Zhang Y, Yu P, Tao F. Dynamic Interplay between Microbiota Shifts and Differential Metabolites during Dairy Processing and Storage. Molecules 2024; 29:2745. [PMID: 38930811 PMCID: PMC11206652 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29122745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Due to the intricate complexity of the original microbiota, residual heat-resistant enzymes, and chemical components, identifying the essential factors that affect dairy quality using traditional methods is challenging. In this study, raw milk, pasteurized milk, and ultra-heat-treated (UHT) milk samples were collectively analyzed using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), high-throughput liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results revealed that raw milk and its corresponding heated dairy products exhibited different trends in terms of microbiota shifts and metabolite changes during storage. Via the analysis of differences in microbiota and correlation analysis of the microorganisms present in differential metabolites in refrigerated pasteurized milk, the top three differential microorganisms with increased abundance, Microbacterium (p < 0.01), unclassified Actinomycetia class (p < 0.05), and Micrococcus (p < 0.01), were detected; these were highly correlated with certain metabolites in pasteurized milk (r > 0.8). This indicated that these genera were the main proliferating microorganisms and were the primary genera involved in the metabolism of pasteurized milk during refrigeration-based storage. Microorganisms with decreased abundance were classified into two categories based on correlation analysis with certain metabolites. It was speculated that the heat-resistant enzyme system of a group of microorganisms with high correlation (r > 0.8), such as Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter, was the main factor causing milk spoilage and that the group with lower correlation (r < 0.3) had a lower impact on the storage process of pasteurized dairy products. By comparing the metabolic pathway results based on metagenomic and metabolite annotation, it was proposed that protein degradation may be associated with microbial growth, whereas lipid degradation may be linked to raw milk's initial heat-resistant enzymes. By leveraging the synergy of metagenomics and metabolomics, the interacting factors determining the quality evolution of dairy products were systematically investigated, providing a novel perspective for controlling dairy processing and storage effectively.

Monitoring Changes in the Antimicrobial-Resistance Gene Set (ARG) of Raw Milk and Dairy Products in a Cattle Farm, from Production to Consumption. Vet Sci 2024; 11:265. [PMID: 38922012 PMCID: PMC11209563 DOI: 10.3390/vetsci11060265] [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: 04/27/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Raw milk and dairy products can serve as potential vectors for transmissible bacterial, viral and protozoal diseases, alongside harboring antimicrobial-resistance genes. This study monitors the changes in the antimicrobial-resistance gene pool in raw milk and cheese, from farm to consumer, utilizing next-generation sequencing. Five parallel sampling runs were conducted to assess the resistance gene pool, as well as phage or plasmid carriage and potential mobility. In terms of taxonomic composition, in raw milk the Firmicutes phylum made up 41%, while the Proteobacteria phylum accounted for 58%. In fresh cheese, this ratio shifted to 93% Firmicutes and 7% Proteobacteria. In matured cheese, the composition was 79% Firmicutes and 21% Proteobacteria. In total, 112 antimicrobial-resistance genes were identified. While a notable reduction in the resistance gene pool was observed in the freshly made raw cheese compared to the raw milk samples, a significant growth in the resistance gene pool occurred after one month of maturation, surpassing the initial gene frequency. Notably, the presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes, such as OXA-662 (100% coverage, 99.3% identity) and OXA-309 (97.1% coverage, 96.2% identity), raised concerns; these genes have a major public health relevance. In total, nineteen such genes belonging to nine gene families (ACT, CMY, EC, ORN, OXA, OXY, PLA, RAHN, TER) have been identified. The largest number of resistance genes were identified against fluoroquinolone drugs, which determined efflux pumps predominantly. Our findings underscore the importance of monitoring gene pool variations throughout the product pathway and the potential for horizontal gene transfer in raw products. We advocate the adoption of a new approach to food safety investigations, incorporating next-generation sequencing techniques.

Abstract
The dairy industry is reshaping itself and becoming commercialized in Pakistan due to the increased demand for milk to overcome the shortage. Exotic breeds such as Holstein Friesian, a high milk producing breed have started being reared more on farms in Pakistan. Along with other issues, mastitis does affects the milk production of this breed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the milk composition in terms of bacterial communities in Holstein Friesian reared in Punjab, Pakistan and alteration in microbial composition with healthy and mastitic udder. Milk samples (n = 36) from farms rearing Holstein Friesian were collected. Among these samples, 05 samples from each three groups, HHF(healthy), CHF (clinical mastitis) and SHF (subclinical mastitis), based on their udder health condition, were processed using the 16 S r=RNA gene based technique. Diversity assessment as carried out by alpha diversity indices showed that milk samples from the udder infected with clinical mastitis were the least diverse and those from the healthy udder were more diverse. Beta diversity across samples showed a scattered pattern suggesting overlap amongst bacterial communities across different groups samples as depicted by PCA plots of beta diversity indices. The taxonomic profile revealed that Proteobacteria Firmicutes, Bacteroidota and Actinobacteriota were the major phyla detected across all groups. Proteobacteria dominated the HHF and SHF group while abundance of Firmicutes was higher in CHF group. Differences at other levels including order, genus and species were also recorded. The overall picture concludes that diverse microbiota is associated with different udder health conditions.

[PMID: 38650014 PMCID: PMC11034113 DOI: 10.1186/s42523-024-00309-4] [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: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A mother's milk is considered the gold standard of nutrition in neonates and is a source of cytokines, immunoglobulins, growth factors, and other important components, yet little is known about the components of canine milk, specifically colostrum, and the knowledge related to its microbial and metabolic profiles is particularly underwhelming. In this study, we characterized canine colostrum and milk microbiota and metabolome for several breeds of dogs and examined profile shifts as milk matures in the first 8 days post-whelping. RESULTS Through untargeted metabolomics, we identified 63 named metabolites that were significantly differentially abundant between days 1 and 8 of lactation. Surprisingly, the microbial compositions of the colostrum and milk, characterized using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, were largely similar, with only two differentiating genera. The shifts observed, mainly increases in several sugars and amino sugars over time and shifts in amino acid metabolites, align with shifts observed in human milk samples and track with puppy development. CONCLUSION Like human milk, canine milk composition is dynamic, and shifts are well correlated with developing puppies' needs. Such a study of the metabolic profile of canine milk, and its relation to the microbial community, provides insights into the changing needs of the neonate, as well as the ideal nutrition profile for optimal functionality. This information will add to the existing knowledge base of canine milk composition with the prospect of creating a quality, tailored milk substitute or supplement for puppies.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play an important role in the ripening of cheeses and contribute to the development of the desired profile of aroma and flavor compounds. Therefore, it is very important to monitor the dynamics of bacterial proliferation in order to obtain an accurate and reliable number of their cells at each stage of cheese ripening. This work aimed to identify and conduct a quantitative assessment of the selected species of autochthonous lactic acid bacteria from raw cow's milk cheese by the development of primers and probe pairs based on the uniqueness of the genetic determinants with which the target microorganisms can be identified. For that purpose, we applied real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) protocols to quantify Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris cells in cheese directly after production and over three-month and six-month ripening periods. While L. lactis subsp. cremoris shows good acidification ability and the ability to produce antimicrobial compounds, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus has good proteolytic ability and produces exo-polysaccharides, and S. thermophilus takes part in the formation of the diacetyl flavor compound by metabolizing citrate to develop aroma, they all play an important role in the cheese ripening. The proposed qPCR protocols are very sensitive and reliable methods for a precise enumeration of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, and L. lactis subsp. cremoris in cheese samples.

