9 ± 34.0); LC = 333.8 ± 22.1; p less then .001], magnesium (mg) [HF = 353.1 ± 17.4; LC = 281.1 ± 18.0; p less then .001], and iron (mg) [HF = 14.6 ± 0.8; LC = 10.7 ± 0.6; p less then .001. Both groups consumed less than the respective EAR for vitamins D and E and less than the AI for potassium. While a LC diet may be more effective for long-term weight loss, both diets were deficient in micronutrients.In this study, the color of the dry fruiting bodies, fresh weight (FW) dry weight (DW) ratio, amino acids, and total phenolics, which are of nutritional or commercial interest, were compared among different drying temperature treatments. The effect of rehydration methods and color protection reagents on the fruiting body color, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity, and browning inhibition rate were evaluated. The results showed that drying with hot air at 65℃ was quickest and resulted in a better color without compromising the FWDW ratio and rehydration ratio of the fruiting bodies. Furthermore, some reactions that occurred under high temperatures increased the content of protein, amino acids, and total phenolics. Soaking after boiling was the most suitable rehydration method, leading to the lowest PPO activity (39.87 ± 1.35 U/g). All of the four analyzed color protection reagents could significantly inhibit the browning of Yu Muer fruiting bodies under room temperature water rehydration conditions, with a citric acid content of 6 g/L showing the best performance. These results provide technical support for the development of the Yu Muer industry and for promoting the commercial processing of Yu Muer fruiting bodies slices.Space mutation is an efficient tool in microbial breeding. The aim of the present study was to screen out space-induced mutants of Lactobacillus plantarum with potent probiotic properties. The wild-type Lactobacillus plantarum GS18 was subjected to 31 days and 18.5 hr of space flight, in which 13 isolates were selected for analysis. These mutants were assayed for milk fermentation performance, low pH resistance, bile salt tolerance, hydrophobicity, and antimicrobial activity. The 16S rDNA sequencing was applied to identify the stain and compare it with the wild type. Results showed that the isolate L. plantarum SS18-50 had the strongest probiotic properties with no mutation in 16S rRNA sequence compared to the wild type. Specifically, L. plantarum SS18-50 had good milk fermentation performance. The viscosity of fermented milk, acid tolerance, and bile salt tolerance were increased by approximately 10%, 8%, and 9%, respectively (p less then .05). [https://www.selleckchem.com/products/incb084550.html PD-1/PD-L1-IN-8] The antibacterial activity (Escherichia Coli, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Listeria Monocytogenes) was also increased significantly compared to the wild type (p less then .05). This study indicates that L. plantarum SS18-50 has the great potential to serve as a probiotic for dairy products.This study was aimed to isolate and partially characterizes the bacteriocin produced by an L. plantarum sp. isolated from traditional sourdough. The bacteriocin was partially purified, and after treating it with different harsh conditions, its antibacterial activity was evaluated against L. monocytogenes as an indicator. Also, the growth phase during which the bacteriocin is produced, and its mode of action, was examined. Finally, the molecular weight of this compound was evaluated by using SDS-PAGE analysis. According to the results, this bacteriocin had a molecular weight well lower than 10 kDa that was mainly produced at the early stationary phase and reached its highest activity (3,200 AU/ml) at the same stage. It was tolerant toward a wide range of pH (2-10), temperatures (-20 to 120°C), and high concentrations of NaCl. Notably, the bacteriocin-producing strain had proteolytic activity, while the bacteriocin produced by that showed resistance to proteolytic enzymes (pepsin, trypsin, and proteinase K). Also, it was revealed that the bacteriocin activity is mostly bacteriostatic so that it considerably inhibits pathogens' growth, particularly S. aureus, E. coli, and L. monocytogenes. These characteristics prove that strain and its bacteriocin can be considered as one of the most promising agents to use in the food industry.Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) incidence in cereal, especially in wheat products, is a serious worldwide challenge for human health. The objective of the current study was to survey the effect of various factors, including fermentation times, yeast levels, ingredients, and time/temperature combinations of the baking process on aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) reduction in order to modify parameters of the traditional cookie-making process. AFB1 levels were analyzed by an HPLC-fluorescence detector. The results revealed AFB1 levels significantly decreased during fermentation (%23.7), depending on an increase in the yeast level (2%) and fermentation time (90 min). Furthermore, there was a significant correlation between pH reduction and AFB1 decomposition. However, the formulation of the recipe did not show a significant effect on the detoxification of AFB1. The baking temperature increase in an admissible technological range (280°C for 15 min) more effectively reduced AFB1 content (%53.9). As a result, the exact control of the traditional process was able to significantly decreased AFB1 content as a serious health-threatening toxin in the final product (%75.9). However, AFB1 toxicity reduction should be considered seriously in the raw materials and such products.Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are candidate probiotic bacteria that can provide health benefits when delivered via functional foods. The purpose of this study was to isolate and characterize LAB from traditional cheeses consumed in north-west regions of Iran. A number of sixty traditional cheeses samples were collected and initially screened as LAB using biochemical and molecular methods. A fragment of 1,540 bp in size of 16s rRNA gene was amplified from 70 bacterial isolates. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was employed to differentiate LAB isolates. LAB isolates generated three different RFLP patterns using HinfI restriction enzyme. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that LAB isolates belonged to three genera including Enterococcus, Lactobacillus, and Lactococcus. Most of the isolated LAB strains belonged to Enterococcus spp. The antimicrobial performance of eight LAB isolates with different RFLP patterns ranged from 6.72 to 14.00 mm. It was concluded that molecular characterization of LAB strains in traditional cheeses will enhance our understanding of traditional food microbiota and will help to find bacterial strains with probiotic potential with great benefit both in health and industry.
