AI Article Synopsis

  • Three strains of Geobacillus stearothermophilus (A1, P3, and D1) were collected from a milk powder factory in New Zealand.
  • Their draft genome sequences were analyzed, which marks the first time genomic data for these strains has been described.
  • This research gives new information about the characteristics of G. stearothermophilus present in the milk powder production setting.

Article Abstract

Three strains of Geobacillus stearothermophilus (designated A1, P3, and D1) were isolated from a New Zealand milk powder manufacturing plant. Here, we describe their draft genome sequences. This information provided the first genomic insights into the nature of G. stearothermophilus strains present in the milk powder manufacturing environment.

The objective of this investigation was to examine the effects of distinct dosages of infant formula and diverse formula constituents on the growth and development of weaned rats. Fifty specific pathogen-free (SPF) male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats aged 3 weeks were divided into the basic diet group, 20% ordinary milk powder group, 20% special formula milk powder group, 30% ordinary milk powder group, and 30% special formula milk powder group randomly. After 28 days of feeding, compared with the basic diet group, the body mass and brain/body weight of rats in the 30% ordinary and special formula milk powder groups were decreased.

  • Hyperlipidemia is linked to poor diet and inactivity, but prebiotics and probiotics, like those found in mushrooms and kefir milk, could help address its effects.
  • A study tested dried powdered mushrooms (DPM) and kefir milk (KM) on hyperlipidemic rats, showing significant improvements in health markers such as body weight, blood glucose, and lipid profiles when DPM and KM were included in their diet.
  • The findings suggest that the combination of DPM and KM could serve as functional foods to reduce hyperlipidemia and enhance gut health, but further research on humans is necessary.

This study investigated the survival dynamics of BG24, a probiotic strain, within reconstituted skim milk (RSM) and yeast extract (YE) matrices during the spray-drying (SD) process, encompassing of inlet/outlet air temperatures. Notably, optimum SD parameters were found to be an inlet air temperature of 150°C and outlet air temperature of 83°C, that achieving high viability (92.23%), and reducing both moisture content (MC) (3.

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of supplementary feeding with Chinese herbal mixtures on perinatal sows, focusing on their reproductive performance, immunity and breast milk quality. Sixty healthy pregnant sows (Large white, 4 parities) were randomly allocated into five treatment groups ( = 12 per group): the control group received a basal diet, the TRT1 group received a basal diet supplemented with 2 kg/t Bazhen powder (BZP), while the TRT2, TRT3, and TRT4 groups received a basal diet supplemented with 1 kg/t, 2 kg/t, and 3 kg/t Qi-Zhu-Gui-Shao soothing liver and replenishing blood powder (QZGSP), respectively. The trial lasted for a duration of 5 weeks, commencing from day 100 of gestation and concluding on day 21 postpartum.
