Factors Which Increase Acid Production in Milk by Lactobacilli

Factors which increase acid production in milk by lactobacilli.

The stimulation by yeast extract of acid production in milk by various lactobacilli was studied. It was found that supplementing milk with purine and pyrimidine bases and amino acids allowed nearly maximal acid production by Lactobacillus bulgaricus strain 7994, L. acidophilus 4796, 4356, and 4357, and L. leichmannii 326 and 327. Further supplementation with deoxyribotides allowed maximal acid ...

Fermentative Lactic Acid Production by Lactobacilli: Moser and Gompertz Kinetic Models

Lactic acid production in a batch submerged fermentation process by five Lactobacilli: bulgaricus, casei, lactis, delbrueckii and fermentum in lactose fortified whey culture were investigated. Kinetic behavior of Lactobacilli growth rate and lactose utilization was studied based on the Moser and Gompertz kinetic models. Trendline tool in Excel software was applied for fitness assessment of the ...

Acid production by oral strains of Candida albicans and lactobacilli.

Both Candida albicans and lactobacilli are common colonizers of carious lesions in children and adolescents. The purpose of this study is to compare the velocity of acid production between C. albicans and several Lactobacillus species at different pH levels and concentrations of glucose. Washed, pure resting-cell suspensions were obtained by culturing a total of 28 oral isolates comprising the ...

Does milk increase mucus production?

Excessive milk consumption has a long association with increased respiratory tract mucus production and asthma. Such an association cannot be explained using a conventional allergic paradigm and there is limited medical evidence showing causality. In the human colon, beta-casomorphin-7 (beta-CM-7), an exorphin derived from the breakdown of A1 milk, stimulates mucus production from gut MUC5AC gl...
