Lactic acid bacteria species were molecularly identified in milk from Lacaune, Santa Inês and crossbred sheep breeds and their in vitro probiotic potential was evaluated. The species identified were Enterococcus faecium (56.25%), E. durans (31.25%) and E. casseliflavus (12.5%). No other lactic acid bacteria species, such as lactobacilli, was identified. Most of the isolated enterococci were resistant to gastric pH (2.0) and to 0.3% oxgall. All tested enterococci were resistant to ceftazidime, oxacillin and streptomycin and sensible to clindamycin, erythromycin and penicillin. The resistance to ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, tetracycline and vancomycin varied among tested species. All tested enterococci strongly inhibited (P<0.05) Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes, moderately inhibited E. faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus and did not inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica var. Typhimurium and also one E. durans sample isolated from sheep milk. Four samples of E. faecium, one of E. durans and one of E. casseliflavus presented the best probiotic potential.

Isolation of lactic acid bacteria from fermented fish products, peda, jambal roti and bekasam were carried out. Antibacterial activity of lactic acid bacteria was tested using well diffusion method against Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Twelve isolates of lactic acid bacteria had been isolated. Results showed that isolate A2 from peda was able to inhibit the growth of the 4 testing bacteria with inhibition zones of 6.7 mm for E. coli; 7.3 mm for P. aeruginosa; 8.3 mm for S. aureus and 10.0 mm for B. cereus. Isolate B5 from jambal roti had inhibition zones 11.6 mm for E. coli; 6.0 mm for P. aeruginosa ; 7.3 mm for S. aureus and 13.3 mm for B. cereus ; while isolate C6 from bekasam had inhibitor zones 7.7 mm for E. coli; 6.0 for P. aeruginosa; 8.0 mm for S. aureus and 9.3 mm for B. cereus.

Growth Ability of Jatropha Curcas L. Explants on the In Vitro Media Containing IBA and BAProbiotic product is one of the applications of biotechnology that utilize lactic acid bacteria, especially lactobacilli. Some important requirements for microbes that can be used as probiotic include resistance to low pH, ability to grow on bile salts and colonize, and having antimicrobial activity. Each species of the genus Lactobacillus has different characteristics. These characteristics are strongly influenced by the environment in which the bacteria live. This study was carried out in order to characterize Lactobacillus casei which was isolated from dadih. The result of the experiment showed that the isolated L. casei was able to grow on the bile salt at the concentration of 15%, resistant to acid media until pH 2, had antimicrobial activity (significantly inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis). The local L. casei isolate has a potential application for use as probiotic microbe.Keywords: Lactobacillus casei, probiotic, lactic acid bacteria, characterization,dadih ABSTRAKProduk probiotik merupakan salah satu aplikasi bioteknologi yang memanfaatkan bakteri asam laktat terutama jenis Lactobacillus. Beberapa syarat utama mikroba yang dapat difungsikan sebagai mikroba probiotik antara lain tahan terhadap pH rendah, mampu tumbuh pada garam empedu, mampu berkoloni, memiliki aktivitas antimikroba. Masing-masing spesies dari Genus Lactobacillus memiliki karakteristik yang berbeda-beda. Karakteristik ini sangat dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan dimana bakteri tersebut hidup. Pada penelitian ini telah dilakukan karakterisasi Lactobacillus casei yang merupakan hasil isolasi dari susu kerbau fermentasi. Dari hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa L.casei hasil isolasi mampu hidup sampai dengan konsentrasi garam empedu 15%, tahan terhadap media asam sampai dengan pH 2, memiliki aktivitas antimikroba (positif menghambat Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, dan Enterococcus faecalis). L. casei yang merupakan isolat lokal memiliki karakteristik yang berpotensi untuk digunakan sebagai mikroba probiotik.Kata kunci: Lactobacillus casei, probiotik, bakteri asam laktat, karakterisasi, dadih

