“…The observed growth properties in the presence of pancreatin makes the adaptivity of the tested strains highly possible in these conditions. Khagwal et al [64] reported a resistance to the presence of pancreatin in a concentration of 0.5% for all tested LAB strains in their study. The growth dynamic in the presence of bile salts were assessed to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of bile salts on the studied strains (Figure 3).…”

Lactic acid bacteria are widely studied microorganisms and are one of the prevalent groups of bacteria in the oral cavity microbiome. This work aimed to isolate new lactic acid bacterial strains from the human oral cavity and evaluate their characteristics and probiotic potential. Twelve strains were isolated and identified as belonging to several genera in the family Lactobacillaceae. Screening for antimicrobial activity was held, where two of the strains showed antagonistic activity against Streptococcus mutans and most of the strains expressed inhibition against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus cereus. The ability of the studied strains to autoaggregate and bind to mucin was assessed, showing autoaggregative properties and mucin binding at 5 logs CFU/mL. The survival ability in simulated oral and gastrointestinal conditions and growth dynamics with different gastrointestinal stress factors was studied. Most of the strains showed a good growth potential in the presence of oral and gastrointestinal stress factors. All tested strains exhibited high survival rates in the simulated oral environment, thus having the potential for colonizing the oral cavity and their beneficial properties to be applied. These results are a good basis for continuing the research into these strains so they can be included in new functional products for oral health.

Lactobacillus plantarum has beneficial effects on the reduction of symptoms of poor lactose digestion and hypercholesterolemia, removal of the duration and severity of diarrheal processes, improvement of the intestinal permeability barrier, prevention of some types of cancer by adsorption or inactivation of genotoxic agents, increased resistance to intestinal and extraintestinal infections, attenuation of inflammatory bowel disease, and prevention of allergies (especially food). On the other hand, carao (Cassia grandis) has shown remarkable nutritious content with influential dietary applications. As a result, this investigation aimed to explore the effect of Cassia grandis pulp on viability of Lactobacillus plantarum under gastrointestinal conditions, immunomodulatory capacity, and probiotic potential. Adding carao to the medium under different experimental conditions, including rich and minimal culture media and a gastrointestinal digestion process of skimmed milk, did not substantially affect Lactobacillus plantarum’s growth but prolonged its viability. The administration of Lactobacillus plantarum with carao in mice did not induce a proinflammatory response at a systemic level. Still, it did cause an increase in the production of immunoregulatory cytokines. Also, the viability of TSB broth was improved by adding carao. Carao improved the growth of acid tolerance, bile tolerance, growth in TSB broth, and NaCl resistance. According to the results, carao may enhance the characteristics of L. plantarum when enriching fermented dairy products.
