Abstract
Contamination of white-brined cheeses (WBCs) with yeasts is of major concern in the dairy industry. This study aimed to identify yeast contaminants and characterize their succession in white-brined cheese during a shelf-life of 52 weeks. White-brined cheeses added herbs (WBC1) or sundried tomatoes (WBC2) were produced at a Danish dairy and incubated at 5 °C and 10 °C. An increase in yeast counts was observed for both products within the first 12-14 weeks of incubation and stabilized afterwards varying in a range of 4.19-7.08 log CFU/g. Interestingly, higher incubation temperature, especially in WBC2, led to lower yeast counts, concurrently with higher diversity of yeast species. Observed decrease in yeast counts was, most likely, due to negative interactions between yeast species leading to growth inhibition. In total, 469 yeast isolates from WBC1 and WBC2 were genotypically classified using the (GTG)5-rep-PCR technique. Out of them, 132 representative isolates were further identified by sequencing the D1/D2 domain of the 26 S rRNA gene. Predominant yeast species in WBCs were Candida zeylanoides and Debaryomyces hansenii, while Candida parapsilosis, Kazachstania bulderi, Kluyveromyces lactis, Pichia fermentans, Pichia kudriavzevii, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Torulaspora delbrueckii, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus were found in lower frequency. Heterogeneity of yeast species in WBC2 was generally larger compared to WBC1. This study indicated that, along with contamination levels, taxonomic heterogeneity of yeasts is an important factor influencing yeast cell counts, as well as product quality during storage.

Ammoun I, Kothe CI, Mohellibi N, Beal C, Yaacoub R, Renault P. Lebanese fermented goat milk products: From tradition to meta-omics. Food Res Int 2023; 168:112762. [PMID: 37120212 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112762] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
Ambriss, Serdaleh and Labneh El Darff are traditional Lebanese products made from fermented goat's milk. A questionnaire completed by 50 producers of these products showed that they are prepared by periodic percolation either by milk or by Laban in amphora or goat skins during the lactation season. Production is carried out on a small scale and in a limited number of production units, often by elderly people, resulting in a real risk of disappearance of these products and loss of the corresponding microbial resources. In this study, 34 samples from 18 producers were characterized by culture-dependent and -independent analyses. The results obtained from these two methods were radically different, the latter revealing in Ambriss and Serdaleh the co-dominance of Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens, a fastidious-growing species, and Lactococcus lactis in a viable but not culturable state. Overall, their composition is reminiscent of kefir grains. Phylogenomic and functional analyses of the genomes of the key species Lb. kefiranofaciens have revealed differences from those found in kefir, particularly in their polysaccharide genes, which may explain the absence of grains. However, Labneh El Darff displayed a dominance of Lactobacillus delbrueckii, probably due to the addition of Laban. In addition, the study identified several zoonotic pathogens, including Streptococcus parasuis, which dominated in one sample. Metagenome-Assembled Genome (MAG) analysis indicated that this pathogen acquired lactose utilization genes through horizontal gene transfer. The contamination of the herd with Mycoplasmopsis agalactiae in the Chouf region was also revealed by MAG analysis of the Serdaleh samples. Antibiotic resistance genes were detected in most of the samples, particularly in the Serdaleh ones, where the dominant L. lactis strains possessed a plasmid with a multi-resistance island. Finally, this study paves the way for further analyses to shed light on the resilience of these ecosystems established in amphora or in goatskins and to improve hygiene practices for milk production.

