Effects of bacteriocin-producing Lactiplantibacillus plantarum on bacterial community and fermentation profile of whole-plant corn silage and its in vitro ruminal fermentation, microbiota, and CH 4 emissions. J Anim Sci Biotechnol 2024; 15:107. [PMID: 39107819 PMCID: PMC11304621 DOI: 10.1186/s40104-024-01065-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Silage is widely used to formulate dairy cattle rations, and the utilization of antibiotics and methane emissions are 2 major problems for a sustainable and environmentally beneficial ruminant production systems. Bacteriocin has received considerable attention because of its potential as an alternative to antibiotics in animal husbandry. However, the impact of bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria on the microbiological conversion process of whole-plant corn silage and rumen fermentation remains limited. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 2 class IIa bacteriocin-producing strains Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ATCC14917 and CICC24194 on bacterial community composition and ensiling profiles of whole-plant corn silage and its in vitro rumen fermentation, microbiota, and CH4 emissions. RESULTS Both bacteriocin-producing strains increased the lactic acid concentration in silage fermented for 7 d, whereas the lowest lactic acid was observed in the ATCC14917 inoculated silage fermented for 90 d (P < 0.05). The highest DM content was observed in the CICC24194 treatment (P < 0.05), and the silages treated with both strains had the lowest DM loss (P < 0.05). Bacteriocin-producing strains promoted the growth of Levilactobacillus brevis on d 60 of ensiling. In addition, treatment with bacteriocin-producing strains increased the in vitro DM digestibility (P < 0.05) and decreased the CH4 production (P < 0.05). The results of random forest and clustering analyses at the genus level showed that ATCC14917 increased the relative abundance of the influential variable Bacillus compared to that in the control group, whereas CICC24194 decreased the relative abundance of the influential variable Ruminococcaceae UCG-005. The CICC24194 treatment had the lowest total bacterial, fungal, protozoan, and methanogen populations (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Both class IIa bacteriocin-producing L. plantarum strains improved the fermentation quality of whole-plant corn silage by regulating the bacterial community composition during ensiling, with CICC24194 being the most effective. Both bacteriocin-producing strains mitigated CH4 production and improved digestibility by modulating the interactions among rumen bacteria, protozoa, methanogens, and the composition of fibrolytic bacteria.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 248:125932. [PMID: 37482152 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
The present study aimed to purify and characterize a novel low-molecular-weight antimicrobial peptide (AMP) named as PNMGL2 produced by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NMGL2. The AMP was effectively separated and purified by ethyl acetate extraction and DEAE-Sepharose anion exchange chromatography. Tricine-SDS-PAGE of the purified AMP showed a major protein band below 1.7 kDa, which was identified by MALDI-TOF MS to be a hexapeptide LNFLKK (761.95 Da), and structurally characterized to be combination of helixes and random coil by a PEP-FOLD 3 De novo approach. The antimicrobial activity of LNFLKK was confirmed by chemical synthesis of the peptide that showed clear inhibition (MIC 7.8 mg/mL) against both Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes), and Gram-negative bacteria (Enterobacter sakazakii, Escherichia coli and Shigella flexneri). PNMGL2 was pH resistant (pH 2-9), heat stable (121 °C, 30 min), and protease sensitive. Treatment of UV rays, sodium chloride and organic solvents did not decrease the activity. Sequencing of the whole genome of L. plantarum NMGL2 revealed presence of a bacteriocin gene cluster with two putative bacteriocin genes (ORF4 and ORF5) that were not expressed, confirming the significance of PNMGL2 contributing the antimicrobial activity of the strain. This study demonstrated the low-molecular-weight AMP that was uncharacterized in the relevant available databases, suggesting its potential application as a novel natural food preservative.

