Stress responses in lactic acid bacteria
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2002Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitute a heterogeneous group of bacteria that are traditionally used to produce fermented foods. The industrialization of food bio-transformations increased the economical importance of LAB, as they play a crucial role in the development of the organoleptique and hygienic quality of fermented products.

Bacteriocins of lactic acid bacteria
Biochimie, 1988Lactic acid bacteria produce a variety of antagonistic factors that include metabolic end products, antibiotic-like substances and bactericidal proteins, termed bacteriocins. The range of inhibitory activity by bacteriocins of lactic acid bacteria can be either narrow, inhibiting only those strains that are closely related to the producer organism, or ...

Genetics of Lactic Acid Bacteria
2019The early genetic research on lactic acid bacteria (LAB) was dominated by studies on plasmid-associated phenomena, especially in lactococci. Historically, LAB have been clustered into three groups on the basis of sugars metabolism: the obligately homofermentative, the facultative heterofermentative, and the obligately heterofermentative.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitutes a group of gram-positive bacteria united by certain morphological, metabolic, and physiological characteristics. The fermentation patterns of heterofermentative LAB can also be profoundly affected by the presence of organic molecules able to act as electron acceptors and shift the direction from acetyl phosphate ...

The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from wine are located in two families and three genera (with several species and strains). The Lactobacillaceae, represented by the genus Lactobacillus, includes rod-shaped Gram-positive species and their respective strains (see Fig.

Freeze-Drying of Lactic Acid Bacteria
2014Lactic acid bacteria are of great importance for the food and biotechnology industry. They are widely used as starters for manufacturing food (e.g., yogurt, cheese, fermented meats, and vegetables) and probiotic products, as well as for green chemistry applications. Freeze-drying or lyophilization is a convenient method for preservation of bacteria. By

Immunomodulatory function of lactic acid bacteria
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1999Using mice, we found that oral administration of Bifidobacterium breve YIT4064 (B. breve) activated the humoral immune system, augmented anti-rotavirus IgA production or anti-influenza virus (IFV) IgG production and protected against rotavirus infection or influenza infection, respectively. Furthermore, when the B.

Lactic acid bacteria in fish: a review
Aquaculture, 1998Fish are continuously exposed to a wide range of microorganisms present in the environment, and the microbiota of fish have been the subject of several reviews. This review evaluates lactic acid bacteria in fish, and focuses on the several investigations that have demonstrated that Streptococcus, Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and Carnobacterium belong to

Genomic organization of lactic acid bacteria
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1996Current knowledge of the genomes of the lactic acid bacteria, Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus thermophilus, and members of the genera Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus and Carnobacterium, is reviewed. The genomes contain a chromosome within the size range of 1.8 to 3.4 Mbp.

Biosynthesis of bacteriocins in lactic acid bacteria
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1996A large number of new bacteriocins in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been characterized in recent years. Most of the new bacteriocins belong to the class II bacteriocins which are small (30-100 amino acids) heat- stable and commonly not post-translationally modified.
