Abstract
The study aimed to develop plant-based model snacks that are high in fibre, contain probiotic bacteria and are convenient for long-term storage. The research focused on selecting a suitable form of probiotic bacteria (active biomass, microencapsulated, freeze-dried), inoculation method (in the base mass or in the filling of a snack) and appropriate storage conditions (4°Cor 20 °C). The potential synbiotic properties were evaluated. The microencapsulated bacteria had the highest survival rate at 4 °C, while the freeze-dried bacteria showed better survival rates at 20 °C. Probiotics had a higher survival rate when enclosed inside snacks with a low water activity (aw = 0.27) peanut butter filling than in snacks without filling (aw = 0.53). Enclosing the probiotics in a low aw filling ensures their survival at ambient temperature for 5 months at a count higher than 6 log CFU/g. The snacks exhibited high antioxidant capacity (average 300 mg ascorbic acid equivalent/100 g), polyphenol content (average 357 mg gallic acid equivalent/100 g) and high fibre content (average 10.2 g/100 g). The sensory analysis showed a high overall quality of the snacks (average 7.1/10 of the conventional units). Furthermore, after six months of storage, significant changes were observed in the antioxidant properties, polyphenol content and texture of the snacks, while their sensory quality remained unchanged. Moreover, a potential synbiotic effect was observed. The method used to assess bacterial growth indicated significantly higher values in the model snacks compared to a control sample. Therefore, this study has effectively addressed the gap in knowledge regarding the survival of probiotics in snacks of this nature.

Abstract
In this study, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolation from fermented foods and molecular identification using magnetic bead technology were performed. And then exopolysaccharide (EPS) production possibility was tested in agar medium, and the positive ones were selected for the next step. The bacteria that could produce higher carbohydrate level were grown in MRS medium fortified with whey and pumpkin waste. In our study, 19 different LAB species were identified from fermented products collected from different places in Hatay (Türkiye) province. In molecular identification, universal primer pairs, p806R/p8FPL, and PEU7/DG74 were used for PCR amplification. After that, PCR products purified using paramagnetic bead technology were sequenced by the Sanger sequencing method. The dominant species, 23.8% of the isolates, were identified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. As a technological property of LAB, exopolysaccharide production capability of forty-two LAB isolate was tested in agar medium, and after eleven isolates were selected as positive. Two LAB (Latilactobacillus curvatus SHA2-3B and Loigolactobacillus coryniformis SHA6-3B) had higher EPS production capability when they were grown in MRS broth fortified with pumpkin waste and whey. The highest EPS content (1750 mg/L glucose equivalent) was determined in Loigolactobacillus coryniformis SHA6-3B grown in MRS broth fortified with 10% pumpkin waste. Besides the produced EPS samples were validated with FTIR and SEM methods.

Abstract
In this study, Lactobacillus fermentum DM7-6 (DM7-6), Lactobacillus plantarum DM9-7 (DM9-7), and Bacillus subtilis YF9-4 (YF9-4) were isolated from traditional fermented products. The survival rate of DM7-6, DM9-7, and YF9-4 in simulated intestinal gastric fluid reached 61.29%, 44.82%, and 55.26%, respectively. These strains had inhibition ability against common pathogens, and the inhibition zone diameters were more than 7 mm. Antioxidant tests showed these strains had good scavenging capacity for superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical and DPPH, and the total reduction capacity reached 65%. Then DM7-6, DM9-7 and YF9-4 were fed to broilers to study the effects on antioxidant capacity, immune response, biochemical indices, tissue morphology, and gut microbiota. 180 healthy broilers were allocated randomly into six experimental groups. SOD, GSH-Px, and T-AOC in broilers serum were detected, and the results showed probiotics significantly improve antioxidant capacity compared to CK group, while antibiotics showed the opposite result. Besides, IgA, IgM, IgG, TNF-α, and IL-2 indicated it could significantly improve immunity by adding probiotics in broilers diets. However, antibiotics reduced immunoglobulin levels and enhanced inflammation index. Biochemical indicators and tissue morphology showed probiotics had a protective effect on metabolic organs. Gut microbiota analysis proved antibiotics could significantly decrease microbial community diversity and increase the proportion of opportunistic pathogens, while probiotics could improve the diversity of gut microbiota and promote the colonization of beneficial microorganisms. In summary, probiotics DM7-6, DM9-7, and YF9-4 can improve the broiler's health by improving antioxidant capacity and immune function, regulating gut microbiota, and can be used as alternative probiotics for antibiotics-free breeding of broilers.

