双歧杆菌包埋保存技术工艺研究

采用一种全新的思路和方法,从将双歧杆菌活菌完全隔绝空气和降低其对温度的敏感性出发,运用制备微囊的方法,采用一种药用成膜材料,将包埋与冷冻干燥有机结合起来,在冷冻干燥的同时迅速在双歧杆菌活菌体周围形成一层类似微囊的保护膜,即将双歧杆菌活菌体包埋在保护膜内,从而达到减少甚至避免菌体冻干损伤,提高活菌存活率和收率,延长活菌常温保存期,提高活菌常温稳定性的目的。同时,这种包埋保存技术完全去除了常规冻干辅料——脱脂奶粉,能有效减少冷冻干燥菌粉的吸湿性,更利于活菌保存。用双歧杆菌包埋保存技术制备出的冻干菌粉,其含菌量比用常规冻干保护剂作冻干辅料的冻干菌粉高几百亿个／克,双歧杆菌活菌在37℃的保存期达四个月(相当于常温下保存一年以上),有效地解决了双歧杆菌活菌制剂常温保存期短的技术关键问题。

Micro-encapsulation of <Emphasis Type="Italic"> Bifidobacterium lactis</Emphasis> for incorporation into soft foods

Summary Micro-encapsulation of the probiotic micro-organism Bifidobacterium lactis isolated from a bio-yoghurt starter culture, was carried out using a mixture of hydrated gellan and xanthan gums. Rheological studies showed that the gum mix was suitable for encapsulation of B. lactis, for incorporation into soft foods/beverages. The gel behaved as a non-Newtonian material, and the flow curve fitted well to the Herschel–Bulkley model. The average yield stress of the gum was 1.515 Pa, indicating gum stability, and the yield stress range was 1 Pa over a temperature range of 35–50 °C. Almost constant minimum gum viscosity occurred between 46 and 61 °C. Oval/round capsules were synthesized manually using a monoaxial gum flow through a 27.5 G bevelled needle, together with a superposed air stream (air knife technique). The diameter of the capsules, measured using laser diffractometry, varied from 20 to 2200μm, with 50% of the capsules having a diameter of ≤637 μm. Numbers of viable B. lactis in the capsules were estimated using high power ultrasound (20 kHz). By using a concentrated inoculum of B. lactis, microcapsules containing log₁₀ 11–12 c.f.u. g−1 were synthesized. Apart from the anaerobic culturing of B. lactis, all other work was done in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. The organism exhibited a high degree of oxygen tolerance. A 21-day survival study of immobilized cells in 1 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7) stored at either 4 or 22 °C indicated that B. lactis survived in excess of log₁₀ 11 c.f.u. g−1 microcapsule. This technique represents a suitable means of supplying viable probiotics to the food and/or pharmaceutical industries.

Effects of Probiotics on Survival,Growth and Digestive Enzymes Activities in Freshwater Prawn <Emphasis Type="Italic">Macrobrachium rosenbergii</Emphasis> (De Man 1879)

A study was conducted to examine the effects of three probiotics, Lactobacillus sporogenes, Bacillus subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae on the survival, growth and digestive enzymes activities of the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii post larvae (PL). The probiotics, L. sporogenes (4 %), B. subtilis (3 %) and S. cerevisiae (4 %) were taken and mixed with basal diet. Diet without probiotics served as control. These probiotics diets were fed to M. rosenbergii PL for a period of 60 days. After the feeding trail, the growth parameters such as survival, weight gain, specific growth rate and protein efficiency rate were found to be significantly (P < 0.05) higher in 4 % S. cerevisiae incorporated diet fed PL when compared with control. In the case of feed conversion rate just the reverse was seen (P < 0.05) at this concentration. This indicates its superior quality among different concentrations of probiotics tested. Activities of digestive enzymes, such as protease, amylase and lipase were significantly (P < 0.05) higher at this concentration (4 % S. cerevisiae). Some of essential and non-essential amino acids also significantly elevated in probiotics supplemented diet fed prawns. This study indicated that probiotics, S. cerevisiae incorporated diets were beneficial for M. rosenbergii in terms of increasing growth, enzyme and amino acid production.     

