Bacillus As Potential Probiotics: Status, Concerns, and Future Perspectives
Spore-forming bacilli are being explored for the production and preservation of food for many centuries. The inherent ability of production of large number of secretory proteins, enzymes, antimicrobial compounds, vitamins, and carotenoids specifies the importance of bacilli in food chain. Additionally, Bacillus spp. are gaining interest in human health related functional food research coupled w...
متن کاملModern Status and Perspectives of Bacillus Bacteria as Probiotics
Probiotics are identified as “Live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host” [1]. Although different microorganisms are claimed today as probiotics, usually they represent two main genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium.

متن کاملCharacterization of Bacillus probiotics available for human use.
Bacillus species (Bacillus cereus, Bacillus clausii, Bacillus pumilus) carried in five commercial probiotic products consisting of bacterial spores were characterized for potential attributes (colonization, immunostimulation, and antimicrobial activity) that could account for their claimed probiotic properties. Three B. cereus strains were shown to persist in the mouse gastrointestinal tract fo...
متن کاملAn Overview on Probiotics as an Alternative Strategy for Prevention and Treatment of Human Diseases
Aims: Probiotics are viable and useful microorganisms, which are beneficial factors for human and animal health by altering their microbial flora. Most of the probiotics belong to a large group of bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract. There are several clinical shreds of evidence that show anti-carcinogenic effects of probiotics through altering digestive enzymes, inhibition of carcinog...
متن کاملCharacterization of two Bacillus probiotics.
Bacillus subtilis is currently used as an oral probiotic. We examined two commercial B. subtilis probiotic preparations, Enterogermina and Biosubtyl. Surprisingly, physiological and genetic characterization of the bacteria contained in each of these preparations has shown that neither contains B. subtilis.
