“…All these examples suggest that Y. lipolytica may be a regular, although probably minor, component of food microbiota. Despite the fact that, next to the examples for cheese and meat already mentioned, there are also reports suggesting that Y. lipolytica might be involved in spoilage of butter (Lin & Fung, 1987;Rodrigues Paula et al, 1988), margarine (Castañon-Vélez & Leal, 1973), yoghurt (Liu & Tsao, 2009;Rodrigues & Pais, 2000), mayonnaise-based salad (Buick & Damoglou, 1989), as well as fish and seafood (for overviews, see Fleet, 1992;Deak & Beuchat, 1996;Oh et al, 1998), it is important to stress that in all these cases, spoilage was exclusively related to taste or appearance. In no single case was there any evidence of food poisoning or of another health hazard related to Y. lipolytica (Lin & Fung, 1987;Peppler, 1977).…”