Abstract
Probiotics, live microorganisms that confer health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts, have gained significant attention for their potential therapeutic applications. The beneficial effects of probiotics are believed to stem from their ability to enhance intestinal barrier function, inhibit pathogens, increase beneficial gut microbes, and modulate immune responses. However, clinical studies investigating the effectiveness of probiotics have yielded conflicting results, potentially due to the wide variety of probiotic species and strains used, the challenges in controlling the desired number of live microorganisms, and the complex interactions between bioactive substances within probiotics. Bacterial cell wall components, known as effector molecules, play a crucial role in mediating the interaction between probiotics and host receptors, leading to the activation of signaling pathways that contribute to the health-promoting effects. Previous reviews have extensively covered different probiotic effector molecules, highlighting their impact on immune homeostasis. Understanding how each probiotic component modulates immune activity at the molecular level may enable the prediction of immunological outcomes in future clinical studies. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of the structural and immunological features of probiotic effector molecules, focusing primarily on Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. We also discuss current gaps and limitations in the field and propose directions for future research to enhance our understanding of probiotic-mediated immunomodulation.

Bacteriocin-Nanoconjugates (Bac10307-AgNPs) Biosynthesized from Lactobacillus acidophilus-Derived Bacteriocins Exhibit Enhanced and Promising Biological Activities. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020403. [PMID: 36839725 PMCID: PMC9967518 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15020403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The proteinaceous compounds produced by lactic acid bacteria are called bacteriocins and have a wide variety of bioactive properties. However, bacteriocin's commercial availability is limited due to short stability periods and low yields. Therefore, the objective of this study was to synthesize bacteriocin-derived silver nanoparticles (Bac10307-AgNPs) extracted from Lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus), which may have the potential to increase the bioactivity of bacteriocins and overcome the hurdles. It was found that extracted and purified Bac10307 had a broad range of stability for both temperature (20-100 °C) and pH (3-12). Further, based on Sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis, its molecular weight was estimated to be 4.2 kDa. The synthesized Bac10307-AgNPs showed a peak of surface plasmon resonance at 430 nm λmax. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) confirmed the presence of biological moieties, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) coupled with Energy dispersive X-Ray (EDX) confirmed that AgNPs were spherical and irregularly shaped, with a size range of 9-20 nm. As a result, the Bac10307-AgNPs displayed very strong antibacterial activity with MIC values as low as 8 μg/mL for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), when compared to Bac10307 alone. In addition, Bac10307-AgNPs demonstrated promising in vitro antioxidant activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) (IC50 = 116.04 μg/mL) and in vitro cytotoxicity against human liver cancer cells (HepG2) (IC50 = 135.63 μg/mL), more than Bac10307 alone (IC50 = 139.82 μg/mL against DPPH and 158.20 μg/mL against HepG2). Furthermore, a protein-protein molecular docking simulation study of bacteriocins with target proteins of different biological functions was also carried out in order to ascertain the interactions between bacteriocins and target proteins.

Abstract
Lactiplantibacillus (Lpb.) plantarum is a versatile species commonly found in a wide variety of ecological niches including dairy products and vegetables, while it may also occur as a natural inhabitant of the human gastrointestinal tract. Although Lpb. plantarum strains have been suggested to exert beneficial properties on their host, the precise mechanisms underlying these microbe–host interactions are still obscure. In this context, the genome-scale in silico analysis of putative probiotic bacteria represents a bottom–up approach to identify probiotic biomarkers, predict desirable functional properties, and identify potentially detrimental antibiotic resistance genes. In this study, we characterized the bacterial genomes of three Lpb. plantarum strains isolated from three distinct environments [strain IMC513 (from the human GIT), C904 (from table olives), and LT52 (from raw-milk cheese)]. A whole-genome sequencing was performed combining Illumina short reads with Oxford Nanopore long reads. The phylogenomic analyses suggested the highest relatedness between IMC513 and C904 strains which were both clade 4 strains, with LT52 positioned within clade 5 within the Lpb. plantarum species. The comparative genome analysis performed across several Lpb. plantarum representatives highlighted the genes involved in the key metabolic pathways as well as those encoding potential probiotic features in these new isolates. In particular, our strains varied significantly in genes encoding exopolysaccharide biosynthesis and in contrast to strains IMC513 and C904, the LT52 strain does not encode a Mannose-binding adhesion protein. The LT52 strain is also deficient in genes encoding complete pentose phosphate and the Embden–Meyerhof pathways. Finally, analyses using the CARD and ResFinder databases revealed that none of the strains encode known antibiotic resistance loci. Ultimately, the results provide better insights into the probiotic potential and safety of these three strains and indicate avenues for further mechanistic studies using these isolates.

