Course Goal / Objective

Teaching and giving information about lactic acid bacteria starter cultures, probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics as well as applying the knowledge to food industry.

Course Content

A laboratory course containing microbiological methods to cultivate, enumerate and isolate Lactococcus, Streptococcus and Lactobacillus. Identification of LAB starter, probiotic strains isolated from various fermented foods. Information about probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus and bifidobacteria). Information about prebiotic and postbiotic. Interactions among lactic acid starter and probiotic bacteria. Analysis of stress tolerance of a model. Strain specific identification by PCR and gel-electrophoresis.
