“…There are different types of indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) present in nature, and aquatic animals hold a plethora of potential LAB with probiotic properties (Balcazar et al, 2008). Currently, LAB are used as probiotics adhering number of beneficial properties such as antibacterial activity (Rather et al, 2013), antifungal activity (Rather et al, 2014), immune modulation (Kamiya et al, 2017, Kim et al, 2012, Kober and Bowe, 2015, Tsai et al, 2010), anti-obesity (Tsai et al, 2014), and anti-diabetic properties (Bajpai et al, 2016) and so on. Due to the production of metabolic characteristics, LAB are considered as novel bacteria for their applications in food and pharmaceutical industry.…”
