Summary: | Background and Aim: Probiotics are useful bacteria which, after being
consumed, leave useful effects on human health. The present study was conducted to examine the
antimicrobial effect of Lactobacillus
paracasei on
pathogenic bacteria, especially on Staphylococcus aureus in the field of food microbiology. Materials and Methods: In this study, the effect of Lactobacillus paracasei isolated from
yoghurt (1×108 cfu/ml) on the
growth of Staphylococcus aureus (1×105 cfu/ml)
was assessed at two different temperatures of 25 °C and 35°C in TSB. Then, samples from cocultures and control
were pour plated in Baird Parker agar and MRS agar to compute the number of S.
aureus and Lactobacillus paracasei at 0, 24, 48, 72 hours after incubation.
Then, enterotoxin production was evaluated by ELIZA rida screen kit. The data
were investigated by ANOVA and K-square (chi-square) tests. Results: It was found that compared to controls, Lactobacillus
paracasei inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and reduced the number
of S. aureus cells about 3 logs in 25°C and 2 logs in 35°C. The production of A, C, and E enterotoxins was
inhibited by S. aureus at a temperature of 25°C according to ELIZA rida screen test. The figure was
35°C for enterotoxins
E and A. Conclusion: Probiotics can be used as a new approach for the
biocontrol of S. aureus without using antibiotics. |
