Abstract:
The present invention relates to a Siphoviridae bacteriophage Esc-COP-9 (Accession number: KCTC 13131BP) isolated from nature, which has the ability to specifically kill Escherichia coli and which includes a genome expressed by SEQ. ID. NO: 1, and to a method of preventing and treating a pathogenic Escherichia coli infection using a composition including the same as an active ingredient.
Abstract:
Disclosed are Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 753 and uses thereof, a silage additive and silage. Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 753 is deposited in China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center with an accession number of CGMCC 18233. Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 753 can improve the quality of silage in a high-temperature and high-humidity region, and the silage processed by Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 753 has good stability and low pH, low aflatoxin B1 content and less dry matter loss. In addition, secondary fermentation can be avoided in the silage processed by Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 753 when a silo or bale for silage is opened.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods of producing ensiled plant materials using the anaerobic bacterium Megasphaera elsdenii and ensiled plant materials thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to Myoviridae bacteriophage Esc-COP-9 (Accession No. KCTC 13131BP) isolated from nature, which has a genome represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 and an ability to specifically kill E.coli, and a method for preventing and treating pathogenic E. coli infections by using a composition comprising the same as an active ingredient.
Abstract:
The invention relates to compositions for use as silage inoculants comprising a yeast strain, one or more bacterial stains, and a suitable carrier. The invention also relates to methods of improving livestock animal silage and meat and milk performance of a livestock animal.
Abstract:
Granulated pineapple leaves and stalks dried to correspond to a predetermined fermentation condition are fermented in an anaerobic bacteria fermentative environment in a predetermined room temperature with 15% or more and less than 50% moisture content, or 20 to 40% moisture content maintained therein, to form a pineapple-based feed or pet food ingredient of dryness and low-fermentation condition.
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel protective cultures, containing lactic acid-producing bacteria for preserving foodstuffs or animal feed, which can only be conserved for a limited period of time, even under refrigeration. The protective cultures can inhibit the growth of bacteria which are dangerous to the consumer, if the cold chain is interrupted, or if the prescribed cooling temperature is exceeded. The invention further relates to foodstuffs or animal feed which contain the inventive protective cultures. The strain Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis 1526 is specifically provided.
Abstract:
Methods and expression constructs are provided for the cloning and overexpression of xylanases of fungai origin in a selected microbial host cell. Xylanases of fungal origin generally have lower pH optima and remain stable over a broader pH range than do xylanases of bacterial origin. The present invention provides for the high level production of fungal xylanases which are may be used in a variety of industrial applications requiring xylanase activity at a low pH.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process of preserving forage, a Lactobacillus plantarum strain used in the process, the use of the strain in the preservation of forage, and forage preserved according to the invention. The bacterial strain is preferably used in combination with at least one other preservative, such as cellulase and oragnic acid and/or in combination with at least one other lactic acid bacterium.
