Abstract
We have developed sulphur-doped graphitic carbon nitride (S-GCN) anchored Ag@AgCl electrocatalyst through a green technique for the first time for the electrochemical sensing of chloramphenicol. The Ag@AgCl nanoparticles were synthesized using Rhoeo discolor (Tradescantia spathacea) plant extract without the use of any external halide source. As per our knowledge, this is the first time Rhoeo discolor (Tradescantia spathacea) plant extract was used for the synthesis of Ag@AgCl nanoparticles without the use of any external halide source. Using sonochemical technique, the green synthesized nanoparticle was combined with S-GCN to form Ag@AgCl/S-GCN electrocatalyst. The synthesized materials were characterized by suitable techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and elemental analysis. The electrocatalytic reduction mechanism of chloramphenicol was studied with the help of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and linear sweep voltammetry. The Ag@AgCl/S-GCN modified electrode has shown a linear response in the range of 1 to 650 μM, with a LOD of 420 nM . Further, the practical application of the developed sensor was analyzed using real samples such as milk and honey and satisfactory recovery rates were observed.

[PMID: 39200415 PMCID: PMC11353716 DOI: 10.3390/foods13162487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Microbial contamination of food and alimentary toxoinfection/intoxication in humans are commonly caused by bacteria such as Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli, Yersinia spp., Campylobacter spp., Listeria monocytogenes, and fungi (Aspergillus, Fusarium). The addition of probiotic cultures (bacterial strains Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii) to food contributes primarily to food enrichment and obtaining a functional product, but also to food preservation. Reducing the number of viable pathogenic microorganisms and eliminating or neutralizing their toxins in food is achieved by probiotic-produced antimicrobial substances such as organic acids (lactic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, phenylacetic acid, and phenyllactic acid), fatty acids (linoleic acid, butyric acid, caproic acid, and caprylic acid), aromatic compounds (diacetyl, acetaldehyde, reuterin), hydrogen peroxide, cyclic dipeptides, bacteriocins, and salivabactin. This review summarizes the basic facts on microbial contamination and preservation of food and the potential of different probiotic strains and their metabolites (postbiotics), including the mechanisms of their antimicrobial action against various foodborne pathogens. Literature data on this topic over the last three decades was searched in the PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases, systematically presented, and critically discussed, with particular attention to the advantages and disadvantages of using probiotics and postbiotics as food biopreservatives.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the suitability of fermented food interventions to replenish damaged gut microbiota. Metagenomic assessment of published sequencing data found that fermented food interventions led to a significant increase in the gut antibiotic resistome in healthy human subjects. Antibiotic resistome and viable antibiotic-resistant (AR) bacteria were further highly prevalent in retail kimchi and artisan cheeses by metagenomic and culture analyses. Representative AR pathogens of importance in nosocomial infections, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens, and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), as well as commensals and lactic acid bacteria, were characterized; some exhibited an extremely high minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against antibiotics of clinical significance. Exposing fermented food microbiota to representative antibiotics further led to a boost of the corresponding antibiotic and multidrug-resistance gene pools, as well as disturbed microbiota, including the rise of previously undetectable pathogens. These results revealed an underestimated public health risk associated with fermented food intervention at the current stage, particularly for susceptible populations with compromised gut integrity and immune functions seeking gut microbiota rescue. The findings call for productive intervention of foodborne AR via technology innovation and strategic movements to mitigate unnecessary, massive damages to the host gut microbiota due to orally administered or biliary excreted antibiotics.

