The effects of post-fermentation and post-bottling heat treatment on Cabernet Sauvignon (V. vinifera L.) glycosides and quantification of glycosidase activities in selected strains of Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Oenococcus oeniMansfield, Anna Katharine 10 August 2001 (has links)
Thermal processing has been used as a means of modifying the sensory aspects of wine. Cabernet Sauvignon wines were heated prior to dejuicing (3C per day from 25C to 42C) or after bottling (42C for 21 days) to determine the effects on total glycosides and glycosidic fractions. Total and phenol-free glycosidic concentrations in the wine and skins were quantified by analysis of glycosyl-glucose. Pre-dejuicing thermal vinification resulted in higher total glycosides (12%), phenol-free glycosides (18%), total hydroxycinnamates (16%), large polymeric pigments (LPP) (208%) small polymeric pigments (SPP) (41%), and lower monomeric pigments (42%) in wines. Skins had lower total glycosides (-16%), and no significant difference in phenol-free glycosides. Post-bottling heat treatment resulted in lower total (-15%) and phenol-free (-16%) glycosides, increased hue (25%), a 62% increase in LPP and a 29% decrease in monmeric pigments.
A second study investigated the potential of enological spoilage microorganisms to affect wine aroma, flavor, and color. The activities of b-glucosidase were determined in model systems for fourteen strains of Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast and nine strains of lactic acid bacteria (Oenococcus oeni). All Brettanomyces strains and seven Oenococcus strains exhibited enzymatic activity. B. bruxellensis b-glucosidase activity was primarily intracellular; O. oeni showed some extracellular activity. Yeasts and bacteria showing activity greater than 1000 nmole mL-1 g -1 for Brettanomyces, or 100 nmole mL-1 g -1 for Oenococcus, were evaluated for their effect on Viognier grape glycosides. Neither was active on native grape glycosides. / Master of Science

Etude de la flore lactique du Nem chua, produit carné fermenté cru traditionnel du Sud Vietnam et maîtrise du processus de fermentation par ajout de souches lactiques sélectionnées spécifiques du produitHo, Thi Nguyet Thu 18 December 2008 (has links)
Le Nem chua est un produit vietnamien fermenté à base de viande porcine. Notre étude a pour but de formuler des starters lactiques afin de standardiser le processus de fabrication du Nem chua et améliorer la qualité des produits finis. Le pH de la pâte de viande diminue progressivement tandis que la population lactique se développe au cours des 5 jours de fermentation. Parmi les 131 souches identifiées, les Lactobacillus brevis et Lb. plantarum étaient les plus fréquents. Les autres bactéries lactiques telles que Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Pediococcus pentosaceus, Lactococcus lactis sont présentes mais en plus faible pourcentage. L’utilisation de la combinaison des Lb. brevis et Pe. pentosaceus (6.106 UFC.g-1 pâte de viande, proportion de 1:1) donne des produits préférés par le jury de dégustateurs vietnamiens. Ces résultats permettent d’ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives de production et d’application au niveau industriel des starters lactiques choisis afin d’avoir les produits à la qualité bien maîtrisée et en sécurité alimentaire dans la fabrication des Nem chua du Vietnam, qui pouvant s’appliquer à d’autres fermentations carnées similaires. / Nem chua is a very popular fermented meat product in Vietnam. Our research aimed at the formulation of autochthonous starter cultures in order to standardise the production process of Nem chua and to improve the quality of final product. The paste meat pH progressively decreased while LAB increased during the fermentation. Among 131 isolates identified, the most frequent LAB revealed were Lactobacillus brevis and Lb. plantarum. The other LABs such as Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Pediococcus pentosaceus, Lactococcus lactis, … existed in lowest percentage. The results of our sensorial experiments demonstrated significant effects of Lb. brevis and Pe. pentosaceus strains, which were previously isolated from Nem chua, on the sensory quality of this traditional fermented meat product. The use of both Lb. brevis and Pe. pentosaceus strains (6.106CFU.g-1 meat paste, strain ratio of 1:1) as starters for Nem chua offered the best sensorial quality. These results suggest further studies on the practical ability of using and producing these LABs in combination as commercial starters in order to produce products of well-controlled quality and safety for Nem chua in Vietnam and probably of other similar fermented meat products.

