“…As its spores can survive conventional heat processes, not only is the pasteurisation insufficient to destroy Alicyclobacillus spores, but also the pasteurised fruit juices could provide abundant nutrition for spores to germinate and grow (Cai et al ., 2015c; Wang et al ., ). The characteristic of the spoilage is the formation of a distinct antiseptic or medicinal off‐odour caused by guaiacol and the halophenols, including 2, 6‐dichlorophenol and 2, 6‐dibromophenol, and guaiacol is the mainly metabolite, which can be detected at a level of 2 μg L −1 by sensory means in fruit juices (Wang et al ., ; Cai et al ., ). It has been reported that Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris had been isolated from various fruit juices, such as apple, kiwi, pear, grapefruit, lemon, orange, pear, passion, mango and so on, with apple is the most frequent isolation sources (Cai et al ., 2015a; Tianli et al ., ).…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the antibacterial activity and mechanism of cinnamic acid and chlorogenic acid against Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of cinnamic acid and chlorogenic acid were 0.375 and 2.0 mg mL À1 , and the minimum bactericidal concentrations were 0.50 and 4.0 mg mL À1 , respectively. The apple juice ingredients had little influence on the inactivation of A. acidoterrestris. After treatment with cinnamic acid and chlorogenic acid, the morphology of A. acidoterrestris cells were severely destroyed; the leakage of nucleic acids and proteins increased significantly. SDS-PAGE investigation of bacterial proteins proved that the loss of soluble proteins was obvious as well. These results demonstrated that cinnamic acid and chlorogenic acid exerted their antibacterial activity mainly by an action mode of membrane disruption. This study provides an alternative method for the control of A. acidoterrestris-related spoilage in the fruit juice/beverage industry.

“…B. cereus has been widely known as a foodborne pathogenic and a spoilage microorganism able to synthesize proteases, lipases, lecitinases 42 , quitinases 43 , and pectinases 44 . Similarly, A. acidoterrestris is recognized for producing decarboxylases that spoil acidic fruit juices 45 . Nonetheless, this is the first report on A. acidoterrestris colonizing an artwork.…”

Cultural heritage has become a keystone for comprehending our society, as it represents and reflects our origins, passions, beliefs and traditions. Furthermore, it provides fundamental information about specific temporary spaces, materials’ availability, technology, artist’s intention, and site weather conditions. Our aim was to develop a multidisciplinary approach with a main focus on investigating two Italian large-format paintings located in highly diverse environments such as the National Theater of Costa Rica. We monitored environmental conditions and quantified fungal aerial spores. Then, we determined regions of possible biodeterioration with the software MicroorganismPattern and used the software PigmentArrangement to elucidate the apparent colour of the paintings based on distribution and arrangement of the pigment crystals. Finally, we characterized eight genera of calcareous nannofossils found in the ground layers of the artwork. The former Men’s Canteen at the National Theater of Costa Rica presented a mean air temperature of 23.5 $$^{\circ }$$ ∘ C, a relative humidity of 72.7% and a concentration of CO$$_{2}$$ 2 of 570 ppm. The fungal aerial concentration was 1776 spores/m$$^{3}$$ 3 . The software MicroorganismPattern identified 32 sampling regions, out of which 11 were positive for microbial contamination. The software PigmentArrangement determined that the blue crystals (ultramarine pigment) had the shortest distances between themselves (29 $$\upmu$$ μ m). Finally, the nanofossils identified enabled us to restrict the age of the material to a biostratigraphic interval ranging from Coniacian to Maastricthian ages. By using a multidisciplinary approach we were able to explore the diptych, suggest a set of minimally invasive perspectives in tropical environments to be used worldwide and obtain key information about the artist’s artistic process, materials used along with better understand its state of conservation.

Over time, cultural heritage has become a key for comprehending and developing our society at an individual and group level, as it provides fundamental information about our origins, specific temporary space, materials' availability using current technology, artist's intention, and site weather conditions. Here, we investigated the physical characteristics of an Italian large-format artwork diptych, located on the ceiling of the National Theater of Costa Rica, to evaluate its pictorial palette as well as the tropical climatological conditions and the fungal aerial spore concentration. We characterized the role of two innovative software tools, as they have direct connection with an effective microbiological sampling and description of secrets encompassed in each pictorial layer during the process of creation and intention. We further found that eight genera of calcareous nannofossils could be associated with the optical properties of the artwork and the effects that the artist wanted to portray through his creative process.
