Production and Multi‐Criteria Evaluation of Healthy White Cheese Snacks Using Microwave‐Vacuum Drying

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Microwave‐assisted vacuum drying (MVD) is an emerging technology suitable for producing healthy snack foods, such as cheese snacks. This study aimed to produce a low‐fat, low‐salt, crunchy cheese snack using MVD. Low‐fat, low‐salt cheese slices were dried under seven different combinations of microwave power (5%–15%), vacuum level (220–300 ...

Microbial Community Shifts and Plant Performance Improvements Driven by Bacillus firmus in Pampa Agroecosystems

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
The study shows that Bacillus firmus‐based bionematicides modulate soil microbiota and enhance soybean growth in the Pampa biome. Effects vary by location and time, with increased beneficial bacteria, reduced fungi, and decreased root nematode infestation. Overall, B.

Simultaneous biosynthesis of (R)-acetoin and ethylene glycol from D-xylose through in vitro metabolic engineering

Metabolic Engineering Communications, 2018
(R)-acetoin is a four-carbon platform compound used as the precursor for synthesizing novel optically active materials. Ethylene glycol (EG) is a large-volume two-carbon commodity chemical used as the anti-freezing agent and building-block molecule for ...

Milk‐Clotting Protease From Bacillus stercoris NCCP‐3139: A Potential Microbial Rennet for Cheese Production

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
A milk‐clotting protease from Bacillus stercoris NCCP‐3139 was isolated from soil and purified via ammonium sulfate precipitation and sequential chromatographic techniques, yielding a homogeneous enzyme confirmed by SDS–PAGE. The protease exhibited high catalytic selectivity, with a marked increase in milk‐clotting‐to‐proteolytic activity ratio (50–550)

Acetolactate and Acetoin Synthesis in Ripening Peas [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1964
The role of acetolactate as a precursor in valine biosynthesis was first indicated by the isotopic studies of Strassman et al. (18) and was subsequently supported by work on valine-less mutants of Escherichia coli (21, 22) and Neurospora, crassa (24).

Formate hydrogen lyase mediates stationary-phase deacidification and increases survival during sugar fermentation in acetoin-producing enterobacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Two fermentation types exist in the Enterobacteriaceae family. Mixed-acid fermenters produce substantial amounts of lactate, formate, acetate and succinate, resulting in lethal medium acidification.

A ‘Genome‐First’ Framework for Next‐Generation Bioinputs: From Functional Mining to Rational Synthetic Microbial Communities

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
I propose a ‘genome‐first’ framework to collapse the phenotypic bottleneck in bioinput discovery. By integrating multi‐layered genome mining and reverse ecology, this paradigm enables the rational design of stable synthetic microbial communities for a data‐driven and sustainable agricultural bioeconomy.

Stimulation of Fermentation in Yeasts by Acetoin and Oxygen

Nature, 1966
IN Warburg experiments with ‘resting’ cells, most yeasts show a Pasteur effect, that is, fermentation of glucose is inhibited under aerobic conditions. This effect is generally regarded as an inhibition of fermentation by respiration, for example, as a result of a lack of inorganic phosphate (Pi) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP)1,2.