Aim. Study of the effect of exopolysaccharides (EPS) of lactic acid cocci on cytokine activity of macrophages of mice with phagocytosis in vitro Staphylococcus aureus 209-P. Materials and methods. The EPS of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactococcus lactis B-1662 was used in the work. At 13, 5 and 7, AMP and PMP were isolated and the phagocytosis process was modeled in vitro. After 30 minutes, 1, 6 and 24 hours, the content of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1a and TNF-a was determined. Results. EPSs had an ambiguous effect on the production of cytokines. The greatest effect on the synthesis was provided by EPS of S. thermophilus. Conclusion. The results of the study allow us to talk about the possibility of using EPS of S. thermophilus as a preventive immunomodulator for correction of the cytokine status of animals.

Diarrhea is defecation with a frequency more often than usual (three times or more) a day (10 mL/kg/day) with a soft or liquid consistency, even in the form of water alone. Pathogenic bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Shigella sp., play a role in many cases, to which antibiotics are prescribed as the first-line therapy. However, since antibiotic resistance cases are often found, preventive therapies are needed, such as consuming yogurt, which is produced through a fermentation process by lactic acid bacteria (LAB). This research aimed to determine the activity of lactic acid bacteria (Liactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus) in yogurt in inhibiting the growth of the pathogenic bacteria E. coli, S. typhimurium, and Shigella sp. The research applied in vitro with the liquid dilution test method and the true experimental design research method with post-test-only and control group design. The design was used to see the inhibitory effect of yogurt LAB on the growth of E. coli, S. typhimurium, and Shigell sp. to compare the effect of several different yogurt concentrations, namely 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80%. The results of the Least Significance Different analysis showed that there was a significant difference between yogurt with a concentration of 0% and that with various concentrations in inhibiting the growth of E. coli, S. typhimurium, and Shigella sp. with a p-value of &lt;0.05. Whereas, there was no significant difference in the various concentrations of yogurt in inhibiting the growth of the three kinds of bacteria with a p-value of &gt; 0.05.<p class="Default" align="center"> </p>

Clostridium botulinum and Staphylococcus aureus are naturally occurring contaminants in semi-preserved meat products. They can be inhibited by (a) storage below 3 C, (b) 10% sodium chloride (brine concentration), (c) pH values below 4.5, or (d) proper combinations of these factors. However, most meat products do not have the pH values and brine concentrations required to completely inhibit C. botulinum and S. aureus and there is always a risk of temperature abuse. Improved safety can be achieved by adding 1% or more glucose to the product. The glucose will, in the event of temperature abuse, generally be fermented to lactic acid by the indigenous microflora in the product. As a result, the pH value drops to a level at which the brine concentration is sufficient to inhibit C. botulinum and S. aureus. A better approach to safety is to add, together with glucose, a radiation-killed preparation of lactic acid bacteria, e.g., Pediococcus cerevisiae. Such preparations cause a rapid decline in pH only when the product is exposed to a high temperature, and they are stable during storage of meat products. Addition of irradiated lactic acid bacteria to meat products has not yet been officially approved. Another way to improve the safety of semi-preserved meat is to add sufficient glucono-delta-lactone to reduce the initial pH of the product to a level at which the salt concentration is inhibitory. Use of larger amounts of glucono-delta-lactone may result in flavor and color problems even when the meat product is kept at refrigeration temperatures.

Aspirin profoundly inhibited the in vitro augmentation of human and mouse granulocyte adherence to nylon fiber induced by the bacterial products Escherichia coli endotoxin and Staphylococcus aureus culture filtrate. Granulocytes obtained from normal volunteers during the 48 hr following ingestion of aspirin did not respond normally to endotoxin stimulation. Furthermore, pretreatment of mice with sodium salicylate prior to intraperitoneal infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae impaired granulocyte exudation and resulted in uncontrolled bacteremia and greater lethality of infection.
