Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition suitable for preparing a dairy product comprising at least one starter culture and a Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain capable of imparting onto the dairy product an enhanced creamy flavor without affecting the rheology negatively, the fermentation time or the post-acidification of the dairy product. The present invention further relates to processes for preparing a dairy product, such as a low-fat yogurt or cheese, which has a high content of diacetyl. A Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain useful for preparing such dairy product is also part of the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a silage inoculant consisting essentially of a) at least one obligatory heterofermentative lactic acid bacterial species or strain and b) at least one homofermentative bacterial species or strain which (i) does not reduce growth of a), and (ii) reduces pH fast without producing an excess amount of lactic acid. Further, the invention relates to a method for producing a fermented feed product, said method comprising inoculating a plant material with the silage inoculant according to the invention. It has surprisingly been found that the silage inoculant is effective even if the silage has only been incubated for a period of up to 2 or up to 4 days.

Abstract: It has unexpectedly been found that a low alcohol or alcohol-free beverage, with a flavor profile very close to a beer of at least 4% (vol/vol) alcohol, can be produced by using Pichia kluyveri yeast strains. In particular, Pichia kluyveri yeast strains only use the glucose in the wort, and have the ability of converting this substrate into a high concentration of specific flavor compounds, which are normally produced by Saccharomyces ssp. yeast strains used for the brewing of beer. In this way the Pichia kluyveri yeast strains can be used to produce either a low alcohol or alcohol-free beverage, depending on the glucose levels in the wort. The main flavor compounds produced by Pichia kluyveri in the fermentation of wort are isoamyl acetate, isoamyl alcohol, ethyl butyrate, ethyl hexanoate and ethyl octanoate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a Bacillus subtilis strain deposited as DSM 32685 and mutant strains thereof which are susceptible to relevant antibiotics, have inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, E. coli and Salmonella enterica and have the ability to facilitate degradation of non-starch polysaccharides and thereby increase the amount of available oligosaccharides (sugar) in animal feed.
The invention further relates to a composition comprising at least one Bacillus subtilis strain of the invention and optionally further bacteria, and/or one or more types of yeast.
The composition may be a probiotic, Direct Fed Microbial (DFM), a premix, an animal feed additive, or an animal feed such as complete feed, e.g. a canine complete feed. The composition can be used in the prevention, reduction or control of a bacterial colonization or infection or for increasing digestibility of an animal feed, in particular a feed for a monogastric animal, such as feed for a companion animal, e.g. a domestic dog or cat.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for producing a fermented milk product comprising (i) at least one Streptococcus thermophilus (St) strain, wherein the St strain is galactose-fermenting, wherein the strain carries a mutation in the DNA sequence of the glcK gene encoding a glucokinase protein, wherein the mutation inactivates the glucokinase protein or has a negative effect on expression of the gene, and (ii) at least one Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (Lb) strain, wherein the Lb strain is lactose-deficient and capable of metabolizing a non-lactose carbohydrate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to Bifidobacterium breve deposited as DSM 32356 and compositions comprising said strain. The composition may further comprise at least one other bacterial strain and/or at least one compound which may be an NSAID such as acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). In a presently preferred embodiment the invention relates to Bifidobacterium breve deposited as DSM 32356 for use in the support of the defense against intestinal tissue damage such as intestinal mucosal breaks or lesions e.g. in connection with NSAID administration such as in connection with administration of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). The invention further provides a method of supporting the defense against intestinal tissue damage, the method comprising administering the Bifidobacterium breve strain deposited as DSM 32356 to a subject in need thereof, e.g. to a subject in need of NSAID treatment.
