Rice wine is a traditional alcoholic beverage derived from fermented glutinous rice or broken rice. The method is separated into two steps: first, the rice is cooked and liquefied/saccharified by molds and enzymes, followed by fermentation. The study examined how Aspergillus oryzae (0.1 - 0.2%) and α-amylase (0.01 - 0.04%) affect starch liquefaction and saccharification, as well as how Saccharomyces bayanus concentration (0.02 - 0.05%) and total soluble solids content (22 - 26%) impact rice wine fermentation. To improve process prediction and optimization, an artificial neural network integrated with a genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) was applied to model the nonlinear relationships between process variables and fermentation performance. The optimization approach utilizing a machine learning-based model demonstrated better prediction ability. Compared with conventional regression approaches, the ANN-GA model provided improved predictive accuracy and enabled the identification of optimal processing conditions for both saccharification and fermentation stages. The optimum content of Aspergillus oryzae and α-amylase was 0.181% and 0.036%, respectively, resulting in high starch saccharification efficiency with a total soluble solids content of 27.2<sup>o</sup>Brix. The volume of sugar solution achieved was 34.01 mL (from 50 g rice, yield 68.02%). In addition, using the optimal content of Saccharomyces bayanus of 0.043% and fermenting in an environment with high soluble solids content of 24.88<sup>o</sup>Brix produced wine with high ethanol and ester content, 12.19% by volume and 0.93 g/L, respectively. The methanol content of the fermented product under these optimal conditions was lower (49.8 mg/L). These findings demonstrate that the integration of machine-learning-based optimization can effectively enhance fermentation efficiency while maintaining product safety. Overall, the optimized saccharification and fermentation parameters provide a viable approach for producing rice wine with higher quality and safety assurances for this traditional product.

Fermented plant-based products were gathered from various regions in Thailand and categorized into 10 types of traditional commercial vegetables. Different vegetable materials and natural fermentation methods influence the diverse physical, chemical, nutritional, and functional attributes of the products. All the traditionally fermented Thai vegetable samples collected showed physicochemical properties associated with the fermentation process, contributing to the nutritional and functional quality of the final products. Achieving consistent research results is challenging due to the intricate nature of food matrices and biochemical processes during fermentation. The roles of microorganisms, especially probiotics, are crucial in delivering health benefits through fermented foods. Traditionally fermented Thai vegetable foods contain high levels of total soluble solids, titratable acidity, and salinity in pickled shallot and ginger as a result of the natural fermentation process and the ingredients used. The research findings were confirmed using a hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA)-derived dendrogram pattern. The nutritional compositions, total phenolic contents, and antioxidant activities varied among the different types of vegetables. The correlations among lipid, protein, fiber, total soluble solid (TSSs), total titratable acidity (TTA), and salinity as potential biomarkers in fermented vegetable products were examined. The results suggest that traditionally fermented Thai vegetable products significantly impacted food research by enhancing the quality and preserving the authenticity of traditionally fermented Thai vegetables.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe YM-19 and Acetobacter pasteurianus EM2-03 were isolated and identified from the traditional herbal vinegar fermentation process using cultural and molecular techniques. The two microorganisms were prepared to inoculum for an experimental herbal vinegar fermentation, which is called “Loog Plaag Mea.” The first starter culture was 10% v/v S. pombe YM1-19. Fermentation was carried out under anaerobic conditions at 30°C for 4 days. The alcohol content was 6.18±0.13% v/v and the pH value was 3.52±0.02 on day 4 of the fermentation period. Subsequently, 10% v/v A. pasteurianus EM2-03 was added to the fermentation process under aerobic conditions at 30°C for 22 days. The final herbal vinegar product contained 4.91±0.15% v/v acetic acid, and a pH value of 3.04±0.04. Its total phenolic content and IC<inf>50</inf> value of DPPH radical scavenging were 1,908.38±38.75 µgGAE/mL and 0.017±0.001 µL/mL, respectively. The experimental fermented herbal vinegar had physicochemical properties that very similar to traditional vinegar. As a result, the isolated microorganisms can be used to improve product consistency and quality control in the mass production of vinegar.

