Evaluation of Probiotic-Beverage Matrix Interaction for Efficient Control of Enterobacter aerogenes and Staphylococcus aureus

J Food Prot. 2019 Apr;82(4):669-676. doi: 10.4315/0362-028X.JFP-18-492.

Abstract

L. rhamnosus GG in sea buckthorn matrix inhibited E. aerogenes and S. aureus. L. rhamnosus GG was more efficient in sea buckthorn than in apple matrix. Enhanced protection in sea buckthorn matrix may be due to higher phenolic content. WPC and the probiotic increased the pseudoplasticity of the juice matrices.

Keywords: Apple; Food spoilage; Probiotics; Rheology; Sea buckthorn.
