Proteolysis by Sourdough Lactic Acid Bacteria: Effects on Wheat Flour Protein Fractions and Gliadin Peptides Involved in Human Cereal Intolerance

TL;DR: Compared to the chemically acidified dough, proteolysis by lactobacilli positively influenced the softening of the dough during fermentation, as determined by rheological analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytase activity in sourdough lactic acid bacteria: purification and characterization of a phytase from Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis CB1.

TL;DR: In this paper, the phytase activity of 12 species of sourdough lactic acid bacteria was screened and the results showed that Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis CB1 exhibited the highest hydrolysing activity on Na-phytate after reaching the stationary phase of growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteomic analysis of water soluble and myofibrillar protein changes occurring in dry-cured hams

TL;DR: Surprisingly, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis maps of the water soluble protein fraction from dry-cured ham showed the presence of two spots identified as tropomyosin α- and β-chain, which suggests that some of the saline soluble myofibrillar proteins can disappear from this fraction because of salt solubilization and not due to complete enzyme action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manufacture of Fior di Latte cheese by incorporation of probiotic lactobacilli.

TL;DR: Microbiological, compositional, biochemical, and sensory analyses showed that the use of L. delbrueckii ssp.

Proteomic approach based on MALDI-TOF MS to detect powdered milk in fresh cow's milk.

TL;DR: In this work, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was employed to analyze tryptic digests relevant to samples of raw liquid, commercial liquid, and powdered cow's milk, and diagnostic peptides were detected down to 1% of adulteration level.