Abstract
This study developed and evaluated chitosan-sodium alginate capsules containing the probiotic Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG using extrusion and emulsification techniques. The encapsulated L. rhamnosus GG cells were also evaluated for technological and probiotic-related physiological functionalities, as well as when incorporated in UHT and powdered milk. Extrusion (86.01 ± 1.26%) and emulsification (74.43 ± 1.41%) encapsulation techniques showed high encapsulation efficiency and high survival rates of L. rhamnosus GG during 28 days of refrigeration and room temperature storage, especially emulsification capsules (> 81%). The encapsulated L. rhamnosus GG cells showed high survival rates during exposure to simulated gastrointestinal conditions (72.65 ± 1.09-114.15 ± 0.44%). L. rhamnosus GG encapsulated by extrusion and emulsification performed satisfactorily in probiotic-related physiological (pH and bile salts tolerance) and technological properties (positive proteolytic activity, diacetyl and exopolysaccharides production, high NaCl tolerance (> 91%), besides having high heat tolerance (> 76%)). L. rhamnosus GG in extrusion and emulsification capsules had high survival rates (> 89%) and did not significantly affect physicochemical parameters in Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) and powdered milk during storage. The results demonstrate that L. rhamnosus GG can be successfully encapsulated with alginate-chitosan as a protective material through extrusion and emulsification techniques. UHT and powdered milk could serve as appropriate delivery systems to increase the intake of this encapsulated probiotic by consumers.

Abstract
During the last years, growing interest in the use of mare's milk in food production is observed. The subject of the study was to evaluate the feasibility of mare's milk for the production of yogurt ice cream and synbiotic ice cream. Four variants of mare's milk ice cream were developed: ice cream with yogurt bacteria without inulin (YO) and with 2% of inulin (YO+I), synbiotic ice cream with 2% inulin and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (LCR+I) and with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LP+I). Ice creams were enriched with inulin in order to evaluate its influence on the viability of LAB and on the product quality. Physicochemical, textural and sensory analyses were performed. Count of viable bacteria cells was also evaluated. Obtained ice creams did not differ in terms of protein, fat and total solids content (1.85-1.91%, 7.33-7.58% and 24.66-26.96% respectively), but differed in acidity. Ice cream YO, the only one without inulin, had the highest acidity, what suggests that inulin decrease this parameter. Regardless the type of LAB starter culture and inulin addition, samples had the same range of overrun (35.20-44.03%) and melting rate (73.49-79.87%). However the variant of ice cream influenced textural properties and colour parameters. All obtained mare's milk ice creams had high overall sensory quality. It was noticed, that ice cream with inulin had higher count of LAB (>7logCFU/g), than sample without inulin (>6logCFU/g). In conclusion, mare's milk may be considered as feasible raw material for yogurt ice cream and synbiotic ice cream production.

Abstract
Limosilactobacillus fermentum (L. fermentum) is widely used in industrial food fermentations, and its probiotic and health-promoting roles attracted much attention in the past decades. In this work, the probiotic potential of L. fermentum 664 isolated from Chinese fermented pickles was assessed. In addition, the anti-inflammatory properties and mechanisms were investigated using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Results indicated that L. fermentum 664 demonstrated excellent acid and bile salt tolerance, adhesion capability, antimicrobial activity, and safety profile. L. fermentum 664 downregulated the release of inflammatory mediators, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) stimulated with LPS. Moreover, L fermentum 664 inhibited the nuclear translocation of the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) induced by LPS. This action was associated with a reduction in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and an enhanced expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein. Additionally, whole genome sequencing indicated that L. fermentum 664 contained genes that encode proteins with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions, including Cytochrome bd ubiquinol oxidase subunit I (CydA), Cytochrome bd ubiquinol oxidase subunit II (CydB), and NAD(P)H dehydrogenase quinone 1 (NQO1). In conclusion, our study suggested that L. fermentum 664 has the potential to become a probiotic and might be a promising strategy for the prevention of inflammation.

