“…A lyophilized stock culture of pathogenic S. aureus strain (ATCC 6538) was obtained as a reference pathogenic strain from the Microbiology Department in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Zagazig University, Egypt. The culture was grown in broth (brain heart infusion; Oxoid) at 37 °C for 18–24 h. L. garvieae strain was obtained from our previous work (we chose the strain that carry only Fbp gene) [27] in which it was isolated, identified, and stored frozen at −80 °C in broth culture contained 15% (w/v) glycerol. Then it was cultured on M17 medium anaerobically at 37 °C for 48 h.…”

“…Abdelfatah and Tahoun (2015) studied LAB in Kariesh cheese, and a variety of LAB have been isolated. In particular, Lactobacillus rhamnosus was the most prominent strain in kariesh cheese, and the high antibiotic-resistant Lactococcus garvieae pathogenic strain was isolated [ 79 ]. The probiotic potential of Pediococcus acidilactici isolated from wara has been recently investigated and reported [ 80 ].…”

Immune System and Epidemics: The Role of African Indigenous Bioactive Substances

et al. 2023

With over 6 million coronavirus pandemic deaths, the African continent reported the lowest death rate despite having a high disease burden. The African community’s resilience to the pandemic has been attributed to climate and weather conditions, herd immunity, repeated exposure to infectious organisms that help stimulate the immune system, and a disproportionately large youth population. In addition, functional foods, herbal remedies, and dietary supplements contain micronutrients and bioactive compounds that can help boost the immune system. This review identified significant traditional fermented foods and herbal remedies available within the African continent with the potential to boost the immune system in epidemics and pandemics. Methodology: Databases, such as PubMed, the Web of Science, and Scopus, were searched using relevant search terms to identify traditional African fermented foods and medicinal plants with immune-boosting or antiviral capabilities. Cereal-based fermented foods, meat-, and fish-based fermented foods, and dairy-based fermented foods containing antioxidants, immunomodulatory effects, probiotics, vitamins, and peptides were identified and discussed. In addition, nine herbal remedies and spices belonging to eight plant families have antioxidant, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, and antiviral properties. Peptides, flavonoids, alkaloids, sterols, ascorbic acid, minerals, vitamins, and saponins are some of the bioactive compounds in the remedies. Bioactive compounds in food and plants significantly support the immune system and help increase resistance against infectious diseases. The variety of food and medicinal plants found on the African continent could play an essential role in providing community resilience against infectious diseases during epidemics and pandemics. The African continent should investigate nutritional, herbal, and environmental factors that support healthy living and longevity.
