The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of 10 different lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from local food sources of animal origin against 4 Enterobacter cloacae isolates obtained from clinical cases and determine their adhesion potentials to intestinal epithelial cells. In this study, all Enterobacter cloacae isolates (P3, P4, P5, P7) identified with the BD Phoenix automation system were detected to form biofilm with both Congo red agar and Microtiter plate methods. Amoxicillinclavulanate, cefuroxime, and ampicillin resistance was determined in all isolates. It was determined that LAB strains producing exopolysaccharide (EPS) were able to colonize intestinal epithelial cells. It is noteworthy that LAB extracts were effective to inhibit the biofilm formation of P3Ec, which had higher antibiotic resistance than those of other isolates. Antimicrobial effect of LAB extracts on Enterobacter cloacae were also detected by both agar disc diffusion and well diffusion tests. In this study, all of the isolated LAB strains (especially L. lactis, L. fermentum, and L. casei) are good candidates for controlling Enterobacter cloacae biofilm formation. These findings indicate that L. lactis, L. fermentum, and L. casei can potentially be developed as novel antibiofilm agents.
Bu çalışmanın amacı; Citrobacter izolatlarına karşı laktik asit bakterilerinin antimikrobiyal ve antibiyofilm aktivitelerini belirlemektir. Bu çalışmada kullanılan Citrobacter izolatları (C1, C2, C3) BD PhoenixTM otomasyon sistemi ile Citrobacter braakii olarak tanımlanmıştır. Biyofilm oluşumu Kongo kırmızılı agar ve mikrotitrasyon plak metodu kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Antibiyogram test sonuçlarına göre, tüm izolatlar amfisilin ve amoksilin-klavulanata karşı dirençli bulunmuştur. Antimikrobiyal aktivite test sonuçları laktik asit bakterilerinden elde edilen ekstraktların (Lactococcus lactis (L1), Lactobacillus fermentum (L2), Enterococcus faecalis (L3), Lactobacillus casei (L4), Lactobacillus plantarum (L5), Enterococcus faecium (L6), Lactobacillus curvatus (L7), Enterococcus durans (L8) Lactococcus garviae (L9), Enterococcus faecalis (L10)) Citrobacter braakii üzerinde antimikrobiyal ve antibiyofilm etkinliğinin olduğu saptanmıştır. En yüksek antimikrobiyal etki C2 izolatı üzerinde ve en düşük etki C3 izolatı üzerinde belirlenmiştir. Antibiyofilm test sonuçlarına göre L1, L2, L4, L6, L7, L8 ekstraktlarının en yüksek dozlarının tüm Citrobacter izolatlarında biyofilm oluşumunu engellendiği görülmüştür.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
