Venkataraman S, Rajendran DS, Vaidyanathan VK. An insight into the utilization of microbial biosurfactants pertaining to their industrial applications in the food sector. Food Sci Biotechnol 2024; 33:245-273. [PMID: 38222912 PMCID: PMC10786815 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-023-01435-6] [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: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Microbial biosurfactants surpass synthetic alternatives due to their biodegradability, minimal toxicity, selective properties, and efficacy across a wide range of environmental conditions. Owing to their remarkable advantages, biosurfactants employability as effective emulsifiers and stabilizers, antimicrobial and antioxidant attributes, rendering them for integration into food preservation, processing, formulations, and packaging. The biosurfactants can also be derived from various types of food wastes. Biosurfactants are harnessed across multiple sectors within the food industry, ranging from condiments (mayonnaise) to baked goods (bread, muffins, loaves, cookies, and dough), and extending into the dairy industry (cheese, yogurt, and fermented milk). Additionally, their impact reaches the beverage industry, poultry feed, seafood products like tuna, as well as meat processing and instant foods, collectively redefining each sector's landscape. This review thoroughly explores the multifaceted utilization of biosurfactants within the food industry as emulsifiers, antimicrobial, antiadhesive, antibiofilm agents, shelf-life enhancers, texture modifiers, and foaming agents.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28062823. [PMID: 36985795 PMCID: PMC10055102 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28062823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The terms discussed in this review-biosurfactants (BSs) and bioemulsifiers (BEs)-describe surface-active molecules of microbial origin which are popular chemical entities for many industries, including food. BSs are generally low-molecular-weight compounds with the ability to reduce surface tension noticeably, whereas BEs are high-molecular-weight molecules with efficient emulsifying abilities. Some other biomolecules, such as lecithin and egg yolk, are useful as natural BEs in food products. The high toxicity and severe ecological impact of many chemical-based surfactants have directed interest towards BSs/BEs. Interest in food surfactant formulations and consumer anticipation of "green label" additives over synthetic or chemical-based surfactants have been steadily increasing. BSs have an undeniable prospective for replacing chemical surfactants with vast significance to food formulations. However, the commercialization of BSs/BEs production has often been limited by several challenges, such as the optimization of fermentation parameters, high downstream costs, and low yields, which had an immense impact on their broader adoptions in different industries, including food. The foremost restriction regarding the access of BSs/BEs is not their lack of cost-effective industrial production methods, but a reluctance regarding their potential safety, as well as the probable microbial hazards that may be associated with them. Most research on BSs/BEs in food production has been restricted to demonstrations and lacks a comprehensive assessment of safety and risk analysis, which has limited their adoption for varied food-related applications. Furthermore, regulatory agencies require extensive exploration and analysis to secure endorsements for the inclusion of BSs/BEs as potential food additives. This review emphasizes the promising properties of BSs/BEs, trailed by an overview of their current use in food formulations, as well as risk and toxicity assessment. Finally, we assess their potential challenges and upcoming future in substituting chemical-based surfactants.

Bacillus subtilis DSM29784 attenuates Clostridium perfringens-induced intestinal damage of broilers by modulating intestinal microbiota and the metabolome. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1138903. [PMID: 37007491 PMCID: PMC10060821 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1138903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Necrotic enteritis (NE), especially subclinical NE (SNE), without clinical symptoms, in chicks has become one of the most threatening problems to the poultry industry. Therefore, increasing attention has been focused on the research and application of effective probiotic strains as an alternative to antibiotics to prevent SNE in broilers. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Bacillus subtilis DSM29784 (BS) on the prevention of subclinical necrotic enteritis (SNE) in broilers. A total of 480 1-day-old broiler chickens were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments, each with six replicates pens of twenty birds for 63 d. The negative (Ctr group) and positive (SNE group) groups were only fed a basal diet, while the two treatment groups received basal diets supplemented with BS (1 × 109 colony-forming units BS/kg) (BS group) and 10mg/kg enramycin (ER group), respectively. On days 15, birds except those in the Ctr group were challenged with 20-fold dose coccidiosis vaccine, and then with 1 ml of C. perfringens (2 × 108) at days 18 to 21 for SNE induction. BS, similar to ER, effectively attenuated CP-induced poor growth performance. Moreover, BS pretreatment increased villi height, claudin-1 expression, maltase activity, and immunoglobulin abundance, while decreasing lesional scores, as well as mucosal IFN-γ and TNF-α concentrations. In addition, BS pretreatment increased the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria and decreased that of pathogenic species; many lipid metabolites were enriched in the cecum of treated chickens. These results suggest that BS potentially provides active ingredients that may serve as an antibiotic substitute, effectively preventing SNE-induced growth decline by enhancing intestinal health in broilers.

