2 .As many San Franciscans have noticed, sourdough bread stays fresher longer than the regular stuff.
该句暂无译文!
3 .Sourdough's extended freshness is due to extra fermentation that traps more moisture in the dough.

4 .But now we know that sourdough's longevity is also because it can ward off mold.
该句暂无译文!
5 .Because bacteria in some sourdough starters actually produce mold-killing compounds--essentially natural preservatives.

10 .The loaf resisted mold for 12 days--a few days more than L.sanfranciscensis sourdough, and twice as long as typical bread.

11 .Those results are in the journal Applied and Environmental Microbiology.

12 .L.hammesii isn't the most common sourdough strain.

13 .But researchers say it could eliminate the need for added preservatives.
