Mapping the proteome of microrganisms by 2D-electrophoresis is often a hard task, because many contaminants, e.g. polysaccharides of the cell wall and nucleic acid, can obstruct the pores of the IEF gel resulting in streaks and smears. A protocol based on the use of the cationic detergent cetyl-trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and its salt-dependent solubility was developed. The cellulose-producing strain Gluconoacetobacter hansenii AAB0248 was resolved on 7cm Minigels in over 500 protein spots (a hundred more than with protocols reported in literature). The method was further employed for mapping the proteome of some acid adapted, wine spoilage microrganisms e.g. acetic acid bacteria and a yeast.

This research is focused on the formulation and testing of green visual pH-sensitive indicators based on natural extracts from Curcuma Longa (CUR) and Lambrusco wine pomace (LAM), an Italian wine variety, incorporated into rice starch/pectin/alginate matrixes for non-destructively detecting shrimps freshness in real-time. The effect of the mixed indicators and their synergic combination on the properties and performances of indicators was investigated. Both the extracts and their combination showed pronounced pH responsiveness.

Melanins have immense application potential in the fields of agriculture, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. To determine the antimicrobial properties of melanin, conditionally pathogenic bacteria, belonging to different taxonomic groups were used. The results have shown that melanin solution exhibited bacteriostatic or bactericide activity depending on test culture and melanin concentration.

In the wine industry, Acetobacter sp. is a typical spoilage microorganism responsible for increased volatile acids and wine spoilage. This study investigated the impact of combined treatment using varying concentrations of resveratrol (RES) and pulsed electric field (PEF) on the bactericidal efficacy, intracellular enzyme activities, and cellular metabolism of Acetobacter sp.

This study aims to improve the solubility of kaempferol (KA) by preparing a kaempferol phospholipid complex (KA-PC), which can be applied to prevent soybean oil from spoilage. KA-PC was prepared by solvent evaporation and characterised by FTIR, DSC, and XRD. Furthermore, KA-PC was added to soybean oil and the peroxide value and acid value were determined.
