This study investigated the effects of untreated, milled, and fermented with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum No. 122 red lentils (Lens culinaris L.) on the quality and safety parameters of wheat bread (WB). The quantity (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 %) and type of lentils added significantly influenced WB specific volume. Bread with 10 % of fermented non-milled (FNM) and 15 % of fermented milled (FM) lentils exhibited lo...
This study aimed to assess how non-treated (N), milled (M), and with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum fermented (F) green lentils affect the quality and safety parameters, including volatile compound (VC) profile and acrylamide (AA) concentration, of wheat bread (WB). The overall acceptability (OA) of WB with 5, 10, 15, and 20% lentils, as well as with 25% the non-M F and N non-F lentils was similar to that of the...
The EU protein strategy encourages domestic protein-rich crop production, such as lentils, as the strategy for combating the problems associated with dependence on importing plant-based protein products [1]. While the nutrient absorption of lentils is mitigated due to existing antinutritional factors, the effect can be reduced using various food processing methods which include fermentation [2]. The aim of the ...
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the characteristics of non-treated and fermented [via submerged (SMF) and solid-state (SSF) fermentation using Pediococcus acidilactici] lentils (Lens culinaris) grown either in pure stands (L) or relay intercropped with winter rye (LR). It was observed that the lentils were suitable substrate for lacto-fermentation. Most of the free amino acid concentrations in...
Lacto-fermentation of proteins not only improves their biological and functional value but also causes nutritional and biochemical alteration as well as the formation of undesirable compounds, which needs to be monitored. The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in whey, milk, hemp and lupine protein characteristics (acidity, microbiological parameters, color characteristics, free amino acid (AA) profi...
In this study, the non-treated and lacto-fermented (with Lacticaseibacillus paracasei LUHS244) wholemeal of new breed lines of colored wheat (blue 8558-1 and black 8472-5) and traditional wheat "Silva", was evaluated for the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) viable count, acidity, color parameters, amino acid (AA) profile, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and biogenic amine content. The addition of 50, 100, 150, 200, a...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains (Lactiplantibacillus plantarum No.122 and Lacticaseibacillus casei No.210) and milling process on the solid-state fermented (for 24 h, at 30°C) green and red lentils (Lens culinaris L.) properties, chiefly pH, LAB viable counts, color coordinates, free amino acid (FAA) profile, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and biogenic amine...
The aim of this study was to apply raspberry (Ras), blueberry (Blu) and elderberry (Eld) industry by-products (BIB) for unripened cow milk curd cheese (U-CC) enrichment. Firstly, antimicrobial properties of the BIBs were tested, and the effects of the immobilization in agar technology on BIB properties were evaluated. Further, non-immobilized (NI) and agar-immobilized (AI) BIBs were applied for U-CC enrichment,...
In this study we hypothesized that the relations between the bovine colostrum (BC) microbiota, biogenic amine (BA) as well as volatile compound (VC) profiles can lead to new deeper insights concerning the BC changes during the biological preservation. To implement such an aim, BC samples were collected from 5 farms located in Lithuania and fermented with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Lacticaseibacillus para...