Effects of probiotics on growth,survival, and intestinal and liver morphometry of Gangetic mystus (Mystus cavasius)

The usage of probiotics proved advantageous in aquaculture due to its positive impact on fish growth, immune response and environment. This study was aimed to assess the effects of probiotics on growth, survival and histometry of intestine and liver in Gangetic mystus (Mystus cavasius) using two separate experiments for a period of 8 weeks (in aquaria) and 16 weeks (in earthen ponds). Three different probiotic treatments were incorporated i.e. commercial probiotic one; CP-1 (T1), commercial probiotic two; CP-2 (T2), Lab developed (Lab dev.) probiotic (T3) including a control. The results indicated that the probiotics usage especially Lab dev. probiotic (T3) significantly improved the growth parameters such as weight gain (g) and specific growth rate (SGR, %/day) as well as ensured better feed conversion efficiency. Zero mortality was observed in aquaria whereas probiotic application enhanced survivability in earthen ponds. Moreover, all probiotic treatment exhibited positive results for different histo-morphometric features of intestine and liver. Mucus secreting goblet cells and fattening of mucosal fold increased significantly with probiotic usage. The amount of regular shaped nucleus was maximum in T3 with least intra cellular distance between liver tissues in earthen ponds. The greatest value for hemoglobin with lowest glucose level was observed in T3 as well. Furthermore, probiotic ensured low concentration of ammonia during culture. Overall, it was anticipated that the application of probiotics in Gangetic mystus culture resulted positive effect on its growth, feed utilization, survivability, histo-morphometry, immunity and hematological parameters.     

Glucose improves the in vitro viability of Microsporum canis and Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. mentagrophytes

We describe simple and cost-effective methods using carbohydrates to improve the in vitro viability of dermatophytes. Glucose and sucrose in different concentrations (3, 6, 9 and 12%) were used to maintain fifteen strains of M. canis and T. mentagrophytes var. mentagrophytes at 4 and -20 degrees C. The strains were phenotypically analyzed before storage and reevaluated at 1, 3, 6 and 9 months. At 1 and 3 months, any alterations in the viability or phenotype pattern of the stored strains were noted. At 6 months, both dermatophytes were 100% viable, when preserved in glucose (3, 6, 9 and 12%) at -20 degrees C. All T. mentagrophytes strains were also viable in sucrose (12%), at 4 degrees C and -20 degrees C. However, sucrose failed to improve the viability of M. canis at both temperatures. At 9 months, the higher viabilities without pleomorphism were seen for both dermatophytes preserved in glucose (9 and 12%) at -20 degrees C.     

Identification and quantification of viable Bifidobacterium breve strain Yakult in human faeces by using strain-specific primers and propidium monoazide

Aims: To develop a quick and accurate PCR‐based method to evaluate viable Bifidobacterium breve strain Yakult (BbrY) in human faeces. Methods and Results: The number of BbrY in faeces was detected by using strain‐specific quantitative real‐time PCR (qPCR) derived from a randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis. And using propidium monoazide (PMA) treatment, which combined a DNA‐intercalating dye for covalently linking DNA in dead cells and photoactivation, only viable BbrY in the faeces highly and significantly correlated with the number of viable BbrY added to faecal samples within the range of 10⁵–10⁹ cells per g of faeces was enumerated. After 11 healthy subjects ingested 10·7 log CFU of BbrY daily for 10 days, 6·9 (±1·5) log CFU g^?1 [mean (±SD)] of BbrY was detected in faeces by using strain‐specific transgalactosylated oligosaccharide–carbenicillin (T‐CBPC) selective agar medium. Viable BbrY detected by qPCR with PMA treatment was 7·5 (±1·0) log cells per g and the total number (viable and dead) of BbrY detected by qPCR without PMA treatment was 8·1 (±0·8) log cells per g. Conclusions: Strain‐specific qPCR with PMA treatment evaluated viable BbrY in faeces quickly and accurately. Significance and Impact of the Study: Combination of strain‐specific qPCR and PMA treatment is useful for evaluating viable probiotics and its availability in humans.     

