Aims: To determine the profile of volatile compounds responsible for the aroma of Soumbala produced spontaneously and with pure and mixed cultures of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus pumilus.
Methods And Results: Traditional and controlled fermentation trials of African locust bean with pure and mixed starter cultures of B. subtilis (B7, B9 and B15) and B. pumilus (B10) were performed. Aroma volatiles were analysed using Likens-Nikerson method coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrophotometry. Sensory analysis of Soumbala as well as rice dishes prepared with each type of Soumbala were carried out by 10 panellists. In total 116 compounds were identified. They included pyrazines, aldehydes, ketones, esters, alcohols, acids, alkanes, alkenes, amines, pyridines, benzenes, phenols, sulphurs, furans and other compounds. Using principal component analysis for comparison, the aroma profiles of the Soumbala samples could be separated into three groups. The sensory evaluation showed variable acceptability. However, it was noticed that Soumbala samples produced with starter cultures were scored higher than traditionally prepared Soumbala.
Conclusions: Aroma volatiles and organoleptic properties of Soumbala vary according to the Bacillus isolates involved in the fermentation.
Significance And Impact Of The Study: This study contributes to the selection of Bacillus starter cultures for controlled production of Soumbala.

Background: Fruits are sources of bioactive compounds such as phenolics that bring health benefits to consumers. The addition of fruit products and microorganisms with probiotic potential in fermented goat milk can facilitate the acquisition of these benefits through diet. In this sense, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of incorporating a mixture of ingredients from jaboticaba (), jambolana (), and mandacaru () fruits on fermentation parameters (pH, titratable acidity, viability of the native culture CNPC003 and the starter culture), associated with pigmentation (phenolic compound content and color) through experimental mixture design.

pH remains the most important chemical parameter and must be monitored for positive outcomes in areas as different as cheese making and fertilisation (IVF). Where blood gas analysers enable patient monitoring, starter cultures in cheese manufacturing are still monitored using conventional pH electrodes. Here, we present a homogeneous multiwell plate sensor for monitoring pH, with the same sensitivity as a pH electrode.

Fermentation is crucial for inducing desirable flavor and aroma profiles in cocoa products. This research focused on identifying microbial strains isolated from spontaneous cocoa fermentation in Hainan through 16S and Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequencing. Pectinase activity was screened, and metabolic dynamics of sugars and organic acids were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography.

Lacto-fermented fruits and vegetables (FVs) such as kimchi, sauerkraut, and fermented olives and nonalcoholic juices have a long history as dietary staples. Herein, the production steps and microbial ecology of lacto-fermented FVs are discussed alongside findings from human and laboratory studies investigating the health benefits of these foods. Lacto-fermented FVs are enriched in bioactive compounds, including lactic and acetic acids, phenolic compounds, amino acid derivatives such as indole-3-lactic acid, phenyl-lactic acid, γ-aminobutyric acid, and bacteriocins, and beneficial live microbes.

Unlabelled: The choice of media and feeds significantly influences the performance of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) mammalian cell cultures in producing desired biologics like monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Sub-optimal nutrient feed/media composition can severely impact cell proliferation and the quality of the final mAb product. For instance, proper protein glycosylation, crucial for mAb stability, safety, and efficacy, heavily relies on cell culture conditions.
