Consumers and the food industry are demanding healthier products. Expanded snacks with a high nutritional value were developed from different rice, pea carob flour blends. The proximate composition, starch (total resistant), amylose amylopectin, dietary fiber (soluble insoluble) contents, in vitro protein digestibility of rice-legume formulations, evaluated before after extrusion process. Compared corresponding non-extruded blends (control), treatment did not change total content, however,...
Dairy-borne Pseudomonas spp., known for causing spoilage, may also exhibit antibiotic resistance and form biofilms, enhancing their persistence in dairy environments contaminating final products. This study examined biofilm formation 106 spp. strains isolated from milk, whey, spoiled Phylogenetic analysis (based on partial ileS sequences) grouped most within the P. fluorescens group, clustering into fluorescens, gessardii, koorensis, fragi subgroups. Biofilm polystyrene microplates was...
Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) is a tasty, polyphenol-rich tropical fruit. The edible part highly appreciated by its aroma, taste and texture. non-edible part, rich in polyphenols, has been traditionally used Thai medicine. In this work, flavonoids phenolic acid/derivatives were identified mangosteen extracts (ME) from portions. We first studied the effects of MEs on growth, metabolism, antioxidant capacity, biofilm formation antimicrobial capacity eight bifidobacteria lactobacilli...
Lytic bacteriophages (phages) offer a great potential as biocontrol agents for spoilage Clostridium tyrobutyricum, responsible butyric acid fermentation in semi-hard and hard ripened cheeses, resulting late gas blowing defect. With this aim, we have isolated, identified characterized new lytic phages of C. evaluated their efficacy to control cheese by adding them manufacture milk. Silage, soil, milk from dairy farms were screened anti-clostridial phages, obtaining 96 isolates active against...
Changes in nitrogen compounds during ripening of 40 batches Manchego cheese made from raw milk (24 batches) or pasteurized (16 at five different dairies throughout the year were investigated. After for six months, degradation p-kappa- and beta-caseins was more intense alpha(s2)-casein cheese. Milk pasteurization had no significant effect on breakdown alpha(s1)-casein. Hydrophobic peptide content did not differ between cheese, whereas hydrophilic higher There differences seasons residual...
Bacteriophages and their endolysins are potential biocontrol agents for the anaerobic spoilage organism Clostridium tyrobutyricum, which causes cheese late blowing defect. This study sequenced compared genomes of eight bacteriophages from Spanish dairy farms that were active against C. to identify novel species phage proteins. Phages vB_CtyS-FA67 vB_CtyS-FA70 shared >94% intergenomic similarity each other but neither had significant ΦCTP1, unique tyrobutyricum date. Taxonomic analysis...
Healthy non-bovine functional dairy products are reaching high interest among consumers. In the present study, an aqueous polyphenol-rich Moringa oleifera extract (MoE) and a Bifidobacterium strain of human origin (B. pseudolongum INIA P2) were added, alone or in combination, for manufacture three experimental one control sheep milk cheeses. general, addition 2.05 g lyophilized MoE per 100 curd did not affect cheese dry matter lactococci starter counts during ripening. B. P2 showed good...
The aim of the present work was selection aromatic plant essential oils (EOs) and/or ethanolic extracts (EEs) to prevent late blowing defect (LBD) cheese caused by Clostridium spp. EEs resulted more effective than EOs inhibit dairy-borne in vitro. Savory, hyssop, lavender and tarragon EEs, which showed lowest minimal inhibitory concentration against tyrobutyricum, were selected study prevention LBD this bacterium cheese. Addition savory milk delayed 2 weeks, but at end ripening these cheeses...
There is a growing interest for healthy non-bovine functional dairy products. Therefore, in the present study, an aqueous polyphenol-rich artichoke extract (AE) and two Bifidobacterium strains of human origin (B. pseudolongum INIA P2 B. longum P132) were added, alone or combination with AE, manufacture six sheep milk cheeses. In general, addition 1.25 g lyophilized AE per 100 curd did not affect cheese pH, dry matter, lactoccci starter counts organic acid levels during ripening....
During coffee production, the removal and disposal of bean-surrounding layers pose an environmental problem. In this work, we examined effects several aqueous cherry extracts on growth metabolism, biofilm formation, antioxidant capacity antimicrobial activity six lactobacilli from INIA collection a commercial probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG strain. Growth medium supplementation with different (at 40%) stimulated strain metabolism. The ground pulp extract (CPE) highest total polyphenol...