Abstract
Smear-ripened cheeses are characterized by a viscous, red-orange surface smear on their rind. It is the complex surface microbiota on the cheese rind that is responsible for the characteristic appearance of this cheese type, but also for the wide range of flavors and textures of the many varieties of smear-ripened cheeses. The surface smear microbiota also represents an important line of defense against the colonization with undesirable microorganisms through various types of interaction, such as competitive exclusion or production of antimicrobial substances. Predominant members of the surface smear microbiota are salt-tolerant yeast and bacteria of the phyla Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria. In the past, classical culture-based approaches already shed light on the composition and succession of microorganisms and their individual contribution to the typicity of this cheese type. However, during the last decade, the introduction and application of novel molecular approaches with high-resolution power provided further in-depth analysis and, thus, a much more detailed view of the composition, structure, and diversity of the cheese smear microbiota. This led to abundant novel knowledge, such as the identification of so far unknown community members. Hence, this review is summarizing the current knowledge of the diversity of the surface smear microbiota and its contribution to the quality and safety of smear-ripened cheese. If the succession or composition of the surface-smear microbiota is disturbed, cheese smear defects might occur, which may promote food safety issues. Hence, the discussion of cheese smear defects in the context of an increased understanding of the intricate surface smear ecosystem in this review may not only help in troubleshooting and quality control but also paves the way for innovations that can lead to safer, more consistent, and higher-quality smear-ripened cheeses.

Assessment of beneficial effects and identification of host adaptation-associated genes of Ligilactobacillus salivarius isolated from badgers. BMC Genomics 2023; 24:530. [PMID: 37679681 PMCID: PMC10483869 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-023-09623-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/25/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ligilactobacillus salivarius has been frequently isolated from the gut microbiota of humans and domesticated animals and has been studied as a candidate probiotic. Badger (Meles meles) is known as a "generalist" species that consumes complex foods and exhibits tolerance and resistance to certain pathogens, which can be partly attributed to the beneficial microbes such as L. salivarius in the gut microbiota. However, our understanding of the beneficial traits and genomic features of badger-originated L. salivarius remains elusive. RESULTS In this study, nine L. salivarius strains were isolated from wild badgers' feces, one of which exhibited good probiotic properties. Complete genomes of the nine L. salivarius strains were generated, and comparative genomic analysis was performed with the publicly available complete genomes of L. salivarius obtained from humans and domesticated animals. The strains originating from badgers harbored a larger genome, a higher number of protein-coding sequences, and functionally annotated genes than those originating from humans and chickens. The pan-genome phylogenetic tree demonstrated that the strains originating from badgers formed a separate clade, and totally 412 gene families (12.6% of the total gene families in the pan-genome) were identified as genes gained by the last common ancestor of the badger group. The badger group harbored significantly more gene families responsible for the degradation of complex carbohydrate substrates and production of polysaccharides than strains from other hosts; many of these were acquired by gene gain events. CONCLUSIONS A candidate probiotic and nine L. salivarius complete genomes were obtained from the badgers' gut microbiome, and several beneficial genes were identified to be specifically present in the badger-originated strains that were gained in the evolution. Our study provides novel insights into the adaptation of L. salivarius to the intestinal habitat of wild badgers and provides valuable strain and genome resources for the development of L. salivarius as a probiotic.

Abstract
S. maltophilia is a widely distributed bacterium found in natural, anthropized and clinical environments. The genome of this opportunistic pathogen of environmental origin includes a large number of genes encoding RND efflux pumps independently of the clinical or environmental origin of the strains. These pumps have been historically associated with the uptake of antibiotics and clinically relevant molecules because they confer resistance to many antibiotics. However, considering the environmental origin of S. maltophilia, the ecological role of these pumps needs to be clarified. RND efflux systems are highly conserved within bacteria and encountered both in pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. Moreover, their evolutionary origin, conservation and multiple copies in bacterial genomes suggest a primordial role in cellular functions and environmental adaptation. This review is aimed at elucidating the ecological role of S. maltophilia RND efflux pumps in the environmental context and providing an exhaustive description of the environmental niches of S. maltophilia. By looking at the substrates and functions of the pumps, we propose different involvements and roles according to the adaptation of the bacterium to various niches. We highlight that i°) regulatory mechanisms and inducer molecules help to understand the conditions leading to their expression, and ii°) association and functional redundancy of RND pumps and other efflux systems demonstrate their complex role within S. maltophilia cells. These observations emphasize that RND efflux pumps play a role in the versatility of S. maltophilia.

Bettera L, Levante A, Bancalari E, Bottari B, Gatti M. Lactic acid bacteria in cow raw milk for cheese production: Which and how many? Front Microbiol 2023; 13:1092224.

Abstract
Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) exert a fundamental activity in cheese production, as starter LAB in curd acidification, or non-starter LAB (NSLAB) during ripening, in particular in flavor formation. NSLAB originate from the farm and dairy environment, becoming natural contaminants of raw milk where they are present in very low concentrations. Afterward, throughout the different cheesemaking processes, they withstand chemical and physical stresses becoming dominant in ripened cheeses. However, despite a great body of knowledge is available in the literature about NSLAB effect on cheese ripening, the investigations regarding their presence and abundance in raw milk are still poor. With the aim to answer the initial question: "which and how many LAB are present in cow raw milk used for cheese production?," this review has been divided in two main parts. The first one gives an overview of LAB presence in the complex microbiota of raw milk through the meta-analysis of recent taxonomic studies. In the second part, we present a collection of data about LAB quantification in raw milk by culture-dependent analysis, retrieved through a systematic review. Essentially, the revision of data obtained by plate counts on selective agar media showed an average higher concentration of coccoid LAB than lactobacilli, which was found to be consistent with meta-taxonomic analysis. The advantages of the impedometric technique applied to the quantification of LAB in raw milk were also briefly discussed with a focus on the statistical significance of the obtainable data. Furthermore, this approach was also found to be more accurate in highlighting that microorganisms other than LAB are the major component of raw milk. Nevertheless, the variability of the results observed in the studies based on the same counting methodology, highlights that different sampling methods, as well as the "history" of milk before analysis, are variables of great importance that need to be considered in raw milk analysis.

Abstract
This study investigated the community composition of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from yaks' milk (YM) Tibetan yellow cattle milk (TM) and their fermented products from different counties in the Nyingchi Prefecture, Tibet using Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing. Sequencing revealed 26 genera and 94 species from 71 dairy samples; amongst these Lactobacillus delbrueckii (36.17%), Streptococcus thermophilus (19.46%) and Lactococcus lactis (18.33%) were the predominant species. This study also identified the main factors influencing LAB community composition by comparing amongst samples from different locations, from different milk types, and from different altitudes. The LAB communities in YM and TM were more diverse than in fermented yaks' milk (FYM) and fermented Tibetan yellow cattle milk (FTM) samples. Similarly, whether milk was fermented or not accounted for differences in LAB species composition while altitude of the dairy products had very little effect. Milk source and production process were the most likely causes of drastic shifts in microbial community composition. In addition, fermented dairy products were enriched in genes responsible for secondary metabolic pathways that were potentially beneficial for health. Comprehensive descriptions of the microbiota in different dairy products from the Nyingchi Prefecture, Tibet might help elucidate evolutionary and functional relationships amongst bacterial communities in these products.

Pseudomonas fluorescens and Escherichia coli in Fresh Mozzarella Cheese: Effect of Cellobiose Oxidase on Microbiological Stability during Refrigerated Shelf Life. Foods 2022; 12:foods12010145. [PMID: 36613361 PMCID: PMC9818948 DOI: 10.3390/foods12010145] [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: 11/18/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Mozzarella cheese possesses a high moisture content (50−60%) and a relatively high pH (around 5.5) and is therefore considered a perishable food product characterized by high quality deterioration and the potential risk of microbial contamination. Moreover, it can be spoiled by Pseudomonas spp. and coliform bacteria, which may be involved in different negative phenomena, such as proteolysis, discolorations, pigmentation, and off-flavors. To prevent these, different methods were investigated. In this context, the present study aims to assess the antimicrobial effect of cellobiose oxidase on Pseudomonas fluorescens (5026) and Escherichia coli (k88, k99) in mozzarella cheese during refrigerated shelf life. Methods: microbiological challenge tests were designed by contaminating the mozzarella covering liquid containing different cellobiose oxidase concentrations with P. fluorescens (5026) and E. coli (k88, k99). The behavior of these microorganisms and the variation of hydrogen peroxide concentrations were then tested under refrigerated conditions for 20 days to simulate the mozzarella cheese shelf life. Results and Conclusions: The data obtained demonstrated the effect of cellobiose oxidase on microbial growth. In particular, E. coli (k88, k99) was inhibited over the entire shelf life, while P. fluorescens (5026) was only partially affected after a few days of refrigerated storage.

Abstract
The main objective of this research was to evaluate the development of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the accumulation of biogenic amines (BAs) in relation to the dynamic of microbial population composition in fresh and ripened cheese produced from raw milk of ewes fed a diet containing grape pomace (GP+) and fed a standard diet (Ctrl). Genomic DNA was extracted from the cheeses at 2 (T2), 60 (T60), 90 (T90) and 120 (T120) days of ripening and prepared for 16S rRNA-gene sequencing to characterize the cheese microbiota; furthermore, VOCs were determined via solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and biogenic amines by HPLC analyses. Diet did not affect the relative abundance of the main phyla identified, Proteobacteria characterized T2 samples, but the scenario changed during the ripening. At genus level, Pseudomonas, Chryseobacterium and Acinetobacter were the dominant taxa, however, a lower percentage of Pseudomonas was detected in GP+ cheeses. Enterococcus became dominant in ripened cheeses followed in Ctrl cheeses by Lactobacillus and in GP+ cheeses by Lactococcus. The diet affected the development of carboxylic acids and ketones but not of aldehydes. Low levels of esters were identified in all the samples. In total, four biogenic amines were determined in cheeses samples and their levels differed between the two groups and during ripening time. In 60, T90 and T120 GP+ cheeses, a lower amount of 2-phenylethylamine was found compared to Ctrl. Putrescine was detected only in GP+ samples and reached the highest level at 120 days. Conversely, the amount of cadaverine in GP+ samples was invariable during the ripening. The concentration of tyramine in GP+ samples was compared to Ctrl during the ripening. Overall, significant positive correlations between some families of bacteria and the formation of VOCs and BAs were found.

Abstract
Targeting the gastrointestinal microbiome for improvement of feed efficiency and reduction of production costs is a potential promising strategy. However little progress has been made in manipulation of the gut microbiomes in dairy cattle to improve milk yield and milk quality. Even less understood is the milk microbiome. Understanding the milk microbiome may provide insight into how the microbiota correlate with milk yield and milk quality. The objective of this study was to characterize similarities between rumen, fecal, and milk microbiota simultaneously, and to investigate associations between microbiota, milk somatic cell count (SCC), and milk yield. A total of 51 mid-lactation, multiparous Holstein dairy cattle were chosen for sampling of ruminal, fecal, and milk contents that were processed for microbial DNA extraction and sequencing. Cows were categorized based on low, medium, and high SCC; as well as low, medium, and high milk yield. Beta diversity indicated that ruminal, fecal, and milk populations were distinct (p < 0.001). Additionally, the Shannon index demonstrated that ruminal microbial populations were more diverse (p < 0.05) than were fecal and milk populations, and milk microbiota was the least diverse of all sample types (p < 0.001). While diversity indices were not linked (p > 0.1) with milk yield, milk microbial populations from cows with low SCC demonstrated a more evenly distributed microbiome in comparison to cows with high SCC values (p = 0.053). These data demonstrate the complexity of host microbiomes both in the gut and mammary gland. Further, we conclude that there is a significant relationship between mammary health (i.e., SCC) and the milk microbiome. Whether this microbiome could be utilized in efforts to protect the mammary gland remains unclear, but should be explored in future studies.

Abstract
To search endophytic bacteria diversity and evaluate their antibacterial activity, healthy medicinal plant of Scrophularia striata was chosen in this study. One hundred endophytic bacteria were isolated from surface-sterilized tissues (root, stem and leaf) of S. striata. Using sequence analysis targeting 16S rRNA gene, eight genera, including Agrococcus, Arthrobacter, Bacillus, Chryseobacterium, Delftia, Kocuria, Pseudomonas and Sphingomonas were identified. Antibacterial activity of endophytic bacteria was examined against some test bacteria, employing agar well diffusion method. Out of 31 endophytic bacterial isolates, 24(77.42%) isolates showed significant antimicrobial activity against Bacillus cereus, 17(54.84%) isolates exhibited maximum activity against Staphylococcus aureus, 14(45.16%) isolates against Escherichia coli and 5(16.13%) isolates showed positive activity against Proteus mirabilis.The results obtained in this study suggested that the medicinal plant, S. striatais is a potent source of endophytic bacteria with antibacterial activity and offers promise for discovery of more impressive biological compounds.

