Project description:Microbial and biochemical changes in the brine during the spontaneous fermentation of Gordal, Hojiblanca and Manzanilla olive cultivars processed according to the natural style were monitored. The microbial composition was assessed through a metagenomic study. Sugars, ethanol, glycerol, organic acids and phenolic compounds were quantified by standard methods. In addition, the volatile profiles, contents of phenolic compounds in the olives and quality parameters of the final products were compared. Fermentation in Gordal brines was conducted by lactic acid bacteria (mainly Lactobacillus and Pediococcus) and yeasts (mainly Candida boidinii, Candida tropicalis and Wickerhamomyces anomalus). In Hojiblanca and Manzanilla brines, halophilic Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., Halomonas, Allidiomarina and Marinobacter) along with yeasts (mainly, Saccharomyces) were responsible for the fermentation. Higher acidity and lower pH values were reached in Gordal brines compared to Hojiblanca and Manzanilla. After 30 days of fermentation, no sugars were detected in Gordal brine, but residual amounts were found in the brines from Hojiblanca (<0.2 g/L glucose) and Manzanilla (2.9 g/L glucose and 0.2 g/L fructose). Lactic acid was the main acid product in Gordal fermentation, whereas citric acid was the predominant organic acid in the Hojiblanca and Manzanilla brines. Manzanilla brine samples showed a greater concentration of phenolic compounds than Hojiblanca and Gordal brines. After a 6-month fermentation, Gordal olives were superior compared to the Hojiblanca and Manzanilla varieties regarding product safety (lower final pH and absence of Enterobacteriaceae), content of volatile compounds (richer aroma), content of bitter phenolics (lower content of oleuropein, which resulted in less perceived bitterness) and color parameters (more yellow and lighter color, indicating a higher visual appraisal). The results of the present study will contribute to a better understanding of each fermentation process and could help to promote natural-style elaborations using the above-mentioned olive cultivars.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to assess the malodorous spoilages of Spanish-style green table olives through microbial and metabolite composition using current measuring techniques (e.g., high-throughput DNA sequencing, headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry). Under different alkaline and washing conditions, the spoilage fermentations were reproduced with Gordal and Manzanilla olive cultivars using a low salt concentration (71 g L-1 NaCl) in the initial brine. The degradation of lactic acid and significant increases in volatile fatty acids and phenols were found in all the spoiled samples in comparison with the unspoiled control samples. According to high-throughput DNA sequencing, Cardiobacteriaceae and Ruminococcus were the dominant bacteria in the spoiled samples. PLS regression and Pearson's correlation coefficient analyses revealed positive and negative correlations among microbial communities, metabolites, and sensory spoilage descriptors. Notably, the "zapatera" descriptor was significantly associated with Propionibacterium, which was positively correlated with acetic acid, propionic acid, succinic acid, and methyl propanoate; while the "butyric" descriptor exhibited a significant positive relationship with the genus Ruminococcus, which gave an almost significant correlation with propionic and butyric acids.

Project description:This article contains processed data related to the research published in "Fermentation in nutrient salt mixtures affects green Spanish-style Manzanilla table olives" [1]. It displays information on the salt substitution by other nutrient salts (potassium chloride and calcium chloride) during fermentation of green Spanish-style Manzanilla table olives to produce healthier products. Particularly, it studies the relationship between the different colour parameters (L*, a*, b* and C i), firmness, and sensory attributes (saltiness, bitterness, hardness, and fibrousness), and the composition of the initial brine in NaCl, KCl, and CaCl2. The composition of the brines affected the characteristics of the product. In general, the higher was the proportion of CaCl2 in the initial brines the better was the colour. Also, the presence of this salt mitigated the saltiness perception but increment those of bitterness, hardness, fibrousness, and crunchiness. Besides, most of the sensory attribute scores could successfully be predicted as a function of the Na, K, and Ca concentrations in the fermented olive flesh. The work allows the production of table olives with specific characteristics and predetermined mineral nutrient composition.

Project description:Microbial community and volatilome changes in brines along the spontaneous fermentation of Spanish-style and Natural-style green table olives (Manzanilla cultivar)

Project description:This work presents the sensory characterization by consumers of traditionally and potentially probiotic green Spanish-style table olives. To this aim, green Manzanilla olives from the same lot were debittered, washed, and brined in the same way; then, one sub-lot was allowed fermenting spontaneously while another one was inoculated with a putative probiotic bacterium (Lactobacillus pentosus TOMC-LAB2). After fermentation, the olives from both sub-lots were packed with fresh brine to reach 5.5 g/100 mL NaCl and 0.6 g lactic acid/100 mL in the equilibrium. The stabilized olives were then subjected to sensory evaluation by 200 consumers, and the results were analyzed by ANOVA and multivariate statistical techniques. In a first approach, consumers perceived the spontaneously fermented olives as similar to the potentially probiotic product. However, a biplot based on Canonical Variate Analysis (CVA) showed differences between them in the Salty and Overall score. When data from the consumer test were assessed by PLS analysis, regardless of the fermentation system, Overall score, and Buying predisposition were significantly driven by Appearance, Odor, Salty (negatively), Hardness, and Crispness.

Project description:The strictly monophagous olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae, represents the major pest of olive orchards worldwide. It has the unique ability to hydrolyze olive proteins as well as to overcome olive defenses, especially the high levels of phenolic compounds present in the green olive mesocarp. In this study, we aimed to identify specific genes potentially implicated in overcoming green olive defense and the utilization of the flesh, by examining larval responses to green olives on the transcript level. Focusing on the up-regulated gene set, we identified two putative serine proteases and one putative UDP-glycosyltransferase possibly associated with these traits. Serine proteases could be involved in the digestion of dietary proteins but also could represent a mechanism to overcome the effect of trypsin inhibitors induced by the olive fruit upon attack. UDP-glycosyltransferase may be implicated in the sequestration and/ or direct detoxification of phenolic compounds highly present in green olives.

Project description:Reformulation of products fermented in brine is a challenging area of research. Continuing the efforts toward the establishment of table olives as a healthy food for all population groups, this study aimed at examining whether olive oil flavored with essential oils can be used as a preservation means for reduced salt Spanish style green table olives (cv. Chalkidiki). Response surface methodology was applied to organize experimentation and assess data. As independent factors, concentrations of the essential oils used (oregano, lemon balm and bay laurel) and time of storage under vacuum were set. Microbiological parameters (pathogens and fermentation-related microbes), color and firmness attributes were used as responses. Models indicated that each essential oil exerted a preservative role to maintain microbiological quality of reduced salt table olives. Concurrently, appearance attributes of the latter were retained at desirable values. Oregano essential oil had a profound role against pathogens. Lemon balm and bay laurel essential oils were found to be important for yeast population control. The results are promising toward the use of flavored olive oil as a preservation means for tailor-made reduced salt table olives, a practice that may enhance local industry innovative activity in a practical and effective way.

Project description:Here, we report the genome sequences of six Lactobacillus pentosus strains isolated from traditional noninoculated Spanish-style green table olive brines. The total genome sizes varied between 3.77 and 4.039 Mbp. These genome sequences will assist in revealing the genes responsible for both technological and probiotic properties of these strains.
