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.Item Technology and safety assessment for lactic acid bacteria isolated from traditional Bulgarian fermented meat product “lukanka”(Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2017-05-11) Todorov, Svetoslav Dimitrov; Nero, Luis Augusto; Ivanova, Iskra Vitanova; Stojanovski, Saso; Iliev, Ilia; Moncheva, PenkaThe present work discusses the technological and new selection criteria that should be included for selecting lactic acid bacteria for production of fermented meat. Lactic acid bacteria isolated from Bulgarian traditional fermented “lulanka” salami was studied regarding some positive technological parameters (growth at different temperature, pH, and proteolytic activity). The presence of genes related to the virulence factors, production of biogenic amines, and vancomycin resistance were presented in low frequency in the studied lactic acid bacteria. On the other hand, production of antimicrobial peptides and high spread of bacteriocin genes were broadly presented. Very strong activity against L. monocytogenes was detected in some of the studied lactic acid bacteria. In addition, the studied strains did not present any antimicrobial activity against tested closely related bacteria such as Lactobacillus spp., Lactococcus spp., Enterococcus spp. or Pediococcus spp. To our knowledge this is the first study on the safety and antimicrobial properties of lactic acid bacteria isolated from Bulgarian lukanka obtained by spontaneous fermentation.