Abstract
The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment exacerbates the contamination of these genes; therefore, the role plants play in the transmission of resistance genes in the food chain requires further research. Giant pandas consume different bamboo parts at different times, which provides the possibility of investigating how a single food source can affect the variation in the spread of ARGs. In this study, metagenomic analysis and the Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database (CARD) database were used to annotate ARGs and the differences in gut microbiota ARGs during the consumption of bamboo shoots, leaves, and culms by captive giant pandas. These ARGs were then compared to investigate the impact of bamboo part consumption on the spread of ARGs. The results showed that the number of ARGs in the gut microbiota of the subjects was highest during the consumption of bamboo leaves, while the variety of ARGs was highest during the consumption of shoots. Escherichia coli, which poses a higher risk of ARG dissemination, was significantly higher in the leaf group, while Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and Raoultella were significantly higher in the shoot group. The ARG risk brought by bamboo shoots and leaves may originate from soil and environmental pollution. It is recommended to handle the feces of giant pandas properly and regularly monitor the antimicrobial and virulence genes in their gut microbiota to mitigate the threat of antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
The present study evaluated antibiotic resistance (ABR) in bacteria isolated from different food wastes viz., meat slaughterhouses, dairy and restaurants. About 120 strains isolated from the food waste were subjected to ABR screening. More than 50% of all the strains were resistant to Vancomycin, Neomycin and Methicilin, which belong to third-generation antibiotics. Two lactic acid bacteria (LAB) free of ABR were chosen to be used as starter cultures in media formulated from food waste. Food waste combination (FWC-4) was found to be on par with the nutrient broth in biomass production. The non-ABR LAB strains showed excellent probiotic properties, and in the fed-batch fermentation process, adding a nitrogen source (soya protein) enhanced the microbial biomass (3.7 g/l). Additionally, exopolysaccharide production was found to be 2.3 g/l. This study highlights the ABR incidence in food waste medium and its economic advantage for starter culture biomass production.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) being a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes, tend to disseminate antibiotic resistance that possibly pose a threat to human and animal health. Therefore, the study focuses on the prevalence of macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin- (MLS) resistance among LAB isolated from various food samples. Diverse phenotypic and genotypic MLS resistance were determined among the LAB species (n = 146) isolated from fermented food products (n = 6) and intestine of food-producing animals (n = 4). Double disc, triple disc diffusion and standard minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests were evaluated for phenotypic MLS resistance. Specific primers for MLS resistance genes were used for the evaluation of genotypic MLS resistance and gene expressions using total RNA of each isolate at different antibiotic concentrations. The isolates identified are Levilactobacillus brevis (n = 1), Enterococcus hirae (n = 1), Limosilactobacillus fermentum (n = 2), Pediococcus acidilactici (n = 3), Enterococcus faecalis (n = 1). The MIC tests along with induction studies displayed cMLSb, L phenotype, M phenotype, KH phenotype, I phenotype resistance among MLS antibiotics. Genotypic evaluation tests revealed the presence of ermB, mefA/E, msrA/B and msrC genes. Also, gene expression studies displayed increased level of gene expression to the twofold increased antibiotic concentrations. In the view of global health concern, this study identified that food samples and food-producing animals represent source of antibiotic resistant LAB that can disseminate resistance through food chain. This suggests the implementation of awareness in the use of antibiotics as growth promoters and judicious use of antibiotics in veterinary sectors in order to prevent the spread of antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to antibacterial, and antibiofilm activity of two Lactobacillus strains secretome and extraction against E. coli isolated from women with urinary tract infection (UTI). We isolated 100 E. coli samples from women with UTI. Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei characteristics were evaluated, and their secretome and extraction were prepared. The antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of secretome and extraction of both Lactobacillus strains were evaluated against isolated E. coli samples. L. acidophilus and L. casei were able to tolerate pH 3, bile salts, and pancreatic enzymes. Both probiotics were not resistant to antibiotics and demonstrated an appropriate ability to adhere to the intestinal epithelial cells. Secretome and extraction of L. acidophilus and L. casei strains showed a good antibacterial and antibiofilm against E. coli isolates. Generally, present study suggested that the secretome and extraction of L. acidophilus and L. casei strains exhibits a good antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
To date, probiotic bacteria are used in the diet and have various clinical applications. There are reports of antibiotic resistance genes in these bacteria that can transfer to other commensal and pathogenic bacteria. The aim of this study was to use whole-genome sequence analysis to identify antibiotic resistance genes in a group of bacterial with probiotic properties. Also, this study followed existing issues about the importance and presence of antibiotic resistance genes in these bacteria and the dangers that may affect human health in the future. In the current study, a collection of 126 complete probiotic bacterial genomes was analyzed for antibiotic resistance genes. The results of the current study showed that there are various resistance genes in these bacteria that some of them are transferable to other bacteria. The tet(W) tetracycline resistance gene was more than other antibiotic resistance genes in these bacteria and this gene was found in Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. In our study, the most numbers of antibiotic resistance genes were transferred with mobile genetic elements. We propose that probiotic companies before the use of a micro-organism as a probiotic, perform an antibiotic susceptibility testing for a large number of antibiotics. Also, they perform analysis of complete genome sequence for prediction of antibiotic resistance genes.

Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11123435.

