Abstract
Enterococci are lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that play a role in the aroma formation, maturation, and sensory development of fermented foods such as meat and dairy products. They also contribute to the improvement of the extended shelf life of fermented foods by producing bacteriocin. The aim of this study was to isolate bacteriocin-producing LAB from sheep and goat colostrum, to characterize the bacteriocin-producing strains, and determine the technological properties of the strains. A total of 13 bacteriocin-producing LAB was isolated and identified as 11 Enterococcus mundtii and two Enterococcus faecium. The strains were found to be genetically different from each other by phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and random amplified polymorphic-DNA (RAPD-PCR). It has been determined that bacteriocins show activity in a wide pH range and are resistant to heat, lose their activity with proteolytic enzymes and α-amylase, but are resistant to detergents. While the presence of the munKS gene was detected in all of the strains, it was determined that E. faecium HC121.4, HC161.1, E. mundtii HC147.1, HC166.5, and HC166.8 strains contained multiple enterocin genes. Trisin-SDS-PAGE analysis revealed two active protein bands of approximately 5.1 and 5.5 kDa in E. faecium HC121.4 and one active protein band with a weight of approximately 4.96 kDa in other strains. E. mundtii strains and E. faecium HC161.1 were identified as mundticin KS producers, and E. faecium HC121.4 was defined as an enterocin A and B producer. Except for E. mundtii HC166.8, acid production of strains was found to be slow at 6 h and moderate at 24 h. None of them showed extracellular proteolytic and lipolytic activities. It was found that the strains had esterase, esterase lipase, leucine arylamidase, acid phosphatase, and naphthol-AS-Bl-phosphohydrolase activities, while protease activities were low and peptidase activities were high. In conclusion, bacteriocin producer 13 Enterococcus strains isolated from sheep and goat colostrum were found to have the potential to be included in starter culture combinations.

Characterization of Bacillus spp. isolated from the intestines of Rhynchocypris lagowskii as a potential probiotic and their effects on fish pathogens. Microb Pathog 2023; 180:106163. [PMID: 37209775 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2023.106163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/22/2023]
Abstract
Probiotics sourced from fish intestinal microbiota have a merit over other bacterial sources due to colonization ability and effective time. This study aimed to evaluate the bacilli isolated from the Rhynchocypris lagowskii intestines and their validity as a probiotic. Three isolates were selected (LSG 2-5, LSG 3-7, and LSG 3-8) and defined by morphological and 16S rRNA analysis as Bacillus velezensis, Bacillus aryabhattai, and Bacillus mojavensis, respectively. Results showed the strain tolerant abilities to gastrointestinal fluid, bile salt, pH, and temperature expotures. Additionally, all bacterial strains showed anti-pathogenic activity against at least four strains out of six tested pathogen strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Aeromonas hydrophila, Escherichia coli, Aeromonas veronii, Edwardsiella, and Aeromonas sobria). The bacterial strains also showed a high percentage of co-aggregation activity, more than 70%, with Aer. hydrophile, Staph. epidermidis, and Klebsiella aerogenes. At the same time, the results of competition, rejection, and substitution activity with Aer. hydrophila and Aer. veronii indicated the ability of the isolated strains to reduce the adhesion of pathogens to mucin. All strains showed safety properties, non-hemolytic, and sensitivity characteristics for most of tested antibiotics. In vivo test after injecting these strains into fish at various concentrations showed no side effects in the internal or external organs of fish compared to controls, proving that this is safe for these fish. Furthermore, the three strains produced lipase, amylase, and protease enzymes. The strains also showed bile salt hydrolase activity and biofilm formation, allowing them to tolerate stressful conditions. Conclusion: Based on these strains characteristics and features, they could be considered a promising candidate probiotic and can be used as an anti-pathogenic, especially in aquaculture.

Abstract
This study investigated the in vitro antibacterial activity of Lactobacillus acidophilus AD125 against Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 and its probiotic properties: gastrointestinal tolerance, surface hydrophobicity, autoaggregation, coaggregation, and adhesion to Caco-2 cells. In addition, the action mode of the strain's antagonism against adhesion of E. coli O157:H7 to Caco-2 cells was analyzed, and related substances were also determined. Results showed that L. acidophilus AD125 had stronger antibacterial activity (inhibition zone of 20.47 ± 0.43 for AD125 culture solution and 14.55 ± 1.12 for cell-free supernatant) against E. coli O157:H7 than other Lactobacillus spp. Also, this strain had higher gastrointestinal tolerance, autoaggregation percentage (26.51 ± 0.71%), and coaggregation percentage (23.97 ± 0.44%) with E. coli O157:H7. High surface hydrophobicity of toluene and xylene (83.59 ± 2.54% and 93.45 ± 1.24%) was also observed. Bacterial adhesion counts were 1176.54 100 per cells, indicating good adhesion to Caco-2 cells. Furthermore, the exclusion, competition, and antibacterial effect of AD125 may have driven its antagonism against E. coli O157:H7 adhesion. Finally, surface-layer proteins, extracellular polysaccharides, and thermosensitive substances all participated in the antagonism against E. coli O157:H7, with surface-layer proteins the main related substances. These results show that Lactobacillus acidophilus AD125 is promising for inhibiting E. coli O157:H7 and preventing and treating intestinal diseases induced by E. coli O157:H7.

