Lactic acid bacteria H6 was isolated from dried yak jerky by plate dilution method, and using theListeria monocytogenesas indicator, the Oxford cup method was used to test the bacteriostasis effect. Lactic acid bacteria H6 were identified asPediococcus pentosaceusby 16S rRNA sequence. The growth curve ofPediococcus pentosaceusH6 was determined by Turbidimetry, and the antibacterial activity of bacteriocin H6 was measured by two fold dilution method and the Oxford cup method. Studying on the thermal stability and pH stability, our results indicated that the barteriocin H6 has better antibacterial effect in acidic conditions or at 100 °C for 90min. The antibacterial spectrum of bacteriocin H6 proved its good inhibitory effect on proliferation ofListeria monocytogenesand other Gram-positive bacteria, and had a certain inhibitory effect onEscherichia coliand other Gram-negative bacteria, showing a broad-spectrum antibacterial property, which demonstrate its great potential in food preservation

The research for antibacterial activities of lactic acid bacteria isolated from Moroccan table olives, revealed 15 bacterial strains having an inhibitory activity against pathogenic germs: Listeria monocytogenes, Listeria innocua and Staphylococcus aureus; as well as Gram-negative germs, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis and others. From 127 samples of table olives, 143 bacterial strains with antibacterial effect were isolated by the double layer method, 15 strains were retained. All are Gram positive, catalase negative and non-sporulating. Cocci constitute 66.33% of the total effective. The remaining 33.33% are represented by bacilli/Ovoid. The lactic acid bacteria retained have a greater inhibitory effect against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Listeria monocytogenes CECT 4032 and Staphylococcus aureus MBLA were inhibited by all the lactic strains studied. The smallest inhibition zones were recorded for the two isolates LB15 and LB96 against E. coli 87739, with diameter less than 10 mm.

Lactic acid bacteria have functions in immunoregulation, antagonism, and pathogen inhibition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in countering oral pathogens and develop related products. After a series of assays to 450 LAB strains, 8 heat-inactivated strains showed a strong inhibitory effect on a caries pathogen, Streptococcus mutans, and 308 heat-inactivated LAB strains showed a strong inhibitory effect on a periodontal pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis. The key reasons for inhibiting oral pathogens were bacteriocins produced by LAB and the coaggregation effect of the inactivated cells. We selected Lacticaseibacillus (Lb) paracasei 111 and Lb.paracasei 141, which had the strongest inhibitory effects on the above pathogens, was the main oral health food source. The optimal cultural conditions of Lb. paracasei 111 and Lb. paracasei 141 were studied. An oral tablet with a shelf life of 446 days made of the above strains was developed. A 40 volunteers’ clinical study (CSMUH IRB number: CS05065) was conducted with this tablet in the Periodontological Department of the Stomatology Research Center, Affiliated Hospital of Chung Shan Medical University (Taiwan). After 8 weeks of testing, 95% and 78.9% of patients showed an effect on reducing periodontal pathogens and improving probing pocket depth, respectively, in the oral tablet group.

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) addition on Listeria monocytogenes translocation and its toxin listeriolysin O (LLO), proinflammatory factors, immune organ indexes and serum immunoglobulins in farmed rabbits. Five treatments included negative control (NC), positive control (PC) with L. monocytogenes infection and supplemental LAB at 3.0 × 10<sup>6 </sup>(low-LAB, L-LAB), 3.0 × 10<sup>8</sup> (medium-LAB, M-LAB) and 3.0 × 10<sup>10 </sup>(high-LAB, H-LAB) CFU/kg of diet, respectively. The LAB was a mixture of equal amounts of Lactobacillus acidophilus (ACCC11073), Lactobacillus plantarum (CICC21863) and Enterococcus faecium (CICC20430). A total of 180 weaned rabbits (negative for L. monocytogenes) were randomly assigned to 5 groups with 6 replicates of 6 rabbits each in response to the 5 treatments. L. monocytogenes infection occurred on the first day of feeding trial and dietary LAB supplementation lasted for 14 days. The results showed that on days 7 and 14 post administration, L. monocytogenes in caecum, liver, spleen and lymph nodes was reduced in M-LAB and H-LAB compared to PC (P &lt; 0.05), and linear and quadratic reducing trends were found in liver on day 7 (P ≤ 0.002). On day 14, mucosa LLO mRNA expression and serum TNFα, IL1β and IFNγ were reduced in the three LAB treatments (P &lt; 0.05), and linear and quadratic trends were found on TNFα and IL1β (P ≤ 0.025); indexes of thymus and spleen, serum IgA and IgG were increased in the LAB treatments (P &lt; 0.05). It is concluded that LAB can be used to alleviate L. monocytogenes infection and to improve the immune function of farmed animals.

