ArcelorMittal is a key supplier for electrical steels in challenging applications such as high power density automotive traction machines and high speed induction machines for industry and power generation systems. Throughout the years we have focused on understanding the specific needs of each electrical machine type and aimed at developing electrical steels to optimally meet these machine dem...

We investigated the effect of capsular and ropy exopolysaccharide-producing Streptococcus thermophilus starter bacteria on Mozzarella cheese functionality and whey viscosity. Mozzarella cheeses were manufactured with Lactobacillus helveticus LH100 paired with one of four S. thermophilus strains: MR-1C, a bacterium that produces a capsular exopolysaccharide; MTC360, a strain that secretes a ropy...

Here, we summarize the composition and uses of Schizosaccharomyces pombe media and discuss key issues for consideration in the generation of S. pombe cultures. We discuss the concept of "culture memory," in which the growth state and stress experienced by a strain during storage, propagation, and starter culture preparation can alter experimental outcomes at later stages. We also describe the t...

It has been observed that Lactobacillus acidophilus has poor survivability in fermented goats’ milk. In this study, interactions between L. acidophilus and starter cultures during goats’ milk fermentation were investigated using three strains of L. acidophilus: ATCC-11975, LA-5 and NCFM, and the starter cultures (Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (LB350) and Streptococcus thermophilus...
