Fermented cabbage extract contains lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus plantarum which produces tannase enzymes and casei phytase enzymes, are very effective in reducing antinutrient compounds increasing the antioxidant compound foxtail millet flour. This study aimed to determine optimal fermentation time (0, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours) decrease increase of flour using fermented extract. The results s...

Olive mill wastewaters and olive cake are effluents generated during oil production process. They represent a major disposal potentially severe pollution problem for the industry, also promising source of substances high value. The aim this study is valorization wastes (OMWW, cake, twigs leaves) to produce enzymes with industrial biotechnological potential, by solid-state fermentation technique ...

Streptococcus gallolyticus is often found as a normal member of the gut microflora of various animals, while it has been reported to cause mastitis in cattle, septicemia in pigeons, and meningitis, sepsis, and endocarditis in humans (2). The species, which includes strains formerly identified as Streptococcus bovis biotye I and S. bovis biotype II/2, can be distinguished from other related taxa...

Novel and environmentally benign adsorbents were prepared via a simple sulfuric acid treatment process using the wastes of astringent persimmon, a type of biomass waste, along with persimmon tannin extract which is currently employed for the tanning of leather and as natural dyes and paints. The effectiveness of these new biosorbents was exemplified with regards to hydrometallurgical and enviro...

There are a total of 30 strains including 27 strains of Aspergillus niger intended used in Chinese food industry, two strains used as control and one strain isolated from corn for fumonisin (FB) production on 3 media. It was found that FB₂ production by A. niger was function-dependent and highly related to culture media, as well as incubation time. All strains studied were unable to produce FB₁...
