  1. 1. Fermented probiotic beverage based on quinoa : Functionality, hygiene, and health effects

    Author : Pamela Rosario Canaviri Paz; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Quinoa grains; Fermentation; Lactic acid bacteria; Probiotics; Food safety; Starter culture; Polyphenol compounds; Microbiota composition; Functional food; Gut microbiota;

    Abstract : White quinoa grains were used as a source of novel beneficial microorganisms and as a matrix for development of a fermented plant-based drink. Studies on the quinoa grain microbiota were performed by applying spontaneous fermentation to allow isolation of autochthonous Lactiplantibacillus strains with potential to be used as starter cultures.

    Abstract : Anaemia is a serious public health problem in nearly all developing countries. It has negative consequences on cognitive and physical development of children, reduces work capacity in adults, and increases the risk of maternal and child mortality. READ MORE

  3. 3. Characterization of respiratory physiology in Lactococcus lactis for high-yield production of high-performance starter cultures

    Author : Anna Johanson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; batch cultivations; lag phase; haemin haem; respiration-permissive conditions; aerobic growth; Lactic acid bacteria; acidification activity; continuous cultivations; starter culture production;

    Abstract : Fermented food products are consumed world-wide, every day, and the demand is growing as intake increases. Lactococcus lactis is a lactic acid bacterium commonly used as a starter culture to produce fermented dairy products. READ MORE

  4. 4. Lactobacillus in semi-hard cheese and their use as adjunct cultures

    Author : Martin Antonsson; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Livsmedelsteknik; Food and drink technology; Adjunct culture; NSLAB; Non-starter Lactic acid bacteria; Cheese ripening; Model cheese; Lactobacillus paracasei; Cheese; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : The microflora of Herrgård cheese produced at three dairies was compared after three and six months maturation. The microflora of cheeses from two of the dairies was dominated by a spontaneous microflora of Lactobacillus after three months of ripening, while starter bacteria still dominated in cheese from the third dairy after six months.

  5. 5. Influence of Lactic Acid Fermentation on Enteropathogenic Bacteria. Growth Inhibition in Cereal Gruels and in Human Intestine

    Author : Rose Kingamkono; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intestinal mucosal permeability; enteropathogenic bacteria; enterotoxins; lactic acid fermentation;

    Abstract : Togwa, a lactic-fermented cereal gruel, is widely consumed in Tanzania as a soft drink or used as a complementary food for young children. Studies were conducted to evaluate the potential of togwa to inhibit growth of common enteropathogenic bacteria and heat-labile (LT) enterotoxin production. READ MORE
