Abstract
Yogurt production with starter culture at 41 °C in the presence of plant water extracts (Momordica grosvenori, Psidium guajava, Lycium barbarum or Garcinia mangostana) were studied to examine the effects on acidification, physicochemical properties, microbial growth, proteolytic activity, and exopolysaccharide (EPS) content. All plant-based yogurt reached a pH of 4.5 faster (300–330 min) than plain-yogurt (360 min). All plant water extracts stimulated Lactobacillus spp. (∼7.4 log10 CFU/mL) and Streptococcus thermophilus (8.20–8.50 log10 CFU/mL) growth except for G. mangostana which marginally inhibited Lactobacillus spp. growth (7.21 log10 CFU/mL). M. grosvenori, L. barbarum, and G. mangonstana were significantly affected proteolysis of milk proteins (46.2 ± 0.8, 39.9 ± 0.5, & 35.8 ± 0.1 µg/mL; respectively) compared to plain-yogurt (26.3 ± 0.4 µg/mL). The presence of G. mangostana and L. barbarum resulted in an increase (p < 0.05) of total solids content (∼15.0%) and water holding capacity in yogurt (28.1 ± 1.2 & 26.5 ± 0.3%; respectively; p < 0.05). In addition, M. grosvenori water extract enhanced (p < 0.05) syneresis of yogurt (1.78 ± 0.30%). L. barbarum yogurt showed the highest EPS concentration (220.9 ± 12.4 µg/L) among yogurt samples. In conclusion, the presence of plant water extracts positively altered yogurt fermentation, enhanced proteolysis of milk protein, and induced EPS production.

Sirin S, Aslim B. Characterization of lactic acid bacteria derived exopolysaccharides for use as a defined neuroprotective agent against amyloid beta 1-42-induced apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells. Sci Rep 2020; 10:8124.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a disease characterized by cerebral neuronal degeneration and loss in a progressive manner. Amyloid beta (Aβ) in the brain is toxic to neurons, being a main risk factor for initiation and continuation of cognitive deterioration in AD. Neurotoxicity of Aβ origin is also linked to oxidative stress characterized by excessive lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, changes in antioxidant systems, and cerebral DNA damage in AD. Furthermore, Aβ can induce oxidative neuronal cell death by a mitochondrial dysfunction. Cellular injury caused by oxidative stress can be possibly prevented by boosting or promoting bodily oxidative defense system by supplying antioxidants in diet or as medications. However, most synthetic antioxidants are found to have cytotoxicity, which prevents their safe use, and limits their administration. For this reason, more attention has been paid to the natural non-toxic antioxidants. One of the most promising groups of non-toxic antioxidative compounds is thought to be polysaccharides. This study investigated the characterization and protective action exerted by exopolysaccharides (EPSs) originated from Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus B3 and Lactobacillus plantarum GD2 to protect from apoptotic activity exerted by Aβ1-42 among SH-SY5Y cells. We characterized EPSs by elemental analysis, FTIR, AFM, SEM, and XRD. The antioxidant effects of EPSs were determined by the DPPH free radical scavenging activity, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, metal ion chelating activity, lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity, and superoxide anion scavenging activity method. The protective effects of EPSs were determined by flow cytometry and RT-PCR. Mannose ratio, molecular weight, functional groups, surface morphology, and amorphous character structure of EPSs are thought to play a role in the protective effect of EPSs. EPSs reduced apoptotic activity of Aβ1-42 in addition to their depolarizing effect on mitochondrial membrane potential in concentration-dependent manner. These observations contribute the inclusion of EPSs among the therapeutic options used to manage various neurological disorders in the traditional medicine in a scientific manner, indicating that EPSs may be promising natural chemical constituents that need advanced research and development for pharmacological therapy of AD.

Arch Microbiol 2020; 202:875-885. [PMID: 31894393 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-019-01799-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2019] [Revised: 12/04/2019] [Accepted: 12/15/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to assess the effects of some culture conditions [temperature (20, 30, 37 °C), incubation time (48, 72, 120 h), pH (5.0, 6.0, 7.0), NaCl concentration (0, 3, 6%), carbon (glucose, fructose, lactose), nitrogen (sodium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, bacto-peptone), and mineral sources (calcium carbonate, ferric chloride)] on the exopolysaccharide (EPS) production by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains (belonging to Lactobacillus (L.) plantarum, L. namurensis, and Pediococcus (P.) ethanolidurans species) isolated from naturally fermented pickles. The maximum EPS production was determined at 30 °C and pH 6.0. The highest amount of EPS was obtained after 120 h of incubation, with glucose as carbon source, bacto-peptone as nitrogen source and calcium carbonate as mineral source for most of the tested strains. The EPS formation was not stimulated by NaCl, indicating that EPS formation of the tested strains was not a stress response. L. plantarum MF460 produced the highest amount of EPS at 30 °C after 48 h of incubation, which was 515.48 mg/L. One of the most pronounced results of this study was that the EPS production of L. plantarum MF556 strain was increased up to 512.81 mg/L with the addition of calcium carbonate to MRS medium. The effect of different culture conditions, particularly of incubation time, carbon, nitrogen, and mineral sources, on the EPS production often vary depending on the strain. Therefore, these apparent strain specific results demonstrated that the optimum culture conditions for the enhanced EPS production should be specifically determined for each LAB strain.