Abstract
Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) can cause infection in poultry, livestock, and humans. Although the use of antimicrobials as feed additives is prohibited, the previous indiscriminate use and poor regulatory oversight in some parts of the world have resulted in increased bacterial resistance to antimicrobials, including cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones, which are among the limited treatment options available against NTS. This study aimed to isolate potential probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains from the poultry gut to inhibit fluoroquinolone and cephalosporin resistant MDR Salmonella Typhimurium and S. Enteritidis. The safety profile of the LAB isolates was evaluated for the hemolytic activity, DNase activity, and antibiotic resistance. Based on the safety results, three possible probiotic LAB candidates for in vitro Salmonella control were chosen. Candidate LAB isolates were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing as Lactobacillus reuteri PFS4, Enterococcus faecium PFS13, and Enterococcus faecium PFS14. These strains demonstrated a good tolerance to gastrointestinal-related stresses, including gastric acid, bile, lysozyme, and phenol. In addition, the isolates that were able to auto aggregate had the ability to co-aggregate with MDR S. Typhimurium and S. Enteritidis. Furthermore, LAB strains competitively reduced the adhesion of pathogens to porcine mucin Type III in co-culture studies. The probiotic combination of the selected LAB isolates inhibited the biofilm formation of S. Typhimurium FML15 and S. Enteritidis FML18 by 90% and 92%, respectively. In addition, the cell-free supernatant (CFS) of the LAB culture significantly reduced the growth of Salmonella in vitro. Thus, L. reuteri PFS4, E. faecium PFS13, and E. faecium PFS 14 are potential probiotics that could be used to control MDR S. Typhimurium and S. Enteritidis in poultry. Future investigations are required to elucidate the in vivo potential of these probiotic candidates as Salmonella control agents in poultry and animal feed.

Abstract
In this work, the antibiotic resistance of 218 isolates to 9 different antibiotics was analyzed with minimum inhibitory concentration method. All Lactobacillus pentosus strains were found to be resistant to streptomycin sulfate and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride. Lactococcus lactis strains were resistant to streptomycin sulfate. Specifically, 90% Klebsiella oxytoca and all Citrobacter freundii strains were resistant to ampicillin sodium. 30% K. oxytoca strains were resistant to ciprofloxacin hydrochloride. All Bacillus albus strains were resistant to erythromycin and 80% strains were resistant to ampicillin sodium. Results from PCR analysis revealed that 90 isolates carried the aadE gene. The tetM gene was detected in four L. pentosus isolates. And the streptomycin resistant gene aadA was detected in one L. pentosus isolate. Metagenome analysis revealed that 74.7% genes associated with antibiotic resistance were antibiotic resistance genes. The tetM and aadA genes, detected in PCR analysis, were also retrieved from the paocai metagenome. In brief, this study generated the antibiotic resistance profile of some paocai-originated bacteria strains. L. pentosus found in the final edible paocai were inherently resistant to antibiotics, such as streptomycin and ciprofloxacin. Results in this work reminds us to carefully choose the LAB strains for traditional Chinese paocai production to avoid potential spreading of antibiotic resistant genes.

[PMID: 34019121 DOI: 10.1007/s00284-021-02521-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2020] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this research was to evaluate the probiotic properties of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from fermented Pak-Sian, a traditional Thai food in the northeastern region of Thailand (Kalasin, Sakon Nakhon, Maha Sarakham, and Khon Kaen Provinces). A total of 61 LAB isolates isolated from selective MRS agar were screened by SDS-PAGE and identified by 16S rDNA analysis. Seventeen bacterial strains were found consisting of Pediococcus pentosaceus (6 strains) Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (5 strains), Levilactobacillus brevis (1 strain), Lactobacillus fermentum (3 strains), and Weissella cibaria (2 strains). A PH tree grouped 17 LAB strains into 5 clusters with three clusters only recorded from Sakon Nakhon Province. All strains were tested for probiotic properties. Results showed that 14 strains had the ability to resist pH 2.5 as resistant to bile salts and survive in gastric juices and the intestinal tract. LAB demonstrated antimicrobial activity against 4 pathogens: Staphylococcus aureus TISTR746, Salmonella typhimurium TISTR1472, Escherichia coli ATCC25922, and Bacillus cereus TISTR1449. Most LAB strains were resistant to all antibiotics tested, while some Lactobacillus strains were moderately susceptible to chloramphenicol, rifampicin, and ampicillin. None of the 14 strains produced biogenic amine and eight showed no hemolysis activity, indicating the safety of these strains. These 8 strains were selected to determine mucin adhesion capacity. Lactobacillus fermentum SK324 and Levilactobacillus brevis SK335 showed the highest adhesion capacity of 2.39 and 2.34%, respectively. These two strains showed promise as alternative starter cultures to improve probiotic health benefits of local fermented Pak-Sian products as a functional food.

