Conference

“The 3rd International Conference of Indonesian Society for Lactic Acid Bacteria (3rd IC-ISLAB):

Better Life with Lactic Acid Bacteria Exploring Novel Functions of Lactic Acid Bacteria”

21 – 22 January, 2011

Auditorium Faculty of Agricultural Technology

Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Introduction

It is well known that several researches in area of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been conducted in isolation and characterization of various indigenous microorganism linked to food fermentation which provide probiotic and prebiotic ability as well as additional synergistic suppression and inhibition for spoilage and pathogenic microorganism. Many species and strain of LAB have been suggested to provide beneficial effects of the gastrointestinal tract of human and animal. However, the most challenging effort is not only introduction the potential of indigenous microorganism but how to apply the research output into community. Therefore, the selection of the topic conference entitled Better Life with Lactic Acid Bacteria: Exploring Novel Functions of Lactic Acid Bacteria is one of the efforts to solve those challenges. Emphasizing of the research dissemination into society through strengthen the research networking among scientist, government, business society, and community is the main objective in this 3rd International Conference of Indonesian Society for Lactic Acid Bacteria (IC-ISLAB). read more

Seminar

“Lactic Acid Bacteria & Culture Collections: Their Role in Food, Health, Industry and

The Important of Management of Culture Collection”

16 – 17 January 2009

Auditorium Faculty of Agricultural Technology

Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Introduction

Indonesian as a mega-diversity country has diverse microorganisms, including lactic acid bacteria. These bacteria which have varied physiological functions have been isolated and investigated associated with human life. The utilization of lactic acid bacteria expand into many areas of food, health, and industries. Lactic acid bacteria play many roles in traditional Indonesian fermented foods such as tape, kecap, and asinan. Many species and strains of lactic acid bacteria have been suggested to have many beneficial effects on the health of the digestive tract of humans. read more
