Cyclic lipodepsipeptides produced by Pseudomonas spp. naturally present in raw milk induce inhibitory effects on microbiological inhibitor assays for antibiotic residue screening.

ABSTRACT: Two Pseudomonas strains, identified as closely related to Pseudomonas tolaasii, were isolated from milk of a farm with frequent false-positive Delvotest results for screening putative antibiotic residues in raw milk executed as part of the regulatory quality programme. Growth at 5 to 7°C of these isolates in milk resulted in high lipolysis and the production of bacterial inhibitors. The two main bacterial inhibitors have a molecular weight of 1168.7 and 1140.7 Da respectively, are heat-tolerant and inhibit Geobacillus stearothermophilus var. calidolactis, the test strain of most of the commercially available microbiological inhibitor tests for screening of antibiotic residues in milk. Furthermore, these bacterial inhibitors show antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and B. subtilis and also interfere negatively with yoghurt production. Following their isolation and purification with RP-HPLC, the inhibitors were identified by NMR analysis as cyclic lipodepsipeptides of the viscosin group. Our findings bring to light a new challenge for quality control in the dairy industry. By prolonging the refrigerated storage of raw milk, the keeping quality of milk is influenced by growth and metabolic activities of psychrotrophic bacteria such as pseudomonads. Besides an increased risk of possible spoilage of long shelf-life milk, the production at low temperature of natural bacterial inhibitors may also result in false-positive results for antibiotic residue screening tests based on microbial inhibitor assays thus leading to undue production loss.

Project description:Among the bacterial genera that are used for cheese production, Lactobacillus is a key taxon of high industrial relevance that is commonly present in commercial starter cultures for dairy fermentations. Certain lactobacilli play a defining role in the development of the organoleptic features during the ripening stages of particular cheeses. We performed an in-depth 16S rRNA gene-based microbiota analysis coupled with internally transcribed spacer-mediated Lactobacillus compositional profiling of 21 common Italian cheeses produced from raw milk in order to evaluate the ecological distribution of lactobacilli associated with this food matrix. Statistical analysis of the collected data revealed the existence of putative Lactobacillus community state types (LCSTs), which consist of clusters of Lactobacillus (sub)species. Each LCST is dominated by one or two taxa that appear to represent keystone elements of an elaborate network of positive and negative interactions with minor components of the cheese microbiota. The results obtained in this study reveal the existence of peculiar cheese microbiota assemblies that represent intriguing targets for further functional studies aimed at dissecting the species-specific role of bacteria in cheese manufacturing.IMPORTANCE The microbiota is known to play a key role in the development of the organoleptic features of dairy products. Lactobacilli have been reported to represent one of the main components of the nonstarter bacterial population, i.e., bacteria that are not deliberately added to the milk, harbored by cheese, although the species-level composition of this microbial population has never been assessed in detail. In the present study, we applied a recently developed metagenomic approach that employs an internally transcribed spacer to profile the Lactobacillus population harbored by cheese produced from raw milk at the (sub)species level. The obtained data revealed the existence of particular Lactobacillus community state types consisting of clusters of Lactobacillus (sub)species that tend to cooccur in the screened cheeses. Moreover, analysis of covariances between members of this genus indicate that these taxa form an elaborate network of positive and negative interactions that define specific clusters of covariant lactobacilli.
