The effect of cold plasma processing time and gas flow on bioactive compounds such as vitamin C, carotenoids and phenolic compounds, DPPH, angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, fatty acids profile, and volatile compounds of guava-flavored whey beverage was investigated. For comparative

During fermentation of sugars, a number of bacterial species are able to switch from mixed acid production to acetoin and 2,3-butanediol production in order to avoid lethal acidification of their environment, although the regulation of this switch is only poorly
International journal of food microbiology, 7(3), 185-191 (1988-12-01)
Seventy-three staphylococcal strains isolated from pyrodermatitis in dogs were classified as Staphylococcus intermedius (52 strains) or Staphylococcus aureus (21 strains) on the basis of acetoin formation, anaerobic mannitol fermentation, aerobic maltose fermentation, pigmentation, coagulation of human plasma, and reaction on
Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 94(3), 651-658 (2012-03-01)
Production of 2,3-butanediol by Bacillus subtilis takes place in late-log or stationary phase, depending on the expression of bdhA gene encoding acetoin reductase, which converts acetoin to 2,3-butanediol. The present work focuses on the development of a strain of B.

The organic acids lactate and diacetate are commonly used in combination in ready-to-eat foods because they show synergistic ability to inhibit the growth of Listeria monocytogenes. Full-genome microarrays were used to investigate the synergistic transcriptomic responses of two L. monocytogenes
