Health benefits of fermented foods
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2017In the past, the beneficial effects of fermented foods on health were unknown, and so people primarily used fermentation to preserve foods, enhance shelf life, and improve flavour. Fermented foods became an important part of the diet in many cultures, and over time fermentation has been associated with many health benefits.

African fermented foods and probiotics
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2014Africa has an age old history of production of traditional fermented foods and is perhaps the continent with the richest variety of lactic acid fermented foods. These foods have a large impact on the nutrition, health and socio-economy of the people of the continent, often plagued by war, drought, famine and disease.

Fermentation: Foods and Nonalcoholic Beverages
2004There are many traditional fermented cereal foods and beverages, especially in Africa. Hetero- and homofermentative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are responsible for the fermentation, the former producing important flavor compounds. Fermentation reduces starch viscosity and improves protein quality and mineral bioavailability.

Microbial Interactions in Food Fermentations
Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, 2013Microbial interactions are important for the success and safety of food fermentations. Although much indispensable work has described the microbial succession in various fermentations, little is known about how the microbes present interact. Here, we discuss the various mechanisms of microbial interaction from trophic interactions to cell signaling. We

Microbial fermentation for food preservation.
2011This chapter discusses the important characteristics of antimicrobial metabolites produced during food fermentation, describes relevant mechanisms responsible for their biopreservation properties, and explores potential applications in various food systems (i.e., dairy products, cereal-based products, animal products, vegetable products, tea).

Genetics of Lactobacilli in Food Fermentations
1996Lactobacilli play a substantial role in food biotechnology and influence our quality of life by their fermentative and probiotic properties. Despite their obvious importance in fermentation ecology and biotechnology only recent years have brought some insight into the genetics of lactobacilli.
