Catalase-producing strains of streptococci.
The genus Streptococcus includes organisms which are homofermentative, facultative with respect to oxygen, fastidious in their nutrient requirements, without cytochrome system, and are therefore considered to be catalase negative. Recent work in this laboratory revealed two strains of several hundred streptococci, screened from silage fermentations, that were capable of producing catalase. They...
متن کاملTyramine-producing streptococci in neonatal diarrhoea.
An outbreak of neonatal diarrhoea associated with large numbers of Streptococcus faecalis var. zymogenes is described.A follow-up survey showed that 23.3% of 347 healthy babies carried this organism without ill effect. The tyrosine decarboxylase activity of the streptococci from both sick and healthy babies was identically high. It is suggested that the tyramine-producing activity of these stre...
متن کاملD(-)-lactic acid-producing probiotics, D(-)-lactic acidosis and infants.
There is mounting evidence that ingestion of selected probiotics can modify disease morbidity for specific conditions affecting humans, and there is growing interest in the amelioration or prevention of disease with probiotics. Modulation in gene expression of the cellular elements of the intestinal mucosa and interbacterial interactions are leading theories as to the mechanism whereby probioti...
متن کاملAntimicrobial microbes-bacteriocin producing lactic acid bacteria
The contribution of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to the improvement of food safety and stability of fermented foods has long been known. LAB overgrow other microorganisms of the same ecological niche in food products mainly due to lowering the pH, competing for nutrients, producing various antimicrobial substances such as organic acids, hydrogen peroxide, antibiotics and bacteriocins. Among these...
متن کاملIsolation of bacteriocin nisin producing Lactococcus lactis from dairy products
Most inhibitory substances produced by lactic acid bacteria are safe and effective natural inhibitors of pathogenic and food spoilage bacteria in various foods. In this study, bacteriocin nisin producing Lactococcus lactis was isolated from fermented milk and cheese. The test isolate was grown in MRS medium under optimized conditions. Bacteriocin activity of the test isolate was determined by a...
