Effect of Chicory Water Extract and Lactulose Syrup on Growth and Viability of Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus rhamnosuss in Skim Milk

Effect of quality control on the proliferation of the extract from Taraxacum mongolicum Hand.‐Mazz. in Lactobacillus plantarum

“…Recently, investigations on Lactobacillus plantarum have succeeded in attracting the interest of scientists owing to its beneficial effects on the host (Jones et al, ; Schwarzer et al, ) and high commercial value for dairy producers (Ciocia, McSweeney, Piraino, & Parente, ; Li et al, ). Some investigations have shown that TCM extracts can achieve a beneficial effect by promoting the growth of probiotics (El‐Sayed, Abdel‐Salam, Badran, & Ibrahim, ; Hassani, Sharifi, Mohammadi, & Hassani, ). For example, the generation time of L. plantarum , Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus rhamnosuss can be decreased in the presence of chicory extract (El‐Sayed et al, ).…”

Therefore, the study's aim was to build an HPLC fingerprint for TME, which can be used as a marker for batch quality control on the proliferative action of the extract from TME in L. plantarum .…”
