This study aims to determine whether Lactobacillus casei (L. casei) could relieve liver injury in piglets challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Piglets were randomly allocated into one of the three groups: control, LPS, and L. casei. The control and LPS groups were fed a corn- and soybean meal-based diet, whereas the L. casei group was fed the basal diet supplemented with 6 × 10⁶ cfu/g L. c...

materials and methods s. sonnei and s .flexneri was identified by common microbiological and serological methods. antibiogram with 18 antibiotics were tested for 34 positive cultures by disc diffusion method. the samples showed considerable resistance to antibiotics. antimicrobial effects of cfcs were tested against s. sonnei and s. flexneri by agar-well assay and broth micro dilution methods. ...

the objective of this study ware to investigate the effects of different doses of origanum vulgare on the growth of lactobacillus casei and lactobacillus paracasei (separated from iranian dairy products) in milk produced at one step. the product was then examined in terms of ph, acidity and microbe counting during incubator setting period. in the milk samples with lactobacillus casei, the contr...

In this study, the effects of orally administered viable Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain YIT9029 on the immunity parameters of Wistar and Brown Norway rats were examined. For this purpose, we used the Trichinella spiralis host resistance model. Two weeks before and during T. spiralis infection, rats were fed 10(9) viable L. casei bacteria 5 days per week. The T. spiralis-specific delayed-typ...

We examined the effect of a probiotic strain, Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota, on cytokine production and natural killer (NK) cell activity in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC). The cellular mechanisms of immunoregulation by L. casei strain Shirota were also investigated. L. casei strain Shirota stimulated PBMNC to secrete interleukin-12 (IL-12), gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), ...
