Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production ability of 20 Lactobacillus and 25 Bifidobacterium strains which were previously isolated in our laboratory. Effect of initial pH, incubation time, monosodium glutamate (MSG), and pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP) concentration for highest GABA production by two potent bacterial strains, Levilactobacillus brevis LAB6 and Limosilactobacillus fermentum LAB19 were optimized in the MRS media. A threefold increase in GABA production at an initial pH 4.0, incubation time of 120 h in medium supplemented with 3% MSG and 400 μM of PLP for LAB6 and 300 μM for LAB19 lead to the production of 19.67 ± 0.28 and 20.77 ± 0.14 g/L of GABA, respectively. Coculturing both strains under optimized conditions led to a GABA yield of 20.02 ± 0.17 g/L. Owing to potent anti-inflammatory activity in-vitro, as reported previously, and highest GABA production ability of LAB6 (MTCC 25662), its whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis was carried out for mining genes related to GABA metabolism. LAB6 harbored a complete glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) gene system comprising gadA, gadB, and gadC as well as genes responsible for the beneficial probiotic traits, such as for acid and bile tolerance and host adhesion. Comparative genomic analysis of LAB6 with 28 completely sequenced Levilactobacillus brevis strains revealed the presence of 95 strain-specific genes-families that was significantly higher than most other L. brevis strains.

Front Microbiol 2024; 15:1333538. [PMID: 38374919 PMCID: PMC10876094 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1333538] [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: 11/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
In order to produce fermented bamboo shoots with functional properties, two strains of lactic acid bacteria were selected for inoculation and fermentation. One strain, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum R1, exhibited prominent potential probiotic properties (including gastrointestinal condition tolerance, adhesion ability, antimicrobial ability, and antibiotic resistance), while the other, Levilactobacillus brevis R2, demonstrated the capability of high γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production (913.99 ± 14.2 mg/L). The synergistic inoculation of both strains during bamboo shoot fermentation led to a remarkable increase in GABA content (382.31 ± 12.17 mg/kg), surpassing that of naturally fermented bamboo shoots by more than 4.5 times and outperforming mono-inoculated fermentation. Simultaneously, the nitrite content was maintained at a safe level (5.96 ± 1.81 mg/kg). Besides, inoculated fermented bamboo shoots exhibited an increased crude fiber content (16.58 ± 0.04 g/100 g) and reduced fat content (0.39 ± 0.02 g/100 g). Sensory evaluation results indicated a high overall acceptability for the synergistically inoculated fermented bamboo shoots. This study may provide a strategy for the safe and rapid fermentation of bamboo shoots and lay the groundwork for the development of functional vegetable products enriched with GABA.

Indian J Microbiol 2023; 63:467-482. [PMID: 38031599 PMCID: PMC10682332 DOI: 10.1007/s12088-023-01101-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) has diverse physiological functions, but its production by lactic acid bacteria is costly due to the culture medium. This study aimed to enhance GABA production by L. futsaii CS3 using low-cost substrates and agri-food industries by-products. Optimal culture conditions were determined using response surface methodology with a central composite design (CCD). Batch and fed-batch fermentation techniques were employed. In the MRS medium with 2% (w/v) monosodium glutamate (MSG), L. futsaii CS3 produced 6.84 g/l of GABA. Further optimization revealed that 2% (w/v) cane sugar resulted in a maximum GABA production of 9.6 g/l, while cane molasses yielded 7.4 g/l. The modified MRS medium with 2% (w/v) MSG, 2% (w/v) cane sugar, 3.06% (w/v) tuna condensate, and 2.5% (w/v) surimi washing water exhibited the highest GABA concentration of 11 g/l. Surimi washing water had a lower GABA concentration of 4.12 g/l. Critical factors identified through CCD analysis were cane sugar, tuna condensate, and MSG. The optimized modified MRS medium consisted of 3.48% (w/v) cane sugar, 3.84% (w/v) tuna condensate, and 10.77% (w/v) MSG, resulting in an actual GABA concentration of 18.27 g/l. Under flask-scale and batch fermentation conditions (initial pH 5, temperature 37 °C), GABA concentrations of 20.63 g/l and 17.24 g/l were obtained after 48 h, respectively. In fed-batch fermentation, GABA concentrations reached 23.01 g/l at 72 h. The addition of cane sugar and tuna condensate effectively enhanced GABA production in L. futsaii CS3, highlighting their suitability as cost-effective substrates for industrial-scale GABA production.