Abstract
Previous studies documented that Lactobacillus paracasei has obvious in vitro cholesterol-lowering abilities. In this study, initially, L. paracasei was tested in terms of antibacterial properties as well as antibiogram profile. Then, the safety of the mentioned strain was evaluated in rats. Evaluation of antibiotic susceptibility revealed that the L. paracasei strain had high antibiotic resistance to several antibiotics as well as a great ability to autoaggregation. After identification of the probiotic aptitude, six groups of six rats from both sexes were used (three groups of each sex). L. paracasei was administered to the experimental groups via drinking water for 28 days (1 × 108 and 1 × 109, respectively). The negative control group received only tap water during this period. Hematological indicators, serum liver enzyme activity including (alanine transaminase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and aspartate transaminase (AST)) as well as serum creatinine and urea were evaluated at the end of 28 days. The blood and serum factors were not changed significantly during the 28 days. The only noticeable difference was the increase of blood urea in both sexes which was in a normal range. Furthermore, the evaluation of antagonistic properties revealed that L. paracasei had antibacterial aptitude against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In conclusion, this strain has good cholesterol-lowering and antibacterial properties and is a safe supplement in Wistar rats.

Abstract
Nile tilapia is one of the most consumed farmed fish in the world. The outbreak of pathogenic bacterial diseases causes high mortality rates and economic losses in Nile tilapia farming. Antibiotic administrations are commonly utilized to inhibit and prevent bacterial infections. However, antibiotics are expensive and cause serious concerns for antibiotic resistance in fish that can be potentially transferred to humans. As an alternative solution, probiotics can be used to prevent infection of pathogenic bacteria in fish. In this work, both bacteria and yeast were isolated from fish gastrointestinal tracts and their inhibitory activity against Nile tilapia pathogenic bacteria was evaluated, as well as other probiotic properties. In this study, 66 bacteria and 176 acid tolerant yeasts were isolated from fish gastrointestinal tracts. Of all isolated microorganisms, 39 bacterial and 15 yeast isolates with inhibitory effect against pathogens were then examined for their probiotic properties (acidic and bile salt resistance, adhesion potential, and biofilm formation), formation of antibacterial factor survival rate under simulated gastrointestinal fluid, and safety evaluation. AT8/5 bacterial isolate demonstrated probiotic properties and the highest inhibition against all 54 tested pathogens while YON3/2 yeast isolate outperformed the inhibitory effect among all yeast isolates. These two probiotic isolates were further identified by 16S rDNA and the D1/D2 domain of 26S rDNA sequence analysis for bacterial and yeast identification, respectively. AT8/5 and YON3/2 showed the highest similarity to Lactiplantibacillus argentoratensis and Candida tropicalis, respectively. This is the first report on isolated L. argentoratensis and C. tropicalis with antipathogenic bacteria of Nile tilapia properties. Collectively, AT8/5 and YON3/2 could be potentially used as promising alternatives to existing antibiotic methods to prevent pathogenic bacteria infection in Nile tilapia farming.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial and biopreservation potential of lactic acid bacteria. The potential probiotic culture inhibited the growth of gram-positive and gram-negative foodborne pathogens in agar spot assay with inhibition zones ranging from 10 to 21 mm in diameter. The strains showed coaggregation capabilities ranging from 7 to 71% with tested food pathogens including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium. The effect of cell-free supernatants on the release of 260 nm absorbing material, especially nucleic acids, was evaluated and indicated the antagonistic activity on foodborne pathogens, the highest being Lactobacillus paraplantarum against E. coli (3.77) and S. aureus (3.86) after 60 min. The effect of cell-free supernatant (CFS) on the growth of pathogens showed that Lactobacillus paraplantarum 11 and L. pentosus 93 had the highest inhibitory activity against tested strains. The biopreservation assay indicated that the potential probiotic strains Lactobacillus paraplantarum 11 (BT), Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 19, Lactobacillus pentosus 42, Limosilactobacillus fermentum 60, Lactobacillus pentosus 93, and Limosilactobacillus reuteri 112 were effective in reducing the Listeria monocytogenes population in raw buffalo milk. Complete Listeria monocytogenes inhibition was observed after 6-8 days. This study showed that probiotic LAB from buffalo milk have antimicrobial and biopreservation potential; these strains have the potential to be utilized as biopreservative agents in food products.

