background: dominant lactic acid bacteria (lab) originally isolated from traditional non-dairy fermented foods, may harbor unique characteristics such as probiotic properties. in this research, probiotic potential of dominant lab isolated from pickled garlic was studied. methods: after isolation of dominant lab from pickled garlic produced with apple cider vinegar, the isolate was identified by...

An assay technique, homogeneous enzyme immunoassay, is described for the quantitative determination of morphine derivatives in biological fluids. An enzyme is labeled with morphine. When the enzymelabeled morphine is bound by antimorphine antibodies, the enzyme is rendered inactive. Free morphine competes with enzyme-morphine for antibody binding sites preventing inhibition of enzyme activity. ...

Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized peptides made by bacteria that inhibit the growth of similar or closely related bacterial strains. Class II bacteriocins a class heat-resistant and do not undergo extensive posttranslational modification. In lactic acid (LAB), widely distributed, some them have been successfully applied as food preservatives antibiotic alternatives. can be further divide...
