Article Abstract

The present study was carried out with the objective of exploiting a yeast culture YB1, characterised as , to produce type II sourdough using all-purpose wheat flour. After optimisation using Face-centered Central Composite Design (FCCD), the fermentation parameters viz. inoculum size (%) and fermentation time (h) were found to be 11% (v/v) and 48 h, respectively, for minimum total sugars concentration and pH. Further, the type II sourdough was characterized under optimized conditions for biochemical, rheological, microbiological and volatilome profile. The results revealed reduction of fermentable carbohydrates (30-95%); viscosity (60%); phytic acid (64%) alongwith enhancement of total antioxidant activity (113%) after type II sourdough fermentation. Further, a total of 34 volatile compounds were detected with maximum concentration of butanoic acid which enhances aroma and aids to improve the shelf life of the sourdough.

Slow food for lactobacilli: characterization of 1,2-propanediol metabolism in FUA3697 in sourdough.

Some lactobacilli convert lactate to acetate and 1,2-propanediol in the stationary phase of growth, but the key enzyme of the pathway, lactaldehyde dehydrogenase, has not been characterized in any of the . It was, therefore, the aim of this study to characterize lactate to 1,2-propanediol conversion in FUA3697. The strain converted lactate to 1,2-propanediol during 14 days of incubation.

Traditional type I sourdoughs are being rediscovered and increasingly used in artisanal and industrial bakeries due to the unique taste and texture, potential health benefits, and longer shelf life they confer on to baked products. These unique properties are attributed to the diverse microbial communities of sourdough, comprising both yeasts and bacteria. The traditional preservation method for type I sourdough (i.

Bread is a major source of carbohydrates in Europe, and whole meal varieties may offer better metabolic responses and increased satiety than white bread. We compared the effects of three types of whole meal bread: whole meal yeast bread (WYB), whole meal sourdough bread (WSB), and whole meal sourdough and yeast bread (WSYB), on appetite regulation and metabolic outcomes in healthy subjects. The sourdough contained Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis and Maudiozyma humilis, and the process time depended on the leavening agent.

The global popularity of sourdough has increased the need for authentication methods, especially in the absence of regulatory frameworks. Traditional biochemical analyses are often labor-intensive whereas near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy offers a rapid non-destructive alternative. Here, a NIR-based method was developed to distinguish sourdough-containing breads from those leavened with baker's yeast.

The yeast genus (subphylum , family ) is mostly known from its type species, , a frequent colonizer of wine and sourdough bread fermentations. The genus currently contains 10 species that are typically found in various natural terrestrial environments in temperate and tropical climates. Here we employ taxogenomic analyses to investigate a large collection of strains obtained in multiple surveys we carried out in Asia, Australasia, North America, South America, and Europe, and to which we added several strains maintained in culture collections.
