The Influence of Maceration on the Biodiversity of Yeasts in the Early Winemaking Stages of White Wine from the Slovak Tokay Wine Region.

This study investigates the effect of maceration and different winemaking techniques on the species diversity of yeasts in white wines from the Slovak Tokay wine region, known for its traditional white wine production. Lipovina grape variety samples were divided into three groups: control (C), macerated (M) and macerated with the addition of a yeast culture (MY). During the entire fermentation process, quantitative and qualitative microbiological analyses of the raw material and must samples were carried out, which resulted in the identification of 60 yeast isolates via the API 20 C AUX biochemical test and MALDI-TOF MS.

Detection of Resistant and Enterotoxigenic Strains of Isolated from Food of Animal Origin.

The topic of this work is the detection of antimicrobial resistance to strains and the genes encoding staphylococcal enterotoxins. It is considered a potential pathogen that can cause various-mostly inflammatory-diseases in immunosuppressed patients. The experimental part of the paper deals with the isolation of individual isolates from meat samples of , , , chicken thigh, beef thigh muscle, pork thigh muscle, and bryndza cheese.

Effects of vacuum packaging conditions on the quality, biochemical changes and the durability of ostrich meat.

In this study, the effects of vacuum packaging conditions on the concentrations of lactic acid, malondialdehyde, pH, microbial and sensory analysis were determined during chilled storage of ostrich meat. Meat was packed as follows: vacuum packed from 1st day (VP-1), vacuum packed from 3rd day (VP-3) and non-vacuum packed (NVP). Analysis were performed at 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st day after slaughter.

Species identification and antimicrobial resistance of coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from the meat of sea fish.

Unlabelled: Seventy-eight isolates of staphylococci obtained from the meat of Theragra chalcogramma, Scomber scombrus, and Clupea harengus were identified and tested in this study. 16S rDNA sequence specific for the genus Staphylococcus was detected in all isolates with the help of PCR method. All of 78 isolates were coagulase-negative, and DNAse activity was only confirmed in 4 of them.
