Statistics-based experimental designs were used to develop a cost-effective medium for enhanced production of viable cells and bacteriocin by probiotic Enterococcus faecium MC13. Carbon, nitrogen, and mineral sources were first screened by one-variable-at-a-time (OVAT) methods. In order to increase yield production, the selected variables were further statistically optimized using response-surface methodology (RSM) with central composite design (CCD). The maximum and minimum levels of the selected variables were determined and a set of 34 experimental runs was performed. The optimum concentrations of the tested variables for production of viable cells (12.24 log CFU mL(-1)) and bacteriocin activity (25,600 AU mL(-1)) were tryptone (10.0 g/L), peptone (6.0 g/L), maltose (3.0 g/L), glucose (9.0 g/L), NaCl (15.0 g/L), sodium citrate (2.5 g/L), sodium acetate (1.0 g/L), and dipotassium PO(4) (0.1 g/L). Threefold increased yield of bacteriocin was achieved in optimized medium compared to the unoptimized counterpart, and this was two times less cost than commercial MRS medium. 相似文献

In this study, a non-sterile (open) continuous fermentation (OCF) process with no-carbon loss was developed to improve lactic acid (LA) productivity and operational stability from the co-utilization of lignocellulose-derived sugars by thermophilic Enterococcus faecium QU 50. The effects of different sugar mixtures on LA production were firstly investigated in conventional OCF at 50°C, pH 6.5 and a dilution rate of 0.20 hr−1. The xylose consumption ratio was greatly lower than that of glucose in fermentations with glucose/xylose mixtures, indicating apparent carbon catabolite repression (CCR). However, CCR could be efficiently eliminated by feeding solutions containing the cellobiose/xylose mixture. In OCF at a dilution rate ca. 0.10 hr−1, strain QU 50 produced 42.6 g L−1 of l -LA with a yield of 0.912 g g−1-consumed sugars, LA yield of 0.655 g g−1 based on mixed sugar-loaded, and a productivity of 4.31 g L−1 hr−1 from simulated energy cane hydrolyzate. In OCF with high cell density by cell recycling, simultaneous and complete co-utilization of sugars was achieved with stable LA production at 60.1 ± 3.25 g L−1 with LA yield of 0.944 g g−1-consumed sugar and LA productivity of 6.49 ± 0.357 g L−1 hr−1. Besides this, a dramatic increase in LA yield of 0.927 g g−1 based on mixed sugar-loaded with prolonged operational stability for at least 500 hr (>20 days) was established. This robust system demonstrates an initial green step with a no-carbon loss under energy-saving toward the feasibility of sustainable LA production from lignocellulosic sugars. 相似文献

A bacteriocin producer strain MC13 was isolated from the gut of Mugil cephalus (grey mullet) and identified as Enterococcus faecium. The bacteriocin of E. faecium MC13 was purified to homogeneity, as confirmed by Tricine sodium dodecyl sulphate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed a single active fraction eluted at 26 min, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry analysis showed the molecular mass to be 2.148 kDa. The clear zone in native PAGE corresponding to enterocin MC13 band further substantiated its molecular mass. A dialyzed sample (semicrude preparation) of enterocin MC13 was broad spectrum in its action and inhibited important seafood-borne pathogens: Listeria monocytogenes , Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio vulnificus. This antibacterial substance was sensitive to proteolytic enzymes: trypsin, protease, and chymotrypsin but insensitive to catalase and lipase, confirming that inhibition was due to the proteinaceous molecule, i.e., bacteriocin, and not due to hydrogen peroxide. Enterocin MC13 tolerated heat treatment (up to 90 °C for 20 min). Enterococcus faecium MC13 was effective in bile salt tolerance, acid tolerance, and adhesion to the HT-29 cell line. These properties reveal the potential of E. faecium MC13 to be a probiotic bacterium. Enterococcus faecium MC13 could be used as potential fish probiotic against pathogens such as V. parahaemolyticus, Vibrio harveyi, and Aeromonas hydrophila in fisheries. Also, this could be a valuable seafood biopreservative against L. monocytogenes. 相似文献

