objective: this study aimed to assess the destructive effects of citric acid, lactic acid and acetic acid produced from the fermentation of foods on primary teeth enamel.   methods: this in vitro, experimental study was conducted on 24 sound primary teeth. the teeth were polished with a fine abrasive paper under running water. tooth pieces measuring 3 × 4 × 3mm were cut out of the teeth and sto...

Every year large amounts of residues accumulate from potato processing. The aim of this study is to develop a process to valorize these residues as feedstock for lactic acid fermentation in a way that is suitable for industrial production. An enzymatic hydrolysate obtained from potato residues (46 % w/w dry mass starch) was used as a substrate in batch and fed-batch fermentations with Lactobaci...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is a heterotrophic Gram-positive bacteria which under goes lactic acid fermentations and leads to production of lactic acid as an end product. LAB includes Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus, Lactococcus and Streptococcus which are grouped together in the family lactobacillaceae. LAB shows numerous antimicrobial activities due to production of antibacterial and a...

Bioconversion of aglycone-formed isoflavones from glycoside-formed isoflavones by commercial lactic acid bacteria in fermented soybean paste was evaluated. Enterococcus faecium KCTC 13410 showed the most resistant capacity and Lactobacillus acidophilus KCTC 3925 had a sensitive susceptibility at a high NaCl concentration (13.2%) in fermented soybean paste. Among the 5 strains tested, Lac. acido...

BACKGROUND The transition from a petroleum-based economy towards more sustainable bioprocesses for the production of fuels and chemicals (circular economy) is necessary to alleviate the impact of anthropic activities on the global ecosystem. Lignocellulosic biomass-derived sugars are suitable alternative feedstocks that can be fermented or biochemically converted to value-added products. An exa...

introduction using agricultural-industrial waste is one way to overcome the shortage of animal feed. potato is one of the most important products in the world after rice, wheat and maize. potato pulp is a by-product which remains after extraction of starch, and can be used as animal feed. because of the high moisture content of the potato pulp, silage is the best way to maintain it. however, it...

AIMS The overall kinetics of the fermentation of four oat fractions obtained by debranning using three potentially probiotic lactic acid bacteria were investigated. The main objective was to study the suitability of these fractions as fermentation media for the growth and the metabolic production of bacteria isolated from human intestine. METHODS AND RESULTS The cell growth, lactic acid produ...

Lactic acid plays an important role in industrial applications ranging from the food industry to life sciences. The growing demand for lactic creates urgent need find economical and sustainable substrates production. Agricultural waste is rich nutrients needed microbial growth. Fermentative production of non-food-competing agricultural could reduce cost while addressing environmental concerns. ...

Although direct evidence of a quantitative relationship between oxygen debt and lactic acid production in man has never been given, there is general agreement with A. V. Hill’s hypothesis that the oxygen debt is due to the delayed oxidation of a fraction of the lactic acid produced during the anaerobi .c processes of muscular activity. After the “revolution” produced in muscle physiology by the...

objectives: to assess the effect of lactic acid (la) on microleakage of silorane-based composite restorations and methacrylate-based composites with self-etch and etch-and-rinse bonding systems. materials and methods: class v cavities were prepared in 120 extracted human teeth, divided into four groups and restored as follows: 1. silorane-based composite+p90 adhesive system (p90); 2. filtek z25...
