Host metabolic benefits of prebiotic exopolysaccharides produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides

Gut microbes, 2023
Fermented foods demonstrate remarkable health benefits owing to probiotic bacteria or microproducts produced via bacterial fermentation. Fermented foods are produced by the fermentative action of several lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc ...

Leuconostoc performance in soy-based fermentations - Survival, acidification, sugar metabolism, and flavor comparisons.

Food microbiology, 2023
Leuconostoc spp. is often regarded as the flavor producer, responsible for the production of acetoin and diacetyl in dairy cheese. In this study, we investigate seven plant-derived Leuconostoc strains, covering four species, in their potential as a ...

The role of dextran production in the metabolic context of Leuconostoc and Weissella Tunisian strains.

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2021
High molecular weight dextrans improve the rheological properties of fermented products and have immunomodulatory and antiviral activity. We report on 5.84 × 107-2.61 × 108 Da dextrans produced by Leuconostoc lactis AV1n, Weissella cibaria AV2ou and ...

Extrusion of Dissolved Oxygen by Exopolysaccharide From Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Its Implications in Relief of the Oxygen Stress [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Strains of Leuconostoc are generally facultatively anaerobic and exposure to oxygen might be detrimental; therefore, strategies to combat the oxygen stress are essential for these bacteria to survive and flourish in the oxygenic atmosphere.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects of <i>Hermetia illucens</i> Fermented With Riboflavin-Producing <i>Leuconostoc mesenteroides</i>KCCM13067P in RAW 264.7 Cells and Colitis Mouse Model. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Fermentation of Hermetia illucens with riboflavin‐producing Leuconostoc mesenteroides KCCM13067P enhanced vitamin B2 derivatives and bioactive metabolites, including amino acids and amines. The fermented product (HeHi_Lm) suppressed inflammatory responses in LPS‐stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages and alleviated DSS‐induced colitis in mice.

Lysogeny in Leuconostoc oenos [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1991
Thirty strains of Leuconostoc oenos were exposed to mitomycin C to induce lysogenic bacteriophages. Lysis curves typical for lysogenic strains were obtained with 19 strains. Indicator strans were found for 17 of these phages. Five were characterized by electron microscopy, lytic spectrum, molecular masses of the proteins, sequencing of five N-terminal ...

Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Exopolysaccharide Producing Bacteria Isolated from Fermented Fruits, Vegetables and Dairy Products

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) particularly, from Lactic acid bacteria have received increasing attention in food, medical, and pharmaceutical applications. The present work aims to isolate, characterize and identify exopoly saccharide-producing bacteria from ...

Reclassification of Leuconostoc argentinum as a later synonym of Leuconostoc lactis [PDF]

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 2006
Leuconostoc argentinum, Leuconostoc lactis and ten related strains from Romanian dairy products formed a single cluster, clearly separated from other Leuconostoc species, after numerical analysis of repetitive extragenic palindromic-PCR patterns, whole-cell protein profiles (SDS-PAGE) and fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (FAFLP) band ...

Comparative genome analysis of four Leuconostoc strains with a focus on carbohydrate-active enzymes and oligosaccharide utilization pathways

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
Leuconostoc is mostly found in food, plants, and dairy products. Due to their innate genomic features, such as the presence of carbohydrate-active enzymes, bacteriocins, and plasmids, Leuconostoc spp. have great biotechnological potential. In this study,
