Abstract
This study systematically investigated the effects of stress conditions including temperature, pH, H2O2, NaCl, antibiotics on the production and in vitro cholesterol-lowering activity of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) synthetized by Schleiferilactobacillus harbinensis Z171. Additionally, the influences of the optimal stress condition combined with different carbon sources on EPS production were examined, shedding light on the structural characteristics, physicochemical properties and bioactivities of EPSs. The results demonstrated that the EPS produced under H2O2 stress was optimal and presented excellent resistance to simulated gastric juice and α-amylase. Three main fractions, denoted as G-EPS1, F-EPS1 and S-EPS1, were isolated by cellulose DEAE-52 chromatography from crude EPSs synthetized using glucose, fructose and sucrose as carbon sources, respectively. Among them, F-EPS1 possessed the highest cholesterol-lowering, antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities, with the highest molecular weight 91.03 kDa, largest particle size 40.14 nm and apparent viscosity 288.2 mPa·s. Three EPSs exhibited irregular sheet-like and granular structures with good thermal stability. Structural characterization of F-EPS1a (a purified fraction from F-EPS1) revealed that it was a mannan mainly composed of →2)-α-D-Manp-(1→, →3)-α-Manp-(1→ and →2,6)-α-D-Manp-(1→ with branch chains containing α-D-Manp-(1→. F-EPS1a has more potential to be a natural cholesterol-lowering, hypoglycemic and antioxidant supplements in the food industry.

Abstract
Based on the adhesion and surface properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM, five common polyphenols in fruits and vegetables, including resveratrol, epicatechin, quercetin, hesperidin, and caffeic acid, were screened, and the reasons for resveratrol promoting adhesion were systematically explained. The results showed that resveratrol could significantly enhance NCFM adhesion to mucin (1.73 fold), followed by epicatechin (1.47 fold), caffeic acid (1.30 fold), and hesperidin (0.99 fold), while quercetin had a certain degree of inhibition (0.84 fold). The effects of these polyphenols on surface hydrophobicity and auto-aggregation of NCFM were consistent with adhesion results. Then, how resveratrol promotes NCFM adhesion was further explored. The results of the proteomic analysis showed that resveratrol changed the surface layer proteins of NCFM, involving 4 up-regulated proteins and 12 down-regulated proteins. In addition, resveratrol promoted the expression of mucin genes and the glycosylation of mucins on the HT-29 cell surface. Our results indicate that resveratrol changes the surface layer proteins of NCFM to modify surface properties and adhere to mucins. Meanwhile, resveratrol promotes expression and glycosylation of mucins in HT-29 cells. Our findings provide theoretical support for an in-depth explanation of the interaction among resveratrol, NCFM, and the HT-29 cells.

Genetic and technological diversity of Streptococcus thermophilus isolated from the Saint-Nectaire PDO cheese-producing area. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1245510.

Abstract
Streptococcus thermophilus is of major importance for cheese manufacturing to ensure rapid acidification; however, studies indicate that intensive use of commercial strains leads to the loss of typical characteristics of the products. To strengthen the link between the product and its geographical area and improve the sensory qualities of cheeses, cheese-producing protected designations of origin (PDO) are increasingly interested in the development of specific autochthonous starter cultures. The present study is therefore investigating the genetic and functional diversity of S. thermophilus strains isolated from a local cheese-producing PDO area. Putative S. thermophilus isolates were isolated and identified from milk collected in the Saint-Nectaire cheese-producing PDO area and from commercial starters. Whole genomes of isolates were sequenced, and a comparative analysis based on their pan-genome was carried out. Important functional properties were studied, including acidifying and proteolytic activities. Twenty-two isolates representative of the diversity of the geographical area and four commercial strains were selected for comparison. The resulting phylogenetic trees do not correspond to the geographical distribution of isolates. The clustering based on the pan-genome analysis indicates that isolates are divided into five distinct groups. A Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) functional annotation of the accessory genes indicates that the accessory gene contents of isolates are involved in different functional categories. High variability in acidifying activities and less diversity in proteolytic activities were also observed. These results indicate that high genetic and functional variabilities of the species S. thermophilus may arise from a small (1,800 km2) geographical area and may be exploited to meet demand for use as autochthonous starters.