Among the strains used as starters for making sour milk products on the territory of the CIS, the bacteria Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus durans are frequently found. In this work, we studied a new collection of lactic acid enterococci and also obtained more complete data on the nucleotide sequences of 16S rRNA genes in some strains studied earlier and found that most strains had certain distinctions in their 16S rRNA genes as compared with the E. durans and E. faecium genes available in the NCBI database. Based on these data, it is suggested that the strains of lactic acid enterococci represent new, earlier unknown taxa of enterococci that use milk as an ecological niche. 相似文献

The antibacterial activity of the probiotic bacterium Enterococcus faecium M-74 was assessed on De Man–Rogosa–Sharpe (MRS), Todd–Hewitt (T–H), M17 (M-17) and brain heart infusion (BHI) media with sodium selenite pentahydrate (+Se) and without sodium selenite pentahydrate (–Se) under aerobic or anaerobic conditions against nine bacterial pathogens. The highest antibacterial activity was found to be in the MRS medium under anaerobic conditions. There were no differences in the antibacterial activity between MRS(+Se) and MRS(–Se) media. The antimutagenic activity of MRS(+Se) and MRS(–Se) extracts after culture with E. faecium M-74 as well as of live and killed cells of E. faecium M-74 grown in the presence or absence of Se against the genotoxicity of ofloxacin (OFL) and acridine orange (AO) was determined in the Euglena gracilis assay. The MRS(+Se) extracts showed a significantly higher activity in reducing the genotoxicity of OFL and AO than MRS(–Se) extracts. The live cells of the probiotic strain M-74 exhibited higher antimutagenic activity than the killed bacterial cells, but differed depending on the mutagen used. However, the live bacterial cells grown in the presence of Se showed significantly higher antimutagenic activity. These results suggest a potential benefit for the future development of new Se-enriched probiotics exhibiting higher antimutagenic properties. 相似文献

We isolated a novel lactic acid bacterium from a Korean traditional fermented food, soybean paste. The newly isolated strain,
dubbed RKY2, grew well on glucose, sucrose, galactose, and fructose, but it could not utilize xylose, starch, or glycerol.
When the partially amplified 16S rDNA sequence (772 bp) of the strain RKY2 was compared with 10 reference strains, it was
found to be most similar toLactobacillus pentosus JCM 1588T, with 99.74% similarity. Therefore, the strain RKY2 was renamedLactobacillus sp. RKY2, which has been deposited in the Korean Collection for Type Cultures as KCTC 10353BP.Lactobacillus sp. RKY2 was found to be a homofermentative lactic acid bacterium, because its end-product from glucose metabolism was found
to be mainly lactic acid. It could produce more than 90 g/L of lactic acid from MRS medium supplemented with 100 g/L of glucose,
with 5.2 g L−1 h−1 of productivity and 0.95 g/g of lactic acid yield. 相似文献

Enterococcus faecium is gaining increasing interest due to its virulence and tolerance to a range of stresses (e.g., acid shock and nitrite stress in human stomach). The chemical taxonomy and basic structural features of cellular metabolite can provide us a deeper understanding of bacterial tolerance at molecular level. Here, we used hierarchical classification and molecular composition analysis to investigate the metabolome responses of E. faecium to acid shock and nitrite stress. Our results showed that considerable high biodegradable compounds (e.g., dipeptides) were produced by E. faecium under acid shock, while nitrite stress induced the accumulations of some low biodegradable compounds (e.g., organoheterocyclic compounds and benzenoids). Complete genome analysis and metabolic pathway profiling suggested that E. faecium produced high biodegradable metabolites responsible for the proton-translocation and biofilm formation, which increase its tolerance to acid shock. Yet, the presence of low biodegradable metabolites due to the nitrite exposure could disturb the bacterial productions of surface proteins, and thus inhibiting biofilm formation. Our approach uncovered the hidden interactions between intracellular metabolites and exogenous stress, and will improve the understanding of host-microbe interactions. 相似文献

