The heterocyclic amine 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenyl-imidazolium [4, 5-B] pyridine (PhIP), commonly found in roasted meat products, is considered a potential carcinogen. This study is to explore the underlying mechanisms involved in the adsorption of PhIP by lactic acid bacteria 37X-15 and its peptidoglycan. The scanning electron microscope results suggested that the strain's adsorption on PhIP occurs on the cell wall, primarily composed of peptidoglycan.

A composite protective agent, composed of 15% skim milk powder and 10% trehalose, was used, and bacterial mud was mixed with the protective agent at a 1:1.2 mass ratio.

We investigated the bacteria of the microbial community, volatile flavor components, and biogenic amines of Inner Mongolia beef jerky via high-throughput sequencing, solid-phase microextraction with gas chromatography−mass spectrometry, and high-performance liquid chromatography, respectively. Thirty-three bacteria were identified, predominantly from the genera Pseudomonas (45.

A study was performed to examine the effects of starter culture on the physical−chemical quality, flavor, and biogenic amines (BAs) during fermentation and ripening. At the end of fermentation, the pH value of the BL4-8 group (4.