Abstract
Ethnic fermented foods are known for their unique aroma, flavour, taste, texture and other sensory properties preferred by every ethnic community in this world culturally as parts of their eatables. Some beneficial microorganisms associated with fermented foods have several functional properties and health-promoting benefits. Bacteriocins are the secondary metabolites produced by the microorganisms mostly lactic acid bacteria present in the fermented foods which can act as lantibiotics against the pathogen bacteria. Several studies have been conducted regarding the isolation and characterization of potent strains as well as their association with different types of bacteriocins. Collective information regarding the gene organizations responsible for the potent effect of bacteriocins as lantibiotics, mode of action on pathogen bacterial cells is not yet available. This review focuses on the gene organizations, pathways include for bacteriocin and their mode of action for various classes of bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria in some ethnic fermented foods.

Abstract
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum has a strong carbohydrate utilization ability. This characteristic plays an important role in its gastrointestinal tract colonization and probiotic effects. L. plantarum LP-F1 presents a high carbohydrate utilization capacity. The genome analysis of 165 L. plantarum strains indicated the species has a plenty of carbohydrate metabolism genes, presenting a strain specificity. Furthermore, two-component systems (TCSs) analysis revealed that the species has more TCSs than other lactic acid bacteria, and the distribution of TCS also shows the strain specificity. In order to clarify the sugar metabolism mechanism under different carbohydrate fermentation conditions, the expressions of 27 carbohydrate metabolism genes, catabolite control protein A (CcpA) gene ccpA, and TCSs genes were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR technology. The correlation analysis between the expressions of regulatory genes and sugar metabolism genes showed that some regulatory genes were correlated with most of the sugar metabolism genes, suggesting that some TCSs might be involved in the regulation of sugar metabolism.

Abstract
Antioxidant activity is one of the important probiotic characteristics for lactic acid bacteria including Lactobacillus plantarum, which is used for food fermentation or as a probiotic supplement. L. plantarum FLPL05 is a novel strain originally isolated from a healthy elderly individual of longevity. The organism has been demonstrated to exhibit high antioxidant property. However, there are limited genomic insights into the antioxidant properties of this organism. In this study, we performed whole-genome analysis regarding its antioxidant property. L. plantarum FLPL05 exhibited higher antioxidant activity compared with that of L. plantarum strains ATCC14917, ATCC8014, and WCFS1. The antioxidant capacity of L. plantarum FLPL05 was genetically linked to its antioxidant system, i.e., glutathione and thioredoxin involved in global regulation of defense against hydrogen peroxide challenge. L. plantarum FLPL05 was further examined for its antioxidant potential in D-Gal-induced aging mice and exhibited a significant increase in the activity of serum glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and a decrease in the level of malondialdehyde (MDA). Moreover, our analyses exhibited a complete gene cluster including plnA, plnB, plnC, plnD, plnE, plnF, plnG, plnH, plnI, plnJ, plnK, plnM, plnN, plnO, plnP, plnQ, plnST, plnU, plnV, plnW, plnX, and plnY for production of bacteriocin. Our results suggest that L. plantarum FLPL05 could be a probiotic candidate.

