Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how two strains of acetic acid bacteria (AF01 and CV01) from apple and cactus fruits affect vinegar quality, particularly focusing on their ability to produce acetic and gluconic acids during fermentation at high temperatures.
- - Both strains were identified as *Acetobacter pasteurianus*, and the fermentation process revealed that while AF01 predominantly produced acetic acid, CV01 managed to produce both acetic and gluconic acids simultaneously.
- - CV01 showed greater resilience to ethanol depletion and had superior enzyme activity at higher temperatures (38°C), compared to a standard strain, suggesting its potential for more effective vinegar production in warmer conditions.
During the 2003 and 2004 olive oil production campaigns in Morocco, 136 samples from spoiled olive and olive cake were analyzed and 285 strains were isolated in pure culture. Strains included 167 mesophilic strains belonging to ten genera: Penicillium, Aspergillus, Geotrichum, Mucor, Rhizopus, Trichoderma, Alternaria, Acremonium, Humicola, Ulocladium as well as 118 thermophilic strains isolated in 2003 and 2004, mainly belonging to six species: Aspergillus fumigatus, Paecilomyces variotii, Mucor pusillus, Thermomyces lanuginosus, Humicola grisea, and Thermoascus aurantiacus. Penicillium and Aspergillus, respectively, 32.

The purpose of the workshop was to list the different techniques and definitions used by scientists for assessing mould germination and to evaluate the influence of the different techniques on the experimental results. Recommendations were made when a large consensus was obtained.
