Recent advances in multi-omics technologies have shifted the understanding of EO-microbe interactions from descriptive observations to mechanistic, systems-level insights. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses reveal coordinated cellular responses, including stress adaptation, efflux activation, and metabolic reprogramming, providing a foundation for rational optimization of EO-based preservation strategies.

This communication synthesizes emerging evidence for a novel ecological strategy whereby L. monocytogenes functions as a secondary colonizer, exploiting central voids created during Gram-negative bacterial biofilm dispersal. We propose the \"secondary colonizer hypothesis\" - that L. monocytogenes utilizes a sophisticated temporal succession strategy, colonizing biofilm voids characterized by steep oxygen gradients and phosphatidylethanolamine-rich debris from dispersed primary colonizers. This strategy employs specialized metabolic pathways including cobalamin-dependent catabolism of ethanolamine, propylene glycol, and glycerol while simultaneously utilizing ferric iron reduction for respiration. The metabolic coupling allows each bacterial cell to accumulate iron via ferritin-like protein storage, creating competitive advantages through localized limitation. Recent evidence identifies Veillonella as a key bridging species that may facilitate this ecological succession through metabolic complementarity. Notably, while L. monocytogenes co-occurs with Gram-positive bacteria, its metabolic specialization for ethanolamine and iron scavenging suggests a preferential adaptation to the nutrient-dense voids of dispersed Gram-negative biofilms.

According to the results, anisakiasis is the most serious nematode disease humans acquire from marine fish, chiefly due to Anisakis simplex larvae and, to a lesser degree, Pseudoterranova decipiens. Several analytical methods are employed for the detection of marine nematodes in seafood, each characterized by its own set of advantages and drawbacks. While traditional visual and digestion-based methods are still employed, newer techniques like hyperspectral imaging, and molecular analysis are advancing the field.

Key driving factors are lactose intolerance and the perception that plant-based foods are more sustainable than dairy alternatives. When preparing plant-based yoghurt analogs, often conventional yoghurt cultures are used, despite the fact that plant-based substrates differ significantly from milk. Enterococci are known for their broad carbohydrate utilization repertoire, and many strains are considered safe and are used as probiotics. In this study, we explored the potential of enterococci for fermenting soymilk. Out of four strains tested, <em>Enterococcus faecium</em> BT0194, <em>Enterococcus lactis</em> B0167_2, <em>E. lactis</em> BT0173_2, and <em>E. lactis</em> CS4674, three strains acidified plain soymilk to a pH below 4.7 using an initial inoculum of 10<sup>6</sup> cells/ml (standard inoculum when preparing yoghurt). <em>Enterococcus</em> is renowned for producing bacteriocins; all strains harbored multiple bacteriocin genes. Thus, we investigated whether the four strains could confer a bioprotective effect, and indeed, a strong antimicrobial effect was observed against the tested pathogens. Three strains demonstrated α-galactosidase activity, which is necessary for degrading the indigestible and flatulence−inducing α-galactosides raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose, which are undesirable in soymilk. Additionally, all tested strains had the ability to degrade phytic acid, an unwanted antinutrient found in many plant-based foods, including soymilk. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that the <em>Enterococcus</em> strains tested exhibit considerable potential for use in plant-based fermentations, due to efficient acidification capacity and a capacity to degrade phytic acid in soymilk.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15903,"journal":{"name":"Journal of food protection","volume":"89 4","pages":"Article 100715"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146137347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
