Lactic Acid Production Paths From Organic Sources, Julio Alexander Canas Reyes
Lactic Acid Production Paths From Organic Sources, Julio Alexander Canas Reyes
English Language Institute
The research for better options in the industry of lactic acid production is a modern concern to solve in the most efficient way, in which we achieve the preservation of food security, a sustainable and economic viable production, and solutions to reduce global plastic pollution adopting biodegradable alternatives. There must be a previous critic evaluation to start production that considers the specific substrate and its characteristics, desire product, viability in a social and economic way, and fermentative microorganism.
16s Rrna Gene Sequence Analysis Of Acetic And Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated From Philippine Sugarcane Wine (Basi) [Research Note], John Russel G. Sevilla, Michael Angelo S. Esteban, Honey Bhabes R. Iñigo, Audrey May V. Orillaza, Baby Richard R. Navarro
16s Rrna Gene Sequence Analysis Of Acetic And Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated From Philippine Sugarcane Wine (Basi) [Research Note], John Russel G. Sevilla, Michael Angelo S. Esteban, Honey Bhabes R. Iñigo, Audrey May V. Orillaza, Baby Richard R. Navarro
The Philippine Agricultural Scientist
Basi, a traditional sugarcane wine of the Philippines, was studied. Here, we used molecular- and cultural-based methods to isolate, identify and characterize acid-producing bacteria, specifically acetic and lactic acid bacteria, from basi. Acid producers were focused on owing to the rapid spoilage of basi via acidification with air exposure. Two strains each of acetic and lactic acid bacteria were isolated. DNA was extracted from these isolates. PCR-amplified DNA products were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The sequences of the isolates were then aligned with BLAST database sequences and found to have high similarities to Acetobacter malorum (99%), …
The Effects Of Wort Oxygenation Scenarios On Fermentation Performance, Volatile Flavor Compound Development, And Flavor Stability In High Gravity Brewing, Ben Jabson
Master's Theses
High gravity (HG) brewing has become the most used strategy for maximizing fermenter productivity in commercial brewing. While HG brewing has many benefits, the additional stress placed on the yeast due to the higher concentration of fermentable sugars in the wort can negatively impact fermentation performance and flavor compound formation. A proper dissolved oxygen (DO) level is vital to guarantee adequate yeast performance during HG fermentations. Dissolved oxygen is vital to yeast viability throughout the fermentation process, as yeast requires oxygen to synthesize vital cell membrane components needed for continued anaerobic growth and cell division. Previous research has demonstrated the …
Improving Nutritional Properties And Extractability Of Pea Proteins For Human Consumption Via Fungal Bioprocessing, Camille Massmann
Improving Nutritional Properties And Extractability Of Pea Proteins For Human Consumption Via Fungal Bioprocessing, Camille Massmann
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Yellow peas are a rich source of protein and phytochemicals. Peas are compatible with many diets restricted by sensitivities, allergies, or personal choice. As a result, peas are gaining popularity in food markets, despite the challenges they present. The biggest challenges for pea proteins in food markets are high content of fiber, starch, and saponins. These components cause processing challenges and create undesirable textures and bitter flavors. Pea proteins are typically extracted with alkaline extraction or air classification methods which result in 80% and 50% protein products respectively. With low protein purity, these products are not competitive with other, more …
Investigation Of Fermentation Efficiency In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Through Telomere Integrity And Maltase Expression, Dana Bennett
Investigation Of Fermentation Efficiency In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Through Telomere Integrity And Maltase Expression, Dana Bennett
All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects
Many microbreweries practice serial fermentation, or serial repitching. Serial repitching is the process by which one yeast culture is reused for multiple batches of beer. Each batch of subsequent beer is called a “pitch.” This technique helps breweries limit production costs. However, fermentation is difficult to predict throughout serial fermentation. This leads to beer quality issues such as fluctuation in alcohol production, buildup of unwanted flavor compounds, and decreased carbon dioxide production, which results in reduced profit. To combat this issue, many breweries will attempt to predict fermentation efficiency through viable cell counting in order to ensure a consistent number …