Abstract
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum is one of the lactic acid bacteria species most used as probiotics and starter cultures in food production. Bacteriocin-producers Lpb. plantarum are also promising natural food preservatives. This study aimed to characterize Lpb. plantarum R23 and its bacteriocins (R23 bacteriocins). The genome sequence of Lpb. plantarum R23 was obtained by whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in an Illumina NovaSeq platform. The activity of Lpb. plantarum R23-produced bacteriocin against two Listeria monocytogenes strains (L7946 and L7947) was evaluated, and its molecular size was determined by tricine-SDS-PAGE. No virulence or antibiotic resistance genes were detected. Four 100% identical proteins to the class II bacteriocins (Plantaricin E, Plantaricin F, Pediocin PA-1 (Pediocin AcH), and Coagulin A) were found by WGS analysis. The small (<6.5 kDa) R23 bacteriocins were stable at different pH values (ranging from 2 to 8), temperatures (between 4 and 100 °C), detergents (all, except Triton X-100 and Triton X-114 at 0.01 g/mL), and enzymes (catalase and α-amylase), did not adsorb to the producer cells, had a bacteriostatic mode of action and their maximum activity (AU/mL = 12,800) against two L. monocytogenes strains occurred between 15 and 21 h of Lpb. plantarum R23 growth. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum R23 showed to be a promising bio-preservative culture because, besides being safe, it produces a stable bacteriocin or bacteriocins (harbors genes encoding for the production of four) inhibiting pathogens as L. monocytogenes. Further studies in different food matrices are required to confirm this hypothesis and its suitability as a future starter culture.

Abstract
Nowadays, consumers have become increasingly attentive to human health and the use of more natural products. Consequently, the demand for natural preservatives in the food industry is more frequent. This has led to intense research to discover new antimicrobial compounds of natural origin that could effectively fight foodborne pathogens. This research aims to safeguard the health of consumers and, above all, to avoid potentially harmful chemical compounds. Lactobacillus is a bacterial genus belonging to the Lactic Acid Bacteria and many strains are defined GRAS, generally recognized as safe. These strains are able to produce substances with antibacterial activity against food spoilage bacteria and contaminating pathogens: the bacteriocins. The aim of this review was to focus on this genus and its capability to produce antibacterial peptides. The review collected all the information from the last few years about bacteriocins produced by Lactobacillus strains, isolated from clinical or food samples, with remarkable antimicrobial activities useful for being exploited in the food field. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of their use and the possible ways of improvement for industrial applications were described.

Abstract
Fermentation processes have been used for centuries for food production and preservation. Besides the contribution of fermentation to food quality, recently, scientific interest in the beneficial nature of fermented foods as a reservoir of probiotic candidates is increasing. Fermented food microbes are gaining attention for their health-promoting potential and for being genetically related to human probiotic bacteria. Among them, Lactiplantibacillus (Lpb.) plantarum strains, with a long history in the food industry as starter cultures in the production of a wide variety of fermented foods, are being investigated for their beneficial properties which are similar to those of probiotic strains, and they are also applied in clinical interventions. Food-associated Lpb. plantarum showed a good adaptation and adhesion ability in the gastro-intestinal tract and the potential to affect host health through various beneficial activities, e.g., antimicrobial, antioxidative, antigenotoxic, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory, in several in vitro and in vivo studies. This review provides an overview of fermented-associated Lpb. plantarum health benefits with evidence from clinical studies. Probiotic criteria that fermented-associated microbes need to fulfil are also reported.

The draft genome of Staphylococcus warneri TRPF4, a bacteriocin producer with potent activity against the causative agent of Legionnaires' Disease. 3 Biotech 2020; 10:232.

