Item Protocols for the isolation and detection of lactic acid bacteria with bacteriocinogenic potential(LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2010-11) Moraes, Paula Mendonça; Perin, Luana Martins Perin; Ortolani, Maria Beatriz Tassinari; Yamazi, Anderson Keizo; Viçosa, Gabriela Nogueira; Nero, Luís AugustoThe objective of this study was to evaluate culture media and methodologies for isolation and detection of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) capable to produce bacteriocin-like substances. Samples of milk and cheese were pour plated on de Mann-Rogosa-Sharpe agar (MRS) and Kang-Fung-Sol agar (KFS) (both at 35 °C/48 h, under anaerobiosis), from which 389 and 256 LAB cultures were selected. The antagonistic activity of them was evaluated using the spot-on-the-lawn and two culture media: brain-heart infusion agar with catalase (BHI + C) and M17 (both at 35 °C/24 h). The proteinaceous nature of the antagonistic cultures was verified using: spot-on-the-lawn (MRS, 25 °C/24 h, under anaerobiosis) and well-diffusion (cultures amplified on modified MRS broth at 25 °C/24 h, and then neutralized using NaOH). Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644 was used as indicator. A larger number of antagonist cultures were isolated from MRS (83 by M17 and 65 by BHI + C) in comparison to KFS (24 by M17 and 15 by BHI + C). The spot-on-the-lawn identified a higher frequency of LAB capable of producing bacteriocin-like substances. MRS was considered to be the best culture media for the isolation of LAB capable to produce bacteriocin-like substances, activity that was better identified using the spot-on-the-lawn methodology.Item Virulence, antibiotic resistance and biogenic amines of bacteriocinogenic lactococci and enterococci isolated from goat milk(International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2014-06-12) Perin, Luana Martins; Miranda, Rodrigo Otávio; Todorov, Svetoslav Dimitrov; Franco, Bernadette Dora Gombossy de Melo; Nero, Luís AugustoThe present study aimed to investigate the virulence, antibiotic resistance and biogenic amine production in bacteriocinogenic lactococci and enterococci isolated from goat milk in order to evaluate their safety. Twenty-nine bacteriocinogenic lactic acid bacteria (LAB: 11 Lactococcus spp., and 18 Enterococcus spp.) isolated from raw goat milk were selected and subjected to PCR to identify gelE, cylA, hyl, asa1, esp, efaA, ace, vanA, vanB, hdc1, hdc2, tdc and odc genes. The expression of virulence factors (gelatinase, hemolysis, lipase, DNAse, tyramine, histamine, putrescine) in different incubation temperatures was assessed by phenotypic methods, as well as the resistance to vancomycin, gentamicin, chloramphenicol, ampicillin and rifampicin (using Etest®). The tested isolates presented distinct combinations of virulence related genes, but not necessarily the expression of such factors. The relevance of identifying virulence-related genes in bacteriocinogenic LAB was highlighted, demanding for care in their usage as starter cultures or biopreservatives due to the possibility of horizontal gene transfer to other bacteria in food systems.Item Genetic diversity and some aspects of antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria isolated from goat milk(Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2015-01-31) Cavicchioli, Valéria Quintana; Dornellas, Wesley dos Santos; Perin, Luana Martins; Pieri, Fábio Alessandro; Franco, Bernadette Dora Gombossy de Melo; Todorov, Svetoslav Dimitrov; Nero, Luís AugustoLactic acid bacteria (LAB, n = 57) were previously obtained from raw goat milk, identified as Lactococcus spp. (n = 24) and Enterococcus spp. (n = 33), and characterized as bacteriocinogenic. Fingerprinting by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) demonstrated high genetic diversity, and 30 strains were selected and exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against 46 target strains (LAB, spoilage, and foodborne pathogens). Six strains (Lactococcus lactis: GLc03 and GLc05; and Enterococcus durans: GEn09, GEn12, GEn14, and GEn17) were selected to characterize their bacteriocinogenic features, using Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644 as the target. The six strains produced bacteriocins at higher titer when incubated in MRS at 37 °C up to 12 h, when compared to growth at 25 and 30 °C. The produced bacteriocins kept their antimicrobial activity after exposure to 100 °C for 2 h and 121 °C for 20 min; the antimicrobial activity was also observed after treatment at pH 2.0 to 10.0, except for GLc03. L. monocytogenes populations were reduced approximately two logs after treatment with cell-free supernatants from the selected strains. These data show that goat milk can contain a diverse microbiota able to inhibit L. monocytogenes, a common pathogen found in dairy products, and can be potentially employed in biopreservation of food produced under different processing conditions.Item Inhibition of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and poliovirus (PV-1) by bacteriocins from lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis and enterococcus durans strains isolated from goat milk(International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2017-04-05) Cavicchioli, Valéria Quintana; Carvalho, Otávio Valério de; Paiva, Janine Cerqueira de; Todorov, Svetoslav Dimitrov; Silva Júnior, Abelardo; Nero, Luís AugustoBacteriocins have unusual inhibitory activity, including antiviral properties, and this can be exploited to give alternative applications. Semi–purified bacteriocins of six lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from goat milk (two Lactococcus lactis: GLc03 and GLc05, and four Enterococcus durans: GEn09, GEn12, GEn14 and GEn17) were tested for cytotoxicity in Vero cells (50% Cytotoxicity Concentration: CC50), and for their antiviral activities against herpes simplex virus 1 (HVS-1) and poliovirus (PV-1). Semi-purified bacteriocins presented low cytotoxicity, with CC50 varying from 256.2 µg/mL (GLc05) to 1084.5 µg/mL (GEn14). CC10 was determined for all isolates (GLc03: 36.9 µg/mL; GLc05: 51.2 µg/mL; GEn09: 88.1 µg/mL; GEn12: 99.9 µg/mL; GEn14: 275 µg/mL; and GEn17: 62.2 µg/mL) and considered for antiviral activity assays. Antiviral activity before virus adsorption was recorded against PV-1 for GLc05 (4.9%), GEn09 (3.4%), GEn12 (24.7%) and GEn17 (23.5%), and against HSV-1 for GEn12 (27.9%), GEn14 (58.7%) and GEn17 (39.2%). Antiviral activity after virus adsorption was identified against PV-1 for GLc05 (32.7%), GEn09 (91.0%), GEn12 (93.7%) and GEn17 (57.2%), and against HSV-1 for GEn17 (71.6%). The results obtained indicate the potential of some bacteriocins, particularly those produced by E. durans strains investigated in the present study, in viral inhibition and their application as new antiviral agents.
