Tepache是来自墨西哥的本地饮料,通常用菠萝壳精心制作,蔗糖是自然发酵的。有益的健康影响已归因于其消费;然而,这种饮料的整个生态系统,包括化学品(微生物生长的基质,益生元,等)和微生物群(益生菌),和潜在的功能尚未研究。在这项工作中,对tepache饮料的理化特性进行了分析,以及其微生物群落结构和预测代谢功能进行了研究。通过酶和GC-MS方法进行化学表征。通过IlluminaMiSeq2×300使用16SrRNA和ITS代谢编码鉴定了细菌和真菌群落。通过计算机模拟工具预测代谢潜力。这项研究表明,发酵72小时后,tepache理化特性转变为9.5白利糖度和酸性pH。乙醇的含量,乙酸和L-乳酸从0.83±0.02增加到3.39±0.18g/L,从0.38±0.04到0.54±0.04g/L和从1.42±0.75到8.77±0.34g/L,分别。同时,总糖从123.43±2.01降至84.70±2.34g/L。微生物多样性分析表明,发酵结束时细菌群落丰富度较高,真菌均匀度增加。在发酵72小时时,微生物群落以乳酸菌为主,明串珠菌,醋杆菌和乳球菌属细菌。至于真菌群落,酵母菌,赤霉素,酵母菌,念珠菌,Meyerozyma,Talaromyces,发现Epicoccum和Kabatiella最丰富。预测的功能概况证明,发酵0h时的真菌群落与发酵72h时的细菌群落之间存在密切的关系。代谢潜力表明,糖酵解和柠檬酸循环代谢在真菌群落中占主导地位,而糖酵解,果糖和三羧酸代谢对细菌核心更具代表性。Tepache发酵主要发生在两个时间序列上。首先,以乳酸菌和酵母为主的乳酸和乙醇发酵,然后是产乙酸细菌的增加。这项研究首次揭示了物理化学,tepache发酵过程中涉及的微生物变化和预测功能。这些发现有助于了解重要的微生物来源,并且对未来的制造过程至关重要。此外,这项工作可以帮助分析消费者凭经验归因于它的健康益处。
Tepache is a native beverage from Mexico, which is usually elaborated with pineapple shells, brown cane sugar and is fermented naturally. Beneficial health effects have been attributed to its consumption; however, the total ecosystem of this beverage including chemicals (substrates for microbial growth, prebiotics, etc) and microbiota (probiotics), and potential functionality had not been studied. In this work, the analysis of the tepache beverage for its physicochemical characteristics, as well as its structure of microbial communities and the predictive metabolic functionalities was carried out. Chemical characterization was performed via enzymatic and GC-MS methods. The bacterial and fungal communities were identified by using 16S rRNA and ITS metabarcoding through Illumina MiSeq 2 × 300. The metabolic potential was predicted by in silico tools. This research showed that after 72 h of fermentation, the tepache physicochemical characteristics shifted to 9.5 Brix degrees and acidic pH. The content of ethanol, acetic and L-lactic acid increased significantly from 0.83 ± 0.02 to 3.39 ± 0.18 g/L, from 0.38 ± 0.04 to 0.54 ± 0.04 g/L and from 1.42 ± 0.75 to 8.77 ± 0.34 g/L, respectively. While, the total sugars was decreased from 123.43 ± 2.01 to 84.70 ± 2.34 g/L. The microbial diversity analysis showed a higher richness of bacterial communities and increased fungal evenness at the end of fermentation. At 72 h of fermentation the microbial community was dominated by Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Acetobacter and Lactococcus bacterial genera. As for the fungal community, Saccharomyces, Gibberella, Zygosaccharomyces, Candida, Meyerozyma, Talaromyces, Epicoccum and Kabatiella were found to be in most abundance. The predicted functionality profile evidenced a close-fitting relationship between fungal communities at 0 h with the bacterial communities at 72 h of fermentation. The metabolic potential showed that glycolysis and citrate cycle metabolism were predominant for fungal community, while glycolysis, fructose and tricarboxylic acid metabolism were more representative for the bacterial core. Tepache fermentation mainly occurred at two temporal successions. First, a lactic acid and ethanol fermentation dominated by lactic acid bacteria and yeast, and then an increase in acetogenic bacteria. This study revealed for the first time the physicochemical, microbiological changes and predictive functionality that are involved during tepache fermentation. These findings contributed to the knowledge of important microbial sources and could be essential to future efforts in manufacturing process. In addition, this work could help to analyze the health benefits that are empirically attributed to it by consumers.
