Bacteria in Food Production* Cheeses Parmesan, Romano Cheddar, Colby, Edam, Gouda, Swiss Brie, Cambembert, Limburger Cottage Cheese Lactobacillus bulgaricus Streptococcus lactis S. cremoris S. Thermophilus Streptococcus lactis S. cremoris S. durans S. thermophiles Lactobacillus helveticus Propionibacterium shermanii Streptococcus lactus S. cremoris Brevibacterium linens Streptococcus lactis Leuconostic citrovorum fermentation fermentation fermentation fermentation Other Foods & Drinks Acidophilis Milk Butter Sour Cream Buttermilk Yogurt Cured Meats & Sausages Pickles Sourdough Bread Green Olives Soy Sauce Sauerkraut Lactobacillus acidophilus Streptococcus diacetilactis Leuconostoc cremoris Streptococcus diacetilactis S. Lactis Leuconostic cremoris Lactobacillus bulgaricus Streptococcus cremoris Leuconostoc citrovorum L. dextranicum Lactobacillus bulgaricus Streptococcus thermophilus Pedicoccus cerevisiae Micrococcus spp. Lacatobacillus plantarum Pedicoccus cerevisiae Streptococcus exiguous Lactobacillus sanfrancisco Leuconostoc mesenteroides Lactobacillus plantarum Pectococcus halophilus Lactobacillus delbrueckii Leuconostoc Mesenteroides L. plantarum Acetobacter aceti Vinegar Erwinia dissolvens Coffee Geotrichum spp. Cocoa Spirulina Protein Supplement *some products above also require additional fungal species Lactic acid fermentation Lactic acid fermentation Lactic acid fermentation Lactic acid fermentation Lactic acid fermentation Mixed acid fermentation Mixed acid fermentation fermentation fermentation to produce acids and esters fermentation converts alcohol to acetic acid fermentation to loosen berry skins before roasting fermentation to remove cocoa beans from pulp covering pod A blue green bacterium used directly as food supplement Pharmaceutical Products from Bacteria* Product streptokinase hyaluronidase asparaginase glucose oxidase galactose oxidase miscellaneous antibiotics genetically engineered bacteria Microorganism Streptococcus Staphylococcus E. coli & Erwinia (several species) (several species) many species many species Uses for Product dissolves clots; prevents heart attacks facilitates injections under skin used to treat some cases of leukemia used to measure glucose levels in urine used to diagnose galactosemia in children eg. amphomycin, erythromycin, used to treat certain infections Used to make human insulin, human growth hormone, somatostatin, human interferon, etc Industrial Chemicals & Products from Bacteria* Product Microorganism amylases proteases Bacillus rennet (several species) Bacillus bacterial mixture bacterial mixture amino acids, vitamins probiotics genetically engineered bacteria Mining of precious metals Manganese Nodules bacterial mixture Recover palladium Bioremediation Renewable energy several species Mixture of species many species several species many species many species many species several bacteral Fuel Cells many bacteria Sewage Treatment Bacillus thurigiensis “natural” pesticide *some products above also require additional fungal species Last revised: 2012.8 Uses for Product Bread, beer, whiskey, textile fibers, Clarifying beer, whiskey, leather, baking bread and crackers; used in toothpaste to reduce plaque; some laundry detergents to improve cleaning prepares curd for cheese making Used to tan leather Linen processing Millions of pounds of specific amino acids and vitamins are extracted from bacterial cultures Used to enhance or replenish intestinal bacterial flora for better health Used in numerous applications in food and industry Used to extract and concentrate metals from low grade ores and slag; eg copper, gold Fist sized clumps of mineral deposits formed by bacteria in the deep ocean that concentrate iron, manganese, copper, snickel, cobalt, etc Bacteria are being used to recover palladium from spent catalytic converters Remove explosives, petroleum, creosote, etc from contaminated soils and waters Generate methane from decomposing organics in landfills, dung and the guts of herbiores than can be harvested for energy production Bacteria can break down waste organics to make hydrogen gas to power fuel cells Bacteria are used to produce “activated sludge” to enhance breakdown of sewage and organic wastes Infects many species of pest insects and caterpillars to kill them with much less environmental damage