Abstract
Introduction Kefir beverage has beneficial microorganisms that have health-giving properties; therefore, they have a good potential to be probiotic. This study evaluated the probiotic potential, technological, and safety characteristics of Enterococcus faecalis, Lactococcus lactis, and Pichia fermentans isolated from traditional kefir beverages. Method First, isolates were evaluated in terms of resistance to acid, alkali, bile salts, trypsin, and pepsin of the gastrointestinal tract. The auto-aggregation and co-aggregation ability of isolates were measured using spectrophotometry. Antimicrobial activities were assayed against important food-borne pathogens using the agar well diffusion method. Moreover, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production was investigated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Result Among the isolates, P. fermentans had an 85% total survival rate, but its amount reached below 6 log CFU/ml which is considered non-resistant, and it showed the highest auto-aggregation (74.67%). Moreover, only L. lactis showed antimicrobial activity and had the highest co-aggregation with E. coli PTCC 1338 (54.33%) and L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644 (78%). Finally, an evaluation of the technological and safety characteristics of the strains showed that the strains produced GABA and were safe. Discussion Although the isolates were not resistant to the gastrointestinal tract, their supernatant contained valuable natural compounds, including antioxidants, GABA, and antimicrobials, which can be used to produce functional foods and medicines. In addition, other approaches, such as increasing the initial number of strains, using foods as carriers of isolates, and encapsulating the isolates, can effectively increase the survivability of isolates in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
The intricate balance of intestinal microbiota is significantly influenced by the pivotal role of indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB). These LAB not only contribute to antimicrobial activity and enhance animal health and productivity but also serve as defense against intestinal infections. In the present study, the probiotic potential of LAB strains isolated from various intestinal sections of adult and young guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) was comprehensively assessed. Strains belonging to the genera Ligilactobacillus, Weissella, Enterococcus, and Limosilactobacillus were also identified. The antibacterial activities of the LAB strains against Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus were quantified. Exopolysaccharide production, adherence capacity, antibiotic resistance, and bile salt tolerance (0.15 %, 0.30 %, and 0.45 %) of LAB were quantified. Further analyses focused on the effects of pH (2.9, 5.0, 6.4, and 7.4), temperature (40, 50, and 60 °C) and NaCl concentrations (3.5 % and 6.5 % w/v) on LAB growth. Strains GCI9 and GDE10 (Ligilactobacillus salivarius), isolated from the cecum and intestine of guinea pigs, exhibited significant antimicrobial activity against S. typhimurium, E. coli and S. aureus. Remarkable adherence capacity to porcine gastric mucin was demonstrated by L. salivarius strains, specifically ACI1, GCI9, and GDE10, with the highest exopolysaccharide levels produced by ACI1 and GCI9 (1.71 and 1.76 mg/mL, respectively). The probiotic potential was further underscored by remarkable bile salt tolerance, especially in strain GDE10, and substantial exopolysaccharide production. These strains displayed notable adaptability to varying environmental conditions, including NaCl concentrations at 3.5 % and 6.5 %, temperatures ranging from 40 to 60 °C, and pH levels of 2.9, 5.0, 6.4, and 7.4. This comprehensive assessment of the probiotic properties of L. salivarius strains, particularly ACI1, GCI9, and GDE10, shows promise for the development of probiotic formulations aimed at enhancing the intestinal health of guinea pigs.

