Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus LBB.B5 originates from homemade Bulgarian yogurt and was selected for its ability to form a strong association with Streptococcus thermophilus The genome sequence will facilitate elucidating the genetic background behind the contribution of LBB.B5 to the taste and aroma of yogurt and its exceptional protocooperation with S. thermophilus.

glutamate decarboxylase enzyme produces γ-aminobutyric acid (gaba) in a non-reversible decarboxylation reaction of glutamate. gaba is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the brain and it is also present at high concentration in other organs such as pancreatic islets. gaba has effects on blood pressure, diabetes, inflammation, sleeplessness and depression. some bacteria such as lactobacillus ...

In the present work, the effect of milk supplementation on viability of yogurt bacteria (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) and probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacteria) was studied during yogurt manufacture and thirty three days storage. Incubation time to reach pH value of 4.5 was greatly affected by the addition of casein fract...

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 work, the effect of milk supplementation on viability of yogurt bacteria (streptococcus thermophilus and lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus) and probiotic bacteria (lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacteria) was studied during yogurt manufacture and thirty three days storage. incubation time to reach ph value of 4.5 was greatly affected by the addition of casein fract...

Probiotics are bacteria that are commercially available as dietary supplements. One of the important properties of probiotics is their ability to survive in the intestine. Recent evidence has identified kynurenic acid (KYNA) as a bactericidal constituent of intestinal fluid. These data led us to study the influence of KYNA on the viability of selected probiotics. We found that KYNA supported th...

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus is one of the most widely used starter culture strains in industrial fermented dairy manufacture. It is also common in naturally fermented dairy foods made using traditional methods. The subsp. bulgaricus strains found in naturally fermented foods may be useful for improving current industrial starter cultures; however, little is known regarding its g...

AIM The aim of the study was to assess the impact of the long-term use of the composite probiotics in patients after restorative proctocolectomy. METHOD Forty-three patients (20 females and 23 males, aged 21 to 68 years) after restorative proctocolectomy were included in the study. After randomization patients were divided into placebo group and treatment group with oral intake of probiotic c...

The Lactobacillus acidophilus homology group comprises Gram-positive species that include L. acidophilus, L. helveticus, L. crispatus, L. amylovorus, L. gallinarum, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, L. gasseri, and L. johnsonii. While these bacteria are closely related, they have varied ecological lifestyles as dairy and food fermenters, allochthonous probiotics, or autochthonous commensals of ...

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, which has been widely used as a fermented milk starter, is a type of probiotic, and certain strains are able to produce exopolysaccharide (EPS). EPS produced from L. bulgaricus contributes to the physical and biological function of dairy products by regulating immune response, and this tendency seems to place EPS with acidic groups. To date, six type...