Abstract
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an important nonprotein amino acid that extensively exists in nature. At present, GABA is mainly obtained through chemical synthesis, plant enrichment, and microbial production, among which microbial production has received widespread attention due to its safety and environmental benefits. After using microbial fermentation to obtain GABA, it is necessary to be isolated and purified to ensure its quality and suitability for various industries such as food, agriculture, livestock, pharmaceutics, and others. This article provides a comprehensive review of the different sources of GABA, including its presence in nature and the synthesis methods. The factors affecting the production of microbial-derived GABA and its isolation and purification methods are further elucidated. Moreover, the main physiological functions of GABA and its application in different fields are also reviewed. By advancing our understanding of GABA, we can unlock its full potential and further utilize it in various fields to improve human health and well-being.

[PMID: 37628033 PMCID: PMC10453537 DOI: 10.3390/foods12163034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a widely available non-protein amino acid whose physiological importance goes beyond its role as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in mammals. The GABA synthesis ability of ten strains of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum was screened. They produced GABA ranging from 48.19 ± 3.44 to 100.75 ± 1.63 mg/L at 24 h-cultivation. Among them, Lp. plantarum FRT7 showed the highest GABA production. Therefore, FRT7 was chosen for GABA yield optimization. A one-factor-at-a-time strategy analysis of the GABA yield of FRT7 was performed, including the culture temperature, incubation time, inoculum volume, initial pH, the initial amount of monosodium glutamate (MSG), and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentration, based on which the response surface methodology (RSM) was performed. After being cultured in an MRS culture medium supplemented with 3% MSG and 2 mmol/L of PLP at 40 °C with an initial pH of 7.0 for 48 h, the GABA reached a maximum yield of 1158.6 ± 21.22 mg/L. The results showed the experimental value of the GABA yield was in good agreement with the predicted values. Furthermore, the results from the RSM also indicated that the initial MSG addition, PLP concentration, and incubation time were significant variables. These results suggest that Lp. plantarum FRT7 has the potential to be a health-beneficial probiotic with commercial capabilities.

Multifunctional Nutraceutical Composition Based on Fermented Spirulina, Apple Cider Vinegar, Jerusalem Artichoke, and Bovine Colostrum. Foods 2023; 12:foods12081690. [PMID: 37107485 PMCID: PMC10138001 DOI: 10.3390/foods12081690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The main purpose of this experiment was to develop a multifunctional nutraceutical composition based on ingredients of different origins (Spirulina powder (SP), bovine colostrum (BC), Jerusalem artichoke powder (JAP), and apple cider vinegar (ACV)) which possess different health benefits through their different mechanisms of action. In order to improve the functional properties of Spirulina and bovine colostrum, fermentation with the Pediococcus acidilactici No. 29 and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei LUHS244 strains, respectively, was carried out. These LAB strains were chosen due to their good antimicrobial properties. The following parameters were analysed: for Spirulina (non-treated and fermented)-pH, colour coordinates, fatty acid profile, and contents of L-glutamic and GABA acids; for bovine colostrum (non-treated and fermented)-pH, colour coordinates, dry matter, and microbiological parameters (total LAB, total bacteria, total enterobacteria, Escherichia coli, and mould/yeast counts); for the produced nutraceuticals-hardness, colour coordinates, and overall acceptability. It was established that fermentation reduced the pH of the SP and BC and affected their colour coordinates. Fermented SP contained a greater concentration of gamma-aminobutyric and L-glutamic acids (by 5.2 times and 31.4% more, respectively), compared to the non-treated SP and BC. In addition, the presence of gamma-linolenic and omega-3 fatty acids was observed in fermented SP. Fermentation of BC reduces Escherichia coli, total bacteria, total enterobacteria, and total mould/yeast counts in samples. The obtained three-layer nutraceutical (I layer-fermented SP; II-fermented BC and JAP; III-ACV) demonstrated a high overall acceptability. Finally, our finding suggest that the selected nutraceutical combination has immense potential in the production of a multifunctional product with improved functionality and a high acceptability.

