Microbial consortia in meat processing environments

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2017
Microbial contamination in food processing plants can play a fundamental role in food quality and safety. The description of the microbial consortia in the meat processing environment is important since it is a first step in understanding possible routes of product contamination.

Development of a co‐culture of Ureibacillus thermosphaericus and Cupriavidus taiwanensis for inhibitors removal from hemicellulose prehydrolysate

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
For biofuels production, hemicellulose pre‐hydrolysate is considered as an attractive feedstock rich in fermentable sugars. The pre‐hydrolysate derived from lignocellulosic biomass comprises, along with sugars, several inhibitors which can hamper its efficient conversion.
