Five bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB):Enterococcus faecium ET05, Lactobacillus curvatus ET06, L. curvatus ET30, L. deldrueckii T32 and Pediococcus acidilactici ET34, selected by their capacity for growth and producing inhibition in vitro at high salt-on-water content, low emperature and anaerobic atmosphere, conditions simulating cold-smoked fish, were inoculated onto salmon fil...

We studied the production of biogenic amines by 200 strains of lactic acid bacteria and staphylococci isolated during chilled storage from samples of Spanish dry-cured "chorizo" sausage treated with high-pressure. The presence of biogenic amines in a decarboxylase synthetic broth was confirmed by ion-exchange chromatography. β-phenylethylamine was the biogenic amine more frequently produced (22...

The role of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in honey as antifungal activity has received little attention and their mechanism of inhibitory of fungi is not fully understood. In this study, LAB were isolated from honey samples from Malaysia, Libya, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. Twenty-five isolates were confirmed LAB by catalase test and Gram staining, and were screened for antifungal activity. Four LAB s...

Ting is a spontaneously fermented sorghum food that is popular for its sour taste and unique flavour. Insight of the microbial diversity and population dynamics during sorghum fermentations is an essential component of the development of starter cultures for commercial production of ting. In this study, bacterial populations associated with spontaneous sorghum fermentations were examined using ...

the lactic acid bacteria in 9 samples of the fermented camel milk, chal, taken from rural area and retail markets were identified on the basis of their physiological and morphological properties. from the samples, 93 lab species including, 64 bacillus (68.8%), 8 cocci 8.6%), 11 coccobacillus (11.83%), 2 streptococcus (2.15%) and 8 tetrade (8.6%) were identified. among the lactobacillus species,...
