belonging to lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts were detected. The LAB group detected by culture-dependent analysis included Enterococcus hormaechei and Leuconostoc lactis. Polymerase chain reaction and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) detected additional Propionibacterium avidum, Acetobacter spp., and uncultured bacteria. Pichia caribbica and Pichia guilliermondii were detected in a culture-dependent method, and Pichia caribbica was confirmed by PCR-DGGE analysis. The pH value of the beverage was 6.2. The nutritional composition was as follows: 16.47 ± 0.73 g 100 mL-1 dry matter, 2.2 ± 0.0 g 100 mL-1 fat, 3.36 ± 0.44 g 100 mL-1 protein, and 10.87 ± 0.26 g 100 mL-1 carbohydrate. The metabolites detected were 2.69 g L-1 succinic acid, 0.9 g L-1 acetic acid, 0.49 g L-1 citric acid, 0.52 g L-1 ethanol, and 0.4 g L-1 glycerol. This is the first study to identify microbial diversity in bacaba chicha spontaneous fermentation. This study is also the starting step in the immaterial record of this Brazilian indigenous beverage prepared from bacaba fruit.
