Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The purpose of this special issue is to promote knowledge and research results on the possibility of using probiotic microorganisms and their metabolites in food production processes. The scope of this special issue includes the design of new starter cultures for food fermentation and the search for new microorganisms that have beneficial health and technological properties. It is commonly recognized that probiotics are mainly strains of selected lactic acid bacteria and yeast. However, there are voices in favor of including new microorganisms in the probiotic or postbiotic category, which show a beneficial propetires. Therefore, it is pleasure to invite you to publish original research papers and reviews on topics related to:

  1. Probiotic starter cultures in food fermentation;
  2. Lactic acid bacteria with beneficial properties;
  3. Acetic acid bacteria with beneficial properties;
  4. Postbiotics as the future of food biopreservation;
  5. Next-generation probiotic microorganisms.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dr. Katarzyna Neffe-Skocińska
