Growth of facultatively heterofermentative lactobacilli on starter cell suspensions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The growth of facultatively heterofermentative lactobacilli (FHL) on cell suspensions of the homofermentative Lactobacillus helveticus was investigated. Osmotic lysis of L. helveticus led to a significant increase of ribose. It decreased steadily in parallel with the growth of FHL, strongly suggesting that the bacteria used ribose as a growth substrate.

Dušková M., Karpíšková R. (2013): Antimicrobial resistance of lactobacilli isolated from food. Czech J. Food Sci., 31: 27–32. Bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus are of great benefit in many areas of life. They are widely used in food industry, in particular as part of starter cultures for fermented dairy and meat products, but also in human and veterinary medicine as probiotics. The increasing...
متن کاملCharacterisation and biochemical properties of predominant lactic acid bacteria from fermenting cassava for selection as starter cultures.
A total of 375 lactic acid bacteria were isolated from fermenting cassava in South Africa, Benin, Kenya and Germany, and were characterised by phenotypic and genotypic tests. These could be divided into five main groups comprising strains of facultatively heterofermentative rods, obligately heterofermentative rods, heterofermentative cocci, homofermentative cocci and obligately homofermentative...

متن کاملA Genomic View of Lactobacilli and Pediococci Demonstrates that Phylogeny Matches Ecology and Physiology.
Lactobacilli are used widely in food, feed, and health applications. The taxonomy of the genus Lactobacillus, however, is confounded by the apparent lack of physiological markers for phylogenetic groups of lactobacilli and the unclear relationships between the diverse phylogenetic groups. This study used the core and pan-genomes of 174 type strains of Lactobacillus and Pediococcus to establish ...

A novel slow-growing, obligatory heterofermentative, nonstarter lactic acid bacterium (NSLAB), Lactobacillus wasatchensis WDC04, was studied for growth and gas production in Cheddar-style cheese made using Streptococcus thermophilus as the starter culture. Cheesemaking trials were conducted using S. thermophilus alone or in combination with Lb. wasatchensis deliberately added to cheese milk at ...