Evaluation des propriétés immunomodulatrices de la bactérie lactique Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB8826 dans le cadre de l'allergie aux acariens / Evaluation of the immunomodulatory properties of the lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB8826 in the context of house dust mite allergyRigaux, Peter 05 December 2008 (has links)
Les effets anti-allergiques des bactéries lactiques sont suggérés par plusieurs études épidémiologiques, des essais cliniques et des modèles expérimentaux d’allergie. Cependant, les propriétés immunomodulatrices des bactéries lactiques sont sous-exploitées par les stratégies vaccinales développées pour combattre l’allergie et les mécanismes empruntés par ces bactéries pour moduler l’allergie restent peu caractérisés.<p>Dès lors, nous avons caractérisé les propriétés immunomodulatrices qu’exerce Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB8826, une bactérie lactique modèle, sur la cellule dendritique étant donné le rôle déterminant de cette cellule sur la réponse allergique. Nous montrons que L. plantarum induit une forte sécrétion d’IL-12 p40, d’IL-12 p70, de TNF-a mais une faible production d’IL-10. Cette faculté à induire la sécrétion de cytokines polarisantes dépend de TLR2, de TLR9, de MyD88, de NF-kB, des MAPKs (en particulier JNK, p38 et ERK 1/2), de la composition de l’acide lipotéichoïque de L. plantarum et de CD14. Nous montrons aussi que l’ADN génomique de L. plantarum est un agoniste de TLR9 et que CD14 et CD36 facilitent la liaison de la cellule dendritique avec L. plantarum.<p>Ensuite, nous avons évalué le potentiel vaccinal d’une coadministration L. plantarum + Der p 1 dans un modèle murin d’allergie à Der p 1. Cette formulation vaccinale prévient la production d’IgE Der p 1-spécifique et atténue l’éosinophilie pulmonaire tout en stimulant une forte production d’anticorps IgG2a Der p 1-spécifiques et d’IFN-g par les cellules spléniques. Ces effets bénéfiques nous ont conduit à élaborer une bactérie lactique recombinante dérivée de L. plantarum produisant Der p 1 pour la vaccination contre l’allergie aux acariens. La forme antigénique que nous avons réussi à faire produire par L. plantarum correspond à une protéine de fusion entre la Maltose Binding Protein de E. coli et ProDer p 1 (le zymogène de Der p 1), la présence de ce partenaire de fusion étant indispensable à la production de ProDer p 1. En prophylaxie, la vaccination par cette bactérie recombinante prévient la production d’anticorps IgE-Der p 1-spécifiques et stimule la production d’anticorps IgG2a spécifiques, reproduisant les effets de la coadministration L. plantarum + Der p 1. Elle réduit de manière drastique la production d’IL-5 des cellules spléniques et des cellules ganglionnaires médiastinales et prévient l’éosinophilie pulmonaire mais n’a pas d’effet sur l’hyperréactivité bronchique. Der p 1 étant un des allergènes d’acarien les plus immunodominants, cet ensemble de données montre donc que cette bactérie recombinante constitue un vaccin prophylactique prometteur pour la prévention de l’allergie aux acariens. Des résultats préliminaires obtenus à partir de cellules dendritiques humaines et lymphocytes T autologues montrent la forte capacité de cette bactérie recombinante à induire le développement d’une réponse Th1 fortement polarisée (production d’IFN-g en l’absence de production d’IL-4 et d’IL-5), ce qui suggère que l’utilisation de cette bactérie recombinante pourrait être envisagée pour le traitement de l’allergie chez l’homme. <p> / Doctorat en Sciences agronomiques et ingénierie biologique / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Development of a Nigerian fermented maize food 'Akamu' as a functional foodObinna-Echem, Patience Chisa January 2014 (has links)
Akamu is a lactic acid bacteria fermented cereal-based food that complements infant diets in most African countries. Uncontrolled fermentation increases the variability in quality and safety of akamu. This study was aimed at the controlled fermentation of akamu with selected lactic acid bacteria (LAB), investigation of the probiotic potential of the LAB and the effect of variation in production method on the product quality and sensory properties. PCR-DGGE analysis of traditional akamu samples revealed LAB community dominated by Lactobacillus fermentum, L. plantarum, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and L. helveticus. Isolated yeasts were Candida tropicalis, C. albicans, Clavispora lusitaniae and Saccharomyces paradoxus. The isolated Lactobacillus plantarum strains (NGL5 and NGL7) fermented irradiated ground maize slurries and produced significant levels of lactic acid (>73 mmol L-1) and low pH ≤3.63 displaying inhibitory activity against Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis NCTC 5188, Escherichia coli 1077 (NCTC 11560), Bacillus cereus NCIMB 11925, Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 3750 and Listeria monocytogenes NCTC 7973 in MRS agar and E. coli 1077 in maize slurry fermentation. Viability of both strains of