Abstract
The emergence of lactic acid bacteria (LABs) resistant to existing antimicrobial drugs is a growing health crisis. To decrease the overuse of antibiotics, molecular diagnostic systems that can rapidly determine the presence of antibiotic resistance (AR) genes in LABs from yogurt samples are needed. This paper describes a fully integrated, miniaturized plastic chip and closed-tube detection chemistry that performs multiplex nucleic acid amplification. High-throughput identification of AR genes was achieved through this approach, and six AR genes were analyzed simultaneously in < 2 h. This time-to-result included the time required for the extraction of DNA. The detection limit of the chip was 103 CFU mL-1, which was consistent with that of tube LAMP. We detected and identified multiple DNAs, including streptomycin, tetracycline, and vancomycin resistance-associated genes, with complete concordance to the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method.Key Points• A miniaturized chip was presented, and multiplex nucleic acid amplification was performed.• The device can be integrated with LAMP for rapid detection of antibiotic resistance genes.• The approach had a high throughput of AR gene analysis in lactic acid bacteria.

Abstract
Probiotics are live microorganisms which when consumed in large number together with a food promote the health of the consumer. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro probiotic properties of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from traditional Ethiopian fermented Teff injera dough, Ergo, and Kocho products. A total of 90 LAB were isolated, of which 4 (4.44%) isolates showed 45.35–97.11% and 38.40–90.49% survival rates at pH values (2, 2.5, and 3) for 3 and 6 h, in that order. The four acid-tolerant isolates were found tolerant to 0.3% bile salt for 24 h with 91.37 to 97.22% rate of survival. The acid-and-bile salt-tolerant LAB isolates were found inhibiting some food-borne test pathogenic bacteria to varying degrees. All acid-and-bile-tolerant isolates displayed varying sensitivity to different antibiotics. The in vitro adherence to stainless steel plates of the 4 screened probiotic LAB isolates were ranged from 32.75 to 36.30% adhesion rate. The four efficient probiotic LAB isolates that belonged to Lactobacillus species were identified to the strain level using 16S rDNA gene sequence comparisons and, namely, were Lactobacillus plantarum strain CIP 103151, Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans strain NBRC 15906, Lactobacillus paracasei strain NBRC 15889, and Lactobacillus plantarum strain JCM 1149. The four Lactobacillus strains were found to be potentially useful to produce probiotic products.

Abstract
Lactobacillus species are widely used as probiotics and starter cultures for a variety of foods, supported by a long history of safe usage. Although more than 35 species meet the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) criteria for qualified presumption of safety status, the safety of Lactobacillus species and their carriage of antibiotic resistance (AR) genes is under continuing ad hoc review. To comprehensively update the identification of AR in the genus Lactobacillus, we determined the antibiotic susceptibility patterns of 182 Lactobacillus type strains and compared these phenotypes to their genotypes based on genome-wide annotations of AR genes. Resistances to trimethoprim, vancomycin, and kanamycin were the most common phenotypes. A combination of homology-based screening and manual annotation identified genes encoding resistance to aminoglycosides (20 sequences), tetracycline (18), erythromycin (6), clindamycin (60), and chloramphenicol (42). In particular, the genes aac(3) and lsa, involved in resistance to aminoglycosides and clindamycin, respectively, were found in Lactobacillus spp. Acquired determinants predicted to code for tetracycline and erythromycin resistance were detected in Lactobacillus ingluviei, Lactobacillus amylophilus, and Lactobacillus amylotrophicus, flanked in the genome by mobile genetic elements with potential for horizontal transfer.IMPORTANCELactobacillus species are generally considered to be nonpathogenic and are used in a wide variety of foods and products for humans and animals. However, many of the species examined in this study have antibiotic resistance levels which exceed those recommended by the EFSA, suggesting that these cutoff values should be reexamined in light of the genetic basis for resistance discussed here. Our data provide evidence for rationally revising the regulatory guidelines for safety assessment of lactobacilli entering the food chain as starter cultures, food preservatives, or probiotics and will facilitate comprehensive genotype-based assessment of strains for safety screening.