Abstract
Milk is a source of many valuable nutrients, including minerals, vitamins and proteins, with an important role in adult health. Milk and dairy products naturally containing or with added probiotics have healthy functional food properties. Indeed, probiotic microorganisms, which beneficially affect the host by improving the intestinal microbial balance, are recognized to affect the immune response and other important biological functions. In addition to macronutrients and micronutrients, biologically active peptides (BPAs) have been identified within the amino acid sequences of native milk proteins; hydrolytic reactions, such as those catalyzed by digestive enzymes, result in their release. BPAs directly influence numerous biological pathways evoking behavioral, gastrointestinal, hormonal, immunological, neurological, and nutritional responses. The addition of BPAs to food products or application in drug development could improve consumer health and provide therapeutic strategies for the treatment or prevention of diseases. Herein, we review the scientific literature on probiotics, BPAs in milk and dairy products, with special attention to milk from minor species (buffalo, sheep, camel, yak, donkey, etc.); safety assessment will be also taken into consideration. Finally, recent advances in foodomics to unveil the probiotic role in human health and discover novel active peptide sequences will also be provided.

Abstract
Natural preservatives are causing a rethinking of current preservation means. As a sweetener resource, exploitation of Stevia rebaudiana leaves (SRLs) is still restricted due to human conventional cognition. Herein, Lactobacillus plantarum fermented SRLs containing diverse free secondary metabolites derived from microbial deglycosylation and bioenzymatic decomposition were investigated. The apparent resistance to typical foodborne bacteria (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomoas aeruginosa, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) by fermented SRLs and their extracts were validated. The metabolite diversity and in-depth organic solvent extraction gave the possibilities for better antimicrobial actions, anti-HepG2/SGC-7901 cells in vitro in contrast with aqueous extract of unfermented SRLs. Crucially, compound identification and attribution revealed that fermentation products may be maximally contributing to antimicrobial and antitumor mechanisms rather than intrinsic plant and/or microbial components. Additionally, pork sausage models with 15 g/kg ethyl acetate extract as a preservative candidate presented preferred storage characteristics (21 days and 37 °C) compared to those without ethyl acetate extract, e.g. the minimal total plate count (3.86 ± 0.27 log CFU/g), peroxsignide value (8.02 ± 0.92 meq/kg), and acid value (2.01 ± 0.04 (KOH)/(mg/g)).

Golnari M, Bahrami N, Milanian Z, Rabbani Khorasgani M, Asadollahi MA, Shafiei R, Fatemi SSA. Isolation and characterization of novel Bacillus strains with superior probiotic potential: comparative analysis and safety evaluation. Sci Rep 2024; 14:1457. [PMID: 38228716 PMCID: PMC10791968 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-51823-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite the current use of some Bacillus spp. as probiotics, looking for and introducing new efficient and safe potential probiotic strains is one of the most important topics in both microbiology and food industry. This study aimed to isolate, identify, and evaluate the probiotic characteristics and safety of some Bacillus spp. from natural sources. Thirty-six spore-forming, Gram-positive, and catalase-positive Bacillus isolates were identified in 54 samples of soil, feces and dairy products. Bacterial identification was performed using 16S rDNA sequencing. To evaluate the probiotic potential of isolates, the resistance of bacterial cells to simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) conditions, the presence of enterotoxin genes, their susceptibility to antibiotics, antimicrobial and hemolytic activities and biochemical profiles were investigated. The results revealed that eight sporulating Bacillus spp. isolates fulfilled all tested probiotic criteria. They showed a high growth rate, non-hemolytic and lecithinase activity, and resistance to simulated GIT conditions. These strains exhibited broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria. In addition, they did not exhibit antibacterial resistance to the 12 tested antibiotics. The results of this study suggest that these isolates can be considered as candidates for functional foods and as safe additives to improve diet quality.