L. plantarum at pH 2 after 3 h was reduced from ≥8.26±0.05 to ≤4.94±0.49 Log10 CFU mL-1 while incubation in 0.3% bile allowed growth to 5.73±0.13 and 7.93±0.12 Log10 CFU mL-1 after 6 h for NGL5 and NGL7 respectively. Auto-aggregation of the L. plantarum strains at 37oC (≥25 after 5 h) correlated with adhesion to hydrocarbons (<15, 26, 33 and 64% for Hexane, Hexadecane, Ethyl acetate and Chloroform respectively). The strains failed to exhibit gelatinase or haemolytic activity but adhered to porcine mucin (OD403 nm ≥0.63 with viability ≥6.52 Log10 CFU mL-1) and Caco-2 cells (≥5.13 Log10 CFU mL-1). The ash, mineral (Ca, K, Mg, Na, S and Zn), IDF, SDFP and TDF content of the L. plantarum fermented ground maize slurries were significantly (p≤0.05) higher than that of the traditional akamu but the peak and final viscosities (139.5 and 68.5 cP respectively) were significantly (p≤0.05) the least. The aroma, appearance, colour, flavour and texture of the resultant porridges were liked moderately by 75% of the assessors. This study demonstrated that fermentation with the L. plantarum strains would contribute towards product safety and the L. plantarum strains possessed some probiotic potential that could be beneficial to the consumers particularly in those developing countries were the main staple foods are fermented cereals.

Screening, identification and characterisation of bacteriocins produced by the wine isolated LABNdlovu, Joseph Buyani 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2013. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a vital role in reducing wine acidity and also contributing to its
aroma and flavour. However, they can also be responsible for many wine spoilage problems that
compromise the quality and value of wine. While Oenococcus oeni contributes positive characteristics to
the sensory properties of wine, certain species of the genera, Lactobacillus and Pediococcus can affect the
wholesomeness of wine by producing undesirable compounds, such as biogenic amines and ethyl
carbamate.
Chemical preservatives like sulphur dioxide (SO2) are used to prevent the growth of spoilage
micro-organisms during the winemaking process. SO2 also acts as a reducing agent and maintains the
benefits of antioxidant properties of the polyphenols of wine. However, there is a worldwide demand to
reduce SO2 levels due to the increasing health related risks and other factors.
All these considerations have increased the interest in research to look for new preservation
strategies, and LAB-produced bacteriocins seem to be a potential alternative that has been explored in the
last decade. Various types of bacteriocins have been identified and characterized. However, there are few
reports on bacteriocins produced by LAB of oenological origin or on bacteriocins present in the finished
wine.
The present study screened 155 LAB isolates from the IWBT culture collection for bacteriocin
production. The isolates originated from South African red wines undergoing spontenous malolactic
fermentation (MLF). Eight strains (5%) were identified to be producers, as evidenced by strong inhibition
zones formed against sensitive organisms on agar plates. The producers demonstrated a broad spectrum of
antimicrobial activity by inhibiting Lactobacillus spp., Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Listeria
monocytogenes and Pediococcus pentosaceus strains. Some of these bacterial genera are important in
winemaking since they are potential wine spoilage bacteria. Hence these strains and/or the bacteriocins
they produce could possibly find application in the food fermentation industry. The physiological results, biochemical tests and sugar fermentation profiles all gave the same
results for the seven isolates, which were indicative of enterococci. The identification through 16S rRNA
gene sequencing revealed that the seven tested isolates were all Enterococccus faecium. RAPD-PCR
fingerprinting gave the same profile for the seven strains confirming that they were all identical on
genetic level. Determining the molecular weight using SDS-PAGE showed the peptides to be below
4.6 kDa in size. PCR amplification of the enterocin P gene, sequencing and BLAST search results
confirmed that all eight strains contained the enterocin P gene from Ent. faecium.
The enterocin tested in this study was heat stable at 100°C (30 min), but lost 50% of its activity at
121°C (15 min). Factors such as bacteriocin production and heat resistance are among many that enable
enterococci to be dominant in fermented products such as dairy foods or meat. Therefore, enterococci
producing bacteriocins have potential applications in various foods and fermented products. The pH tests
showed enterocin to be active over a broad pH range (2-10). Enterocin activity over a wide pH range make them potentially more suitable as natural preservatives of foods and fermented products where
products are acidified or pH decreases due to natural LAB present. They also have potential applications
in oenological process where pH levels are as low as 3 and 4.