Microorganisms 2023; 11:1696. [PMID: 37512869 PMCID: PMC10383130 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11071696] [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: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global and increasing threat to human health. Several genetic determinants of AMR are found in environmental reservoirs, including bacteria naturally associated with widely consumed fermented foods. Through the food chain, these bacteria can reach the gut, where horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can occur within the complex and populated microbial environment. Numerous studies on this topic have been published over the past decades, but a conclusive picture of the potential impact of the non-pathogenic foodborne microbial reservoir on the spread of AMR to human pathogens has not yet emerged. This review critically evaluates a comprehensive list of recent experimental studies reporting the isolation of AMR bacteria associated with fermented foods, focusing on those reporting HGT events, which represent the main driver of AMR spread within and between different bacterial communities. Overall, our analysis points to the methodological heterogeneity as a major weakness impairing determination or a causal relation between the presence of AMR determinants within the foodborne microbial reservoir and their transmission to human pathogens. The aim is therefore to highlight the main gaps and needs to better standardize future studies addressing the potential role of non-pathogenic bacteria in the spread of AMR.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28083285. [PMID: 37110519 PMCID: PMC10142741 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28083285] [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: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The probiotic features of Lactiplantibacillus (L.) pentosus and L. paraplantarum strains, endogenous in Cobrançosa table olives from northeast Portugal, were assessed in terms of functional properties and health benefits. Fourteen lactic acid bacteria strains were compared with Lacticaseibacillus casei from a commercial brand of probiotic yoghurt and L. pentosus B281 from Greek probiotic table olives, in attempts to select strains with higher probiotic performances than those references. For functional properties, the i53 and i106 strains, respectively, exhibited: 22.2 ± 2.2% and 23.0 ± 2.2% for Caco-2 cell adhesion capacity; 21.6 ± 7.8% and 21.5 ± 1.4% for hydrophobicity; 93.0 ± 3.0% and 88.5 ± 4.5% for autoaggregation ability by 24 h of incubation; and ability to co-aggregate with selected pathogens-from 29 to 40% to Gram+ (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212); and from 16 to 44% for Gram- (e.g., Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 25928). The strains proved to be resistant (i.e., halo zone ≤14 mm) to some antibiotics (e.g., vancomycin, ofloxacin, and streptomycin), but susceptible (i.e., halo zone ≥ 20 mm) to others (e.g., ampicillin and cephalothin). The strains exhibited health-beneficial enzymatic activity (such as acid phosphatase and naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase), but not health-harmful enzymatic activity (such as β-glucuronidase and N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase). Additionally, the antioxidant activity and cholesterol assimilation features, respectively, of the strains were 19.6 ± 2.8% and 77.5 ± 0.5% for i53, and 19.6 ± 1.8% and 72.2 ± 0.9% for i106. This study indicated that the addition of L. pentosus strains i53 and/or i106 to Cobrançosa table olives is likely to enhance the added value of the final product, in view of the associated potential benefits upon human health.

Abstract
Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans fermented with Bacillus subtilis var. natto. It is also a famous food in Thailand. Potential probiotics were screened from natto. Bacillus subtilis strain VN5 produced the most quantity of exopolysaccharide (EPS), so it was selected to study the properties of microbial EPS and probiotics. The Fourier transform infrared spectrometer or FT-IR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of carboxyl and hydroxyl groups. The patterns of FT-IR and levans are similar. The basic properties of probiotics were revealed. The 90% of VN5 strain resisted lysozyme within 30 min. VN5 survived under acidic conditions (pH 1-6), and the survival rate in 0.3%, 0.5%, and 1% bile solutions for 24 h was 100%. Unfortunately, VN5 did not inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhi. Gamma hemolysis was determined in VN5 strain. The finding on Bacillus subtilis strain (VN5) from natto paves the way to a high potential, useful new strain of probiotics.

