Abstract
This study developed a postbiotic fermentation solution for fresh oyster preservation with the use of food waste soy whey. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299V was able to proliferate in soy whey within 24 h without any supplementation. Pacific oysters (Magallana gigas) were immersed in the postbiotic fermentation solution and stored at 4 °C for 12 days. Pathogenic bacteria Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Salmonella enterica introduced by bioaccumulation were suppressed to levels below the detection limit (<2 log CFU/g) within 4 days. The spoilage-related microbial parameters and chemical parameters were maintained at low levels across the 12 days. Sensory evaluation revealed that the product had a positive effect on most of the participants (>60%). Overall, the postbiotic fermentation solution reported in this study enhanced the shelf life and safety of oysters in a sustainable way and could also be recognized as an innovative probiotic vehicle with potential implications for human health promotion.
