Streptococcus thermophilus Phages in Whey Derivatives: From Problem to Application in the Dairy Industry
(MDPI AG, 2022-04)
Fifteen samples of whey protein concentrate (WPC) were tested against 37 commercial Streptococcus thermophilus strains to detect infective bacteriophages. Seventy-three diverse phages were isolated from 12 samples, ...
Phage adsorption to Lactobacillus plantarum: influence of physiological and environmental factors.
(Elsevier Science, 2010-03)
Bacteriophage infection of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitutes one of the major problems in the dairy industry, causing economic losses and a constant risk of low quality and/or unsafe foods. The first step in the phage ...
Diversity among Lactobacillus paracasei phages isolated from a probiotic dairy product plant
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009)
Aims: To evaluate the phage diversity in the environment of a dairy industry which manufactures a product fermented with a probiotic strain of Lactobacillus paracasei.Methods and results: Twenty-two Lact. paracasei phages ...
Characterization of two temperate lactobacillus paracasei bacteriophages: Morphology, kinetics and adsorption
(Karger, 2015-03)
Background/Aims: Adsorption and kinetic parameters, latent period, burst size and burst time, are characteristics of phage/host systems and can be affected by several environmental factors. As only few studies have focused ...
Resistance of foodborne pathogen coliphages to additives applied in food manufacture
(Elsevier Science, 2016-04)
In order to evaluate whether coliphages can be used in combination with food additives, six lytic phages against pathogenic Escherichia coli strains were tested for their resistance to additives commonly used in the dairy ...
Bacteriophages on dairy foods
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-01)
This review focuses on the impact of bacteriophages on the manufacture of dairy foods. Firstly, the impact of phages of lactic acid bacteria in the dairy industry, where they are considered enemies, is discussed. The sources ...
Evaluation of an WPC edible film added with a cocktail of six lytic phages against foodborne pathogens such as enteropathogenic and Shigatoxigenic Escherichia coli
(Elsevier Science, 2019-10)
Active packaging materials with antimicrobial properties have gained significant interest over the last decade. Furthermore, phages are potentially useful as antimicrobial agents in food. Phage stability assays were conducted ...
Long-run bacteria-phage coexistence dynamics under natural habitat conditions in an environmental biotechnology system
(Nature Publishing Group, 2021-03)
Bacterial viruses are widespread and abundant across natural and engineered habitats. They influence ecosystem functioning through interactions with their hosts. Laboratory studies of phage–host pairs have advanced our ...
Characterization of spontaneous phage-resistant derivatives of Lactobacillus delbrueckii commercial strains
(Elsevier Science, 2006-12)
A total of 44 spontaneous phage-resistant mutants were isolated from three commercial Lactobacillus delbrueckii strains by secondary culture and agar plate methods. Phenotypic characteristics related to their phage-resistance ...
HostPhinder: A Phage Host Prediction Tool
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2016-05-04)
he current dramatic increase of antibiotic resistant bacteria has revitalised the interest in bacteriophages as alternative antibacterial treatment. Meanwhile, the development of bioinformatics methods for analysing genomic ...
