BACKGROUND: Five probiotic lactobacilli were tested, alone or in combination with two commercial starters, to select the most suitable strain for a probiotic bovine salami production. Lactobacillus plantarum 299v was used with both starters, to make salami according to a traditional recipe. Salami obtained by using just the starters and by spontaneous fermentation, served as control. Microbial dynamics, as well as the main physico-chemical parameters, were monitored throughout ripening. The survival of probiotic 299v was confirmed by strains' tracking by means of RAPD-PCR coupled to a culture-independent approach PCR-DGGE-based. RESULTS: The results showed a remarkable viability of the probiotic strain even after 60 days of storage. Experimental salami exhibited the same level of sensory acceptance of control salami, were hygienically safe, and characterised by pH, weight loss and microbiological loads within the ranges conventionally advocated for optimal fermented sausages. CONCLUSION: Outcomes indicate the workable possibility of using second-quality beef cuts for probiotic salami production. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