Bacterial Diversity and Dynamics during Spontaneous Cheese Whey Fermentation at Different Temperatures. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
The effect of temperature (32–50 °C) on bacterial dynamics and taxonomic structure was evaluated during spontaneous whey fermentation for lactic acid production. Bacterial plate count in fresh whey (5 log CFU/mL) increased in two orders of magnitude after 60 h of fermentation (7 log CFU/mL), followed by one log reduction after 120 h (6 log CFU/mL) at 37 and 42 °C. Streptococcus and Lactobacillus counts ranged between 5–9 and 5–8 log CFU/mL, respectively. High-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene (V3-V4 region) used as a taxonomic marker revealed thirteen different bacterial phyla. Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria were detected in all fermentation treatments (32–50 °C, 0–120 h), where Firmicutes was the predominant phylum. Bacterial diversity included more than 150 bacterial genera with predominant lactic acid bacteria (belonging to Firmicutes) such as Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Streptococcus, and Tetragenococcus. At the species level, fresh whey presented 61 predominant species (relative abundance > 0.05%); however, only 57.4% of these resisted the fermentation conditions (most of them belonging to lactic acid bacteria genera). Tetragenococcus halophilus, Lactococcus lactis, and Enterococcus casseliflavus were the predominant bacteria found in all treatments. Temperatures between 37–42 °C were more favorable for lactic acid production and could be considered appropriate conditions for fermented whey production and for the standardization of some artisanal cheese-making processes requiring acid whey addition for milk coagulation. The diversity of native beneficial bacteria found in fresh whey offers attractive technological characteristics, and their fermentative capacity would represent a biotechnological option to add value to cheese whey.

Abstract
The smear of surface-ripened cheese harbors complex microbiota mainly composed of typical Gram-positive aerobic bacteria and yeast. Gram-negative bacteria are usually classified as un-wanted contaminants. In order to investigate the abundance and impact of Gram-negative bacte-ria naturally occurring in the smear of surface-ripened cheese, we performed a culture-based analysis of smear samples from 15 semi-hard surface-ripened cheese varieties. The quantity, di-versity and species distribution of Proteobacteria in the surface smear of the analyzed cheese vari-eties were unexpectedly high, and comprised a total of 22 different species. Proteus and Morganella predominated most of the analyzed cheese varieties, while Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Hafnia and Serratia were also found frequently. Further physiological characterization of Proteus isolates re-vealed strong proteolytic activity, and the analysis of volatiles in the smear cheese surface head-space suggested that Enterobacterales produce volatile organic flavor compounds that contribute to the organoleptic properties of surface-ripened cheese. Autochthonous members of Enterobac-terales were found in 12 of the 15 smear samples from surface-ripened cheeses, suggesting that they are part of the typical house microbiota that shape the organoleptic properties of the cheese rather than represent unwanted contaminants. However, further investigation on safety issues of the individual species should be performed in order to manage the health risk for consumers.

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
Staphylococcus xylosus forms biofilm embedded in an extracellular polymeric matrix. As extracellular DNA (eDNA) resulting from cell lysis has been found in several staphylococcal biofilms, we investigated S. xylosus biofilm in vitro by a microscopic approach and identified the mechanisms involved in cell lysis by a transcriptomic approach. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analyses of the biofilms, together with DNA staining and DNase treatment, revealed that eDNA constituted an important component of the matrix. This eDNA resulted from cell lysis by two mechanisms, overexpression of phage-related genes and of cidABC encoding a holin protein that is an effector of murein hydrolase activity. This lysis might furnish nutrients for the remaining cells as highlighted by genes overexpressed in nucleotide salvage, in amino sugar catabolism and in inorganic ion transports. Several genes involved in DNA/RNA repair and genes encoding proteases and chaperones involved in protein turnover were up-regulated. Furthermore, S. xylosus perceived osmotic and oxidative stresses and responded by up-regulating genes involved in osmoprotectant synthesis and in detoxification. This study provides new insight into the physiology of S. xylosus in biofilm.

Abstract
Mastitis is a cow disease usually signalized by irritation, swelling, and soreness of the udder. It is characterized by physical, chemical, and biological changes in the udder and milk. The aim of this study was to detect and characterize pathogens causing subclinical mastitis (SCM) from the milk of dairy cows of small-scale farmers through culture and molecular techniques. Milk was collected from 32 cows belonging to 8 small-scale farmers around Harrismith District, South Africa. The results showed that screening of SCM by California mastitis test and somatic cell counts (SCC) was 21.87 and 25%, respectively. Culture methods revealed the presence of Staphylococcus aureus at 93% followed by Streptococci spp. and Escherichia coli at 36.4 and 13.3%, respectively. The PCR could only detect E. coli, while single-molecule real-time sequencing showed a total of 2 phyla, 5 families, 7 genera, and 131 species. Clostridiaceae was the most abundant family, while Romboutsia was the most abundant genus followed by Turicibacter spp. The present study has documented the occurrence of SCM causing pathogens in milk collected from cows of small-scale farmers in Harrismith, indicating that SCM may be present at higher levels than expected.

Abstract
Two strains of a Gram-staining-positive species were isolated from German bulk tank milk. On the basis of their 16S rRNA sequences they were affiliated to the genus Facklamia but could not be assigned to any species with a validly published name. Facklamia miroungae ATCC BAA-466T (97.3 % 16S rRNA sequence similarity), Facklamia languida CCUG 37842T (96.9 %), and Facklamia hominis CCUG 36813T (96.6 %) are the closest relatives. In the 16S rRNA phylogeny and in the core-genome phylogeny strains WS 5301T and WS 5302 form a well-supported, separate lineage. Pairwise average nucleotide identity calculated using MUMmer (ANIm) between WS 5301T and type strains of other Facklamia species is well below the species cut-off (95 %) and ranges from 83.4 to 87.7 %. The DNA G+C content of the type strain is 36.4 mol% and the assembly size of the genome is 2.2 Mb. Cells of WS 5301T are non-motile, non-endospore-forming, oxidase-negative, catalase-negative and facultatively anaerobic cocci. The fastidious species grows at 10-40 °C and with up to 7.0 % (w/v) NaCl in BHI supplemented with 5 g l-1 yeast extract. Major polar lipids are phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and two glycolipids. Predominant fatty acids are C16 : 1ω9c and C18 : 1ω9c. On the basis of their genomic, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics the strains examined in this study represent the same, hitherto unknown species. We propose the name Facklamia lactis sp. nov. for which WS 5301T (=DSM 111018T=LMG 31861T) is the type strain and WS 5302 (=DSM 111019=LMG 31862) is an additional strain of this novel species.

Abstract
Abstract The highly complex raw milk matrix challenges the sample preparation for amplicon-sequencing due to low bacterial counts and high amounts of eukaryotic DNA originating from the cow. In this study, we optimized the extraction of bacterial DNA from raw milk for microbiome analysis and evaluated the impact of cycle numbers in the library-PCR. The selective lysis of eukaryotic cells by proteinase K and digestion of released DNA before bacterial lysis resulted in a high reduction of mostly eukaryotic DNA and increased the proportion of bacterial DNA. Comparative microbiome analysis showed that a combined enzymatic and mechanical lysis procedure using the DNeasy® PowerFood® Microbial Kit with a modified protocol was best suitable to achieve high DNA quantities after library-PCR and broad coverage of detected bacterial biodiversity. Increasing cycle numbers during library-PCR systematically altered results for species and beta-diversity with a tendency to overrepresentation or underrepresentation of particular taxa. To limit PCR bias, high cycle numbers should thus be avoided. An optimized DNA extraction yielding sufficient bacterial DNA and enabling higher PCR efficiency is fundamental for successful library preparation. We suggest that a protocol using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to resolve casein micelles, selective lysis of somatic cells, extraction of bacterial DNA with a combination of mechanical and enzymatic lysis, and restriction of PCR cycles for analysis of raw milk microbiomes is optimal even for samples with low bacterial numbers. Key points • Sample preparation for high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing of raw milk microbiota. • Reduction of eukaryotic DNA by enzymatic digestion. • Shift of detected microbiome caused by high cycle numbers in library-PCR.

Abstract
Raw milk is a nature media of microbiota that access milk from various sources,
which constitutes a challenge in dairy production. This study characterizes the
relationship between the raw milk quality and the bacteria diversity at
different sampling sites in dairy farms, aiming to provide a strong scientific
basis for good hygienic practices and optimized procedure in milk production.
High-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA V3-V4 region was used to analyze the
components, abundance and diversity of 48 bacterial population sampled from 8
different sites in dairy farm: pre-sterilized cow’s teats (C1),
post-sterilized cow’s teats (C2), milking cluster (E), milk in storage
tank (M1), transport vehicle (M2), storage equipment (E2), cow’s dung
samples (F) and drinking water (W). Firmicutes account for predominantly
32.36% (C1), 44.62% (C2), 44.71% (E), 41.10% (M1),
45.08% (M2), 53.38% (F) of all annotated phyla. Proteobacteria
accounts for 81.79% in W group and Actinobacteria 56.43% in E2
group. At the genus level, Acinetobacter was the most abundant
genus that causes bovine mastitis, Acinetobacter and
Arthrobacter were dominant in C1, C2, and E groups,
Kocuria in E2 group and Arcobacter in W group. E, C1, and
C2 group have very similar bacterial composition, and M1 and M2 demonstrated
similar composition, indicating that the milking cluster was polluted by the
environment or contact with cow udders. Bacterial population composition in
different sampling sites identified by NGS reveals a correlation between the
bacteria communities of raw milk production chain and the quality of raw
milk.

Current Trends of Enterococci in Dairy Products: A Comprehensive Review of Their Multiple Roles. Foods 2021; 10:foods10040821.

Abstract
As a genus that has evolved for resistance against adverse environmental factors and that readily exchanges genetic elements, enterococci are well adapted to the cheese environment and may reach high numbers in artisanal cheeses. Their metabolites impact cheese flavor, texture, and rheological properties, thus contributing to the development of its typical sensorial properties. Due to their antimicrobial activity, enterococci modulate the cheese microbiota, stimulate autolysis of other lactic acid bacteria (LAB), control pathogens and deterioration microorganisms, and may offer beneficial effects to the health of their hosts. They could in principle be employed as adjunct/protective/probiotic cultures; however, due to their propensity to acquire genetic determinants of virulence and antibiotic resistance, together with the opportunistic character of some of its members, this genus does not possess Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) status. It is, however, noteworthy that some putative virulence factors described in foodborne enterococci may simply reflect adaptation to the food environment and to the human host as commensal. Further research is needed to help distinguish friend from foe among enterococci, eventually enabling exploitation of the beneficial aspects of specific cheese-associated strains. This review aims at discussing both beneficial and deleterious roles played by enterococci in artisanal cheeses, while highlighting the need for further research on such a remarkably hardy genus.

Abstract
The dairy industry produces large amounts of wastewater, including white and cleaning wastewater originating principally from rinsing and cleaning-in-place procedures. Their valorization into process water and non-fat milk solids, in the case of white wastewater, or the renewal of cleaning solutions could be achieved using pressure-driven membrane processes. However, it is crucial to determine the intrinsic characteristics of wastewaters, such as proximate composition and bacterial composition, to optimize their potential for valorization. Consequently, white and cleaning wastewaters were sampled from industrial-scale pasteurizers located in two different Canadian dairy processing plants. Bacterial profiles of dairy wastewaters were compared to those of tap waters, pasteurized skim milk and unused cleaning solutions. The results showed that the physicochemical characteristics as well as non-fat milk solids contents differed drastically between the two dairy plants due to different processing conditions. A molecular approach combining quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and metabarcoding was used to characterize the bacteria present in these solutions. The cleaning solutions did not contain sufficient genomic DNA for sequencing. In white wastewater, the bacterial contamination differed depending on the dairy plant (6.91 and 7.21 log10 16S gene copies/mL). Psychrotrophic Psychrobacter genus (50%) dominated white wastewater from plant A, whereas thermophilic Anoxybacillus genus (56%) was predominant in plant B wastewater. The use of cold or warm temperatures during the pasteurizer rinsing step in each dairy plant might explain this difference. The detailed characterization of dairy wastewaters described in this study is important for the dairy sector to clearly identify the challenges in implementing strategies for wastewater valorization.

Abstract
The cheese microbiota comprises a consortium of prokaryotic, eukaryotic and viral populations, among which lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are majority components with a prominent role during manufacturing and ripening. The assortment, numbers and proportions of LAB and other microbial biotypes making up the microbiota of cheese are affected by a range of biotic and abiotic factors. Cooperative and competitive interactions between distinct members of the microbiota may occur, with rheological, organoleptic and safety implications for ripened cheese. However, the mechanistic details of these interactions, and their functional consequences, are largely unknown. Acquiring such knowledge is important if we are to predict when fermentations will be successful and understand the causes of technological failures. The experimental use of "synthetic" microbial communities might help throw light on the dynamics of different cheese microbiota components and the interplay between them. Although synthetic communities cannot reproduce entirely the natural microbial diversity in cheese, they could help reveal basic principles governing the interactions between microbial types and perhaps allow multi-species microbial communities to be developed as functional starters. By occupying the whole ecosystem taxonomically and functionally, microbiota-based cultures might be expected to be more resilient and efficient than conventional starters in the development of unique sensorial properties.

