The aim of this study was to determine the impact of environmental conditions on the antimicrobial properties of 21 lactic acid bacteria strains in the selected indicator bacteria. To assess the antimicrobial activity of the whole bacteria culture (WBC), the agar well diffusion method was used. The interference of LAB strains with the growth of the selected indicator bacteria was evaluated by incubating co-cultures in the food matrix. Based on the conducted research, it was found that environmental conditions have a significant impact on the antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria strains. The highest antimicrobial activity was recorded under optimal conditions for the development of LAB, the incubation time being different depending on the indicator strain used. The tested LAB strains were characterized by a high ability to inhibit indicator strains, especially in the food matrix. These results led us to further characterize and purify the antimicrobial compound produced by lactic acid bacteria taking into account changing environmental conditions.

The use of natural preservatives called bacteriocin derived from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is one way of preventing food from being contaminated by pathogenic microorganisms such as L. monocytogenes (LM). The aims of this study were to evaluate the ability of LAB isolated from dadih to inhibit the growth of LM and to obtain the antimicrobial components that play a role in inhibiting the growth of LM. The antimicrobial activity of the supernatant obtained from 12 strains of dadih LAB was determined using the paper disk diffusion method. The results showed that the supernatant from the 12 LAB strains was able to inhibit the growth of LM with various inhibition zones. However, out of the 12 LABs, only 9 strains were found to have an inhibition zone of more than 3.5 mm.  The antimicrobial compounds of 9 strains were tested and it was found that the antimicrobial compounds of strains R-8, R-14 and R-49 were derived from lactic acid. In addition, 6 strains namely R-43, R-32, R-19, R-55, R-45 and R-41 were derived from bacteriocin based on their sensitivity to pH, heat and enzyme treatments. Crude bacteriocin derived from 6 LAB strains inhibited the growth of LM, and the highest antimicrobial activity was obtained in Streptococcus faecalis subsp. liquefaciens R-55 with an average inhibition zone of 13.87 mm. Bacteriocin produced by strain R-55 can be used as natural preservatives for the prevention of food-borne disease caused by LM.

This study examined the changes in antagonistic activity of selected lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in response to technological factors used in food production. The antimicrobial activity of 12 selected LAB strains was assessed against the bacterial and fungal strains using the agar well diffusion method. Sodium chloride (NaCl) 6.5–8.0%, glucose 20-30% and pH 4.0, pH 8.0 and higher were the most crucial factors in reducing the spectra of the microorganisms antagonized. Heating at 80 °C or 100 °C had a greater negative impact than 63 °C on the antifungal activity of LAB. Freezing at –72 °C eliminated the antifungal activity, or it changed from fungicidal to fungistatic. Although each LAB demonstrated the ability to retain antimicrobial activity induced by various technological factors, Lactococcus lactis 768/5 was superior in retaining high antimicrobial activity against tested indicator strains.

Abstract Food preservation by chemical preservatives addition is not recommended in large quantities. However, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) metabolites can be used as a safe alternative. LAB can produce a type of antimicrobial peptide known as bacteriocin. One source of LAB that can be used as a bacteriocin-producing candidate is dadih, a traditional fermented buffalo milk product from West Sumatra, Indonesia. In this study, eight bacterial isolates isolated from dadih were identified using the catalase test and Gram straining and obtained 6 isolates that were taken as LAB. An antimicrobial activity test was carried out using the diffusion method on LAB liquid isolates suspension and crude bacteriocins from the six isolates. The isolates with the highest antimicrobial activity were DK8, the diameter of inhibiting zone of liquid isolates was 15.75 mm (Salmonella sp.), 14.25 mm (Escherichia coli), and 12.25 mm (Staphylococcus aureus). Meanwhile, the diameter of crude bacteriocin inhibition of DK 8 isolates was 8 mm (Salmonella sp.). 8 mm (E. coli), and 8.5 mm (S. aureus). Furthermore, 16S rRNA sequencing confirmed DK8 as Lactobacillus pentosus.

Bacteriocin producing bacteria are commonly found in meat products to enhance theirshelf-life. In the present study, bacterial species were isolated from meat samples (beef) from differentlocalities of Lahore, Pakistan. MRS agar medium was used to isolate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) throughspread and streak methods (incubated for 72 h at 37 °C). Identification of bacteriocinogenic LAB strainswas done by using staining techniques, morphology based characteristics and biochemical tests. Thesestrains were BSH 1b, BSH 3a, BIP 4a, BIP 3a, BIP 1b and BRR 3a. Antibacterial activity of LAB wasperformed against food borne pathogens viz., Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus through paperdisc diffusion method. Three bacterial strains showed maximum inhibition and characterised by ribotypingviz., BIP 4a was identified as Lactobacillus curvatus, BIP 3a was Staphylococcus warneri and BIP 1b wasLactobacillus graminis. Optimum pH 5-6.5 and 30-37 °C temperature for isolated bacterial strains wasrecorded. Protein concentration measured was 0.07 mg/mL for BSH 1b, 0.065 mg/mL for BSH 3a,0.057 mg/mL for BIP 4a, 0.062 mg/mL for BIP 1b, 0.065 mg/mL for BIP 3a and for BRR 3a 0.078 mg/mL,respectively. Bacteriocin of all isolates except BIP 3a was found to be sensitive towards pepsin and resistanttowards Rnase. Bacteriocin production was stable at between pH 5.0 and 6.0 and resistant temperaturewas 40 °C. It was concluded that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from meat can be helpful as antibacterialagents against food-borne bacterial pathogens because of thermostable producing bacteriocin.

AbstractThere have been incerases in antibiotic resistant strains of human pathogens and causing treatment of microbial infections difficult. These days more attention is given to seraching new antimicrobial drugs to combat pathogenic microbes. Traditional fermented cottage of Metata Ayib which is naturally enriched with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and used to preserve cheese for long time in Northern Ethiopia, may have antimicrobial activity against various human pathogens. However, there was no scientific report on the antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria isolated from Metata Ayib. The objective of this study is to evaluate antibacterial activity of lactic acid bacteria from Metata Ayib against clinical and standard human pathogens. The study was laboratory based experiment. Antibiotic production by the LAB was performed by inoculating the LAB isolates into 6.0 ml MRS medium and incubating at 30 °C. Cell free supernatants (CFS) were collected by centrifugation (10,000 rpm for 15 min at 4 °C) of the six day fermented broth cultures. The pH of the CFS was adjusted to 6.5 with 4 N NaOH to eliminate the effect of organic acids.The susceptibility of produced antibiotic against test organisms was done by growing on Muller Hinton agar in triplicate using well diffusion method and the inhibition zone was recorded. Preceddingly, MIC and MBC was determined using standard methods. The antibiotic substance exhibited antimicrobial activity towards standard and drug resistant bacteral strains with the inhibition zone ranges upto 25.33±3.21 mm. The result of MIC against tested ornaisnms showed a considerable antimicrobial activity of the antibiotic substance withn the range values 6.25% to12.5%. In addition, the result of this study showed that LAB obtained from Metata Ayib exhibits antimicrobial activity against standard and pathogenic pathogenic test bacterial species ranged from 12.5-25% of MBC value. This might be due to the production of organic acids, but also other compounds, such as ethanol, hydrogen peroxide, diacetyl, reuterin and bacteriocins. The results of this investigation can also provide baseline for information for future studies about the application of antibacterial substances produced by LAB from fermented Metata ayib.
