Candidacies in female reproductive tract are mainly caused by Candida albicans. This infection often causes serious problems, particularly on their reproductive tract (genital part). Until recently, control of this infection has relied on the use of antibiotics. However due to numerous bad side effects of antibiotics, lactic acid bacteria have been proposed as an alternative method to control the growth of Candida albicans. Therefore, this research was aimed to isolate, screen, and characterize lactic acid bacterial isolates (LAB) antagonistic against Candida albicans (the causative agent of candidacies infection in reproductive tract of human). LABs were isolated from various fermented foods, such as tape ketan and kimchi. Isolation of LABs was conducted by applying dilution and spread plate method on MRS agar medium supplemented with BCP indicator to distinguish LABs from non acid-producing bacteria. Colonies with indication to produce acid were screened for antagonistic activity against C. albicans on MRS agar and followed by characterization of those isolates (Gram stain, catalase production test, oxydase production, gas production test, resistance test to low pH conditions and to high level of NaDC (sodium deoxicolic), and test for ability to convert colic acid (CA) into deoxicolic acid (DCA)). The results showed that 46 LAB isolates were successfully isolated from samples of tape ketan and kimchi. Among those, 7 isolates showed antagonistic activity against C. albicans in in vitro tests. All these 7 candidates were also found to be resistance to low pH conditions (up to pH 2) and to high level of NaDC (up to 0.6 mM). Four most potential isolates were further testes for ability to convert colic acid into deoxycolic acid and none showed positive result, indicating that they all showed initial potential and safe for future human probiotic development (especially to be used to treat patients infected by C. albicans).

Probiotik merupakan mikroorganisme hidup yang jika dikonsumsi dalam jumlah yang tepat dapat memberikan manfaat bagi tubuh. Sebagian besar bakteri asam laktat merupakan bakteri probiotik. Untuk dapat memberikan manfaat yang maksimal bagi tubuh, salah satu kriteria yang harus dipenuhi yaitu mampu bertahan hidup pada kondisi pH yang rendah. Hal ini dikarenakan bakteri probiotik akan menghadapi kondisi pH rendah yang terdapat di lambung. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji kemampuan isolat BAL hasil fermentasi kubis merah untuk bertahan hidup pada pH 3. Bakteri asam laktat ditumbuhkan pada media MRS agar yang ditambahkan 1% CaCO3 dengan menggunakan metode sebar (spread) dan dimurnikan menggunakan metode gores (streak). Uji ketahanan asam dilakukan dengan cara isolat diinkubasi pada kondisi pH 3 dalam media NB kemudian ditumbuhkan kembali pada media NA dengan menggunakan metode spread. Uji dilakukan juga untuk mengamati aktivitas enzim katalase. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa isolat yang diperoleh dari hasil fermentasi kubis merah mampu bertahan pada pH 3.Probiotics is a livinng microorganism that if consumed in the right amount can provide  benefits to the body. Most lactic acid bacteria are probiotic bacteria. To be able to provide maximum benefits for the body, one of the criteria that must be met is able to survive at low pH. This is because probiotic bacteria will face low pH conditions found in the stomach. This study aims to test the effectiveness of BAL isolates from red cabbage fermentation to survie at pH 3.  Lactic acid bacteria grown on MRSA media added 1% CaCO3 by using spread method and purified by using streak method. The acid resistance test was performed by isolate incubated at pH 3 condition in NB medium by using spread method. Test were also conducted to observe the activity of catalase enzymes. The result showed that isolates obtained from red cabbage fermentation were able to survive at pH 3.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are one of group probiotic bacteria, which have a positive impact on human and animal health. The aim of this research was to determine the potency lactic acid bacterial isolate from LABi cattle gastric as a probiotic that have resistance to low pH and sodium deoxycholate. The study was started with the cultivation test that aims to made sure uncontaminated isolates of microorganisms, including test for growth response in MRS broth medium, test on catalase production, and Gram stain. Its potency for probiotic development was tested by growing of isolate in MRS broth medium with low pH conditions (pH 2, 3, 4) and in MRS medium supplemented with various concentration of sodium deoxycholate (0,2 mM, 0,4 mM, 0,6 mM). The result showed that isolate from LABi cattle gastric was able to grow well in MRS broth medium under anaerobic condition. In addition, it also showed catalase negative and Gram-positive bacteria. In the main experiment, this isolate was found to be resistant to low pH conditions (up to pH 2) and high concentration of sodium deoxycholate (up to 0,6 mM). These results indicate that the isolate the lactic acid bacteria have resistance to low pH and the sodium deoxycholate, which is the main requirement of the probiotic bacteria

The present study assesses the feasibility of noni and mulberry as a raw substrate for the production of probiotic noni and mulberry juice by lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus plantarum SK-3 and Pediococcus acidilactici M-3). Changes in pH, titratable acidity (lactic acid), cell survival, and antioxidant properties were examined during fermentation. Both the strains grew well in noni juice and mulberry juice after 48 hour fermentation. P. acidilactici M-3 produced less lactic acid than L. plantarum SK-3. After 28 days of cold storage, both tested strains survived the low-pH conditions in fermented noni juice and mulberry juice. Both the juices fermented with L. plantarum SK-3 had a high antioxidant capacity. The noni and mulberry juice fermented with L. plantarum SK-3 had shown the cholesterol-lowering ability better than the juices fermented with P. acidilactici M-3. Finally, L. plantarum SK-3 and P. acidilactici M-3 were found as optimal probiotics for fermentation with noni juice as well as mulberry juice. In this investigation, the results could be an indicator of the development of health-promoting food juices.

Tabah bamboo shoot pickle is one of the fermented food which is the source of lactic acid bacteria.  Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is beneficial to health because it has the ability as a probiotic. Lactic acid bacteria that have probiotic criteria should have resistance to low pH and bile salts. This study aims to determine isolates of lactic acid bacteria isolated from tabah bamboo shoot pickle resistant to low pH and bile salts (NaDC). Lactic acid bacteria were tested to low pH by using MRS broth that have different pH (pH 2, pH 3, pH 4 and pH 6.2 as a control) incubated at 37ºC for 3 hours. isolates were survive in low pH then continued in bile salt resistance test with 0.3% bile salt concentration for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes and 24 hours. The results showed that three isolates out of 88 isolates had ability to grow in low pH and in medium supplemented by NaDC 0,3%. The isolates are AR 3057, AR 3101 and AR 6152 which can be used as candidat of  probiotic. Keywords : Tabah bamboo shoot pickle, lactic acid bacteria, probiotic, low pH, bile salt