Investigating the antidiabetic efficacy of dairy-derived Lacticaseibacillus paracasei probiotic strains: modulating α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzyme functions. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1288487. [PMID: 38111646 PMCID: PMC10725979 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1288487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
The current study aims to evaluate and characterize the probiotic andantidiabetic properties of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) obtained from milk and other dairy-based products. The strains were tested physiologically, biochemically, and molecularly. Based on biochemical tests and 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing, all three isolates RAMULAB18, RAMULAB19, and RAMULAB53 were identified as Lacticaseibacillus paracasei with homology similarity of more than 98%. The inhibitory potential of each isolate against carbohydrate hydrolysis enzymes (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) was assessed using three different preparations of RAMULAB (RL) isolates: the supernatant (RL-CS), intact cells (RL-IC), and cell-free extraction (RL-CE). Additionally, the isolate was evaluated for its antioxidant activity against free radicals (DPPH and ABTS). The strain's RL-CS, RL-CE, and RL-IC inhibited α-amylase (17.25 to 55.42%), α-glucosidase (15.08-59.55%), DPPH (56.42-87.45%), and ABTS (46.35-78.45%) enzymes differently. With the highest survival rate (>98%) toward tolerance to gastrointestinal conditions, hydrophobicity (>42.18%), aggregation (>74.21%), as well as attachment to an individual's colorectal cancer cell line (HT-29) (>64.98%), human buccal and chicken crop epithelial cells, all three isolates exhibited extensive results. All three isolates exhibited high resistance toward antibiotics (methicillin, kanamycin, cefixime, and vancomycin), and other assays such as antibacterial, DNase, hemolytic, and gelatinase were performed for safety assessment. Results suggest that the LAB described are valuable candidates for their significant health benefits and that they can also be utilized as a beginning or bio-preservative tradition in the food, agriculture, and pharmaceutical sectors. The LAB isolates are excellent in vitro probiotic applicants and yet additional in vivo testing is required.

Genomic and phenotypic-based safety assessment and probiotic properties of Streptococcus thermophilus FUA329, a urolithin A-producing bacterium of human milk origin. Genomics 2023; 115:110724. [PMID: 37820823 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2023.110724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
Streptococcus thermophilus FUA329, a urolithin A-producing bacterium, is isolated from human breast milk. The complete genome sequence of FUA329 did not contain any plasmids and at least 20 proteins were related to extreme environment resistance. Phenotypic assay results demonstrated that FUA329 was susceptible to 12 kinds of antibiotics and did not exhibit any hemolytic or nitrate reductase activity. Three free radical scavenging assays revealed that FUA329 have high antioxidant capability. FUA329 exhibited a cell surface hydrophobicity of 52.58 ± 1.17% and an auto-aggregation rate of 18.69 ± 2.48%. Moreover, FUA329 demonstrated a survival rate of over 60% in strong acid and bile salt environments, indicating that FUA329 may be stable colonization in the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, we firstly found 3 potential proteins and 11 potential genes of transforming ellagic acid to urolithins in FUA329 genome. The above results indicate that FUA329 has credible safety and probiotic properties, as well as the potential to be developed as a new generation of urolithin A-producing probiotics.

Abstract
Lactic Acid Bacteria play an important role in the milk fermentation processes of traditional cheeses and have become an important target for the development of novel cheese cultures because of their ability to confer health benefits. This study aimed to evaluate the probiotic potential of 12 Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) strains previously isolated and molecularly identified from an artisanal Colombian Double-Cream Cheese. Probiotic properties, including safety (hemolysis and sensibility to antibiotics), pH and bile salt tolerance, auto-aggregation, cell surface hydrophobicity, antibacterial activity, and exopolysaccharide production, were examined. None of the strains were hemolytic, and Pediococcus (16, 18) and Lactobacillus (28, 29) were found to be sensitive to all antibiotics. Moreover, all the strains tolerated pH (3.0, 6.5 and 8.0) and bile salt conditions (0.3, 0.6 and 1.0 % w/v). Pediococcus pentosaceus (16), Leuconostoc citreum (17), Pediococcus acidilactici (18), Enterococcus faecium (21,22), Enterococcus faecalis (24) and Limosilactobacillus fermentum (29) exhibited medium autoaggregation and affinity to chloroform. Six of the strains exhibited a ropy exopolysaccharide phenotype. Antibacterial activity against foodborne pathogens, Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 14028, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19111, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, was found to be strain dependent, with the strains 16, 18, 21, 26, 28 and 29 presenting a higher inhibition (>4 mm) against all of them. According to Principal Component Analysis, P. pentosaceus (16), Leu. mesenteroides (26), L. casei (28), L. fermentum (29), and E. faecium (21) showed strong probiotic properties. Our findings suggest that five strains out of the 12 sampled strains are potential probiotics that could be used in the processing of traditional dairy products on an industrial scale to improve their quality.

