Carnosus Culture and Celery Concentrate Addition

Draft Genome Sequence of Staphylococcus carnosus subsp. utilis LTH 7013, Isolated from South Tyrolean Ham

Staphylococcus carnosus is used as a starter culture in meat fermentation, where it contributes to color formation and produces aromatic compounds. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of an S. carnosus subsp. utilis strain, LTH 7013, isolated from South Tyrolean ham, with potential application as a starter culture.

The Effect of pH and Nitrite Concentration from Celery Juice Concentrate in Ham Slices on the Antimicrobial Impact and Ham Quality Effects of Celery Juice Concentrate Compared with Conventional Sodium Nitrite

Using fusions with luxAB from Vibrio harveyi MAV to quantify induction and catabolite repression of the xyl operon in Staphylococcus carnosus TM300.

The luxA,B genes from the Gram-negative marine bacterium Vibrio harveyi MAV were used in Staphylococcus carnosus TM300 as a reporter system for regulated expression of xylose utilization. The luciferase genes were fused to the xyl operon from Staphylococcus xylosus C2a. Expression of bioluminescence was induced through addition of xylose and repressed in the presence of glucose. A method to qua...

A Review of the Antioxidant Activity of Celery (Apium graveolens L)

Plants are an important source of natural active products that are different, based on mechanism and biological properties. Celery ( Apium graveolens L) is a plant from the apiaceae family and phenolic and antioxidant compounds of this plant have been studied by several scientists. The aim of this study was to review systematically the antioxidant activity of celery. Required articles were sear...

Staphy/ococcus carnosus TM300

* Department of Genetics and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University, 61 137 Brno, Czech Republic A genome map of Staphylococcus carnosus TM300, an important microorganism in the food industry and long used as a starter culture, was constructed by pulsed-f ield gel electrophoresis of DNA fragments obtained after digestion with Notl, Sfil and Apal. The size of the chromosome wa...
