| Summary: | A total of 15 Debaryomyces hansenii strains from different food origins were genetically characterized and tested on a culture medium resembling the composition of fermented sausages but different concentrations of nitrifying preservatives. Genetic typing of the D. hansenii strains revealed two levels of discrimination: isolation source or strain specific. Different abilities to proliferate on culture media containing different concentrations of nitrate and nitrite, as sole nitrogen sources and in the presence of amino acids, were observed within D. hansenii strains. Overall metabolism of amino acids and generation of aroma compounds were related to the strain origin of isolation. The best producers of branched aldehydes and ethyl ester compounds were strains isolated from pork sausages. Strains from cheese and llama sausages were good producers of ester compounds and branched alcohols, while vegetable strains produced mainly acid compounds. Nitrate and nitrite reduction affected in different ways the production of volatiles by D. hansenii. |
