Description
34~3 . .
The invention relates to a method for preparing foodstuffs ~mder the action of micro-or~ani.sms in which a viable culture of micro-organisms~
capable of prop~gating, is inoeulated into the foodstuff to be prepared and suitable living conditions for the said micro-organisms are provided and maintained, for ~he duration of the effect sought, by the addition of nutrients~ and/or by adjusting the temperature, the humidity and/or the pH value, and to a preparation for protecting the said micro-organisms against attack by bacteriophages~
The industrial preparation of foodstuffs, by attenuation~ ease-ation, and fermentation, for example, is carried out wi~h the co-operation of micro-organisms, namely bacteria, yeasts, fungi or algaeO In the cul-tures where they are kept in readiness, and also while they are acting upon the foodstuf.fs, these micro-organisms are subject to attack by bacter-iophages and viruses, which may interfere with the reaction processes which the micro-organisms produce.
It is the purpose of ~he present invention to eliminate this interference~
The invention is characteri~ed in that the micro-organisms are protected against attack by bacteriophages and viruses by the addition, intermi~ing, and reaction of terpene obtainable from spice plants the amount of terpelle uscd being between 1 and 1000 mg of terpene to 10 kg of food-stuff.
The terpenes have a virucidal action (i.e. a virus-destroying action) in a concentration which is lower by one or more powers of ten than the concentratioll at which they have a to.~ic effect upon living cells~ This ~j , .
- ' ~ ~ , ' :. ' ' , - ~
'. . : ~ ', : ~'' : '' wide gap provides a useful dosage range within which the desired virucidal action may be obtained without any danger of simultaneously harming the . micro-organismsO
Since these terpenes may be obtained from spice plants which have been used in human and animal foods for many years, and have proven harmless in the amounts thus used~ this ensures that the amounts of terpene to be used according to the invention will have no harmful effects when consumed with the foodstuffs treated therewith.
- Since the virucidal action sought is obtainable with a relatively small addition of terpenes, there is also no question of the said terpenes impairing the taste of the foodstuffs After inoculation, the micro-organisms increase in number and the amount of terpene needed to protect the total volume of micro-organisms may be added to the foodstuff all at once. However, the terpene may also be added to chronologically consecutive batches as the micro-organism pop--; ulation increases.
The following terpenes~ or mixtures of terpenes9 have been found to be partic~larly satisfactory: black-pepper oil, cinnamon~flower oil cardamum oil, linalyl acetate, cinnamic aldehyde, safrol~ carvone and cis/
trans citral and these may be used separately or mixed together.
The terpenes used may be obtained as follows from spice plants by steam distillation:
black-pepper oil: from ~he pips of the piper nigrum;
cinnamon-flower oil- from the blossoms of the cinnamonum cassia;
cardamum oil: from the seeds of th~ elettaria cardamomum;
.
. "''' ' ' -. '' ' ' : -, ' -' ' ~' ' ' ~ ~ ' " , " ' linalyl acetate: from the blossoms of the lavender:
cinnamic aldehyde: from the bark of the cinnamonum ceylanicum;
safrol: from the root of the sassafras;
carvone: from the fruit of the carl~ carvi, and cis/trans citral: from the leaves of the cymbopogon citratus.
It is also possible to use, instead of these natural terpenes, syn~hetic terpenes identical therewith~ iE they are avai]able. ~owever~
natural terpenes obtained from spice plants are to be preferredO
The resuLts obtainable with the invention are determined by com-parison tests as follows:
; Gell cultures were grown in various vessels, under optimal con-ditions, from permanent strains such as "Girardi Heart" ~GH)~ "Flow'l12000 (FL) "Intestine 407" ~IN) and "Vero Kidney" (V~) forming on the bottom of each vessel a mat of cell culture containing abouk 0025 mg of cell substance.
A suspension of Virus Adeno Type 6 was also used.
For the total of eight terpenes shown in Table 1 twenty cultures were prepared from each type of cellO The said twenty cultures from each type of cell were treated with different amounts of the relevant terpene~
as shown below:
The first two cell cultures received 10~ mg of terpene per 10 kg of cell substanceO The next ~wo cell cultures received 104 mg of terpene per 10 kg of cell substance. The ne~t two cell cultures received 103 mg of terpene per 10 kg of cell substance~ and so on to the last two of these twenty cell cultures which received 0.1 mg of terpene per 10 kg of cell substance. Thus two similar cell cultures were always treated with the - .