Abstract
Unpasteurized milk is used to produce aged artisanal cheeses, which presents a safety concern due to possible contamination with foodborne pathogens, especially Listeria monocytogenes. The objective of this study was to examine the composition of the bacterial community in unpasteurized milk used to prepare Gouda cheese artificially contaminated with L. monocytogenes (~1 log CFU/ml) and assess the community dynamics and their potential interaction with L. monocytogenes during a 90-day ripening period using targeted 16S rRNA sequencing. The diversity of bacterial taxa in three batches of unpasteurized milk was not significantly different, and the microbiomes were dominated by species of Lactococcus, Streptomyces, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas. The highest relative abundances were observed for Pseudomonas fluorescens (31.84-78.80%) and unidentified operational taxonomic units (OTUs) of Pseudomonas (7.56-45.27%). After manufacture, both with and without L. monocytogenes-contaminated unpasteurized milk, Gouda cheese was dominated by starter culture bacteria (including Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, lactis, lactis bv. diacetylactis, and Streptococcus thermophilus), in addition to unassigned members in the taxa L. lactis and Streptococcus. During ripening there was an overall decrease in L. lactis abundance and an increase in the number of taxa with relative abundances >0.1%. After 90-day ripening, a total of 82 and 81 taxa were identified in the Gouda cheese with and without L. monocytogenes, respectively. Of the identified taxa after ripening, 31 (Gouda cheese with L. monocytogenes) and 56 (Gouda cheese without L. monocytogenes) taxa had relative abundances >0.1%; 31 were shared between the two types of Gouda cheese, and 25 were unique to the Gouda cheese without added L. monocytogenes. No unique taxa were identified in the Gouda cheese with the added L. monocytogenes. This study provides information on the dynamics of the bacterial community in Gouda cheese during ripening, both with and without the addition of L. monocytogenes.

Abstract
Pélardon is an artisanal French raw goat's milk cheese, produced using natural whey as a backslop. The aim of this study was to identify key microbial players involved in the acidification and aroma production of this Protected Designation of Origin cheese. Microbial diversity of samples, collected from the raw milk to 3-month cheese ripening, was determined by culture-dependent (MALDI-TOF analysis of 2877 isolates) and -independent (ITS2 and 16S metabarcoding) approaches and linked to changes in biochemical profiles (volatile compounds and acids). In parallel, potential dominant autochthonous microorganism reservoirs were also investigated by sampling the cheese-factory environment. Complex and increasing microbial diversity was observed by both approaches during ripening although major discrepancies were observed regarding Lactococcus lactis and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei fate. By correlating microbial shifts to biochemical changes, Lactococcus lactis was identified as the main acidifying bacterium, while L. mesenteroides and Geotrichum candidum were prevalent and associated with amino acids catabolism after the acidification step. The three species were dominant in the whey (backslop). In contrast, L. paracasei, Enterococcus faecalis, Penicillium commune and Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, which dominated during ripening, likely originated from the cheese-making environment. All these four species were positively correlated to major volatile compounds responsible for the goaty and earthy Pélardon cheese aroma. Overall, this work highlighted the power of MALDI-TOF and molecular techniques combined with volatilome analyses to dynamically follow and identify microbial communities during cheese-making and successively identify the key-players involved in aroma production and contributing to the typicity of Pélardon cheese.

Abstract
Bacteria can play different roles and impart various flavors and characteristics to food. Few studies have described bacterial microbiota of butter. In this study, next-generation sequencing was used to determine bacterial content of raw milk butter, processed during a challenge test, depending on cream maturation temperature and on the presence or not of L. monocytogenes. Two batches were produced. pH and microbiological analyses were conducted during cream maturation and butter storage. DNA was also isolated from all samples for 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing analysis. For butter made from cream matured at 14 °C, a growth potential of L. monocytogenes of - 1.72 log cfu/g was obtained. This value corresponds to the difference between the median of counts at the end of storage and the median of counts at the beginning of storage. This butter (pH value of 4.75 ± 0.04) was characterized by a dominance of Lactococcus. The abundance of Lactococcus was significantly higher in inoculated samples than in control samples (p value < 0.05). Butter made from cream matured at 4 °C (pH value of 6.81 ± 0.01) presented a growth potential of 1.81 log cfu/g. It was characterized by the abundance of psychrotrophic bacteria mainly Pseudomonas. This study demonstrated that cream maturation temperature impacts butter microbiota, affecting thus product's characteristics and its ability to support or not the growth of pathogens like L. monocytogenes.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Staphylococcus xylosus in Solid Dairy Matrix Reveals an Aerobic Lifestyle Adapted to Rind. Microorganisms 2020; 8:microorganisms8111807. [PMID: 33212972 PMCID: PMC7698506 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms8111807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2020] [Revised: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 11/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Staphylococcus xylosus is found in the microbiota of traditional cheeses, particularly in the rind of soft smeared cheeses. Despite its frequency, the molecular mechanisms allowing the growth and adaptation of S. xylosus in dairy products are still poorly understood. A transcriptomic approach was used to determine how the gene expression profile is modified during the fermentation step in a solid dairy matrix. S. xylosus developed an aerobic metabolism perfectly suited to the cheese rind. It overexpressed genes involved in the aerobic catabolism of two carbon sources in the dairy matrix, lactose and citrate. Interestingly, S. xylosus must cope with nutritional shortage such as amino acids, peptides, and nucleotides, consequently, an extensive up-regulation of genes involved in their biosynthesis was observed. As expected, the gene sigB was overexpressed in relation with general stress and entry into the stationary phase and several genes under its regulation, such as those involved in transport of anions, cations and in pigmentation were up-regulated. Up-regulation of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes and glycine betaine transport and synthesis systems showed that S. xylosus has to cope with oxidative and osmotic stresses. S. xylosus expressed an original system potentially involved in iron acquisition from lactoferrin.

Food Microbiol 2020; 95:103672.

Abstract
Enumeration and isolation of Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus from cheese is challenging, due to the relatively high number of species it may host. We describe medium SPY9.3 for the cultivation of S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus from cheese. The medium and related incubation conditions (SPY) was compared with 2 other protocols, M17 and ST: sensitivity was assessed by parallel cultivation of 55 strains of S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus, and selectivity by (i) parallel cultivation of 60 strains belonging to 20 different non-target species and sub-species and (ii) isolating bacteria from 3 raw-milk cheeses. Colony counts were similar on SPY9.3 and M17 (mean difference 0.07 log(cfu/mL), p > 0.001) and significantly higher on ST than on M17 and SPY9.3 (mean differences 0.42 and 0.48 log(cfu/mL), respectively, p < 0.001). SPY was more specific than ST and M17, with respectively 20%, 40%, and 50% of the investigated non-target species able to grow. S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus, Enterococcus spp., and Staphylococcus aureus were indistinguishable using all 3 protocols. Only SPY avoided growth of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis. Finally, ST and SPY displayed higher recoveries of S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus colonies from cheese than M17 (5.6, 5.5, and 3.0 adjusted log(cfu/mL), respectively) and the lowest proportion of non-specific isolates. The protocol described here and based on SPY9.3 presents a promising alternative to existing protocols for the enumeration and isolation of S salivarius subsp. thermophilus from cheese or other complex fermented products.

