Abstract
BACKGROUND Neonatal feces are one of the most important sources for probiotic isolation. The purpose of this study was the isolation and identification of Bifidobacterium spp. from neonatal feces and the evaluation of in vitro probiotic properties of strains including safety tests. RESULTS A total of 40 isolates were obtained from 14 healthy newborns' feces in Erzurum province, Türkiye. By their rep-PCR patterns and 16S rRNA gene sequences, isolates were identified as 26 Bifidobacterium breve and 14 Bifidobacterium longum. Fifteen of the isolates tolerated bile salts and showed high resistance to simulated gastric juice. Isolates exhibited varying rates of auto-aggregation and hydrophobicity. In addition, most of the isolates displayed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Salmonella Typhimurium RSHMB 95091, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027. However, only one strain showed bile salt hydrolase activity and two strains showed the ability to produce H2O2. Bifidobacterium strains were generally sensitive to the tested antibiotics and lacked kanamycin, gentamicin, and streptomycin resistance genes, and hemolytic and DNAse activities. On the other hand, it was determined that five strains had various virulence genes including gelE, esp, efaAfs, hyl, and ace. CONCLUSION Results of the present study suggested that B. longum BH28, B. breve BH4 and B. breve BH5 strains have the potential as probiotic candidates for further studies. © 2024 The Authors.

A novel Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strain: probiotic properties and optimization of the growth conditions by response surface methodology. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 40:66. [PMID: 38194015 PMCID: PMC10776492 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-023-03862-3] [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: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study is to explore the probiotic properties and optimal growth conditions of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum BG24. L. plantarum BG24 exhibited a remarkable ability to utilize lactose, and to grow under acidic conditions and in the presence of high levels of bile salts. The strain showed the highest antibacterial activity against L. monocytogenes Scott A (zone of inhibition: 26 mm). L. plantarum BG24 was found to be resistant to 8 of the tested 19 antibiotics using the disc diffusion method.and its multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index was calculated as 0.421. The adhesion rate to human intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells was determined as 37.51%. The enzyme profile of L. plantarum BG24 was investigated using API ZYM test kit and the highest enzymatic activities were found for Leucine arylamidase, β-glucosidase, Valine arylamidase, β-galactosidase and N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase. L. plantarum BG24 strain showed higher microbial growth under static conditions (6.60 OD600) compared to 100 rpm (5.73 OD600) and 200 rpm (5.02 OD600) shaking speed due to its facultative anaerobic characteristic. However, different inoculation rates and glucose addition did not make a statistically significant difference on biomass formation (p > 0.05). The specific growth rate of L. plantarum BG24 was 0.416 h-1, the doubling time was 1.67 h, and the biomass productivity value was 0.14 gL-1 h-1 in the original MRS broth (pH 5.7) while higher values were found as 0.483 h-1, 1.43 h and 0.17 gL-1 h-1, respectively, in MRS broth (pH 6.5) medium enriched with 5 g/L yeast extract. The stirred tank bioreactor was used to optimise the growth of BG24 strain. The process variables was optimized at 0.05 vvm of aeration rate, 479 rpm of agitation speed, 3% of inoculation rate and 18 h of incubation time. The maximum biomass (g/L) production was obtained as 3.84 g/L at the optimized conditions.

Abstract
The isolation of endogenous yeast strains from traditionally fermented food products to use as functional starter cultures has become more popular for improved food safety, quality, and beneficial health effects. In this study, 107 Pichia kudriavzevii strains were isolated from sourdough, shalgam, tarhana, artisanal Tulum cheese, and yogurt. The strains were identified by DNA fingerprinting using iPBS-PCR method before technological and probiotic characterization. The multivariate statistical approach revealed that five strains were most promising in terms of technological characterization, including different harsh growth conditions. These strains were also examined in terms of probiotic properties with a commercial S. cerevisiae var boulardii MYA-796 strain. The multivariate statistical analyses indicated that P. kudriavzevii 5S5 were most promising in in vitro probiotic properties such as surviving in human GI conditions, adhering to intestinal cell lines, and exhibiting high hydrophobicity. Therefore, it seems to be a great starter candidate for the production of functional fermented food products.

Abstract
The present study aimed at characterizing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from traditional sourdoughs collected in different regions of Morocco. Isolated strains were firstly identified using Gram staining and catalase reaction test. Presumptive LAB strains were then checked for various phenotypical properties including growth at 45 °C, resistance to NaCl, enzyme production, acidification capacity, diacetyl and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production, and antifungal activity. Finally, selected LAB strains were identified using 16S rDNA sequencing. Results showed that 32.1% of the isolates were thermophilic (45 °C) and 83.9% were resistant to NaCl (6.5%). Moreover, 51.7 and 37.5% were able to produce diacetyl and EPS, respectively. Regarding enzyme production, 55.3 and 7.1% of the isolates showed lipolytic and proteolytic activities, respectively. Low pH values (3.37-3.76) were obtained after 24 h of incubation of LAB strains in de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) broth. Antifungal activity test against Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium spp. showed an inhibition rate up to 50%. Bacterial DNA sequencing showed that LAB isolates belong to seven species, chiefly Levilactobacillus brevis, Lentilactobacillus parabuchneri, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Pediococcus pentosaceus, Enterococcus hirae, Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum, and Companilactobacillus paralimentarius. These findings, for the first time in Moroccan sourdoughs, indicate that the isolated LAB strains have good multifunctional properties and could be suitable as good starters for sourdough bread production under controlled conditions.

