Screening from pickled vegetables the potential probiotic strains of lactic acid bacteria able to inhibit the Salmonella invasion in mice

Aims: To screen from pickled vegetables the potential probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains with antagonistic activity against Salmonella invasion in host. Methods and Results: Probiotic properties including acid and bile tolerance as well as inhibition on pathogenic bacteria were used for screening of LAB strains from pickled vegetables. Two strains, i.e Pediococcus pentosaceus MP12 and Lactobacillus plantarum LAP6, were selected and further assayed for their activities against Salmonella invasion in mouse liver and spleen. For these two LAB strains, strain LAP6 was able to adhere to the mouse intestinal epithelium cells. Conclusions: In screening of the probiotic strains able to inhibit the Salmonella invasion in host, factors other than the adherence to host intestinal epithelium may contribute some roles. Significance and Impact of the Study: Probiotic LAB strains with activity against Salmonella invasion in host could be isolated from vegetable origins. These strains may be used for vegetable processing.     

Screening of lactic acid bacteria from fermented vegetables by carbohydrate profiling and PCR-ELISA

AIMS: The aim of this study was to identify potential souring agents, isolated from fermented plant material, by API 50 CHL assay and a molecular method based on polymerase chain reaction and colorimetric hybridization (PCR-ELISA). METHODS AND RESULTS: Forty-two strains of lactic acid bacteria derived from plant material were screened by taking advantage of API 50 CHL and PCR-ELISA. Oligonucleotide probes used for hybridization in PCR-ELISA were specific for lactobacilli, the Leuconostoc family, Lactobacillus pentosus/plantarum and Lactobacillus brevis. The hybrides were detected by a colour-developing reaction. Bacteria isolated from fermented cucumbers were identified as Lact. plantarum-related (Lact. plantarum and Lact. pentosus) and Leuconostoc species. Most of the strains isolated from sauerkraut were identified as Lact. pentosus/plantarum. CONCLUSIONS: Complementary results were obtained in the identification of bacterial strains, isolated from fermented cucumbers and sauerkraut, by API 50 CHL and PCR-ELISA. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: PCR-ELISA proved to be suitable for the screening of large numbers of bacterial isolates from fermented vegetables. This will be useful for the identification of strains suitable for the design of starter cultures for the fermentation of plant material.     

Bio-protective potential of lactic acid bacteria isolated from fermented wax gourd

The antifungal activities of 85 lactic acid bacteria strains isolated from fermented wax gourd against the four fungal species, Penicillium oxalicum, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus sydowii, and Mucor racemosus, were determined. Inhibitory activity against at least one or more fungal species was observed with 27 Weissella cibaria and 11 Weissella paramesenteroides strains. Among these strains, W. cibaria 861006 and W. paramesenteroides 860509 showed greater inhibitory activities and were therefore selected for further analysis. The results suggested that the antifungal activities were originated from the organic acids produced by W. cibaria 861006 and W. paramesenteroides 860509. The application tests indicated that the growth of P. oxalicum could be effectively inhibited by W. cibaria 861006 for 6 days on grape surfaces. However, W. paramesenteroides 860509 could only remain its inhibition effect for 48 h. The findings obtained in this study suggest the potential use of W. cibaria 861006 as a bio-protective agent against fungi for agricultural purposes or ready-to-eat fresh fruit and vegetable products.

Identification and probiotic properties of lactobacilli isolated from two different fermented beverages

Purpose

Scientific information regarding the microbial content and functional aspects of fermented beverages traditionally produced in certain parts of Europe are scarce. However, such products are believed to have some health benefits and might contain functional bacterial strains, such as probiotics. The aim of the study was to identify such lactic acid bacteria strains isolated from water kefir and, for the first time, from braga, a Romanian fermented beverage made of cereals.

Methods

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were identified to species level based on (GTG)₅-PCR fingerprinting and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Selected strains were screened for their antibacterial activity and probiotic potential.

Results

Eight isolates belonging to seven Lactobacillus species were recovered from the two drinks. The identification of LAB involved in the fermentation of braga (Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus delbrueckii) is firstly reported here. Five of the Lactobacillus isolates showed antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria, including Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella enterica. Moreover, most of them showed a good resistance to pH 2.5 and some survived at high concentrations of bile salts (up to 2%). Two L. plantarum isolates were able to inhibit all the indicator strains, and showed the best viability (about 70%) after a sequential treatment simulating the passage through the gastrointestinal tract.

