Features and performance of edible films, obtained from whey protein isolate fo...
Ramos, Óscar L.; Silva, Sara I.; Soares, José C.; Fernandes, João C.; Poças, M. Fátima; Pintado, Manuela E.; Malcata, F. XavierThe goal of this research effort was to assess the efficacy of edible films produced fromwhey protein isolate (WPI) and glycerol, including incorporation of lactic acid (LA) and propionic acid (PRO), chitooligosaccharideswith nominal MW of 3 kDa (COS) and natamycin (NA) as antimicrobial agents. Their features were evaluated in vitro via agar diffusion and viable cell counting, against spoilage microflora often ...
Biodiversity and characterization of Staphylococcus species isolated from a sma...
Soares, José C.; Marques, M. Rosário; Tavaria, Freni K.; Pereira, Joana O.; Malcata, F. Xavier; Pintado, Manuela M.The level and the diversity of the staphylococcal community occurring in the environment and dairy products of a small manufacturing dairy plant were investigated. Species identification was performed using different molecular methods, viz. Multiplex-PCR, amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA), and sodA gene sequencing. The main species encountered corresponded to Staphylococcus equorum (41 isolat...
Antimicrobial effects of chitosans and chitooligosaccharides, upon Staphylococc...
Fernandes, João C.; Tavaria, Freni K.; Soares, José C.; Ramos, Óscar S.; Monteiro, M. João; Pintado, Manuela E.; Malcata, F. XavierThe objective of this study was to elucidate the controversial relationship between the molecular weight (MW) of chitosans and their antibacterial activity (upon different inoculum levels, at several concentrations). The influence of food components on the activity was also ascertained, as well as acceptance by a sensory panel. All the compounds tested exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aur...