AIMS: The partial characterization of bacteriocins produced by an environmental strain Enterococcus faecium EK13, isolated from cattle dung water. METHODS AND RESULTS: A bacteriocin was partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation, followed by a SP-Sepharose column, reverse-phase chromatography and N-terminal region sequenced. The anti-microbial substance produced was found to be a heat-stable polypeptide with molecular mass 4.83 kDa, which was determined by N-terminal amino acid sequencing to be enterocin A. A second substance was specified by PCR as enterocin P. Bacteriocins were stable at 4 and -20 degrees C for long storage periods. The optimum of bacteriocin production was observed in the range of pH 5.0-6.5 at 30 and 37 degrees C. The most active substances are produced by strain EK13 in logarithmic growth phase and bacteriocins are produced after 1 h of fermentation. The highest activity detected in fermentation experiments was 51 200 AU ml(-1) and the most sensitive indicator strain was found to be Listeria innocua LMG 13568. Differences in bacteriocin activity against two indicators could be explained by more than one type of enterocin production by strain EK13, or with different mode of action or in different sensitivity of strains. CONCLUSION: Enterococcus faecium strain EK13 isolated from cattle dung water produces two bacteriocins, enterocin A and P, with an inhibitory effect against the strain of the genera Enterococcus, Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Bacillus and Listeria (in different origin). SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Enterococcus faecium EK13 environmental strain is a new producer of enterocin A and P. The E. faecium EK13, isolated from cattle dung water, is presented with the further aim to utilize it for waste treatment by biotechnological processes. 相似文献

Wild flowers in the South of Spain were screened for Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium. Enterococci were frequently associated with prickypear and fieldpoppy flowers. Forty-six isolates, from 8 different flower
species, were identified as E. faecalis (28 isolates) or E. faecium (18 isolates) and clustered in well-defined groups by ERIC-PCR fingerprinting. A high incidence of antibiotic resistance
was detected among the E. faecalis isolates, especially to quinupristin/dalfopristin (75%), rifampicin (68%) and ciprofloxacin (57%), and to a lesser extent
to levofloxacin (35.7%), erythromycin (28.5%), tetracycline (3.5%), chloramphenicol (3.5%) and streptomycin (3.5%). Similar
results were observed for E. faecium isolates, except for a higher incidence of resistance to tetracycline (17%) and lower to erythromycin (11%) or quinupristin/dalfopristin
(22%). Vancomycin or teicoplanin resistances were not detected. Most isolates (especially E. faecalis) were proteolytic and carried the gelatinase gene gelE. Genes encoding other potential virulence factors (ace, efaA
fs, ccf and cpd) were frequently detected. Cytolysin genes were mainly detected in a few haemolytic E. faecium isolates, three of which also carried the collagen adhesin acm gene. Hyaluronidase gene (hyl
Efm
) was detected in two isolates. Many isolates produced bacteriocins and carried genes for enterocins A, B, and L50 mainly.
The similarities found between enterococci from wild flowers and those from animal and food sources raise new questions about
the puzzling lifestyle of these commensals and opportunistic pathogens. 相似文献

Comparative study of vanA gene transfer from Enterococcus faecium to Enterococcus faecalis and to Enterococcus faecium in the intestine of mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci represent a large reservoir in animals because of the use of avoparcin as a growth promoter in Europe. These strains of animal origin enter the food chain and can either colonize the human gut or transfer their resistance genes to the human microbiota. In this study, we compared the transfer of vancomycin resistance from resistant animal Enterococcus faecium to sensitive human Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium. We analysed these transfers in dibiotic mice and human faecal flora-associated mice. VanA transfer from animal E. faecium to human E. faecalis occurred in dibiotic mice. The transconjugants appeared rapidly and persisted at levels between 3.0 and 4.0 log10 colony-forming units g(-1) of faeces. In human faecal flora-associated mice, vanA gene transfer was not detected towards E. faecalis but was possible between E. faecium strains. Our experiments revealed the possibility of vanA transfer from animal E. faecium to human E. faecalis in vitro and in vivo in the intestine of dibiotic mice. However, intraspecies transfer of vanA gene seems more common than interspecies transfer among enterococci. 相似文献