Triphala byproduct from hot-water extraction (TPB), which was a traditional process, was valorized by solid state fermentation in this research. Since the leftovers from the extraction contain high rutin and tannin contents, they were hydrolysable to isoquercitin and gallic acid, which were their monomers, respectively. Aspergillus niger, a producer of α-L-rhamnosidase and β-glucosidase, was cultured on the TPB to produce both isoquercitin and gallic acid, which were powerful antioxidants used in medical applications. The solid-state fermentation (SSF) was conducted in the three-layered packed-bed bioreactor aerated with humid air at different rates (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 L/L/min or vvm). The highest isoquercitin and gallic acid production rates were found in the SSF, with 0.1 vvm at 1.14/h and 0.3 vvm at 3.12/h, respectively. The interaction of aeration rate and fermentation time significantly affected the fungal growth and the production of gallic acid, while the isoquercitin production was affected only by the fermentation time. Moreover, the differences of their production yields in different positions of bed along the height of bioreactor found to be useful to design the harvesting period of the fermentation products including isoquercitin or gallic acid or simultaneous isoquercitin and gallic acid. The results clearly showed that aeration, harvesting time, and position of the bioreactor were crucial in designing the process for isoquercitin, gallic acid, or both.

Being the second-largest country in the production of palm oil, Malaysia has a massive amount of palm kernel expeller (PKE) leftover. For that purpose, black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are thus employed in this study to valorize the PKE waste. More specifically, this work elucidated the effects of the pre-fermentation of PKE via different amounts of Rhizopus oligosporus to enhance PKE palatability for the feeding of BSFL. The results showed that fermentation successfully enriched the raw PKE and thus contributed to the better growth of BSFL. BSFL grew to be 34% heavier at the optimum inoculum volume of 0.5 mL/10 g dry weight of PKE as compared to the control. Meanwhile, excessive fungal inoculum induced competition between BSFL and R. oligosporus, resulting in a reduction in BSFL weight. Under optimum feeding conditions, BSFL also registered the highest lipid yield (24.7%) and protein yield (44.5%). The biodiesel derived from BSFL lipid had also shown good compliance with the European biodiesel standard EN 14214. The high saturated fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) content (C12:0, C14:0, C16:0) in derived biodiesel made it highly oxidatively stable. Lastly, the superior degradation rate of PKE executed by BSFL further underpinned the sustainable conversion process in attaining valuable larval bioproducts.

Soybean meal is a by-product from soybean oil manufacturing. It contained, on the mass basis, crude fiber (6.3%) and protein (47.6%) after oil extraction. The aim of study was to investigate the cultivation of isolated Clostridium sp. G10 using soybean meal hydrolysate as a N-and C-source in fermentation medium. Soybean meal hydrolyzed with 0.02 to 0.1 M of HCl and H2SO4 and was heated at 121 °C, 15 psi for 10-30 min. The result showed that hydrolyzing soybean with 0.1 M HCl and 20-min heating period were the optimal conditions to obtain soluble protein (24.45 ±2.21 g/L) and reducing sugar (13.12 ±1.09 g/L). To study the effect of N-and C-sources replacement in T6 medium, soybean meal hydrolysate was utilized to replace yeast extract and tryptone resulting in 8 g/L soluble protein and used as a C-source with the addition of glucose with 50 g/L reducing sugar equivalent. The butanol concentration (10.80 ±0.44 g/L) was slightly lowered than that of control T6 medium (12.15 ±0.07 g/L). These results demonstrated that Clostridium sp. was able to uptake the N-and C-sources contained in the hydrolyzed soybean meal. However, a C-source alternative is required to mitigate the cost of raw materials.

BACKGROUND: The poultry industry is one of the fastest growing sectors, and it generates considerable quantities of chicken gizzards (CG) every day. However, due to their hard texture and high microbial load, and due to cultural beliefs, they are not preferred by consumers. Chicken gizzards are a substantial source of proteins, iron, and other nutrients, which can be used effectively to produce nutraceuticals, rich in peptides (antioxidants and antibacterial), bio-iron, essential free amino acids, and fatty acids vital for human health. RESULTS: Lactic acid fermentation of CG by Pediococcus acidilactici ATTC 8042 increased the antioxidant activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiaziline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) by up to 26 times compared with unfermented CG (P < 0.05). The amount of hydrolysis and solvents (ethanol and water) used for extracting protein hydrolysates significantly affected the antioxidant properties. Moreover, fermented CG showed a negligible reduction in bio-iron (2–3%) compared with heat-processed CG (85 °C for 15 min), in which bio-iron was reduced by up to 20.3% (P < 0.05). The presence of unsaturated fatty acids such as C20:4 and C22:4 n-6 indicated a low level of lipid oxidation. CONCLUSION: Fermented CG, with its reasonably high antioxidant and antibacterial activity, together with a substantial amount of bio-iron and other nutritional components can serve as a functional food or feed additive to reduce oxidative stress and to treat iron deficiency. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.
