Identification of Bacillus spp. from Bikalga, fermented seeds of Hibiscus sabdariffa: phenotypic and genotypic characterization.

Journal of applied microbiology - 1 Jan 2008

Ouoba L I I, Parkouda C, Diawara B, Scotti C, Varnam A H

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: To identify Bacillus spp. responsible of the fermentation of Hibiscus sabdariffa for production of Bikalga, an alkaline fermented food used as a condiment in Burkina Faso. METHODS AND RESULTS: Seventy bacteria were isolated from Bikalga produced in different regions of Burkina Faso and identified by phenotyping and genotyping using PCR amplification of the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic transcribed spacer...