A shared antigenic teichoic acid, previously found to be a surface capsule-like polysaccharide, was isolated from clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecalis and vancomycin-resistant E. faecium. It was composed of glucose, glycerol, and phosphate as determined by chemical and GC-MS analysis. The repeating-unit structure was elucidated by a series of 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy to be the following: [formula: see text] 相似文献

Abstract Comparisons of growth and surface colonisation of Enterococcus faecium L-forms and their cell-walled forms were undertaken to produce information about their ability to form sessile cells. The growth of L-forms in liquid culture was slower than that of the parent. This was reflected in their longer lag phase and slower specific growth rates: 0.16 h−1 for the L-form and 0.81 h−1 for the parent. Although E. faecium L-forms attached to a silastic rubber surface, the attached population density was 10–100-fold less than that of the parent. Confluent biofilms on the silastic surfaces were not observed for either bacterial form. Comparison of the attachment of E. faecium L-form and parent may provide important information on how bacteria overcome host defence mechanisms and antibiotic treatment. 相似文献

Thirty-one lactic acid bacterial strains from different species were evaluated for exopolysaccharide (EPS) production in milk. Thermophilic strains produced more EPS than mesophilic ones, but EPS yields were generally low. Ropiness or capsular polysaccharide formation was strain dependent. Six strains produced high-molecular-mass EPS. Polymers were classified into nine groups on the basis of their monomer composition. EPS from Enterococcus strains were isolated and characterized. 相似文献

Enterocin A produced by Enterococcus faecium EFM01 displayed a narrow antimicrobial spectrum, mainly directed against Listeria spp. In particular, the bacteriocin was extremely active against 13 Listeria monocytogenes strains. This high specificity of action of enterocin A for Listeria spp. relative to lactic acid bacteria, together with its broad range of activity from pH 4.0 to pH 9.0, are factors which may be of great interest with respect to the potential antilisterial use of this bacteriocin in fermented foods. Assessment of the effect of enterocin A concentration on the extent and kinetics of bactericidal activity on L. monocytogenes Lm 6 (107 cfu ml-1 in culture broth), suggested that viability losses of higher than 5 log10, and time intervals necessary for maximum loss of viability of less than 2 h, could not be obtained. Moreover, it was shown that both parameters are closely dependent on the Listeria strain used. On the other hand, at concentrations inducing destruction of approximately 2 log10 cycles, maximum loss of viability was achieved within time intervals which varied widely from one lactic acid bacteria bacteriocin to another. 相似文献

Enterococcus sp. strains are believed as important reason of serious nosocomial infections currently. These infections are cured by using combination of beta-lactams and aminoglycosides for their treatment. Enterococcus sp. resistant to high-level doses of aminoglycosides, beta-lactams and vancomycin are responsible for therapeutic failure. The aim of our study was to evaluate the incidence of isolation and susceptibility to antibiotics of HLAR Enterococcus sp. strains isolated between 2007 and 2010 from the patients of University Hospital No. 1 of dr A. Jurasz Collegium Medicum of L. Rydygier in Bydgoszcz Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń. Amongst 6137 Enterococcus sp. strains 1124 (18,3%) presented HLAR phenotype; 53,1% of them was identified as E. faecalis and 46,9% as E. faecium. The highest percentage of all examined strains was isolated from the patients of different surgery clinics, Intensive Care Units, and Pediatrics, Hematology and Oncology Clinic. HLAR and HLSR phenotypes were noted in E. faecalis, for 45,7% and 27,5% strains, in E. faecium - 29,8% and 9,5%, respectively. HLGR phenotype was presented twice more often in E. faecium than E. faecalis. Highest percentages of E. faecium resistant to glycopeptides and rifampicin were observed when compared with E. faecalis. The highest percentages of strains intermediate, resistant to vancomycin and resistant to glycopeptides were noted for E. faecium strains with phenotypes HLAR, HLGR and HLSR. 相似文献
