Lactic Acid Bacteria—From Nature Through Food to Health

Role of bioactive lipids in obesity

“…On the other hand, conjugated fatty acids (CFAs) represent PUFAs with conjugated double bonds, usually found in a mixture of positional and geometric isomers (Teneva-Angelova et al, 2018). Dietary CFAs triggered great interest in the last decades with isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and conjugated linolenic acid (CLNA) being the target of numerous studies due to their bioactive potential (Andrade et al, 2017;Hennessy et al, 2016).…”

Probiotics in Functional Foods: Survival Assessment and Approaches for Improved Viability

“…The most studied and implemented probiotic microorganisms belong to the group of lactic acid bacteria, bifidobacteria, and yeasts [19]. Strains of Streptococcus and Enterococcus are also in use.…”

Isolation and Identification of Dominant Bacteria from Raw Donkey Milk Produced in a Region of Morocco by QIIME 2 and Evaluation of Their Antibacterial Activity

“…In addition, these germs represent a potential source of several metabolites with antimicrobial and antifungal activities like organic acids [ 9 ], reuterin, hydrogen peroxide, diacetyl [ 5 ] carbon dioxide, and bacteriocins [ 10 – 13 ]. They are present in different microbial biotopes such as soil, plants, the digestive system of human, and dairy products [ 14 , 15 ].…”

“…In addition, these germs represent a potential source of several metabolites with antimicrobial and antifungal activities like organic acids [9], reuterin, hydrogen peroxide, diacetyl [5] carbon dioxide, and bacteriocins [10][11][12][13]. ey are present in different microbial biotopes such as soil, plants, the digestive system of human, and dairy products [14,15]. Among these dairy products, we chose donkey milk (DM), which has attracted scientists' attention because of its convincing nutritive and functional elements [16,17].…”