Abstract
Galotyri is the most popular traditional Greek PDO soft acid-curd cheese. This study compared the microbial numbers and types and characterized the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) biota of two artisan-type Galotyri PDO cheese varieties, one marketed fresh (Brand-K) and the other ripened (Brand-Z). Two retail batches of each cheese variety were analyzed, and a total of 102 LAB isolates were biochemically identified. LAB (7.2–9.3 log CFU/g) prevailed in all cheeses, followed by yeasts (5.8–6.8 log CFU/g). Typical starter strains of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii were the most abundant species in all batches. However, the fresh Brand-K cheeses had 1–3 log units higher thermophilic starter LAB counts than the ripened Brand-Z cheeses, which contained a more diverse viable LAB biota comprising Lacticaseibacillus paracasei, Leuconostocmesenteroides, Lentilactobacillus (L. diolivorans, L. kefiri, L. hilgardii), Pediococcusinopinatus/parvulus, few spontaneous nonstarter thermophilic streptococci and lactobacilli, and Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis at higher subdominant levels.Conversely, the fresh Brand-K cheeses were enriched in members of the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum group; other LAB species were sporadically isolated, including Lactococcus lactis. All retail cheeses were safe (pH 3.9–4.0). No Salmonella spp. or Listeria monocytogenes were detected in 25-g samples by culture enrichment; however, Listeria innocua and coagulase-positive staphylococci (850 CFU/g) survived in one ripened batch. Gram-negative bacteria were <100 CFU/g in all cheeses. In conclusion, ripening reduced the starter LAB viability but increased the nonstarter LAB species diversity in the present Galotyri PDO market cheeses.

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
This study aimed to investigate the survival of the foodborne pathogen Escherichia coli O157:H7 in white-brined cheeses as influenced by the presence of Lactobacillus reuteri. The white cheeses were made from pasteurized bovine milk inoculated with E. coli O157:H7 (cocktail of 3 strains) to achieve ∼5 log10 cfu/g with absence or presence of Lb. reuteri (∼6 log10 cfu/g). Cheese samples were brined in 10% or 15% NaCl solution and stored at 10°C and 25°C for 28 d. The white-brined cheeses were assessed for salt content, pH, water activity (Aw), and numbers of E. coli O157:H7, Lb. reuteri, nonstarter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB), yeasts, and molds. Results showed that E. coli O157:H7 survived in cheese stored in both brine solutions at 10°C and 25°C regardless of the presence of Lb. reuteri. A substantial reduction was observed in cheese stored in 10% NaCl brine at 25°C, followed by cheese stored in 15% NaCl brine at 10°C by 2.64 and 2.16 log10 cfu/g, respectively, in the presence of Lb. reuteri and by 1.02 and 1.87 log10 cfu/g, respectively, in the absence of Lb. reuteri under the same conditions. The pathogen in brine solutions survived but at a lower rate. Furthermore, the growth of Lb. reuteri and NSLAB were enhanced or slightly decreased in cheese and brine by 28 d, respectively. The salt concentrations of cheese ranged from 4 to 6% and 5 to 7% (wt/wt), during 28-d ripening in 10 and 15% brine, respectively. Values of pH and Aw slightly increased at d 1 after exposure to brine and reached 4.69 to 6.08 and 0.91 to 0.95, respectively, in all treatments. Therefore, the addition of Lb. reuteri can be used as a biopreservation method to inhibit the survival of E. coli O157:H7 in white-brined cheese when combined with the appropriate temperature, NaCl level, and storage time.

Abstract
Cheese is a fermented dairy product that is popular for its unique flavor and nutritional value. Recent studies have shown that microorganisms in cheese play an important role in the fermentation process and determine the quality of the cheese. We collected 12 cheese samples from different regions and studied the composition of their bacterial communities using PacBio small-molecule real-time sequencing (Pacific Biosciences, Menlo Park, CA). Our data revealed 144 bacterial genera (including Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Lactococcus, and Staphylococcus) and 217 bacterial species (including Lactococcus lactis, Streptococcus thermophilus, Staphylococcus equorum, and Streptococcus uberis). We investigated the flavor quality of the cheese samples using an electronic nose system and we found differences in flavor-quality indices among samples from different regions. We found a clustering tendency based on flavor quality using principal component analysis. We found correlations between lactic acid bacteria and the flavor quality of the cheese samples. Biodegradation and metabolism of xenobiotics, and lipid-metabolism-related pathways, were predicted to contribute to differences in cheese flavor using Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt). This preliminary study explored the bacterial communities in cheeses collected from different regions and their potential genome functions from the perspective of flavor quality.
