[0040] Table 1 and Table 3 show several strains used in the study. Several of these strains were obtained from the Danisco collection of strains and phages (DGCC: Danisco Global Culture Collection). Preparation of cultures of these strains was accomplished according to standard microbiological methods.

[0044] CNCM I-3617 Strain Belongs to a New Genetic Cluster

[0045] Recent determination of the complete chromosomal sequences of two S. thermophilus strains, CNRZ1066 and LMG18311, revealed a high level of conservation of genetic content and gene organization in this species (Bolotin et al., 2004). One of the rare regions presenting the main genetic differences between these two strains corresponds to the eps locus encoding genes involved in the biosynthesis of exopolysaccharides. Furthermore, since several eps sequences have been identified for various S. ther...

Abstract

The invention relates to a genetic cluster of strains of Streptococcus thermophilus, which have a lysotype distinct from that of the strains currently used. Within this cluster novel acidifying and lexturizing strains have been identified.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a genetic cluster of S. thermophilus strains with appropriate acidifying and texturizing properties for dairy fermentation. Background technique [0002] Phages are viruses that attack bacteria. When a virus attacks, a phage infects a bacterial culture and multiplies, ultimately killing the culture. These bacteriophages have a very significant technological impact on the milk processing industry (production of cheese, yoghurt and fermented milk), since they can lead to a complete cessation of fermentation and thus prevent the production of derivative products of these milks. [0003] One way to combat the problem of infection of fermentations caused by bacteriophages is to use strains with an appropriate spectrum of susceptibility to bacteriophages. In particular, producers of fermented milks have developed strategies to combat phages by constructing ferments consisting of several strains with different lysotypes and ...