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
Lactic acid bacteria represent a worthwhile organism within the microbial consortium for the food sector, health, and biotechnological applications. They tend to offer high stability to environmental conditions, with an indicated increase in product yield, alongside their moderate antimicrobial activity. Lack of endotoxins and inclusion bodies, extracellular secretion, and surface display with other unique properties, are all winning attributes of these Gram-positive lactic acid bacteria, of which, Pediococcus is progressively becoming an attractive and promising host, as the next-generation probiotic comparable with other well-known model systems. Here, we presented the biotechnological developments in Pediococcal bacteriocin expression system, contemporary variegated models of Pediococcus and lactic acid bacteria strains as microbial cell factory, most recent applications as possible live delivery vector for use as therapeutics, as well as upsurging challenges and future perspective. With the radical introduction of artificial intelligence and neural network in Synthetic Biology, the microbial usage of lactic acid bacteria as an alternative eco-friendly strain, with safe use properties compared with the already known conventional strains is expected to see an increase in various food and biotechnological applications in years to come as it offers better hope of safety, accuracy, and higher efficiency.

Abstract
The aim of the research was to check how the addition of honeydew honey and various compositions of starter cultures affects the water holding capacity, water activity, color, syneresis and consistency of the obtained kefir in the context of its sensory acceptability. In this research, 2.5% and 5% (w/w) honeydew honey was added to the samples of model kefir (K) and commercial kefir (K13). Kefirs differed by the type of used starter cultures and conditions of production. The addition of honeydew honey to kefir resulted in increased water holding capacity and a reduction in water activity. Honeydew honey kefir was characterized by the following flavor: astringent, fruity, pungent and waxy. As the honey content increased, the taste and waxy flavor became sweeter. In the sensory assessment, the attributes of texture and mouthfeel, creaminess, density and firmness, do not change because of the honey amount or storage time of the samples. The use of different starter cultures in kefir production with the addition of honeydew honey impacted texture parameters, resulting in up to a 4.8-fold increased viscosity index.

Abstract
β-galactosidase catalyzes lactose hydrolysis and transfers reactions to produce prebiotics such as galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) with potential applications in the food industry and pharmaceuticals. However, there is still a need for improved transgalactosylation activity of β-galactosidases and reaction conditions of GOS production in order to maximize GOS output and reduce production costs. In this study, a β-galactosidase gene, galA, from Bacillus circulans was expressed in Pichia pastoris, which not only hydrolyzed lactose but also had strong transgalactosylation activity to produce GOS. Response surface methodology was adopted to investigate the effects of temperature, enzyme concentration, pH, initial lactose concentration, and reaction time on the production of GOS and optimize the reaction conditions for GOS. The optimal pH for the enzyme was 6.0 and remained stable under neutral and basic conditions. Meanwhile, GALA showed most activity at 50°C and retained considerable activity at a lower temperature 30–40°C, indicating this enzyme could work under mild conditions. The enzyme concentration and temperature were found to be the critical parameters affecting the transgalactosylation activity. Response surface methodology showed that the optimal enzyme concentration, initial lactose concentration, temperature, pH, and reaction time were 3.03 U/mL, 500 g/L, 30°C, 5.08, and 4 h, respectively. Under such conditions, the maximum yield of GOS was 252.8 g/L, accounting for approximately 50.56% of the total sugar. This yield can be considered relatively high compared to those obtained from other sources of β-galactosidases, implying a great potential for GALA in the industrial production and application of GOS.
