The Role of the Surface Smear Microbiome in the Development of Defective Smear on Surface-Ripened Red-Smear Cheese
AIMS Microbiology, 4(4): 622–641. DOI: 10.3934/microbiol.2018.4.622 Received: 29 June 2018 Accepted: 20 September 2018 Published: 25 October 2018 http://www.aimspress.com/journal/microbiology Research article The role of the surface smear microbiome in the development of defective smear on surface-ripened red-smear cheese Jasmine S.

Abstract: The complex smear microbiota colonizing the surface of red-smear cheese fundamentally impacts the ripening process, appearance and shelf life of cheese. To decipher the prokaryotic composition of the cheese smear microbiome, the surface of a semi-hard surface ripened cheese was studied post-ripening by culture-based and culture-independent molecular approaches. The aim was to detect potential bacterial alterations in the composition of the cheese smear microbiota resulting from cheese storage in vacuum film-prepackaging, which is often accompanied by the development of a surface smear defect. Next-generation sequencing of amplified 16S rRNA gene fragments revealed an unexpected high diversity of a total of 132 different genera from the domains Bacteria and Archaea on the cheese surface. Beside typical smear organisms, our study revealed the presence of several microorganisms so far not associated with cheese, but related to milk, farm and cheese dairy environments.

Each strain showed higher 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (>98.75%) and formed a robust phylogenetic clade with closest species of the phylum Actinobacteria which were defined with valid names, already. There is no official description on these 62 actinobacterial species in Korea. Consequently, unrecorded 62 species of 25 genera in the 14 families belonging to the order Actinomycetales of the phylum Actinobacteria were found in Korea.

The isolate was a motile, Gram-positive, short rod, forming coryneform V-shaped cells during the early stages of growth. The organism was strictly aerobic and able to grow between 22 and 36 6C and between pH 5.5 and 8.0. The predominant fatty acids were cyclohexyl-C17 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0, the major respiratory quinones were menaquinone 11 (MK-11) and 12 (MK-12), and the genomic DNA G+C content was 68 mol%. The peptidoglycan contained the diagnostic diamino acids ornithine and 2,4-diaminobutyric acid and was of acetyl type. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that this isolate belongs to the family Microbacteriaceae with the type strains of the species Leifsonia xyli (96 % gene sequence similarity), Leifsonia shinshuensis (96 %), Leifsonia naganoensis (95 %), Leifsonia aquatica (95 %), Agromyces ramosus (95 %) and Curtobacterium citreum (95 %) among the closest phylogenetic neighbours. The phylogenetic analysis and phenetic characteristics support the proposal of a new genus and a novel species, with the name Humibacter albus gen.

In this thesis, aerobic communities involved in several key biogeochemical processes in OSPW were studied. Degradation of several key hydrocarbons was analyzed in depth. Benzene and naphthalene were used as models for aromatic hydrocarbons, in which their oxidation rates, degrading communities, and degradation pathways in OSPW were researched. The potential oxidation rates were 36.7 μmol L-1 day-1 for benzene and 85.4 μmol L-1 day-1 for naphthalene.

Box 80.121, 3508 TA Utrecht, the 10 Netherlands Correspondence to Nadine T. Smit ([email protected]) Abstract. Soil bacteria rank among the most diverse groups of organisms on Earth and actively impact global processes of carbon cycling, especially in the emission of greenhouse gases like methane, CO2 and higher gaseous hydrocarbons. An abundant group of soil bacteria are the mycobacteria, which colonize various habitatsterrestrial, marine and anthropogenic 15 environments due to their impermeable cell envelope that contains remarkable lipids. These bacteria have been found to be highly abundant at petroleum and gas seep areas, where they might utilize the released hydrocarbons. However, the function and the lipid biomarker inventory of these soil mycobacteria are poorly studied. Here, soils from the Fuoco di Censo seep, an everlasting fire (gas seep) in Sicily, Italy, were investigated for the presence of mycobacteria via 16S rRNA gene sequencing and fatty acid profiling.