Proteolytic enzyme treatments with lysozyme, lipase, lyticase and catalase could not inhibit
enterocin activity. This indicated that their antimicrobial activity was independent of lipid or carbohydrate
moieties or hydrogen peroxide. α-Chymotrypsin and proteinase K inactivated enterocin, which indicated
that the compound was proteinaceous in nature.
Bacteriocin production tested in two of the isolates, #16.3 and 128.1, coincided with the
exponential growth phase which occurred after 6 hours of incubation at 30°C, which was an indication of
primary metabolite kinetics. The highest production of 400 AU/ml was observed after eight hours and
was maintained for several hours (46 hours) in the stationery phase. The bactericidal effect of the cell free
supernatants from #16.3 and 128.1 against the sensitive culture of Lactobacillus pentosus DSM 20314
was clearly demonstrated by complete inhibition of growth for most of the experimental period, while the
control increased exponentially throughout the experiment.
In conclusion, this study has confirmed the isolation and identification of Ent. faecium strains
from wine, a genus that is rarely found in the wine environment. Although one can speculate on the origin
of this bacterium in the wine e.g. human handling and contaminated water, these bacterial isolates
produced enterocin P which have antimicrobial action against wine-related LAB genera and therefore
have a potential role in wine spoilage control. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Melksuurbakterieë (MSB) speel ‘n belangrike rol in die redusering van die suurgehalte van wyn
en dra ook by tot die aroma en smaak daarvan. Hulle kan egter ook verantwoordelik wees vir vele
wynbederfprobleme wat die gehalte en waarde van wyn negatief beïnvloed. Hoewel Oenococcus oeni
positiewe karaktertrekke aan die sensoriese eienskappe van wyn verleen, kan sekere spesies van die
genus, Lactobacillus en Pediococcus, die heilsaamheid van wyn beïnvloed deur ongewenste verbindings,
soos biogeniese amienes en etielkarbamaat, te produseer.
Chemiese preserveermiddels, soos swaweldioksied (SO₂), word gebruik om die groei van
bederfmikro-organismes tydens die wynbereidingsproses te voorkom. SO₂ fungeer ook as ‘n
reduseermiddel en onderhou die voordele van die antioksidant eienskappe van die poli-fenole van wyn.
Daar is egter ‘n wêreldwye vraag na die redusering van SO₂-vlakke as gevolg van die toename in
gesondheidsverwante risiko’s en ander faktore.
Al hierdie oorwegings het belangstelling in die navorsing van nuwe preserveringstrategieë laat
toeneem en MSB-geproduseerde bakteriosiene lyk na ‘n potensiële alternatief wat in die laaste dekade
ondersoek word. Verskeie tipes bakteriosiene is geïdentifiseer en getipeer. Daar is egter nog weinig
gerapporteer oor bakteriosiene wat deur MSB van wynkundige oorsprong geproduseer is of oor
bakteriosiene wat in afgeronde wyn teenwoordig is.
Die huidige studie het 155 MSB isolate van die Instituut vir Wynbiotegnologie se
kultuurversameling vir bakteriosien-produsering gegradeer. Agt stamme (5%) is as produseerders
geïdentifiseer, soos gestaaf is deur sterk inhibisiesones wat teen sensitiewe organismes op agarplate
gevorm het. Die produseerders het ‘n breë spektrum van antimikrobiese aktiwiteit by inhiberende
Lactobacillus spp., Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Listeria monocytogenes en Pediococcus pentosaceus
stamme gedemonstreer. Sommige van hierdie bakteriese genera is belangrik in wynbereiding, omdat dit
potensiële wynbederfbakterieë is. Hierdie isolate en/of die bakteriosiene wat dit produseer, kan dus moontlik toepassing in die voedselfermentasiebedryf vind.
Die fisiologiese resultate, biochemiese toetse en suikerfermentasieprofiele het almal dieselfde
resultate vir die sewe isolate, wat indikatief van enterococci was, gelewer. Die identifisering deur 16S
rRNA-basispaaropeenvolging het onthul dat die sewe getoetste isolate almal Enterococccus faecium was.
RAPD-PKR-vingerafdrukke het dieselfde profiel vir die sewe rasse gelewer, wat bevestig dat die
rasse almal identies op genetiese vlak was. Deur die molekulêre gewig vas te stel deur middel van SDSPAGE,
het dit getoon dat die peptiede kleiner as 4.6 kDa in grootte is. PKR-amplifikasie van die
enterosien-P geen, die bepaling van basispaaropeenvolging en BLAST-soekresultate het bevestig dat al
agt rasse die enterosien-Pgeen van Ent. faecium bevat.
