Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus is widely used in the production of yogurt and cheese. In this study, we present the complete genome sequence of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus ACA-DC 87 isolated from traditional Greek yogurt. Whole-genome analysis may reveal desirable technological traits of the strain for dairy fermentations.

Spacer region between 16S and 23 S rRNA genes of thirteen lactic acid bacteria strains from Burkina Faso fermented milk samples were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus fermentum, Streptococcus thermophilus, Pediococcus spp, Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp mesenteroides were identified. The Lactobacillus group was...

PepR1 from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp bulgaricus (Lb. bulgaricus) is involved in biosynthesis regulation of the prolidase PepQ. In this paper, we demonstrated that Lb. bulgaricus PepR1 biosynthesis is not constitutive like those of several bacteria but is auto-regulated and depends on the glucose concentration of the culture medium. We propose a model for PepQ regulation by PepR1.

this paper investigates the removal of iron and zinc from aqueous solution with dairy wastewaterin three different biomasses such as lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus (lb-12), streptococcus thermophillus(stm-7) and a combination of both this bacteria culture (yc-380) and the optimization of removal efficiencyusing minitab program. a full 23 factorial design of experiments was applied to ...

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus are key factors in the fermentation process and the final quality of dairy products worldwide. This study was performed to investigate the effects of the proportions of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus isolated from traditionally fermented dairy products in China and Mongolia on ...

Two genes, pepQ and orfZ, encoding a prolidase and a prolidase-like protein, respectively, were cloned and characterized from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus. The identity of the pepQ and orfZ genes with the Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis prolidase gene (pepQ) was shown to be 98% and 60%, respectively. Both pepQ and orfZ were preceded by a putative promoter region. Northern...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are microorganisms that are believed to provide health benefits. Here, we isolated LAB from Indian fermented foods, such as traditional Yogurt and Dosa. LAB from Yogurt most significantly induced TNF-α and IL-1β production, whereas LAB from Dosa induced mild cytokine production. After 16S rRNA gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, a Yogurt-borne lactic acid bacte...

in the present study, the effects of milk supplementation on growth and viability of yogurt (streptococcus thermophilus and lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) and probiotic bacteria (lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacteria) were studied during yogurt production and 33 days of refrigerated storage. the incubation time to reach ph = 4.5 was greatly affected by the addition of milk ...

Elevated blood cholesterol is an important risk factor associated with atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Several studies have reported a decrease in serum cholesterol during the consumption of large doses of fermented dairy products or lactobacillus strains. The proposed mechanism for this effect is the removal or assimilation of intestinal cholesterol by the bacteria, reducing choles...
