Alicyclobacillus spp. Control in the Fruit Juice Industry
نویسنده
چکیده
The definition of food quality may differ for processors and consumers, but generally organoleptic characteristics, such as flavour, odour and appearance, as well as extended shelf life are among the most important of its attributes. Spoilage of food by microbial contamination may occur at any point during production, altering any one or all of these characteristics renders the product unusable and results in financial damage for the food manufacturer.

Detection of Alicyclobacillus spp. in Fruit Juice by Combination of Immunomagnetic Separation and a SYBR Green I Real-Time PCR Assay
An approach based on immunomagnetic separation (IMS) and SYBR Green I real-time PCR (real-time PCR) with species-specific primers and melting curve analysis was proposed as a rapid and effective method for detecting Alicyclobacillus spp. in fruit juices. Specific primers targeting the 16S rDNA sequences of Alicyclobacillus spp. were designed and then confirmed by the amplification of DNA extrac...
متن کاملRapid discrimination of Alicyclobacillus strains in apple juice by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
Alicyclobacillus spp. are thermoacidophilic, spore-forming bacteria. Some of which cause spoilage in pasteurized and heat-treated apple juice products through the production of guaiacol. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used to discriminate between eight Alicyclobacillus strains (WAC, 81-2, Oly#21, 51-1, KF, 1016, 1101, and A-Gala A4) in apple juice. FT-IR vibrational combina...
متن کاملDevelopment of novel agar media for isolating guaiacol producing Alicyclobacillus spp.
The purpose of this study is to develop a selective and differential medium (SK2 agar) for isolating guaiacol producing Alicyclobacillus. Forty-one selected dyes and vanillic acid were incorporated in SK agar for screening selective and differential agents. Two guaiacol producing (1016, 1101) and two non-guaiacol producing (19220, C-GD 1-1) Alicyclobacillus isolates were streaked onto media and...
متن کاملDiscrimination between Bacillus and Alicyclobacillus isolates in apple juice by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and multivariate analysis.
Alicyclobacillus is a causative agent of spoilage in pasteurized and heat-treated apple juice products. Differentiating between this genus and the closely related Bacillus is crucially important. In this study, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was used to identify and discriminate between 4 Alicyclobacillus strains and 4 Bacillus isolates inoculated individually into apple juice....
متن کاملPhylogenetic and spectroscopic analysis of Alicyclobacillus isolates by 16S rDNA sequencing and mid-infrared spectroscopy
Alicyclobacillus spp. are a group of thermophilic, acidophilic, spore-forming bacteria, some of which cause spoilage in commercially pasteurized fruit and vegetable juice products including apple, orange, tomato and carrot juice. In this study, we characterized seven isolates of Alicyclobacillus (14-2, KF, A-Gala 2-1, C-Fuji 6, Gala 9-2, 1016, 18-1) and a reference strain A. acidiphilus DSM 145...
