Microbiota composition of dadih - a traditional fermented buffalo milk of West Sumatra.

ABSTRACT: Dadih is an Indonesian traditional spontaneously fermented buffalo milk, produced in West-Sumatra, which is nutritious and has health benefits. The mechanism of action behind the health benefits is largely unknown, but several probiotic strains have been isolated from dadih, which may contribute to its health properties. To identify the composition of its microbiota, two artisanal dadih samples (n = 8) were collected from four producers. The raw buffalo milk used for fermentation was either pasteurized (n = 4) or not (n = 4), and back-slopping was used as a starter-culture (n = 5) or not (n = 3). DNA was extracted from each sample in duplicate and the microbiota composition was determined by 16S-rRNA-gene amplicon-sequencing of the V3-V4 region. PCoA analysis showed clear separation of the samples by producer, but no separation due to pasteurization or use of back-slopping. Lactococcus (52-83%) predominated in all samples, followed by Klebsiella (5-26%), and Lactobacillaceae, Bifidobacterium (particularly high (c. 18%) in the non-pasteurized, back-slopped product from Palupuh), Streptococcus and Leuconostoc. Back-slopping practice correlated significantly with higher abundance of Lactobacillaceae, Pediococcus, species of the order Burkholderiales, and Serratia, but with lower abundance of several other Enterobacteriaceae (including Klebsiella), Streptococcaceae, Staphylococcus and Brachybacterium. Pasteurization was not significantly correlated with the presence of certain members of the final microbiota. Taken together, fermentation results differ significantly from producer to producer and back-slopping practice would be advisable. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Using state-of-the-art methods we determined the microbiota composition of dadih, an artisanal, traditional fermented buffalo milk of West Sumatra with health benefits. We show that the artisanal practice leaves room for standardization and optimization with respect to the presence of potential pathogenic species in the final product. The Dadih Initiative in Indonesia aims to expand production of this health promoting product, and the findings help to determine important steps for potential food safety issues and good-manufacturing-practices to obtain a safe, nutritious and healthy traditional yoghurt-like functional food.

Project description:The aim of this study was to define the microbiota of water buffalo milk during sub-clinical and clinical mastitis, as compared to healthy status, by using high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. A total of 137 quarter samples were included in the experimental design: 27 samples derived from healthy, culture negative quarters, with a Somatic Cell Count (SCC) of less than 200,000 cells/ml; 27 samples from quarters with clinical mastitis; 83 samples were collected from quarters with subclinical mastitis, with a SCC number greater of 200,000 cells/ml and/or culture positive for udder pathogens, without clinical signs of mastitis. Bacterial DNA was purified and the 16S rRNA genes were individually amplified and sequenced. Significant differences were found in milk samples from healthy quarters and those with sub-clinical and clinical mastitis. The microbiota diversity of milk from healthy quarters was richer as compared to samples with sub-clinical mastitis, whose microbiota diversity was in turn richer as compared to those from clinical mastitis. The core microbiota of water buffalo milk, defined as the asset of microorganisms shared by all healthy milk samples, includes 15 genera, namely Micrococcus, Propionibacterium, 5-7N15, Solibacillus, Staphylococcus, Aerococcus, Facklamia, Trichococcus, Turicibacter, 02d06, SMB53, Clostridium, Acinetobacter, Psychrobacter and Pseudomonas. Only two genera (Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas) were present in all the samples from sub-clinical mastitis, and no genus was shared across all in clinical mastitis milk samples. The presence of mastitis was found to be related to the change in the relative abundance of genera, such as Psychrobacter, whose relative abundance decreased from 16.26% in the milk samples from healthy quarters to 3.2% in clinical mastitis. Other genera, such as SMB53 and Solibacillus, were decreased as well. Discriminant analysis presents the evidence that the microbial community of healthy and clinical mastitis could be discriminated on the background of their microbiota profiles.

Project description:Streptococcus thermophilus plays important roles in the dairy industry and is widely used as a dairy starter in the production of fermented dairy products. The genomes of S. thermophilus strains CS5, CS9, CS18, and CS20 from fermented milk in China were sequenced and used for biodiversity analysis. In the present study, the phylogenetic analysis of all 34 S. thermophilus genomes publicly available including these four strains reveals that the phylogenetic reconstruction does not match geographic distribution as strains isolated from the same continent are not even clustered on the nearby branches. The core and variable genes were also identified, which vary among strains from 0 to 202. CS9 strain contained 127 unique genes from a variety of distantly related species. It was speculated that CS9 had undergone horizontal gene transfer (HGT) during the long evolutionary process. The safety evaluation of these four strains indicated that none of them contains antibiotic resistance genes and that they are all sensitive to multiple antibiotics. In addition, the strains do not contain any pathogenic virulence factors or plasmids and thus can be considered safe. Furthermore, these strains were investigated in terms of their technological properties including milk acidification, exopolysaccharide (EPS) and ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production, and in vitro survival capacity in the gastrointestinal tract. CS9 possesses a special eps gene cluster containing significant traces of HGT, while the eps gene clusters of CS5, CS18, and CS20 are almost the same. The monosaccharide compositional analysis indicated that crude EPS-CS5, EPS-CS9, EPS-CS18, and EPS-CS20 contain similar monosaccharide compositions with different ratios. Furthermore, CS9 was one of a few GABA-producing strains that could ferment glutamate to produce GABA, which is beneficial for improving the acid tolerance of the strain. CS18 has the most potential for the production of fermented food among these four strains because of its fast growth rate, rapid acidifying capacity, and stronger acid and bile salt resistance capacity. This study focused on the genome analysis of the four new S. thermophilus strains to investigate the diversity of strains and provides a reference for selecting excellent strains by use of the genome data.
