Abstract
The probiotic properties of twenty-five lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from human breast milk were investigated considering their resistance to gastrointestinal conditions and proteolytic activity. Seven LAB were identified and assessed for auto- and co-aggregation capacity, antibiotic resistance, and behavior during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Three Lacticaseibacillus strains were further evaluated for antifungal activity, metabolite production (HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS) and proteolytic profiles (SDS-PAGE and HPLC-DAD) in fermented milk, whey, and soy beverage. All strains resisted in vitro gastrointestinal digestion with viable counts higher than 7.9 log10 CFU mL-1 after the colonic phase. Remarkable proteolytic activity was observed for 18/25 strains. Bacterial auto- and co-aggregation of 7 selected strains reached values up to 23 and 20%, respectively. L. rhamnosus B5H2, L. rhamnosus B9H2 and L. paracasei B10L2 inhibited P. verrucosum, F. verticillioides and F. graminearum fungal growth, highlighting L. rhamnosus B5H2. Several metabolites were identified, including antifungal compounds such as phenylacetic acid and 3-phenyllactic acid, and volatile organic compounds produced in fermented milk, whey, and soy beverage. SDS-PAGE demonstrated bacterial hydrolysis of the main milk (caseins) and soy (glycines and beta-conglycines) proteins, with no apparent hydrolysis of whey proteins. However, HPLC-DAD revealed alpha-lactoglobulin reduction up to 82% and 54% in milk and whey, respectively, with L. rhamnosus B5H2 showing the highest proteolytic activity. Overall, the three selected Lacticaseibacillus strains demonstrated probiotic capacity highlighting L. rhamnosus B5H2 with remarkable potential for generating bioactive metabolites and peptides which are capable of promoting human health.

Zhou G, Liu Y, Dong P, Mao Y, Zhu L, Luo X, Zhang Y. Airborne signals of Pseudomonas fluorescens modulate swimming motility and biofilm formation of Listeria monocytogenes in a contactless coculture system. Food Microbiol 2024; 120:104494. [PMID: 38431335 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2024.104494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Bacterial volatile compounds (BVCs) facilitate interspecies communication in socio-microbiology across physical barriers, thereby influencing interactions between diverse species. The impact of BVCs emitted from Pseudomonas on the biofilm formation characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes within the same ecological niche has been scarcely investigated under practical conditions of food processing. The objective of this study was to explore the motility and biofilm formation characteristics of L. monocytogenes under the impact of Pseudomonas BVCs. It was revealed that BVCs of P. fluorescens, P. lundensis, and P. fragi significantly promoted swimming motility of L. monocytogenes (P < 0.05). As evidenced by crystal violet staining, the L. monocytogenes biofilms reached a maximum OD570 value of approximately 3.78 at 4 d, which was 0.65 units markedly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Despite a decrease in adherent cells of L. monocytogenes biofilms among the BVCs groups, there was a remarkable increase in the abundance of extracellular polysaccharides and proteins with 3.58 and 4.90 μg/cm2, respectively (P < 0.05), contributing to more compact matrix architectures, which suggested that the BVCs of P. fluorescens enhanced L. monocytogenes biofilm formation through promoting the secretion of extracellular polymers. Moreover, the prominent up-regulated expression of virulence genes further revealed the positive regulation of L. monocytogenes under the influence of BVCs. Additionally, the presence of BVCs significantly elevated the pH and TVB-N levels in both the swimming medium and biofilm broth, thereby exhibiting a strong positive correlation with increased motility and biofilm formation of L. monocytogenes. It highlighted the crucial signaling regulatory role of BVCs in bacterial interactions, while also emphasizing the potential food safety risk associated with the hitchhiking behavior of L. monocytogenes, thereby shedding light on advancements in control strategies for food processing.

Abstract
Sustainable packaging has been steadily gaining prominence within the food industry, with biobased materials emerging as a promising substitute for conventional petroleum-derived plastics. This review is dedicated to the examination of innovative biobased materials in the context of bread packaging. It aims to furnish a comprehensive survey of recent discoveries, fundamental properties, and potential applications. Commencing with an examination of the challenges posed by various bread types and the imperative of extending shelf life, the review underscores the beneficial role of biopolymers as internal coatings or external layers in preserving product freshness while upholding structural integrity. Furthermore, the introduction of biocomposites, resulting from the amalgamation of biopolymers with active biomolecules, fortifies barrier properties, thus shielding bread from moisture, oxygen, and external influences. The review also addresses the associated challenges and opportunities in utilizing biobased materials for bread packaging, accentuating the ongoing requirement for research and innovation to create advanced materials that ensure product integrity while diminishing the environmental footprint.

Comparison of Electrostatic Spray Drying, Spray Drying, and Freeze Drying for Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG Dehydration. Foods 2023; 12:3117. [PMID: 37628116 PMCID: PMC10453923 DOI: 10.3390/foods12163117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Spray drying (SD) is extensively used to encapsulate lactic acid bacteria in large-scale industrial applications; however, bacteria combat several harms that reduce their viability. In this study, a novel technique called electrostatic spray drying (ESD) was used to explore the benefits and disadvantages of using electrostatic charge and lower temperatures in the system. Freeze drying (FD) was used as a reference. The effect of different encapsulation agents, like maltodextrin, arabic gum, and skim milk, on the viability of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) was investigated. The initial cell concentration, particle size distribution, aspect ratio, sphericity, scanning-electron-microscopy images, moisture content, water activity, glass transition, rehydration abilities, and survival during storage were compared. Skim milk was proven to be the best protectant for LGG, regardless of the drying process or storage time. A huge reduction in cell numbers (4.49 ± 0.06 log CFU/g) was observed with maltodextrin using SD; meanwhile, it was protected with minimum loss (8.64 ± 0.62 log CFU/g) with ESD. In general, ESD preserved more LGG cells during processing compared to SD, and provided better stability than FD and SD during storage, regardless of the applied voltage. The ESD product analysis demonstrated an efficient LGG preservation, close to FD; therefore, ESD presented to be a promising and scalable substitute for SD and FD.
