Microbial Safety of Legumes—A Review: Bacterial Contamination, Foodborne Outbreaks, and Traditional and Innovative Mitigation Strategies

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Demand for plant‐based foods, including legumes, is growing as a result of consumer preferences shifting toward food sustainability and plant‐based, protein‐rich foods. However, to ensure the food safety of such alternatives, assessing the prevalence of foodborne pathogens related to these products is critical, especially with their increasing

A High Esterifying Enzyme-Producing Rhizopus Strain for Fortified Daqu: Screening, Preparation, and Microbial Community Characterization

Foods
To explore microbial resources for ester production in sub-high-temperature Daqu, this study first established that the esterifying enzyme activity in Daqu predominantly originated from fungi, with Rhizopus being the dominant fungal genus.

Improving the Yield of Glucoamylase and α-amylase in Solid-state Co-culture

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
Steamed rice inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae, called Koji, is an essential ingredient for making amazake or brewing sake. However, A. oryzae usually offers low enzyme yield, especially in case of glucoamylase.

Fermentation and Enzymatic Pre‐Treatments to Modulate Sensory Properties of Extruded Plant‐Based Meat Alternatives

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Fermentation, enzymatic hydrolysis, and enzymatic crosslinking are emerging pre‐treatments to improve the sensory properties of extruded plant‐based meat alternatives. This review critically examines current literature to identify underlying mechanisms, benefits, and key research gaps associated with these pre‐treatments.

The effects of tempe fermented with Rhizopus microsporus, Rhizopus oryzae, or Rhizopus stolonifer on the colonic luminal environment in rats

Journal of Functional Foods, 2018
Tempe fermented with Rhizopus microsporus has several health benefits. However, the effects of tempe fermented with other fungal species of the genus Rhizopus are largely unknown. Rats were fed a high-fat diet, which was supplemented with 20% tempe fermented with either R. microsporus (RM), R. oryzae (RO), or R. stolonifer (RS).

Monocyte-mediated damage to Rhizopus oryzae hyphae in vitro [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1982
Clinicopathological correlations from human cases and experimental animal studies suggest that neutrophils are critical components of the host response to mucormycosis but that other cellular defense mechanisms appear to be important as well. Since our previous studies demonstrated that Rhizopus oryzae hyphae which are too large to be ingested ...

Lipase Stability in Structured Lipid Synthesis: The Interplay of Substrate Characteristics and Strategies to Improve Its Operational Performance—A Critical Review

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Structured lipids (SLs) have attracted growing industrial interest due to their associated health benefits. Lipases, as highly selective and versatile biocatalysts, are central to the sustainable synthesis of SLs attributed to their ability to operate under mild reaction conditions. However, the limited operational stability of lipases remains

Exploring the Antifungal Potential of the Brown Macroalga Hormophysa triquetra: Morphological Disruptions and Structural Changes in Plant Pathogens

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Extracts of Hormophysa triquetra showed antifungal activity with marked hyphal deformities in Fusarium oxysporum and Alternaria alternata. Light microscopy and SEM confirmed structural alterations despite unchanged radial growth. Cucumber assays validated reduced disease incidence, linked to fatty‐acid–rich metabolites detected by GC–MS.
