Probiotic characterization of Lactobacillus brevis KU15153 showing antimicrobial and antioxidant effect isolated from kimchi.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Lactobacillus brevis KU15153 was isolated from kimchi and probiotic characterization was performed including analysis of its antimicrobial and antioxidant effects. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) was used as a probiotic control. L. brevis KU15153 survived under artificial gastric conditions and was non-hemolytic, showed antibiotic susceptibility, and did not produce carcinogenic ?-glucuronidase. L. brevis KU15153 adhered strongly to HT-29 cells in the direct adherent assay and showed high cell surface hydrophobicity. Particularly, L. brevis KU15153 showed antimicrobial activity against the food-borne pathogens Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 15313, Salmonella Typhimurium P99, and Staphylococcus aureus KCCM 11335. Antioxidant activity was assessed using the DPPH radical scavenging assay and ?-carotene and linoleic acid inhibition assay. L. brevis KU15153 showed higher antioxidant activity than LGG. These results suggest that L. brevis KU15153 has potential for use as a probiotic organism.