Conclusion

Based on the results, the most promising candidates for designing new probiotic products are: L. plantarum BR9 from braga and L. plantarum CR1 from water kefir.

     

Probiotic characteristics of lactic acid bacteria isolated from kimchi

Aims: The present work was aimed at identifying strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from kimchi, with properties suitable for use as starter cultures in yogurt fermentation. Methods and Results: A total of 2344 LAB strains were obtained from two different sources, one group consisted of commercial LAB strains from kimchi, and the second group consisted of those strains isolated from various types of kimchi. The LAB strains from both groups were screened for resistance to biological barriers (acid and bile salts), and the four most promising strains were selected. Further analysis revealed that KFRI342 of the four selected strains displayed the greatest ability to reduce the growth of the cancer cells, SNU‐C4. The in vivo efficacy of strains in quinone reductase induction assay was evaluated, and the extent of DNA strand breakage in individual cells was investigated using the comet assay. Strain KFRI342 was identified as Lactobacillus acidophilus by 16S rRNA sequence analysis, showed protection against tumour initiation and imparted immunostimulation as well as protection against DNA damage. Conclusions: Strain KFRI342, which showed probiotic characteristics reducing cancer cell growth, could be a suitable starter culture for yogurt fermentation because of its strong acid production and high acid tolerance. Significance and Impact of the Study: This is the first report to describe a bacterium, isolated from kimchi, Lact. acidophilus KFRI342 which has the probiotic characteristics and the acid tolerance needed for its use as a starter culture in yogurt fermentation.     

Safety and probiotic functionality of isolated goat milk lactic acid bacteria

Purpose

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are traditionally employed in the food industry. LAB strains from goat milk may also present probiotic potential, and it is fundamental to study the safety and functionality aspects which are desirable for their use in food. The objective of this study was to verify the probiotic potential of lactic bacteria isolated from goat milk.

Methods

The presence of safety-related virulence factors (hemolytic activity, gelatinase production, coagulase, and sensitivity to antibiotics) as well as functionality (exopolysaccharide (EPS) production, proteolytic activity, autoaggregation, gas production, survival in the gastrointestinal tract, and antimicrobial activity against bacteria that impair oral health) were determined.

Result

The selected LAB strains are safe against the evaluated parameters and have characteristics of possible probiotic candidates. Especially L. plantarum (DF60Mi) and Lactococcus lactis (DF04Mi) have potential to be added to foods because they have better resistance to simulated gastrointestinal conditions. In addition, they are isolated with already proven antimicrobial activity against Listeria monocytogenes, an important food-borne pathogen. DF60Mi was able to produce EPS (exopolysaccharides). LS2 and DF4Mi strains, both Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis, demonstrated antimicrobial activity against S. mutans ATCC 25175, a recurrent microorganism in oral pathologies, mainly caries.

Conclusion

This study provides subsidies for future exploration of the potentialities of these LAB strains for both the development of new functional foods and for application in oral health.

     

In vitro study of potentially probiotic lactic acid bacteria strains isolated from kimchi

The objective of the present study was to investigate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from kimchi for their potential probiotic use. Ten preselected LAB strains were evaluated for their functionality and safety. Examined characteristics included acid and bile tolerance, cell adhesion, antimicrobial activity against pathogens, hemolytic activity, undesirable biochemical characteristics, and antibiotic resistance. Results indicated that consumption of these 10 strains does not pose any health risk, as they were not hemolytic and exhibited no undesirable biochemical activity or antibiotic resistance. In particular, three strains, Lactobacillus plantarum NO1, Pediococcus pentosaceus MP1, and Lactobacillus plantarum AF1, showed high degrees of acid and bile tolerance, adherence to Caco-2 and HT-29 cells, and antimicrobial activity against four pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella typhi, and Listeria monocytogenes). These results suggest that LAB strains from kimchi may have potential use as novel probiotics.     