Abstract
This study aims to mine a previously developed continuous-flow competitive exclusion culture (CFCEC) originating from the Tilapia gut microbiome as a rational and efficient autochthonous probiotic strain recovery source. Three isolated strains were tested on their adaptability to host gastrointestinal conditions, their antibacterial activities against aquaculture bacterial pathogens, and their antibiotic susceptibility patterns. Their genomes were fully sequenced, assembled, annotated, and relevant functions inferred, such as those related to pinpointed probiotic activities and phylogenomic comparative analyses to the closer reported strains/species relatives. The strains are possible candidates of novel genus/species taxa inside Lactococcus spp. and Priestia spp. (previously known as Bacillus spp.) These results were consistent with reports on strains inside these phyla exhibiting probiotic features, and the strains we found are expanding their known diversity. Furthermore, their pangenomes showed that these bacteria have indeed a set of so far uncharacterized genes that may play a role in the antagonism to competing strains or specific symbiotic adaptations to the fish host. In conclusion, CFCEC proved to effectively allow the enrichment and further pure culture isolation of strains with probiotic potential.

Abstract
Bovine endometritis is an inflammatory disease of the uterus that occurs after parturition and can result in the destruction of uterine microecology, disruption of hormone secretion, and even infertility. Problems such as antibiotic residues, pathogen resistance, and microbiota dysbiosis caused by conventional antibiotic therapy cannot be ignored. According to the microecological balance theory, probiotics have the potential to prevent or cure endometritis in cattle. Probiotics can positively influence host physiology by regulating microecological imbalance, modulating immunity, and antagonizing pathogens. Since some probiotics contribute to host health only in their specific natural niches, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from the vagina may have better potential to fight against vaginal and uterine infection. The yak (Bos grunniens) is an ancient and primitive livestock animal that is adapted to high altitude and harsh environments (cold, nutritional deficiencies, and hypoxia). However, to our knowledge, there have been no studies on yak vaginal LAB. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to isolate vaginal LAB from yak, evaluate and compare the probiotic potential and safety of the isolates, and help establish the probiotics library that can be used in the prevention and/or treatment of endometritis. Twenty-five vaginal swabs were collected from healthy yak and cultured in deMan, Rogosa, and Sharpe (MRS) broth. Tentative LAB strains were preliminarily determined through calcium dissolving zone and morphological identification, and the strains were then identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The probiotics of the isolates were detected using cell aggregation, hydrophobicity, resistance to acid and bile salt, adhesion, and antibacterial activities. Additionally, antimicrobial susceptibility, hemolytic activity, and detection of potential virulence factors were determined in order to confirm the safety of these strains. Five isolates were identified: Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus plantarum, Enterococcus hirae, Lacticaseibacillus camelliae, and Lactobacillus mucosae. All isolates had certain growth resistance, aggregation ability, effective antimicrobial potency against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium, were sensitive to most antibiotics, and could effectively adhere to bovine endometrial epithelial cells (BEECs). None of the isolates showed hemolytic activity or harbored virulence factors. Our results indicated that the five isolates have considerable potential as probiotics that can be used to prevent and/or treat bovine endometritis. We speculate that a mixture of YD6, YD9, and YD25 may yield better results, although this would require extensive experiments to verify.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:1522-1530. [PMID: 34402069 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/17/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adhesion is considered important for Lactiplantibacillus to persist in the human gut and for it to exert probiotic effects. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum contains a considerable number and variety of genes encoding bile salt hydrolases (bsh), but their effects on microbial adhesion remain poorly understood. To clarify the effects of four bsh on adhesion, we tried to knock out bsh (Δbsh) of L. plantarum AR113 using the CRISPR-Cas9 method, and compared the growth, auto-aggregation (RAA ), co-aggregation (RCA ), surface hydrophobicity (AHC ) of AR113 wild-type and Δbsh strains and their adhesion abilities to HT29 cells. RESULTS We first obtained the AR113 Δbsh1,3,2,4 strain with four bsh knocked out. Their growth was significantly slower than the wild-type strain cultured in De Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe medium (MRS) with 3.0 g L-1 glyco- or tauro-conjugated bile acid. Bsh had no significant effect on the growth of ten strains cultured in MRS, but Δbsh1 inhibited their growth when cultured in MRS containing 3.0 g L-1 sodium glycocholate, whereas Δbsh4 instead promoted their growth in MRS with 3.0 g L-1 sodium glycocholate and sodium taurocholate. RCA and RAA were linearly positive for all strains except AR113 Δbsh2,4, and AHC and RAA were negatively correlated for most strains excluding AR113 Δbsh2, with RAA = 6.38-25.05%, RCA = 5.17-9.22%, and ACH = 3.22-47.71%. The adhesion ability of ten strains cultured in MRS was higher than that of strains cultured in MRS with 3.0 g L-1 bovine bile, and it was related to bsh2. CONCLUSION Bsh differentially affected the adhesion of AR113 series strains. This adds to the available information about substrate-gene-performance, and provides new information to enable engineering to regulate the colonization of Lactiplantibacillus. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Probiotic activity traits in vitro and production of antimicrobial peptides by Lactobacillaceae isolates from pulque using Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM as control. Braz J Microbiol 2022; 53:921-933. [PMID: 35094300 PMCID: PMC9151957 DOI: 10.1007/s42770-022-00684-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this work was to determine in vitro probiotic activity traits of 11 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from pulque obtained from three different locations in the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Puebla using the probiotic strain Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM as a positive control, and to detect their production of antimicrobial peptides, including bacteriocins and peptidoglycan hydrolases (PGH). The LAB isolates were identified by sequencing of their 16S rRNA as belonging to four different genera of the Lactobacillaceae family: Lactiplantibacillus, Levilactobacillus, Lacticaseibacillus and Liquorilactobacillus, corresponding to the species plantarum, brevis, paracasei and ghanensis, respectively. Most of the strains showed resistance to high acidity (pH 2) and bile salts (0.5%), with survival rates up to 87 and 92%, respectively. In addition, most of the strains presented good antimicrobial activity against the foodborne pathogens Listeria monocytogenes, ECEC and Salmonella Typhi. The strain Liquorilactobacillus ghanensis RVG6, newly reported in pulque, presented an outstanding overall performance on the probiotic activity tests. In terms of their probiotic activity traits assessed in this work, the strains compared positively with the control L. acidophilus NCFM, which is a very-well documented probiotic strain. For the antimicrobial peptide studies, four strains presented bacteriocin-like mediated antibiosis and six had significant PGH activity, with two strains presenting outstanding overall antimicrobial peptide production: Lacticaseibacillus paracasei RVG3 and Levilactobacillus brevis UTMB2. The probiotic performance of the isolates was mainly dependent on strain specificity. The results obtained in this work can foster the revalorization of pulque as a functional natural product.

