Since cheese is poor in energy for bacterial growth, it believed that non-starter lactic acid bacteria growth and flavour development are supported by the nutrients from lysis of starter culture. This study was performed to investigate dynamics interaction between strains cheese. A culture lysate prepared enzymatic digestion tested as a substrate Lactobacillus sp. strains. The two Lactococcus l...

Optimization of Bacillus subtilis (isolate B246) growth conditions for mass cell production under laboratory conditions was investigated as part of a biological control programme. Aspects such as increasing yield using various starter culture volumes, various media and incubation time and temperatures, were studied. No significant differences between starter culture volumes were found. Potato m...

Cocoa beans fermentation is an important step in the post-harvest processing of cocoa beans. This complex mix culture fermentation produces metabolic products that serve as the precursors for the flavor development process. Modification in the dynamics of microbial population during the fermentation may alter the overall microbial activity and thus may impact the fermentation process. Addition ...

Protein profile, in vitro gastrointestinal digestion and antioxidant potential of two fresh cheese samples obtained by kombucha inoculum traditional starter culture have been investigated this study. There is a significant difference protein profile bioactive between samples. Kombucha contains higher proportion protein, predominantly the casein fractions (α-casein β-casein) compared to culture....

Viability of Staphylococcus xylosus isolated from artisanal sausages for application as starter cultures in meat products Viability of Staphylococcus xylosus strains AD1 and U5 isolated from natural fermented sausages was investigated as starter cultures in fermented sausages produced in the South Region of Brazil. The study demonstrated that the Staphylococcus xylosus strains AD1 and U5 showed...

The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) involved during the spontaneous fermentation of cereals (maize,millet, sorghum) for the production of indigenous foods (‘akamu’, ‘kunu-zaki’) were quantified and identified. The lactic acid bacteria counts varied during the fermentation of the cereals while the titratable acidity (TTA) increased with reduction in pH. Identification of isolates using API 50CHL syst...

Starter cultures are those microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, and molds or their combinations) that initiate and carry out the desired fermentation essential in manufacturing cheese and fermented dairy products such as Dahi, Lassi, Yogurt, Sour cream, Kefir, and Koumiss amongst others. Starter culture is defined as “an active microbial preparation, deliberately added to initiate desirable change...