Preservation of Mycobacteria: 100% Viability of Suspensions Stored at -70 C

Our earlier studies on long-term preservation of mycobacteria have been expanded to include other species in this genus. Mycobacterium kansasii and M. marinum, like mammalian tubercle bacilli and BCG, survive much better when stored at -70 C. By statistical analysis, M. gordonae, M. scrofulaceum, M. xenopi, M. avium, M. intracellulare, M. terrae, M. fortuitum, and M. smegmatis survived equally well at -20 C or -70 C; however, viable counts of all strains stored at -20 C were always lower than those of paired suspensions stored at -70 C, suggesting that the lower temperature is preferable for prolonged storage periods. Advantages of preservation at -70 C in Tween-albumin liquid medium are: (i) 100% viability of bacterial populations for long periods, (ii) highly reproducible inocula for animal experiments, (iii) minimal clonal selection of undesirable mutants, (iv) maintenance of genetic characteristics, and (v) adaptability to a "seed lot" system. On the basis of available information, a discussion of lyophilization versus freezer storage is presented.     

Low Temperature Storage of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Telenomus remus</Emphasis> (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) and its Factitious Host <Emphasis Type="Italic">Corcyra cephalonica</Emphasis> (Stainton) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

We conducted three bioassays to evaluate the effect of low-temperature storage of eggs (host) and pupae and adults (parasitoid) on the biology and parasitism capacity of the egg parasitoid Telenomus remus (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae). Viable stored Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) eggs were parasitized to the same degree or even higher than fresh eggs when stored until 14 days at 5°C or until 21 days at 10°C. In contrast, the percentage of parasitized sterilized eggs was equal to the control only when stored for 7 and 14 days. Survival of T. remus pupae declined with storage time at both studied temperatures (5 and 10°C). However, after 7 days of storage, survival of pupae was still 86.3 and 64.9% at 10 and 5°C, respectively. The number of adult male survivors remained similar until the fourth storage day at both 5 and 10°C. In contrast, female survival did not differ until day 8 at 10°C or day 6 at 5°C. Parasitism capacity of stored adults was not altered by storage compared with the control. Therefore, we conclude that the maximal storage time at 10°C is 21 days for viable C. cephalonica eggs and 7 days for T. remus pupae, while parasitoid adults should not be stored for more than 4 days at either 5 or 10°C.     

Lactic acid bacteria isolated from canine faeces

AIMS: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated and sequenced from the faeces of healthy dogs. Five of these strains were selected and further characterized to clarify the potential of these strains as probiotics for canine. METHODS AND RESULTS: LAB were found in 67% (14/21) of the canine faeces samples when plated on Lactobacilli Selective Media without acetic acid. Out of 13 species identified with partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing, Lactobacillus fermentum LAB8, L. mucosae LAB12, L. rhamnosus LAB11, L. salivarius LAB9 and Weissella confusa LAB10 were selected as candidate probiotic strains based on their frequency, quantity in faeces, growth density, acid tolerance and antimicrobial activity. The minimal inhibitory concentration values of these isolates were determined for 14 antibiotics. L. salivarius LAB9, W. confusa LAB10 and L. mucosae LAB12 were viable in pH 2 for 4 h (mLBS), indicating tolerance to acidity and thus the potential to survive in gastrointestinal tract of the canine. The LAB8-LAB12 strains showed antimicrobial activity against Micrococcus luteus A1 NCIMB86166. CONCLUSIONS: Thirteen different LAB species were found from the faecal microbiota of the healthy canines. Five acid tolerant and antimicrobially active LAB strains with the capacity to grow to high densities both aerobically and anaerobically were chosen to serve as candidate probiotics. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The selected LAB strains are among the first host-specific LAB with antimicrobial activity isolated from canines that could serve as potential probiotics for canine use.