Abstract
In the present study, eight strains of Enterococcus spp. were isolated from Turkish and Iranian white cheese test pieces. Enterococcus spp. strains were identified as Enterococcus faecium (6 strains) and E. faecalis (2) with 16S rDNA sequence analysis. All Enterococcus spp. strains showed susceptibility to the most of antibiotics tested in this investigation. The amount of produced acid (0.59-1.17%), hydrogen peroxide (0.65-3.91 µg/ml), and exopolysaccharide (252-362 mg/L) of these strains were determined. These strains possess the ability to inhibit Escherichia coli ATCC 35,218, Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13,076, and Salmonella typhimurium MU 80. E. faecium RI53 and RI 42 strains were determined as the most resistant to acid (1.86 and 1.56 OD, respectively) and also exhibited high percentage of aggregation (54.1 and 51.7%, respectively). E. faecium RI 42 exhibited a higher growth viability in gastric and intestinal juice. E. faecium RI 53 and RI 42 are determined as optimal potential probiotic candidates for utilization in cheese preparations.

Abstract
In the present study, a total of 80 presumed lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from camel milk. Selected LAB were identified as Lactococcus lactis (cam 12), Enterococcus lactis (cam 14) and Lactobacillus plantarum (cam 15) and their potential were tested by tolerance & de-conjugation of bile salts, antimicrobial activity, surface hydrophobicity and adhesion potential) along with this of probiotics were evaluated for curd formation and assessed for sensory properties and syneresis. Selected LABs showed antimicrobial activity against wide range of pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus and Escherchiaia. coli). LAB (cam 12, cam 14 and cam15) were highly sceptible to chloramphenicol, vancomycin, and tetracyclin. In vitro adhesion studies with Caco-2 cells demonstrated strong adhesion activity with hydrophobicity (99%) was observed. Acute oral toxicity of E. lactis and L. plantarum showed non-toxic, non-virulent and safe for industrial application. The study provides potential LAB which may act as a substitute of functional food, synthetic feed and industrial curd formulation with in the shortest span (240 min at 28–32 °C).

