Characteristics of Lactic Acid Bacteria from Commercial Cucumber Fermentations.
In commercial practice cucumbers are brined in wooden vats ranging in capacity from about 100 to 1,200 bushels. The vats, after being filled with green cucumbers, are fitted with false heads, and salt brine of a given concentration is added to a level a few inches above the head. Next, dry salt is added on the false head of the vat to maintain the initial concentration, which otherwise would be...
متن کاملDNA fingerprinting of lactic acid bacteria in sauerkraut fermentations.
Previous studies using traditional biochemical identification methods to study the ecology of commercial sauerkraut fermentations revealed that four species of lactic acid bacteria, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus plantarum, Pediococcus pentosaceus, and Lactobacillus brevis, were the primary microorganisms in these fermentations. In this study, 686 isolates were collected from four com...
متن کاملIdentification of lactic acid bacteria associated with traditional cachaça fermentations
During the production of traditional cachaça (alembic´s cachaça), contamination of the fermented must is one of the factors leading to economic losses in the beverage manufacturing industry. The diversity of bacterial populations and the role of these microorganisms during the cachaça production process are still poorly understood in Brazil. In our work, the fermentation process was followed in...
متن کاملSorbic acid as a selective agent in cucumber fermentations. II. Effect of sorbic acid on the yeast and lactic acid fermentations in brined cucumbers.
Previous studies (Costilow et al., 1955) demonstrated that the yeasts found to be most prevalent in cucumber fermentations were completely inhibited by 0.01 per cent sorbic acid in an 8 per cent salt (NaCl) medium at pH 4.6. As the pH was increased and/or the salt concentration decreased, more sorbic acid was required for complete inhibition of some of the yeasts tested. Cultures of Pediococcus...
متن کاملAntagonistic activities of lactic acid bacteria in food and feed fermentations.
Many factors contribute to a successful natural fermentation of carbohydrate-rich food and feed products. Metabolic activities of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a leading role. Their ability to rapidly produce copious amounts of acidic end products with a concomitant pH reduction is the major factor in these fermentations. Although their specific effects are difficult to quantitate, other LAB ...
