The effect of yoghurt and soya yoghurt containing Bifidobacterium lactis Bb-12 or B. longum Bb-46 on Ehrlich ascites tumour cell proliferation was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Tumour cells were incubated with B. lactis Bb-12 or B. longum Bb-46 cultivated in de Mann Rogosa Sharpe (MRS) broth medium, or with their centrifuged supernatant fractions or sediments, for 2 h at 37 degrees C. Trea...

Summary Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are ubiquitous and integral members of the heterogeneous class employed for fermented food dairy applications such as yoghurt products. LAB gram‐positive, non‐spore‐forming, non‐respiring but aerotolerant microorganisms that generally characterised by production lactic a key fermentation product. LAB, specifically Lb. bulgaricus , essential starter cultures ma...

Yoghurt feeding inhibits induced colon cancer in mice. Several studies showed the immunomodulatory effect of yoghurt which can explain this inhibition. It is possible that yoghurt bacteria can also affect gut flora enzymes related to colon carcinogenesis as reported for other probiotics in different animal tumours. The aim of this work was to evaluate the role of yoghurt starter bacteria and th...
