    Antimicrobial Activity of Grape Seed Extract on Alicyclobacillus Acidoterrestris Dsm 3922 Vegetative Cells and Spores in Apple Juice
    (Academic Press Inc., 2015) Molva, Çelenk; Baysal, Ayşe Handan
    The present study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of grape seed extract (GSE) against Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris vegetative cells and spores in apple juice (pH 3.82, °Brix 11.3) during storage at 37°C. After 336h, reductions in the cell numbers were 3.14, 3.55, 3.8, 4.1, and 4.63 logCFU/mL in the apple juice with 0.23, 0.45, 0.9, 1.8, and 3.6% of GSE, respectively. The Weibull was found to be the best fitted model for cell inactivation kinetics (R2>0.988). Moreover, the spores produced on different sporulation media (potato dextrose agar, malt extract agar, Bacillus acidoterrestris agar, and Bacillus acidocaldarius agar) were treated with GSE (0-1.9%, v/v). While control spores in apple juice without GSE increased by 2.2-2.6logCFU/mL within the first 48h, 0.9% and 1.8% of GSE inhibited the growth from all spore suspensions. Finally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated that the main target of the GSE may be the membrane of A. acidoterrestris cells leading to leakage of cellular constituents and may prevent the development of spores into vegetative cells. This study highlights the potential use of the by-products of the fruit juice/beverage industry as natural antimicrobials to inhibit the growth of A. acidoterrestris. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

    Evaluation of Bioactivity of Pomegranate Fruit Extract Against Alicyclobacillus Acidoterrestris Dsm 3922 Vegetative Cells and Spores in Apple Juice
    (Academic Press Inc., 2015) Molva, Çelenk; Baysal, Ayşe Handan
    This research evaluated the antimicrobial activity of commercial pomegranate extract (POMELLA®, PE) against Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris vegetative cells and spores (approximately 105 log CFU/mL) in apple juice (pH 3.82, °Brix 11.3) during storage at 37°C. After 240h, the cell counts were reduced from the initial log count (CFU/mL) by 2.84, 3.26, 3.32, 3.46 and 3.56 in the apple juice with PE at the concentrations of 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 40μg/mL, respectively. On the other hand, counts of the control reached 7.36 log CFU/mL after 24h. The Weibull model satisfactorily described the survival curves of cell inactivation kinetics (R2 > 0.983). While the growth of all spores obtained from different sporulation media (potato dextrose agar, malt extract agar, Bacillus acidoterrestris agar, and Bacillus acidocaldarius agar) was inhibited in the apple juice with PE (2.5-40μg/mL), the control spores increased by 1.9-2.2 log CFU/mL after 336h. Based on the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging, vegetative cells indicated substantial damage and spore germination was inhibited in the apple juice with PE. The results showed that PE can have possible uses as a natural antimicrobial to control the growth of A.acidoterrestris vegetative cells and spore germination in the apple juice. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

    Effect of Sporulation Medium on Wet-Heat Resistance and Structure of Alicyclobacillus Acidoterrestris Dsm 3922-Type Strain Spores and Modeling of the Inactivation Kinetics in Apple Juice
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Molva, Çelenk; Baysal, Ayşe Handan
    Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris is a spoilage bacterium in fruit juices leading to high economic losses. The present study evaluated the effect of sporulation medium on the thermal inactivation kinetics of A. acidoterrestris DSM 3922 spores in apple juice (pH3.82±0.01; 11.3±0.1 °Brix). Bacillus acidocaldarius agar (BAA), Bacillus acidoterrestris agar (BATA), malt extract agar (MEA), potato dextrose agar (PDA) and B. acidoterrestris broth (BATB) were used for sporulation. Inactivation kinetic parameters at 85, 87.5 and 90°C were obtained using the log-linear model. The decimal reduction times at 85°C (D85°C) were 41.7, 57.6, 76.8, 76.8 and 67.2min; D87.5°C-values were 22.4, 26.7, 32.9, 31.5, and 32.9min; and D90°C-values were 11.6, 9.9, 14.7, 11.9 and 14.1min for spores produced on PDA, MEA, BATA, BAA and BATB, respectively. The estimated z-values were 9.05, 6.60, 6.96, 6.15, and 7.46, respectively. The present study suggests that the sporulation medium affects the wet-heat resistance of A. acidoterrestris DSM 3922 spores. Also, the dipicolinic acid content (DPA) was found highest in heat resistant spores formed on mineral containing media. After wet-heat treatment, loss of internal volume due to the release of DPA from spore core was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Since, there is no standardized media for the sporulation of A. acidoterrestris, the results obtained from this study might be useful to determine and compare the thermal resistance characteristics of A. acidoterrestris spores in fruit juices. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
