The art of mabisi production : A traditional fermented milk
Fermented dairy products can be rich in beneficial microbes and one such product with potential is mabisi. Mabisi is a traditional fermented milk product from Zambia made through spontaneous fermentation of raw milk at ambient temperature using a calabash (gourd), clay pot, plastic or metal container. The fermentation takes about 48 hours after whi...
Delivery of genome editing tools by bacterial extracellular vesicles
Here we propose to use bacterial cells as factories that generate EVs harboring both the RNP complex (or any other CRISPR‐mediated tool) and a specific ligand molecule. The ligand would allow specific binding of EVs to cells with the matching receptors, adding a level of specificity to the delivery, hence stimulating precise genome editing.

Dynamic modelling of brewers’ yeast and Cyberlindnera fabianii co-culture behaviour for steering fermentation performanc...
Co-cultivation of brewers' yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) with Cyberlindnera fabianii makes it possible to steer aroma and alcohol levels by changing the inoculation ratio of the two yeasts. A dynamic model was developed based on mono-culture performance of brewers' yeast and C. fabianii in controlled bioreactors with aerated wort as medium, desc...

Use of propidium monoazide followed by 16S rDNA sequencing in order to discriminate live and dead cells in surface and f...
Classical microbiological analyses have been the “Gold standard” in food microbiology in order to detect and quantify bacteria in food and surface samples. However, these methods bear the limitation of the ability of bacteria to grow on the used media. Advances in sequencing methods have allowed analysing the bacterial DNA in different types of sam...
Inefficient Metabolism of the Human Milk Oligosaccharides Lacto-N-tetraose and Lacto-N-neotetraose Shifts Bifidobacteriu...
Human milk contains a high concentration of indigestible oligosaccharides, which likely mediated the coevolution of the nursing infant with its gut microbiome. Specifically, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis (B. infantis) often colonizes the infant gut and utilizes these human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) to enrich their abundance. In this stu...
