🧀 2 concerned cheese(s) & family(ies) •
🦠 1 linked living taxon(s)
🌡️ Target physicochemical parameters
Affinage en cave fraîche et stockage (2 semaines à 5 mois) • Adaptation marquée à l'écosystème fromager (psychrotolérance à 4-15 °C, tolérance au sel), dissémination par les claies et l'air des hâloirs
🛡️ Cellar protocol & prophylaxis
Nettoyage thermique des planches et claies d'affinage, filtration d'air des caves, brossage régulier et ensemencement compétitif de surface
🔬 Biochemical & molecular mechanism
Biosynthèse d'acide cyclopiazonique (CPA) et d'alcaloïdes indoliques (rugulovasines A et B) associée à la dégradation des lipides corticaux