Abstract
In Iran, dairy-based fermented foods, like yogurt, cheese, fermented milk, buttermilk, kashk, butter, and Doogh are essential dietary components. Doogh is typically made using fermented yogurt or buttermilk. However, a literature review revealed a lack of research on extracting probiotics from Doogh during processing. As dairy products contain lactic acid bacteria, the aim was to isolate and identify them using culture and PCR-sequencing techniques. Samples of traditional Doogh were collected throughout the Chaharmahal Bakhtiari province of Iran. A specific number of strains have been isolated and among them, the strain LB12 was selected for further characterization based on its probiotic properties. Probiotic properties like adhesion capability, antagonistic activity, resistance to the simulated stomach and intestinal fluids, pH, and bile salt were assessed according to National Standard ISO 19459 of Iran. The LB12 strain was identified as Lacticaseibacillus paracasei by partial 16 rDNA sequence analysis. This L. paracasei strain demonstrated its in vitro resilience to stomach conditions with 58.04% survival at pH 3 and more than 50% resistance to different bile salt concentrations. L. paracasei LB12 showed a cell surface hydrophobicity of 38.18% and a 6.2 log CFU/ml resistance to simulated gastric and intestinal fluids, and a rate of auto- and co-aggregation of 15% and 22%, respectively. L. parasei LB12 showed also a moderate adhesion to HT-29 cell line. In conclusion, L. paracasei LB12 is considered a promising potential probiotic suitable for the development of food supplement and pharmaceutical products.

Abstract
The subject of this study was to screen lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with pathogen translocation inhibition and investigate the potential inhibition mechanism of it. Pathogens colonized in the intestine could cross the intestinal barrier to access blood circulation, causing severe complications. This study aimed to screen LAB with favorable inhibitory effects on the translocation of enterinvasive Escherichia coli CMCC44305 (E. coli) and Cronobacter sakazakii CMCC45401 (C. sakazakii), which were two common intestinal opportunistic pathogens. After an elaborate screening procedure including adhesion, antibacterial, and translocation assay, Limosilactobacillus fermentum NCU003089 (L. fermentum NCU3089) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NCU0011261 (L. plantarum NCU1261) were found to inhibit 58.38% and 66.85% of pathogen translocation, respectively. Subsequently, LAB pre-treatment suppressed the decline in TEER of Caco-2 monolayers caused by pathogens. Meanwhile, L. fermentum NCU3089 significantly inhibited claudin-1, ZO-1, and JAM-1 degradation caused by E. coli, and L. plantarum NCU1261 markedly reduced claudin-1 degradation caused by C. sakazakii. Also, the two LAB strains significantly decreased TNF-α level. In addition, L. fermentum NCU3089 but not L. plantarum NCU1261 tolerated well in the gastrointestinal fluids, and they were both sensitive or intermediate to nine common clinical antibiotics without hemolytic activity. In short, the two LAB strains could inhibit pathogen translocation by competing for adhesion sites, secreting antibacterial substances, reducing inflammatory cytokines levels, and maintaining intestinal barrier integrity. This study provided a feasible solution to prevent pathogen infection and translocation, and the two LAB strains were safe and had potential in food and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
The considerable flexibility of cancerous cells to escape from chemical and biological drugs makes it clear that much is to be done to control and eliminate such cells. Probiotic bacteria, in this regard, have shown promising performance. In this study, we isolated and characterized lactic acid bacteria from traditional cheese. Then we evaluated their activity against doxorubicin-resistant MCF-7 cells (MCF-7/DOX) through MTT assay, Annexin V/PI protocol, real-time PCR, and western blotting. Among the isolates, one strain with more than 97% similarity with Pediococcus acidilactici showed considerable probiotics properties. Low pH, high bile salts, and NaCl could not significantly affect this strain while it was susceptible to antibiotics. Also, it had a potent antibacterial activity. Besides, the cell-free supernatant of this strain (CFS) significantly reduced the viability of MCF-7 and MCF-7/DOX cancerous cells (to about 10% and 25%, respectively), while it was safe for normal cells. Also, we found that CFS could regulate the Bax/Bcl-2 at mRNA and protein levels to induce apoptosis in drug-resistant cells. We determined 75% early apoptosis, 10% late apoptosis, and 15% necrosis in the cells treated with the CFS. These findings can accelerate the development of probiotics as promising alternative treatments to overcome drug-resistant cancers.