Abstract
Beneficial microbes are all around us and it remains to be seen, whether all diseases and disorders can be prevented or treated with beneficial microbes. In this study, the presence of various beneficial bacteria were identified from the sediments of Indian major Rivers Ganga and Yamuna from nine different sites using a metagenomic approach. The metagenome sequence analysis using the Kaiju Web server revealed the presence of 69 beneficial bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis among these bacterial species revealed that they were highly diverse. Relative abundance analysis of these bacterial species is highly correlated with different pollution levels among the sampling sites. The PCA analysis revealed that Lactobacillus spp. group of beneficial bacteria are more associated with sediment sampling sites, KAN-2 and ND-3; whereas Bacillus spp. are more associated with sites, FAR-2 and ND-2. This is the first report revealing the richness of beneficial bacteria in the Indian rivers, Ganga and Yamuna. The study might be useful in isolating different important beneficial microorganisms from these river sediments, for possible industrial applications.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates possessed functional probiotic attributes, such as high hydrophobicity and autoaggregation ability, coaggregation capability with bacterial pathogens, antimicrobial activity, antioxidant potential, and hypocholesterolemic effects. Selected potential probiotic LAB, i.e. Lactobacillus paracasei M3, L. casei M5, L. paracasei M7, and few others were studied for their ability to lower cholesterol using a number of methods viz. cholesterol assimilation, bile salt deconjugation, cholesterol co-precipitation, cholesterol adhesion to probiotic cell wall, and miceller sequestration of cholesterol. L. casei M5 showed maximum bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity, and released 57.63 nmol of glycine/min, and was closely followed by LAB isolate M9 which generated 52.12 nmol of glycine/min. Sodium glycocholate was deconjugated by L. casei M5 to produce 27.77 μmol/mL of cholic acid, while other isolates produced 20-26 μmol/mL of cholic acid. Cholesterol was assimilated significantly by isolate M6 (82.15%) and L. casei M5 (76.51%). L. casei M5 showed higher cholesterol co-precipitation ability (50.16 μg/mL) as compared to other LAB isolates (33-44 μg/mL). Miceller cholesterol concentration was reduced maximally by LAB isolate M8 (87.5%), followed by isolates M5 (84.75%), M9 (84%), M10 (80%), and M37 (79%). Higher cell wall adhesion of cholesterol was realized by L. casei M5 (42.48 μg/mL) than other LAB isolates (30-40 μg/mL). Selected LAB probiotics demonstrated short chain fatty acid (acetate, propionate, and butyrate) producing ability, yet another way of probiotics-mediated cholesterol lowering.

Abstract
Three yeast strains were isolated from the spontaneous fermentation of guajillo pepper: Hanseniaspora opuntiae, Pichia kudriavzevii, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus, which were identified by amplification of the ITS/5.8S ribosomal DNA. Some probiotic characteristics of these strains were evaluated and compared with one commercial probiotic yeast (Saccharomyces boulardii). The survival percentage of all the yeasts was similar to that of the commercial product. They showed different hydrophobicity characteristics with hydrocarbons, autoaggregation > 90%, and characteristics of co-aggregation with pathogenic microorganisms. The adhesion capacity to mucin of the three yeast samples was similar to the reference yeast. The antioxidant activity of the yeasts varied between 155 and 178 μM Trolox equivalents. All exhibited cholesterol reduction capacity, and W. anomalus was able to decrease up to 83% of cholesterol after 48 h of incubation. The 7.5-fold concentrated H. opuntiae supernatant had antimicrobial activity against Salmonella enterica ser. Typhimurium ATCC 14028 and Candida albicans ENCBDM2; tests suggest this activity against S. Typhimurium is due to a proteinaceous metabolite with a weight between 10 and 30 kDa. Among the yeasts, P. kudriavzevii exhibited the highest protective effect on the viability of Lactobacillus casei Shirota in gastric and intestinal conditions. These results suggest that yeasts isolated from guajillo pepper may have a probiotic potential.