Abstract
In this work, we present the draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus warneri strain TRPF4 consisting of 2,634,550 bp with a G + C content of 32.4%. The genome sequence includes 2466 protein-coding genes, 11 rRNAs and 62 tRNAs, in 33 contigs. Applying the Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology (RAST) a total of 1322 protein-coding genes were assigned to 393 subsystems. Also, a set of 1286 protein-coding genes with designated functions were assigned to 21 categories in the Cluster of Orthologous Groups (COG) database. Further analysis of BAGEL3 software demonstrated that the TRPF4 genome contains two gene clusters responsible for the synthesis of three bacteriocins, one warnericin RK and two delta-lysins. Besides, a novel delta-lysin of 3.48 kDa was identified for the first time. The three predicted bacteriocins were chemically synthesized and screened for the antimicrobial activity against a range of pathogens, exhibiting a potent and specific antimicrobial activity counter to L. pneumophila, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) ranging from 1.9 to 7.8 µg mL-1. These results indicate that the strain TRPF4 can produce bacteriocins with anti-Legionella activity. This was verified by the extracting the bacteriocins from the fermentation broth and testing against L. pneumophila. Additionally, the strain TRPF4 exhibited no cytotoxicity in mammalian cell lines. In summary, the genomic sequences and in vitro assays demonstrated the potential application of bacteriocins from S. warneri TRPF4 as a scaffold for further development of drugs against L. pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaires' Disease.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides in recent years have gained increased interest among scientists, health professionals and the pharmaceutical companies owing to their therapeutic potential. These are low molecular weight proteins with broad range antimicrobial and immuno modulatory activities against infectious bacteria (Gram positive and Gram negative), viruses and fungi. Inability of micro-organisms to develop resistance against most of the antimicrobial peptide has made them as an efficient product which can greatly impact the new era of antimicrobials. In addition to this these peptides also demonstrates increased efficacy, high specificity, decreased drug interaction, low toxicity, biological diversity and direct attacking properties. Pharmaceutical industries are therefore conducting appropriate clinical trials to develop these peptides as potential therapeutic drugs. More than 60 peptide drugs have already reached the market and several hundreds of novel therapeutic peptides are in preclinical and clinical development. Rational designing can be used further to modify the chemical and physical properties of existing peptides. This mini review will discuss the sources, mechanism and recent therapeutic applications of antimicrobial peptides in treatment of infectious diseases.

Abstract
Plasmid DNA of Lactobacillus plantarum PC518 was isolated by an improved method which contained a washing step for removing lysozyme. Three plasmid DNA libraries were constructed. A pair of outward primers was designed at both ends of the novel plasmid fragment obtained from plasmid DNA libraries, and the remainder of the circle plasmid was amplified by inverse PCR (iPCR). The whole sequence of plasmid was analyzed by the basic local alignment search tool, Tandem Repeats Finder, DNAMAN V6.0, DNASTAR and MEGA X software. The copy number was measured using quantitative real-time PCR. Plasmid extract showed 7 bands on agarose gel, indicating that L. plantarum PC518 contains multiple plasmids. The complete sequence of plasmid pLP60 was obtained by plasmid DNA libraries and iPCR. pLP60 is 6006 bp in length with a G + C content of 41.19 %, which encodes 8 open reading frames (ORFs). The ori site like theta-type could be located upstream of repB, which contains a short tandem repeats (sTR) and a long tandem repeats (lTR). RepB of pLP60 only had low similarity with Rep protein of known theta-type plasmids, but phylogenetic tree analysis showed that plasmids whose Rep proteins are similar to pLP60 have lTR at ori, and the conservativeness of lTR is consistent with similarity of Rep proteins, suggesting that RepB of pLP60 is a theta-replicating protein. So pLP60 was classified as class A of theta replication. The copy number of pLP60 was measured as 5 copies per cell by qPCR.

Abstract
Lactobacillus plantarum C4 (CECT 9567) was isolated from kefir and has been extensively studied because of its probiotic properties. Here we report the genome sequence of this strain. The genome consists of 3,221,350 bp, and contains 3058 CDSs with an average G + C content of 44.5%. The genome harbors genes encoding the AraC-family transcription regulator, the penicillin-binding protein Pbp2A, and the Na+/H+ antiporter NapA3, which have important roles in the survival of lactobacilli in the gastrointestinal tract. Also, the genome encodes the catalase KatE, NADH peroxidase and glutathione peroxidase, which enable anaerobic respiration, and a nitrate reductase complex, which enable anaerobic respiration. Additionally, genes encoding plantaricins and sactipeptides, and genes involved in the use of fructooligosaccharides and in the production of butyric acid were also identified. BLASTn analysis revealed that 91.4% of CDSs in C4 genome aligned with those of the reference strain L. plantarum WCFS1, with a mean identity of 98.96%. The genome information of L. plantarum C4 provides the basis for understanding the probiotic properties of C4 and to consider its use as a potential component of functional foods.

