Development of innovative fermented products by exploiting the diversity of immunomodulatory properties and fermentative activity of lactic and propionic acid bacteria.

Many consumers nowadays demand plant-based milk analogs for reasons related to lifestyle, health, diet and sustainability. This has led to the increasing development of new products, fermented or not. The objective of the present study was to develop a plant-based fermented product (based on soy milk analog or on hemp milk analog), as well as mixes, using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and propionic acid bacteria (PAB) strains, as well as consortia thereof.

Data from a proteomic comparative analysis highlight differential adaptation of subsp. to cow milk versus to soy milk environments.

The article presents a proteomic dataset generated by a comparative analysis, using gel-free nanoLC-MS/MS, of the cellular proteome of subsp. , a yogurt starter, when cultivated in soy milk versus in cow milk. The CIRM-BIA1592 strain was cultivated in the aqueous phase of soy milk, or of cow milk.

Dairy starters and fermented dairy products modulate gut mucosal immunity.

The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the regulation of mucosal immunity and of the function of the intestinal barrier. Dysbiosis is accordingly associated with rupture of mucosal immune homeostasis, leading to inflammatory intestinal diseases. In this context, probiotic bacteria, including a new generation of intestinal probiotics, can maintain intestinal homeostasis and promote health.

The stressing life of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus in soy milk.

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus is a beneficial lactic acid bacterium and constitutes one of the most used, and thus consumed, dairy starters, worldwide. This homofermentative bacterium was the first lactobacillus described and is involved in the fermentation of yogurt and of diverse other fermented products, including cheeses.

Differential Adaptation of CIRM-BIA129 to Cow's Milk Soymilk Environments Modulates Its Stress Tolerance and Proteome.

is a beneficial bacterium that modulates the gut microbiota, motility and inflammation. It is traditionally consumed within various fermented dairy products. Changes to consumer habits in the context of food transition are, however, driving the demand for non-dairy fermented foods, resulting in a considerable development of plant-based fermented products that require greater scientific knowledge.

Transcriptome and Volatilome Analysis During Growth of in Food: Role of Food Substrate and Strain Specificity for the Expression of Spoilage Functions.

is one of the main spoilers in food, responsible for meat and seafood spoilage through the production of malodorous volatile organic compounds. The molecules produced by this bacterium depend on the substrate (meat or seafood) and the storage conditions such as gas mixtures used in the packaging. It seems also that the spoilage potential is strain dependent as production of diacetyl and acetoin, two molecules responsible for seafood spoilage, varies with strains.

Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of the food spoilage bacterium Brochothrix thermosphacta.

Microbial food spoilage is responsible for significant economic losses. Brochothrix thermosphacta is one of the major bacteria involved in the spoilage of meat and seafood. Its growth and metabolic activities during food storage result in the production of metabolites associated with off-odors.

One complete and three draft genome sequences of four strains, CD 337, TAP 175, BSAS1 3 and EBP 3070.

is one of the dominant bacterial species associated with spoilage of chilled meat and seafood products through the production of various metabolites responsible for off-odors. However, metabolic pathways leading to meat and seafood spoilage are not all well known. The production of spoiling molecules seems to depend both on strains and on food matrix.