Abstract
The harmful effects of chemical preservatives are driving the need for natural ones. To meet this demand, probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from fermented oats in this study. The goals of this study were to separate and identify probiotic LAB from fermented oats, to determine how effective these LAB are at combating pathogenic microorganisms in vitro, and to investigate their preservative capacity by applying the bacterium's cell-free supernatant (CFS) to specific fruits and fruit juice. The isolated strain was identified as Lactobacillus plantarum DMR14 using morphological, biochemical, and molecular investigation. Antimicrobial, antibiofilm, anti-oxidant, pH tolerance, and antibiotic resistance assays were used to evaluate the strain's probiotic potential, showing that Lactobacillus plantarum DMR14 had the strongest antagonistic and anti-biofilm capacity against Shigella boydii. Furthermore, the bacteriocin-containing compounds, cell-free supernatant (CFS) of the LAB, were tested against three fruits and one fruit juice, with the cell-free supernatant (CFS) of the bacterium lengthening the shelf life of the fruits compared to the untreated ones. Furthermore, while the concentration of coliform bacteria decreased in the treated sugarcane juice, an increase in the concentration of lactic acid bacteria suggested that the strain may be used as a fruit preservative in food industries.

Zibaei-Rad A, Rahmati-Joneidabad M, Alizadeh Behbahani B, Taki M. Assessing the protection mechanisms on Enterobacter aerogenes ATCC 13048 by potentially probiotic strain Lacticaseibacillus casei XN18: An experimental and modeling study. Microb Pathog 2023:106177. [PMID: 37245632 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2023.106177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
In this study, Lacticaseibacillus casei XN18 had a remarkable resistant to simulated gastrointestinal conditions, hydrophobicity (38.60%), auto-aggregation (29.80%), co-aggregation (21.10%), adhesion (9.50%), anti-adhesion (24.40-36.90%), antioxidant activity (46.47%), cholesterol assimilation (41.10%), and antimicrobial effect on some pathogenic microorganisms. The modified double layer method, and Enterobacter aerogenes (inhibition zone (IZ) = 9.10 mm) and Listeria monocytogenes (IZ = 14.60 mm) were the most sensitive and resistant pathogens to the probiotic strain. The Lb. casei was sensitive to ciprofloxacin (IZ = 23 mm) and nitrofurantoin (IZ = 25.10 mm), semi-sensitive to imipenem (IZ = 18.80 mm), erythromycin (IZ = 16.90 mm), and chloramphenicol (IZ = 17.90 mm), and resistant to ampicillin (IZ = 9.60 mm) and nalidixic acid (IZ = 9.90 mm). The Lb. casei showed no haemolytic and DNase properties, and it could therefore be used for health-promoting purposes. In the next section, multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network (NN) and gaussian process regression (GPR) models with k-fold cross validation method were used for predicting the rate of probiotic viability based on three levels of pH and time. The results showed that GPR has the lowest error. The mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), root mean absolute error (RMSE) and coefficient of determination (R2) for GPR and MLP models were 1.49 ± 0.40, 0.21 ± 0.03, 0.98 ± 0.05 and 6.66 ± 0.98, 0.83 ± 0.23 0.82 ± 0.09, respectively. So, the GPR model can be reliably used as a useful method to predict the probiotic viability in similar cases.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the probiotic potential of Lactobacillus brevis G145 isolated from traditional Khiki cheese, analyzing pH and bile resistance, physicochemical properties of the strain (hydrophobicity, auto- and co-aggregation), cholesterol removal, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, adhesion ability to Caco-2 cells monolayer, and adhesion competition on Enterobacter aerogenes (competition, inhibition and replacement assays). Also, DNase, haemolytic activity, biogenic amine production and antibiotic susceptibility was investigated. L. brevis G145 was resistant to acidic pHs, bile salts, and simulated gastrointestinal conditions, and showed remarkable cell surface hydrophobicity (49.56%), co-aggregation (28.90%), auto-aggregation (34.10%), adhesion (9.40%), cholesterol removal (45.50%), and antioxidant (52.19%) properties. According to the results of well diffusion agar and disc diffusion agar tests, the highest and lowest inhibition zones were accounted for Staphylococcus aureus and Enterobacter aerogenes, respectively. The isolate did not show haemolytic, DNAse, and biogenic amine production properties. It was sensitive to antibiotics erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, and chloramphenicol, and semi-sensitive to imipenem, ampicillin, nalidixic acid, and nitrofurantoin. According to the findings of probiotic tests L. brevis G145 can be used as a in the food industry.

