The long-term propagation of Sourdough sourdoughs eliminates dispersal limitation and consistently leads to sourdough microbiota that are composed of Microbiota host adapted lactobacilli. In contrast, community assembly in spontaneous cereal fermentations is limited by Evolution dispersal and nomadic or environmental lactic acid bacteria are the first colonizers of these sourdoughs. Bread leavening Propagation of sourdoughs for use as sole leavening agent (type I sourdoughs) dictates fermentation condi- tions that select for rapid growth. Type I wheat- and rye sourdoughs are consistently populated by insect-adapted lactobacilli, particularly Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis, which is characterized by a small genome size and a re- stricted metabolic potential. The diverse fermentation conditions employed in industrial or artisanal Type II sourdough fermentation processes also result in a more diverse microbiota. Nevertheless, type II sourdoughs are typically populated by vertebrate host adapted lactobacilli of the L. delbrueckii and L. reuteri groups. Metabolic traits of host-adapted lactobacilli that enhance competitiveness in intestinal ecosystems also provide technolo- gical functionality in bread making. Examples include formation of exopolysaccharides, arginine-, glutamine- and glutamate based mechanisms of acid resistance, and glycosyl hydrolases that reduce FODMAP levels in sourdough and sourdough bread. In conclusion, consideration of the lifestyle of sourdough lactobacilli facilitates the selection of competitive and functional sourdough starter cultures. 1. Introduction used in most European baked goods with the primary aim to improve bread quality (Brandt, 2007; Pontonio et al., 2017). Sourdough has been traditionally used as leavening agent for bread Different technological aims of sourdough fermentation – leavening, and steamed bread.

Bolten3 and Christoph Wittmann1* Abstract Background: Plant‑based milk alternatives are more popular than ever, and chickpea‑based milks are among the most commercially relevant products. Unfortunately, limited nutritional value because of low levels of the essential amino acid L‑lysine, low digestibility and unpleasant taste are challenges that must be addressed to improve product quality and meet consumer expectations. Results: Using in-silico screening and food safety classifcations, 31 strains were selected as potential L‑lysine pro‑ ducers from approximately 2,500 potential candidates. Benefcially, 30% of the isolates signifcantly accumulated amino acids (up to 1.4 mM) during chickpea milk fermentation, increasing the natural level by up to 43%. The best‑ performing strains, B. amyloliquefaciens NCC 156 and L. paracasei subsp. paracasei NCC 2511, were tested further. De novo lysine biosynthesis was demonstrated in both strains by 13C metabolic pathway analysis. Spiking small amounts of citrate into the fermentation signifcantly activated L‑lysine biosynthesis in NCC 156 and stimulated growth. Both microbes revealed additional benefts in eliminating indigestible sugars such as stachyose and rafnose and convert‑ ing of‑favour aldehydes into the corresponding alcohols and acids with fruity and sweet notes.

Submitted: July 17, 2010; Returned to authors for corrections: June 22, 2011; Approved: January 16, 2012. ABSTRACT Lactobacillus reuteri LPB P01-001 was isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of wild swine and was characterised by biochemical testing and sequencing of gene 16S rRNA. A simple and low-cost culture medium based on cane sugar (2.5% p/v) and yeast extract (1% p/v) was used in the production of this probiotic. The fermentative conditions were a) pH control at 6.5 and b) no pH control; both were set at 37°C in a 12 L slightly stirred tank bioreactor. Fermentation parameters such as the specific growth rate, productivity and yield of biomass, lactic and acetic acid levels were determined. L. reuteri LPB P01-001 behaves as an aciduric bacteria because it grows better in a low pH medium without pH control. However, the lactic acid production yield was practically half (9.22 g.L-1) of that obtained under a constant pH of 6.5, which reached 30.5 g.L-1 after 28 hours of fermentation. The acetic acid production was also higher under pH-controlled fermentation, reaching 10.09 g.L-1 after 28 hours of fermentation.

Sourdough is one of the most promising technologies for gluten-free bread. The selection of appropriate starter cultures for the production of gluten-free sourdoughs is of a great importance, since not all microorganisms can adapt equally to the same raw material. The aim was to create a new starter microbial composition for gluten-free sourdough preparation, allowing improving the quality and the microbiological safety of gluten-free bread. Screening was conducted on 8 strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and 5 strains of yeast previously isolated from spontaneously fermenting rice and buckwheat sourdoughs. The strain S. cerevisiae Y205 had the highest fermentative activity and alcohols content. The lactic acid bacteria L. brevis E139 and L. plantarum Е138 were also experimentally selected for new gluten-free sourdoughs on the basis of acidity and volatile acids production and antagonistic activity. Two types of microbial composition were created and its influence on sourdough biotechnological indicators was studied. Sourdough with L. plantarum Е138 had in 1.2 times lower titratable acidity, in 3.4 times lower volatile acids content compared to sourdough with L.

Abstract Probiotics have been defined a number of times. Presently the most common definition is that from the FAO/WHO which states that probiotics are “live microorganisms that, administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.” One of the most significant groups of probiotic organisms are the lactic acid bacteria, commonly used in fermented dairy products. There is an increase in interest in these species as research is beginning to reveal the many possible health benefits associated with lactic acid bacteria. The difficulty in identifying and classifying strains has complicated research, since benefits may only be relevant to particular strains. Nevertheless, lactic acid bacteria have a number of well-established and potential benefits. They can improve lactose digestion, play a role in preventing and treating diarrhea and act on the immune system, helping the body to resist and fight infection.

It is a national staple in Ethiopia that is eaten daily in virtually every household. Despite the fact that injera is a favorite staple food, starters have not been evaluated for the production of rice-based injera. Combination of starter cultures of lactic acid (Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum) and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and irsho (back slopping) were used to ferment rice batter during 96 h. Changes in pH, titratable acidity (TA) and microbial count were analyzed at 6 h intervals and consumer acceptability was done at 24 h and 48 h. LAB starters and their co-cultures yeast decreased pH from 6.35 to 4.5 and increased titratable acidity from 0.33% to 0.95% (lactic acid w/w ) within 18-24 h while in the spontaneous fermentation with traditional irsho it took 48 h-54 h to attain pH and titratable acidity value of 0.38% and 0.93%, respectively.

These latter strains were Gram-positive, catalase-negative, non- spore-forming, non-motile rods that could be clearly differentiated from known species by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. For further characterization, the morphological, physiological (sugar fermentation, formation of DL-lactate, hydrolysis of arginine, growth temperature, CO2 production) and chemotaxonomic (GMC content, cell wall composition, SDS-PAGE of whole-cell proteins) properties were determined. Fitting of the complete 16S rDNA sequence into alignments of such sequences, together with the subsequent phylogenetic calculations, allowed the reconstruction of a phylogenetic tree. These data showed that the two strains were phylogenetically related but formed an independent cluster distinct from their closest neighbours, L. pontis, Lactobacillus panis, Lactobacillus oris, Lactobacillus vaginalis and Lactobacillus reuteri. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments indicated that the two isolates represent a new Lactobacillus species, for which the name Lactobacillus frumenti is proposed; the type strain of this species is DSM 13145T (l LMG 19473T).
