In this study, two main probiotics (Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp < em>. bulgaricus) were isolated from the intestine of Tor grypus and their effects on growth performance, gut microbial flora and digestive enzymes activities (i.e., α-amylase, lipase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and alkaline phosphatase) of Tor grypus (Karaman, 1971) were determined. Juveniles of T. gry...

considering the emergence of antibiotic resistance, scientists are interested in using new antimicrobial agents in the treatment of infectious diseases including infections of the enteric systems. lactic acid bacteria have the great potential to produce antimicrobial compounds that inhibit and control pathogenic bacteria. the aim of this study was to determine the anti-bacterial and anti-adhere...

Camel milk (CM) is gaining scientific attention due to its potential health and therapeutic benefits. Fermented drinkable yogurts (labans) were prepared from CM bovine (BM) using mixed Streptococcus thermophilus Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus bacteria supplemented with 1 of 2 hydrocolloids: pectin (0.1–0.3%) or sodium alginate (0.1–0.5%). The different labans compared by studying the...

Unheated and heat-treated homogenates were separately prepared from candidate probiotic bacteria, including Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, and Streptococcus thermophilus. We compared the phytohemagglutinin-induced proliferation of mononuclear cells in the presence of homogenates and in the presence of a...

Streptococcus thermophilus ATCC 19258, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus T-11, and Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis IL1403 were transformed with the alpha-amylase gene (amyA) from Streptococcus bovis 148 by using a wide host-range vector, and all the transformants secreted the alpha-amylase successfully. Since the promoter and the secretion signal of the amyA gene were functional in t...