Die enterosien wat in hierdie studie getoets is, was hitte-stabiel teen 100°C (30 min), maar het
50% van sy aktiwiteit teen 121°C (15 min) verloor. Faktore soos bakteriosienproduksie en
hittebestandheid, is van die vele faktore wat enterococci in staat stel om dominant in gefermenteerde produkte, soos suiwelprodukte of vleis te wees. Enterococci wat bakteriosiene produseer het dus
potensiële toepassings in verskeie kossoorte en gefermenteerde produkte. Die pH-toetse het getoon dat
enterosien-P oor ‘n breë pH spektrum (2-10) aktief was. Enterosienaktiwiteit oor ‘n wye pH spektrum
maak dit potensieel meer geskik as natuurlike preserveermiddels vir kossoorte en gefermenteerde
produkte waar produkte versuur word of die pH afneem as gevolg van natuurlike MSB wat teenwoordig
is. Dit het ook potensiële toepassings in enologiese prosessering waar pH-vlakke so laag as 3 en 4 is.
Proteolitiese ensiembehandelings met lisosiem, lipase, litikase en katalase kon nie
enterosienaktiwiteit inhibeer nie. Daar is getoon dat hul antimikrobiese aktiwiteit onafhanklik was van
lipiede, koolhidraatdele óf waterstofperoksied. α-Chymotripsien en proteïenase-K het enterosien onaktief
gemaak, wat getoon het dat die samestelling proteïenagtig van nature is.
Bakteriosienproduksie wat in twee van die stamme #16.3 en 128.1 getoets is, het ooreengestem
met die eksponensiële groeifase wat na 6 ure van inkubasie teen 30°C plaasgevind het, en wat ‘n
aanduiding is van primêre metabolitiese kinetika. Die hoogste produksie van 400 AU/ml is na agt ure
waargeneem en is vir etlike ure (46 uur) in die stasionêre fase gehandhaaf. Die bakterie-dodende effek
van die selvrye supernatant van #16.3 en 128.1 teenoor die sensitiewe kultuur van Lactobacillus pentosus
DSM 20314 is duidelik gedemonstreer deur totale inhibisie van groei vir die grootste deel van die
eksperimentele periode, terwyl die kontrole eksponensieel deur die hele eksperiment toegeneem het.
Hierdie studie het dus die isolering en identifisering van Ent. faecium-stamme, ‘n genus wat baie
selde gevind word in ‘n wynomgewing, vanuit wyn bevestig. Alhoewel daar gespekuleer kan word oor
die oorsprong van hierdie bakterie in wyn bv. menslike hantering en besmette water, het hierdie rasse wel
enterosien geproduseer en daarom die potensiaal om ‘n rol te speel in beheer teen verskeie bederf-MSB-genera. / TIA, NRF and THRIP

Characterization of the adhesion genes of probiotic lactic acid bacteriaRamiah, Kamini 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD (Microbiology))--Stellenbosch University, 2008. / One of the key selection criteria for potential probiotics is the ability to adhere and
colonise the host gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Probiotics compete for receptor sites at
the host intestinal surface, preventing the colonisation of pathogens, thereby
protecting the host from infection. In addition, several important intestinal functions
are mediated by the binding of probiotics to host tissue. However, the molecular
mechanisms and genotypic characterization of adhesive elements have not received as
much attention as other aspects of probiotic research. The present study aims to
contribute to this area of research.
The first part of the study focused on monitoring the expression of mucus
adhesion genes mub, mapA, adhesion-like factor EF-Tu and bacteriocin gene plaA of
Lactobacillus plantarum 423, as well as mub, surface layer protein (slp) and EF-Tu of
Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356 when grown in the presence of mucin, bile,
pancreatin and at low pH. Real time PCR was used. mub, mapA and EF-Tu of strain
423 were up-regulated in the presence of mucus and expression increased under
increasing concentrations of mucus. Expression of mapA was up-regulated under
normal gut conditions (0.3%, w/v, bile; 0.3%, w/v, pancreatin; pH 6.5) and at higher
levels of bile (1.0%, w/v) and pancreatin (1.0%, w/v). Expression of mub was downregulated
in the presence of bile and pancreatin at pH 6.5, whilst the expression of EFTu
and plaA remained unchanged. At pH 4.0, the expression of mub and mapA
remained unchanged, whilst EF-Tu and plaA were up-regulated. Expression of mapA
was down-regulated in the presence of 0.1% (w/v) cysteine, suggesting that the gene
is regulated by a mechanism of transcription attenuation that involves cysteine. In the
case of L. acidophilus ATCC 4356, none of the genes were up-regulated under
increasing concentrations of mucin, whilst only slp and EF-Tu were up-regulated
under normal and stressful gut conditions in vitro.