Abstract
Several mechanism and non-mechanism-based studies supporting the claim that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains confer health benefits and play immune-modulatory roles were examined in this review. Probiotic applications of LAB on global burdens such as obesity and type-2 diabetes were discussed as well as the use of yoghurt and ice cream as important vehicles to convey several beneficial LAB strains. Probiotic and symbiotic dairy products may be used in the nearest future to treat a variety of health disorders. Current studies suggest that lactic acid bacteria possess anti-obesity and anti-diabetic propensities on their hosts and thus can play a crucial role in human health care. Research in the rheological and physicochemical properties of ice cream as well as its applications are also on the increase. These applications face certain hurdles including technological (for less developed countries), consumer acceptability of new functional foods may be influenced by culture, ethics or religion. There is need for more studies on the genetic basis for probiotic properties which will give further understanding regarding novel manipulation skills and applicability in nutrition and health sectors. More studies confirming the direct effects of probiotic LABs in lowering the spread of food-borne and other pathogens are also anticipated.

Abstract
In this study, a total of 32 isolated strains and 5 reference strains of dairy propionibacteria were analyzed for acid and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production in skim milk and yeast extract-lactate broth (YEL) media in order to investigate the physiological background and preservative role of acid and EPS. The effects of final culture pH and optical density on acid and EPS production were also determined. On average, all strains produced more acid and reached lower final pH values in skim milk than in YEL medium. While the correlations obtained between the acid produced by propionibacterium strains and their final culture pH in skim milk medium were significant (P < 0.01), no correlations were found between optical density, final pH, and produced acid in YEL medium. Sixteen isolated and five reference strains of propionibacteria were tested further for the ability to produce propionic and acetic acids. On average, Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii and P. freudenreichii subsp. freudenreichii strains produced higher amounts of propionic and acetic acids than did Propionibacterium jensenii in YEL medium. The acid produced by these strains may be used as a preservative in the food industry for replacement or reduction of the increasing use of chemical additives. The EPS production by propionibacterium strains during growth in YEL medium was 72 to 168 mg/liter, while in skim milk it was 94 to 359 mg/liter. The monomer compositions of the EPSs formed by the six selected dairy propionibacteria strains were analyzed. The EPSs may have applications as food grade additives and viscosity-stabilizing agents.

Abstract
In this study, the metabolic activities (in terms of quantities of the produced lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and exopolysaccharides) of 8 strains of Lactobacillus spp., Lactococcus spp., and Pediococcus spp., were determined. Lactic acid levels produced by strains were 8.1 to 17.4 mg/L. The L. acidophilus Z1L strain produced the maximum amount (3.18 μg/mL) of hydrogen peroxide. The exopolysaccharides (EPS) production by the strains was ranged between 173 and 378 mg/L. The susceptibility of 7 different antibiotics against these strains was also tested. All strains were found to be sensitive to ampicillin. The tolerance of the strains to low pH, their resistance to bile salts of strains, and their abilities to autoaggregate and coaggregate with Escherichia coli ATCC 11229 were also evaluated. High EPS-producing strains showed significant autoaggregation and coaggregation ability with test bacteria (P < 0.01). A correlation also was determined between EPS production and acid-bile tolerance (P < 0.05). EPS production possibly affects or is involved in acid-bile tolerance and aggregation of Lactobacillus spp., Lactococcus spp., and Pediococcus spp. strains and supports the potential of L. acidophilus Z1L strain as new probiotic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress plays a role in disease initiation and progression in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and manipulation of this pathway may attenuate disease progress. In this study, the effect of exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing probiotic bacteria on gut oxidative damage was evaluated in a rat model of experimental colitis. METHODS Colitis was induced by intracolonic administration of acetic acid. Rats were treated daily with two probiotic strains, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus B3 strain (EPS of 211 mg/l; high-EPS group) or L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus A13 strain (EPS of 27 mg/l; low-EPS group), which were given directly into the stomach. Non-colitis-fed control and preventative groups were only treated with the high-EPS producing strain. Antioxidant enzyme activities (superoxide dismutase, catalase, total glutathione, reduced glutathione, glutathione disulfide) and lipid peroxidation were measured in colonic tissue samples after a treatment period of 7 days. RESULTS Significant oxidative damage was associated with a higher level of malondialdehyde (MDA) activity and reduced antioxidant enzyme activities in the colitis model group. All antioxidant enzyme activities were higher in both probiotic-treated groups compared with those of the colitis model group (P < 0.001). Lipid peroxidation was significantly ameliorated in both probiotic groups. The improvement of oxidative stress parameters was significantly more in the high-EPS group than in the low-EPS group (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS EPS-producing probiotic bacteria significantly attenuate oxidative stress in experimental colitis. Increased EPS production gives rise to a better probiotic function. These results suggest that EPS molecules could revaluate probiotic strains and exert their beneficial effects on the host and this may have a therapeutic potential.