Abstract
Lactobacillus fermentum colonizing gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts of humans and animals is widely used in manufacturing of fermented products and as probiotics. These bacteria may function as vehicles of antibiotic resistance genes, which can be transferred to pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, monitoring and control of transmissible antibiotic resistance determinants in these microorganisms is necessary to approve their safety status. The aim of this study was to characterize erythromycin and tetracycline resistance of L. fermentum isolates and to estimate the potential transfer of resistance genes from lactobacilli to the other Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Among six L. fermentum strains isolated from human feces and commercial dairy products, five strains demonstrated phenotypic resistance to tetracycline. PCR screening for antibiotic resistance determinants revealed plasmid-located tetracycline resistance genes tet(K) and tet(M) in all strains and erythromycin resistance genes erm(B) in the chromosome of L. fermentum 5-1 and erm(C) in the plasmid of L. fermentum 3-4. All tested lactobacilli lacked conjugative transposon Tn916 and were not able to transfer tetracycline resistance genes to Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Listeria monocytogenes, Acinetobacter baumannii, Citrobacter freundii, and Escherichia coli by filter mating. Staphylococcus haemolyticus did not accept erythromycin resistance genes from corresponding Lactobacillus strains. Thus, in the present study, L. fermentum was not implicated in the spread of erythromycin and tetracycline resistance, but still these strains pose the threat to the environment and human health because they harbored erythromycin and tetracycline resistance genes in their plasmids and therefore should not be used in foods and probiotics.

Abstract
The study aimed to analyze the effects of sub-inhibitory concentrations of gentamicin on the expressions of high level aminoglycoside resistant (HLAR) bifunctional aac(6')Ie-aph(2″)Ia, biofilm and chaperone genes in Lactobacillus plantarum. The analysis of the biofilm formation in five isolates obtained from chicken sausages indicated their role in exhibiting phenotypic resistance based on the varied MIC values despite carrying the bifunctional gene. The biofilm formation significantly increased when L. plantarum MCC 3011 was grown in sub-inhibitory concentrations of gentamicin (4 μg/ml), kanamycin (8 μg/ml) and streptomycin (2 μg/ml). Thirty day gentamicin selection increased minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values from 4 to 64 and 2 to 256 fold for gentamicin and kanamycin, respectively when compared to the parental cultures. Expression studies revealed that constant exposure to gentamicin had induced chaperon [groEL] and the bifunctional gene, aac(6')Ie-aph(2″)Ia upto nine fold. Induction of groEL, groES and lamC genes in gentamicin (4 μg/ml) preincubated MCC 3011 indicated their significant role in aminoglycoside mediated response. Our study indicates that constant exposure to sub inhibitory concentrations of gentamicin allows L. plantarum to adapt against higher doses of aminoglycosides. This highlights the risks and food safety issues associated with the use of aminoglycosides in livestock and consumption of farm oriented fermented food products.

Abstract
Lactobacillus buchneri strain WPZ001 that could efficiently produce gamma-aminobutyric acid was isolated from Chinese fermented sausages. Optimal cultivation conditions for gamma-aminobutyric acid production in L. buchneri WPZ001 were determined, and xylose was found to be the best carbon source. Using xylose as the sole carbon source, 70 g/L gamma-aminobutyric acid was produced by flask fermentation of L. buchneri WPZ001 for 48 h, and the harvested cells could continue to convert monosodium glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid in buffer and produce 59 g gamma-aminobutyric acid after eight runs of biotransformation; the total yield of gamma-aminobutyric acid reached 129 g/L. This combination strategy also worked well when the low-cost corncob hydrolysate was used as the sole carbon source, and the yield of gamma-aminobutyric acid reached 117 g/L. The results indicate that L. buchneri WPZ001 has great potential for industrial production of gamma-aminobutyric acid.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF WORK Purpose of this work is to synthesize γ-aminobutyric acid by glutamate-producing species expressing Lactobacillus brevis-derived glutamate decarboxylase genes, i.e. recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum strains, which directly convert endogenous L-glutamate precursor into γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) through single-step fermentation. To express exogenous glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) in an L-glutamate-producing strain, Lactobacillus brevis Lb85, which can produce GABA, was used. Two Lb85 GAD genes, gadB1 and gadB2, and the ancillary genes, gadC-gadB2 and gadR-gadC-gadB2, were cloned separately into pDXW-8 and transformed into C. glutamicum. All four recombinant strains produced GABA whereas the wild-type strain did not. GABA produced by the recombinant strains continually increased after 36 h of fermentation. Although the mRNA levels of LbgadB2 and LbgadC were similar among the corresponding recombinants, GABA production of pDXW-8/gadRCB2 at 72 h (2.15 g/l) was higher than that of pDXW-8/gadCB2 (1.25 g/l) and pDXW-8/gadB2 (0.88 g/l). Thus, by introducing Lbgad genes, C. glutamicum was genetically engineered to synthesize GABA using endogenous L-glutamate.
