Characteristics and in vitro properties of potential probiotic strain Fructobacillus tropaeoli KKP 3032 isolated from orange juice.

Fructobacillus, a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultative anaerobic bacterium, belongs to the fructophilic lactic acid bacteria (FLAB) group. The group's name originates from fructose, the favored carbon source for its members. Fructobacillus spp.

Depiction of the In Vitro and Genomic Basis of Resistance to Hop and High Hydrostatic Pressure of Isolated from Spoiled Beer.

Among the beer-spoiling microorganisms, the dominant ones belong to the genera , , , and . It is assumed that resistance to hop bitters correlates with resistance to other factors and can significantly impact the brewing industry. Beer preservation with high hydrostatic pressure eliminates the spoiling microorganisms while preserving all desired properties of the beer.

Genomic Analysis and In Vitro Investigation of the Hop Resistance Phenotype of Two Novel Strains, Isolated from Spoiled Beer.

is an important beer-spoiling species, exhibiting high hop tolerance. Here, we present the annotated whole genome sequence of two recently isolated strains, KKP 3565 and KKP 3566. Firstly, to study the genetic basis of the persistence of the two isolates in beer, a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis ensued.

Research on the Electron Structure and Antimicrobial Properties of Mandelic Acid and Its Alkali Metal Salts.

This article investigated the structure, and the spectroscopic and antimicrobial properties of mandelic acid and its alkali metal salts. The electron charge distribution and aromaticity in the analyzed molecules were investigated using molecular spectroscopy methods (FT-IR, FT-Raman, H NMR, and C NMR) and theoretical calculations (structure, NBO, HOMO, LUMO, energy descriptors, and theoretical IR and NMR spectra). The B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method was used in the calculations.
