Most bacteria from craft goat's cheese come from lactic acid and could be beneficial for health
... According to the study carried out at the UGR , the most abundant species found in such craft cheese are Lactobacillus paracasei, Lb. plantarum and lactococcus lactis. The latter is one of the species most commonly found in yoghurt. ...Lactococcus Strain may Offer End to Food Allergies

...rs synthesized nisin simply in a test tube by using a single cyclase enzyme to re-create the process that normally occurs in a strain of the bacterium lactococcus lactis found naturally in milk.

... or limits E. coli's ability to turn glucose into succinate. Bennett and San activated a second pathway and stimulated production by adding genes from lactococcus bacteria and sorghum. Each genetic pathway metabolizes glucose and produces succinate via dissimilar chemical reactions. That means the two don't c...