Abstract
In this study, ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized in the presence of almond oil at various molar ratios of zinc acetate and sodium hydroxide, including 0.5:1, 0.75:1, 1:1, 1.25:1, and 1.5:1, to obtain pH values of 11, 10, 9, 8, and 7, respectively. The XRD results revealed that ZnO NPs exhibit a hexagonal structure, with high crystallinity. SEM results showed that dense and large sized ZnO NPs were formed at pH 11, and relatively small (~30-40 nm) NPs were obtained at pH 9. The size distribution can be explained in terms of the presence of OH- ions at different pH levels. However, the larger size of the NPs at pH 7 compared to those at pH 8-11 were due to the coalescence of NPs suitable for antioxidant/antibacterial activities. ZnO NPs demonstrated a high degradation efficiency (~93%) in 90 min, with a high rate constant for Methyl Orange (MO), which is better than the previously reported rate. The larger sized almond oil capped ZnO NPs also showed excellent radical scavenging activity (94%) and are proven to be good carriers to resist Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria.

Abstract
Technological prospecting was performed on documents related to sourdough microbiota using SCOPUS, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Espacenet and Patent Inspiration databases. Scientific articles and patents were analyzed based on three different perspectives: macro (year of publication, country, and institutions), meso (categorization as different taxonomies according to the subject evaluated), and micro (in-depth analysis of the main taxonomies, gathering the documents in subcategories). The main subject addressed in patents was the starter and product preparation, while 58.8% of the scientific publications focused on sourdough starter microbiota (identification and selection of microorganisms). Most patents were granted to companies (45.9%), followed by independent inventors (26.4%) and universities (21.8%). Sourdough products are in the spotlight when the subject is the bakery market; however, a closer integration between academia and industry is needed. Such a collaboration could generate a positive impact on the sourdough market in terms of innovation, providing a bread with a better nutritional and sensory quality for all consumers. Moreover, sourdough creates a new magnitude of flavor and texture in gastronomy, providing new functional products or increasing the quality of traditional ones.

Screening of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Strains from Sourdoughs for Biosuppression of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae and Botrytis cinerea in Table Grapes. Microorganisms 2022; 10:2094. [PMID: 36363685 PMCID: PMC9696664 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10112094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2022] [Indexed: 09/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) are an essential crop for fresh consumption and wine production. Vineyards are attacked by several economically important bacterial and fungal diseases that require regular pesticide treatment. Among them, Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Ps. syringae) and Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea) infections cause huge economic losses. The fresh fruit market has shifted to functional natural foodstuffs with clear health benefits and a reduced use of chemicals along the production chain. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have a biopreservative effect and are applied to ensure food safety in response to consumers' demands. In the present study, the possibilities of using microorganisms with a potential antimicrobial effect against Ps. syringae and B. cinerea in the production of table grapes were investigated. LAB of the genus Lactiplantibacillus can be a natural antagonist of pathogenic bacteria and fungi by releasing lactic acid, acetic acid, ethanol, carbon dioxide and bacteriocins in the medium. The present study focuses on the characterization of nine Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (Lp. plantarum) strains isolated from spontaneously fermented sourdoughs. Species-specific PCR identified the isolated LAB for partial recA gene amplification with an amplicon size of 318 bp. RAPD-PCR analysis showed the intraspecific diversity of the individual strains. Thirteen plantaricin-like peptides (PlnA, PlnB, PlnC, PlnD, PlnEF, PlnG, PlnI, PlnJ, PlnK, PlnN, PlnNC8, PlnS, and PlnW) produced by isolated Lp. plantarum strains were detected by PCR with gene-specific primers. The key features for future industrial applications were their antimicrobial properties. The culture medium and cell-free supernatant (CFS) were used to establish in vitro antimicrobial activities of Lp. plantarum strains against Ps. syringae and B. cinerea, and inhibition of phytopathogen development was observed. The inhibitory effect of the CFS (cell-free supernatant) of all strains was assessed by infecting table grapes with these pathogens in in vivo experiments. Lp. plantarum Q4 showed the most effective suppression of the pathogens both in vitro and in vivo, which indicates its potential use as a biocontrol agent against berry rot and grey rot on grapes, caused by Ps. syringae and B. cinerea.
