چکیده
We report the first case of surgical site abscess caused by Lactobacillus fermentum from a 53-year-old woman with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus after transthoracic esophagectomy and neoadjuvant chemoirradiation. 16S rRNA gene sequencing is a useful tool to better characterize the epidemiology and clinical significance of L. fermentum.

Introduction Acetobacter pasteurianus is among the major bacteria responsible for acetic fermentation and gives the characteristic taste of vinegar, can be found as a contaminant of wine production industry. In industrial fermentation is frequent contamination by lactic acid bacteria such as Lactobacillus fermentum that competes with the yeast for nutrients and inhibiting their growth, slow the...
متن کاملIdentification of predominant Lactobacillus species in liquid sourdough fermentation
Two high protein wheat flour samples of Red Horse (RH) and Bake with Yen (BY) were examined for predominant Lactobacillus spp. in fermented liquid sourdough. The identification of Lactobacillus spp. was based on biochemical tests of catalase test, gas carbon dioxide production, arginine test, the ability to grow at temperature of 15°C and 45°C and carbohydrate fermentation using API50CH kit. Th...

A total of 109 lactic acid bacteria isolated from infant faeces were identified by partial 16S rRNA, cpn60 and/or pheS sequencing. Lactobacillus was the most prevalent genus, representing 48% of the isolates followed by Enterococcus (38%). Lactobacillus gasseri (21%) and Enterococcus faecalis (38%) were the main species detected. A further selection of potential probiotic starter cultures for f...