Sheep Milk Symbiotic Ice Cream: Effect of Inulin and Apple Fiber on the Survival of Five Probiotic Bacterial Strains during Simulated In Vitro Digestion Conditions. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14214454. [PMID: 36364717 PMCID: PMC9655080 DOI: 10.3390/nu14214454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
We conducted a study to determine the survival of bacterial cells under in vitro digestion. For this purpose, ice cream mixes were prepared: control, with 4% inulin, 2.5% inulin and 1.5% apple fiber and 4% apple fiber. Each inoculum (pH = 4.60 ± 0.05), containing 9 log cfu g-1 bacteria, at 5% (w/w) was added to the ice cream mixes (Lacticaseibacilluscasei 431, Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei L-26, Lacticaseibacillusrhamnosus, Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis BB-12) and fermentation was carried out to pH 4.60 ± 0.05. The in vitro digestion method simulated the stages of digestion that occur in the mouth, stomach and small intestine under optimal controlled conditions (pH value, time and temperature). At each stage of digestion, the survival rate of probiotic bacteria was determined using the plate-deep method. As expected, in the oral stage, there was no significant reduction in the viability of the probiotic bacteria in any ice cream group compared to their content before digestion. In the stomach stage, Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis BB-12 strain had the highest viable counts (8.48 log cfu g-1) among the control samples. Furthermore, a 4% addition of inulin to ice cream with Bifidobacterium BB-12 increased gastric juice tolerance and limited strain reduction by only 16.7% compared to the number of bacterial cells before digestion. Regarding ice cream samples with Bifidobacterium BB-12, replacing part of the inulin with apple fiber resulted in increased survival at the stomach stage and a low reduction in the bacterial population of only 15.6% compared to samples before digestion. At the stomach stage, the positive effect of the addition of inulin and apple fiber was also demonstrated for ice cream samples with Lacticaseibacilluscasei 431 (9.47 log cfu g-1), Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5 (8.06 log cfu g-1) and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei L-26 (5.79 log cfu g-1). This study showed the highest sensitivity to simulated gastric stress for ice cream samples with Lacticaseibacillusrhamnosus (4.54 log cfu g-1). Our study confirmed that the 4% addition of inulin to ice cream increases the survival rate of L. casei and Bifidobacterium BB-12 in simulated intestinal juice with bile by 0.87 and 2.26 log cfu g-1, respectively. The highest viable count in the small intestine stage was observed in ice cream with L. acidophilus. The addition of inulin increased the survival of L. rhamnosus by 10.8% and Bifidobacterium BB-12 by about 22% under conditions of simulated in vitro digestion compared to their control samples. The survival rates of L. casei and L. paracasei were also highly affected by the 4% addition of apple fiber, where the increase under gastrointestinal passage conditions was determined to range from 7.86-11.26% compared to their control counterparts. In comparison, the lowest survival rate was found in the control ice cream with L. rhamnosus (47.40%). In our study at the intestinal stage, only five ice cream groups: a sample with 4% inulin and L. acidophilus, a control sample with Bifidobacterium BB12, a sample with 2.5% inulin and 1.5% apple fiber with Bifidobacterium BB12, a control sample with L. rhamnosus, a sample with 4% fiber and L. rhamnosus reported bacterial cell counts below 6 log cfu g-1 but higher than 5 log cfu g-1. However, in the remaining ice cream groups, viable counts of bacterial cells ranged from 6.11 to 8.88 log cfu g-1, ensuring a therapeutic effect. Studies have clearly indicated that sheep milk ice cream could provide a suitable matrix for the delivery of probiotics and prebiotics and contribute to intestinal homeostasis. The obtained results have an applicative character and may play an essential role in developing new functional sheep milk ice cream.
