AIM We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a synbiotic containing Bacillus Coagulans in treatment of IBS. BACKGROUND Some studies have shown the efficacy of probiotics in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). PATIENTS AND METHODS Adult IBS patients (n=85) were randomized to receive a synbiotic containing Bacillus Coagulans or placebo for 12 weeks. Frequency of IBS symptoms includin...

Effects of high temperature pretreatment and inoculation Bacillus coagulans were determined relative to the physicochemical properties bacterial community aerobic composting chicken manure. Chicken manure was pretreated with for 0 h (CJ), 0.5 (T-0.5h), 1.0 (T-1.0h), 1.5 (T-1.5h), 2.0 (T-2.0h) then inoculated B. coagulans. without included as control (CK). The results showed that in CJ, T-0.5h, ...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Model-based characterization of growth performance and l-lactic acid production with high optical purity by thermophilic Bacillus coagulans in a lignin-supplemented mixed substrate medium (R. Glaser and J. Venus, 2016) [1]". This data survey provides the information on characterization of three Bacillus coagulans s...

The aim of this study was to extend the options for screening and characterization of microorganism through kinetic growth parameters. In order to obtain data, automated turbidimetric measurements were accomplished to observe the response of strains of Bacillus coagulans. For the characterization, it was decided to examine the influence of varying concentrations of lignin with respect to bacter...

In a previous paper, El-Bisi and Ordal (1956a) reported that increased levels of phosphate, in the growth and sporulation medium, significantly reduced the thermal resistance of spores of Bacillus coagulans var. thermoacidurans. It was postulated that the phosphate anion lessened the availability of divalent cations to the sporulating cells and that spores so produced possessed a reduced therma...

Expression divergence is thought to be a hallmark of functional diversification between homologs post duplication. Modification in regulatory elements has been invoked to explain expression divergence after duplication for several MADS-box genes, however, verification of reciprocal loss of cis-regulatory elements is lacking in plants. Here, we report that the evolution of MPF2-like genes has en...

Background and Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to investigate effects of various heat shock conditions and fast freezing and subsequent thawing on the viability and recovery of Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus subtilis as probiotic sporeformers, and also to compare spore plate and microscopic counts. Materials and Methods: After preparing the final suspensions of B. coagulans...