Abstract
The aim of this study was isolation and identification of the high-level aminoglycoside-resistant (HLAR) enterococci in raw milk and dairy products and to analyze their antibiotic resistance and the presence of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) genes. A total of 59 HLAR enterococci were isolated from raw milk and traditional cheese samples. Thirty-nine of the 59 HLAR enterococci were isolated on streptomycin-containing agar medium, while the other 20 HLAR strains were isolated on gentamicin containing agar medium. The 59 HLAR enterococci were identified as 26 E. faecalis (44.07%), 18 E. faecium (30.51%), 13 E. durans (22.03%), and two E. gallinarum (3.39%) by species-specific PCR. Disk diffusion tests showed that teicoplanin were the most effective antibiotics used in this study, while 89.83% of isolates were found to be resistant to tetracycline. High rates of multiple antibiotic resistance were detected in HLAR isolates. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of HLAR enterococci against streptomycin and gentamicin were found in the range of 64 to > 4096 µg/mL. Forty-seven (79.66%) of the 59 HLAR enterococci were found to be both high-level streptomycin-resistant (HLSR) and high-level gentamicin-resistant (HLGR) by MIC tests. However, no correlation was found between the results of the disk diffusion and MIC tests for gentamicin and streptomycin in some HLAR strains. The aph(3')-IIIa (94.92%) was found to be most prevalent AME gene followed by ant(4')-Ia (45.76%), ant(6')-Ia (20.34%) and aph(2'')-Ic (10.17%). None of the isolates contained the aac(6')-Ie-aph(2'')-Ia, aph(2'')-Ib or aph(2'')-Id genes. None of the AME-encoding genes were identified in E. durans RG20.1, E. faecalis RG22.4, or RG26.1. In conclusion, HLAR enterococci strains isolated in this study may act as reservoirs in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are still a large variety of microorganisms among aquatic animals, especially probiotic lactic acid bacteria in cold water fishes at high latitudes have not been fully developed. Hence, the present study aims to evaluate the probiotic potential of cold-adapted Lactobacillus strains isolated from the intestinal tract of cold water fishes (Xinjiang) and select candidates to be used as new food preservative agents and/or probiotic additives in feeding of aquaculture. RESULTS A total of 43 Lactobacillus spp. were isolated from 16 kinds of intestinal tract of cold-water fishes. They were characterized by phenotypic methods, identified using Rep-PCR and 16S rRNA gene sequencing as four species: Lactobacillus sakei (22 isolates), Lactobacillus plantarum (16 isolates), Lactobacillus casei (4 isolates) and Lactobacillus paracasei (1 isolate). The in vitro tests included survival in low pH and bile, antimicrobial activity (against Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Listeria innocua), resistance to 15 antibiotics and hemolytic tests. Among all 43 lactobacilli isolates, the 22 isolates showed a wide range of antimicrobial activity against 6 different pathogenic strains. There were twenty isolates growing at optimal temperature ranging 16~20 °C, which were initially considered to be cold-adapted strains. Two (2) Lb. sakei strains and 2 Lb. plantarum strains demonstrated the highest survivability after 4 h of exposure at pH 2.0. Most of the tested strains cannot be cultured after exposed into 0.5% bile solution for 4 h, while 2 Lb. plantarum strains (E-HLM-3, CQ-CGC-2) and 1 Lb. sakei strain M-DGM-2 survived even at 2% bile concentration. In addition, the safety assessment showed that 22 strains without any detectable hemolytic activity and resistant to glycopeptides (vancomycin, teicoplanin), levofloxacin, aztreonam, amikacin and oxacillin, while all the studied lactobacilli showed sensitivity to or semi-tolerant to other antibiotics. CONCLUSIONS Based on all the experiments, 3 strains, including E-HLM-3, CQ-CGC-2, and M-DGM-2 might be a candidate of choice for using in the food preservative agents and/or probiotic additives in feeding of aquaculture.

Abstract
In the present study, the effect of different concentrations of cell-free supernatant (CFS; 10.00 and 35.00 mg g-1) of Lactobacillus salivarius (Ls-BU2) on chemical, microbial and sensorial specifications of ground beef stored under the refrigerated condition was investigated. The antibacterial activity of CFS on Escherichia coli was also assessed. According to agar-disk diffusion method, CFS of Ls-BU2 revealed a promising antibacterial activity against E. coli in culture media compared to CFS of a well-known probiotic (L. acidophilus LA-5). In meat, CFS of Ls-BU2 showed a minimal effective concentration (MEC) of 35.00 mg g-1 on E. coli, while CFS of L. acidophilus represented a MEC of 45.00 mg g-1. The CFS of Ls-BU2 at 35.00 mg g-1 concentration retained psychrophilic counts of meat at a lower value than maximum accepted level (7 log10 CFU g-1). In a similar trend, CFS of Ls-BU2 at 35.00 mg g-1 concentration was also displayed high sensorial scores compared to other CFS-treated samples. In conclusion, we demonstrated that CFS of Ls-BU2 and to some extent CFS of L. acidophilus could act as a safe food additive for the control of bacterial pathogens and to extend the shelf life of ground beef.

Abstract
Fish gut bacteria can be used as probiotics for aquaculture. The aim of this study is to screen and identify beneficial probiotic bacteria from the gut of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. Nine out of one hundred thirty-five isolates were non-pathogenic through intraperitoneal injection and had antibacterial activities with at least a strain from the five isolated fish pathogens, Aeromonas sobria, Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas putida, and Staphylococcus aureus. Further tests showed that such isolates can survive in the presence of high bile concentration (10%) and at different acidic pH values. A strains (14HT) was sensitive to all selected antibiotics, two strains were (9HT and 11HT) resistant to streptomycin and three strains (9HT, 11HT and 38HT) had resistance to two antibiotics. Four isolates (11HT, 33HT, 38HT and 41HT) had an amylase and a protease activities and one strain (47HT) showed only amylase activity. Based on 16S rRNA gene analysis, the isolated strains were identified as follows: Lactococcus lactis (8HT, 9HT, 11HT and 33HT); Enterococcus faecalis (14HT), Lysinibacillus sp. (38HT) and Citrobacter freundii (39HT, 41HT and 47HT).

