Abstract Dextran is an exopolysaccharide produces from bacteria that have been shown to be useful in the pharmaceutical and food industries. The goal of this study was screen capable producing dextran Thai fermented foods then maximize production. maximal amount produced by Lactobacillus fermentum OR1 isolated pickled mango juice 65 g/L after 20 h incubation at 30°C 200 rpm DMB2 Medium containi...

Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess the antithrombotic properties of different strains of orally available antithrombotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Research Methods & Procedures: Antithrombotic activity, antiplatelet reactivity and/or thrombolytic activity, were measured in seven strains of LAB and LAB cell-free-extracts (LAB filtrates) using the shear-induced platelet react...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have the potential to degrade intestinal oxalate and this is increasingly being studied as a promising probiotic solution to manage kidney stone disease. In this study, oxalate degrading LAB were isolated from human faeces and south Indian fermented foods, subsequently assessed for potential probiotic property in vitro and in vivo. Based on preliminary characteristics...

abstract- lactic acid bacteria are commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract of various endothermic animals and humans, in milk, dairy and seafood products and on some plant surfaces. the aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of isolated lactic acid bacteria from intestines of narrow-barred spanish mackerel (scomberomorus commerson) on listeria innocua growth. five strai...

Vital pollinators whose role in ecosystems can hardly be overestimated, honeybees suffer from numerous illnesses, among which varroatosis and nosemosis seem most dangerous. Unfortunately, there is no cure that could resolve these grave honeybee health problems. Therefore, a great number of various kinds of diet supplements to help combat these illnesses are recommended for honeybee feeding. The...

Lactobacillus reuteri is a heterofermentative lactic acid bacterium that naturally inhabits the gut of humans and other animals. The probiotic effects of L. reuteri have been proposed to be largely associated with the production of the broad-spectrum antimicrobial compound reuterin during anaerobic metabolism of glycerol. We determined the complete genome sequences of the reuterin-producing L. ...

Nineteen strains of Lactobacillus isolated from goat's milk from farms in north-west of Algeria were characterized. Isolates were identified by phenotypic, physiological and genotypic methods and some of their important technological properties were studied. Phenotypic characterization was carried out by studying physiological, morphological characteristics and carbohydrate fermentation pattern...

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...

A new real-time PCR assay was successfully developed using a TaqMan fluorescence probe for specific detection and enumeration of a novel bacterium, Lactobacillus thermotolerans, in chicken feces. The specific primers and probe were designed based on the L. thermotolerans 16S rRNA gene sequences, and these sequences were compared to those of all available 16S rRNA genes in the GenBank database. ...
