In this study, the effect of solid-state fermentation (SSF) with MI401 and PA-2 strains on functional properties of extruded (130 °C; 25 rpm) corn-milling by-products (CMB) and their albumin, globulin, and prolamin fractions was evaluated in order to produce stabilized and functionalized food/feed stock. Extrusion resulted in a considerable reduction of microbial contamination of CMB by five log cycles, increased damaged starch, water-absorption capacity, and lowered protein and fat contents by 12.4% and 37%, respectively. The application of SSF for the extruded CMB have been shown to improve the water absorption, foaming, and emulsifying capacity of albumins and globulins and also increased the digestibility and free radical scavenging activity of prolamins. The essential amino acid content (EAA) in CMB and antioxidant activity of prolamins was lowered after extrusion but significantly increased after SSF. The combination of the abovementioned treatments can be confirmed as a prospective functionalization of CMB, capable of potentially enhancing its safety and improving nutritional, biochemical, and technological properties of proteins.

Recovery of Phenolic Compounds with Antioxidant Capacity Through Solid-State Fermentation of Pistachio Green Hull.

Microorganisms

December 2024

Biotechnology and Bioengineering Laboratory, Centro de Investigación en Alimentación y Desarrollo, Delicias 33089, Chihuahua, Mexico.

Pistachio green hull (PGH) represents the non-edible fraction obtained after the seed is harvested and is an important source of phenolic compounds. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) is a viable biotechnological and economical technique for extracting phenolic compounds. This study aimed to evaluate the SSF with GH1 to recover total phenolic compounds (TPC) with antioxidant capacity (AC) from PGH.

Pretreatment of Palm Kernel Cake by Enzyme-Bacteria and Its Effects on Growth Performance in Broilers.

Animals (Basel)

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Animal Nutrition and Feeding, College of Animal Science and Technology, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China.

This study aimed to improve palm kernel cake by reducing anti-nutritional factors with enzymes and enhancing its nutritional value through microbial fermentation. It also examined the effects of these treatments on palm kernel cake in broiler chicken diets. Palm kernel cake was hydrolyzed using xylanase and mannanase under various conditions.

L-asparaginase (asparagine amidohydrolase) contributes to 40% of the total enzyme demands worldwide and is one-third of the global requirement as an anti-cancerous drug in treating acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), a type of leukemia. This protein breaks down L-asparagine into aspartic acid and ammonia those involved in ALL, rely on for growth and survival. Both non-recombinant and recombinant L-asparaginase can be produced by bacteria when a suitable substrate and method (solid-state fermentation (SSF) or submerged fermentation (SmF) which are techniques to grow microorganisms under controlled conditions), is provided.

Sequential bioaugmentation of the dominant microorganisms to improve the fermentation and flavor of cereal vinegar.

Food Chem X

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Industrial Fermentation Microbiology, Ministry of Education. Tianjin Engineering Research Center of Microbial Metabolism and Fermentation Process Control. School of Biological Engineering, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, Tianjin 300457, China.

Traditional cereal vinegars are fermented by microorganisms that are spontaneously enriched, leading to uncertainty in regulating the fermentation process and flavor. The objective of this study was to elucidate the impact of the predominant microorganisms, provenly and , on the solid-state fermentation (SSF) and flavor profile of cereal vinegar by several bioaugmentation strategies. The results indicated that the sequential bioaugmentation of predominant microorganisms improved the utilization of raw material and most key flavor compounds.