Abstract
Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized peptides or proteins possessing antibacterial activity against foodborne pathogens and spoilage bacteria. A novel bacteriocin, plantaricin LPL-1 was determined as a class IIa bacteriocin according to the YGNGV motif, and producer strain Lactobacillus plantarum LPL-1 was identified based on physio-biochemical characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence. The novel bacteriocin, plantaricin LPL-1 was purified by salt precipitation, cation exchange, gel filtration, and reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The molecular mass of plantaricin LPL-1 was 4347.8467 Da by Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) analysis and entire amino acid sequence of plantaricin LPL-1 was VIADKYYGNGVSCGKHTCTVDWGEAFSCSVSHLANFGHGKC. Plantaricin LPL-1 possessed the merits of easy degradation by proteases, wide pH stability (2-10), high thermal stability (121°C, 20 min), surfactants stability and bactericidal activity against foodborne spoilage and pathogens bacteria. The mode action and membrane permeabilization of plantaricin was identified. The information of plantaricin LPL-1 indicated that it is not only a novel class IIa bacteriocin, but also a promising natural and safe biologic preservative for the food preservation industry.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) es un patógeno emergente causante de enfermedades transmitidas por alimentos de consumo masivo principalmente cárnicos y lácteos. Actualmente se buscan diferentes estrategias para su control, entre ellas compuestos naturales producidos por otros microorganismos como ácidos orgánicos y otros compuestos como lactoferrina, lisozima y bacteriocinas, estas últimas producidas por especies de bacterias como Lactobacillus plantarum (Lp). El objetivo de esta investigación fue determinar el efecto de cepas de Lp aisladas de suero costeño sobre el control de crecimiento de L. monocytogenes inoculada en co-cultivos. Se realizaron curvas de crecimiento para Lm, Lp 60-1 y Lp 62-1 y co-cultivos de cada Lp con Lm. La cinética de crecimiento fue evaluada determinando la viabilidad durante 24h en agares selectivos. La tasa de crecimiento de L. monocytogenes inoculada como control en leche UHT y en co-cultivos, presentaron diferencias significativas (p<0,05) entre los tratamientos, evidenciando que el control alcanzó un valor promedio de tasa de crecimiento mayor (μmax =0,65 h-1), que el obtenido para los co-cultivos con Lp 60-1 y Lp 62-1 (μmax =0,22 h-1 y μmax =0,27 h-1 respectivamente). La mayor diferencia fue alcanzada en el co cultivo con Lp 60-1, obteniendo el menor valor promedio de tasa de crecimiento de Lm. Los resultados demuestran la eficiencia de las cepas de Lp (60-1 y 62-1) para el control de crecimiento de Lm en leche UHT comercial, siendo esta una alternativa para reducir el uso de aditivos químicos durante la producción de lácteos.

Abstract
The objective of this research was to obtain struvite from digested matter from a bio rural digester fed with bovine manure. To determine operating variables to recover struvite (PO43- and NH4+ ions), researchers developed an experiment design in which they evaluated the combined effect of the Mg2+: PO43- molar ratio (1.5:1; 2.5:1 and 3.5:1), reaction time (10, 50 and 90 min) and stirring speed (100, 450 and 800 rpm). The recovery rates obtained were 55±4.94 % and 58±7.72 % for NH4+ and PO43- respectively. The favorable conditions were 1.5 molar ratio, 50 minute reaction time and 450 rpm stirring speed. Struvite crystal formation and composition were confirmed using petrographic microscopy and infrared radiation. Struvite yield was 295.75 mg /l from digestate employed.
