Some lactic acid bacteria are able to produce exopolysaccharides that, based on localization, can be distinguished in free and capsular or cell-bound exopolysaccharides (CPS). Up to now, the former were the focus of current research, mainly because of the technofunctional benefits they exhibit on fermented dairy products. On the other hand, CPS affect the surface properties of bacteria cells and thus also the textural properties of fermented foods, but data are very scarce. As the cell surface properties are strongly strain dependent, we present a new approach to investigate the impact of CPS on cell surface hydrophobicity and moisture load. CPS positive and negative Streptococcus thermophilus and Weissella cibaria were subjected to ultrasonication suitable to detach CPS without cell damage. The success of the method was verified by scanning electron and light microscopy as well as by cultivation experiments. Before applying ultrasonication cells with CPS exhibiting an increased hydrophilic character, enhanced moisture load, and faster water adsorption compared to the cells after CPS removal, emphasizing the importance of CPS on the textural properties of fermented products. The ultrasonic treatment did not alter the cell surface properties of the CPS negative strains.

Abstract This paper reveals the technological properties of lactic acid bacteria isolated from raw milk (colostrum and mature milk) of Wagyu cattle raised in Okayama Prefecture, Japan. Isolates were identified based on their physiological and biochemical characteristics as well as 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Streptococcus lutetiensis and Lactobacillus plantarum showed high acid and diacetyl-acetoin production in milk after 24 h of incubation at 40 and 30°C, respectively. These strains are thought to have potential for use as starter cultures and adjunct cultures for fermented dairy products.

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are a serious bacterial pathological challenges all over the world, leading to respiratory infections, that’s why new strategies don’t cease to develop. Lactic acid bacteria having shown beneficial effects for years in various areas, may prove to be excellent candidates in medical field. The current research focused on the selection of lactic acid bacteria having the potential of an antibacterial activity against Gram negative bacteria responsible for UTI, for an eventual use as a therapeutic agent. A total of 40 isolates were isolated from goat’s raw milk of Mostaganem (West Algeria). In vitro tests were conducted in order to determine the efficiency of the isolates to produce antibacterial agents in interaction with uropathogens. Among 40 isolates, only 10 isolates identified as Lactobacilli and Lactococci were performant. The Screening showed that the inhibitor agent was proteinaceous substance. Therfore, it is noted that a treatment with presence of LAB is very encouraging as a result of the production of bacteriocin-like substance. On the other hand, LAB can be considered as a good alter-native to the large extent to the antibiotics in the treatment of UTI.
