Palm wine, the most commonly consumed traditional alcoholic beverage in Western Africa, harbours a complex microbiota and metabolites, which plays a crucial role in the overall quality and value of the product. In the present study, a combined metagenomic and metabolomic approach was applied to describe the microbial community structure and metabolites profile of fermented saps from three palm species (Elaeis guineensis, Raphia hookeri, Borassus aethiopum) in Côte d'Ivoire. Lactobacillaceae (47%), Leuconostocaceae (16%) and Acetobacteriaceae (28%) were the most abundant bacteria and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (87%) the predominant yeasts in these beverages. The microbial community structure of Raphia wine was distinctly different from the others. Multivariate analysis based on the metabolites profile clearly separated the three palm wine types. The main differentiating metabolites were putatively identified as gevotroline hydrochloride, sesartemin and methylisocitrate in Elaeis wine; derivative of homoserine, mitoxantrone in Raphia wine; pyrimidine nucleotide sugars (UDP-Dgalacturonate) and myo-Inositol derivatives in Borassus wine. The enriched presence of gevotroline (an antipsychotic agent) and mitoxantrone (an anticancer drug) in palm wine supports its therapeutic potential. This work provides a valuable insight into the microbiology and biochemistry of palm wines and a rationale for selecting functional microorganisms for potential biotechnology applications.

“…Similar inhibitory responses had been reported against diarrhoeagenic pathogens such as Salmonella typhi, Shigella dysentariae, Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli, compared to known antibiotics using a 7-day old fermented Raphia wine 83 . The responses observed may not be unconnected with the increased concentrations of metabolic products of wine fermentation such as lactic acid, acetic acid, alcohol, fatty acids and antimicrobial substances (bacteriocin, reutericyclin, mitoxantrone) known for their anti-microbial, immune-modulatory, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer, and cardio-circulatory functions 32,64,80,139,142,143 . The production of short-chain fatty acids particularly lactic and acetic acid by the LABs and AABs induces an unfavourable micro-environment inimical to the survival of intestinal pathogens through gut pH reductions 144,145 .…”

Feed is the most critical factor in animal production and the availability of cheap and high-quality feeds are crucial to sustainable livestock production. With the persistent scarcity and high cost of core feed inputs, the use of additives to increase feed use and economic efficiency through improved animal health and performance has gained popularity over the years. In recent times, non-antibiotic feed supplements, such as prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, herbal mixtures and clay minerals have been tested as effective feed additives in animal diets. Organic acids and probiotic products are dietary feed additives with growth-promoting abilities similar to antibiotics. However, palm sap, an alcoholic beverage from various palm species has shown promise as a potential source of organic acids and direct-fed microbial products. Thus, this review provides a brief discussion on the microbial and biochemical characteristics of palm wine and its potential benefits to the livestock industry to improve performance, increased digestive efficiency, reduce the proliferation of pathogenic organisms and disease incidence in animal production. From the kinds of literature reviewed, it can be concluded that the metabolic products of palm wine fermentation had bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties to inhibit pathogens while improving the growth performance of animals.