Administration of Probiotics in the Water in Finfish Aquaculture Systems: A Review. FISHES 2018. [DOI: 10.3390/fishes3030033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Over the last few decades, the contribution of aquaculture to animal protein production has increased enormously, and the sector now provides almost half of the fish and shellfish consumed worldwide, making it a major food producer. Nevertheless, many factors, including infections, pollution, and stress, may result in significant economic losses. The aquaculture industry will not be totally successful without the therapeutic and preventive means to control all these factors. Antibiotics (long used in aquaculture practice) have tended to aggravate the problem by increasing antibiotic resistance. Concomitantly, probiotics have widely been suggested as eco-friendly alternatives to antibiotics. However, the way in which probiotics are applied in aquaculture is a key factor in their favorable performance. The aim of this review was to examine the current state of probiotics administration through the water in finfish aquaculture. The review also attempts to cover the research gaps existing in our knowledge of this administration mode, and to suggest the issues that need to be investigated in greater depth.

Abstract
Bacteriocin TSU4 is a novel antimicrobial peptide isolated from Catla catla gut isolate Lactobacillus animalis TSU4. It has been reported for its potential antimicrobial activity against fish pathogens and food spoilage bacteria. In vivo safety evaluation is necessary to determine its immunogenicity, toxicity, and importance in real-life applications. The present study was designed to evaluate the immunogenicity, acute and sub-chronic toxicity of bacteriocin TSU4 in BALB/c mice to ensure its safety in industrial application. Male BALB/c mice were administered intraperitoneally for immunogenicity assessment, by oral gavage with 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/body weight for acute test and 0.5 mg/kg/day dose of bacteriocin TSU4 for sub-chronic toxicity test. Neither mortality nor any infections were observed during experimental period. There was no major increase in antibody titer during the immunogenicity test, and no mortality was observed during acute or sub-chronic toxicity tests. The LD50 value of bacteriocin TSU4 was found to be higher than 200 ± 0.45 mg/kg. No significant change in the serum biochemical markers, histopathological analysis and visual observation in spleen sizes was observed. These findings revealed that bacteriocin TSU4 is a non-immunogenic, safe, non-toxic, and could be a potential candidate for industrial applications in food preservation and aquaculture industries.

Effects of dietary supplementation of four strains of lactic acid bacteria on growth, immune-related response and genes expression of the juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus Selenka. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2018; 74:69-75. [PMID: 29284147 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2017.12.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2017] [Revised: 12/10/2017] [Accepted: 12/21/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
A feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of four strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) [i.e. Lactobacillus plantarum LL11 (LP), Weissella confuse LS13 (WC), Lactococcus lactis LH8 (LL) and Enterococcus faecalis LC3 (ES)] isolated from marine fish on growth, immune response and expression levels of immune-related gens in body wall of juvenile sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. As a result, sea cucumber had better growth performance fed supplementation of LP and ES than the control group (P < .05). Survival rate in each LAB supplementation group was significantly higher than that in control group after Vibrio splendidus challenge (P < .05). In regards to the enzyme activities, LP supplementation significantly imporved the enzyme activities of alkaline phosphatase (AKP) (P < .05), acid phosphatase (ACP) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), ES supplementation significantly imporved AKP activity (P < .05), and WC supplementation significantly imporved ACP activity (P < .05). However, lysozyme (LSZ) activity was not significantly changed in the four LAB supplementation treatments (P > .05). For the gene expression levels, different expression patterns were observed among four groups, heat shock proteins (HSP60, HSP70 and HSP90) and caspase-2 showed dramatic up-regulation at 30 d while NF-kappa-B transcription factor p65 was down-regulated at 15 d and up-regulated at 30 d, and nitric oxide synthase was down-regulated at both timepoints in almost all the four groups. In conclusion, the four LAB strains screened from marine fish supplemented in diets indicated positive effects on immune response for A. japonicus, especially, the L. plantarum LL11 and E. faecalis LC3 indicated better growth performance.

