NEW POTENTIALLY ANTIHYPERTENSIVE PEPTIDES LIBERATED IN MILK DURING FERMENTATION WITH SELECTED LACTIC ACID BACTERIA AND KOMBUCHA CULTURES
By Ebrahim Elkhtab, Mohamed El-Alfy, Mohamed Shenana, Abdelaty Mohamed, Ahmed E Yousef
Compounds with the ability to inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) are used medically to treat human hypertension. The presence of such compounds naturally in food is potentially useful for treating the disease state. The goal of this study was to screen lactic acid bacteria, including ...

NITROGEN-FIXING AND CELLULOSE-PRODUCING GLUCONACETOBACTER KOMBUCHAE SP. NOV., ISOLATED FROM KOMBUCHA TEA
By Debasree Dutta, Ratan Gachhui
A few members of the family Acetobacteraceae are cellulose-producers, while only six members fix nitrogen. Bacterial strain RG3T, isolated from Kombucha tea, displays both of these characteristics. A high bootstrap value in the 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analysis supported the ...