Abstract
Endopolygalacturonase (EndoPGase), EC: 3.2.1.15. is one of the crucial pectinases belonging to the class of carbohydrase. The catalytic action of EndoPGase captivates the attention of the production of this extremely valuable catalyst in the industrial sector. The main focus was to ascertain a potential bacterial candidate for endoPGase production. The isolated bacterial strain was further identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The parameters for enzyme biosynthesis were optimized by a single and multiple factor approach at a time. The results of our investigation led to the identification of a potent strain of Bacillus subtilis NR2 [strain 168]. The sequence of 16S rRNA amplified from the isolated bacterium has been submitted to GenBank under accession number ON738697. The strain was found active for pectic enzyme activity under shaking- flask fermentation at pH 5.0 and 50 °C temperature of incubation. Among all monomeric and polymeric substrates (inducer-substrates), citrus pectin, followed by potato starch and pectin (Sigma) were considered the best enzyme inducers at 1% concentration. In comparison, an increased wheat bran concentration at 5% was proved to be ideal for EndoPGase biosynthesis Moreover, an increasing trend in enzyme activity was observed with the increasing concentration of inducer. The combined effect of three variables (pH, inducer-substrates, and inducer-substrate concentration) was explored by response surface methodology (RSM) involving a Box–Behnken design (BBD). Based on the results, we concluded that the soil-isolated B. subtilis can be effectively utilized for commercial-scale pectinase enzyme biosynthesis.

Abstract
A new Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus strain A5 was isolated from pickle soup and characterized for its probiotic suitability. Strain A5 was Gram-positive, catalase-negative, acid-producing, and exhibited potential antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (inhibition zone 17.3 mm), Bacillus subtilis (inhibition zone 14.5 mm), Salmonella enterica (zone of inhibition 16.1 mm) and Staphylococcus aureus (zone of inhibition 14.2 mm) by performing investigations on the disc diffusion. The cell-free supernatant of newly isolated strain A5 retained its inhibition ability of the growth of test bacteria at pH 2.0 to 5.0, temperature 121 °C for 30 min and UV irradiation for 8 h. However, the inhibitory effects of cell-free supernatant disappeared when subjected to papain, trypsin, and pepsin enzymatic treatments. By eliminating the interferences of organic acid and hydrogen peroxide, the cell-free supernatant possessed antibacterial activity against two indicator bacteria (E. coli and B. subtilis) and showed high thermal tolerance. These results indicated that the antibacterial substances produced by strain A5 were proteinaceous in nature, namely bacteriocin. The antibacterial bacteriocins in the supernatant of the strain A5 culture were further purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and gel filtration chromatography. The purified bacteriocins also showed a pronounced inhibitory effect against E. coli and B. subtilis. The approximated molecular weight of bacteriocins was less than 14 kDa after determining by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In conclusion, the newly isolated strain A5 and its bacteriocins could be potentially applied in food preservation to prevent the risk of foodborne illness.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the potentiality of certain biocontrol agents, namely Bacillus subtilis, B. pumilus, B. megaterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Serratia marcescens, Trichoderma album, T. harzianum and T. viride, as well as the synthetic fungicide difenoconazole to control celery powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe heraclei DC, in vitro (against conidia germination and germ tube length of E. heraclei) and in vivo (against disease severity and AUDPC). In vitro, it was found that the antifungal activity of the tested biocontrol agents significantly reduced the germination percentage of the conidia and germ tube length of the pathogen. The reduction in conidia germination ranged between 88.2% and 59.6% as a result of the treatment with B. subtilis and T. album, respectively compared with 97.1% by the synthetic fungicide difenoconazole. Moreover, the fungicide achieved the highest reduction in germ tube length (92.5%) followed by B. megaterium (82.0%), while T. album was the least effective (62.8%). Spraying celery plants with the tested biocontrol agents in the greenhouse significantly reduced powdery mildew severity, as well as the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC), after 7, 14, 21 and 28 days of application. In this regard, B. subtilis was the most efficient followed by B. pumilus, S. marcescens and B. megaterium, with 80.1, 74.4, 73.2 and 70.5% reductions in disease severity, respectively. In AUDPC, reductions of those microorganisms were 285.3, 380.9, 396.7 and 431.8, respectively, compared to 1539.1 in the control treatment. On the other hand, the fungicide difenoconazole achieved maximum efficacy in reducing disease severity (84.7%) and lowest AUDPC (219.3) compared to the other treatments. In the field, all the applied biocontrol agents showed high efficiency in suppressing powdery mildew on celery plants, with a significant improvement in growth and yield characteristics. In addition, they caused an increase in the concentration of leaf pigments, and the activities of defense-related enzymes such as peroxidase (PO) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and total phenol content (TPC). In conclusion, the results showed the possibility of using tested biocontrol agents as eco-friendly alternatives to protect celery plants against powdery mildew.

The study of the antifungal activity of the Bacillus subtilis BZR 336g strain under the conditions of periodic cultivation with the addition of citric acid, corn extract and some microelements.

Abstract
We studied the antifungal activity of the Bacillus subtilis BZR 336g strain against the test culture of the fungus Fusarium oxysporum var. orthoceras App. et Wr. BZR 6, depending on the addition of citric acid crystalline hydrate, a microelements solution and corn extract to the liquid nutrient medium. It was found that citric acid at a concentration of 15 g/l improves the bioavailability of microelements and increases antifungal activity. Corn extract and microelements without the formation of a chelate form with citric acid do not affect the fungicidal properties of B. subtilis BZR 336g. However, the corn extract at a concentration of 3 g / l increases the titer of bacteria in the liquid culture from 2 ± 0.1 × 108 to 1 ± 0.08 × 108 CFU/ml. The combined use of the studied components allowed us to achieve a significant increase in the antifungal activity of B. subtilis BZR 336g by 3.1 times. At the same time, the effect of synergism in their complex interaction was noted, which is probably due to a qualitative and quantitative change in the composition of B. subtilis BZR 336g antifungal metabolites.
