The Use of Biosensors to Explore the Potential of Probiotic Strains to Reduce the SOS Response and Mutagenesis in Bacteria
نویسندگان
چکیده
A model system based on the Escherichia coli MG1655 (pRecA-lux) Lux-biosensor was used to evaluate the ability of the fermentates of eight probiotic strains to reduce the SOS response stimulated by ciprofloxacin in bacteria and mutagenesis mediated by it. Preliminary attempts to estimate the chemical nature of active components of the fermentates were conducted.

This research investigated the feasibility of using three strains Lactobacillus sp. viz. AM11, AM13, and AM14 previously isolated from dairy products to be used as probiotics in fish diet for phytase production. The bacteria grown in oxygenated media, bile salt, acid and supernatant of digestive tract were examined for their antibiotic resistance and non-pathogenicity for using in fish feed. R...