Abstract
Lacticaseibacillus paracasei is one of the probiotic bacteria widely identified from fermented foods. The application of L. paracasei is commonly used in dairy and non-dairy products. To investigate the probiotic properties of L. paracasei cells including their acid, pepsin, pancreatin, and bile salt tolerances; adhesion ability; antipathogen activity; and antibiotic susceptibility, L. paracasei cells were incorporated into skim milk and lyophilized by freeze drying. Freeze-dried probiotic cells were add to green banana powder and low moisture additive food matrices and a storage analysis of the product was performed. The result showed that L. paracasei cells possessed potentially beneficial probiotic properties to survive stress in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and functional abilities as an anti-enteropathogenic agent; they were also safe to use and displayed antibiotic properties. Furthermore, the probiotic freeze-drying technique preserved high probiotic cell survivability (1011 CFU/g). In term of prolonged storage (60 days), the powder product was stable and maintained probiotic survival (107 CFU/g) while excluding non-probiotic growth. In conclusion, L. paracasei displayed probiotic properties in the GIT and was judged to be a highly acceptable product as a probiotics–banana rehydrated beverage.

J Appl Microbiol 2022; 133:3201-3214. [PMID: 35957557 DOI: 10.1111/jam.15772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 10/15/2022]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was evaluating the probiotic potential and anti-biofilm activity of five lactobacilli strains which isolated and identified from an Iranian product. METHODS AND RESULTS Five lactobacilli strains which were isolated from Zabuli yellow kashk, were evaluated for the presence of probiotic properties, such as resistance to low pH, resistance to simulated gastrointestinal conditions, bile salt tolerance, hydrophobicity, auto- and co-aggregation. In addition, antimicrobial susceptibility, adherence to Caco-2 cells (human colon cancer cell line), anti-adhesion activity, ability against biofilm formation, and biofilm degradation of mentioned strains against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PTCC 1707 were assessed. All the strains tested showed acceptable characteristics, but Lactiplantibacillus plantarum TW57-4 appeared of particular interest. Some probiotic properties of this strain were similar and in some cases higher than the commercial probiotic strain Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (standard sample). Cholesterol assimilation and radical-scavenging activity of Lpb. plantarum TW57-4 were70.2 % and 62.3 %, respectively. The adhesion degree of Lpb. plantarum TW57-4 was 10.6 %. Applying competition and inhibition assay, this strain showed 55.3 % and 62.3 % of competition and inhibition activity in adhesion of P. aeruginosa PTCC 1707 to the intestinal cells, respectively. CONCLUSIONS According to the obtained results, it can be concluded that Lpb. plantarum TW57-4 strain can be used as a promising candidate for in-vivo studies with the aim of developing new probiotic starter cultures. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF STUDY The present study furthers our understanding of lactobacilli strains behavior after consumption to establish their beneficial effects.
