Abstract BACKGROUND Foxtail millet ( Setaria italica ) bran is a by‐product of processing, rich in dietary fiber (DF) and has great application value. A comparative study was conducted to explore the differences structural functional properties among DF, soluble (SDF) insoluble (IDF). RESULTS There significant difference content monosaccharides between SDF IDF, which xylose, arabinose glucose were main compositions. The results scanning electron microscopy showed that DF IDF had different...
In this study, the influence of ultrasound-assisted resting at different power on rheological properties, water distribution and structural characteristics dough with 50 % surimi as well texture, cooking microstructure surimi-wheat noodles were investigated. Compared fermentation control (FC) noodles, microstructure, texture (≤24.00 W/L) significantly (p < 0.05) improved after ultrasonic treating. As increasing power, compared to FC, creep strain, recovery semi-bound water, free sulfhydryl...
Lactobacillus plantarum strain ST-III, a probiotic with several functions, was isolated from kimchi. Here we report the complete genome sequence of ST-III and compared it two published L. genomes.
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which are characterized by producing various functional metabolites, including antioxidants, organic acids, and antimicrobial compounds, widely used in the food industry to improve gut health prevent growth of spoilage microorganisms. With continual incidence foodborne disease advocacy consumers for health, LAB have been designated as vital biopreservative agents recent years. Therefore, with excellent properties environmental tolerance should be explored further....
Secreted proteins are one of the direct molecular mechanisms by which microbiota influence host, thus constituting a promising field for drug discovery. Here, through bioinformatics-guided screening secretome clinically established probiotics from Lactobacillus, we identify an uncharacterized secreted protein (named LPH here) that is shared most these probiotic strains (8/10) and demonstrate it protects female mice colitis in multiple models. Functional studies show bi-functional...
The contamination of fermented feeds and foods with fungi mycotoxins is a major food safety issue worldwide. Certain lactic acid bacteria (LAB), generally recognized as safe (GRAS) fermentation probiotics, are able to reduce microbial contamination. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus (L.) plantarum Q1-2 L. salivarius Q27-2 antifungal properties were screened inoculants for mixed fermenting feed, the nutritional qualities, community, feed analyzed at different periods (1, 3, 7, 15, 30 days,...
The aim of this research was to obtain an apple juice with a strong antioxidant effect through the fermentation mixed lactic acid bacteria. Lactobacillus plantarum and casei were selected combined as strains from six effects amount inoculated bacteria, temperature, time on capacity sensory score investigated. optimal technological conditions follows: inoculation 3%, temperature 37 °C, h, which determined single-factor experiments Box–Behnken design. Under these conditions, DPPH scavenging...
Probiotics have attracted attention due to their multiple health benefits the host. Yaks inhabiting Tibetan plateau exhibit excellent disease resistance and tolerance, which may be associated with inner probiotics. Currently, research on probiotics mainly focuses positive effects host, but information regarding genome remains unclear. To reveal potential functional genes of Bacillus subtilis isolated from yaks, we sequenced its whole genome. Results indicated that genomic length was...
Lactobacillus casei LC2W, a patented probiotic strain (Z. Wu, European patent EP 1642963 B1, February 2009), has been isolated from Chinese traditional dairy products and implemented in industrial production as starter culture. Here we present the complete genome sequence of LC2W identification gene cluster implicated biosynthesis exopolysaccharides.
Esterases (ESTs) play important roles in metabolizing various physiologically endogenous and exogenous compounds, environmental xenobiotics insects. The psocid, Liposcelis bostrychophila is a major pest of stored products worldwide rapidly develops resistance to commonly insecticides. However, the involvement ESTs insecticide metabolization application RNAi approach psocids have not been well elucidated. In this study, we characterized four LbEST genes investigated transcriptional levels...
Abstract Background As an adequate plant protein raw material, soybean meal has attracted extensive attention because of its high content, abundant amino acids essential for animals, and many functional nutrients. Feed fermentation is a new way to improve nutrient absorption animals by inoculating microorganisms, which can also play probiotic role. In order screen the lactic acid bacteria with remarkable protease-producing performance excellent growth characteristics, 1000 strains isolated...
Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis strain V9 is a Chinese commercial bifidobacteria with several probiotic functions. It was isolated from healthy Mongolian child in China. We present here the complete genome sequence of and compare it to 3 other published sequences B. strains. The result indicates lack polymorphism among strains this subspecies different continents.
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strain ND02 is a Chinese commercial dairy starter used for the manufacture of yoghurt. It was isolated from naturally fermented yak milk in Qinghai, China. Here, we report main genome features and several differences with two other published genomes strains.
ABSTRACT Lactobacillus casei BD-II, a patented probiotic strain (U.S. patent 7,270,994 B2), was isolated from homemade koumiss in China and has been implemented the industrial production as starter cultures. Here we report complete genome sequence of which shows high similarity with well-studied BL23.
Lactobacillus helveticus strain H10 was isolated from traditional fermented milk in Tibet, China. We sequenced the whole genome of and compared it to published sequence DPC4571.
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) causes inflammation in multiple organs of chickens called avian colibacillosis, and results serious economic loss to the chicken industry. Polyphenolic compounds possess a wide range physiological activities that may contribute their beneficial effects against inflammation-related diseases. In this study, curative effect mechanism action polyphenolic extracts from Punica granatum L. Terminalia chebula Retz. challenged with APEC were studied....
In this study, the gene of γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BaGGT) controlled by Plac promoter was cloned into subtilis to construct two recombinant vectors with either one or signal peptides drive extracellular secretion. After optimization, 90 ± 0.2 mg/L BaGGT obtained when inducing conditions were 24 h and 80 μM (IPTG). The properties measured, showing that optimal reaction 40 °C pH 9.0 55.0 0.5 U/mg enzymatic activity. Km Vmax 0.214 mM 88.13 μmol/min/mg....
Abstract Background and objectives The present work evaluated how the incorporation of passion fruit epicarp flour (PFEF), as a source dietary fiber polyphenols, influenced quality, in vitro starch digestibility, antioxidant activity cookies. Findings Wheat was replaced by PFEF at different levels ranging from 3% to 9%. cookies containing 6% produced darken color harder texture. cookies’ consumer acceptance did not substantially change when addition is 6%, but becomes 9%, significantly...
