Modelling the biphasic growth of non-starter lactic acid bacteria on starter-lysate as a substrate

Assessment of the Potential of Lactic Acid Bacteria as Dried Starter Culture for Cereal Fermentation

The kinetic growth parameters [maximal specific growth rate μm (h ), and generation time g (h)] and viability after stress treatments (dehydration with glycerol solution of increasing concentration, freezing or heating stress) of four lactic acid bacteria [Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), L. fermentum (LF), Leuconostoc spp. (M1) and Lactococcus spp. (M2)] were determined. The maximal specific grow...

Antibiotics and Lactic Acid Starter Cultures " 2

The problem of antibiotics in milk was brought to light in 1948 by Kastli (1948), who was the first to report specifically that milk from a quarter of an udder treated with penicillin would impair the manufacture of butter and cheese. He found that from 0.1 to 1.0 unit of penicillin per ml of milk was sufficient to inhibit the growth of the widely used starter cultures, Streptococcus cremoris a...

Antibiotic resistances of starter and probiotic strains of lactic acid bacteria.

The antibiotic resistances of 45 lactic acid bacteria strains belonging to the genera Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Lactococcus, Pediococcus, and Leuconostoc were investigated. The objective was to determine antibiotic resistances and to verify these at the genetic level, as is currently suggested by the European "qualified presumption of safety" safety evaluation system for industrial starter ...