Abstract
Cronobacter species are foodborne pathogens that can cause neonatal meningitis, necrotizing enterocolitis, and sepsis; they have unusual abilities to survive in environmental stresses such as acid stress. However, the factors involved in acid stress responses and biofilm formation in Cronobacter species are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the role of grxB on cellular morphology, acid tolerance, surface hydrophobicity, auto-aggregation (AAg), motility, and biofilm formation in Cronobacter sakazakii. The deletion of grxB decreased resistance to acid stresses, and notably led to weaker surface hydrophobicity, AAg, and biofilm formation under normal and acid stress conditions, compared with those of the wild type strain; however, motility was unaffected. Therefore, grxB appears to contribute to the survival of C. sakazakii in acid stresses and biofilm formation. This is the first report to provide valuable evidence for the role of grxB in acid stress responses and biofilm formation in C. sakazakii.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of dietary Lactobacillus acidophilus on skin mucus protein pattern, immune and appetite related genes expression as well as growth performance in gold fish (Carassius auratus gibelio). Three hundred healthy gold fish (2.5 ± 0.05) juveniles were randomly distributed in 12 glass aquariums (400-L; 25 fish per aquaria) and fed experimental diets contain different levels of L. acidophilus (0, 1.5 × 108, 3 × 108 and 6 × 108) for 8 weeks. SDS-PAGE analysis of skin mucus protein profile at the end of the feeding trial revealed differences in protein profile of probiotic fed fish and control group; even three new bands were observed in L. acidophilus treated groups. Furthermore, fish fed 6 × 108 CFU g-1 supplemented diet showed up-regulation of both TNF-1α and TNF-2α gene expression (P < 0.05). Evaluation of appetite related gene expression showed down-regulation of ghrelin in probiotic fed fish compared those of control treatment (P < 0.05). However, administration of different levels of L. acidophilus had no significant effects on growth performance (P > 0.05). These results demonstrated that while no beneficial effects on growth performance, dietary L. acidophilus affects immune and appetite related genes expression as well as skin mucus protein profile.

Abstract
Pulque is a Mexican traditional alcoholic, non-distilled, fermented beverage produced by the fermentation of the sap, known as aguamiel, extracted from several maguey (Agave) species. Pulque has traditionally been considered a healthy beverage due to its nutrient content and also a traditional medicine for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders and intestinal infections. During pulque fermentation, the development of acidity, alcohol and viscosity define its final sensorial properties, developing an enriched environment where dominant lactic acid bacteria (LAB), including diverse Leuconostoc species, are present. Because traditional pulque is consumed directly from the fermentation vessel, the naturally associated LAB are ingested and reach the human small intestine alive. Here, we report the in vitro and in vivo probiotic assessment of Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain P45 isolated from pulque. This isolated LAB species exhibited lysozyme, acid (pH 3.5) and bile salts (0.1 and 0.3 % oxgall) resistance. Antibacterial activity against the pathogens Listeria monocytogenes, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and S. enterica serovar Typhimurium were observed in assays involving cell-to-cell contact, cell-free 2× concentrated supernatants and cell-to-cell contact under exopolysaccharide-producing conditions. The in vivo probiotic assessment showed an anti-infective activity of L. mesenteroides P45 against S. enterica serovar Typhimurium in challenged male and female BALB/c mice. Analysis of the available genome sequence of strain P45 allowed identified a pre-bacteriocin coding gene and six peptidoglycan hydrolase enzymes, probably involved in the antimicrobial activity of this strain. The results presented in this study support some potential microbial mechanisms associated with the beneficial effects on human health of this LAB involved in the fermentation of pulque.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of Aeromonas hydrophila, a potent fish pathogen, is attributed to its ability to cause motile aeromonad septicaemia leading to apoptosis in a myriad of fish species, including freshwater carp Catla catla. However, the underlying mechanism of antagonistic activity of probiotics against A. hydrophila induced apoptosis is not elucidated due to lack of appropriate in-vitro models. This study reported that the exposure of catla thymus macrophages (CTM) to A. hydrophila markedly induced cellular injuries as evidenced by elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), increased apoptosis, DNA damage and decreased cellular viability. Flow cytometry analysis and Annexin-V/propidium iodide assay further confirmed increased ROS positive cells leading to cell death after infection. The quantitative real-time PCR analysis, also revealed upregulation of inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS), pro-inflammatory cytokine (TNFα), cyclooxygenase2 (COX-2) and downregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10). Pretreatment of cells with probiotic, Lactobacillus acidophilus attenuated A. hydrophila induced apoptosis as evident from the decrease in the levels of ROS, RNS and DNA damage. Significant increase (P≤0.05) in expression of TNFα and IL-10 and decrease in iNOS and COX-2 was observed on probiotic stimulation. In-vivo study using catla fingerlings confirmed similar pattern of ROS, iNOS, NO production and cytokine expression in thymus. This study provides a comprehensive insight into the mechanistic basis of L. acidophilus induced macrophage mediated inflammatory response against A. hydrophila in CTM cells. Further, it speculates the possibility of using cost-effective in-vitro models for screening probiotic candidates of therapeutic potential in aquaculture industry.