Abstract
Preservation of cheese microbiota biodiversity is central to the sensory quality of traditional and PDO cheeses. Lyophilized commercial selected starters, being advantageous in terms of cells concentration, are supplanting natural cultures causing important loss of microbial biodiversity in the dairy environment. Biodiversity could be recovered using natural starter cultures, however their cells concentration after propagation is lower than the commercial ones. Two autochthonous and biodiverse starter cultures (MixA and MixB) coming from scotta (residual whey from Ricotta cheese manufacture), collected in the 1960 s from Pecorino Romano PDO cheese manufactures, were revitalized in reconstituted commercial powder scotta. The aim of this study was the propagation of the microbial starter mixes increasing their bacterial concentration in the pellet, reducing nonessential scotta components by a fast and not-expensive method, without changing the microbial community balance. The behaviour of each mix inoculated in scotta was compared to that in half-concentrated, clarified, and half-concentrated-clarified scotta. Higher cells concentration in the pellets from the modified scotta was obtained, without changing technological performances and microbial fingerprint. The pellets obtained were reinoculated in commercial scotta for the preparation of the scotta-innesto (the typical starter for Pecorino Romano), and no differences were observed among the treatments after incubation. The reduction of nonessential scotta's components could help the reproduction of natural starter cultures preserving their properties.

Abstract
Raw milk microbiota are complex communities with a significant impact on the hygienic, sensory and technological quality of milk products. However, there is a lack of knowledge on factors determining their composition. In the present study, four bulk tank milk samples of two farms at two different time points were analyzed in detail for their microbiota using cultivation and 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Diversity in samples from the first time point was assessed via cultivation of 500 aerobic mesophilic bacterial isolates in each sample. A high biodiversity of 70 and 110 species per sample was determined, of which 25–28% corresponded to yet unknown taxa. The isolates were dominated by Gram-positive members of the genera Staphylococcus, Corynebacterium, Streptococcus, or Janibacter, whilst Chryseobacterium and Acinetobacter were most abundant among the Gram-negative taxa. At the second time point, samples of the same farms were analyzed via both cultivation (1,500 individual colonies each) and high-throughput 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. The latter revealed a threefold higher biodiversity at the genus level, as anaerobic or fastidious species were also detected. However, cultivation identified genera not captured by sequencing, indicating that both approaches are complementary. Using amplicon sequencing, the relative abundance of a few genera was distorted, which seems to be an artifact of sample preparation. Therefore, attention needs to be paid to the library preparation procedure with special emphasis on cell lysis and PCR.

Abstract
Staphylococcus xylosus, a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, is frequently isolated from food products of animal origin and used as a starter culture in these products in which it contributes to their flavour, while Staphylococcus aureus, a coagulase-positive bacterium, causes foodborne intoxication and is implicated in a broad diversity of infections in medical sector, notably in nosocomial infections. S. xylosus and S. aureus are both capable of forming a biofilm and share the same ecological niches, thus we explored their interaction in biofilms with a view to limiting the risks associated with S. aureus. Cell-free supernatants of different strains of S. xylosus were able to inhibit the biofilm formation of S. aureus. The S. xylosus C2a strain released into the supernatant a molecule of molecular weight above 30 kDa that is resistant to proteolytic enzymes and inhibits the formation of S. aureus MW2 biofilm, though the mechanism involved has yet to be elucidated. Furthermore, S. xylosus C2a modified the architecture of S. aureus MW2 in co-culture biofilm. Confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed that S. aureus formed a biofilm with a flat and compact structure while in co-culture with S. xylosus the two species formed large juxtaposed aggregates throughout the period of incubation. This architecture made the S. aureus biofilm more susceptible to detachment.

Abstract
An adequate amount of nutrients is required to enable biodegradation of refractory hydrocarbons in petroleum-contaminated soil. In this study, a microcosm experiment was conducted using a drip fertigation method for petroleum-contaminated soil remediation. Nitrogen and phosphorus were homogeneously and periodically sprayed into a historically contaminated soil using a modified horticultural drip irrigation device. Various petroleum hydrocarbon fraction contents were then determined by gravimetry and gas chromatography (GC), and changes in the soil microbial community were analyzed by high throughput sequencing. After 90 days of remediation, the removal efficiencies of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH), saturates, aromatics, C7-C30 n-alkanes, and 16 PAHs were respectively enhanced by 21.5%, 25.5%, 12.4%, 10.4%, and 19.6% compared with the use of a single nutrient amendment application. The high throughput sequencing result showed that obvious changes had occurred in the soil microbial community compositions during drip fertigation; however, fungi were more sensitive to drip fertigation than bacteria. The resulting predominant bacterial and fungal genera were Dietzia, Nocardioides, Mycobacterium, Sphaerobacter, Leifsonia, and Aspergillus, Scolecobasidium, and Fusarium, respectively. Remediating polluted soils by regular fertigation ensures the automatic addition of even amounts of nutrients, which achieves high refractory hydrocarbon removal efficiencies. It is expected that this method can be applied in the in-situ remediation of petroleum-contaminated soil on a large scale.

Abstract
A pink-coloured bacterium (strain KR32T) was isolated from cheese and assigned to the 'Arthrobacter agilis group'. Members of the 'pink Arthrobacter agilis group' form a stable clade (100 % bootstrap value) and contain the species Arthrobacter agilis, Arthrobacter ruber and Arthrobacter echini, which share ≥99.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Isolate KR32T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99.9 %) to A. agilis DSM 20550T. Additional multilocus sequence comparison confirmed the assignment of strain KR32T to the clade 'pink A. agilis group'. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between isolate KR32T and A. agilis DSM 20550T were 82.85 and 26.30 %, respectively. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of isolate KR32T was 69.14 mol%. Chemotaxonomic analysis determined anteiso-C15 : 0 as the predominant fatty acid and MK-9(H2) as the predominant menaquinone. Polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol and monoacyldimannosyl-monoacylglycerol. The peptidoglycan type of the isolate was A3α. The carotenoid bacterioruberin was detected as the major pigment. At 10 °C, strain KR32T grew with increased concentrations of bacterioruberin and production of unsaturated fatty acids. Strain KR32T was a Gram-stain-positive, catalase-positive, oxidase-positive and coccus-shaped bacterium with optimal growth at 27-30 °C and pH 8. The results of phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses enabled the differentiation of the isolate from other closely related species of the 'pink A. agilis group'. Therefore, strain KR32T represents a novel species for which the name Arthrobacter bussei sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KR32T (=DSM 109896T=LMG 31480T=NCCB 100733T).