Isolation and evaluation of probiotic potential of lactic acid bacteria isolated from poultry intestine

The gut is a source of lactic acid bacteria with remarkable functional and technologies properties as well as a potential source of probiotics. In the present study, 13 strains of Lactobacillus were isolated from poultry intestine and identified according to their 16S rDNA sequences, as well as the evaluation of their probiotic potential. The probiotic properties were tested in aspects of antibiotic susceptibility, antimicrobial activity, exopolysaccharide production, lysozyme tolerance, gut condition tolerance (low pH, bile salt tolerance) and adhesion to human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line (Caco-2). Most isolates were resistance to streptomycin (10 μg/mL), gentamicin (10 μg/mL), kanamycin (30 μg/mL), penicillin (10 μg/mL) and chloramphenicol (30 μg/mL). Isolates shows strong abilities to adhere to Caco-2 cell in the range of (76 to 85%). Isolates SHA101 to SHA113 showed high survival rate under gastrointestinal tract condition (>80%), indicating their potential in application of probiotics. The results of these tests indicate that the lactic acid bacteria isolated from poultry intestine have potential use as probiotic in various products.     

Characterization of some bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria isolated from fermented foods

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from different sources (dairy products, fruits, fresh and fermented vegetables, fermented cereals) were screened for antimicrobial activity against other bacteria, including potential pathogens and food spoiling bacteria. Six strains have been shown to produce bacteriocins: Lactococcus lactis 19.3, Lactobacillus plantarum 26.1, Enterococcus durans 41.2, isolated from dairy products and Lactobacillus amylolyticus P40 and P50, and Lactobacillus oris P49, isolated from bors. Among the six bacteriocins, there were both heat stable, low molecular mass polypeptides, with a broad inhibitory spectrum, probably belonging to class II bacteriocins, and heat labile, high molecular mass proteins, with a very narrow inhibitory spectrum, most probably belonging to class III bacteriocins. A synergistic effect of some bacteriocins mixtures was observed. We can conclude that fermented foods are still important sources of new functional LAB. Among the six characterized bacteriocins, there might be some novel compounds with interesting features. Moreover, the bacteriocin-producing strains isolated in our study may find applications as protective cultures.

Isolation, screening and characterization of bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria isolated from traditional fermented food

100 lactic acid bacterial strains isolated from traditional fermented foods (yoghurt, milk cream, sour dough and milk) were screened for bacteriocin production. Twenty six strains producing a nisin-like bacteriocin were selected. Most of these isolates gave only a narrow inhibitory spectrum, although one showed a broad inhibitory spectrum against the indicator strains tested, this strain was determined as Lactococcus lactis. The influence of several parameters on the fermentative production of nisin by Lactococcus lactis was studied. Production of nisin was optimal at 30 degrees C and in the pH range 5.5-6.3. The effect of different sulphur and nitrogen sources on Lactococcus lactis growth and nisin production was studied. Magnesium sulfate and manganese sulfate were found to be the best sulphur sources while triammonium citrate was the best inorganic nitrogen source and meat extract, peptone and yeast extract were the best organic nitrogen source for nisin production.     

Potential probiotic properties of lactic acid bacteria isolated from the intestinal mucosa of healthy piglets

In the present study, the probiotic properties of 52 lactic acid bacteria strains, isolated from the intestinal mucosa of 60-day-old healthy piglets, were evaluated in vitro in order to acquire probiotics of potential application. Based on acidic and bile salt resistance, 11 lactic acid bacteria strains were selected, among which 1 was identified as Pediococcus acidilactici, 3 as Enterococcus faecium, 3 as Lactobacillus rhamnosus, 2 as Lactobacillus brevis, and 2 as Lactobacillus plantarum by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. All selected strains were further investigated for transit tolerance in simulated upper gastrointestinal tract, for adhesion capacity to swine intestinal epithelial cells J2 (IPEC-J2), for cell surface characteristics including hydrophobicity, co-aggregation and auto-aggregation, and for antimicrobial activities. Moreover, hemolytic, bile salt hydrolase and biogenic amine-producing abilities were investigated for safety assessment. Two E. faecium (WEI-9 and WEI-10) and one L. plantarum (WEI-51) exhibited good simulated upper gastrointestinal tract tolerance, and showed high auto-aggregation and co-aggregation with Escherichia coli 1570. The strains WEI-9 and WEI-10 demonstrated the highest adherence capacity. The 11 selected strains mentioned above exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against E. coli CVCC1570, Staphylococcus aureus CVCC1882 and Salmonella pullorum AS1.1859. None of the 11 selected strains, except WEI-9 and WEI-33, exhibited bile salt hydrolase, hemolytic or biogenic amine-producing abilities. This work showed that the E. faecium WEI-10 and L. plantarum WEI-51were found to have the probiotic properties required for use as potential probiotics in animal feed supplements.
