Characterization and evaluation of anti-Salmonella enteritidis activity of indigenous probiotic lactobacilli in mice
Lactobacilli (n = 24), isolated from human infants and yogurt, showed variable in vitro activity against Salmonella enteritidis (8.0 ± 1.0 to 16.6 ± 0.5 mm) and other gut pathogens (9.0 ± 1.0 to 15.3 ± 0.5 mm), as determined by a well diffusion assay. The isolates were identified as Limosilactobacil...

description | Lactobacilli (n = 24), isolated from human infants and yogurt, showed variable in vitro activity against Salmonella enteritidis (8.0 ± 1.0 to 16.6 ± 0.5 mm) and other gut pathogens (9.0 ± 1.0 to 15.3 ± 0.5 mm), as determined by a well diffusion assay. The isolates were identified as Limosilactobacillus fermentum (FY1, FY3, FY4, IL2, and IL5), Lactobacillus delbrueckii (FY6 and FY7), Lactobacillus sp. (IL7), and Lactobacillus gasseri (IL12). All isolates showed variable in vitro tolerance to acidic pH for 3 h and visible growth at pH 4 and in the presence of 0.3% ox-bile. The antibiotic susceptibility profile of Lactobacillus isolates indicated resistance against vancomycin, ciprofloxacin, streptomycin, and lincomycin. Isolates had variable auto-aggregation and showed variable capabilities to co-aggregate with S. enteritidis. Based on all tested parameters, L. fermentum IL2, L. fermentum IL5, and L. gasseri IL12 were selected for co-culture experiments, followed by in vivo evaluation in Balb/c mice. All the selected isolates resulted in a 100% reduction in S. enteritidis in broth. Lactobacillus isolates efficiently colonized mouse guts and inhibited S. enteritidis colonization. Overall, there was ≥99.06% and ≤4.32 Mean log10 reduction in Salmonella counts in mice feces within 7 days. The study, thus, provided characterized lactobacilli that could be considered as potential ingredients for probiotic formulations intended to prevent S. enteritidis infection in humans. |