Abstract
Breast milk is the main source of nutrition for infants; it contains considerable microflora that can be transmitted to the infant endogenously or by breastfeeding, and it plays an important role in the maturation and development of the immune system. In this study, we isolated and identified lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from human colostrum, and screened 2 strains with probiotic potential. The LAB isolated from 40 human colostrum samples belonged to 5 genera: Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Streptococcus, Enterococcus, and Staphylococcus. We also isolated Propionibacterium and Actinomyces. We identified a total of 197 strains of LAB derived from human colostrum based on their morphology and 16S rRNA sequence, among them 8 strains of Bifidobacterium and 10 strains of Lactobacillus, including 3 Bifidobacterium species and 4 Lactobacillus species. The physiological and biochemical characteristics of strains with good probiotic characteristics were evaluated. The tolerances of some of the Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus strains to gastrointestinal fluid and bile salts were evaluated in vitro, using the probiotic strains Bifidobacterium lactis BB12 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG as controls. Among them, B. lactis Probio-M8 and L. rhamnosus Probio-M9 showed survival rates of 97.25 and 78.33% after digestion for 11 h in artificial gastrointestinal juice, and they exhibited growth delays of 0.95 and 1.87 h, respectively, in 0.3% bile salts. These two strains have the potential for application as probiotics and will facilitate functional studies of probiotics in breast milk and the development of human milk-derived probiotics.

Abstract
Cheese microbiota and metabolites and their inter-relationships that underpin specific cheese quality attributes remain poorly understood. Here we report that multi-omics and integrative data analysis (multiple co-inertia analysis, MCIA) can be used to gain deeper insights into these relationships and identify microbiota and metabolite fingerprints that could be used to monitor product quality and authenticity. Our study into different brands of artisanal and industrial cheddar cheeses showed that Streptococcus, Lactococcus and Lactobacillus were the dominant taxa with overall microbial community structures differing not only between industrial and artisanal cheeses but also among different cheese brands. Metabolome analysis also revealed qualitative and semi-quantitative differences in metabolites between different cheeses. This also included the presence of two compounds (3-hydroxy propanoic acid and O-methoxycatechol-O-sulphate) in artisanal cheese that have not been previously reported in any type of cheese. Integrative analysis of multi-omics datasets revealed that highly similar cheeses, identical in age and appearance, could be distinctively clustered according to cheese type and brand. Furthermore, the analysis detected strong relationships, some previously unknown, which existed between the cheese microbiota and metabolome, and uncovered specific taxa and metabolites that contributed to these relationships. These results highlight the potential of this approach for identifying product specific microbe/metabolite signatures that could be used to monitor and control cheese quality and product authenticity.

Abstract
ABSTRACT: The most consumed cheese in Brazil, Minas Frescal cheese (MFC) is highly susceptible to microbial contamination and clandestine production and commercialization can pose a risk to consumer health. The storage of this fresh product under refrigeration, although more appropriate, may favor the growth of spoilage psychrotrophic bacteria. The objective of this study was to quantify and compare Pseudomonas spp. and other psychrotrophic bacteria in inspected and non-inspected MFC samples, evaluate their lipolytic and proteolytic activities and their metalloprotease production potentials. Twenty MFC samples were evaluated: 10 inspected and 10 non-inspected. Counts of psychrotrophic bacteria and Pseudomonas spp., evaluation of the proteolytic and lipolytic potential of the isolates, and identification of potential producers of alkaline metalloprotease (AprX) were assessed. The mean total psychrotrophic counts were 1.07 (±2.18) × 109CFU/g in the inspected samples and 4.5 (±5.86) × 108CFU/g in the non-inspected, with no significant difference (p=0.37). The average score of Pseudomonas spp. was 6.86 (±18.6) × 105 and 2.08 (±3.65) × 106 CFU/g for the inspected and non-inspected MFC samples, respectively, with no significant difference (p=0.1). Pseudomonas spp. represented 0.06% and 0.004% of psychrotrophic bacteria found in inspected and non-inspected MFC samples, respectively. Collectively, 694 psychrotrophic strains and 47Pseudomonas spp. were isolated, of which 59.9% and 68.1% were simultaneously proteolytic and lipolytic, respectively. Of the 470 psychrotrophs isolated from inspected and 224 from non-inspected cheese samples, 5.74% and 2.23% contained aprX, respectively, while 100 and 86.96% of the Pseudomonas spp. isolates in inspected and non-inspected cheese samples contained the gene. The production potential of AprX did not, however, determine the proteolytic activity on plates of these isolates under the conditions evaluated in this study. Of total, 65.63% of the psychrotrophs that contained aprX gene were confirmed as Pseudomonas spp., using genus-specific PCR. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene of the other psychrotrophs that were potential producers of AprX identified them as Serratia spp. (n=7), Raoultella ornithinolytica (n=1), and Acinetobacter schindleri (n=1) in the inspected samples and Psychrobacter sanguinis (n=1) and Leuconostoc mesenteroides (n=1) in the non-inspected samples. The production conditions of Brazilian MFC of these samples, while meeting the legal determinations, are not sufficient to control Pseudomonas and other spoilage-related psychrotrophs. Thus, stricter hygienic measures are required during the formal production of this type of cheese.

Abstract
Four Gram-stain positive, rod-shaped bacterial isolates, strains JZ R-183T, JZ RK-117, DI-46 and JZ R-35T, were recovered from bulk tank raw cow's milk from three different dairy farms in Germany. Analysis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these isolates belonged to the family Micrococcaceae, closely related to the genera Arthrobacter, Neomicrococcus,Glutamicibacter and Citricoccus. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between the isolates and the next related type strains was below 97.3 %. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA, recA and gyrB genes revealed that these isolates formed two different groups in an independent cluster within the family Micrococcaceae. Chemotaxonomic analyses determined anteiso-C15 : 0 as predominant fatty acid, but also large amounts of iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 were detected. The menaquinones MK-9(H2) and MK-7(H2) were present in all of the isolates and the polar lipid pattern contained the phospholipids diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol and a glycolipid. The peptidoglycan type of the isolates was A4α, with alanine, lysine and glutamate as dominating cell wall amino acids. The fatty acid and menaquinone profile differentiated the strains from the genera Arthrobacter, Neomicrococcus,Citricoccus and Glutamicibacter. The results of phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses indicated that the isolates belonged to two novel species of a novel genus, for which the names Galactobacter caseinivorans gen. nov., sp. nov. and Galactobacter valiniphilus sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are JZ R-183T (=DSM 107700T=LMG 30902T) and JZ R-35T (=DSM 107699T=LMG 30901T).