In the second part of the study, male Wistar rats were used to evaluate which
section of the gastrointestinal tract are colonised by L. plantarum 423 and
Enterococcus mundtii ST4SA and determine the effect of adhesion. Fluorescent in situ
hybridization (FISH) incorporating strain specific oilgonucleotide probes indicated
strong fluorescent signals for L. plantarum 423 along the intestinal lining of the ileum
and the cecum. L. plantarum 423 did not colonise the colon as indicated by real timePCR. Fluorescent signals were recorded for E. mundtii ST4SA across the epithelial barrier of cecum and colonic tissue, suggesting that translocation took place. Real time
PCR revealed highest cell numbers of strain ST4SA in the cecum and the colon.
Haemotoxylin eosin staining of rat tissue revealed no change in morphology or any
toxic effects induced upon adhesion of the strains. 16S rDNA PCR and denaturing
gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) revealed a decrease in enterobacterial species
whilst the lactic acid bacterial content remained unchanged. Strains 423 and ST4SA
agglutinated yeast cells in vitro, indicating the possible presence of mannose
receptors. It is well known that these receptors play a crucial role in the elimination of
type 1 fimbriated strains of E. coli. It is thus safe to speculate that mannose receptors
may have played a role in diminishing the enterobacterial content in the gut.
The third part of the study encompassed characterization of cell surface proteins of
L. plantarum 423 and their role in adhesion to Caco-2 cell lines. The strain lacks the
typical surface layer protein whilst a multifunctional “intracellular” protein,
elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) and glycolytic enzymes glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate
dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) were detected.
Removal of surface proteins reduced adherence of strain 423 to Caco-2 cell lines by
40%, suggesting that these proteins play a role in adhesion. The ability of strain 423 to
competitively adhere, exclude and displace Clostridium sporogenes LMG 13570 and
Enterococcus faecalis LMG 13566 from Caco-2 cell lines, was studied. Adhesion of
C. sporogenes LMG 13570 and E. faecalis LMG 13566 was inhibited by 70% and
90%, respectively. Strain 423 excluded C. sporogenes LMG 13570 from Caco-2 cells
by 73% and displaced the pathogen by 80%. E. faecalis LMG 13566 was excluded by
60% and displaced from Caco-2 cells by 90%. Despite removal of the surface
proteins, L. plantarum 423 was still capable of competitively adhering to Caco-2 cells
and reduced adherence of C. sporogenes LMG 13570 by 50% and E. faecalis LMG
13566 by 70%.

Carnobacterium maltaromaticum : caractéristiques physiologiques et potentialités en technologie fromagère / Carnobacterium maltaromaticum : physiological properties and potentialities in the cheese-making manufacturing processEdima, Hélène Carole 20 September 2007 (has links)
La souche Carnobacterium maltaromaticum LMA 28, isolée d’un fromage à pâte molle, possède des propriétés physiologiques non conventionnelles pour une bactérie lactique. Sa croissance en TSB-YE et en lait traduisent son exigence nutritionnelle en facteurs de croissance facilement assimilables et sa faible vitesse de production d’acide lactique à partir de glucose, lactose, fructose et saccharose. Le galactose n’est pas métabolisé et lors de l’hydrolyse du lactose n’est pas excrété dans le milieu de culture. Les caillés lactiques sont obtenus après des durées d’incubation non compatibles avec les cadences industrielles. De plus, ils présentent une texture très friable. La numération et l’identification de cette souche, en vue de suivre son comportement dans une matrice fromagère, ont été optimisées par la mise au point du milieu de culture sélectif CM, à l’aide de plan d’expériences, et par la technique de PCR. Le comportement de C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 a été comparé à ceux de deux souches lactiques d’intérêt technologique Lc. lactis DSM 20481 et S. thermophilus INRA 302, dans une large gamme de températures (3 à 37 °C) et de pH (5,2- 8,0). Des essais en co-culture, associant cette souche avec Lc. lactis DSM 20481 ou avec S. thermophilus INRA 302, ont montré que la production d’acide lactique était due à la croissance de la souche lactique traditionnelle. Cependant C. maltaromaticum LMA 28, souche lente, n’est pas inhibée par cette acidification. L’aptitude fromagère de C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 a été testée lors de deux fabrications de fromages à pâte molle. Inoculée à différents niveaux de population, elle a été mise en évidence à tous les stades de la fabrication. Présente à une concentration très faible dans le lait de fabrication, elle devient une flore lactique dominante après l’affinage et le stockage en réfrigération. Cette aptitude technologique est en relation avec son caractère psychrotrophe et sa faculté à se développer activement à des pH alcalins. Son « alimentarité », testée par la production d’amines biogènes, a montré des niveaux nuls ou très faibles en tyramine et en histamine, comme avec S. thermophilus INRA 302 et avec Lc. lactis DSM 20481. L’optimisation de sa production de flaveurs maltées a été abordée sur milieu TSB-YE et sur lait, supplémentés avec de la leucine, de l’isoleucine ou de la valine. La production de 3-méthylbutanal est la plus importante. Les analyses sensorielles des fromages contenant des niveaux de population importants (108-109 ufc.g-1) de C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 n’ont pas permis de mettre en évidence cet arôme. Présente dans de nombreux fromages français AOC ou non AOC, cette espèce opportuniste, de statut GRAS, pourrait être considérée comme un auxiliaire de fabrication intéressant, car elle permet un ralentissement du vieillissement des fromages, en évitant notamment l’apparition de flaveurs désagréables. Cette flore lactique psychrotrophe pourrait être retenue comme flore bactérienne d’affinage / The C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 bacteria strain, isolated from soft cheese, was observed to possess non conventional lactic bacteria physiological properties. Its growth in TSB YE medium and milk was found to be characterised by the requirements for easily assimilated growth nutrients and a low kinetic rate of lactic acid production from glucose, lactose, fructose and sucrose. In addition, it was found to not metabolise galactose or not excrete it during the hydrolysis of lactose. In the process of milk fermentation, it not only took an unusually long duration but produced products of fragile texture. In order to eventually determine the behaviour of this strain in the process of cheese-making, a selective culture medium CM was developed using an experimental design and PCR techniques for its isolation and identification. The behaviour of C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 was compared with that of two strains of lactic bacteria of technological interest namely Lc. lactis DSM 20481 and S. thermophilus INRA 302, within a wide temperature range (3 to 37°C) and of pH (5.2 – 8.0). Tests carried out in co-culture associating this strain with Lc. lactis DSM 20481 or with S. thermophilus INRA 302 showed that the lactic acid production was due mainly to the growth of the traditional lactic strain. In the process, the C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 slow strain was observed not to be inhibited by acidification. The cheese-making potential of C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 was evaluated in the process of two soft cheese manufactures. Inoculated at various levels of population, it was observed to be present at all manufacturing stages. Generally present at very weak concentrations in the starting milk, it becomes a dominant lactic flora following ripening and refrigeration storage. This technological aptitude is in relation with its psychrotrophic character and its ability to actively develop in alkaline medium. Its “alimentarity”, tested by its ability to produce biogenic amines, showed zero or very low levels in tyramine and histamine, as in the case of S. thermophilus INRA 302 and Lc. lactis DSM 20481. The optimization of its malted flavour production capacity was carried out on a TSB-YE medium and on milk supplemented with leucine, isoleucine or valine. In this process the production of 3-méthylbutanal was observed to be the most abundant product while cheese containing high levels (108-109 ufc.g-1) of C. maltaromaticum LMA 28 did not exhibit this flavour. This notwithstanding, the presence of this species of GRAS status in many French AOC and non AOC cheeses could be considered as an interesting auxiliary in cheese manufacturing process since it tends to slow down the aging process and thereby retard the development of unpleasant flavours. In this respect this strain of psychotrophic lactic bacteria could be retained as a flora for cheese ripening process

Probiotiques, prébiotiques, synbiotiques et prévention des maladies inflammatoires chroniques de l'intestin : proposition d'un crible de sélection rationnel in vitro / Probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics and inflammatory bowel diseases prevention : in vitro screen propositionGrimoud, Julien 07 December 2010 (has links)