, same amo~mt of the same terpene. One of these two similar cell cultures was left as it was and was used as a control~ while the second was also inoculated, while still in the form of a virus suspension3 with 5 x 10 virus particles per 0025 mg of cell substances. The other cell cultures and terpenes were dealt with accordingly.
The cell cultures thus treated were allowed to stand and~ after four and six days, the~ were examined microscopically ~or cell damage~
` the damage observed being grouped into four stages as follows7 stage O signifying no damage ` 10 stage 1 signifying loosened growth of cell bonds stage 2 signifying that the cells had formed balls had become detached from the bottom of the vessel stage 3 signifying that the cell structures had been largely or completely destroyed.
It was fo~md that inoculated cell structures which had been pro-tected with a very small amouIlt of terpene had reached stage 3 or 2, since `~ the viruses had damaged the cells. Inoculated cell cultures containing a very large amount of terpene had also reached stage 3 or 2g since the cells had been damaged by an excess of terpene. ~lowever~ cell cultures containing only a moderate amount of terpene were at stage 0~ i.e. they showed no signs of damage. Thus the moderate amount of terpene did enough ~ damage to the viruses to protect the cells from attack~ but without damag-:
ing the cells themselves. Terpene concentrations at which the inoculated cell cultures after four and six days, were at stage 0, with a few at stage 1~ i.e. in which the viruses had been damaged without damaging the cells, are given in Table 1.

The mixture is allowed to stand at 40~ for 12 hours~ protected from external influences~ ~til the yoghurt has formedO

100 l of finished, filtered beer wort are adjusted to 10C~ 500 mg of black-pepper oil are mixed thereinto, after which it is inoculated with a culture of pure yeast obtained from saccharomyces cerevisae and allowed to stand at 10 C for 8 to 10 days~ protected from external influ ences. The finished beer is now removed from the yeast, which has in the meanwhile settled, and is filled into barrels.
;~ 100 1 of finished, filtered beer wort are adjusted to 10 C. 500 mg of black-pepper oil are mixed thereinto. 1 mg of black-pepper oil is mixed with 100 g of a pure yeast culture derived from saccharomyces cere-~-visiae, and the mixture is aIlowed to stand for 15 minutes. The 100 1 of beer wort are then inoculated with this yeast and are allowed to stand at 10 C for 8 to 10 days~ protected from external influences. D~uring this period, batches of black-pepper oil~ each containing 2480 mg, are added to the fermenting beer wort at 5, 10, 12 and 14 hours after the inoculation.
After the final batch has been added, the beer is allowed to remain quiet so that fermentation is completed~ the yeast settles, and the finished beer - ~ .~
~B~
can be removed therefrom and filled into barrels. The total amount of terpene added was 10~000 mgO
In these examples~ the addition of terpene pre~ented damage by viruses and bacteriophages, but because of the small amount of terpene no taste or other problems had to be taken into account.
The examples given may be modified by replacing the black-pepper oil with the same amount of another terpene from Table 1~ or with a mixture of several of these terpenes. The amount of terpene used may also be var-ied~ within the range given in ~he claimsO In all of these cases~ a viru-cidal action is obtained, without any taste or other problems.
Black_pepper oil is obtained from black pepper by steam distil-lationO The black-pepper oil is dissol~ed in 1~27dihydroxypropane in a ; weight ratio of 1:50. The solution is sterilized for 50 minutes at 121 C
in an autoclave. The preparation thus obtained is added to the foodstuff, to be treated with the micro-organisms in a weight ratio of between 50 mg and 5.0 g of the preparation to 10 kg of the foodstuff~ corresponding to between 1 and 100 mg of terpene to 10 kg of foodstuff.
Example 4 may be modified by replacing the black-pepper oil with ~0 the same amount of another terpene in Table 1~ or with a mixture of several terpenes. It is also possible in this example to vary the terpene: 1~2 dihydroxypropane in the range between 1:10 and 1:1000. In this case~ the amount of the preparation added to the foodstuff must be altered to maintain ; the concentration of between 1 and 100 mg of terpene to 10 kg of foodstuff.
The preparation according to Example 4~ or modified as indicated~
- . . , ~ , . ~ . ' ' :
is used to add the terpene to foodstuffs, and it may also be used in con-j~mtion with Examples 1~ 2 and 3.
The aforementioned micro-organisms are accessible to the public as follows:
