Comparative assessment of qPCR enumeration methods that discriminate between live and dead Escherichia coli O157:H7 on beef
Download2018-01-01
Laidlaw, Anna M., Gänzle, Michael G., Yang, Xianqin
Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) is a molecular method commonly used to detect and quantify bacterial DNA on food but is limited by its inability to distinguish between live and dead cell DNA. To overcome this obstacle, propidium monoazide (PMA) alone or with deoxycholate (DC) was...

Comparative genomics of Lactobacillus reuteri from sourdough reveals adaptation of an intestinal symbiont to food fermentations
Download2015
Zhao, Xin, Gänzle, Michael G., Lin, Xiaoxi B., Zheng, Jinshui
Lactobacillus reuteri is a dominant member of intestinal microbiota of vertebrates, and occurs in food fermentations. The stable presence of L. reuteri in sourdough provides the opportunity to study the adaptation of vertebrate symbionts to an extra-intestinal habitat. This study evaluated this...

Ripari, Valery, Gänzle, Michael G.
Sourdough has traditionally been used as leavening agent in artisanal baking. The production of baked and steamed cereal products increasingly employs sourdough as baking improver to achieve improved bread quality, or to obtain “clean label” products. Sourdoughs are maintained in bakeries by...

Contribution of glutaminases to glutamine metabolism and acid resistance in Lactobacillus reuteri and other vertebrate host adapted lactobacilli
Download2020-04-01
Li, Qing, Tao, QianYing, Teixeira, Juanana S., Shu-Wei Su, Marcia, Gänzle, Michael G.
The bacterial conversion of glutamine to glutamate is catalyzed by glutamine-amidotransferases or glutaminases. Glutamine deamination contributes to the formation of the bioactive metabolites glutamate, γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) and γ-glutamyl peptides, and to acid resistance. This study aimed to...

Conversion of ginsenosides by Lactobacillus plantarum studied by liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole trap mass spectrometry
Download2015-01-01
Bai, Yunpeng, Gänzle, Michael G.
Ginsenosides are the active components responsible for the pharmacological properties of ginseng, a commonly used medicinal plant and food ingredient. This study aimed to determine the changes of ginsenosides during fermentation of ginseng extract or reference ginsenosides with Lactobacillus...

Detection of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli in food by droplet digital PCR to detect simultaneous virulence factors in a single genome
Download2020-09-01
He, Li, Simpson, David, Gänzle, Michael G.
Shiga toxin producing E. coli are a problem for food producers. STEC's require a combination of virulence factors to cause disease, so ideally detection techniques should detect the presence of multiple virulence factors in a single cell directly from food. Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) is commonly...

Development and validation of a surrogate strain cocktail to evaluate bactericidal effects of pressure on verotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Download2015-01-01
Garcia-Hernandez, Rigoberto, McMullen, Lynn, Gänzle, Michael G.
Many strains of verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) are highly resistant to pressure. To facilitate future studies to improve the elimination of VTEC by pressure processing of food, this study developed and validated a cocktail of non-pathogenic strains of E. coli with equal or higher...

Development of gluten-free breads started with chia and flaxseed sourdoughs fermented by selected lactic acid bacteria
Download2020-05-01
Maidana, Stefania Dentice, Finch, Susan, Garro, Marisa, Savoy, Graciela, Gänzle, Michael G., Vignolo, Graciela
Gluten-free baked goods are a challenge for biotechnologists and nutritionists because their low baking characteristics. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were identified and characterized from chia flour and spontaneously fermented sourdough. Based on techno-functional and safety properties, Weissella...

Diet and environment shape fecal bacterial microbiota composition and enteric pathogen load of grizzly bears
Download2011-01-01
Northrup, Joseph M., Cristescu, Bogdan, Schwab, Clarissa, Stenhouse, Gordon B., Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Diet and environment impact the composition of mammalian intestinal microbiota; dietary or health disturbances trigger alterations in intestinal microbiota composition and render the host susceptible to enteric pathogens. To date no long term monitoring data exist on the fecal...

Digestibility of branched and linear α-gluco-oligosaccharides in vitro and in ileal-cannulated pigs
Download2020-01-01
Hu, Ying, Heyer, Charlotte M.E., Wang, Weilan, Zijlstra, Ruurd T., Gänzle, Michael G.
Isomalto-oligosaccharides (IMOs) may promote health by modulating intestinal microbiota. We hypothesized that the proportion of α–(1 → 6) linkages in IMOs determines their digestibility. Ileal-cannulated pigs were fed diets containing IMO, IMO-DP3 with a greater DP and more α-(1 → 4) linkages,...
