Article Abstract

The six synonyms currently accepted under Saccharomycodes ludwigii were investigated for by phenotypic properties, however, the sequence diversity of the rRNA and protein coding genes have not yet been determined. Nine strains including the type strains of synonyms of S. ludwigii deposited in the CBS yeast collection, Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, Utrecht, The Netherlands, were analyzed using a multi-locus sequence analysis (MLSA) approach that included sequences of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), the D1/D2 domains of the 26S rRNA, the ITS region (including the 5.8S rRNA) and fragments of genes encoding the largest subunit of the RNA polymerase II (RPB1 and RPB2) and translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1). Our results showed that the nine strains have identical D1/D2, 18S and RPB2 sequences and similar ITS, RPB1 and TEF1 sequences, which indicated that they are conspecific. In addition, a novel species of Saccharomycodes, S. pseudoludwigii sp. nov. (type CGMCC 2.4526) that was isolated from fruit and tree bark in China, is proposed. The MycoBank number of this new species is MB 811,650.

Fermentation to Increase the Value of Roasted Coffee Silverskin as a Functional Food Ingredient.

Foods

July 2025

Institute of Fermentation Technology and Microbiology, Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Sciences, Lodz University of Technology, 171/173 Wólczańska, 90-530 Lodz, Poland.

Roasted coffee silverskin (RCSS) is a by-product of coffee production characterized by its content of phenolic compounds, both free and bound to macromolecules. In this study, RCSS was fermented to release these compounds and consequently increase its value as a functional food ingredient. Fermentation was carried out using yeast, acetic acid bacteria, and lactic acid bacteria, either as single strains or as a designed microbial consortium.

This study aims to enhance understanding of probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) survival in high-hopped beer formulations and their interactions with different yeasts and highlights the fermentation processes, microbial metabolism, and production of distinctive beer flavors. For this, this research used Lacticaseibacillus paracasei F19 (F19), Saccharomycodes ludwigii, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains US-05 (US-05) and Kveik (Kveik) for brewing. Bacterial and yeast cultures were prepared, fermented in wort, and analyzed in different hop concentrations (International Bitterness Units - IBU 0, 20, 40).

While a recent characterization of non- thermally inactivated yeasts (TIYs) in a wine-like solution highlighted the release of oenologically relevant compounds and different oxygen consumption rates and antioxidant activity, here the impact of TIYs derived from (SL), (MP), (TD), and (SC), as the reference strain, was evaluated in white wine. Wine treatment with TIYs resulted in an increase in polysaccharide concentration compared to the untreated wine, with SL-TIY exhibiting the highest release. Additionally, all TIYs, particularly SL-TIY, improved protein stability by reducing heat-induced haze formation.

Article Synopsis
  • - The use of non-conventional brewing yeasts is gaining attention for developing healthier beers, but regulatory hurdles in the EU are hindering their widespread use in brewing.
  • - Research is focusing on the fermentation capabilities of thirteen species of Mrakia yeasts, particularly their taxonomic variations and how they compare to commercial yeast like Saccharomycodes ludwigii.
  • - Findings suggest that the M. gelida cluster demonstrates better fermentation performance, with one strain, M. blollopis DBVPG 4974, showing high ethanol tolerance and the ability to produce various acids, indicating potential for innovative brewing applications.