De nombreuses pathologies découlent de déséquilibres du microbiote intestinal. Ainsi, des stratégies visent à les prévenir en restaurant cet écosystème par l'apport de probiotiques, de prébiotiques et de synbiotiques. Des résultats prometteurs nécessitant d'être validés rationnellement, nous nous sommes proposés d'établir un premier crible de sélection de bactéries lactiques et de glucooligosaccharides (GOS) pour des activités anti-inflammatoires et anti-prolifératives in vitro. Les probiotiques ont inhibé des pathogènes tout en se révélant résistants aux conditions du tube digestif, tandis que deux GOS ont conduit à leur croissance sélective. De plus, les probiotiques ont réduit la réponse inflammatoire de cellules intestinales et la prolifération de cellules cancéreuses en association avec un GOS. Nous avons donc retenu des produits potentiellement actifs contre les maladies inflammatoires chroniques de l'intestin et du cancer colorectal, par un crible devant être validé in vivo. / Some pathologies are induced by intestinal microbiota disorders. Thus, some strategies aim torestore this ecosystem through probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics. Promising results need tobe rationally validated, so we aimed to establish the screening first step of lactic acid bacteriaand glucooligosaccharides (GOS) against anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activity invitro. Probiotics inhibited pathogens and were resistant to digestive tract conditions whileGOS promoted specifically their growth. Moreover, probiotics reduced inflammatoryresponse of intestinal cells and proliferation of cancer cells when combined with GOS. Thus,we selected compounds potentially efficient against inflammatory bowel diseases andcolorectal cancer, through a screen that need to be validated in vivo

Etude des plasmides et génomes d’Oenococcus oeni pour l’identification des gènes d’intérêt technologique / Study of plasmids and genomes of Oenococcus oeni to identify genes of technological interestFavier, Marion 17 December 2012 (has links)
Oenococcus oeni joue un rôle essentiel dans l’élaboration du vin. Adaptée aux environnements acides et riches en alcool, elle est la bactérie lactique naturellement sélectionnée pour mener la fermentation malolactique (FML). Elle est ainsi la principale espèce recherchée et utilisée industriellement comme levain malolactique. Toutefois, il existe une grande diversité phénotypique au sein des souches d’O. oeni et notamment une variabilité des propriétés technologiques que sont la résistance à la lyophilisation, la résistance à l’inoculation dans le vin et la capacité à réaliser rapidement la FML. De nombreux gènes impliqués dans l’adaptation au vin ont déjà été identifiés mais, ne se sont pas toujours révélés efficaces pour la sélection de souches œnologiques. Dans ce contexte, cette étude a consisté à identifier des gènes spécifiques des souches d’intérêt technologique à travers l’analyse des plasmides et génomes. Face aux difficultés rencontrées pour purifier les grands plasmides, seul le plasmide pOENI-1 a été étudié. Ce travail a révélé différentes formes plasmidiques regroupées en une famille nommée « pOENI-1 ». Plusieurs gènes accessoires ont été identifiés et deux d’entre eux ont été détectés chez les souches associées aux fermentations malolactiques spontanées. La comparaison des génomes de souches aux propriétés technologiques diverses a également révélé des séquences génétiques qui leur sont spécifiques. L’ensemble de ces travaux a permis d’identifier plusieurs gènes dont la distribution statistique parmi les souches d’O. oeni a été analysée par la construction de courbes ROC. Ces courbes permettent d’évaluer la qualité des gènes en tant que marqueurs génétiques des souches d’intérêt technologique. Il est donc maintenant possible d’orienter la sélection des nouveaux levains malolactiques par l’utilisation des données génétiques et des outils statistiques décrits dans cette étude. / Oenococcus oeni plays an essential role in the production of wine. Adapted to acidic and alcohol rich environments, it is the lactic acid bacterium species that is naturally selected to conduct malolactic fermentation (MLF). It is also the main species that is selected and used industrially as malolactic starter. However, there is a huge phenotypic diversity among strains of O. oeni, which includes a variability of technological properties such as resistance to freeze-drying, resistance to inoculation into the wine and the ability to quickly achieve the MLF. Many genes involved in adaptation to wine have been identified but have not always proven effective in selecting wine strains. In this context, this study aimed to identify genes that are specific strains of technological interest through the analysis of genomes and plasmids. Due to difficulties encountered to purify large plasmids, only the plasmid pOENI-1 was studied. This work has revealed several different but related plasmids that were grouped into a family named "pOENI-1". Several accessory genes have been identified and two of them were detected in O. oeni strains associated with spontaneous MLF. Comparing the genomes of strains showing various technological properties also revealed genetic sequences that are specific of those strains. Altogether, these works have revealed several genes whose statistical distribution among O. oeni strains was analyzed by constructing ROC curves. These curves are used to assess the quality of genes as genetic markers of strains of technological interest. It is now possible to guide the selection of new malolactic starters by the use of genetic data and statistical tools described in this study.