The capacity of three phosphates to interrupt the lytic cycle of four specific autochthonal bacteriophages of lactic acid bacteria used as starters was assayed. The phosphates used (polyphosphates A and B and sodium tripolyphosphate–high solubility [TAS]) were selected on the basis of their capacity to sequester divalent cations, which are involved in the lytic cycle of certain bacteriophages. The assays were performed in culture media (deMan Rogosa Sharpe and Elliker broths) and reconstituted (10%, wt/vol) commercial skim milk to which phosphates had been added at concentrations of 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5% (wt/vol). Phosphate TAS was the most inhibitory one, since it was able to inhibit the lytic cycle of all bacteriophages studied, in both broths and milk. In broth, polyphosphates A and B inhibited the lytic cycle of only two bacteriophages at the maximal concentration used (0.5%), whereas in milk, they were not capable of maintaining the same inhibitory effect.

ABSTRACT: Sausages are highly susceptible to microbial spoilage. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is the main group of spoilage bacteria in vacuum packed cooked sausages. To control microbial growth natural antimicrobials have been used as food preservatives. The aim of this study was to identify strains of lactic acid bacteria isolated from spoiled commercial Calabresa sausages and use them in an in vitro challenge with the natural antimicrobials, nisin (NI) and ε-poly-L-lysine (ε-PL). Mass spectrometry identification of LAB isolated from sausages using MALDI-TOF revealed a predominance of L. plantarum in the LAB population. RAPD-PCR of L. plantarum strains showed four different genetic profiles. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of NI and ε-PL, alone and in combination, against a pool of different profiles L. plantarum were determined. MIC of NI and ε-PL were 0.468 mg/ L and 75 mg/ L; respectively, whereas MBC of NI and ε-PL were 12.48 mg/L and 150 mg/L, respectively. The combined effect of NI and ε-PL was determined using concentrations at 1/4 and 1/8 of individual MICs. Synergistic effect was confirmed at both concentrations showing a fractional inhibitory concentration index of 0.5 and 0.2, respectively. The combination of NI and ε-PL at a small concentration of 0.05 mg/L and 9.375 mg/L, respectively, showed inhibitory effect towards spoilage L. plantarum Results show the potential of the combined use of NI and ε-PL to control sausage spoilage-associated with lactobacilli.

Fifteen fingerprints (assigned to Leuconostoc spp., Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Weissella viridescens, Leuconostoc citreum, and Lactobacillus sakei) of 89 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from minced beef stored under modified atmospheres at various temperatures were screened for their ability to exhibit autoinducer-2 (AI-2)–like activity under certain growth conditions. Cell-free meat extracts (CFME) were collected at the same time as the LAB isolates and tested for the presence of AI-2–like molecules. All bioassays were conducted using the Vibrio harveyi BAA-1117 (sensor 1−, sensor 2+) biosensor strain. The possible inhibitory effect of meat extracts on the activity of the biosensor strain was also evaluated. AI-2–like activity was observed for Leuconostoc spp. isolates, but none of the L. sakei strains produced detectable AI-2–like activity. The AI-2–like activity was evident mainly associated with the Leuconostoc sp. B 233 strain, which was the dominant isolate recovered from storage at 10 and 15°C and at the initial and middle stages of storage at chill temperatures (0 and 5°C). The tested CFME samples displayed low AI-2–like activity and inhibited AI-2 activity regardless of the indigenous bacterial populations. The LAB isolated during meat spoilage exhibited AI-2–like activity, whereas the LAB strains retrieved depended on storage time and temperature. The production of AI-2–like molecules may affect the dominance of different bacterial strains during storage. The results provide a basis for further research concerning the effect of storage temperature on the expression of genes encoding AI-2 activity and on the diversity of the ephemeral bacterial population.
