Assessment of biosecurity traits and in situ antibacterial activities of Weissella cibaria strains isolated from Campos das Vertentes, Minas Gerais, Brazil focused for a potential probiotic and food application
Abstract:The antagonistic Weissella cibaria strains W21, W25 and W42 are characterized in this study for additional beneficial properties. These strains display therefore high scores of adhesion to intestinal cell-lines and capacities to exclude in situ pathogens such as methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA S1) and Escherichia coli 184, which is resistant to colistin. Further, W. cibaria W21, W25 and W42 were hemolysis-negative, non-cytotoxic towards a mix of eukaryotic Caco2 and HT-29 cell-lines, do not i… Show more
